Ch. 21Breaking through to Dou Zong, with no path to be found
Jia Xingtian and Yun Shan sensed Luo Yang’s immense power after his full-strength Zeperion Ray, while Hai Bodong became convinced Luo Wenxuan was worth backing. Days later, Luo Yang’s group approached the Snake-People territory, where heightened patrols complicated their plan to negotiate with Queen Medusa.
- Jia Xingtian sensed an unknown power from the Tagor Desert, suspected Queen Medusa at first, then returned to the Jia Ma Imperial Court to prepare for trouble.
- Yun Shan sensed the same unrestrained power from Misty Cloud Rear Mountain and anticipated a major reshuffling in the Jia Ma Empire.
- Luo Yang stopped firing the Zeperion Ray, and Hai Bodong witnessed its power before chasing after him and deciding to invest his confidence in Luo Wenxuan.
- Over the next several days, Luo Yang cultivated as the group crossed the Tagor Desert, advancing from Five-Star Dou Master to Seven-Star Dou Shi.
- The group encountered dense Snake-People patrols, including Yan Ci, but Tushan Rongrong stopped Luo Yang from capturing him so they would not undermine their plan to negotiate.
- Tushan Rongrong blamed Luo Yang’s earlier disturbance during Queen Medusa’s preparations for the heightened security, and Luo Yang laughed awkwardly as they continued onward.
