Under Qing Lin and Elder Yao's guidance, Xiao Yan slowly headed forward in the right direction.
After about half an hour, Xiao Yan and Qing Lin finally arrived at the vast pool of magma.
Xiao Yan said excitedly, "Qing Lin, wait for me here. The Heavenly Flame is down below. I'll come find you once I've taken it."
Qing Lin nodded, and Xiao Yan suddenly remembered that there was also a fourth-tier serpent-type magical beast down there.
"Qing Lin, have you ever noticed that your eyes can control serpent-type magical beasts?" Xiao Yan crouched before Qing Lin and asked carefully.
Qing Lin nodded timidly and said, "Young Master Xiao Yan, I did notice it before."
Good. Xiao Yan then called out in his heart, "Teacher, it's your turn!"
Elder Yao said with a smile, "You little rascal really are lucky. So many people are accompanying you as you grow stronger."
Xiao Yan joked, "Maybe it's because I'm too charismatic?"
"You silver-tongued brat. Hand control of your body over to me. I know what you're thinking. You want this girl with the Triple Jade-Green Snake Flower Pupils to control the Two-Headed Fire Spirit Snake below, don't you?" Elder Yao said with a smile.
Xiao Yan spread his Purple Cloud Wings and flew above the lava. The heat there was so intense that it nearly scorched his face.
He had no choice but to summon the Myriad Beast Spirit Fire, but the Two-Headed Fire Spirit Snake reacted to the Heavenly Flame as though it had seen a delicious meal!
It shot out of the magma in an instant.
"Damn beast! You're courting death!" Xiao Yan shouted!
He slammed the Mysterious Heavy Ruler, infused with the Myriad Beast Spirit Fire, viciously into the Two-Headed Fire Spirit Snake's head.
"Behave yourself!"
After saying that, Xiao Yan kicked the Two-Headed Fire Spirit Snake onto the shore. As it struggled to rise, it suddenly saw Qing Lin before it.
One girl and one snake stared at each other in the underground magma world.
"You old bastard, who exactly are you people? What are you doing here?" Yue Mei panted.
With her strength, she could not even last three moves against Old Hai.
"This isn't your Snake-People Tribe's territory. Why should I explain myself to you? It seems your Snake-People Tribe is still as overbearing as ever," Hai Bodong replied calmly.
Yue Mei inwardly marveled at the strength of the man before her and could only pray that reinforcements would arrive sooner.
Hai Bodong could see what she was thinking, but he did not care.
Underground magma world.
Looking at the remarkably docile Two-Headed Fire Spirit Snake before him, Xiao Yan could not help but sigh. "Qing Lin, you're really incredible. You can easily subdue even a Dou Ling-level magical beast."
After being praised by Xiao Yan, Qing Lin smiled and said, "As long as I can make Young Master Xiao Yan happy, Qing Lin is happy too."
Xiao Yan hurriedly asked, "Qing Lin, can you have it take me down to find the Heavenly Flame?"
"I'll ask it."
Qing Lin chatted with the Two-Headed Fire Spirit Snake for a while, then said excitedly, "Young Master Xiao Yan, it says it can take you to find the Heavenly Flame."
Xiao Yan excitedly patted the Two-Headed Fire Spirit Snake's huge head, then wrapped his entire body in the Myriad Beast Spirit Fire and jumped into the magma alongside it.
Qing Lin said worriedly, "Young Master Xiao Yan, be careful!"
Hai Bodong tightly bound Yue Mei with ice chains, then threw her onto the ground.
"You old bastard, if you have the guts, kill me! The Queen will avenge me anyway!" Yue Mei refused to be captured by Hai Bodong.
Hai Bodong said indifferently, "Little girl, how many times have you called me an old bastard? Even if your Queen were here, she wouldn't dare insult me like that."
"Is that so?"
A rough male voice came from afar.
Seeing three streaks of light in different colors flying toward him, Hai Bodong knew that Yue Mei's reinforcements had arrived.
The moment Mo Basi saw Yue Mei bound and thrown onto the ground, he said angrily, "Human, you are declaring war on our Snake-People Empire! Do you know the consequences of this?"
Yan Ci said viciously, "Why waste words with him? Tie this human up and hand him over to the Queen for punishment. Then head to Stone Desert City and complete the mission."
Hua She'er sneered. "This human dared to humiliate our Snake-People Tribe. We must skin him and tear out his tendons!"
After saying that, Hua She'er swooped down, while Mo Basi and Yan Ci blocked Hai Bodong's path to prevent him from attacking suddenly.
However, Old Hai merely smiled.
After Hua She'er shattered the chains around Yue Mei and helped her up.
The four Snake-People Tribe experts stood side by side. The pressure exuded by four people with Dou Qi wings was indeed formidable.
Yue Mei whispered, "Be careful. This man is a Dou Emperor. There may be other powerful experts behind him."
Hua She'er said, "I know. The situation here has already exceeded our control. I've informed Her Majesty of everything here. I believe she'll arrive soon."
After hearing that, Mo Basi said, "Then what are we waiting for? Before the Queen arrives, let's capture this human Dou Emperor first!"
Yan Ci agreed. "Good idea. Let's do it!"
Before the others could react, he charged straight at Hai Bodong.
Hua She'er cursed inwardly, That useless fool only knows how to show off. Wouldn't everything be foolproof if we just waited for the Queen to arrive? He just had to act on his own!
Though Hua She'er cursed him inwardly, she and Yue Mei followed immediately.
Hai Bodong took out his ice spear again and pointed its tip at the four of them. "They're only four Dou Wangs. However many of you Snake-People Tribe members come, I'll take them all!"
Snake-People Empire, within the temple.
After receiving Hua She'er's message, Queen Medusa was preparing to leave the temple to provide aid when she was stopped.
Medusa looked at White Fang, who was twisting about before her, and said impatiently, "Eight-Winged Black Emperor Snake, our Snake-People Tribe has no quarrel with you. What do you mean by stopping me from going to save my people?"
White Fang paced around the temple as he spoke. "I had long heard of Queen Medusa's great reputation, so I came to witness it for myself."
Medusa snorted coldly and said, "I doubt it's that simple. Tell me your purpose. I imagine you discovered the existence of the Heavenly Flame as well, which is why you went to such lengths."
White Fang flashed his big white teeth and said, "Your Majesty truly is clever. I only wonder whether you can bear to give up the Heavenly Flame for my boss."
Queen Medusa smiled. "Hua She'er said they were blocked by a Dou Emperor. Now you have come to stop me as well. I'm very curious—since when did the Jia Ma Empire possess a force with such strength?"
"Your Majesty, you know I, White Fang, hate fighting and killing the most. So please sit with me here for a little while longer," White Fang said, stretching lazily.
"If you think this is enough to frighten me, Medusa, then let me tell you—you understand me far too little!"
