Battle Through the Heavens: Reborn as a Devouring Python, Medusa is taken home.

Chapter 26, An Unexpected Surprise: A Gift from Yan Li

"Why are you standing at the door? Come in."

Ning went into the room first, while Qinglin stood at the door, somewhat hesitant.

Finally, she mustered up her courage and went inside.

She breathed a sigh of relief when she saw the two beds in the room.

"You've traveled quite a distance today, so get some rest."

Ning put her things away, went to the window to look at the night outside, and thought about what to do next.

His goal is one of the prizes for the Alchemist Tournament champion—the recipe for the Spirit Fusion Pill.

There are only two ways to obtain the elixir formula.

One option was to win the Alchemist Tournament, but Ning Su wasn't an alchemist and didn't even qualify to participate, let alone win the championship.

The second option is to directly seize it – as long as Ning Su can defeat Jia Xingtian, Yun Yun, Fa Ma, and other powerful figures from various families in the Jia Ma Empire, he can obtain the formula for the Fusion Spirit Pill.

Of course, if he had that ability, he wouldn't need to wait here; he could just start snatching it right now.

Unfortunately, Ning Su didn't have that much ability.

We still need to think of other solutions.

"Young master, would you like to take a bath? I'll go and ask someone to bring you some hot water," Qinglin asked from the side.

She still prefers to take care of others.

Along the way, Ning Su told her several times that she would no longer be a maid or have to take care of others.

But Qinglin just couldn't change this habit.

In her words, if she can't take care of others, then she's essentially useless.

She didn't want to be a useless person.

Ning couldn't persuade her otherwise, so she had no choice but to go along with her wishes.

"Okay, have someone bring up some hot water."

"it is good."

Qinglin went out and downstairs.

"If we can't win the championship fair and square, and we can't steal it openly, then let's see if we can take it secretly."

Ning tried several methods, but none of them were satisfactory.

Just then, a few noises suddenly came from outside the door.

Qinglin had just returned from looking for the shop assistant when a young man blocked her way as she passed a room next door.

"Little sister, why are you here all alone? Do you want to come in and chat with your brother?"

"I don't know you." Qinglin frowned slightly, but dared not raise her voice too much.

"It's okay, we'll get to know each other after we come in and chat."

As he spoke, the young man reached out and tried to grab Qinglin directly.

But another hand grabbed his wrist, holding it tightly.

"Where did this thug come from, causing trouble here?"

"Ouch, ouch, ouch..." the young man quickly begged for mercy.

"roll!"

Ning Su tossed the young man aside and pulled Qing Lin back to their room.

I never expected there would be such thugs in Gama Holy City.

"Are you alright? Were you scared?" Ning Su let go of her.

Qinglin shook her head: "No."

"Once I finish what I'm doing, I'll teach you how to cultivate when we get back."

"If you encounter someone like that again, you can just kick him," Ning said.

"Yes, thank you, young master."

Qinglin held the wrist that Ning Su had just pulled, feeling a warm glow in her heart.

So this is what it feels like to be cared for and cherished.

……

The next room.

"You brat, why aren't you staying in your room? What are you doing out there looking for trouble?!"

A middle-aged man kicked the young man hard.

That young man was the one who had just harassed Qinglin.

"Teacher, I didn't mean to. I just couldn't resist because that little girl was so cute and pretty..."

"Everyone else likes women who are slender, mature and voluptuous, or beautiful and petite, but you like this kind of young girl!" The middle-aged man was so angry that he gritted his teeth.

"Everyone has different interests," the young man muttered to himself.

"I don't care how you got here in the Izumo Empire, but this is the Gama Empire. Don't forget our mission." The middle-aged man lowered his voice.

The young man lowered his head: "I know, it's just about disrupting the alchemist conference of the Gama Empire and making them lose face."

The two were not from the Gama Empire, but from the Izumo Empire!

That middle-aged man was Yan Li, the vice president of the Alchemist Guild of the Izumo Empire!

The young man beside him was his disciple, Tao Lian.

Yan Li's purpose for this trip was simple: to disguise himself and participate in the Alchemist Tournament, and win the championship based on his alchemy skills.

Finally, their identities were revealed, allowing countless people to witness the fact that the champion of the Alchemist Tournament of the Gama Empire had fallen into the hands of someone from the Izumo Empire.

The latest novel is first published here!

That would cause the Gama Empire to lose all face!

Yanli originally intended to come alone.

However, the situation in the Gama Empire has been turbulent recently, and its defenses are tight, so he decided to bring his disciples along.

Moreover, his disciples were considered alchemy geniuses in the Izumo Empire.

Tao Liannian was only twenty years old, yet he was already a peak third-grade alchemist.

Given time, he will surely become a fourth-grade alchemist!

Wouldn't it be even better if the master and apprentice could take first and second place in the Alchemist Conference of the Gama Empire?

However, Tao Lian almost ruined something important by going out to chat up a little girl.

"You'd better behave yourselves for the next few days. If our identities are exposed, our plan will fail!" Yan Li said sternly.

"And if the plan succeeds, my reputation in the alchemist community of the Izumo Empire will rise rapidly, and the position of guild leader will be mine."

"By then, my apprentice and I will be able to live a happy life!"

Tao Lian was intrigued by his grand promise: "Okay, I'll definitely help the teacher win the championship!"

The master and apprentice were filled with passion.

But they were completely unaware that there was another person in the room.

"So you guys had this kind of plan all along, this is some juicy gossip."

The sudden sound made the two of them turn their heads to look.

In the corner, a boy appeared silently.

"It's you?!"

Tao Lian recognized Ning Su immediately.

"You just flirted with that girl, you don't really think I'll just let it go, do you?" Ning Su looked at him with a half-smile.

"You people from the Izumo Empire are quite audacious, actually daring to do something like this."

Ning's overhearing was entirely accidental.

He originally just wanted to settle scores with Tao Lian—he didn't want to appear too fierce in front of Qing Lin earlier.

I never expected to overhear their conversation.

Yan Li's expression changed instantly.

"Kill him!"

Ning Su knew their identities and absolutely could not let them live!

The two attacked simultaneously, one on the left and one on the right, with lightning speed.

Ke Ning's upper body suddenly transformed into a giant snake head, which opened its mouth and swallowed Yan Li whole.

Tao Lian was so frightened that he collapsed to the ground on the spot.

Then Ning Su ate him too, so that the master and disciple could be reunited.

……

[Successfully devoured two poison masters; venom toxicity increased by 10%, poison resistance increased by 20%!]

[Ding! Successfully absorbed a Rank 3 alchemist; alchemy skill upgraded to Rank 3!]

[Ding! Successfully absorbed a peak fourth-grade alchemist; alchemy skill upgraded to peak fourth grade!]

Ning was startled.

There's an unexpected surprise!
