Battle Through the Heavens: Marry Cao Ying, Reward is Devouring Ancestral Symbol

Flirting and banter, the Holy City of SnakesThe five of them, along with the Two-Headed Fire Spirit Snake, left the scorching underground world and returned to the desert surface, where yellow sand filled the sky.

The scorching sunlight poured down, a stark contrast to the stuffiness underground.

Medusa flicked her serpent tail lightly, her tone tense: ”Shen Wen, the matter of the exotic flame is settled. Now, can we discuss our business?”

What she was concerned about, naturally, was Shen Wen’s previous promise to help her purify her bloodline and break through to Dou Zong.

Shen Wen, hearing this, smiled casually and retorted: ”What, Your Majesty is already in such a hurry to issue a ’get out’ order?

Are you not planning to invite us to your Snake-People Tribes Sacred City for a visit?

I’d like to experience the customs and traditions of the Snake-People Clan.”

Medusa’s expression tightened, and her jade hand in her sleeve subtly clenched into a fist.

Inviting humans, especially humans of such sensitive identity, into the core territory of the Snake-People Clan was a great taboo for the tribe.

However, facing Shen Wen’s seemingly casual but actually undeniable gaze.

Thinking of the future of the Snake-People Clan and her own promise.

She found that she had no room to refuse at all.

This guy is so gentle with Cao Ying, yet so overbearing with her, doing everything in a way that allows no refusal!

”...Fine.” Medusa suppressed the complex emotions in her heart, her voice cold. ”This King shall invite you all to the Sacred City for a discussion.”

Shen Wen nodded in satisfaction, then turned to Xiao Ding, who was respectfully waiting nearby, and instructed: ”Xiao Ding, all matters here, including information about the exotic flame and the Snake-People Clan, must be sealed and not spread outside.”

”Rest assured, Sir, Xiao Ding understands!” Xiao Ding quickly bowed in response, his heart filled with awe, knowing that this matter was of great importance... The flying boat flew steadily towards the Serpent People Holy City.

Inside the cabin, Cao Ying had changed into her own dress, but the ’frank encounter’ scene from underground still lingered in her mind.

As soon as she saw Shen Wen, her seductive cheeks couldn’t help but flush.

Shen Wen naturally took in her appearance, a playful smile in his eyes. He deliberately leaned closer and whispered, ”My lady, are you savoring the events underground with that look?”

The terms ’husband’ and ’lady’ seemed to have been implicitly agreed upon by the two, but Cao Ying still occasionally felt shy about Shen Wen’s address.

”You!” Cao Ying instantly bristled like a cat whose tail had been stepped on, glaring at him fiercely, yet her ears were crimson red, almost bleeding. ”Don’t think about it! Don’t mention it! That... that was an accident!”

”Accident?” Shen Wen raised an eyebrow, his smile becoming more mischievous. ”Your husband risked being burned by the exotic flame to save my lady from danger.

Such a great merit, and my lady wants to dismiss it with just ’an accident’?

Aren’t you going to give me some substantial reward?”

Cao Ying choked with anger, blushing with annoyance: ”Reward? You... you’ve already seen... seen all of me!”

The last few words were practically squeezed out through gritted teeth.

Shen Wen spread his hands with an innocent expression: ”I can’t be blamed for this. The exotic flame was too overbearing and burned my lady’s clothes.

I didn’t even have time to close my eyes.”

His words were pure nonsense. The situation was urgent then; how could he have thought of closing his eyes? What if he did, and then—

Cao Ying would have been burned to ashes by the Green Lotus Core Flame.

Cao Ying was so annoyed by his rogue-like behavior that her teeth itched, but then she remembered that he had indeed saved her and helped her successfully refine the exotic flame, and her heart softened slightly.

She bit her lip, struggled for a moment, and then asked in a voice as soft as a mosquito, ”Then... what reward do you want?”

Shen Wen’s smile deepened. He pointed to his cheek and said, ”Simple, just a kiss.”

Cao Ying’s face instantly turned crimson, her beautiful eyes wide.

After just experiencing such an embarrassing incident, now he wanted her to actively kiss him?

But looking at Shen Wen’s expectant and smiling eyes.

Her heart pounded like a drum, and she somehow, inexplicably, slightly tiptoed, closed her eyes, and leaned towards his cheek.

However, just as her delicate red lips were about to touch Shen Wen’s cheek, he suddenly turned his head.

A soft, moist touch landed precisely on his lips.

Cao Ying abruptly opened her eyes, met Shen Wen’s playful gaze, and immediately realized she had been tricked!

”Shen Wen! You hooligan!”

Filled with shame and indignation, she slapped Shen Wen’s solid shoulder, then, like a startled rabbit, covered her face and rushed out of the cabin.

This scene.

Was witnessed by Medusa, who was outside the cabin guiding Qing Lin in simple control of her inner strength, and Dan Chen and Qing Lin, who were diligently cultivating.

Seeing Cao Ying’s red-faced retreating figure, all three showed a hint of confusion.

Medusa slightly frowned, finding this kind of human flirting difficult to understand.

Dan Chen’s small face was slightly red; she seemed to understand something and quietly lowered her head.

Qing Lin blinked her big eyes, looking blankly at the direction Cao Ying disappeared, then at the smiling Shen Wen inside the cabin, and whispered to Medusa:

”Your Majesty, what’s wrong with Sister Ying?”

Medusa calmly retracted her gaze, not answering. She was currently preoccupied with the future development of the Snake-People Clan and had no time to worry about such questions.

She helped Qing Lin cultivate because Shen Wen valued Qing Lin, and she might be able to put in a good word for her later.

Such matters that she didn’t quite understand.

She was too lazy to answer Qing Lin’s confusion, merely saying indifferently: ”Don’t worry about it so much, just cultivate well. Otherwise, your young master might not want you anymore!”

Qing Lin was startled instantly. For her, her young master not wanting her was a huge deal. She nodded vigorously, ”I will cultivate well!”

...Under Medusa’s guidance, the flying boat ventured deep into the Tagor Desert, finally arriving at the core of the Snake-People Clan.

The Sacred City.

The flying boat had just approached the outer perimeter of the Sacred City, not yet landing.

Four incredibly powerful auras, like slumbering fierce beasts, suddenly awakened and shot up from the four directions of the Sacred City!

Immense pressure, like an invisible mountain, carrying the unique chill and fierce aura of the Snake-People Clan, crashed down towards the flying boat!

These were none other than the four Peak Dou Huang elders of the Snake-People Clan!

This pressure was not aimed at a specific person; it was more like a warning and a deterrent, proclaiming that the dignity of the Snake-People Tribes Sacred City was inviolable.

However, this pressure had not yet fully descended—

”Hmph!”

A clear yet cold snort emanated from the flying boat.

The next moment, a fiery red, graceful figure had already appeared in front of the flying boat.

Cao Ying’s beautiful face was frosty; her earlier shyness towards Shen Wen had been replaced by a sharp edge.

Facing the four streams of pressure that could suffocate an ordinary Dou Huang.

She lightly raised her jade hand, and a wisp of seemingly weak but destructive green flame leaped from her fingertip.

Immediately, the green flame surged against the wind, transforming into a green fire lotus phantom that floated above her head.

The fire lotus slowly rotated, and a scorching, violent aura, no less powerful than the combined pressure of the four elders, permeated the air, completely resisting, incinerating, and dispelling the enveloping cold energy!

Green Lotus Core Flame!

Cao Ying stood proudly in the air, her dress fluttering in the heatwave. Her alluring face was now filled with confidence and dominance, and her cold voice echoed across the desert:

”Snake-People Clan, is this your way of treating guests?”
