Wei Yang shook his head, calming his thoughts, then turned to look in a certain direction.
There, a graceful white figure approached rapidly, with pale gray Dou Qi wings fluttering behind her. In her hands, she carried a petite, light green silhouette as she flew toward the mountaintop.
Wei Yang smiled and waved at them.
Xian’er retracted her wings and landed beside Wei Yang, gently setting down Qing Lin.
"Congratulate me—I succeeded," Wei Yang grinned, arms wide open.
The two girls beamed with joy, their cheeks blushing slightly as they threw themselves into his embrace.
Far away, over ten li in the distance...
A massive, serpentine black shadow slithered slowly and silently, creeping closer without making a sound.
A pair of light golden vertical pupils, as large as bull turtle shells, glowed with coldness, savagery, and excitement.
Its flat, triangular head rose slightly, a serpentine tongue flicking in and out of its mouth as it stared fixedly at the three figures on the mountaintop—embracing under the moonlight.
Finally, it had found them!
Its heart pounded with excitement, its eyes slightly reddening.
It had been searching for them for an entire year!
Wandering through this desert, it had spent a full year before finally tracking them down.
Damn those cowardly humans!
If not for the bizarre celestial phenomenon it spotted from afar—sun and moon shining together in the night sky...
And then, cautiously approaching, it caught a faint scent of life in the air, which sparked its curiosity and drew it closer. Otherwise, it might never have found them.
Tonight, it had to eat them!
At the mountaintop, Wei Yang was pulling the two girls along, ready to head back for some rest.
Now that he had successfully devoured the Heavenly Flame, the mission was accomplished. Next, it was time to relax and rest for a few days.
Wei Yang turned sharply, his gaze cold as he looked in a specific direction.
From that direction—at the base of Wind Rock Hill, shrouded in shadow—he sensed a faint trace of murderous intent. Something was lurking there, stealthily approaching.
And within that subtle killing intent, Wei Yang faintly detected a familiar presence.
"Brother Yang?" Xian’er looked at him in confusion.
She followed his gaze, but didn’t notice anything unusual.
Wei Yang’s lips curled into a faint smile. His pupils deepened into a pitch-black abyss, flickering with a faint ghostly glow. A thread of black flame danced within them.
"Xian’er, looks like we’ll need to stretch our limbs a bit tonight," he said with a chuckle. "That beast came looking for us—probably attracted by the earlier phenomenon."
"That beast? It’s that one!" Xian’er was stunned for a moment, then quickly understood.
Deep in the desert, in this forbidden zone of life, there was likely only one creature that would come looking for them now—the peak Rank 5 King Cobra they had encountered a year ago.
"That snake with the giant eyes?" Qing Lin exclaimed softly in alarm.
"Heh." Xian’er chuckled.
Wei Yang also laughed.
That was then, this is now.
Not to mention Xian’er, who was already at the peak of Nine-Star Dou Wang.
Even Wei Yang, currently at Seven-Star Dou Wang and having just refined a Heavenly Flame, was more than enough to deal with it!
"Since it came knocking, we can settle both old and new scores at once. Saves us the trouble of hunting it down."
Wei Yang stretched slightly and said, "Qing Lin, wait here. I’ll go catch you a pet."
Black flame Dou Qi wings flared out behind him, and in a flash, he turned into a black streak of light, soaring into the sky.
Behind him, Xian’er—clad in white with flowing silver hair—unfurled her pale gray Dou Qi wings and followed closely.
"Young Master, Sister Xian’er... please be careful..." Qing Lin stood where she was, watching them disappear into the distance. She bit her lip lightly, her tiny fists clenched, whispering to herself.
She was deeply unwilling—too weak to be of any help. ᴜᴘᴅᴀᴛᴇ ꜰʀᴏᴍ n0velfire.net
She also felt a pang of envy... that Sister Xian’er could fight side by side with the Young Master.
