"Yes."
Xiao Fan nodded.
"This energy is probably due to an incomplete cultivation technique or a lack of compatibility with him. It is hidden in his battle qi and is constantly accumulating in his body, which in turn affects his personality."
Moreover, because of this mismatch in energy, the battle qi within his body is not solid. What I need to do now is to continuously refine it and remove this unstable factor from his body.
"Once the energy within him is cleared and his battle qi is solidified, his strength should see a significant improvement."
Upon hearing Xiao Fan's words, everyone looked at Yan Ci in the arena and discovered that wisps of faint red energy were constantly evaporating from his body, which were then blocked and collected by Xiao Fan with an invisible flame.
Having understood Xiao Fan's meaning, everyone looked at Yan Ci with a hint of envy.
After all, Yan Ci was already at the peak of the Dou Wang realm. Since he was able to achieve a significant improvement, he must have stepped into the Dou Huang realm.
Without saying a word to disturb them, time quietly passed.
About an hour later, no more red energy appeared in Yan Ci's body. Xiao Fan waved his hand, and the invisible flames disappeared instantly. Then, he flicked his finger, and a pill fell into Yan Ci's mouth.
Halfway through the process, Yan Ci understood Xiao Fan's meaning. At that moment, the invisible flames in his body disappeared, and he sat cross-legged on the ground, absorbing the surrounding battle qi.
Under everyone's watchful eyes, Yan Ci's momentum gradually increased, marching towards the peak of Dou Wang and constantly challenging the barrier of Dou Huang.
"Click...click..."
Once, twice... after who knows how many times, a very crisp sound seemed to come from Yan Ci's body, and Yan Ci's aura gradually rose.
The Battle Emperor has been achieved!
Chapter 303 Recognition
Despite being prepared, the leaders still showed expressions of envy when they clearly saw Yan Ci break through to the Dou Huang realm.
Their strength had been stagnant at the peak of the Battle King realm for a long time. The fact that they were able to sit in the position of tribal leader was enough to prove that they were among the best in the Snake-People tribe, both in terms of bloodline concentration and talent.
Having stayed at the peak of Dou Wang for so many years, everyone was putting in their best effort to break through to Dou Huang. However, they all knew in their hearts that they were just a little bit short of a breakthrough to reach Dou Huang, but such a breakthrough was not something that could be encountered at any time.
To reach the Douhuang realm, without a suitable opportunity, one can only rely on their own powerful talent to overcome all difficulties. Just like You Ruo, who relied on her talent, coupled with the training of the previous Snake-People Queen, to overcome obstacles and reach the Douhuang realm.
However, people like Yin Shi and Mo Bass clearly do not have the same powerful talent as You Ruo, otherwise they would not have remained at the peak of the Dou Wang level for so many years.
The human boy the Queen brought back at this moment was not only powerful himself, a Dou Huang expert, but also the most prestigious alchemist on the Dou Qi Continent. Now he had helped Yan Ci officially enter the Dou Huang realm. These were all real benefits to the Snake-People race. Yin Shi and the others had no objections to Xiao Fan.
Even Mobas's gaze towards Xiao Fan was no longer hostile, but rather tinged with respect.
In the Serpent People race, strength reigns supreme, and this is the most powerful saying.
It didn't take long for Yanci's momentum to gradually stabilize.
Yin Shi, Yue Mei, and the others were completely convinced of Xiao Fan's abilities.
Yan Ci, who had just broken through to the Dou Huang level, was focused on his internal body, but he was still aware of the situation outside. Although he didn't fully understand it, he knew the general situation that had just happened.
After concealing his aura, Yan Ci bowed to You Ruo and said respectfully, "Greetings, Your Majesty. Thank you, Lord Xiao Fan, for helping Yan Ci successfully break through to the Dou Huang realm."
You Ruo was overjoyed by Yan Ci's breakthrough. After all, the entire Snake-People race couldn't be supported by her alone, and she naturally hoped that there would be as many strong people in the race as possible.
"Okay, now, does anyone still have a problem with Xiao Fan?"
You Ruo nodded calmly, then looked at Mo Bass and his group and asked indifferently.
Although his tone was calm, everyone could feel the anger contained within it. They had given Xiao Fan a chance to show them what they were capable of, but Xiao Fan's performance had already demonstrated his strength.
If anyone still dares to oppose her, You Ruo wouldn't mind exercising her queenly authority to make them understand who is truly in charge among the snake people.
