Breaking the Masked Man

"real?!"

Upon hearing this, Cai Die opened her bright eyes wide and exclaimed in delight.

He then looked at Yao Yan with considerable surprise.

He pressed further, asking, "How did you manage to convince those old guys?"

Let's try to reason with them.

Yao Yan softly stated a fact: no matter who sits in the position of one of the four elders, as long as they are still mentally sound, they will not break ties with them. Most strong people are intelligent, and very few would fight over trivial matters.

Cai Die clearly didn't believe it. Looking at Yao Yan, who was unwilling to say more, she twisted her waist slightly and said stubbornly, "I don't believe it. Young Master is the best at lying."

"It's because I was afraid you'd overthink it. But this matter is considered closed. They won't bother you again in the future. They've already agreed to that."

Yao Yan raised his hand to tap Cai Die on the head, but the headdress on her head prevented him from doing so. At the same time, he also noticed that Cai Die's appearance was 90% similar to Queen Medusa, the only difference being her eyes.

Butterfly's eyes were gentle, while her older sister's eyes were colder and sharper, with a hint of aggressiveness.

One is bright and beautiful, the other is aloof and noble.

"Is the young master captivated by me?!"

Cai Die looked at Yao Yan, who had paused in his movements, her eyes flickered slightly, she smiled brightly, blinked her big eyes, and said softly.

"I just think you and your sister look really alike."

Yao Yan sighed softly.

Butterfly's eyes narrowed instantly, she let out a soft snort, twisted her alluring body, and said with dissatisfaction, "I knew you were always thinking about my sister, even while holding me in your arms, you're still thinking about her..."

She glared at Yao Yan with a hint of jealousy, then gently bit her lower lip.

"I didn't keep thinking about it all the time, I just thought about it occasionally."

Yao Yan said frankly that even knowing Queen Medusa was eavesdropping outside, he didn't mind. Women aren't shy, so why should men be?

Besides, isn't liking beautiful women an instinct that every man has?

There was a pause.

Instead of letting go, he held Cai Die's delicate body even tighter. Seeing her dissatisfied eyes, he changed the subject: "I just heard the elder say that you and your sister seem to have a mutual connection. What's going on?"

"It means you can roughly sense the other person's emotions and physical condition."

Upon hearing this, Cai Die immediately said that not many people knew this secret, and Yao Yan was clearly not an outsider.

"?!"

Yao Yan was stunned when he heard this. He didn't expect the two sisters to be serious. This unique ability reminded him of Shuang'er in a movie. He wondered if Cai Die and Queen Medusa could communicate in the same way. Thinking of this, he couldn't help but reach out his claw and pinch Cai Die's smooth snake tail.

Cai Die was caught off guard and her pretty face flushed red. She glared shyly at Yao Yan, that bad guy. Why did he have to launch a surprise attack?

at the same time.

Queen Medusa, Cai Lin, outside pursed her lips, her cold, beautiful eyes filled with complex emotions. She wanted to rush in and kill Yao Yan, but she didn't know what excuse to use. In the end, she could only knock on the door, her soft voice carrying a hint of coldness: "Come out when you're done talking!"

It's actually true... Yao Yan was filled with surprise and elation. He wanted to investigate further, but he was worried about ruining his sister-in-law's mood. So he could only suppress his inner turmoil for the time being and comfort himself that there would be plenty of time in the future!

"My sister is outside... It's all your fault!"

Cai Die rolled her eyes at Yao Yan, feeling embarrassed and annoyed. She quickly distanced herself from Yao Yan and muttered something under her breath. She felt that her sister must have known about her little interaction with Yao Yan. It was so embarrassing.

Yao Yan coughed once, and replied as if nothing had happened, "Okay."

She then led Cai Die, whose face was slightly flushed, out of the room. The guards outside had already left, leaving only Queen Medusa standing guard at the door. This scene naturally made Cai Die's face even redder. For a moment, she didn't know how to face her sister, since her sister had just told her to keep her distance from Yao Yan and not to offer herself up like this.

But when faced with Yao Yan, she was clearly not smart enough.

"If you ever lay a finger on my sister again, don't blame me for being ruthless!"

Queen Medusa twisted her waist, shielding the colorful butterfly behind her, and stared coldly at Yao Yan, threatening him.

How did you know I used my claws... Yao Yan wanted to be cheeky, but considering that their relationship was still fragile, she suppressed her emotions and nodded in agreement, preventing Queen Medusa from completely exploding.

Seeing Yao Yan's cooperation, Queen Medusa's emotions stabilized slightly, and she said calmly, "Give the refined pills to my sister. I'm taking her into seclusion."

She dared not let her younger sister be alone with Yao Yan any longer. The intense physical sensations were truly frustrating for her. She also wanted to ask Yao Yan if there was a pill that could sever this connection, but she found it difficult to say the words.

You can't exactly say, "I'm worried that your future displays of affection will disturb my mood."

Yao Yan took out a bottle of pills from his storage ring and handed it to Cai Die. Then he looked at Queen Medusa and said, "There are four pills left. After your essence is restored, you can try to swallow one or two more to see if they still have an effect."

He had taken one of these pills before, but its effect on him was negligible, far less than that of the Body Tempering Pill.

Queen Medusa didn't stand on ceremony and nodded before leading her younger sister away into the distance. As for Yao Yan, she asked Flower Snake to take care of him, since it would take one or two days to finish taking the pills and he wouldn't be out of seclusion so soon.

"Sir, please."

The mature and elegant Hua She'er spoke to Yao Yan with great respect, in a soft voice.

