Chapter 20, Green Scales

Ning instructed everyone to keep the fact that Medusa's evolution was imperfect a secret, and that it must never be leaked.

The outside world now believes that Medusa has successfully evolved, hence their fear.

But those people didn't know that her soul fusion was imperfect.

Many factions have become more vigilant because of Medusa's evolution.

If they knew at this time that Medusa's condition was very unstable.

They might join forces and take advantage of the situation to completely crush the snake people!

Therefore, the news that Medusa's evolution was imperfect must never be allowed to spread.

However, unless there is a traitor among the snake people, or the humans have sent someone in specifically to gather information, this news will not be spread.

Ning Su is already preparing her next steps.

"Little Black, are you going to the Gama Empire?" Flower Snake was very surprised.

This is a sensitive time. What is he going to the Gama Empire for?

"I need to help the Queen find the recipe for the Soul Fusion Pill. Besides, humans have many methods, so maybe they have other ways to fuse souls."

"We snake people have no choice now. We can't just sit here and wait, can we?" Ning said.

"But the Gama Empire is currently on our guard..."

"Sister Xiaohua, I can now fully transform into human form. As long as I don't reveal my true form, no one will recognize us," Ning said.

What else did Flower Snake want to say?

Ning interrupted her again: "Don't worry, Sister Xiaohua. Even if I'm discovered, there aren't many people in the entire Gama Empire who can keep me here."

Yunshan, a powerful figure in the Jia Ma Empire, has already gone into seclusion, leaving only Jia Xingtian who can pose a threat to him.

He didn't take anyone else seriously.

Hua She'er still wanted to persuade Ning Su to stay, but couldn't find a good reason.

In the end, they had no choice but to agree.

"By the way, I don't plan to take the Queen out; she'll stay here."

The Seven-Colored Sky-Swallowing Python and Medusa are currently in unstable condition, so staying with the Snake-People tribe is the safest option.

If you take it out, the Seven-Colored Sky-Swallowing Python will suddenly be exposed, which will cause a lot of trouble.

"Are you leaving the Queen behind? I thought you were going to take the Queen with you, so that you could deal with danger together."

"I'm going to the Gama Empire to find a solution, not to attack the Gama royal family. The Queen's condition is so unstable right now, it's not safe to take her out."

"All right."

Fortunately, the Seven-Colored Sky-Swallowing Python listened to Flower Snake.

Ning Su also specially left a few fire lotus seeds in case she couldn't coax the seven-colored swallowing python.

After doing all this, Ning Su officially left the Snake-People tribe and set off for the Gama Empire.

……

Stone Desert City.

"Xiao Yanzi, are you sure you want to leave? Why not stay a few more days?"

Xiao Ding and Xiao Li looked at Xiao Yan with some reluctance.

The three brothers had only managed to spend a few days together before they had to part ways again.

Xiao Yan nodded: "Yes, Nalan Yanran and I made a three-year agreement, so we can't waste time here."

The trip to the desert snake people was a major blow to him.

Not only did they fail to obtain the Azure Lotus Earth Core Flame, but they were also severely injured by the combined attack of Medusa and Ning Su, the two pythons.

It took him five days to fully recover from his injury.

It's a classic case of trying to steal a chicken but losing the rice instead.

"If Nalan Yanran knew your current cultivation level, I wonder if she would regret it so much she'd turn green with envy," Xiao Li said with a smile.

Xiao Ding patted Xiao Yan on the shoulder: "Don't worry, Xiao Yan, no matter what, your older brother and second brother will always support you."

"Yes, thank you, eldest brother and second brother."

"By the way, where's Qinglin?"

Xiao Yan wanted to say a final goodbye to Qing Lin, but he didn't see where the little girl was.

"Oh, Qinglin had something to do today and went out with other people. We didn't know you were leaving today, so we didn't let her stay," Xiao Li said.

"Never mind then, just tell her for me when she gets back."

"OK."

After the three brothers exchanged a few final words, Xiao Yan left Stone Desert City alone.

……

outside the city.

Because of the recent events involving the Serpent People, the cities near the Tagor Desert are now all guarded by the army belonging to the Gama royal family to prevent any unforeseen circumstances.

However, the military personnel were only responsible for monitoring the actions of the snake people and did not interfere much with ordinary people entering and leaving the city.

Snake people are quite easy to distinguish from ordinary humans; most people can't blend in.

The desert not far outside the city.

A small squad of the Desert Iron Mercenary Group is rushing back to Stone Desert City.

The latest novel is first published here!

Qinglin followed at the back of the group, and couldn't keep up with the pace.

Her companions were all fighters or masters, but she had little cultivation.

She could barely keep up even on a normal journey.

"Hurry up, everyone behind!"

The squad leader shouted.

Qinglin gritted his teeth and desperately followed.

Although Xiao Yan's arrival brought Qing Lin back some attention within the Mo Tie Mercenary Group.

But most people still don't have a good attitude towards her—a creature that combines snake and human blood shouldn't exist in the first place.

Especially for people living in desert cities, their aversion to this heretical bloodline is ingrained in their bones.

It was Xiao Ding and Xiao Li who took in Qing Lin.

But if they weren't there, the others wouldn't have been very nice to Qinglin.

Qinglin knew that these people didn't like her, but in order to survive, she could only endure this grievance and live a difficult life.

"Bang!"

A streak of blood-red battle aura suddenly shot out from the front, landing on the desert and kicking up countless grains of yellow sand.

Everyone immediately stopped.

A large group of people emerged from the surrounding sandstorm and surrounded them.

The leader recognized these people immediately.

"Rob?! What does your Sand Mercenary Group mean by this?"

The newcomer was none other than Rob, the leader of the Sand Mercenary Group, one of the three major mercenary groups in Stone Desert City!

The people who came around were all elites from the Sand Mercenary Group.

"I'm here to find that little girl named Qinglin behind you. Hand her over, and you can leave." Rob's gaze fell directly on Qinglin.

The little girl suddenly felt a wave of fear.

The others, however, were skeptical: "You're not here to steal anything?"

"I, the commander, mean what I say. You either leave the people here, or we all die here," Rob said.

The members of the Desert Iron Mercenary Group exchanged glances, somewhat unable to fathom Rob's thoughts.

But if they were to fight, they would definitely be no match for Rob.

Rob's target was only Azure Scale.

They glanced at Qinglin, and finally chose to silently retreat to the side.

Incredulity flashed in Qinglin's eyes.

"don't want……"

They were clearly from the same mercenary group, yet these people chose to abandon her?!

"Qinglin, it's better for you to sacrifice yourself than for all of us to sacrifice ourselves."

"You should be grateful that you, with your snake-human bloodline, can still be of use in times like this."

Those people showed no intention of saving Qinglin; they turned and ran...
