Chapter 199: Good Treasure!
Outside the Medusa Temple, the massive body of the Black Scale Frigid Python coiled in the void.
A dense and ominous aura lingered over the outer walls of the city.
Wearing a silver mask, Gu He, with his hands behind his back, stood quietly on the Black Scale Frigid Python.
On top of the city walls, numerous Snake People guards, wielding sharp weapons, had serious expressions, staring intently at the figures in the air.
Some Snake People guards who had survived the battle from three months ago looked at Gu He standing on the Black Scale Frigid Python, their eyes revealing traces of fear.
This scene was eerily similar to three months ago!
This damn demon had actually come again!
Looking at their comrades around them, these surviving Snake People guards sighed in their hearts.
They wondered how many of their people would survive this battle.
"Why is there no movement?"
Gu He, standing on the Black Scale Frigid Python, looked at the Medusa Temple, which had been silent for a long time, with a hint of doubt in his eyes.
"Could it be that Queen Medusa is not here?"
Just as he was wondering, Gu He suddenly made a surprised sound.
Under the influence of his powerful soul perception, he sensed a formidable aura rapidly approaching from the Medusa Temple.
"Could it be that Queen Medusa has broken through?"
Gu He speculated for a moment, then shook his head.
"No, this is not Queen Medusa's aura."
Gu He quickly distinguished that the person who reached the Dou Ancestor level was not Queen Medusa by the unique aura she exuded.
As these thoughts flashed through Gu He's mind, a stream of light shot out and quickly landed in front of the Black Scale Frigid Python.
"Snake People Elder?"
Looking at the old man in front of him, Gu He quickly recognized this defeated subordinate.
The Snake People Elder stared coldly at Gu He. "You scoundrel, you dare to come to our Snake People again."
"Why wouldn't I dare?"
Hearing this, Gu He felt a hint of confusion. He then looked at the Elder and smiled, "Congratulations, Elder. I didn't expect that at your age, you could still make a breakthrough."
The Elder responded indifferently, "It's all thanks to your Green Core Lotus Flame. Without it, all four Elders of our Snake People would have fallen into your hands."
"So, it was the Green Core Lotus Flame's credit."
Hearing this, Gu He had a moment of realization.
This Snake People Elder indeed had some ability. He was able to leverage the opportunity provided by the Green Core Lotus Flame to break through the bottleneck of the Dou Ancestor level in one go.
Of course, this was related to the accumulation of profound foundations through long-term cultivation. It wasn't something that everyone could achieve.
Gu He didn't care much about this. A mere One-Star Dou Ancestor wasn't worth paying attention to.
He looked at the Snake People Elder calmly and asked, "Where is Queen Medusa? I came this time as agreed. Please inform her."
Gu He's attitude was very polite. He wasn't the kind of person who became arrogant and domineering after gaining strength. Most of the time, Gu He dealt with people and matters with a calm attitude.
Of course, the incident of seizing the Green Core Lotus Flame was an exception.
Even so, Gu He had shown a measured attitude in that case as well. The Snake People suffered heavy casualties in the end, but Gu He felt that it was the Snake People who forced him into such a situation.
Unfortunately, the Snake People Elder still held a deep grudge against him. Upon hearing his words, his expression became increasingly indifferent.
"No need to meet with our Queen Majesty. Just hand over the Green Core Lotus Flame, and it will be considered a return to the rightful owner."
"Hand over the Green Core Lotus Flame?"
At this moment, Gu He finally reacted and looked at the Snake People Elder.
This old man seemed unfriendly. Hadn't the lesson from the last time been deep enough? Did they want to experience it again?
Thinking of this, Gu He sighed inwardly.
Why force me like this?
Ah, I really wanted to be a good person.
"Elder, in my opinion, you should call Queen Medusa out."
Gu He raised his head, his expression no longer gentle, and his tone became indifferent.
Thinking of the dream of the little girl Qinglin, Gu He hesitated for a moment and decided to give the Snake People a chance.
