Chapter 123 Although the body has shrunk, but...
Inside a cave in the Tagor Desert.
"Buzz—"
The spatial fluctuations on the communication artifact slowly subsided. Yao Chen, with a thoughtful expression on his face, casually tossed the artifact pendant to Xiao Yan.
"Master, is Yuhao in trouble again?" Xiao Yan asked immediately after seeing Yao Chen hang up the communication device, while reaching out to catch the communication device.
As a result, Xiao Yan was a step too slow. The pendant drew a beautiful arc in the air and hit him squarely on the forehead with a loud thud!
"Hiss—!" Xiao Yan winced in pain, grabbed the pendant, put it into his storage ring, and rubbed the rapidly swelling red bump.
"It's not trouble," Yao Lao smiled, a glint of light flashing in his eyes, as if mocking Xiao Yan: "It's not trouble, it's an opportunity! That kid Yuhao always manages to stumble upon some unexpected things."
Just then, a blue streak of light shot into the cave. When the light faded, it revealed a little boy, about seven or eight years old, with a scar on his face.
"Are you done talking? Time to run!" Despite his childlike appearance, his voice was surprisingly mature: "The snake-men are already three miles away. If we don't leave soon, we'll be surrounded!"
At this moment, his little face was tense, and he tried his best to look serious. Unfortunately, the purple fruit pulp left at the corner of his mouth and the sugar stains with sand on them completely ruined his seriousness, making him look particularly comical.
"You bastard! Didn't you promise there wouldn't be any problems?"
"Senior Hai Bodong—" Xiao Yan looked at the face and couldn't help but take out a handkerchief. He knelt down, somewhat amused and exasperated, and wiped the man's face clean. "This was an accident! Who knew Queen Medusa wouldn't survive her tribulation!"
This child, Hai Bodong, the Ice Emperor of the Jia Ma Empire, unexpectedly turned into a child after consuming the Broken Calamity Pill, which had been tampered with by Yao Chen and Xiao Yan.
Although his body had shrunk, his strength remained formidable! After chasing Yao Chen and Xiao Yan for a while, he finally agreed to go with Xiao Yan to search for the Strange Flame, however—
"An accident?" Upon hearing this, Hai Bodong's face immediately fell, and he glared at Yao Chen with deep resentment: "Isn't it all that old man's fault! If you're not confident, don't even mention a deal—"
Yao Chen coughed awkwardly twice, trying to save face: "Ahem. Well, it's not a complete failure, is it? We brought out the Strange Flame successfully, didn't we? Queen Medusa—uh, she left behind a snake, which can be restored later—"
"How dare you say that!" Hai Bodong's face flushed red with anger, and he was about to spit again from the corner of his mouth, which he had just wiped clean. "She's only at the fifth rank now, the strength of a Dou Wang! Is this a reverse breakthrough? A peak Dou Huang breaking through to a Dou Wang?"
Just now.
boom-!!!
Hai Bodong's accusation was interrupted by a deafening roar! The entire cave shook violently, and rocks rained down!
The mountain above seemed to have been cleaved open by a giant axe, and blinding sunlight poured down instantly, turning the cave into a ghastly white! Amidst the billowing smoke and dust, several figures of different colors, exuding terrifying pressure, could be seen hovering high in the air; it was they who had just flattened the mountaintop!
"Die, you traitors!" The leader, a burly snake-man elder with a face as black as iron, his eyes bloodshot, spoke in a voice like rolling thunder, filled with grief, rage, and murderous intent. "How dare you use the guise of helping to plot against my snake-man queen! Today, I will grind you to dust!"
Before the words were even finished, several snake-men Battle Emperors and Battle Kings simultaneously unleashed their power! The violent battle energy, like a boiling tsunami, instantly swept across the sky, and the space itself crackled under the immense pressure!
Suddenly, a series of ferocious giant snakes, formed from various types of battle qi, appeared out of thin air, carrying an aura of destruction, and pounced down on the three survivors in the cave!
Xiao Yan and Hai Bodong reacted extremely quickly, spreading their wings at the same time and instantly transforming into two streaks of light as they rushed out of the collapsed cave, narrowly avoiding the bites of countless giant snakes.
While dodging awkwardly, Xiao Yan shouted loudly, "Elders and leaders of the Snake-People Clan, this is a misunderstanding! Please let me explain!"
"A misunderstanding?" The black-faced snake-man elder was filled with grief and indignation, pointing at Xiao Yan and roaring, "You must have tampered with things at the crucial moment of the Queen's tribulation, causing the strange fire to backfire! Otherwise, why would Her Majesty the Queen—you were just trying to steal the strange fire!"
"Calm down, Medusa isn't dead yet!" Hai Bodong shouted.
Another leader of the Snake-People tribe interrupted Hai Bodong: "Hai Bodong! Stop making excuses! Wasn't it enough that you killed the Queen's sister back then? Now you're resorting to the same old tricks to murder my Queen! This is an irreconcilable feud!"
"What did you say?!"
The snake-man leader's words directly touched the most untouchable sore spot in Hai Bodong's soul! His childlike, innocent face instantly twisted, erupting with a chilling rage completely out of character! His blue-green pupils instantly turned dark blue!
"Say it again!" Hai Bodong's voice was as cold as ice from the depths of hell, each word deliberate and each syllable carrying a killing intent that could freeze the soul! His figure vanished from the spot.
The next moment, she appeared like a ghost in front of the arrogant Fighting King leader! A small, fair hand, now filled with extreme anger, gripped the other's throat tightly!
How could it be so fast! The leader of the Dou Wang faction instantly turned purple, his eyes filled with horror!
"stop!"
"court death!"
Several sharp beams of battle qi tore through the air and slammed towards Hai Bodong's back!
A cold glint flashed in Hai Bodong's eyes. He threw the almost suffocating Dou Wang in his hand to the ground like a broken sack. At the same time, a pair of huge, crystal-clear ice wings unfolded behind him with a "whoosh" and flapped violently.
Hai Bodong's figure instantly rose higher into the sky, narrowly avoiding all attacks.
"I didn't kill Xiaodie!" Hai Bodong hovered high in the sky, letting out a heart-wrenching roar, his voice filled with endless pain!
At this moment, Hai Bodong's fighting spirit surged wildly, and he formed a claw with one hand, making a grasping motion in the air. Ice-blue light flashed wildly at his wrist, and several profound ice formations instantly took shape.
The primordial energy of heaven and earth converged wildly, and the terrifyingly low temperature caused ice crystals to condense in the air of the desert below!
"Fine! Let's fight first and then explain!" Seeing this, Xiao Yan knew that explaining was hopeless, and his eyes blazed with fighting spirit!
Seeing this, Yao Chen smiled faintly, and his soul instantly disappeared into Xiao Yan's body.
Instantly, Xiao Yan's aura surged like a volcanic eruption, breaking through the Dou Wang barrier and stabilizing at the Dou Huang level!
The purple cloud wings on her back were replaced by more magnificent bright red flame wings!
Phew—!
A clear and melodious phoenix cry resounded through the sky! Xiao Yan flew to Hai Bodong's side, his hands clasped in front of his chest. The bright red Nine-Fold Phoenix Flame and the pale white Bone Spirit Cold Flame rapidly merged and compressed in his palms, emitting an aura of world destruction!
