Chapter 175: Subduing Yao Ming!



Gu Fei's footsteps stopped by the Nine Serene Springs, and he crouched down, placing his hand on the surface of the lake. In an instant, deep yellow ice crystals began rapidly climbing up his arm. Fortunately, with his heavenly flame, he immediately melted the forming ice.

"Cai'er, Ziyan, this place is extremely cold. Even the members of the Nine Serene Deep Ground Python Tribe can't endure it for long!"

"Therefore, unless there's a special reason, it's rare for anyone to come here."

"You two wait here; I'm going to the bottom of the Nine Serene Springs!"

"Be careful, my husband!"

With a splash, Gu Fei instructed the two and then plunged into the Nine Serene Springs, swiftly diving towards the bottom.

The coldness within the Springs was terrifying. Gu Fei had only descended a short distance before he realized that the chill could threaten even mid-level Dou Ancestor powerhouses. However, with his advanced Half-Saint cultivation, if he couldn't enter such a place, it would be laughable.

"Hiss!"

Soon, a faint hissing noise reached his ears, and Gu Fei noticed the water around him suddenly becoming turbulent.

In his sight, a mass of black mist was rapidly approaching from the depths of the Serene Springs. Upon closer inspection, the 'black mist' was actually countless small black snakes covered in eerie scales.

The hissing sound was made by these strange snakes.

"Sss! Sss!"

Before the snakes even got close to Gu Fei, they opened their menacing mouths, shooting out deep black water arrows. The whistling sound of these arrows resonated through the water, causing low, rumbling explosions.

"Get out of my way!"

Gu Fei released a few bursts of scorching energy, driving back some of the snakes. However, there were too many of them, so he didn't linger and accelerated downward.

Before long, he spotted a glimmer of light in the distance.

At this depth, the strange snakes seemed hesitant to follow, not daring to come closer.

"So, this is the bottom of the Nine Serene Springs?"

Soon, Gu Fei found himself on a vast, sandy seabed.

"Save... me..."

Suddenly, a faint voice echoed through the water, reaching Gu Fei's ears.

"If I ever see the light of day again, I'll make Yao Xiaotian's life a living hell!"

At the mention of Yao Xiaotian, Yao Ming's eyes turned blood-red.

Gu Fei was well aware of the enmity between the two. Yao Ming was the legitimate candidate for tribe leader of the Nine Serene Deep Ground Python Tribe, his power unquestioned. Yao Xiaotian, knowing this, had always shown Yao Ming great respect on the surface while secretly plotting against him.

Yao Ming had been sealed here for hundreds of years-a truly tragic fate.

"I will help you get out, but the fight for the tribe leader's position will be up to you."

Gu Fei sighed and agreed to Yao Ming's request.

"I possess the Nine Serene Profound Scepter, the token of the Nine Serene Deep Ground Python Tribe's leader..."

"As long as I escape the Serene Springs and deal with Yao Xiaotian, I will be the new tribe

leader!"

Hearing this, Yao Ming quickly showed Gu Fei the value he still held.

"Young friend, you just need to shatter the Yellow Springs Yin Stone, and I'll be free!"

"Alright."

Gu Fei nodded and located the other end of the four chains, where a powerful, cold-infused Yellow Springs Yin Stone was attached.

Bang!

After several attacks, the Yellow Springs Yin Stone finally shattered, and at that moment, Yao Ming exerted all his strength, breaking the chains.

Meanwhile, deep within the Nether Serpent Vein, in a grand palace, there was great

commotion.

On the throne sat a man dressed in black.

His eyes flickered with a cold, venomous light, like a deadly serpent ready to strike.

Beside him, two seductive women carefully massaged his body, while his hands roamed over

their soft, delicate skin.

"Hmm?"

Suddenly, the man's eyes shot open, filled with shock. "The seal... has been broken?"
