Queen Medusa Appears!

The six Dou Ling experts behind him charged out at once.

The six men lunged at Xiao Xuan from different directions, their Dou Qi erupting simultaneously. Their six auras intertwined, whipping up a fierce gale.

Xiao Xuan did not stop walking.

Only when the six men reached him did he raise his right hand and strike with his palm.

The force of the palm exploded, sending the three Dou Ling experts in front flying backward at the same time.

They crashed heavily to the ground, spitting blood, and never moved again.

The remaining three froze.

They stopped and stared at the three corpses on the ground, their faces turning deathly pale.

One palm strike. With a single palm strike, three Dou Ling experts had died.

The three exchanged glances, their eyes filled with terror.

But they had already charged forward. Retreating would mean death as well.

Gritting their teeth, the three men mobilized all the Dou Qi in their bodies and lunged at Xiao Xuan together.

Xiao Xuan shook his head.

He raised his hand and struck with his palm.

Bang.

The three men were sent flying at once.

When they hit the ground, mouthful after mouthful of blood poured from their mouths. Their eyes closed, and they never moved again.

Six Dou Ling experts, all killed with two palm strikes.

Fourth Elder stared at the six corpses on the ground, his entire body going rigid.

These six men had been the strongest fighters under his command, yet before this human youth, they could not even withstand two moves.

Fourth Elder raised his head and looked at Xiao Xuan, his eyes full of shock.

"You..."

Xiao Xuan looked at him without speaking.

Fourth Elder's chest heaved violently.

He was an elder of the Snake-People Tribe, a Dou Wang-level expert. Within the Snake-People Tribe, no one besides the queen was his match.

He refused to believe it. He refused to believe that he could not defeat a human youth barely in his teens.

"Human brat, you're courting death."

Fourth Elder activated the Dou Qi within him, unleashing the aura of a Dou Wang expert without restraint.

With a kick off the ground, he shot toward Xiao Xuan.

He thrust out his palm, its force countless times stronger than Yue Mei's.

He had put every ounce of his strength into this strike.

Xiao Xuan watched him charge over, his expression unchanged.

He raised his hand and struck with his palm.

Bang.

Fourth Elder was sent flying backward and slammed heavily onto the ground.

He spat out a huge mouthful of blood as a sharp pain shot through his chest.

Looking down, he saw that several of his ribs had been broken.

Fourth Elder lay prone on the ground, staring at Xiao Xuan with utter shock in his eyes.

He was a Dou Wang expert. Within the Snake-People Tribe, no one besides the queen was his match.

Yet before this human youth, he could not even withstand a single move.

Even Fourth Elder's voice trembled.

"You... what is your true strength?"

Xiao Xuan did not answer.

He withdrew his hand, turned around, and continued forward.

As Yue Mei watched Xiao Xuan's retreating figure, a wave of fear rose in her heart.

This human youth was far stronger than Fourth Elder.

Who exactly was he?

Yue Mei murmured to herself inwardly.

The Snake-People Tribe's Temple.

Inside the main hall, several elders sat around a stone table, waiting for word from Fourth Elder.

Grand Elder lightly tapped his fingers against the table, the rhythm growing faster and faster.

Second Elder looked at him. "Grand Elder, there's no need to worry. Fourth Elder took six Dou Ling experts with him. There should not be any problem."

Grand Elder shook his head. "I keep having a bad feeling about this."

Just as Third Elder was about to speak, the doors to the hall were pushed open.

A snake-person warrior staggered inside.

"Grand Elder, something terrible has happened."

Grand Elder abruptly rose to his feet. "What happened?"

"Fourth Elder... Fourth Elder was injured by someone."

Even the snake-person's voice was trembling.

Grand Elder's expression changed instantly. "Who did it?"

"A human youth, around fifteen or sixteen years old."

The snake-person warrior said, "He injured Fourth Elder, killed six Dou Ling experts, and is now coming toward the Temple."

The hall fell deathly silent.

The elders exchanged glances, their eyes filled with shock.

Six Dou Ling experts and Fourth Elder had all been defeated.

Just what level of strength did that youth possess?

Second Elder rose to his feet. "Impossible. Fourth Elder is a Dou Wang-level expert. How could he be injured by a fifteen- or sixteen-year-old youth?"

The snake-person lowered his head, not daring to speak.

Grand Elder drew a deep breath. "Come. Let's go take a look."

The elders all stood and headed outside the hall.

The moment they stepped through the doors, they saw a youth approaching from the distance.

His pace was unhurried, and his face bore no expression.

The elders' expressions changed at once.

Grand Elder fixed his gaze on Xiao Xuan, his eyes filled with hostility.

"Human, you injured members of my Snake-People Tribe and trespassed into our Temple. You've got quite the nerve."

Xiao Xuan stopped and looked at them. "I want to see your queen."

Second Elder let out a cold laugh. "See the queen? What are you supposed to be? What makes you worthy of seeing our queen?"

Third Elder spoke as well. "A human brat dares to barge into the Temple of the Snake-People Tribe. You truly don't know the meaning of death."

Grand Elder waved his hand. "No need to waste words on him. Take him down."

The elders exchanged glances and activated the Dou Qi within their bodies at the same time.

The auras of four Dou Wang-level experts intertwined, stirring up a violent gale.

Grand Elder attacked first, striking his palm toward Xiao Xuan.

Second Elder lunged from the left, Third Elder flanked him from the right, and Fifth Elder attacked from behind.

The four men sealed off every avenue of retreat around Xiao Xuan.

Xiao Xuan stood where he was without moving.

Only when the four attacks were about to land on him did he raise his right hand and strike with his palm.

Bang.

Grand Elder was sent flying backward, crashing heavily onto the ground and spitting out blood.

Second Elder was sent flying as well, landing beside Grand Elder.

Third Elder and Fifth Elder did not escape either.

All four lay on the ground, blood pouring from their mouths.

They struggled to get up, but their bodies would not obey them at all.

Grand Elder lay prone on the ground, staring at Xiao Xuan with shock filling his eyes.

He possessed the strength of Dou Wang Peak. In the Snake-People Tribe, aside from the queen, he was the strongest.

Yet before this human youth, he could not even withstand one move.

Second Elder's voice trembled. "You... who exactly are you?"

Xiao Xuan looked at them without saying a word.

At that moment, a voice came from deep within the hall.

"Enough."

The voice was cold and carried a hint of authority.

The elders' expressions changed at once.

Xiao Xuan raised his head and looked deep into the hall.

A woman slowly emerged.

She wore a long crimson dress. Her features were exquisite, and her bearing was cold and aloof.

A faintly bewitching light gleamed in her narrow eyes.

Queen Medusa.
