Lin Yuan's airy yet overly shocking words stunned everyone present. Only after a moment did they come back to their senses, and then—
"What? You want to join my Snake People Race?"
"What did you say?"
"Little friend, are you sure you didn't misspeak?"
"You're not joking, are you?"
In the end, it was Queen Medusa who pressed a hand down in the void and stopped the uproar on site. She asked in a deep voice, "Are you certain you did not express yourself incorrectly?"
Lin Yuan smiled. "What, the mighty Queen Medusa doesn't dare believe what she heard with her own ears? Or are you unable to make the decision? Then I might as well put it more plainly."
"My conditions, third: allow me to join the Snake People Race as an alchemist. I can refine pills for the Snake People Race, though of course I will take away a portion of them. In this way, I will be one of your own in the Snake People Race, and my status and contributions should be enough to let me read all the Snake People Race's records, Dou Techniques, and secret arts, correct?"
This was the best of both worlds that Lin Yuan had thought of. In this transaction, he would use alchemy to exchange for the right to read the Snake People Race's records, secret arts, and Dou Techniques, while also using the Snake People Empire's vast medicinal herb repository to practice and improve his alchemy. Having obtained the inheritance of Grade 8 Alchemy, he was in need of a vast medicinal herb repository to hone his skills. Meanwhile, during this process, the Snake People Race would gain large quantities of pills and their queen's life. Both sides would take what they needed and achieve a win-win result.
