Battle Through the Heavens: Purple Heaven Thunder Emperor

Chapter 90 Come on! Let's hurt each other!

Deep in the Tagor Desert, the Snake People, in their holy city.

This is a city built of megaliths, and some huge stones still remain around the city, suggesting that the city was built using local materials.

Unlike the luxurious and refined architecture of the Gama Empire, the architecture here is rugged and exudes a wild feel.

A colossal temple rises from the ground in the city center, the tallest building in the entire holy city.

At this moment, on the roof of a side hall of the temple, Xiao Bai was admiring this exotic city under the moonlight.

After arriving in the holy city, Medusa arranged for him to stay here, and three days have passed in the blink of an eye.

The woman said she needed to settle matters within the clan before attempting a breakthrough, and that it would take some time. Xiao Bai agreed.

He knew that Medusa needed to arrange everything for the snake people before she could focus on evolving!

Seeing her resolute expression, Xiao Bai knew that she wasn't very confident about this evolution. To some extent, this woman had already prepared for the worst and was ready to go all out!

If successful, the Snake People may fulfill their long-cherished wish, leave the Tagor Desert, and find a suitable habitat!

If they fail, the Snake People will decline and eventually become like some other races that have disappeared into the long river of time on the Dou Qi Continent, becoming a race that only appears in some books!

Shouldering the rise and fall of an entire race on one's own shoulders—although Xiao Bai has never experienced this, he knows how difficult it is!

"You've come!" Xiao Bai didn't turn around; he knew who was behind him.

"Hmm!" Medusa came to Xiao Bai's side, handed him a jade bottle, and said calmly, "This is the Ice Spirit Cold Spring you requested!"

Xiao Bai took it and put it into his storage ring. He didn't need it; he just wanted to make a trip to the Snake-People Clan. Although Yao Lao didn't complain at all, Xiao Bai still asked Medusa for some of it to appease him.

Anyway, this isn't anything precious to her. This woman has a huge pool of icy spring water, and who knows if it even has a source!

As for the risk of being exposed, Xiao Bai didn't care at all. Who in the world could subdue a strange fire without using this thing!

Medusa's cold and beautiful face showed signs of fatigue. She hadn't rested at all in the past few days since she returned, and her expression seemed hesitant to speak.

"I may need three months to settle matters within the tribe. What about you?" Medusa hesitated, unsure if Xiao Bai would give her that time.

Seeing that Xiao Bai didn't speak, she secretly gritted her teeth, feeling a bit bitter, and sighed helplessly in her heart.

"Fine, I'll hurry! I'll try to handle this as quickly as possible!"

This was all too sudden. She had to make proper arrangements for the snake people and even consider the situation after her own demise. Three months was the fastest she could manage, and she hadn't even thought about making any preparations for her own evolution.

"Can!"

"What?!" Medusa was a little taken aback.

"I said, okay!" Xiao Bai said calmly. Three months is enough time. After returning, there is still more than a month before the Xiao family's coming-of-age ceremony. There is no problem with the time.

Medusa turned and stared at Xiao Bai for a moment, then whispered a barely audible thank you!

"You're welcome! It's not free!" Xiao Bai grinned, a sly glint in his eyes.

"A fee?" Medusa's face froze, somewhat taken aback.

"Hmm! I want medicinal herbs and magic cores of rank four and below, as many as you can get!" Xiao Bai said with a smile, looking at the queen who looked particularly alluring in the moonlight.

"Alright! I'll have someone prepare it and send it to you tomorrow!" Medusa agreed without hesitation. She didn't care about these things; for the snake people, the most important thing was herself.

As long as she remains queen, the snake people will never fall!

Given her personality, this is the first time she has ever asked for a favor. If it weren't for the sake of her clan, she wouldn't have made this request.

Xiao Bai's exchange in the form of a transaction made her feel a little better.

"Think more about yourself. Only by breaking through and becoming stronger can you better protect what you want to protect!"

Seeing the weariness in her eyes and the fact that she had set aside her pride to speak to him for the sake of her clan, Xiao Bai said softly.

Medusa stood with her hands behind her back, her eyes gazing at the myriad lights of the holy city below. She remained silent, and for a moment, the roof of the side hall fell silent.

The two stood atop the palace, gazing at the city, each lost in their own thoughts.

After a while, Medusa moved slightly and disappeared from the rooftop, her clear, cold voice faintly carried on the wind.

"Thanks!"

Xiao Bai shook his head, a slight smile playing on his lips. What a proud and arrogant woman!

"Tsk tsk. Xiao Bai, are you planning to provoke yet another one?"

The old doctor sighed. This guy had only been out for a short time, and he already had two. It seemed like he would provoke one every time he went somewhere.

"Seeing such感慨 (feelings of deep emotion) from you, you must have had your own story to tell. Could you perhaps share some of your experiences?"

Xiao Bai smiled slightly. There were some things about Yao Lao that he couldn't confirm yet. If it was really as he thought, then that old guy had spent far more money than him.

"Ahem. I am devoted to cultivation; how could I possibly concern myself with matters of the heart!"

The old apothecary was just sighing when he heard this, and his expression turned strange. He said urgently.

"If you're focused on cultivation, then focus on cultivation! What's the rush?"

Xiao Bai said with a hint of amusement, "Judging from Yao Lao's expression, could that rumor really be true?"

"Who's in a hurry? I'm just... I'm just..." The old man didn't say anything for a long time.

"It reminds me of those days!" Xiao Bai coaxed gently.

"Yes, I just remembered something's not right. You little brat, are you trying to trick me?" Yao Lao said, somewhat embarrassed and angry.

"Don't be shy! Senior, why don't you tell me about your past experiences and pass on some advice?" Xiao Bai laughed heartily.

"Heh, you should think more about what you're going to do after you go back to the Xiao family! Your little girlfriend is no simple woman!" Old Yao couldn't stand his smug look and sneered.

He knew that the Golden Emperor Burning Heaven Flame was the inherited flame of that clan. If that little girl was really from that clan and had the clan's inherited flame within her body, her status in that clan must be extraordinary.

If everything is true, based on his understanding of that kind of family, they are absolutely arrogant. It's already incredibly difficult for Xiao Bai to marry that little girl, let alone have his cake and eat it too!

"Hehe, come on! Let's hurt each other!" Yao Lao thought disdainfully as he looked at Xiao Bai, whose laughter had abruptly stopped.

With my centuries of experience, I don't believe I can't subdue you, kid. Laugh, what are you laughing at!

"Sigh!" Xiao Bai sighed, thinking of that little girl for a moment, feeling a little melancholy.

Ling Ying must have already sent her a message. She must know what she needs to know. She must be very angry!

Xiao Bai was deliberately avoiding thinking about this troublesome problem.

But when the old doctor suddenly pointed it out, he was at a loss for what to do!

I long to have the aura of domineering power that makes everyone kneel in submission, just like those male protagonists in novels from my past life!

"Master Yao, how did you solve this kind of problem back then?" Xiao Bai asked with some worry.
