In search of the Magic Flame, Xiao Yan and his mentor ventured deep into a serpent-infested desert, provoking the wrath of the Snake Tribe's leader, Yue Mei. When Xiao Yan found himself teetering on the brink of death, he was unexpectedly saved by the enigmatic Master of Fight, whose face was concealed by a mask. As it turned out, this mysterious individual was also seeking the prized flame. Despite the tribe's refusal to surrender it, the Master of Fight persisted, ultimately launching an assault on the tribe's queen. However, it soon became apparent that the queen they had attacked was merely a decoy, and that the true monarch was preparing to absorb the Magic Flame in order to attain godlike powers as the God of Fight. As the Snake Tribe retaliated against any who dared challenge their queen, Xiao Yan managed to locate traces of the coveted flame amidst the chaos, and sought to take down the actual queen herself.