Unfortunately, the Elder of the Snake People was destined not to appreciate Gu He's goodwill.
"It seems you have no intention of handing over the Green Core Lotus Flame?"
The Elder glared coldly at Gu He.
"In that case, I'll have to take action myself."
As she spoke, the Elder's aura surged, and the powerful aura of a Dou Ancestor erupted.
"Oh, I'd love to see how you plan to take action, Elder."
Gu He looked at the Elder with indifference, sighing inwardly.
Qingling, oh, Qingling.
In the future, you'll have to liberate the Snake People on your own.
Your master doesn't have the ability for that.
Gu He looked at the Elder, and a hint of mockery gradually appeared on his face.
He was curious why this old woman, a mere One-Star Dou Ancestor, dared to provoke him so arrogantly.
"Arrogant!"
Seeing the disdain on Gu He's face, the Elder scolded angrily.
Then, a green bead suddenly appeared in her palm.
"Today, I will teach you a lesson!"
"For the humiliation you brought to our Snake People that day, I will make you pay!"
With the Elder infusing Dou Qi into the green bead, a dazzling green light suddenly burst forth, illuminating the entire sky.
"The Snake Spirit Bead, activate!"
The Snake People Elder cast a strange seal with her hand. The green bead vibrated suddenly and, in the next moment, autonomously suspended above her head, enveloping the Elder in a brilliant green light.
"What is this..."
Gu He looked on calmly as the Elder performed, curious about the identity of the mysterious green bead.
"Hehe, this is our Snake People's sacred artifact."
"Thief, today I will make you pay for the humiliation you brought to our Snake People!"
With the Snake Spirit Bead above her head, the Elder laughed triumphantly.
"Don't worry, I will spare your life in consideration of that Green Core Lotus Flame."
"But I will break your limbs and throw you into the Snake Pit, subjecting you to the pain of being devoured by ten thousand snakes."
The Elder's face revealed a vicious look, and her aura suddenly soared.
Two-Star Dou Ancestor!
Three-Star Dou Ancestor!
Four-Star Dou Ancestor!
After a moment, the Elder's aura had reached the level of a Four-Star Dou Ancestor.
Seeing this scene, Gu He's eyes revealed astonishment.
"This Snake People actually has such a treasure?"
"Good stuff!"
Gu He's eyes sparkled, focusing on the bead above the Elder's head.
"Thief, prepare to die!"
At this moment, the Snake People Elder, with the green bead above her head and a majestic aura, turned into a streak of light and charged at Gu He.
Gu He finally came to his senses, looking at the charging Snake People Elder, and a playful smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.
Then, Gu He activated the abundant Dou Qi in his body and casually struck out a palm toward the Elder.
In an instant, accompanied by the terrifying energy of heaven and earth gathering, a gigantic palm print descended toward the Elder.
Smack!
In the Elder's shocked eyes, the giant palm print directly descended.
In the next moment, a figure flew out, crashing at high speed into the nearby city wall, their life or death uncertain.
At the same time, a green bead appeared in Gu He's palm. It was none other than the Snake Spirit Bead that the Elder had just had above her head.
Gu He looked at the green bead in his hand with joy.
"Good treasure!"
"To think it can elevate a One-Star Dou Ancestor to a Four-Star Dou Ancestor."
"I didn't expect such a treasure from a mere Snake People."
Gu He marveled, admiring the bead in his hand.
After appreciating it for a moment, Gu He then turned his attention to the Snake People Elder, who had already been dug out by the Snake People guards not far away.
"Black Scale, you must be tired after all this. Go feast on a snack."
"Understood, Master!"
Upon hearing this, the Black Scale Frigid Python beneath Gu He's seat trembled, and its massive body moved swiftly toward the city wall, opening its huge mouth towards the Snake People Elder.
"Show mercy!"
At this moment, an anxious voice echoed, and a figure rushed out of the Medusa Temple.
"Finally couldn't resist."
Watching the figure rushing out, Gu He's lips curled up slightly, his expression full of amusement.
