What Do You Call a Benevolent and Reasonable Person in Xianxia? An Impossibility!

“Ugh!!!”

As Yun Ying launched an attack on the Snake-People Race guards alongside the Desert Metal Mercenary Company members, she was accidentally hit by the residual Dou Qi of Hei Du. She lay on the sand, clutching her abdomen, her long black hair and luxurious noble attire covered in dust.

However, despite her apparent pain, Yun Ying’s crimson eyes were fixed tightly on a corner of the Snake-People Race Sacred Land.

She had clearly sensed three intense emotional fluctuations coming from that corner.

One was the collision between Xiao Ding and Mo Ba Si’s Dou Techniques, another was when Xiao Yixian was knocked away by Yan Ci, and the third was when she herself was hit by Hei Du’s residual Dou Qi.

In that direction…

Yun Ying’s eyes revealed a hint of understanding.

Forget it, let’s just continue lying here. Acting is really exhausting, and if I can’t control myself, it might cause trouble.

With this thought in mind, Yun Ying suddenly felt the entire frontline quiet down. Quietly shifting her gaze, she saw Medusa, the Queen of the Snake-People Race, appearing in mid-air.

“Y-Your Majesty the Queen…” Mo Ba Si stared blankly at Medusa in mid-air, astonishment filling his golden snake-like eyes. “Aren’t you—”

“Mo Ba Si, don’t just focus on exercising your muscles, use your brain more,” Medusa interrupted Mo Ba Si, turning her head slightly to give him a cold glance.

“Your life is much more precious than you think.”

Then, Medusa looked towards Yan Ci on the other side and said coldly, “Yan Ci, do you have any objections?”

“No, Your Majesty!” Yan Ci didn’t hesitate at all, bowing his head in compliance without any argument.

If it weren’t for Medusa’s timely arrival, Mo Ba Si would have been killed by Xiao Ding’s spear. Although Mo Ba Si brought it upon himself, as a guardian, Yan Ci’s failure to anticipate this situation was indeed negligence.

“Everyone is making me worry,” Medusa said with a cold smile, looking at Xiao Ding, who was unable to move due to her restrained Dou Qi.

“You are Xiao Ding, the sister of Xiao Li, right?” Medusa’s golden snake-like eyes narrowed slightly, her tone tinged with mockery. “Compared to your sister, your brain seems to be not so useful.”

With these words, Medusa slowly raised her hand, the destructive aura swirling in her palm.

Her eyes glinted with killing intent.

“Regardless, daring to cause trouble in our tribe’s Sacred Land is seeking death, even if you are Xiao Li’s sister.”

“In that case, you can’t blame anyone else.”

“Go meet your brother.”

Seeing Medusa’s actions, Mo Ba Si’s expression changed drastically. Remembering what Xiao Li had entrusted him with, he panicked and shouted.

“Your Majesty the Queen! Wait—”

“Shut up!”

But before Mo Ba Si could finish his words, Yan Ci, who had sensed that something was wrong, had already flashed behind him. He firmly pressed Mo Ba Si’s head into the sand, preventing him from continuing.

Fortunately, Mo Ba Si had been seriously injured in his battle with Xiao Ding just now. Otherwise, Yan Ci wouldn’t have been able to suppress him so easily.

“The Queen’s decision is not something we can judge!” Yan Ci roared, his eyes filled with deep hesitation as he watched Medusa’s back in mid-air and the violent energy in her hand.

Although their plan had been reported to the Queen by Yin Shi, Yan Ci couldn’t be sure if the Queen would suddenly sabotage the plan.

If the Queen really killed Xiao Ding, it would mean that she had completely given up on the path of reconciliation between the Snake-People Race and humans.

In the end, why did the Queen, who had been in seclusion, suddenly appear here?

What exactly happened?

“Xiao Ding!”

Upon witnessing this scene, Xiao Yixian’s purple aura suddenly erupted, and she rushed towards Medusa’s direction. However, without any warning, she was sent flying and landed motionless in the sand, already unconscious.

