Chapter 15 How dare this human treat me like this?
A moment later, Yue Mei looked at the snake-man warrior lying on the ground, and her expression turned ugly.
More than twenty elite warriors fell in a single encounter; this human was far stronger than she had anticipated.
"Who exactly are you?" Yue Mei stared at Xiao Chen.
Xiao Chen did not answer; he walked toward the nearest snake-man warrior.
The snake-man warrior was still struggling on the ground, trying to get up.
Xiao Chen raised his hand.
"Stop!" Yue Mei shouted.
Xiao Chen didn't stop; he slapped down with his palm.
The snake-man warrior's body twitched once and then stopped moving.
A hint of murderous intent flashed in Yue Mei's eyes.
"Didn't you hear me say stop?"
Xiao Chen turned to look at Yue Mei. "I heard you."
"Then you still dare to make a move?"
"You think I'll stop just because you tell me to?" Xiao Chen said calmly.
Yue Mei's anger was completely ignited. In all her years of life, no one had ever dared to speak to her like that.
"You're asking for it."
Yue Mei flashed towards Xiao Chen, her speed astonishing, leaving several afterimages behind her.
Yue Mei struck out with her palm, her palm wind carrying fierce fighting spirit, heading straight for Xiao Chen's chest.
Xiao Chen stood there motionless.
A cold smile flashed in Yue Mei's eyes.
Yue Mei used 80% of her strength in that palm strike. Even a Dou Wang expert of the same level wouldn't dare to take it head-on. This human is doomed.
Just as the palm strike was about to touch Xiao Chen's chest.
Xiao Chen raised his hand and lightly met the attack with a palm strike.
The two palms collided with a muffled thud.
Yue Mei's face turned deathly pale in an instant.
She felt a terrifying force surging from Xiao Chen's palm, a force far beyond Yue Mei's imagination.
Yue Mei's body flew backward and crashed to the ground, spitting out a mouthful of blood.
Yue Mei struggled to get up, but her body wouldn't obey her commands.
Yue Mei lay on the ground looking at Xiao Chen, her eyes filled with shock.
Who exactly is this human being?
Yue Mei is a Seven-Star Battle King, and there are very few people in the entire Jia Ma Empire who can defeat her.
Even if a peak Dou Wang expert came, it would be impossible to beat Yue Mei like this in one move.
But this boy, who looked no more than fifteen or sixteen years old, did it.
A wave of fear washed over Yue Mei.
"Who exactly are you?" Yue Mei's voice trembled.
Xiao Chen walked up to Yue Mei and looked down at her.
Xiao Chen crouched down and approached Yue Mei.
Yue Mei's pupils constricted sharply. "What are you going to do?"
Xiao Chen did not answer.
Xiao Chen reached out and pinched Yue Mei's chin, then kissed her on the cheek.
Yue Mei was completely stunned; her mind went blank.
Did this human kiss her?
Yue Mei's face flushed bright red, her eyes filled with shame and indignation.
"You...you dare..."
Xiao Chen stood up and looked at Yue Mei.
"What's there to be afraid of?"
Yue Mei was so angry that she trembled all over.
She had never suffered such humiliation in all her years of life, not only being defeated by a human but also being forcibly kissed.
If this gets out, how can Yue Mei possibly stay in the Snake-People tribe?
"You just wait," Yue Mei gritted her teeth. "I won't let you get away with this."
Xiao Chen ignored Yue Mei's threat and turned to walk towards Qing Lin.
Qinglin stood at the entrance of the auction house, watching everything that had just happened, completely dumbfounded.
The young master defeated that snake-woman? And even kissed her?
Qinglin's face flushed slightly, and she lowered her head, not daring to look at Xiao Chen.
"Let's go," Xiao Chen said.
Qinglin nodded and followed behind Xiao Chen.
The two walked along the street and soon disappeared into the crowd.
Yue Mei lay on the ground watching Xiao Chen's departing figure, her eyes filled with anger.
Yue Mei struggled to her feet, clutching her chest, and walked towards the direction of the Snake-People Empire.
In the grand hall of the Serpent People's Empire, Queen Medusa sat on her throne, holding a glass of red wine.
Queen Medusa was stunningly beautiful with a captivating figure, and her pair of purple vertical pupils radiated a mesmerizing light.
Several elders sat on either side, talking in hushed tones.
Yue Mei walked in from outside, her face pale and a trace of blood still clinging to the corner of her mouth.
The elders were all stunned when they saw Yue Mei's appearance.
"Yue Mei, what's wrong?" the Grand Elder asked.
Yue Mei walked to the center of the main hall and knelt down.
"Your Majesty, your subordinates are incompetent. Please punish them."
Medusa put down her wine glass and looked at Yue Mei.
"What happened?"
"My subordinate encountered that human," Yue Mei said. "He killed more than a dozen of our warriors and also injured Flower Snake."
Medusa frowned slightly. "You never hit him either?"
Yue Mei lowered her head. "I am no match for him."
The hall fell silent.
The elders exchanged glances, all seeing shock in each other's eyes.
Yue Mei is a Seven-Star Dou Wang, one of the strongest in the entire Snake-People Clan. Even she is no match for that person.
"What is the strength of that human?" the elder asked.
Yue Mei shook her head. "I can't see through it."
"Can't see through it?" The Second Elder's expression changed.
"He defeated his subordinate with just one move," Yue Mei said.
A collective gasp filled the hall.
To defeat a Seven-Star Dou King in one move, that human must be at least a Dou Huang level powerhouse.
"And..." Yue Mei hesitated, wanting to say something but stopping herself.
"And what?" Medusa asked.
Yue Mei gritted her teeth, "That human even kissed me on the cheek."
The hall fell silent again, and the faces of the elders turned ashen.
"Outrageous!" The elder suddenly stood up. "How dare a human insult a member of my snake-people race!"
"This human deserves to die." The Second Elder also stood up.
"Your Majesty, please allow me to lead men to kill that human," the Third Elder said.
Medusa leaned back on her throne, her face expressionless.
"Go if you want," Medusa said calmly.
The Grand Elder turned to look at Yue Mei, "Where is that human now?"
"They should still be near Stone Desert City," Yue Mei said.
The Grand Elder nodded. "I will personally lead the team."
"Elder, are you going to take action personally?" the Second Elder asked.
"You've already defeated Yue Mei in one move, so going there would only be suicide for you," the Grand Elder said.
The elders fell silent.
The Grand Elder is the strongest Dou Wang of the Snake-Man race. He is a nine-star Dou Wang at the peak, just one step away from breaking through to Dou Huang. With the Grand Elder taking action, that human is doomed.
"Take one hundred elite soldiers," the Grand Elder said. "This time, we must bring back that human's head."
"Yes." The Second Elder turned around to gather the men.
The Grand Elder looked at Yue Mei and asked, "What did that human look like?"
Xiao Chen's face appeared in Yue Mei's mind.
"Fifteen or sixteen years old, dressed in all black," Yue Mei said.
The Grand Elder nodded. "Understood."
The Grand Elder turned and walked out of the main hall.
Yue Mei stood up and looked at the Grand Elder's back, a cold glint flashing in her eyes.
That human is doomed. The strongest Dou Wang of the Snake-Man race has made a move. Even Dou Huang experts would have to think twice before taking action, let alone a fifteen or sixteen-year-old boy.
Yue Mei walked out of the main hall and looked in the direction of Shimo City.
Xiao Chen, you just wait. I will repay you tenfold or a hundredfold for the humiliation you have caused me.
Yue Mei murmured to herself.
