Background / History

Queen Medusa first appears in the Tagore Desert while pursuing the Green Lotus Core Flame. She confronts Lu Yunxiao and Hai Bodong, overwhelms Hai Bodong, defeats Lu Yunxiao's two fifth-tier Spirit Pets, and nearly kills Lu Yunxiao. When Lu Yunxiao releases the Heavenly Flame against her, she is seriously injured by the backlash and retreats, swearing to take his life when they meet again 127 128 129.

Seeking to evolve beyond the limits of her Snake-person bloodline, Medusa later captures the Green Lotus Core Flame and prepares to use it in her evolution. Lu Yunxiao infiltrates Snake-people territory to recover the flame, but uses his knowledge of her evolution technique to negotiate for his life. He provides the mnemonic formula that substantially improves her chance of success, forming a cautious alliance with her 227 231 232 238 239.

Medusa undergoes the evolution in the Snake-people Royal City, transforming into a giant purple serpent before successfully becoming a Seven-Colored Sky Swallowing Python. Her consciousness later awakens again through the Python's recovered strength, allowing her to return to human form 245 327.

Her initially hostile relationship with Lu Yunxiao gradually becomes romantic. He names her Cai'er, and she ultimately acknowledges him as her husband before the Snake-people elders and commanders 333 385 562. She subsequently returns to rule her people directly, ordering the eight great tribes to assemble after revealing her survival and breakthrough to Dou Zong 553.

Much later, she completes Hundred Lifetimes Reincarnation, enters the Nine Nether Yellow Springs for her clan inheritance, and reaches Six-Star Dou Sheng. Her growth remains driven by a refusal to fall behind Lu Yunxiao, Yun Yun, Zi Yan, or the other powerful women around him 1296 1298 1598.

Appearance

Queen Medusa is a tall, strikingly beautiful Snake-person whose appearance blends royal nobility, predatory wildness, and an overtly seductive charm.

  • Long, pitch-black hair, usually falling to her waist.
  • Narrow, bewitching phoenix eyes; high jade nose; crimson lips.
  • Curvaceous figure and slender waist.
  • Initially possesses a purple snake tail beneath a human upper body 124 127.
  • Often wears a crown and magnificent crimson or red brocade robes befitting her status as queen 127 235 553.
  • Gains human legs after evolving into the Nine-Colored Sky Swallowing Python 382 393.
  • Can form clothing directly from Dou Qi energy 382.

Personality

Medusa is proud, domineering, and intensely competitive. As queen, she expects obedience and treats threats to her authority without leniency; before giving her heart to Lu Yunxiao, she is willing to employ any method—including a sneak attack—to achieve her aims 128 231.

Despite her cold exterior, she is deeply responsible for the fate of the Snake-people Race. Her evolution matters to her not only as personal advancement, but as a matter of her race's rise or decline 232 244. She also honors promises once given 232.

After accepting Lu Yunxiao, Medusa becomes markedly softer and more openly affectionate around him, while retaining her pride and possessiveness. She is notably jealous of his other companions and admits she cannot tolerate sharing him easily 340 354 440. Her determination to surpass stronger rivals remains unchanged even after becoming his wife 553 1296 1598.

Story Role / Major Arcs

Green Lotus Core Flame Conflict

Medusa returns to the Desert Divine Temple as a five-star Dou Zong, reassures Flower Snake, convenes the tribal leaders, and publicly declares Lu Yunxiao her husband despite opposition from her people 553 562.

Hundred Lifetimes Reincarnation and Clan Inheritance

She emerges from Hundred Lifetimes Reincarnation as an early-stage Half-Saint with the Movement Character Secret and beginner-level Grass Character Sword Art. She then enters the Nine Nether Yellow Springs to claim her clan inheritance, eventually rising to Six-Star Dou Sheng 1296 1298 1598.