“Woeful Poison Body? Indeed, it’s a good physique,” Medusa said coldly, glancing at the unconscious Xiao Yixian. “But unfortunately, your strength is not enough.”

Then, Medusa turned her gaze towards Xiao Ding, who was filled with hatred, and removed the restriction on her mouth, asking in a low voice, “Considering my past six months of interaction with Xiao Li, I allow you to make your final words.”

“I!!!”

Xiao Ding’s expression immediately filled with anger, ready to say something, but her throat suddenly tightened. Then, she lowered her head and closed her eyes slowly.

“There’s nothing to say, just do it,” Xiao Ding said calmly.

She came here to die, after all. At this point, making empty threats would be meaningless and only highlight her incompetence even more.

“Is that so?”

Medusa raised an eyebrow slightly, her golden eyes glancing imperceptibly towards a distant corner. The violent destructive Dou Qi in her hand continued to swirl silently in mid-air.

After about a dozen seconds, when everyone’s heart was filled with doubt, Medusa finally spoke slowly.

“Well then, you may die.”

As her words fell, Medusa waved the Dou Qi energy in her hand towards the helpless Xiao Ding.

The magnitude of this energy was something Xiao Ding couldn’t resist.

Xiao Ding, unable to move, was undoubtedly doomed!

“Hmm?”

In that instant, Medusa suddenly raised her eyebrows and glanced sideways towards a distant corner.

From that direction, she faintly sensed a chilling aura.

This aura felt somewhat familiar to her, like the old man she had chased and fought with in the desert more than ten years ago?

Wasn’t he sealed by me? Why has his strength recovered to the Dou Huang (Battle Emperor, 7th Level) level again?

Just as Medusa was puzzled, the violent energy was also approaching Xiao Ding.

In the next moment, Xiao Ding would vanish without a trace.

At that moment, a dark shadow suddenly flashed by, pulling Xiao Ding aside. The violent Dou Qi crashed into the sand, forming a deep pit with a radius of ten meters.

Very good…

Medusa’s body relaxed slightly, and the thought of dissipating the violent Dou Qi vanished.

She slowly turned her gaze towards the black shadow that had saved Xiao Ding.

It was a woman dressed in luxurious attire, holding a longsword in one hand and embracing Xiao Ding with the other. Her purple eyes were full of hatred, and even though her expression was fierce, her world-shaking beauty couldn’t be ignored.

Her strength was that of a 3 Star Dou Huang (Battle Emperor, 7th Level)!

“Today, there are quite a few guests from the snake-people tribe,” Medusa said calmly, squinting her eyes slightly. “Who are you?”

The woman gently placed Xiao Ding down and unfolded her Dou Qi wings, arriving in front of Medusa in mid-air, her purple eyes staring firmly at her.

In the next moment, the woman raised the long sword in her hand, pointing it directly at Medusa’s chest.

Her pink lips moved, uttering words filled with coldness.

“Yun Lan Sect, Yun Yun!”

Yun Lan Sect?!

Upon hearing Yun Yun’s self-identification, Yin Ke, who was hiding behind the snake-people tribe soldiers, was suddenly shocked.

He had heard the people from the Mo Family mention that the Yun Lan Sect seemed to be the backing of the Mo Family?

And this Yun Yun seemed to be the Sect Master?

At this moment, Yin Ke was somewhat confused.

Didn’t the Mo Family say that the Yun Lan Sect would never personally intervene? Why did the Sect Master of the Yun Lan Sect come here?

But regardless, after this segment, Yin Ke was now convinced that the snake-people tribe and humans had indeed fallen out.

Not only did Mo Ba Si go to the front lines, but even the Queen almost killed Xiao Li’s sister, Xiao Ding. If it weren’t for Yun Yun’s help, Xiao Ding would have been dead.

The fact was quite certain now, and it was time to report back.

