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

As the sandstorms of the Tagor Desert receded, the rolling green hills and majestic city silhouettes were gradually left behind.

Bai Chuxiao waited in the Snake-People's Royal City for more than a month. After all the elders, weak, and supplies of the tribe had been properly settled, he finally ordered them to set off.

At his command, except for Caiyun beside him, tens of thousands of snake-people were transformed into a golden light by the snake spirit seal in his palm and sucked into that independent space.

The hundreds of storage rings filled with luggage and supplies were all entrusted to Caiyun for safekeeping.

The Eight-Winged Black Serpent King spread its sky-covering black wings, carrying Bai Chuxiao, Caiyun, Qinglin, and Lüman, and sped through the sky towards the Heavenly Serpent Empire.

The journey, which took more than twenty days, passed in the blink of an eye, with everyone speeding along.

As the magnificent Heavenly Serpent City, nestled between the desert and mountains, came into view, a gentle yet imposing figure appeared high in the sky outside the city.

"It's my mother's scent!"

Bai Chuxiao's eyes lit up, and a rare, genuine smile appeared on his face.

Above the clouds, Bai Wanqing, dressed in plain white robes with her black hair flowing down, stood steadily in the void with nothing behind her, surrounded by a faint white halo.

She looked eagerly towards the sky, and when she saw the familiar figure on the back of the Eight-Winged Black Serpent King, her heart, which had been hanging in suspense for months, finally settled down, and a gentle smile instantly spread across her face.

A mother worries when her son travels a thousand miles. Bai Chuxiao had been gone for months without a word, and the Lord of the Heavenly Serpent Palace was truly anxious day and night.

Caiyun's gaze immediately locked onto Bai Wanqing, her pupils contracted slightly, and a storm raged in her heart.

Wingless, soaring through the air—a Dou Zong powerhouse!

Moreover, he was no ordinary Dou Zong; his restrained yet unfathomable aura was far more terrifying than she had imagined!

"mother!"

Bai Chuxiao leaped off the Serpent King's back, transforming into a streak of light as he rushed towards Bai Wanqing, his tone filled with filial affection.

"Chu Xiao!"

Bai Wanqing quickly stepped forward, grabbed his hand, and instantly scanned his entire body with her soul power, carefully examining him, afraid that he might have been injured in the slightest while he was out.

But upon investigation, her brows furrowed almost imperceptibly.

She could clearly sense a hidden, slightly weak soul aura emanating from Bai Chuxiao.

Yao Chen hid the medicine in the ring, thinking that he could use his soul techniques to deceive everyone and continue to hide.

However, under the soul perception of a high-level Dou Zong like Bai Wanqing, his weak soul power, which had not yet recovered much, had nowhere to hide.

Yao Chen was horrified, cold sweat pouring down his face. He never expected that Bai Chuxiao's mother was such a terrifyingly powerful expert! With his current restored soul power, he could at most exert the combat power of a low-level Dou Huang. Being able to deceive Green Barbarian and the Eight-Winged Black Serpent Emperor was already the limit. In front of Bai Wanqing, even his underwear would be seen through.

Bai Chuxiao noticed his mother's unusual behavior and understood what was going on, but he didn't point it out.

Seeing that her son was unharmed and his aura was stable, even more refined than when he left home, Bai Wanqing knew that he had not suffered any loss. She simply assumed that this soul was an aid that her son had brought back on purpose. She suppressed her doubts and gently patted his shoulder: "It's good that you're back, it's good that you're back."

The group entered Heavenly Serpent City in a grand procession and returned directly to the Heavenly Serpent Palace.

Upon entering the sect's territory, Bai Chuxiao did not delay at all and immediately went to the mountain range connected to the back of the sect, finding a sufficiently spacious open space.

With a flash of light from the palm-shaped snake spirit seal, tens of thousands of snake-people instantly appeared in the open space.

This mountain range is adjacent to the Heavenly Serpent City. It is vast and has a cool environment, making it the most suitable place for the Serpent People to live.

