Seeing How Red Your Face Gets

"Are you not afraid I'll interrupt your breakthrough?"

"No. When the time comes, I'll bind your soul to mine. If I die, you'll accompany This King as well."

Bai Xiaoran said, "You're awful!"

"All Snake-People are awful. Hurry back to the room next door and cultivate. This King needs to rest."

Bai Xiaoran snorted, stored the cultivation resources in his Storage Ring, and headed to the room next door.

Queen Medusa swallowed. "I still have to hold back. One moment she looks so pitiful, the next she's cold as snow. This woman really knows how to exploit my weaknesses."

It was not bad to have kidnapped such a woman, though she had not even asked her name.

"The servant called her Young Master. Could she really be a boy?"

Very quickly, the thought sank away in Queen Medusa's mind. Bai Xiaoran had kept insisting that she was a boy. Perhaps she truly leaned more toward being one inside.

But for such a breathtakingly beautiful woman to claim she was a boy, Queen Medusa truly did not believe it after cultivating for so long.

In the room next door, Bai Xiaoran felt both delighted and stifled.

Queen Medusa treated her own people quite well. At the very least, there was no need to worry about cultivation resources. But it seemed impossible to escape anytime soon. Perhaps there would only be an opportunity when Queen Medusa transformed into human form.

"Qing Lin, where did Xiaoran go?"

Qing Lin explained, "Young Master Xiaoran went to search for Heavenly Flames. He told me to come back first and said there was no need to worry about him."

Xiao Ding and Xiao Li were somewhat worried. Recently, the Snake-people tribe had captured many human women. They truly feared that Bai Xiaoran had been seized as a woman.

Qing Lin was extremely worried about Bai Xiaoran. Queen Medusa was not a kind woman in her eyes.

Ling Ying, hidden in the shadows, was even more frustrated.

He had returned from Jia Nan Academy and followed the trail all the way here, only for it to suddenly vanish.

He could not rashly enter the Snake-people tribe either. Queen Medusa within was a Dou Emperor as well. He should search the nearby area first.

For some time afterward, Bai Xiaoran remained with the Snake-people tribe, serving Queen Medusa. Every time, she inevitably teased him until his face turned red.

"Look at you. You really can't take teasing. This King hasn't even done anything."

Bai Xiaoran turned his head aside. "Take a look at yourself. You're like this every time."

Queen Medusa said, "What about it? This King is wearing clothes, not stripped naked. What will you do when it comes time to give me a Bath and help me change?"

"I won't do it!"

"That won't do. Giving me a Bath and helping me change are things you must do."

For the past few days, she had kept a veil over her face and had never taken it off.

"Come over and remove This King's veil."

"You want me to remove it too?"

Queen Medusa said, "If I tell you to do it, then do it. Know your place."

Bai Xiaoran reached out and removed the veil from Queen Medusa's face. The instant it fell, her enchanting and peerlessly beautiful appearance still left him somewhat awestruck.

"Well? Do you think This King is beautiful?"

"Beautiful, but only so-so!"

Queen Medusa grabbed Bai Xiaoran by the arm and pulled him straight onto the bed.

"Y-you, what are you doing? I'm a girl."

"Didn't you say you liked women? You're unwilling to get close to This King?"

Bai Xiaoran instinctively raised his hands protectively.

That's not right. I'm a boy, so why am I so scared?

Queen Medusa did not rush to make a move. Instead, she asked, "Have you had any complaints these past few days?"

"No. I've never had any complaints."

"Then why haven't you called This King whenever you cultivated?"

Bai Xiaoran asked in confusion, "Why would I call you when I cultivate?"

He generally did not need anyone's guidance when cultivating.

"I'm a Dou Emperor, and you're a Dou Master. Shouldn't you come ask for advice?"

She had thought Bai Xiaoran would come seek her guidance, but the opposite had happened. His cultivation speed had been extremely fast these past few days. Once, when she secretly observed him, he had even cultivated until he lost himself in it.

Bai Xiaoran said, "I will, but only after I break through to Da Dou Shi."

Queen Medusa said, "It seems This King misunderstood you. As my servant, ask me if you have questions. Come to me if you lack resources. If you feel lonely, you can come find me too."

"Yes."

Bai Xiaoran could not understand Queen Medusa's way of thinking at all.

After getting off the bed, Queen Medusa immediately had him give her a Bath.

As he drew close to Queen Medusa's body, the drifting fragrance nearly made Bai Xiaoran lose control. Still, he braced himself and removed her outer robe.

The moment his palm touched her, he found her body incredibly full and soft.

"You removed the outer robe, but not the undergarments?"

Bai Xiaoran shook his head. "I won't remove them."

What if she realizes I'm a man after seeing her body? Wouldn't I be finished?

Queen Medusa said displeasedly, "If I tell you to remove them, then remove them. Why are you talking so much?"

With no other choice, Bai Xiaoran undid the garment around her chest. It fell into his hands, and the sight before him made his face flush scarlet at once...

Soon, Queen Medusa went to bathe, while he stood quietly at the door, waiting for her to finish so he could help her change.

Sitting in the hot spring, Queen Medusa looked at her standing Jade Feet and said, "Want to join me?"

"No. I think you can manage on your own."

"Hm? What did you call me?"

"Your Majesty the Queen!"

The corners of Queen Medusa's lips curled up as she smiled. "Your Majesty the Queen sounds more natural. You clearly know how to make This King happy, yet you insist on making me scold you first."

Bai Xiaoran grumbled inwardly, Isn't it because you force me? You're strong, so you get the final say.

Still, Queen Medusa truly treated him well. She never hesitated over cultivation resources. Whatever he wanted, she would directly get it for him.

Unfortunately, Alchemists were scarce among the Snake-people tribe—practically nonexistent. If she could also refine pills for him, that would be perfect.

Then breaking through to Da Dou Shi would be even faster.

Listening to Queen Medusa move back and forth in the hot spring, Bai Xiaoran's heart pounded wildly.

"I'm saying, it's not good for you to be outside all alone. Do you want to bathe with This King?"

Bai Xiaoran said, "No need. It's better if I cultivate."

"Life is all about experiences. Why do you cultivate every single day?"

Queen Medusa spoke, but Bai Xiaoran in front of her no longer responded.

"Cultivating, cultivating every day. What a blockhead!"

Afterward, Queen Medusa began sensing the Heavenly Flames within her body. She had not completely refined them yet and needed to use them when she broke through to Dou Zong after some time.

"By then, he should at least break through to Dou Wang. In any case, This King has time to wait."

This woman's massage technique is quite good. It suits my tastes perfectly.

Before long, Bai Xiaoran, who was cultivating, was called awake by Queen Medusa.

"Stop cultivating. Hurry and come help This King change."

Bai Xiaoran looked at Queen Medusa, who was wrapped in a piece of cloth. Sweat ran down both sides of her thighs, and his face immediately turned crimson. "Can't you do it yourself?"

"Look at you. It's not as if you've never seen a naked woman before."

"Where are the clothes?"

"On This King's bed."

Bai Xiaoran got up and headed toward the bedchamber.

Queen Medusa watched his retreating figure and smiled. "He's so cold and detached when cultivating. Why does he start blushing whenever he sees This King?"

Next time, I'll bathe with her and see what her figure is like!