The reason she didn't stop Xiao Fan from making a move was twofold: firstly, to give the clan members an explanation and prove that her judgment was correct; and secondly, to ensure that Xiao Fan completely won them over. After all, You Ruo didn't want the clan members to speak ill of Xiao Fan behind his back in the future, as this could potentially create a hidden danger between her and Xiao Fan.
That's why You Ruo let them handle it themselves.
However, Xiao Fan has now demonstrated his strength. If these leaders continue to be short-sighted and obstruct him, You Ruo will not allow him to continue leading a tribe.
Such a short-sighted person, who disregards the big picture, will be a complete obstacle in the upcoming transformation of the Serpent People, and You Ruo will bring him down.
Upon hearing You Ruo's question, Yue Mei, Yin Shi, and the others bowed to You Ruo, and then gave Xiao Fan a slight bow, expressing their respect for him and indicating that they had completely accepted Xiao Fan's identity.
Everyone's gaze involuntarily turned to Mobas at the edge.
Feeling everyone's gaze, Mobas's lips twitched. He wasn't stupid; why would he go against Xiao Fan? The reason he was unconvinced earlier was simply because it was their first meeting and he had some reservations about Xiao Fan. Now that he had witnessed Xiao Fan's abilities, his reservations about Xiao Fan had disappeared.
"I only wanted to learn about you since it was my first time meeting you. As your subordinates, we have no right to interfere in the Queen's private affairs. I hope you will forgive me for what happened just now."
Mobas hugged Xiao Fan and said with a serious expression.
Want to see themselves make a fool of themselves? Mobas won't give them that chance. It's obvious that the Queen has already decided on this human. Anyone who goes against her now is just going against the Queen.
Seeing that even Mobas, who had initially been the most vocal critic, had changed his attitude, the crowd felt a pang of regret, even though they had expected it, as they had lost another chance to watch the show.
"Alright, since there are no objections, let me now discuss the future of the Snake-People race..."
Hearing that You Ruo was about to discuss serious matters with Mobas and the others, Xiao Fan no longer intended to stay there. He wanted to slip out and take a good look at the territory of the Snake People. After all, the last time he came here was when he was looking for the Azure Lotus Earth Core Flame. He was focused on the strange flame and naturally had no time to look at the surrounding environment.
Sitting above, You Ruo seemed to sense Xiao Fan's thoughts. She glanced at Hua She'er beside her, hesitating whether to let her take Xiao Fan out.
Although the Queen was very confident in herself, she still felt somewhat resentful when she thought of the Fourth Elder's words.
She was the queen of the snake people, how had she fallen so low as to have to send her maids over?
However, You Ruo thought for a moment and realized that Hua She'er was someone she had been with for a long time, and she knew her inside and out. Most importantly, Hua She'er was extremely loyal to her, so she would definitely know how to act. Therefore, You Ruo waved her hand and let Hua She'er take Xiao Fan out.
In truth, because You Ruo grew up in the snake-people tribe where strength was paramount, she wasn't particularly hard to accept the idea of men having multiple wives and concubines. It was simply because she was the queen of her tribe that no one could make her willingly share her man with other women. This was the pride that belonged to her as Queen Medusa.
So You Ruo didn't take the women who appeared around Xiao Fan seriously, including that girl she heard about in the inner courtyard of Canaan Academy before, I think her name was Yue Yao, right? She was just a little girl who hadn't even grown her hair yet.
After watching Xiao Fan and Hua She'er leave, You Ruo stopped thinking about the matter and started discussing serious business with Mo Bas and the others.
After all, she had been away from the Snake People for two years, and Yue Mei had only discussed many things with her in general terms yesterday. Moreover, Yue Mei was only very familiar with the situation of her own tribe, and her knowledge of the tribes of Yin Shi, Mo Bas, and others was limited. This is why You Ruo had to convene a meeting to find out more.
After all, she has now advanced to the Dou Zong level, and with the addition of the newly promoted Dou Huang Yan Ci, the strength of the Snake People has increased significantly. Naturally, they need to consider the future development of the Snake People. Just as they discussed with Xiao Fan, no matter how well the Snake People have adapted to the desert, they are still cold-blooded at heart. Only cold and gloomy places are suitable for their habitation.
Youruo's next plan is to use the strength of the Serpent Clan to tear a piece of flesh from the Jia Ma Empire. Of course, knowing the inherent flaws of humanity, Youruo will not pressure the Jia Ma Empire too much, otherwise, if the Jia Ma Empire directly overturns the table and lets neighboring countries intervene, the Serpent Clan will not benefit.