With this decision in mind, Yin Ke carefully scanned the chaotic battlefield, quietly retreated, and then swallowed a pill in a blind spot in his line of sight. With strength surpassing his own, he quickly moved away from the snake-people tribe’s Sacred Land.

While Yun Yun and Medusa were facing off, Feng Li, Yan Shi, and Gu He were also accelerating towards the snake-people tribe’s Sacred Land on their way.

With their Dou Wang (Battle King, 6th Level) strength, they were naturally not as fast as Yun Yun, who was a Dou Huang (Battle Emperor, 7th Level).

“What’s wrong with this lady…”

Recalling the murderous gaze of Yun Yun, Yan Shi couldn’t help but shudder.

Originally, he thought Yun Yun was quite indifferent, but after seeing the report from the snake-people tribe’s leader, Yun Yun’s emotions suddenly changed dramatically. She had been in a furious state the whole time, and he and the other two dared not even breathe heavily beside her.

“Gu He,” Feng Li frowned slightly, glancing sideways at Gu He, “I have a feeling that you may not be able to get the Heavenly Flame as you wished.”

“…It seems that way.”

Gu He smiled bitterly. Since receiving the news that Queen Medusa had found the Heavenly Flame, he had spent a large sum of money on a pile of highly tempting valuables, hoping to use them for peaceful negotiations with Queen Medusa.

After all, the Heavenly Flame was undoubtedly a deadly poison to them, even to Queen Medusa.

Of course, Gu He wasn’t naive enough to think that Queen Medusa would definitely agree to his trade. That’s why he hired Feng Li and Yan Shi, and also invited Yun Yun as a guest elder of the Yun Lan Sect, to be prepared in case the negotiations failed.

But never did he expect that a report from the snake-people tribe would drive Yun Yun into a frenzy.

Looking at Yun Yun’s current appearance, she clearly intended to exterminate the entire snake-people tribe!

Peaceful negotiations?

This is no longer about peaceful negotiations!

There’s no choice but to consider this as directly flipping the table.

With a helpless bitter smile, Gu He suddenly raised his eyebrows and glanced sideways.

There, a snake-people tribe member was swiftly swimming, heading towards the direction of the Rock Desert City.

Through the lenses, Gu He’s eyes showed a hint of doubt.

Because the report clearly stated that all eight tribes of the snake-people tribe had been withdrawn to the Sacred Land. Therefore, Yun Yun hadn’t seen a single snake-people tribe member along the way, which made her furious.

Feeling Yun Yun’s aura, she should have already reached the snake-people tribe’s Sacred Land. Why would a snake-people tribe member suddenly emerge from such a critical point?

Moreover, judging from the strength that Gu He sensed from the snake-people tribe member, it should only be a Da Dou Shi (Battle Grandmaster, 4th Level). How could their speed be so fast?

“Gu He!”

Suddenly, Feng Li’s voice interrupted Gu He’s thoughts, and Gu He’s eyebrows suddenly furrowed.

Has Yun Yun already started fighting?

And the other aura, much stronger than Yun Yun’s, among the snake-people tribe, there was only one person with such strength.

Queen Medusa!

“Let’s go quickly!”

Gu He couldn’t care less about the snake-people tribe member who had inexplicably emerged. He urged Feng Li and Yan Shi to accelerate.

Not only because he had a favorable impression of Yun Yun, who had come to help him this time, but also because Yun Yun had come to assist him. If she died here, not only would Gu He be unable to rest easy, but the Yun Lan Sect would definitely not let him off!

Even if he was an Alchemist!

As for Yin Ke, he completely didn’t notice the three Dou Wang (Battle King, 6th Level) powerhouses who flew past his head. He was full of excitement, swimming quickly towards the direction of the Rock Desert City.

The envoy of the Mo Family had actually been living in the Rock Desert City!

From this point of view, the trading station established by Xiao Li in the Rock Desert City could also be considered as helping Yin Ke in a way. It allowed Yin Ke to go to the Rock Desert City openly to sell information to the Mo Family envoy.

