Everything Depends on Little Friend Yang Shan!

Inside the house specially arranged for VIPs by the Serpent-People tribe, Lu Man was applying ointment to the Eight-Winged Black Serpent Emperor.

Lu Man couldn't help but sneer, "I never thought you'd end up like this!"

The Eight-Winged Black Serpent Emperor said in a deep voice:

"Hmph! I've fallen for that brat's trick!"

Lu Man: "And then what? Now I'm forced to agree to that kid's demands!"

The Eight-Winged Black Serpent Emperor: "Actually, agreeing to that kid's offer isn't so bad. The Serpent-People tribe doesn't dare challenge my Heavenly Serpent Mansion, and we'll still have the Spirit Stone Mine! I can also take this opportunity to get close to Medusa, hehe."

Lu Man couldn't help but punch the Eight-Winged Black Serpent Emperor:

"Even at a time like this, you're still thinking about Medusa! Just wait, it won't be long before your fearsome reputation as the Eight-Winged Black Serpent Emperor becomes a joke! Peak Sixth Tier Thousand Beast King was almost killed by a One Star Dou Huang!"

This time, the Eight-Winged Black Serpent Emperor did not refute Lu Man, but said in a low voice, "If it weren't for the background of the Heavenly Serpent Mansion, I might have really been made into soup by that kid."

Lu Man was furious. "Let's see if you dare to be so arrogant next time!"

The Eight-Winged Black Serpent Emperor, "Stop blaming me. That kid is really strange. He's so fast that I can't even keep up. He's surrounded by Heavenly Flames and lightning, and he has a terrifying Dou Technique that I can't even understand. His Dou Qi Reserve are ridiculously high. He practically wore me down to the point of near death! I can't hit him, and I can't escape. Sigh."

Lu Man ponders:

"White Fang, do you remember what the Residence Master once said? There are some forces in the Northwest Continent that you should never provoke, including Jia Nan Academy! Although Jia Nan Academy only has one Two-Star Dou Zong on the surface, that elusive dean is very likely a Dou Zun level expert!"

The Eight-Winged Black Serpent Emperor shuddered. "You mean, that kid obtained the Dou Zun inheritance?"

White Fang: "Heaven and Earth Oddities are extremely rare, and even if you encounter one, refining it is a matter of life and death. This kid is only One Star Dou Huang, yet he possesses two Heaven and Earth Oddities. If it weren't for the inheritance of Dou Zun, I can't think of any other reason!"

Lu Man: "So what do you mean?"

White Fang: "There are no eternal enemies. We don't have any deep-seated hatred for that kid. If we continue to be at odds, and that kid goes to Central Plains and actually makes a name for himself, my Heavenly Serpent Mansion will be in big trouble!"

Lu Man: "Oh, not acting impulsively this time?"

White Fang said irritably, "Nonsense! I just think that kid is really powerful. Before he appeared, would you have thought that a One Star Dou Huang could survive against me?"

Lu Man Barbarian wholeheartedly agrees:

"That kid beats up Nine Star Dou Huang like he's a dog. I heard that Mu Tiger, the third of the Three Mulan Elders, was blown to the point of vomiting blood in the blink of an eye! Unless you can kill him in one go, it's better to be on good terms with him."

At this moment, the focus of Lu Man and White Fang's discussion was Yang Shan, who had single-handedly forced Mulan Valley to retreat, and who was communicating with Medusa Queen inside the Serpent-People Temple.

Yang Shan was with Yue Mei.

As the Great Commander, Yue Mei also had to report the situation to Medusa Queen.

"Waste!"

Medusa Queen's rebuke echoed within the temple, Yue Mei immediately prostrated herself on the ground. "Yue Mei knows her crime!"

Medusa Queen: "What are you talking to me about? You need to apologize to Little Friend Yang Shan!"

Yue Mei immediately turned to the side and lay prostrate on the ground.

"Please forgive me, Your Excellency!"

Yue Mei secretly glanced at Yang Shan and saw that Yang Shan looked very dissatisfied. Yue Mei was so frightened that she quickly shoved her forehead to the ground.

Yang Shan, meanwhile, was internally complaining:

"The angle is too low to see."

Medusa Queen: "Little Friend Yang Shan, please forgive Yue Mei this time for my sake."

Yang Shan: "It's a small problem. Your Majesty, just mention it in your Favor Record. Just say that I saved Yue Mei's life again!"

Medusa Queen was also somewhat helpless:

"Fine, I'll just write it."

Yue Mei's voice trembled:

"Thank you, Lord Zhenjun."

Yue Mei was also very bitter inside.

Yang Shan's previous plan was too risky for the Serpent-People tribe.

If anything goes wrong, those commanders will probably all perish in the camp in Mulan Valley.

Unable to make up her mind, Yue Mei asked Hua She'er to tell Medusa Queen about the plan so that she could decide.

Medusa Queen certainly didn't completely trust Yang Shan, so she secretly ordered Yue Mei to wait for the Rat Tide and Insect Tide to appear before leading her troops there.

While this approach is more stable, the returns are also much lower.

Yang Shan still felt somewhat helpless.

If Yue Mei is willing to listen to him, he should take half of yesterday's victory! Because he was the one who brought the Rat Tide and the Insect Tide.

As a result, the Serpent-People tribe performed poorly.

Yang Shan certainly knew this was Medusa's intention, but Yang Shan couldn't very well directly criticize Medusa Queen to her face, could he? So Yue Mei became the scapegoat.

Medusa Queen: "I know everything that happened yesterday. Thanks to Little Friend Yang Shan, otherwise the Serpent-People tribe would have been in grave danger!"

Yang Shan: "Stop with the pleasantries. I'm here to ask the Queen what she plans to do. Once Mu Tiger recovers, they'll most likely launch a full-scale attack, and I can't stop Dou Zong!"

