Chapter 47: The Queen Evolves, an Enchanting Scene!
Yue Mei's expression was more serious than ever before.
"The tribesmen reported that among that group, there was... a sixth-rank flying magical beast."
"A sixth-rank magical beast?"
"Why have these people suddenly gathered so many powerful beings?"
Mo Ba Si, the male serpent man, frowned deeply, his expression visibly more serious.
"Do you know the strength of the other people accompanying the sixth-rank magical beast?" Mo Ba Si asked, his eyes dark and brooding.
"There are two very weak young girls and a boy... My tribesmen couldn't see through his strength. They said that it seemed like he had no Dou Qi at all."
Yue Mei recalled the information from her tribesmen, her eyebrows tightly knit. She felt extremely wary of this mysterious boy who could tame a sixth-rank magical beast.
Moba Si asked in a deep voice, "Have you informed Her Majesty the Queen? What did she say?"
"I did inform her, but Her Majesty seemed very calm. She only asked me to send the information and summon you all," Yue Mei nodded helplessly.
Seeing Mo Ba Si's disbelief, Yue Mei was about to close her eyes when her expression suddenly changed. She abruptly stood up from her chair.
"They're here!"
As Yue Mei sensed the sudden appearance of several presences outside the city, Mo Ba Si also felt something.
His expression darkened as he exchanged a glance with Yue Mei, and the two of them immediately flashed out of the hall, quickly ascending into the sky.
Moments later, they arrived on top of the city wall, which was already in a state of emergency lockdown.
At that moment, outside the city wall, a giant magical beast hovered in mid-air, with several figures floating not far in front of it.
The newcomers were Gu He and his group, with Yun Yun, the only Dou Emperor expert he had invited, dressed in a black robe.
"Humans, why have you trespassed into our territory without permission?" Mo Ba Si shouted angrily.
"Hehe, you must be Mo Ba Si, the leader of the Mo Snake Tribe?" Gu He slowly stepped forward, smiling.
"Who are you?" Moba Si sneered.
"Hehe, I am Gu He," the middle-aged man replied with a slight smile.
"Gu He, the Pill King of the Jia Ma Empire? Heh, that name is well-known indeed." The name "Gu He" caused both Yue Mei and Mo Ba Si to be slightly surprised. Although the serpent people rarely acknowledged human experts, they had to give due respect to a master alchemist like Gu He, knowing the immense influence someone of his level could wield.
The island was surrounded by rippling water, with no bridges leading to it.
The lake seemed calm and peaceful, as if one could easily reach the island in the middle. However, the lake was equipped with anti-flight measures, and the water was even
poisonous.
Although Gu Fei could break these barriers, he chose to endure them to avoid alerting anyone.
If it were someone else, they might have been helpless against the lake's poison.
Gu Fei, however, chose to wrap his body in the Heavenly Flame and swam across.
The Sea Heart Flame, which he had acquired earlier, proved invaluable in this situation.
The flame emitted a faint blue light, enveloping his body, making Gu Fei appear as if he were
burning, yet unextinguished by the water.
Upon reaching the island, Gu Fei continued forward without pause.
Following the aura of the Heavenly Flame, he discovered a bamboo grove.
The closer he got, the stronger the aura became.
At the center of the island, in contrast to the surrounding area, lay an open, circular clearing.
The bamboo and flowers had been meticulously cleared, leaving only smooth, small stones
scattered around.
These stones formed a small, sunken pool.
The pool was filled with crystal-clear water, with white mist swirling above its surface.
In the center of the pool, on a lotus throne carved from a strange crystal, a blue flame slowly
flickered.
Hiding in a corner, Gu Fei suppressed all his aura, blending into the environment.
He knew his target was right there but didn't make a move.
Soon, a seductive figure appeared- it was Queen Medusa, preparing to use the Heavenly
Flame to evolve herself.
