Chapter 195 Snake People Tribe News
Under the scorching sun, the harsh sunlight shone down on the vast expanse of yellow sand, reflecting a faint gleam.
Three dark shadows swiftly passed over the yellow sand.
Majestic Dou Qi surged with a dull roar, echoing in the air.
"Give up, Yue Mei of the Snake Woman. Your Snake People Tribe will be completely destroyed today. What's the point of you surviving alone?"
An old man and a middle-aged man closely followed behind the figure flying ahead.
Both wore white robes with cloud sword patterns embroidered on them.
This was unmistakably the attire of the Misty Cloud Sect.
The figure ahead was a woman who was half-human, half-snake, covered in wounds and wearing tattered clothes, looking extremely miserable.
Voices came from behind, but she didn't respond.
Because her current condition was extremely bad, even speaking would affect her.
Damn it!
Those bastards from the Misty Cloud Sect, why did they launch a full-scale attack out of nowhere? They weren't this crazy even the previous year.
Yue Mei felt a tightness in her chest.
She had thought it would just be a simple request for reinforcements, so she went to the tribe alone.
Instead, she was ambushed by the Misty Cloud Sect, with three Elders in the Dou King realm alone.
One of them was even at the peak of Dou King strength.
This left Yue Mei, who was only a 6 Star Dou King, at a disadvantage against the three.
"So many Dou Kings suddenly appeared. What has the Misty Cloud Sect done?"
Due to her wounds being agitated, cold sweat dripped from Yue Mei's forehead.
Hoo!
Suddenly, a strong wind pressed from behind.
Yue Mei didn't look back, but her wings trembled, shifting her sideways.
"Hoo..."
Just as Yue Mei thought she had successfully evaded it, that force unexpectedly changed direction and rushed straight towards her.
"Ah!"
Despite activating her Defensive Qi at the first moment, Yue Mei didn't have much Dou Qi left. After taking a hit, she let out a miserable cry and fell straight from high altitude.
Approaching the sandy ground, Yue Mei barely gathered a trace of Dou Qi, preventing herself from crashing heavily onto the sand.
A scorching heat wave continuously surged into her body where the gravel and her skin met.
Yue Mei endured the discomfort and rolled over.
In mid-air, two figures looked down on her from above.
"We'll send you on your way first. Soon after, your Snake People Temple will also be wiped out."
The old man's palm turned over, gathering a hurricane in his palm, then slapped down towards Yue Mei below.
The hurricane howled and in an instant transformed into a powerful storm.
Yue Mei despaired and closed her eyes.
With her Dou Qi depleted and no other strong members of the Snake People Tribe around, she had fallen into a desperate situation.
However...
Several breaths passed, and the anticipated impact did not fall on her as expected. Only a gentle breeze swept over her body, carrying away the slightest trace of heat.
What's going on? Did he miss?
As Yue Mei was lost in thought, she suddenly heard the angry voice of the old man.
"Young man, who are you to interfere in the affairs of the Misty Cloud Sect? Get lost!"
The old man's eyes widened in anger as he glared at the young man who had appeared below.
The young man's presence was indiscernible, but his speed was elusive.
He hadn't even noticed the arrival of this person, yet he managed to block his attack.
Yue Mei opened her eyes and saw two figures that had appeared in front of her at some point.
Both of them were humans.
Among them, a tall young man with his back to her, his face unclear, and a purple-haired girl tilted her head, her gaze assessing her.
From the girl's eyes, Yue Mei faintly sensed a hint of disgust, which startled her.
Am I very ugly?
"Noisy."
Lin Xiu glanced at the two of them, raised his right hand, and extended his index finger towards them.
Boom!
The sky roared with thunder, and a lightning bolt appeared out of nowhere.
This lightning bolt was extremely fast, shaped like a human finger, as if a deity was pressing down from above.
The old man and the middle-aged man felt the energy fluctuations around them, their faces drastically changing.
"Run!"
They both exclaimed simultaneously, their Dou Qi surging like boiling water, running in different directions.