Do not doubt that once the Serpent People and the Gama Empire go to war, neighboring countries will be the first to 'enthusiastically' inquire whether the Gama Empire needs help. If the Gama Empire is weak, they might even use the excuse that 'in order to ensure the safety of the neighboring royal family, we have no choice but to enter the country' to deal with the Serpent People.
Then, after the war, they would claim that "in order to guard against the counterattack of the snake people" or "they were seriously injured during the support mission and need to recuperate before returning home," thereby tearing a piece of territory away from the Gama Empire.
Such tactics are highly likely to occur in warfare, especially since they would naturally stand on the moral high ground of "we are all human beings, and this is all for our comrades" once war breaks out.
Therefore, You Ruo had to consider how to make the Jia Ma Empire feel the Snake-People's determination to wage war and find a new home, while simultaneously getting the Jia Ma Empire to accept the Snake-People's demands. Finding the right balance was crucial, and this required not only considering the Snake-People's numbers and strength but also careful planning...
On the other side, Xiao Fan originally planned to sneak out on his own, but he didn't expect You Ruo to send Hua She'er to lead him. Although he was a little surprised, Xiao Fan did not object.
After all, Xiao Fan could tell the difference between a grown man shopping alone and shopping with a pretty girl... older sister. Although he didn't know Hua She'er's exact age, Xiao Fan was certain she was older than him, who was only twenty at the time.
As You Ruo's personal bodyguard and captain of the personal guard, Hua She'er's strength is comparable to that of the eight leaders. Most importantly...
As the leader of You Ruo's guards, Hua She'er's beauty is in no way inferior to Yue Mei's. Even compared to You Ruo, she is a match for her. Moreover, the three of them are beauties in different fields—oops, beautiful snakes.
Youruo is unapproachable, a graceful and noble flower on a high mountain; Yuemei is like a bewitching and charming fairy; Huashe'er, however, has a stubbornness and masculinity that rivals any man.
Hua She'er's appearance goes without saying. Among the snake people, apart from the queen, she and Yue Mei are known as the "two beauties of the snake people". Her beauty is naturally superior. In addition, because she has been in charge of the personal guards for many years, her figure looks even more agile than Yue Mei's.
Wait... Xiao Fan shook his head. Why am I comparing them together? Something's not right with me!
Xiao Fan felt a chill in his heart. He breathed a sigh of relief when he realized through the contract link that You Ruo seemed unaware. He then continued to openly observe You Ruo's guard leader.
Chapter 304 The Lineage of Array Formations
As one of the few females among the snake people, Hua She'er possesses the strength of a peak Dou Wang, and is in no way inferior to Yue Mei in either appearance or strength.
In fact, in the hearts of some snake people, Flower Snake's status is slightly higher than that of Moon Beauty.
why?
Have you ever heard of officials of the third rank standing before the prime minister's gate?
As the queen's chief guard, Flower Snake was someone who could be in close contact with the queen at any time. In the Snake People, whose entire tribe obeyed the queen's orders, being able to be close to the queen's chief guard was something that countless people envied.
Xiao Fan is currently under the spotlight.
As they traveled, the snake-people were astonished to see Flower Snake, the leader of the queen's personal guard, strolling around the tribe with a human man. The news quickly spread.
Xiao Fan looked at the increasing number of snake-people around him and shook his head helplessly.
I originally came out just to get some fresh air and observe the lives of the snake people, but it seems my plans are going to fall through.
"Let's go, change places."
Xiao Fan sighed helplessly at the flower snake, then flew away with it, leaving behind a ground full of snake people staring at each other in bewilderment.
"Then where are you going?"
Flower Snake followed behind Xiao Fan, curiously observing him. Even though she already knew about Xiao Fan's talent and strength, Flower Snake still found it hard to believe that he would be Her Majesty the Queen's future partner. Even though the clan elders had already agreed, she still found it difficult to accept.
After all, in her mind, Her Majesty the Queen should be the most noble queen in the heavens, and would not look down on ordinary people on earth, even if Xiao Fan was exceptionally outstanding.
In other words, Hua She'er is a die-hard fan of You Ruo and believes that no one is worthy of her Queen.
"Why don't you take me to see Her Majesty the Queen's palace?"
Upon hearing Hua She'er's question, Xiao Fan pondered for a moment, then his eyes lit up, and he spoke to Hua She'er.
To be honest, Xiao Fan was still very curious about You Ruo's palace and her previous living environment.
"impossible!"
As soon as Xiao Fan finished speaking, Hua She'er frowned and said coldly, "Her Majesty the Queen's palace is not a place you can just go to whenever you want."
