"Greetings, Your Majesty!"

At the sight of the bewitchingly beautiful Queen Medusa, the Snake People Race fell to their knees in neat unison, respectful and devout.

As for Gu He's side...

The atmosphere turned grave. The two Dou Wang experts, Yan Shi and Feng Li, subtly moved closer to the black-robed figure.

Queen Medusa's fearsome reputation was simply too great.

Among the Jia Ma Empire's ten greatest experts, quite a few had suffered badly at her hands.

Of everyone present, perhaps only the Misty Cloud Sect Leader could contend with her.

A trace of gravity flashed across Yun Yun's lovely face beneath her black robe.

If not for the mysterious senior's guidance during this period, she would have had almost no chance of defeating Queen Medusa.

But now, she could at least test herself against her.

"So this is Queen Medusa, whose fearsome name has spread throughout the desert..."

Beneath the yellow sand, Xiao Yan restrained his aura and did not even dare breathe too loudly.

The confrontation between a group of Dou Wang and even Dou Huang experts made the tip of his heart tremble faintly.

By the city wall.

Queen Medusa raised a slender hand, signaling the Snake People Race to rise.

Then, her enchanting pale violet eyes glanced sideways at Gu He and his group as she said blandly:

"You were looking for me?"

Gu He let out a breath, stepped forward a few paces, and cupped his hands. "I am Gu He. Greetings, Queen Medusa."

"Oh? Pill King Gu He?"

Queen Medusa's gaze swept over the black-robed figure behind Gu He, and she nodded. "As expected of a sixth-grade alchemist. You actually managed to invite a Dou Huang expert to accompany you."

"Heh. Speak. What do you want from me?"

She went straight to the point.

Gu He looked somewhat hesitant as he carefully weighed his words.

He was worried that a careless remark might touch Queen Medusa's reverse scale.

If that happened, things would likely not end peacefully today.

"I came for the Heavenly Flame in Your Majesty's possession."

Gu He's deep, steady voice echoed both inside and outside the city walls.

Everyone fell silent.

Only Xiao Yan, a hundred meters away, had intense excitement flash through his eyes as he thought, "Teacher, the Green Lotus Core Flame really is in Queen Medusa's hands!"

"But the opponents are too strong. Leaving Queen Medusa aside, Gu He brought so many experts with him. Can we really compete with them?"

Yao Lao spoke, "Having many opponents may be a good thing."

"The more chaotic the situation, the easier it will be for us to fish in troubled waters. Xiao Yan, you need to stay sharp from here on."

Under countless watching eyes, the corner of Queen Medusa's lips curled upward, making her already incomparably seductive face seem even more bewitching.

"I will not ask why you know that I possess a Heavenly Flame."

"But let me tell you this: do not even dream of obtaining the Heavenly Flame in my hands."

"I will give you five breaths. If you have not vanished from my sight after five breaths, then remain in this desert forever."

Deep within Queen Medusa's pale violet eyes, seven-colored light gradually burst forth as thoughts churned within her.

That mysterious black-robed man's words had indeed been true.

Since that was the case, there was no need to waste words on Gu He and the others.

She needed to fulfill her promise quickly.

Then she could continue her evolution.

Upon hearing Queen Medusa's icy words, Gu He and the others' expressions changed drastically.

Seeing her in person was nothing like the rumors.

This Queen Medusa truly radiated killing intent.

Gu He clenched his fists and said in a deep voice, "Your Majesty, there is no need to refuse so quickly."

"I am willing to exchange two Sixth-grade Dou Ling Pills and one Seventh-grade Transformation Pill for the Heavenly Flame. What does Your Majesty think?"

At Gu He's words, gasps rang out in waves both inside and outside the city walls.

Clearly, Gu He's lavish offer had stunned quite a few people.

Queen Medusa narrowed her eyes.

Seeing this, a smile had just appeared on Gu He's face when it froze the next instant.

