Night fell, and lights shone brightly throughout the Snake-People Holy City.
Even at night, crowds streamed through the Holy City. After so many years of development, its prosperity was plain to see, rivaling even some cities in the Jia Ma Empire.
The Snake-People Holy Temple was particularly lively that day, with the tribe's strongest experts gathered inside.
Gatherings like this were rare among the Snake-People Tribe.
Meanwhile, Elder Che Cheng followed Ya Fei toward the Sacred Hall.
Security around the Sacred Hall was visibly tighter that day, with more than twice the usual number of guards.
Along the way, Che Cheng spotted no fewer than five Dou Ling experts.
Those experts alone offered him a glimpse of the tribe's core strength, which clearly could not be underestimated.
Soon, Ya Fei led Che Cheng into the Sacred Hall, where several people were already seated in the Great Hall.
"Dou Wangs. Every single one possesses the strength of a Dou Wang!"
A trace of gravity crossed Che Cheng's face as he studied those present. "And every one of them has successfully assumed human form."
For members of the Snake-People Tribe to assume human form, they needed supreme treasures such as transformation grass or Transformation Pills.
In other words, every expert present had taken transformation grass, a direct display of the tribe's immense wealth.
When Che Cheng turned his gaze toward Queen Medusa, his eyes grew even more solemn.
He could clearly sense it.
The Queen's aura was sharper and colder than it had been during the day.
During the day, the Queen had seemed unfathomable, impossible to read. Now, she was like an active volcano, terrifying power surging out of her body.
"Che Cheng pays his respects to Your Majesty!"
Che Cheng addressed Queen Medusa with respectful deference.
Every Dou Zong expert