But because of the report from Yin Shi yesterday, which prompted the snake-people tribe to withdraw to the Sacred Land, this also made Yin Ke’s distance from the Rock Desert City too far, making it difficult for him to pass on information to the Mo Family envoy in a short time.

The Mo Family Patriarch naturally knew about this problem and ordered the Mo Family envoy to relocate to one of the tribes where the snake-people tribe had withdrawn, which was quietly informed to Yin Ke before the snake-people tribe withdrew to the Sacred Land.

In addition, the Mo Family specially gave him a pill that could increase his walking speed, in order to facilitate Yin Ke to pass on information to the Mo Family envoy.

Based on the various reasons above, Yin Ke was able to reach the location of the Mo Family envoy in a short time.

After arriving at the location, Yin Ke leaned against his body, gasping for breath intensely. After all, swimming such a long distance without rest, even with the help of the pill, still made him feel extremely tired.

After breathing smoothly, Yin Ke swam his tail and passed several houses stacked with stones, finally stopping in front of a door further inside, and knocked on it.

“Who is it?”

A gloomy voice came from inside, and Yin Ke immediately answered.

“Yin Ke.”

After speaking, Yin Ke took two steps back, and then the door was pushed open, revealing a one-eyed man wrapped in a white robe standing in front of Yin Ke.

This attire was exactly the same as the white-robed figure who had slaughtered the Yakachi Tribe that day!

In addition to him, Yin Ke also saw nearly ten white-robed people in the room, all staring at him dead, each holding their weapons, emitting a strong murderous aura.

Feeling this tense atmosphere, Yin Ke couldn’t help but swallow his saliva and retract his gaze, looking at the one-eyed man in front of him, rubbing his hands lightly.

“Hehehe— Lord Envoy, I have confirmed it just now, the reconciliation between humans and the snake-people tribe is absolutely impossible—”

“Hold on for a second.”

The one-eyed white-robed man suddenly interrupted Yin Ke’s report and pointed behind Yin Ke.

“Is that child with you?”

Child?

Yin Ke suddenly froze, turning his head slightly to look behind him.

Then he saw a human child with blue hair tied in braids standing there, one hand in his pocket, and the other hand holding an apple, leisurely nibbling on it.

This scene left Yin Ke completely dumbfounded.

Why is there a child here?

Just then, a voice that sounded familiar to Yin Ke suddenly rang out.

“I finally found you, scum of the snake-people tribe.”

With the sound of this voice, a female snake-people tribe member appeared in the air, flapping her wings of Dou Qi behind her.

Seeing this female snake-people tribe member, Yin Ke was completely stunned.

Mei Snake Tribe Leader, Yue Mei?! Isn’t she supposed to be dead?!

“Run!!!”

Fear flashed in the eyes of the one-eyed white-robed man, immediately making a decision, pushing Yin Ke away and fleeing.

As a Dou Ling (Battle Spirit, 5th Level), how could he possibly defeat Yue Mei, a Dou Wang (Battle King, 6th Level)?!

However, just as the one-eyed white-robed man took a step forward, his legs suddenly covered with frost.

What’s this?!

The one-eyed white-robed man immediately reacted, looking in shock at the human child who was eating an apple there.

The child’s pupils suddenly dilated!

And besides the one-eyed white-robed man, the white-robed people in the room, who hadn’t had time to escape, also had their lower bodies frozen into blocks of ice, unable to move!

This child is a Dou Huang (Battle Emperor, 7th Level)!!!

In the midst of the one-eyed white-robed man’s shock, Yin Ke, who realized that the report was false and that he had been exposed, immediately fled from the tribe.

However, just as he took two steps, a human teenager suddenly appeared in front of him, one hand gripping his neck, and slammed him to the ground fiercely!

Crimson-eyed, the teenager stared fiercely at Yin Ke, emitting an invisible dark aura. His clothes were still damp in the desert, with a slight layer of frost on them, and his black and ferocious face was comparable to an ancient savage beast!

The Xiao Family, Xiao Yan!!!