Yao Yan nodded and followed Queen Medusa's personal guards toward the distant palace. He planned to rest for a few days before heading to the location of the Azure Lotus Earth Core Flame, where he would then go into seclusion. This time, he intended to use the power of the Azure Lotus Earth Core Flame to break through to the Dou Wang level!

After that, you can head to the Black Corner Region.

……

A few days later, Hai Bodong and Cai Die emerged from seclusion one after another. Considering that they were going to the depths of the magma, Yao Yan decided to let Cai Die stay in the territory of the Snake People for the time being, temporarily replacing Queen Medusa to control the entire Snake People. The two sisters looked alike, so there was obviously not much pressure in pretending to be one.

As for the different colors of the tail scales... there are so many ways to disguise this, all that's needed is a little bit of paint.

Butterfly has done this many times before.

Cai Die was naturally unwilling to do so, but she knew that the matter of the strange fire was of great importance, and she could not let her personal emotions interfere with the young master's important affairs. She could only obediently nod and watch the three leave until they were out of sight. Only then did she purse her lips and return to the palace with Hua She'er, looking sullen.

On the other side, Yao Yan looked at Queen Medusa and asked curiously, "I heard from Cai Die that she gave you the name Cai Lin?"

He was quite surprised when he heard the name, clearly not expecting that the name would fall on Queen Medusa.

"It's just a title."

Cai Lin replied indifferently, clearly uninterested in the topic. Yao Yan wasn't her sister, and she had no interest in chatting about such things with her.

Seeing his sister-in-law's cold face, Yao Yan decided that the next time he saw Cai Die, he would give her a good spanking. Then he looked at Hai Bodong and said softly, "If we find the Azure Lotus Earth Core Flame this time, I will probably go into seclusion for a while. At that time, I will have to trouble Elder Hai with the supplies."

The Azure Lotus Earth Core Flame is near Stone Desert City, so it's not suitable for Cai Lin to go there. Naturally, the only one left is Hai Bodong, the eldest elder of the Mittel family.

Given the other party's status and connections, they could quickly find any medicinal herbs that the Gama Empire possessed, which was what Yao Yan valued most. While personal strength was indeed important, a vast network of connections could also bring convenience, since humans cannot live in groups, no matter what world they live in.

Cultivating immortality emphasizes wealth, companions, methods, and location, and the same applies to the fantasy world.

"no problem."

Hai Bodong nodded in agreement.

Cai Lin frowned, glanced at Yao Yan, and said calmly, "Is the location really confirmed?"

"You'll find out soon enough."

Yao Yan smiled but didn't explain much. He simply increased his speed. At this moment, his desire for the Azure Lotus Earth Core Flame had reached its peak. He needed to use the power of the Azure Lotus Earth Core Flame to provide energy for the evolution of the Burning Technique. At the same time, he wanted to use the strange fire to temper his body and allow the Vajra Indestructible Body to completely step into the second level. The advancement of his battle qi had become the least important thing.

This will be the most crucial step for him to become the strongest!

If successful, the future is promising.

Failure... No failure!

……

The three of them quickly arrived near Stone Desert City. Upon seeing this location, Cai Lin and Hai Bodong were both somewhat surprised. They then looked at Yao Yan, seemingly wondering if Yao Yan had come to the wrong place, as this place did not look like a place with a strange fire.

Yao Yan didn't speak, but floated in mid-air, sweeping across several miles with his soul power. Soon, he opened his eyes, and golden flames appeared around him. He transformed into a stream of light and rushed directly into the desert.

Seeing this, Cai Lin and Hai Bodong followed suit.

With a muffled thud on the desert surface, Yao Yan used his physical body to clear a path, quickly creating a hole in the ground. At the same time, a large amount of quicksand poured into the depths of the hole, below which was another bottomless cave with a pitch-black opening, resembling the gaping maw of a gluttonous beast, ready to devour everything.

Yao Yan floated in mid-air, made a hand gesture to Cai Ling and Hai Bodong, and then took the lead, clearing the way and drifting deeper into the cave.

soon.

The three of them stopped because they saw more than a dozen dark passages ahead.

"How to go?"

Cai Lin looked at Yao Yan and asked, now believing that the fragment of the map Yao Yan mentioned was real. Without a map, finding such a place would only be a matter of luck.

Yao Yan touched Ling'er in his arms and noticed that it was not moving. After pondering for a while, he used his soul power to scan one by one. Soon, he sensed a unique aura in one of the passages. Compared to the other dozen or so passages, the fire attribute energy in it seemed to be particularly docile.

"This one!"

Yao Yan pointed to one of the roads and flew off first.

(End of this chapter)

Chapter 103 Qinglian Earth Core Fire

The passage was pitch black and deep, with three streams of light of different colors moving through it at an extremely fast speed.

As they went deeper, the coolness of the underground completely dissipated, replaced by a scorching heat. Even the energy of heaven and earth was transformed into fire energy, and even the earth energy contained underground was suppressed to the point of being almost imperceptible by this fire energy.

Hai Bodong's battle qi is of the ice attribute, so his perception of fire attribute energy is naturally extremely keen. Noticing the constantly rising temperature around him, he couldn't help but say, "The fire attribute energy here is too concentrated!"

“This place is definitely not normal. This is not even the deepest part, but the fire attribute energy is already this high. There may really be the strange fire you want down there.”

Cai Lin glanced at Yao Yan, who was leading the way, and a hint of anticipation appeared in her cold and beautiful eyes. She had only heard of strange fire, a rare treasure born of heaven and earth, but had never seen it. Now that she had the opportunity to see it with her own eyes, how could she not be excited? You must know that the Medusa Queen's clan has a secret method to advance through strange fire.
