The newcomer was bald.
His aura was also at the Dou Huang Peak—the Snake People Clan's Grand Commander.
"Kui Xing?!"
Xiao Ding and the others, who had already been settled aboard the Flying Boat by Dan Chen, spotted the newcomer from afar.
They thought of the Snake People Clan's Grand Commander, whose ferocious reputation resounded throughout the desert.
They had assumed Medusa was the only Dou Huang Peak expert. Who would have thought another had come?
Could Lord Shen handle him?
Behind Shen Wen, Cao Ying and Dan Chen both showed traces of concern in their eyes.
Cao Ying transmitted her voice, "We'll deal with this bald Snake Person!"
"It's fine!"
Shen Wen shook his head. Now, even two Dou Huang Peak experts could be suppressed at his whim.
Kui Xing glared furiously at Shen Wen. His voice rang like a great bell as he demanded, "Who are you? How dare you injure my Queen! Give me your life!"
He had originally been patrolling a nearby area when he first sensed Medusa fiercely battling someone.
Then he saw the Pill Lightning blanketing Stone Desert City. Worried for the Queen's safety, he immediately rushed over at full speed regardless of the cost.
Never in his wildest dreams had he expected this.
The moment he arrived at the battlefield, he saw Medusa being blasted back by Shen Wen's punch, and rage instantly surged into his heart.
Before his words had even faded.
Dou Qi erupted from Kui Xing's body like a volcano. Green light coiled around him, carrying an icy, fishy stench.
His fists clenched tightly as he threw a plain, unadorned punch. His powerful Dou Qi condensed into an enormous gray-white energy Giant Python, which bared its fangs and hissed through the air as it lunged fiercely at Shen Wen!
Faced with this sudden attack, Shen Wen's gaze turned cold.
He had intended to negotiate with Medusa, but some clueless fool had appeared out of nowhere.
"Where did this idiot come from? Courting death!"
Shen Wen snorted coldly. Facing the roaring gray-white energy Giant Python, he stood still as a mountain while brilliant azure light burst forth from his right arm once more.
The Azure Dragon Membrane beneath his skin shimmered, faintly revealing tangible scale patterns as arcs of lightning danced between the phantom dragon scales.
With a slight stomp, he shot forward like an arrow loosed from a bow, charging straight at Kui Xing.
The five fingers of his right hand curled into a claw as azure light and lightning frantically gathered. A primordial, tyrannical will capable of tearing the heavens and shaking the earth soared into the sky!
"You asked who I am? I'm Shen Wen! Azure Dragon Sky-Tearing Hand!"
His furious roar was like a dragon's cry echoing across the heavens, making everyone's eardrums ache!
The dragon claw covered in phantom azure scales and destructive lightning suddenly thrust forward!
"Riiip—!"
There was no expected explosive boom, only the piercing sound of cloth being forcibly torn apart!
The gray-white energy Giant Python unleashed by Kui Xing with all his strength.
The instant it came into contact with the Azure Dragon Sky-Tearing Hand, it was like a fragile illusion, torn apart from the middle by the dragon claw!
Before the violent energy could fully spread, the tyrannical force and lightning wrapped around the dragon claw instantly scattered and annihilated it into nothingness!
The Azure Dragon Sky-Tearing Hand did not slow, carrying an unstoppable force.
Before Kui Xing's eyes, which shifted from fury to utter horror in an instant, it slammed solidly into the arms he had crossed before himself in defense!
"Crack! Crack! Crack—!"
A dense series of scalp-numbing bone cracks rang out like exploding beans!
"Aah!! My arms—!"
Kui Xing let out a heart-wrenching scream. Before the Azure Dragon Sky-Tearing Hand, his arms were as fragile as dead branches. From wrist to shoulder blade, every inch of bone shattered into pieces!
Flesh and blood mangled, pale shards of bone and blood sprayed everywhere!
The piercing agony and terror of death drove Kui Xing completely mad.
He no longer dared hold anything back. The Dou Qi in his body and the Demonic Beast soul within his own soul burned simultaneously.
His body rapidly swelled, twisted, and transformed as he flew backward!
In the blink of an eye.
An enormous Giant Python over thirty zhang long appeared in the air, its entire body gray-white, its scales rough as stone, and a twisted horn growing from its head!
A Rock Bone Poison Python!
After revealing his true form, his aura was chaotic due to his severe injuries.
Yet his ferocity only grew more overwhelming. His lantern-sized snake eyes turned blood-red as he opened his bloody maw.
Amid a thick, fishy gale and poisonous mist, he frantically bit toward Shen Wen, intending to tear him to pieces!
"Still refusing to learn."
Shen Wen's voice was cold.
Facing that savage maw rushing to swallow him, his body flashed like lightning. With a single flicker, he precisely evaded the bite and appeared at the middle of the Giant Python's body.
The next moment.
Under the gazes of countless stunned onlookers below.
He reached out and seized the end of the Rock Bone Poison Python's tail, which was thicker than a water vat!
"Up you go!"
Shen Wen shouted as the strength within his body exploded.
That massive python body weighing tens of thousands of jin was actually swung up by one of his arms, creating a scene of extreme contrast in strength!
Then, an utterly brutal "performance" began!
Like he was wielding a huge, living Whip.
Shen Wen gripped the gray-white Giant Python Kui Xing had transformed into, using its enormous body as a weapon.
He smashed it into the desert again and again, mercilessly and violently!
"Boom!!!"
"Bang!!!"
"Booom—!!!"
The deafening impacts continued without end, making the entire Eastern Region of the Tagor Desert tremble.
Every intimate encounter between the Giant Python's body and the ground.
Triggered a small earthquake, blasting sand into the sky and leaving behind a terrifying bottomless crater over ten zhang wide.
At first, the Giant Python still let out furious and agonized hisses.
It twisted and struggled madly, but after more than a dozen consecutive savage slams, its hissing quickly weakened into powerless whimpers before finally falling completely silent.
The hard gray-white scales across its body shattered and fell away in large patches, exposing the mangled flesh beneath.
The sounds of breaking bones rang out as densely as firecrackers.
Blood sprayed from countless wounds like waterfalls, dyeing dozens of massive craters and the surrounding sand a glaring dark red.
In less than a minute.
Shen Wen had used this once-arrogant Dou Emperor Giant Python to forcibly create a devastated stretch of desert that looked as though it had been struck by a meteor shower.
He had smashed out dozens of huge, scattered craters!
When Shen Wen finally stopped.
He casually threw the unconscious Kui Xing, who had reverted to human form and was limp as mud, onto the edge of one of the craters.
The entire battlefield fell into deathly silence.
Only the howling wind swept up sand and dust tinged with the smell of blood.
Shen Wen slowly turned around and calmly looked at Medusa, whose face was pale as paper and whose delicate body was even trembling slightly.
He lightly brushed off dust that did not exist on his robes, then spoke slowly in an indifferent tone:
"Now, can we discuss the ownership of the Heavenly Flames?"
"And... Her Majesty the Queen, you wouldn't want the Snake People Clan to be wiped out, would you?"
Medusa's delicate body trembled almost imperceptibly.
Shen Wen's words cut more deeply than the sharpest blade. Her alluring pale-purple eyes stared fixedly at Shen Wen.
Rage, unwillingness, humiliation, and terror that even she herself refused to acknowledge—countless complicated emotions intertwined and battered her mind.
