Chapter 121: Strange Fire Appears
Chapter 169: Appearance of the Heavenly Flame
"Apologies, Sect Master Yun Yun. We are just passing through and will leave shortly."
Having finally found Qing Lin, Lü Man did not want to create conflict with other forces at this moment.
Yun Yun nodded to Lü Man, then gave Yun Leng a cold look, before leading her group away.
If Gu He hadn't insisted that a Heavenly Flame was about to appear in the Tagor Desert, dragging her and many Dou Wangs who owed him favors along...
And if the First Elder Yun Leng hadn't inexplicably acted with official arrogance, foolishly rushing over to question Bai Ya, how could the two sides have come into conflict?
"Resolved?"
Mu Yang appeared beside the person and the snake, holding Qing Lin. Upon seeing Qing Lin, Bai Ya was first stunned, then exclaimed with great excitement:
"These are the Jade Serpent Three-Flower Pupils! Lü Man, let's go, let's just snatch her away!"
"Shut up, you stupid snake!"
Lü Man was almost fainted by Bai Ya. How could this stupid snake be so oblivious to the atmosphere, unable to see that she and Mu Yang were currently on friendly terms?
The poor laborers were already pitiful, and yet their colleagues weren't even human! Bai Ya was literally not human!
"Lü Man, you're going too far!"
Bai Ya was enraged. Although it wasn't very smart, that wasn't a reason for Lü Man to mock it repeatedly!
"Heh, talk to me when you actually become human."
Lü Man glanced at the other party disdainfully, then her expression suddenly became gentle, with a warmth in her eyes that Bai Ya had never seen before. She looked at Qing Lin and said softly: "This big snake with eight wings is called Bai Ya. Qing Lin, you can call it by its name directly, or you can call it Elder Bai Ya."
Woman, your name is fickle!
Lü Man's skilled face-changing technique left Bai Ya dumbfounded, but if the object of her transformation was Qing Lin, who was very likely to become the Saintess of the Heavenly Serpent Mansion, then it was quite reasonable.
With this in mind, Bai Ya tried its best to appear benevolent, but its triangular eyes, no matter how one looked at them, were filled with ferocity and cunning.
"Elder Bai Ya."
"Hello, hello."
Bai Ya's clumsy response showed how difficult it was for a snake to curry favor with others.
After the Yunlan Sect people left, Mu Yang and the others saw many figures with Dou Qi wings soaring across the sky above Mo City.
Among them, the First Elder of the Mittel Clan had somehow received news of Hai Bo Dong, traveled thousands of miles to find him, and finally brought Hai Bo Dong back.
Mu Yang discovered that the seal placed on Hai Bo Dong by Medusa had been broken, by whom and by what means he did not know.
He guessed that this person should be a puppet master, and most likely, it was her reward to Hai Bo Dong.

Description: Everyone wants a Heavenly Flame so badly, do you really think you can all subdue them?
Price: 1 paradise coin (cannot be taken out of this world)
Mu Yang looked at the Heavenly Flame Map and decided to go to a central location, so that no matter where the Green Lotus Core Flameappeared, he could quickly reach it.
"Let's go, to Shanshi City."
"You don't actually believe this Heavenly Flame rumor, do you?"
Bai Ya asked in surprise.
It could tell at a glance that the news of a Heavenly Flame in the Tagor Desert was purely false.
If there really was one, why would the person who discovered it not secretly try to get it themselves? Even if they couldn't handle it alone, they could find helpers. Why spread it so widely?
Except for the common people, all families with Dou Wangs knew about the Heavenly Flame in the desert. Wasn't this just shooting oneself in the foot?
"Is it possible that a companion betrayed them, so they released the news to retaliate against the other party, not wanting him to get the Heavenly Flame?"
"That makes sense too."
Bai Ya nodded thoughtfully.
"Let's ride Bai Ya there, it flies fast."
Because Mu Yang had given her the opportunity to win over Qing Lin, Lü Man tacitly agreed to help him with one thing to return the favor.
"Alright."
Bai Ya's flying speed was very fast, much faster than a Dou Huang of the same level, so it carried the three of them towards Shanshi City.
Even on the way, Mu Yang occasionally saw fleeting figures.
"Good heavens, are they all crazy?"
Bai Ya watched the Dou Wangs flying past it without any intention of slowing down, feeling its perception being somewhat challenged.
Since when did Dou Wangs dare to be so arrogant in front of it? If Lü Man hadn't stopped it, it would have elbowed the other party, making that Dou Wang crash from the sky.
Mid-flight, Bai Ya's body suddenly stiffened, and its flying motion paused, causing the three people on its back to instantly fall from the sky.
"...If you don't like me, you can just say so. You don't have to try to throw me to my death."
Lü Man said, exasperated.
"It's not my fault!"
Bai Ya, having adjusted its posture, flew up again and quickly explained.
"It's Qing Lin."
Looking at Qing Lin, whose eyes glowed with a faint light, Mu Yangknew this was a sign of the Jade Serpent Three-Flower Pupilsactivating.
And these miraculous pupils were the natural enemy of snakes. Even Qing Lin, with only Dou Qi cultivation, could control a snake race of the Dou Ling level, which was extremely heaven-defying, thus startling Bai Ya into an instinctive reaction.
At this moment, the three small green dots in Qing Lin's eyes had actually transformed into three tiny green petals, as if flowers had bloomed in her eyes, filled with a strange beauty.
"Can you close them?"
"I'll try."
Qing Lin's small face was flushed. After several attempts, the petals in her eyes reverted to small, seed-like dots.
After this small interlude, the three people and one snake successfully arrived at Shanshi City, quietly awaiting news of the Heavenly Flame.
At night, the city had fallen into slumber. Mu Yang, who was resting with his eyes closed, suddenly felt an unusual burning sensation.
It was very faint, but the aura was pure and strong, indicating that the source of this burning sensation was some distance away from him.
"It's here."
"What?"
Lü Man didn't react for a moment, but quickly thought of the Heavenly Flame.
"There really is a Heavenly Flame?"
Facing the question, Mu Yang didn't explain, but pointed to the sky in the distance.
Following Mu Yang's direction, Lü Man's pupils suddenly contracted, because she saw a large expanse of crimson-green in the dim sky. Intense flames rose and burned in the sky, venting thousands of years of accumulated fire. "Let's go."
Mu Yang woke the sleeping Qing Lin and led her towards the crimson-green sea of fire below.
Bai Ya, who could only stay outside the city due to its large size, also saw that extraordinary phenomenon that changed the color of the heavens and earth.
"Holy cow, there really is a Heavenly Flame!"
"Bai Ya, follow."
Seeing Lü Man's fleeting figure and familiar call, Bai Ya twisted its massive snake body and quickly caught up with Mu Yang and the other two.
"The commotion is huge, it seems this trip will be difficult."
Lü Man frowned.
Such a heaven-and-earth phenomenon would make even a fool realize there was a problem, let alone the various forces that had gathered in the Tagor Desert early on.
"Teacher!"
Xiao Yan, who had rushed to the desert with the help of Yao Lao, pointed at the conspicuous crimson-green sea of fire in the sky, his voice filled with excitement.
