Chapter 310: I Told the Truth, But You Didn't Believe Me!
As the remnants of the energy clash dissipated, all eyes turned to the massive, blood red serpent revealed within none other than the ever troublesome Twin Headed Fire Spirit Snake, affectionately dubbed "Lil' Fire" by Wu Tian, the guardian spirit lord.
At this moment, however, it was in a pitiful state.
Half of its once smooth, crimson scales had been blasted apart by the terrifying attack, revealing deep wounds that bled profusely, the droplets falling like a light drizzle onto the ground below.
Its massive body writhed mid air, and both of its huge mouths were wide open, furiously cursing at the old bastards from the Yun Lan Sect.
"You bunch of old fossils! How dare you gang up on me?! Once I recover, I'll flatten your entire sect! Argh damn it!"
"Hsss !"
With a sharp flick of its forked tongue, the massive serpent plummeted toward the ground.
"THUD SSSHHH!"
The sound of something crashing into water echoed as the Twin Headed Fire Spirit Snake dove into a dark, steaming pit and disappeared.
At the entrance of the hole, however, a muffled, grumbling voice drifted up.
"Oi, you dumbasses from Yun Lan Sect, you're so dead! Hey, you old guys, I'm leaving this to you. If you don't finish them off, when I come back, I'll burn off all your hair!"
The three elders of the Snake People Tribe sighed and shook their heads.
Compared to this rowdy magical beast, they really were just old men.
But… why did being called "old guys" feel so damn uncomfortable?
The Great Elder twitched at the corner of his mouth, shaking his head helplessly.
"Don't worry," he said flatly, "they're all as good as dead."
"Queen Medusa and the Guardian Lord have returned. The two Dou Zongs, the ten Dou Huangs, and the thousands of Yun Lan Sect disciples that attacked the Mittel Family were all wiped out by the Guardian Lord alone!"
"..."
"..."
Silence.
Utter, absolute silence.
Because that statement was just too shocking!
Even the previously boisterous Twin Headed Fire Spirit Snake suddenly froze inside the magma.
Two Dou Zongs?!
Deep within the lava realm, the serpent's two massive heads twitched, and in its mind, it couldn't help but praise itself for its brilliant decision making.
Damn, I'm a genius!
Turns out, the Guardian Spirit wasn't lying he really was an absolute monster!
In such a short time, his strength had grown to the point of instantly killing Dou Zongs?!
How could anyone believe that wasn't a power recovery, but actual growth?
No matter how talented someone was, it was impossible to reach the level of slaughtering seventh rank magical beasts in just one year!
And not just one…
Yun Leng: …
Protector Wu: …
We feel like you're cursing us, but we have no proof.
Meanwhile, back in New Desert City, the moment the crowd heard the Great Elder's words, tears of joy filled their eyes.
Jia Ma Empire… was saved!
Queen Medusa and the mysterious Guardian Lord had returned in triumph what was Yun Lan Sect now?
"WOAHHHHHH!!!"
Thunderous cheers erupted through the city, as lively as a New Year's celebration.
It was an insult to the remaining Yun Lan Sect elders and disciples.
But at this point, they didn't care anymore.
Because if what they just heard was true…
Then they were all as good as dead.
"Hmph!"
A cold snort echoed from above.
At the center of the cloud mist, Yun Hai stood, his old face full of disdain.
Pointing at the Snake People Tribe's elders, he sneered:
"Stubborn old snakes! You're on the brink of death and still spouting nonsense! So what if you saw through our diversion? You think you can fool us with your pathetic lies?!"
"Hah! By now, the Mittel Family is already gone! HAHAHAHAHA!"
His wild laughter spread through the air, and behind him, the other elders and disciples suddenly realized something.
That's right!
These Snake People warriors were here, meaning they must have figured out the diversion tactic!
Otherwise, how could they have returned so quickly?
They had arrived in secret, aiming to capture the Xiao Clan while the Snake People's defenses were weakened.
But when they got here, they found no one from the Xiao Clan.
And now, the Snake People warriors had returned which meant that Mittel Family must be wiped out!
They were absolutely sure that their side had won.
After all, the attack on Mittel Family was led by Great Elder Yun Leng and five Dou Huangs.
Aside from Yun Shan, there were only two Dou Zongs in Yun Lan Sect!
So how could two Dou Zongs and ten Dou Huangs have been wiped out?!
What a ridiculous lie!
"HAHAHAHA! Elder Yun Hai is right! These Snake People liars are just trying to shake our confidence!"
"Hmph! Mittel Family is gone. Right now, they're probably eliminating the Mu Clan and next will be the royal family!"
"Soon, once we bring back the Xiao Clan, we'll activate our hidden forces within the empire's military. Once we control half the army, the Jia Ma Empire will be ours! HAHAHAHA!"
The disciples and elders burst into laughter, and one of the three star Dou Huangs even boasted arrogantly.
Hearing this, the rest of the Yun Lan Sect disciples were ecstatic.
If what he said was true, then Yun Lan Sect would become the rulers of Jia Ma Empire!
Just like the Cloud Mist Empire, where a sect ruled a nation, they too could conquer neighboring kingdoms!
Yun Lan Sect would become one of the greatest powers on the continent!
"HAHAHAHAHA!!!"
The Yun Lan Sect disciples erupted into laughter, their voices filled with arrogance.
Meanwhile, the Snake People Tribe's elders and commanders exchanged helpless glances.
All of them stared at the Yun Lan Sect like they were looking at a bunch of absolute idiots.
Were these guys seriously this dumb?
How could they delude themselves so much?!
"Ahem… You guys really did lose two Dou Zongs, ten Dou Huangs, and thousands of disciples."
The "kind hearted" Great Elder spoke genuinely.
"Bullshit! You think we'd fall for your lies? Trying to shake our morale?! Since you've all gathered here, you've just saved us the trouble of hunting you down! Kekekekeke~"
"All of you… DIE!"
Yun Hai swung his palm, and another colossal energy sphere condensed in the sky!
The air trembled, and with a mighty push, the massive sphere shot toward the Snake People warriors!
"Sigh~ I told the truth, but you didn't believe me. Well, guess we have no choice… kekekeke~"
"Sigh~ Great Elder, I think their brains have already been fried by Yun Shan and the Soul Hall. We should just put them out of their misery…"
"Kekekekeke~ DIE!"
