Serpent Maiden Yue Mei! Gu He Reveals His Presence!

Little Fairy Doctor and Qing Lin were both astonished, captivated by the brilliant, fiery scene before them, causing them to pause.

"Let me show you something big!"

Gu Fei smiled, then dove straight into the magma. Before long, he emerged, pulling out the Two-Headed Flame Spirit Serpent from within the magma.

He then stimulated Qing Lin, triggering the effects of her "Triple Jade-Green Snake Flower Pupils" physique.

"Oh my gosh, Qing Lin, you can actually tame a fourth-rank magical beast..."

Seeing Qing Lin successfully tame the Two-Headed Flame Spirit Serpent, Little Fairy Doctor felt genuinely happy for her.

Afterward, Gu Fei briefly explained the "Triple Jade-Green Snake Flower Pupils" physique to them.

This terrifying-looking, cunning, and deceitful Two-Headed Flame Spirit Serpent, after being tamed by Qing Lin, stood quietly in place without moving, making Qing Lin feel it was somewhat obedient.

A faint smile appeared on her face.

In that simple smile, there was a sense of acceptance of her own bloodline and snake-like eyes, as well as gratitude towards Little Fairy Doctor and Gu Fei.

Qing Lin feels grateful; Emotion value +70

Gu Fei glanced at her discreetly, noticing how she seemed to have shed all her burdens, her face full of a relaxed smile, which made him feel quite happy as well.

Then, with Qing Lin commanding the Two-Headed Flame Spirit Serpent to lead the way, Gu Fei easily reached the place where the Green Lotus Core Flame was born.

He effortlessly retrieved the Green Lotus Platform and Core-Fire Lotus Seeds, storing them all in his storage ring.

"Brother Gu Fei, did you find the Heavenly Flame this time?" Little Fairy Doctor asked expectantly as she saw Gu Fei return.

"No, I didn't."

Gu Fei shook his head and took out a colorful scale, saying, "This scale was left behind by Queen Medusa. It seems the Heavenly Flame here was already claimed by her. Looks like we'll have to visit the Snake-People Tribe!"

"Oh, that's a bit disappointing."

Little Fairy Doctor felt a bit regretful, knowing that Gu Fei had come here specifically to search for the Heavenly Flame.

Qing Lin also understood that perhaps the powerful presence she sensed half a year ago was indeed Queen Medusa.

Afterward, the three of them returned to the inn in Rock Desert City.

After they freshened up, Gu Fei knocked on the door of the room shared by Little Fairy Doctor and Qing Lin.

With a serious expression, Gu Fei made Qing Lin feel a bit nervous.

"Qing Lin, since you possess such a powerful physique, you are a great candidate for cultivation. From now on, I will teach you how to cultivate," Gu Fei said earnestly.

"Yes!"

Qing Lin nodded seriously, her heart full of gratitude and joy.

Now, she would have the strength to protect Brother Gu Fei and Sister Little Fairy Doctor!

After Gu Fei finished teaching Qing Lin, Little Fairy Doctor finally spoke up, sharing something she had been thinking about for a long time.

"Qing Lin, I actually have a special physique too, one that most people fear and detest. It's called the Woeful Poison Body."

She explained in detail the threats the Woeful Poison Body posed to those around her and its terrifying hidden dangers.

Little Fairy Doctor wasn't sure if she was comforting Qing Lin or simply voicing the deep-seated fears she had kept hidden for so long.

She was terrified that one day, everyone around her would come to hate her, and she would eventually be killed by her own Woeful Poison Body.

But looking at Qing Lin, Little Fairy Doctor felt a sense of relief.

Qing Lin finally learned about Little Fairy Doctor's Woeful Poison Body.

No wonder Little Fairy Doctor had always avoided physical contact with her.

Sometimes, when Little Fairy Doctor subtly dodged her touch, Qing Lin would feel hurt, wondering if Little Fairy Doctor was starting to dislike her.

Knowing about the dangers of the Woeful Poison Body, Qing Lin began to worry for her.

At this moment, Gu Fei suddenly spoke up, "Don't worry, I have a way to solve Little Fairy Doctor's problem."

"However, it will require a lot of materials. Once we find the Heavenly Flame, I'll search for those materials and try to resolve it as soon as possible."

"Really?"

Hearing Gu Fei's words, the gloom in Little Fairy Doctor's eyes disappeared, replaced by surprise.

The hidden fear behind her bright smile was something Gu Fei noticed clearly.

But he didn't say anything, waiting for Little Fairy Doctor to speak up on her own.

Only this way could she fully resolve her inner conflict.

Little Fairy Doctor feels hopeful; Emotion value +100

After hearing Gu Fei's words, Little Fairy Doctor's eyes lit up, a smile unconsciously forming on her lips, her purple eyes almost glowing.

Qing Lin was also genuinely happy for her.

...

Next, the three of them spent two days in Rock Desert City preparing, buying plenty of supplies as backups. Little Fairy Doctor and Qing Lin also happily explored all the stalls and shops.

Finally, Gu Fei decided to set out for the desert region occupied by the Snake-People Tribe.

This time, after leaving Rock Desert City, Gu Fei summoned the Amethyst Winged Lion King.

Qing Lin looked puzzled as Gu Fei and Little Fairy Doctor paused their journey.

Little Fairy Doctor occasionally looked up at the sky, as if waiting for something.

"Brother Gu Fei, Sister Little Fairy Doctor, why aren't we moving?"

Little Fairy Doctor smiled mysteriously.

"You'll see soon enough."

Then, in the distance, a massive flying magical beast sped toward them in the sky, leaving Qing Lin stunned.

That gigantic creature circled above them a few times before slowly descending, eventually landing firmly on the ground.

Qing Lin feels shocked; Emotion value +70

"Qing Lin, this is Brother Gu Fei's flying magical beast. Isn't it impressive?" Little Fairy Doctor explained with a smile.

Qing Lin feels shocked; Emotion value +70

Seeing the little girl in a daze, Gu Fei couldn't help but smile.

He helped them onto the back of the Amethyst Winged Lion King, and Qing Lin finally snapped out of her daze, looking around excitedly.

As the Amethyst Winged Lion King soared into the sky, Qing Lin, like Little Fairy Doctor on her first ride on the lion, was thrilled the entire way.

Following the map, Gu Fei and his group flew for an entire day, finally reaching the territory of the Snake-People Tribe.

Since they had two women with them and had traveled a long distance, Gu Fei found an oasis to stop at, allowing them to bathe in the lake.

"This place is the territory of our Mei Snake Tribe. Please leave immediately!"

The massive figure of the Amethyst Winged Lion King naturally caught the attention of the Mei Snake Tribe as soon as they entered the area.

However, facing a sixth-rank magical beast, the tribe's initial tone was not particularly harsh but rather polite.

"If you don't want to die, scram!"

The lion king let out a furious roar.

With a flap of its wings, several members of the Mei Snake Tribe were blown away.

Under the overwhelming strength of the lion king, none of the snake people dared to approach again.

Meanwhile, about a hundred miles away in another part of the desert, another battle was taking place.

On one side was Yue Mei, the leader of the Mei Snake Tribe.

On the other side was Gu He and his group, who had come to the desert in search of the Heavenly Flame.