"Five."

"Four."

Queen Medusa was counting down coldly.

She had said it already: Gu He and the others had five breaths to disappear from her sight.

Gu He stood frozen in place as an intense chill exploded in his heart.

"P-Pill King, hurry and leave!"

The two Dou Wangs, Yan Shi and Feng Li, urged him anxiously.

The five Dou Lings had already used their movement techniques and fled more than a hundred meters away.

"Sigh, let's go..."

Before Gu He could finish speaking.

Yun Yun stepped forward from behind him. The wind lifted away her black robe, revealing a delicate, beautiful face.

She looked at Queen Medusa and said in a cool voice, "My apologies, Your Majesty."

"I have a reason why I must obtain the Heavenly Flame. Forgive my offense."

Whoosh—

The instant her words fell.

A slender streak of azure light, carrying unparalleled sharpness, shot toward Queen Medusa.

It was so fast that it seemed to cross the distance through space itself, reaching Queen Medusa in an instant.

Queen Medusa's pupils suddenly contracted. Her head only had time to shift slightly to the left.

In an instant.

The azure light pierced past her.

A lock of black hair drifted slowly to the ground.

Inside and outside the city walls, it was terrifyingly quiet.

Everyone's gaze was fixed on these two women, whose styles differed completely but whose beauty was equally breathtaking.

Yan Shi and Feng Li swallowed with difficulty.

"How did the Misty Cloud Sect Leader's Extreme Wind Meteor Kill become so terrifying!?"

The two were, like Yun Yun, among the Jia Ma Empire's ten greatest experts.

Though they were a rank below her.

It was not as though they had never seen Yun Yun fight before.

They could only say that the change was earth-shattering.

"Yun Yun..."

Gu He stood there in a daze. Watching Yun Yun confront Queen Medusa, his eyes suddenly filled with overwhelming emotion.

He had never expected Yun Yun to care so deeply about his dream of obtaining a Heavenly Flame.

She would rather face Queen Medusa than give up.

"Teacher, isn't this Dou Huang..."

Xiao Yan recalled that encounter in the Monster Beast Mountain Range.

After several seconds of silence, Yao Lao's solemn voice sounded in Xiao Yan's heart.

"That's right. She is the Dou Huang who fought the Purple Crystal Winged Lion King."

"Because she was covered by a black robe, I could not be certain, but using her Dou Technique exposed her aura."

"Still, this Dou Huang is not the real concern..."

"I'm worried that the mysterious expert from last time came along as well."

Xiao Yan's expression stiffened upon hearing that.

"N-No way?"

"Teacher, didn't you say that mysterious expert was... at the very least a Dou Venerate?"

"Do Dou Venerates have that much free time?"

Yao Lao did not answer.

"Stand down."

After rebuking the Snake People Race members who wanted to step forward, Queen Medusa reached out and caught the fallen lock of hair.

Her bewitching eyes narrowed as she looked at the beautiful woman standing opposite her, the corner of her lips slowly curving upward.

"What a sharp Dou Technique. It truly is impossible to guard against."

For Queen Medusa to say such words already proved how seriously she regarded Yun Yun.

"Your Majesty's speed is what is truly astonishing."

Yun Yun's tone was grave as she held a longsword shimmering with azure light.

The mysterious senior had given her pills three times.

Her current level was already that of an eight-star Dou Huang.

Yet she could still feel a faint, indistinct pressure from Queen Medusa.

Yun Yun knew that she had still underestimated Queen Medusa.

The two women were wary of each other, and neither acted rashly.

At the same time, however, they were both gathering their strength, hoping to defeat the other in a single strike.

High in the sky.

Ji Changqing scratched his head anxiously.

Hadn't he told Queen Medusa to find a suitable moment to give the Heavenly Flame to Yun Yun?!

Why were these two fighting instead?!

Ahem, but honestly, women fighting really was a sight to behold!
