Battle Through the Heavens: The Young Master of the Heavenly Serpent, intercepts Yao Lao at the star

Just then, the Grand Elder, who had been silent all along, suddenly looked up, trembling violently. His cloudy old eyes were fixed on the snake spirit seal in Bai Chuxiao's palm, his pupils suddenly contracting to needle size, as if he had glimpsed the most terrifying existence in the world. His aged voice trembled uncontrollably:

"The... the ancient serpent god! That's... the serpent spirit seal of the ancient serpent god!!"

As soon as the words were spoken, the entire Serpent Clan altar fell into a deathly silence, so quiet you could hear a pin drop.

An ancient serpent god? What is that?

All the snake people, including the eight leaders and even Medusa, the queen of the snake people, were completely bewildered, having never heard of such a secret before.

Only the eldest elder, who had read the oldest records in the clan, knew that he was the ancestor of the snake lineage, the supreme being who was above all snake-like magical beasts and snake-people, and the supreme being at the source of the bloodline!

Bai Chuxiao was also slightly taken aback upon hearing this, a hint of surprise flashing in his eyes.

The Serpent Spirit Seal was an innate talent of his, which was not even recorded in the ancient books treasured by the Heavenly Serpent Palace. People only knew that it was miraculous and domineering, but did not know its origin.

Unexpectedly, in this remote Tagor Desert, among the Snake People, someone could recognize their name immediately!

"You recognize this seal?" Bai Chuxiao's gaze sharpened slightly as he looked calmly at the Grand Elder.

The Grand Elder trembled violently, all traces of his previous arrogance and defiance gone. He immediately kowtowed, his voice filled with utmost awe and fear:

"Legend has it... all snakes in the world, including my snake-people, inherit their bloodline from the ancient snake god! The oldest secret text of our tribe records that only the reincarnation of the snake god can condense this snake spirit seal!"

Medusa's heart was instantly filled with turmoil, and her pretty face changed slightly.

He wasn't lying! He truly represents the will of the Serpent God!

In this way, even if he really regarded her as a pet, she should not have the slightest rebellious heart—after all, he was a snake god!

Previously, she could not accept humiliation simply because she regarded Bai Chuxiao as an ordinary human; but when facing the Snake God, the snake-human blood flowing in her veins would instinctively trigger her innate submission, and she would not be able to muster the slightest intention to resist.

Throughout the entire Dou Qi Continent, the ancient powerhouses were nothing more than Dou Sheng and Dou Di, and no great power had ever been heard of claiming to be a "god".

It is conceivable that the status and strength of this ancient serpent god far surpasses that of the top Dou Di in this world!

Bai Chuxiao understood immediately; so that's how it is.

His gaze swept over the trembling snake-people below, who showed no further will to resist, and a faint smile of complete control slowly appeared on his lips.

It seems that the snake-people were captured quite easily.

Even the Grand Elder knelt down and submitted, revealing the secrets of the Snake God. How could the other snake people dare to harbor any disloyalty?

Others may not be able to replace Medusa as the new queen of the snake people, but he, representing the snake god, not only can, but is also the rightful ruler!

"In that case, I will issue my first royal decree."

Bai Chuxiao stepped forward, his black robes fluttering in the wind. His voice was solemn and authoritative, carrying an undeniable kingly aura: "From this moment forward, all members of the Snake-People clan, pack your belongings and prepare for a clan migration! I will lead you away from this barren and desolate desert!"

Upon hearing this, all the snake people's faces instantly lit up with wild joy. They all looked up at Bai Chuxiao, and their eyes gradually revealed the same piety and awe they had shown when looking at Medusa.

Finally, we can leave this godforsaken place with its endless yellow sand and scarce resources!

No one doubted Bai Chuxiao's ability to do it; in the face of the Serpent God's majesty, they only needed to obey orders.

Bai Chuxiao then looked at the Grand Elder, who was still prostrate on the ground, and said calmly, "Get up. Take me to see that ancient book that records the Serpent Spirit Seal. I want to see it for myself."

The white-haired elder immediately stood up respectfully, bowed, and repeatedly replied, "Yes, Your Majesty, please follow this old minister."

The Grand Elder led the way, and Bai Chuxiao followed slowly.

The Eight-Winged Black Serpent King was too large to move around easily, so it stayed in the palace square to wait; Green Barbarian, holding the Azure Lotus Earth Core Flame, was also unable to move and waited in place.

The others followed silently behind Bai Chuxiao, not daring to walk alongside him. Only Qinglin, whose hand was being held, kept her head down and followed silently.

Having witnessed the utmost respect from Douhuang experts to Bai Chuxiao these past few days, the little girl's inferiority complex quietly resurfaced. She felt that her status was too lowly to stand beside this powerful older brother.

Such obvious emotions naturally did not escape Bai Chuxiao's eyes.

He suddenly stopped, half-squatted down, and picked Qinglin up without a word. As he walked, he chatted softly, "Qinglin, we'll be home soon. Tell your brother, what's your biggest wish right now?"

Upon hearing this, Qinglin's face instantly flushed red. She buried her head deeply in Bai Chuxiao's shoulder and whispered in a voice barely above a whisper, "Qinglin has no wishes, she just wants to stay by her brother's side for the rest of her life."

Bai Chuxiao shook his head seriously: "That won't do."

Qinglin's face turned deathly pale instantly, and her heart clenched.

She endured endless suffering and bullying, and finally found Bai Chuxiao, the light that illuminated her dark life. If she lost her brother, she really didn't know if she would have the courage to live on.

But the next moment, Bai Chuxiao's gentle voice rang out again: "Girls grow up and get married, how can they stay by their brother's side forever?"

With her heart finally at ease, Qinglin disregarded her shyness and inferiority, gripped Bai Chuxiao's clothes tightly, and mustered all her courage to boldly confess: "But Qinglin only loves you, brother. I don't want to marry anyone else..."

Seeing the little girl finally muster up her courage, Bai Chuxiao chuckled and ruffled her hair: "Haha, brother likes Qinglin the most too, but I can't bear to see Qinglin marry someone else."

Upon hearing this, Qinglin's face turned red to her ears, and she buried her face tightly in Bai Chuxiao's shoulder, too ashamed to look up.

The four snake-man elders standing to the side kept their eyes down, not daring to breathe loudly, as if they hadn't heard or seen anything, and dared not utter a single complaint.

Only Medusa slowly kneaded her fingertips, her feelings towards Bai Chuxiao subtly changing.

She saw and understood Qinglin's inferiority complex. At this moment, Bai Chuxiao's eyes held no evil thoughts, only pure love and care for Qinglin, unlike the undisguised strong possessiveness he had shown when he looked at her from the bottom of the lava.

She had even mentally prepared herself for the possibility that, as Bai Chuxiao grew older, one day on a whim, her body would become his possession.

But his teasing and comforting of Qinglin was only to protect the little girl's fragile self-esteem; his words "I like Qinglin the most" gave Qinglin the most reassuring comfort.

Thinking about the difference between herself and Qinglin, Medusa felt a strange sense of envy. How could the gap between people be so big?

"What's wrong with me? Why am I having such strange thoughts..." She frowned to herself, suppressing the strange emotions surging in her heart.
