The four Peak Dou Huang elders of the Snake-People
The flying carpet landed. 👣🔥 🐍♡
Qian Ye led a few people down from the flying carpet and looked around. This place was an oasis in the heart of the desert.
Queen Medusa stepped forward, glanced ahead, and then said to Qian Ye, "Brother Ye, this is the territory of our Snake-People Tribe."
Qian Ye nodded, then suddenly his ears twitched; clearly, something was off about the atmosphere. "Someone's coming."
"Don't worry, they are definitely my people," Queen Medusa added.
Qian Ye nodded, no doubt about it.
"Ding! Master, congratulations on checking in at the Tager Great Desert! Reward: Heavenly Flames Red Lotus Karmic Flame!"
Check-in System featuring a loli voice.
[Red Lotus Karmic Flame: Ranked eighth on the Heavenly Flames Ranking, deep red like a lotus]
"Ding! Master, the Heavenly Flames Red Lotus Karmic Flame can be absorbed. Absorb it?"
"Absorb!" Qian Ye replied.
"Ding! You are absorbing the Red Lotus Heavenly Flame..."
"Ding! The Heavenly Flames Red Lotus Karmic Flame has been absorbed and can now be used!"
Qian Ye smiled broadly.
Upon internal inspection, he saw that a new kind of Heavenly Flames had appeared in his Dantian, shaped like a red lotus flower.
Whoosh whoosh~
Suddenly, more than a dozen figures appeared in front of them.
Qian Ye looked up and saw a tall, voluptuous woman with short red hair standing in front of her.
Behind them were several women, all dressed in armor; they were undoubtedly snake people.
After all, their upper bodies are human, and their lower bodies are just snakes.
Zi Yan glanced at the newcomer, immediately clenching her fists warily, and stepped in front of Qian Ye. 💥🎯 👣🍓
To be honest, this was Qian Ye's first time seeing a snake-man. After all, Queen Medusa had already transformed into a human and had no tail, so seeing the snake-man in front of him was quite a novel experience.
Xiao Yan glanced at the snake-man, then looked at the red-haired woman and immediately recognized her as Hua She'er, the snake-man's captain of guards.
"Your Majesty, you are back!"
Suddenly, the red-haired woman appeared before Queen Medusa, beaming with smiles.
"Captain Hua, it's been a long time." Queen Medusa was also happy to see the red-haired woman.
"It's alright," Hua She'er replied, then glanced at the people around her, giving Qian Ye a special look. "Queen, who are these people?"
Hua She'er have an innate hostility towards humans.
After all, the natural enmity between snake people and humans is nothing new; they usually fight whenever they meet, so naturally they wouldn't give Qian Ye and the others a friendly look.
Yun Yun and Nalan Yanran also frowned, moved close behind Qian Ye to protect him, and released their Dou Qi.
Han Feng's strength had been sealed by Qian Ye, so he naturally dared not say another word.
Xiao Yan just watched, figuring it was none of his business.
"My friend," Queen Medusa said with a smile, looking at Qian Ye. "His name is Qian Ye, you can call him Brother Ye."
Brother Ye?
Hua She'er was stunned, thinking to herself, "When did the Queen become so polite and gentle to a human?"
But she dared not disobey Queen Medusa's orders, and could only reluctantly reply, "Brother Ye."
Qian Ye: "You're welcome."
"Let's go. (-_-) (-_-)" Queen Medusa didn't say much, and took Qian Ye's hand, walking into the forest first.
Yun Yun and the others followed closely behind, and Hua She'er also led her subordinates in pursuit.
Upon arriving in their territory, Queen Medusa received a warm welcome from the snake people. Of course, this was only to welcome their queen home; Qian Ye and the others were treated as enemies.
However, with Queen Medusa protecting them, they dared not say anything more.
Queen Medusa made arrangements for Qian Ye, and then arranged accommodations for Zi Yan and the others.
After taking a bath, Qian Ye lay down on the bed. She was tired from the long journey and decided to take a nap first.
Bang bang bang~
Qian Ye didn't know how long she had slept when a knock on the door startled her awake.
who?
Qian Ye looked towards the door and saw that it was none other than Queen Medusa.
Looking at the time, it was already 2:30 PM.
She must have something important to tell me.
He smiled, got out of bed, put on his clothes, and went to open the door.
Queen Medusa then met Qian Ye, her pretty face blushing slightly. "Brother Ye, have you rested well?"
Qian Ye nodded. "Very good, is there something you need?"
"Yes, let's talk as we walk."
"Okay." Qian Ye walked alongside her, encountering many snake people along the way.
Queen Medusa walked forward for a while before saying, "Brother Ye, the elders want to see you."
Elder?
Qian Ye pondered for a moment. According to the original book, among these snake people, there was not only Queen Medusa, but also eight leaders, namely Mo Basi, Yin Shi, and others, whose strength was all below the peak of Dou Wang.
Although none of them are Dou Huang, their combined strength would not be weak.
Besides the eight powerful figures and Queen Medusa, there are also four elders.
These four elders appeared to be four old women.
His strength should also be considerable, possessing the power of Peak Dou Huang.
"Now?" Qian Ye thought it wouldn't hurt to meet him.
With his own strength, even several Dou Huang elders couldn't do anything to him.
"Hmm." Queen Medusa didn't say much and led the way.
Qian Ye followed him around the tribe several times, and finally they arrived at a large house in the center.
Several guards stood watch at the entrance.
However, upon seeing their queen arrive, they immediately stepped aside and bowed to her.
He just stared at Qian Ye curiously for a while, looking rather unwelcoming.
With their queen present, it wasn't their place to say anything more.
Immediately, Queen Medusa led Qian Ye inside, and a large hall appeared before them.
Qian Ye glanced around; the hall was large, and then he saw four people sitting at the very top of the hall.
One person sits at the top, while the other three sit on either side.
They were four elderly women.
"Elder, this is the Qian Ye I was talking about." Queen Medusa immediately addressed the old woman seated at the head of the table as she faced the four people.
After hearing her words, Qian Ye no longer needed to doubt the identities of the four people; they were indeed the four elders of the Snake People.
There is suspicion that the four might be the older generation of Queen Medusa.
After all, the snake people are an Elder Gu race, and the Queen Medusa in front of them is not very old, only about three hundred years old, so there should be many Queen Medusa before her.
Qian Ye chuckled to himself; this was probably not something he should be concerned about.
Following Queen Medusa's words, the four immediately turned to look at Qian Ye, scrutinizing him from head to toe as if trying to see right through him.
cough cough~
Then, the Grand Elder coughed a few times, breaking the brief silence, and asked, "Qian Ye, what is your cultivation level?"
I...
Are they checking my household registration?
This has a bit of a mother-in-law judging her son-in-law vibe, doesn't it?
Something's not right, something's really not right.
Qian Ye thought for a moment. He had deliberately made himself appear to be at the Peak Dou Ling before, but this time he was meeting the four elders, the elders of Queen Medusa, so he naturally needed to raise his status a bit.
Let's not talk about Dou Zong or Dou Huang.
It's still acceptable for Dou Wang title.
"Um... to answer the question from the Grand Elder, I am already at the Peak Dou Wang."
"Oh..." Upon hearing Qian Ye's words, or rather, his strength, the elder's expression immediately darkened, and he looked rather displeased.
He exchanged a glance with the other three elders, and they all shook their heads.
Qian Ye could tell from the way the other three elders were shaking their heads that they were disdainful of his current Dou Wang strength.
However, he was no ordinary Nine-Star Dou Wang.
Rather, it is an existence capable of easily defeating Dou Di).
They'll be in big trouble if they underestimate themselves.
