When a face so beautiful it was almost bewitching came into view, Gu Fei's gaze could not help but freeze for a moment.
At this moment, Medusa Queen's graceful body was wrapped in a luxurious, expensive purple brocade robe.
Her voluptuous, curvaceous figure radiated a seductive allure.
Those pair of narrow, pale violet eyes shimmered with an inborn charm, almost capable of drawing in every man's gaze.
Beneath the purple brocade robe, a section of purple snake tail was exposed, lazily swaying and exuding a wild, exotic charm.
At this moment, Medusa Queen's beautiful eyes were fixed tightly on the green flames within the small pool.
After silently watching the green flames for a long while, Medusa Queen suddenly let out a soft sigh. She raised her head to look at the sky, then slowly rose to her feet with her fiery figure.
"It's time..."
Murmuring softly, Medusa Queen revealed two snow-white wrists from beneath her purple brocade robe, her slender hands slowly forming several Hand Seals before her.
As the Hand Seals in Medusa Queen's hands shifted, the Crystal Lotus Seat suddenly trembled violently.
Freed from its restraints, the green flames transformed into a blazing inferno in the blink of an eye.
Medusa Queen lightly bit her red lips, her jade-like hands slowly undoing the fastenings of her brocade robe.
Then, a flawless jade body that seemed like a masterpiece crafted by the heavens was laid completely bare within the Bamboo Forest.
Gu Fei's breathing grew slightly hurried, his blood surging.
The sight before him was simply too alluring. Even though he had no such intentions, he could not avoid a natural physical reaction.
A blinding radiance bloomed from Medusa Queen's naked body, continuously expanding and contracting, accompanied by a roar.
Gu Fei was not disturbed by the intense light. He closed his eyes and used his soul power to sense everything happening around him.
He clearly saw a massive purple serpent, over thirty meters long, floating in the sky above that small island.
The purple serpent's body was slender and powerful, faintly possessing an elegant beauty. Its pale violet pupils lacked the savagery of the Snake-People Gu Fei had encountered before, instead carrying a trace of tranquility and indifference.
Throughout this, Gu Fei merely watched Medusa Queen quietly with lowered eyes and did not interrupt her.
Since Medusa Queen had chosen this path, she would either be reduced to ashes or evolve into a Seven-Colored Sky Swallowing Python.
When the time came, regardless of the outcome, Gu Fei would be able to claim the Green Lotus Core Flame.
While Medusa Queen was evolving, a chaotic battle was taking place within the Snake-People Tribe's holy city.
Amid their melee with the Snake-People, Gu He, Yun Yun, and their group had charged into Medusa Holy City, struggling to search everywhere for traces of the Heavenly Flames.
Gu He was sensitive to the aura of Heavenly Flames, but unlike Gu Fei, he could not easily distinguish which aura was genuine.
They could only search blindly while carving a bloody path through the holy city filled with Snake-People.
The densely packed Snake-People seemed impossible to kill completely. The moment they slaughtered one group, another would emerge from corners and shadows.
Gu He sharply realized that these Snake-People were likely stalling for time!
They were probably waiting for reinforcements from the Snake-People Tribe's experts!
Realizing things were bad, Gu He immediately shouted, "If we still can't find the Heavenly Flames, we'll withdraw at once!"
But in the next moment, Yun Yun glanced westward. "Too late. Judging by this aura, it's probably another commander from one of the Eight Great Tribes."
At her words, Gu He and the others' expressions changed slightly.
On the western horizon, a red figure was flying toward the city like lightning.
About a minute later, a male Snake-Person completely shrouded in red Dou Qi flashed into view above the city.
His gaze swept across the air before finally settling on Gu He and the others with a grim expression.
"Damnable humans, you actually dared enter my tribe's holy city!"
"This fellow is Yan Ci, the leader of the Flame Snake Tribe among the Eight Great Tribes. Though his temper is extremely explosive, his strength ranks among the best of the Eight Great Tribes' leaders. He's a very troublesome opponent."
Someone in Gu He's group said helplessly, frowning as they looked at the suddenly appearing Snake-Person.
Hearing this, Gu He frowned and swept his gaze over the other party. "By this count, they already have three Dou Wangs."
Although Gu He had prepared thoroughly, facing so many Snake-People Tribe experts still made him feel considerable pressure.
Meanwhile, after the purple serpent set up an energy barrier, it circled through the sky several times and let out a clear, low cry.
Then, without hesitation, the giant serpent plunged headfirst into the mass of green flames.
Miserable screams continuously rang out from within the Heavenly Flames. Only after nearly half an hour of high-pitched cries did they gradually weaken within the green flames.
By then, the purple serpent's body, once covered in beautiful purple scales, had been charred black.
Its body, once over thirty meters long, had been burned down to barely six or seven meters. It was hard to imagine how many bones and how much blood within that body had been destroyed by the Heavenly Flames.
Gu Fei watched closely from the side and could not help sighing inwardly.
Medusa Queen's willpower was truly extraordinary. She could actually endure such torment.
If it had been him, he feared he would have found it difficult to endure such pain.
The charred giant snake that had stiffened and collapsed onto the ground was slowly shedding its blackened outer skin, as though something were about to burst out from within.
Suddenly, a seven-colored streak shot out from it.
Gu Fei saw it clearly.
What appeared before him was a slender little snake barely two centimeters long.
Its entire body was covered in tiny seven-colored scales, and its pale violet snake eyes carried a faintly bewitching air.
A strange, fresh fragrance lingered around its body. Though it was now only in snake form, it still exuded elegance and nobility.
Though the little snake did not look particularly fierce, it was almost excessively beautiful.
The Seven-Colored Little Snake did not possess many sharp offensive features.
Yet Gu Fei knew that its tiny body contained terrifying power that even Dou Emperor experts would not dare underestimate.
Gu Fei gave it an interested glance before turning his gaze toward the azure flame.
He took out the Green Lotus Seat and tossed it over. The Green Lotus Seat slowly drew the Green Lotus Core Flame back into its lotus heart.
At once, an eerie azure flame rose from the previously empty center of the lotus.
After collecting the Green Lotus Core Flame and placing it into his Storage Ring, Gu Fei looked at the Seven-Colored Little Snake.
The little snake was looking at him as well, already eagerly rubbing against his trouser leg.
Seeing the rather adorable little thing, Gu Fei reached out and tucked it into his sleeve.
However, the Seven-Colored Little Snake crawled out from his sleeve, wrapped itself around his arm, and lightly rubbed against his wrist as though acting spoiled.
It let out faint hissing sounds. When it saw that Gu Fei was not looking at it, it rubbed against him again.
Because Gu Fei was the first person the Seven-Colored Little Snake had seen, in its eyes, this strange Snake Race creature with limbs that walked on two legs was like family.
The little snake's violet eyes met Gu Fei's.
The Seven-Colored Sky Swallowing Python felt curious. Emotion Value +50
