Chapter 157: Utter Terror Descends Upon Yan City
Hearing the sounds coming from inside the tent, Wu Tian's eyes gleamed with curiosity.
What was Qing Lin doing in there?
Could it be…
Before he could dwell on the thought, the tent's entrance was lifted, and Qing Lin walked out holding a grape between her lips!
"A grape?"
Wu Tian's expression turned odd.
So, Qing Lin had just been… eating grapes inside?
After being repeatedly kicked by Wu Tian, the Twin Headed Fire Spirit Serpent had completely lost its once majestic demeanor.
Not only did it look at Qing Lin with submission, but it also showed the same respect toward Hai Bodong.
"Big Fire, Little Fire, you two are so obedient!" Qing Lin giggled, looking at the two massive serpents.
Little Fire: I've always been obedient!
Big Fire: Do I even have a choice? If I get kicked again, I'll die!
This guy doesn't follow any rules at all! If he had just told me he was a Dou Zong, would I have even tried to fight?
I'd have never left the magma! I'd rather die of old age in there!
Their journey to the cave had been peaceful.
But their return was an entirely different story
A Mid Stage Six Star Magic Beast and a Four Star Magic Beast traveling together this lineup alone was enough to destroy an entire city with ease.
For Little Fire's sake, Wu Tian and Qing Lin sat atop Big Fire's head, making their way back to New Desert City.
Along the way, they encountered many adventurers in the Tagor Desert.
The moment these people spotted the terrifying duo of serpents, they screamed in terror and fled without even noticing Wu Tian and Qing Lin sitting on top.
By the time they reached the gates of New Desert City, the scene was even more terrifying.
With two Dou Wang protectors absent, the entire city panicked, believing the apocalypse had arrived.
They were certain their fate was sealed.
But just as terror was at its peak, Wu Tian flew down from the serpent's head, carrying Qing Lin in his arms.
The moment the people recognized him, they all fell to their knees in submission.
By now, everyone in New Desert City knew who he was.
Anyone foolish enough not to recognize their Guardian Spirit would get themselves kicked out of the city or worse.
No one dared to risk offending him.
Qing Lin commanded the two serpents to enter Magical Beast Forest instead of staying in the city otherwise, the residents wouldn't get a single night of sleep.
Upon returning to the temporary base at the Desert Iron Mercenary Group, Wu Tian waited for Mo Bas and Yin Shi to return.
The moment they arrived, they would march toward the Mo Clan.
Why hadn't Wu Tian simply gone there alone with Qing Lin?
That should be obvious.
As the Guardian Elder of the Snake Tribe, how could he personally carry out a massacre without any sense of grandeur?
A true boss needed to have his subordinates handle such matters.
By nightfall, under the glow of the moon, Mo Bas and Yin Shi finally returned.
They weren't alone
Alongside them were three additional Snake Tribe leaders: Yan Ci, Hei Du, and Mei Xing.
Among them, Yan Ci was the strongest, while Hei Du and Mei Xing were only slightly weaker.
With five Dou Wang level commanders, they were about to annihilate the Mo Clan.
Of course, Wu Tian had also considered the possibility that the Tian Snake Mansion might interfere so bringing reinforcements was simply a precaution.
The Mo Clan's headquarters was located in Yan City, the largest city in the eastern region of the Jia Ma Empire.
If one walked the entire way, the journey would take nine days.
If flying normally, it would take two days.
But these were not ordinary travelers.
Wu Tian left Little Fire in charge of protecting New Desert City, while Big Fire carried them all toward Yan City at full speed.
As a Mid Stage Six Star Magic Beast, Big Fire was stronger than a Late Stage Dou Huang.
Its speed was beyond imagination.
A fiery red streak blazed across the night sky, disappearing beyond the horizon in an instant.
What should have taken a full day was completed in less than half a day.
Under the moonlit sky, several streaks of light flashed past.
Yan City the largest city in the Jia Ma Empire's eastern provinces was a fortress under heavy imperial guard.
Apart from imperial forces, its most dominant faction was the Mo Clan.
With support from the Misty Cloud Sect, the Mo Clan controlled 60% of Yan City's industries.
Even the Jia Ma Empire's royal family avoided provoking them.
But tonight…
They had offended the wrong person.
The outline of Yan City appeared in the distance, shrouded in an aura of suppressed dread.
Under the moonlight, the most terrifying man in the Jia Ma Empire descended leading a battalion of elites.
"SWOOSH SWOOSH "
Two streaks of light flashed across the sky.
"ROOOOAAARR!!!"
The deafening roar of a six star magical beast echoed through the city.
Instantly, Yan City was thrown into chaos.
Strong cultivators rushed out of their homes, leaping onto rooftops to gaze at the sky.
And when they finally saw what was above them
They were utterly terrified.
In the air, a monstrous Twin Headed Fire Spirit Serpent loomed over the city, its lava like scales gleaming ominously.
And standing atop its head
Five Dou Wang level Snake Tribe leaders had spread out, encircling the entire city.
"FIVE Dou Wang powerhouses?!?!"
"Are they here to DESTROY Yan City?!"
"MOTHER TAKE ME WITH YOU!!!"
Panic spread through the city.
Even Yan City's City Lord a Nine Star Dou Ling was trembling in absolute terror.
He was powerful, but not enough to resist Dou Wang level opponents.
And there were FIVE of them.
Not to mention…
A Mid Stage Six Star Magic Beast.
But the worst realization was yet to come.
On the serpent's head, a beautiful young girl stood beside a young man.
The girl's presence was deceptive she exuded no powerful aura, appearing to be nothing more than a weak Dou Shi at best.
But the next moment
She spoke.
"Big Fire, let's go down."
The massive serpent obeyed instantly, descending toward the ground.
Everyone watching fell into pure shock.
"A young girl… commanding a Six Star Magic Beast?!"
"Who the hell IS she?!"
As the serpent landed, the young man's features became clear to the entire city.
The moment they saw his face
Their blood ran cold.
There was only one man in the Jia Ma Empire who could command the Snake Tribe's Dou Wang powerhouses.
The Guardian Elder of the Snake Tribe.
Wu Tian.
Yan City's City Lord, standing in front of the Mo Clan's estate, was trembling violently.
Wu Tian smiled at him warmly.
"Hello there! Could you tell me where the Mo Clan is?"
The City Lord:
"S S SHHHH !"
And then
He pissed himself.
