Chapter 69 Medusa Attacks
In a cave deep in the Tagor Desert, Qing Lin was waiting anxiously. Before he knew it, Xiao Se had been there for almost an hour, but there was still no sign of him returning.
Moreover, half an hour ago, the magma seemed to be rioting, but fortunately, it quickly calmed down, otherwise her petite and fragile body would have been swallowed by the magma.
Suddenly, a strong and strange breath surged into Qinglin's heart, and there seemed to be a hint of blood in the breath. It was obvious that the owner of this terrifying breath had killed many people, very many people.
Feeling the owner of the breath approaching rapidly, Qing Lin was overwhelmed with emotions, but he could do nothing and could not help but feel despair.
She only had the third level of fighting spirit, and could not move an inch in this magma world. If she returned the same way, she might collide with the owner of this spirit, which would be tantamount to walking into a trap. Moreover, she had a premonition that the owner of this powerful spirit seemed to have discovered her.
"Big brother, come back soon!"
In desperation, Qinglin could only pray silently in his heart, praying that Xiao Se would return first, so that the two of them could hide in the vast sea protective shield, and even the owner of that breath would never be able to discover them.
In the underground tunnel.
Medusa was moving quickly in the dark and smooth passage. Her palace was not far away, so it took her less than half an hour to reach the place where the strange fire disappeared.
The dark passage was so tortuous that she was sure that even if someone had obtained the strange fire, it must still be inside.
Suddenly, Medusa's body froze slightly. She felt a familiar breath and couldn't help but murmur: "This is a snake man... No... Not completely, it seems to be half snake man."
After saying this, Medusa was shrouded in red light. The surrounding space suddenly twisted strangely and she instantly disappeared into the dark passage.
On the other side, in the underground magma world, Xiao Se, who had already obtained the Green Lotus Earth Core Fire, was returning by grabbing the tail of the two-headed fire spirit snake.
As for the strange fire, he couldn't put it in the storage ring, storage belt, and Ruyi Treasure Bag. He wouldn't just hold them in his hands foolishly, so he put them into the system warehouse.
"Brother, we will be able to go out in less than half an incense stick." Longkui's soft voice suddenly rang in his heart. There was a hint of joy in her voice. It was obvious that Xiao Se was able to obtain the strange fire so smoothly this time, which made her very happy.
As soon as these words fell, the faces of Xiao Se and Hong Kui both became solemn.
The former saw through his X-ray vision that a red dot was rapidly approaching Qinglin at a speed so incredible that it could be said to be a space jump, while the latter sensed it through his soul power.
"Brother, it's bad. An extremely strong aura is rapidly approaching Qinglin." Hongkui in the magic sword reminded urgently.
"I felt it too. Long Kui, please take me up quickly." Xiao Se sent a voice message to Long Kui.
"Leave it to me, brother!" As the words fell, Hongkui floated out from the magic sword pattern on Xiao Se's right hand, grabbed Xiao Se's waist, and flew towards the exit quickly, leaving the two-headed fire snake far behind.
At this moment, both sides were competing in speed to see who could reach Qinglin first.
In the cave, a delicate and tender voice suddenly echoed.
"Little girl, what are you doing here!"
As the words fell, the space in the air in front of the end of the passage where Qing Lin was suddenly twisted strangely.
Looking at this scene, Qinglin's green pupils suddenly shrank, and she subconsciously took a few steps back but accidentally tripped over the protruding rock behind her. She sat down on the ground, supporting herself with her jade hands, her delicate little face filled with fear.
Under Qinglin's terrified gaze, a graceful figure slowly emerged from the distorted space and appeared in the dungeon.
The beautiful woman suddenly appeared, wearing a red dress. Under the dress, she had a nearly perfect body, plump and graceful, like a ripe peach, sweet and delicious, exuding a faint charm. Under the dress was a purple snake tail that exuded a faint fragrance, supported by the woman's fighting wings, swinging in the air at will.
This is a woman who can be described as enchanting, yet at the same time she has a touch of the nobility and grace of a queen.
At this moment, even Qing Lin guessed the identity of this woman: Queen Medusa of the Snake People.
"This is." Medusa looked at Qinglin, who was sitting on the ground in fear, with an indifferent expression. A hint of surprise suddenly flashed in her beautiful eyes. When her eyes noticed the three tiny green dots in Qinglin's emerald green eyes, the surprise quickly turned into shock.
"No wonder you, a half-snake man, have survived to this day. Your eyes seem extraordinary. But it's a pity that you are still too immature now." Medusa murmured softly, ignoring the restraint of the Green Snake's Three-Flower Pupil on snake beasts, and slowly approached Qinglin. With a wave of her jade hand, red fighting spirit enveloped Qinglin, and Qinglin's body stood up automatically, slowly floating in front of Queen Medusa.
"Little girl, I want to ask you, who brought you here and where did that person go?" Medusa asked coldly.
As a top Douhuang warrior, Medusa could see through Qing Lin's cultivation at a glance. With this almost negligible strength, even with his very strange "double pupils", he would never be able to pass through the winding passage to get here.
"I don't know." Although Qinglin was very scared, she absolutely could not betray Xiao Se, the only person in the world who was truly kind to her and treated her as a normal person and even a relative.
Seeing Qinglin's stubborn look, Medusa frowned slightly and spoke again: "Little girl, my patience is limited. If it weren't for the fact that you hold half of my people's bloodline, you would have been a dead body."
"I don't know what you are talking about." Qing Lin lowered her beautiful green eyes and spoke tremblingly. There was a trace of despair and reluctance in her beautiful eyes. She finally met someone who was really good to her, but she didn't expect that he would die so soon. Qing Lin was reluctant.
Under the magma, Xiao Se and Hong Kui watched quietly everything happening in front of them. After all, he was still a step too late. In terms of strength, the current Hong Kui might be comparable to Medusa, but Medusa not only had a shorter distance, she also seemed to have mastered some secret method of space teleportation, and was teleported in front of Qing Lin in an instant.
Although Medusa was his goddess in his previous life, he really couldn't be happy in this situation.
Taking out the magic sword and looking at Hongkui beside him, Longkui understood what he meant, nodded lightly, and turned into a red light, attaching to Xiao Se's body.
Xiao Se did not choose to launch a sneak attack. If he had done so, with Hong Kui's ability, he probably wouldn't have been able to kill her, but the probability of severely injuring Medusa was still very high. However, this meant that the fight would continue until the death, and Qing Lin might very likely be affected.
