Three Emperor's Extreme Pills!

Terrifying Dou Qi energy continued to surge, swiftly rushing out in every direction.

"This is bad!"

Jia Xingtian's expression changed drastically in an instant.

His figure flashed, Dou Qi Wings instantly appearing behind him as he rose into the air.

"Phoenix Escape!"

No sooner had the words fallen than boundless earthen-yellow Dou Qi energy welled up from the ground. Streams of energy gathered in midair, enclosing the entire area in an instant.

Just as the Energy Escape formed-

Rumble!

A tremendous roar rang out once again.

Endless light and heat erupted before everyone's eyes.

Even with Jia Xingtian's Energy Escape shielding them, Jia Xingtian and the others outside could still feel the might of that terrifying shock wave.

Only when heaven and earth fell quiet again could everyone see clearly.

The energy shield Jia Xingtian had deployed had already been shattered by the powerful shock wave and dissipated.

Everything within several dozen meters had been utterly destroyed. Lü Mei and Bai Ya were nowhere to be seen, and an enormous crater in the earth appeared before everyone's eyes.

"Hiss!"

At the sight, everyone present involuntarily sucked in a breath of cold air.

"This... just a casual attack could cause such terrifying destruction?!"

"Is this Queen Medusa's strength?!"

"Thank goodness we handed over all our resources just now. Otherwise, we'd probably all be done for!"

Gute, Frank, and Otto exchanged glances, each swallowing hard.

Such power was terrifying!

If a casual strike possessed such might, wouldn't killing them take no more than a wave of her hand?!

And this was with Jia Xingtian, a Peak Dou Emperor, using a skill to protect them. Otherwise, whether they could still be standing there unharmed was another question entirely.

Beside them, Jia Xing's deeply grave expression finally eased a little.

Even so, Jia Xingtian remained grateful that he had acted decisively.

Had he been even a few breaths slower, the buildings within nearly a hundred meters would probably have suffered.

Fortunately, this area was fairly remote and almost uninhabited. Otherwise, quite a few people might have died.

"Cough, cough!"

Coughing rose from the center of the crater.

Two figures slowly came into view: the Eight-Winged Black Snake Emperor, who had reverted to his true form, and Elder Lu Man.

The Eight-Winged Black Snake Emperor had taken Medusa's attack head-on and suffered heavier injuries, while Elder Lu Man had sustained only minor wounds.

"Bai Ya, are you all right?"

Lu Man's eyes narrowed slightly as she looked at Bai Ya in his true form.

"Cough, cough! I won't die!"

Bai Ya's true form was a miserable sight. The eight wings behind him were covered in wounds, and his aura fluctuated violently. He had clearly suffered considerable injuries.

Slowly raising his head to look at the red-robed Medusa below, Bai Ya's face revealed a trace of fear.

Now, he had fully experienced Queen Medusa's strength. Though they were both at the Peak Dou Emperor level, they were not remotely comparable.

Queen Medusa's strength could not possibly be measured against that of an ordinary Peak Dou Emperor.

She was probably stronger than even some of the Half-Step Dou Zong experts in their sect!

Although Bai Ya had not unleashed his full strength, he could sense that Queen Medusa's power went far beyond what she had shown as well.

Only after hearing Bai Ya's words did Lu Man nod slightly. She turned to look at Queen Medusa, her expression exceedingly grave.

Queen Medusa's strength far exceeded their sect's assessment of her. She was probably already comparable to a Half-Step Dou Zong.

Otherwise, how could a single casual move unleash such terrifying might?

"Your Majesty, this was only a misunderstanding. Please do not fly into a rage."

A moment later, Lu Man finally spoke to Medusa with a solemn expression. "Our Heavenly Snake Mansion absolutely intended no disrespect toward Your Majesty. We were merely carrying out a sect mission!"

The Heavenly Snake Mansion!

Hearing that name, everyone present frowned. They had never heard of this faction!

Jia Xingtian's expression grew even graver. He was the one who truly felt alarmed.

He had never heard of the Heavenly Snake Mansion, yet it possessed two Peak Dou Emperor experts-and they apparently were not even the strongest in their sect. That meant the Heavenly Snake Mansion likely had experts who surpassed the Peak Dou Emperor level.

Dou Zong!

A faction with a Dou Zong expert was undoubtedly a first-rate power on this continent!

Medusa's expression also changed slightly. She knew little about the Heavenly Snake Mansion, but its origins were probably anything but simple.

"The Heavenly Snake Mansion is one of the top first-rate factions on the Northwest Continent. It is extremely secretive and low-profile, so ordinary experts do not know about it." Chen Xuan's voice slowly rang out. "Moreover, it was established by the Snake-People Tribe. There are probably High-Rank Dou Zong experts within the sect. It is powerful."

High-Rank Dou Zong?!

Hearing this, Queen Medusa's expression turned solemn. Such beings were beyond what she could afford to provoke at her current stage.

"The Heavenly Snake Mansion, a first-rate faction on the continent?!" Medusa lifted her gaze slightly, a strange gleam appearing in her eyes as she said coldly, "So what? Even if you belong to the Heavenly Snake Mansion, I do not fear you."

"Don't think I have no way of keeping you here just because you're both Peak Dou Emperors!"

Although inwardly shocked, Queen Medusa still had no intention of letting them off so easily.

Making Queen Medusa cower with a mere name was impossible. It simply would not happen!

Hearing this, Lu Man gave a bitter smile. After a pause, she said, "Since we offended Your Majesty first, we will naturally compensate you. How about two Emperor's Extreme Pills?"

"As long as Your Majesty is willing to leave an opening in the net and spare us, these two Emperor's Extreme Pills will be yours."

With that, Lu Man took two Emperor's Extreme Pills directly out of her Storage Ring and looked at Queen Medusa.

Two Emperor's Extreme Pills!

In an instant, Jia Xingtian, Frank, and the others present stared with eyes wide open.

These were Sixth-Grade Pills!

In the entire Jia Ma Empire, only Pill King Gu He could refine them.

Queen Medusa also showed a trace of surprise. She had thought a fierce battle would be unavoidable, never expecting these two to be so accommodating, offering two Emperor's Extreme Pills right away.

These were Sixth-Grade Pills capable of raising a Dou Huang expert's strength by one star, and they had offered two just like that.

It seemed the Heavenly Snake Mansion was unexpectedly wealthy!

"Three! Three Emperor's Extreme Pills!" Queen Medusa immediately declared.

"Fine! Three Emperor's Extreme Pills it is!" Lu Man answered without the slightest hesitation.

Bai Ya, standing beside her, immediately grew anxious. "Big Sister, this..."

"These are three Emperor's Extreme Pills!"

"Hmm?!"

Lu Man swept her gaze over him, and Bai Ya instantly fell silent.

Although three Emperor's Extreme Pills were precious, they did not amount to much for the Heavenly Snake Mansion. Besides, their main task now was to find the Triple Jade-Green Snake Flower Pupils. There was no need to provoke Queen Medusa, an expert whose strength rivaled a Half-Step Dou Zong.