Fear and panic spread across their faces.
Neither of them had expected that a young man who appeared out of nowhere would attack directly without any regard for rules.
And he seemed indifferent to the reputation of the Misty Cloud Sect.
However, in front of the thunderbolt, their speed was insignificant. Before they could take a single step, they were covered by the lightning and then fell towards the desert.
Yellow sand flew through the air, revealing a massive crater.
"Is that all it takes to kill them?"
Yue Mei didn't sense the presence of the two men and took a sharp breath.
At that moment, her heart tightened.
Because the young man slowly turned around, a pair of indifferent eyes fell upon her.
Being stared at by him, Yue Mei felt as if she were being observed by a fierce beast, the pressure almost akin to facing a queen.
"Leader Yue Mei? Take me to the Snake People Temple," Lin Xiu ordered.
"Are you friend or foe?" Yue Mei didn't immediately agree. The opponent's strength was beyond belief; even a Dou King couldn't withstand a single move from him.
Without clarification, what if he brought trouble to her tribe?
Lin Xiu didn't answer. Instead, he raised his hand and gestured towards Yue Mei.
She instinctively dodged, but felt no Dou Qi energy. She cautiously opened her eyes again.
The triangular pupils shifted, looking towards the yellow sand beside her.
On the gravel lay a quietly resting token.
Queen's token?
Yue Mei's pupils contracted, her eyes widened as she looked at Lin Xiu. "How do you have this?"
"Of course it was personally given to me by your queen," Lin Xiu replied, tucking away the token once more.
"Why would the queen give the token to a human?" Yue Mei murmured softly, her tone skeptical.
But typically, the token was closely guarded by the queen herself, and ordinary people wouldn't even have the chance to touch it.
After pondering fruitlessly, Yue Mei snapped back to reality and realized someone had grabbed her by the neck and lifted her straight up.
"What do you want?" Yue Mei panicked.
"To go to the Snake People Temple. Lead the way," Lin Xiu said coldly.
After a moment of silence, Yue Mei pointed in a direction.
With one under each arm, Lin Xiu activated lightning under his feet.
The next moment, the scenery around them rapidly receded, colors becoming blurry and even distorted.
What speed is this? Is he a Dou Ancestor?
Seeing the surroundings change, Yue Mei's expression became somewhat out of control. It was her first time experiencing such a sensation of rapid movement.
After about a dozen breaths, Yue Mei noticed everything around her becoming clear again.
Why did the speed slow down?
At this moment, Yue Mei looked ahead and was astonished to see the Snake People Core City appear.
"This, this... It would have taken me at least half a day to fly here..."
Yue Mei found it extremely hard to believe.
Ahead, the city was indeed in the midst of a large-scale battle. Many disciples of the Misty Cloud Sect had formed formations and were attacking the city.
Above the city, clouds and mist swirled, with waves of Dou Qi fluctuations emanating from within, accompanied by shouts.
Among them, several auras of Dou Emperors were particularly formidable.
"Why isn't the queen here?" Yue Mei paused, realizing something was wrong and feeling a bit panicked.
The queen must not be in any danger!
Shouts echoed from within the clouds.
"Put in more effort!"
"While the Sect Master holds Medusa back, let's destroy the Snake People Temple today."
Already potent Dou Qi surged once again.
Several figures shot out from the clouds one after another, their immense impacts reducing many buildings in the city to rubble, raising dust into the air.
Within the thinning mist, several figures in white robes emerged.
They stood at different positions, seemingly forming some kind of formation.
Dou Qi surged within the clouds, brewing a powerful Dou Technique.
Suddenly, an impact struck from outside. The figures in the mist immediately sensed it and swiftly switched from offense to defense.
However, they were still blasted back a considerable distance. Even their formidable formation was directly shattered.
Several of them coughed up blood, their gazes vacant and filled with fear as they scanned their surroundings, finding no one there.
They exchanged a glance and immediately reached a consensus, summoning their disciples to retreat.
