Ning Su was waiting in the bath barrel for the Seven-Colored Little Snake.

But as the Seven-Colored Little Snake leaped through the air toward him, it suddenly erupted in a dazzling seven-colored radiance, forcing Ning Su to shut his eyes.

The next moment, he felt a soft, delicate body fall into his arms.

Ning Su opened his eyes in surprise, only to see an incomparably beautiful and bewitching face before him—Medusa!

"Her Majesty the Queen?" He froze for a moment.

At that moment, Medusa was sitting right in his lap, the two of them soaking in the same bath barrel.

Her ravishingly beautiful face carried a trace of noble bearing she had never possessed before.

From her snow-white jade neck downward, past her exquisite collarbones, was a pair of full breasts, half submerged beneath the water and half exposed above its surface.

Medusa was completely naked at that moment. Even the parts of her body beneath the water were faintly visible, made all the more alluring by the rippling surface.

She did not seem to care about her current state. Instead, she slowly leaned forward, pressing her full breasts against Ning Su's chest.

Medusa extended a finger and gently lifted Ning Su's chin, like an ancient emperor inspecting one of his consorts.

"You're Little Black?"

Her red lips parted slightly, fragrant as an orchid in bloom.

"Your Majesty, it's me."

Medusa's finger slid slowly from his chin over his throat before settling on his toned chest.

"Why are you a man?"

Ning Su: "..."

The question caught him completely off guard, and for a moment, he did not know how to answer.

"I've always been a man. Didn't Your Majesty notice before?" he replied stiffly.

Medusa rolled her eyes at him. "I'm not some pervert. Why would I go out of my way to check your sex?"

Snakes were different from humans. Unless one specifically inspected them, it was impossible to tell whether they were male or female merely by looking at their appearance.

Of course, even among humans, one could not simply judge whether someone was male or female based on appearance alone.

Some men were prettier and more alluring than women.

"But I didn't expect you, Little Black, to be able to take human form while only a Dou Emperor. That's much faster than I expected." Medusa straightened up again.

Feeling the softness leave his chest, Ning Su secretly lamented the loss.

But at least he could feast his eyes on her again.

"Maybe it's because I absorbed the Green Lotus Core Flame."

At the mention of the Green Lotus Core Flame, Medusa's expression changed instinctively.

That Heavenly Flame had tortured her until she wished she were dead, and the trauma still lingered in her heart.

"I never expected you to be able to devour even a Heavenly Flame. I underestimated you."

"Hehe, maybe I'm just more resistant to burning. As long as the Heavenly Flame can't burn me to death, I can devour it." Ning Su scratched his head and chuckled.

The two of them suddenly fell silent.

They simply soaked quietly in the bath barrel, and the atmosphere seemed to grow somewhat delicate.

Perhaps because sitting for too long had become uncomfortable, Medusa shifted her body slightly.

Suddenly, she felt as though something beneath her had poked her.

"What's this?"

She reached down and grabbed it.

Ning Su instantly sat upright. "Y-Your Majesty... don't move around."

Medusa froze for a moment before realizing what it was.

A rare blush rose to her cheeks.

"Pervert!"

After muttering the curse under her breath, Medusa hurriedly climbed out of the bath barrel and casually grabbed a towel from nearby, wrapping it around her curvaceous body.

Ning Su felt utterly wronged.

She was the one who had grabbed it, so why was she scolding him?

"You get out too," Medusa said.

Ning Su obediently stood up, dried himself off, and got dressed.

Medusa looked him up and down.

"I didn't expect you to be quite handsome after taking human form, Little Black."

She had already developed a close bond with Ning Su before.

So even now that Ning Su had taken human form, Medusa did not feel too uncomfortable about it. Emotionally, she still liked Ning Su quite a lot.

Moreover, during this time, Ning Su had been using the Green Lotus Core Flame to condense fire lotus seeds for the Seven-Colored Little Snake to eat, causing the soul of the Seven-Colored Sky-Swallowing Python to become fond of Ning Su as well.

Under the combined influence of both factors, Medusa naturally accepted Ning Su's new form.

If it had been any other man, Medusa would have killed him the moment they had soaked in the same bath barrel earlier.

"Thank you for the compliment, Your Majesty. You're very beautiful too. I wanted to say so even before you transformed, but I had to wait until now to tell you in person."

"You certainly know how to talk."

Wrapped in a bath towel, Medusa sat on the bed to the side, her hair still dripping wet.

"Go call Little Flower in to help me change."

"Alright."

Ning Su obediently went outside and called Hua She'er in.

"Your Majesty?! You've recovered?!" Hua She'er was astonished.

"More or less. Come help me change first."

"Yes, Your Majesty!"

Ning Su waited outside for quite a while, until the door finally opened again.

The instant it opened, he was utterly stunned by her beauty—

Medusa wore a red robe, dignified and elegant, beautiful and graceful. Her flawless features were beyond criticism, while her alluring figure invited endless fantasies.

Especially her newly formed legs—slender and beautiful, their curves perfectly proportioned without the slightest discordance.

Her bare jade-like feet were crystalline and exquisite, like the most perfect creation of heaven.

This was the first time Ning Su had seen Medusa's full appearance from a human perspective.

It felt completely different from when he had still been in snake form.

After all, a snake's eyes were different from a human's.

So, this was truly the first time Ning Su had witnessed Medusa's world-shaking beauty.

So beautiful she could make fish sink and geese fall, shame the moon and humble flowers!

"What are you looking at?" Medusa asked as she looked at him.

Ning Su quickly came back to his senses, feeling that he had been far too pathetic.

No matter how beautiful Medusa was, he should not have stared himself senseless.

Hua She'er, standing nearby, could not help covering her mouth and giggling. "It must be Little Black's first time seeing Her Majesty like this after transforming. He was stunned silly by how beautiful she is."

Ning Su was not embarrassed at all and openly admitted it. "It's because Your Majesty is too beautiful."

"You certainly know how to talk. Before, I always thought you were female. I even imagined that once you transformed, we could be best friends." Medusa spoke improper words with a perfectly serious expression.

"Your Majesty, I think you should broaden your horizons. Being best friends has nothing to do with gender. We can't let gender affect the bond between us," Ning Su said solemnly.

Medusa rolled her eyes at him. "Stop spouting nonsense. Get to business first."

"My current state won't last long. I could revert to the Seven-Colored Sky-Swallowing Python's form at any moment."

"First, tell me what happened after my evolution."

Sure enough, Ning Su had known that Medusa's current state was only temporary.

Without outside help, she still could not completely merge with the soul of the Seven-Colored Sky-Swallowing Python.

While she had temporarily suppressed the Seven-Colored Sky-Swallowing Python's soul, she needed to handle the tribe's affairs.