Medusa Queen: "For now, my only option is to quickly break through to the Dou Zong to stabilize the situation. Until then..."

Yang Shan pretended to refuse:

"Don't count on me! I'm just a One Star Dou Huang after all!"

Medusa Queen: "I know, Little Friend Yang Shan, there is still one Dou Zong puppet that has not been used!"

Yang Shan: "My Dou Zong puppet has fought alongside me many times and is now in terrible condition!"

Medusa Queen remained silent for a moment.

After all, the enemy the Serpent-People tribe are facing this time is truly too strong.

"In fact, besides myself, my Serpent-People tribe has four elders at the level of Nine Star Dou Huang."

Medusa Queen confessed to Yang Shan:

"Little Friend Yang Shan, this is a critical moment for the life and death of my Serpent-People tribe. If Little Friend Yang Shan can help me protect the Spirit Stone Mine, I will reward you handsomely!"

Yang Shan: "What generous reward?"

Medusa Queen: "That depends on how much contribution Little Friend Yang Shan can make. Don't worry, Little Friend Yang Shan, I wouldn't be so unwise as to offend a future Seven-Rank Alchemist. Once I break through to the Dou Zong, I will repay all the favors owed to the Serpent-People tribe!"

Yang Shan thought to himself:

"Return it? Don't even think about it!"

In terms of investing in personal relationships, Yang Shan has always looked up to Ice Emperor Hai Bodong!

When Hai Bodong initially invested in "Players", the majority of the player community was still at the Dou Master level.

And now?

The help given to the Dou Master was rewarded with the Dou Ling, and even the Dou Wang!

Yang Shan is investing in Medusa at the Dou Huang Peak now, so it's perfectly reasonable for him to receive a return of Medusa at the Dou Zun level later! Yang Shan stood up:

"I'll do my best, but I'm only doing this because you, Medusa Queen, keep your promises. If it were anyone else, I really wouldn't bother with you!"

Having said that, Yang Shan flicked his sleeves and turned to leave.

Medusa Queen reminded:

"Aren't you going to follow them? Make sure you serve Yang Shan well!"

Medusa's previous plan was to "temporarily abandon the Spirit Stone Mine if all else fails."

However, the drawbacks of this approach are also obvious.

For Spirit Stone Mine to take shape, it generally takes at least three thousand years!

After it takes shape, the Spirit Stone Mine will continue to expand over time.

Assume the initial amount of Spirit Stone in the Spirit Stone Mine is "one billion".

If mining is carried out in a controlled manner over a period of hundreds of years, the Spirit Stone Mine may yield 1.5 billion or even more Spirit Stone until it is exhausted.

If Mulan Valley were to occupy the land, and knowing that the Serpent-People tribe would try to take it back, Mulan Valley would definitely choose to forcibly mine it day and night.

This is a huge loss for the Spirit Stone Mine!

But the combat power Yang Shan displayed yesterday even frightened Medusa! Medusa Queen knew very well how powerful the Eight-Winged Black Serpent Emperor was.

This lecherous man had lusted after her body, and she beat him up, but he escaped too quickly to catch up.

Yang Shan, a One Star Dou Huang, was able to suppress the Eight-Winged Black Serpent Emperor without giving him any temper.

Medusa compared herself to the character.

When she was One Star Dou Huang, she would definitely be easily manipulated by the Eight-Winged Black Serpent Emperor! Therefore, Medusa Queen also had some expectations.

What if Yang Shan manages to hold out? Due to the previous Rat Tide and beast tides, as well as the harassment from elite players of the three major guilds, Heaven Flame Alliance, Shu Xian Lou, and Hidden Thorn, the players of Mulan Valley were caught off guard.

The losses were severe.

But how could the players of the Mulan Empire remain calm? They directly challenged the Serpent-People tribe players on the forum, saying they would teach the Serpent-People tribe a lesson in the upcoming battle! The Serpent-People tribe players were equally unfazed.

Who's afraid of online flame wars?

The Battle Through the Heavens operations team was laughing so hard they were practically rolling on the floor watching the flame war escalate on the forum.

In fantasy MMORPGs, everything is decided by fists. What's the point if there aren't group fights? Fight! Fight hard! It would be best if all the players on both sides dropped seven or eight stars in level! The players from the Mulan Empire have already started to "share a common hatred." Unless they have an important mission, almost all of them have rushed to the Tagor Desert.

In a short time, it attracted a million players!

The Serpent-People tribe, at most, only has 700,000.

Yang Shan strolled around the camp in Mulan Valley.

This camp was much larger than before, with people coming and going, but no one noticed that the masked man who brushed past them was the only Dou Emperor player in the entire server!

Yang Shan, that Old Schemer, arrived at the camp in Mulan Valley almost without stopping after leaving the Serpent-People Temple.

In the original work, the "Three Beasts Desolate Wild Decree" has many wonderful uses, including healing.

Yang Shan wanted to find the Three Mulan Elders and, taking advantage of Mu Tiger's Mu Tiger, try to kill him directly.

In this way, Mulan Valley will absolutely not be able to pose any threat to the Serpent-People tribe in the short term.

But even after searching the entire camp, Yang Shan still couldn't figure out what was going on.

Yang Shan did not linger. After leaving the camp, he quickly flew to the Red Sand Continent.

At this moment, the Lord of the Red Sand Continent, the sixth-tier Thousand Beast King Red Tail Scorpion Beast, was crawling restlessly back and forth at the border.

When Yang Shan appeared in the distance, the Red Tail Scorpion Beast exclaimed excitedly:

"Blade Sovereign, you've finally returned, my precious egg!"

Yang Shan took out an egg from his Storage Ring: "Would I lie to you?"