Bai Chuxiao raised his hand and drew a line, circling out most of the western part of the mountain range. He then said loudly to Caiyun and the snake-people, "This place will be your home from now on. It leads directly west to the Heavenly Serpent City market. From now on, every member of the snake-people will be free to walk, trade, and buy and sell within Heavenly Serpent City, and no one will dare to discriminate against you."

"But you must also remember that you must not harm the innocent; those who violate this rule will be punished according to the clan rules."

The snake-people looked at the lush mountains before them, an environment far superior to the desert, and were all overjoyed. They bowed respectfully to Bai Chuxiao.

Being able to leave the barren Tagor Desert and settle down in this prosperous place is already a great blessing, not to mention that they will no longer be subject to any discrimination and can trade freely in the market.

It's important to understand that the biggest weakness of the Snake-People is their inherited Yin-cold attribute battle qi, which prevents them from producing alchemists. Most of their medicinal resources have to be traded with human alchemists.

In the past, they were the oppressed party in the Gama Empire. Forget about fair trade; it was already a blessing if they didn't fight each other when they met! Now that they no longer have to worry about these problems, how could they not be grateful?

After settling the snake-people and watching them enthusiastically build their new tribe, Bai Chuxiao, along with Caiyun, Qinglin, and Lüman, returned to the sect's main hall with Bai Wanqing.

The atmosphere inside the hall was solemn.

Bai Wanqing sat upright in the main seat, her gentle gaze sweeping over everyone as she spoke, "Xiao'er, tell me, what have you experienced these past few months away?"

Bai Chuxiao nodded and slowly recounted his experiences in the Tagor Desert. His words were concise, yet every word was crucial.

Bai Wanqing already knew that her son was exceptionally talented. Although she was surprised by his subjugation of the snake people, she found it reasonable and was not overly astonished.

But when she heard that what Green Barbarian was holding was actually the Azure Lotus Earth Core Flame, which ranked nineteenth on the Strange Flame Ranking, even she, who was very knowledgeable, was filled with shock and excitement!

Strange Flame! That's a treasure that drives the entire Dou Qi Continent crazy! Even the Heavenly Serpent Palace, with its profound resources, has never possessed a single Strange Flame!

Immediately afterward, when Bai Chuxiao mentioned that Qinglin possessed the Jade Serpent Three-Flower Pupil, Bai Wanqing's breath hitched slightly. Her gaze fell on the timid Qinglin in the corner, her eyes filled with unbelievable surprise.

It turns out to be the Jade Serpent Three-Flower Pupil they've been searching for all these years?

Although the Heavenly Serpent Palace no longer has such a deep obsession with the Azure Serpent Three-Flower Pupil, having it is better than not having it!

Moreover, the Heavenly Serpent Mansion's inherited cultivation techniques have always been most suitable for the Jade Serpent Three-Flower Pupil, but Bai Chuxiao has his own path of growth. If a suitable successor is not found soon, the authentic cultivation techniques of the Heavenly Serpent Mansion may be lost in a few generations.

Bai Wanqing strode up to Qinglin, gently took her small hand, and carefully examined it, sensing the strange energy flowing in her eyes. Her excitement grew even stronger: "Good! Good! Good! My Heavenly Serpent Manor has truly struck gold!"

Green Barbarian, holding the Azure Lotus Earth Core Flame, felt the intense gaze of the Lord of the Manor and was filled with pride.

She finally understood why her young master cared so much about this little girl!

Unexpectedly, the Jade Serpent Three-Flower Pupil, which they had been searching for for decades without success, was found by the young master in a casual trip.

"I've already recognized her as my younger sister. If Mother is willing, she can take her as her disciple and teach her herself," Bai Chuxiao said.

"Great! That suits me perfectly."

Qinglin, who was initially a little uneasy, gradually relaxed after hearing the conversation between the mother and son. No matter what, as long as they were her brother's family, that was all that mattered!