Wei Yang gently flapped the black wings of Dou Qi behind him, halting in mid-air as he hovered above the ground, his sharp gaze cast downward toward the shadows below.
Beside him, Xian’er caught up, her eyes also turning toward the base of the hill.
Only now did she finally sense the deeply hidden trace of danger lurking in the darkness at the foot of the hill.
"This serpent-type magic beast really has incredible concealment skills!" Xian’er said in astonishment.
She hadn’t expected that the ferocious and violent king cobra magic beast would actually possess such a high-level stealth ability.
If not for Brother Yang’s powerful soul and acute perception, they might really have been ambushed tonight!
After all, they had been living in this lifeless desert for a year, with no danger or unexpected events during that time. It was only natural their vigilance would’ve relaxed a bit.
"Still not planning to show yourself?" Wei Yang sneered down toward the shadows.
At that moment, a pair of pale-golden vertical pupils lit up in the dark.
Accompanied by the soft flicking of a snake’s tongue, a massive, flat, triangular head slowly emerged from the black shadows.
Its eyes locked tightly on the two tiny figures floating in the sky. In the depths of its pupils, however, there was a slight contraction.
Only a year had passed, yet the beast’s natural instincts allowed it to sharply detect a faint sense of danger coming from the two detestable humans.
Especially the one with the black flame wings—that one made it feel it even more clearly.
Because... the beast flame in its body was trembling!
It was trembling in fear, as if it wanted to submit!
That human’s flame had changed. A year ago, it was dark red and rather weak.
Now it had turned black?
That black flame... was dangerous!
Moreover, it felt... strangely familiar.
The king cobra’s vertical pupils stared at the black flame wings behind Wei Yang, and in a daze, they seemed to awaken a memory deeply buried in its mind.
A painful, unwanted, distant memory...
Long ago, when it had just evolved into a rank-five magic beast, it had once tried to devour a black sun!
Yes, it once tried to devour a sun.
But from that day on, it never dared return to this place again.
That unpleasant memory had long been buried deep within its mind—almost forgotten. Or perhaps... it had just been unwilling to recall it.
Its pupils rotated, scanning the surrounding terrain. The more it looked, the more it overlapped with the scene in its memory.
Then, thinking of the earlier anomaly of the sun and moon hanging in the same sky...
It finally, belatedly, pieced everything together.
That long-buried memory came crashing back into full clarity.
Sun and moon together.
A flash of terror lit up in the king cobra’s pupils. Its massive body shuddered, and it instinctively wanted to retreat and flee.
At this point, fear had taken root in its heart. It wanted nothing more than to get away from here as fast as possible.
As for the two detestable humans? That could wait for another day.
Sensing the fear and retreat in the king cobra’s aura, Wei Yang raised an eyebrow. He extended both hands, spreading his fingers.
Twin plumes of black flame ignited in his palms, leaping and roaring.
Noticing the snake’s fear deepening the moment the black flames burst forth from his palms, Wei Yang couldn’t help but grin.
"Hehehe~ So, you’ve been tortured by this flame before, haven’t you? To survive that... your luck must be sky-high!"
He clicked his tongue in amazement. Do these serpent-type beasts all have ridiculous lives?
The Two-Headed Flames Spirit Serpent once swallowed the Green Lotus Core Flame—and lived.
Now this king cobra had tried to devour the Black Sun Burning Heaven Flame—and also survived.
Plus, it might have had contact with the Wind and Thunder Fury Flame in the past too? Damn, talk about a death-defying horoscope!
"Trying to run now? Since you’ve come, don’t bother leaving!" Wei Yang mocked as he saw the serpent slowly withdrawing its head into the darkness again.
The black flames in his hands twisted and surged.
In an instant, they transformed into three enormous black fire dragons, each nearly twenty meters long. They coiled in the air, circling around him.
The three dragon heads opened wide and roared, unleashing a powerful aura that locked directly onto the king cobra.
They looked incredibly lifelike, brimming with spirit—just like real living dragons.
