Disliked by the Queen

Thanks to Iron Bro Huai Juan Ji Qiu for the 1,000-book-currency tip and support! Thank you, thank you.

(˘︶˘)...:*♡

Lei Ying paused when he heard this. After Lei Dong put it that way, he suddenly realized that it did indeed seem to be true. Lei Dong had apparently never asked him for anything.

He had always been the one to give things of his own accord...

Helplessly, Lei Ying sighed. "Son, it's not that your old man won't help you ask for an Exotic Flame for your wife. It's just that the Red Lotus Karma Fire ranks among the top ten flames on the Strange Fire Ranking List. Its might is naturally immense.

"Why do you think Yan Jin would give such a powerful flame to someone who was no longer a member of the Flame Clan?

"Besides, if a price had to be paid, it would absolutely be crippling. That kind of price would at the very least be enough Resources for my Lei Clan to nurture a Dou Sheng."

Lei Dong instantly lost all interest in asking for an Exotic Flame for Huo Zhi.

After all, even without the "Red Lotus Karma Fire," Huo Zhi could still reach great heights. He knew all about Xiao Yan's future opportunities. Creating a Dou Sheng did not seem difficult.

Besides, even without the "Red Lotus Karma Fire," there were still the Pill Tower's "Three Thousand Burning Flame" and the Burning Flame Valley's "Nine Dragons Thunder Flame Fire."

Of course, Lei Dong could go and seize the Exotic Flame from the Burning Flame Valley. But as for the Pill Tower's Exotic Flame, he naturally would not go and steal it unless absolutely necessary. After all, the Pill Tower had a High-level Dou Sheng stationed there.

Although a Six Star Dou Sheng was not a major threat before the Lei Clan, even the Lei Clan would not provoke one lightly.

However, since stealing it by force would not work, could Lei Dong not have an Alchemist from the Lei Clan compete for a ranking? As long as he obtained the chance to subdue an Exotic Flame, did he have to worry about failing to subdue a Three Thousand Burning Flame?

Although the Lei Clan had almost no one capable of becoming an Alchemist, that did not mean they had no Alchemists at all. On the contrary, the Lei Clan had more than ten Peak Eighth Rank Alchemists.

Of course, the reason Lei Dong dared to nurture Huo Zhi this way without fearing her betrayal was naturally not the power of love.

In this world, "love" simply did not exist for Lei Dong. As a Strong Person, he would not allow himself to have any weaknesses.

Every Exotic Flame in Lei Dong's possession had been infused with a trace of the Nine Heavens Divine Lightning. Unless someone possessed a Heavenly Realm Soul above the Dou Sheng level, no one could detect anything.

If Huo Zhi wholeheartedly obeyed, he naturally would not do anything. But if she dared to harbor ulterior motives, Lei Dong would certainly make her wish she were dead.

Lei Dong then said, "Since that's the case, forget it. I'll think of another way!"

Lei Ying did not say anything else. After all, when it came to exchanging for the "Red Lotus Karma Fire," he could not get past it, let alone the Lei Clan's group of elders. They would absolutely never agree.

After Lei Dong returned to his residence, he did not hurry to see Huo Zhi. After all, learning a Cultivation Method was not a simple matter.

Inside Medusa's room.

After being separated from Lei Dong for more than half a year, Medusa's arrival in the Lei Clan had given her access to Resources that completely overturned her understanding.

Her strength had also quickly risen to the level of a Five Star Dou Zong.

The moment Lei Dong entered, Medusa sensed him. At first, she had not wanted to pay him any attention. After all, the things Lei Dong had done to her made her feel that killing him a hundred times would not be enough to dispel the hatred in her heart!

But now, not only had she been enslaved, the entire Snake-People Tribe had also been relocated to the Lei Clan's territory. With the nourishment provided by the Lei Clan's various Resources, Medusa had no choice but to set aside her pride.

In fact, before Lei Dong, her so-called "pride" had long since been ground away.

"You... Young Clan Leader."

When Medusa spoke, she was somewhat at a loss. She did not even know how to address Lei Dong. Calling him by name seemed inappropriate given her status. Calling him "Husband" was out of the question since she did not even have a title. As for calling him "Young Master," Medusa rejected the idea without a second thought.

After all, she was still a Queen-level existence. How could she allow herself to become a Maid?

She then recalled that the person who had brought her here had called Lei Dong "Young Clan Leader!"

So she addressed him that way as well. Lei Dong, meanwhile, walked straight over and sat down in a chair.

He did not care at all about the way Medusa addressed him. To put it simply, it was merely a "form of address." What difference did it make what she called him?

However, Lei Dong was somewhat curious that Medusa was not acting coldly or glaring at him with hatred. After all, had this Snake Woman not looked as if she wanted to kill him before?

Curious, Lei Dong said nothing. Instead, he raised his hand and crooked his finger at Medusa with a playful expression.

Although Medusa felt a trace of humiliation, after recalling the torment that came from the depths of her soul, she still lowered her head and obediently approached to within three meters of Lei Dong.

Seeing that Medusa was deliberately keeping her distance, Lei Dong immediately said coldly, "Why are you standing so far away? This Young Master isn't going to eat you."

Medusa hurriedly shook her head. Lei Dong then said, "Come here!"

Hearing the growing displeasure in Lei Dong's voice, Medusa could only approach unwillingly. The next moment, Lei Dong seized her chin and forcibly raised her head, which had been lowered.

When she saw Lei Dong's bewitchingly handsome face, a blush spread across Medusa's pretty face. Lei Dong might not have been a good person, but the face Heaven had bestowed upon him was truly a gift!

Looking at Medusa, whose face was less than a centimeter from his own, Lei Dong wore a wicked grin. "It's been half a year, and you've become even more alluring. Looks like you've been doing pretty well these past six months?"

Feeling his breath wash over her face, Medusa slightly furrowed her brows.

Because Lei Dong carried the scent of another woman! Moreover, it was not an unfamiliar scent to her. She had lived here for more than half a year, and she saw Huo Zhi every day. How could she not recognize it?

Although she had already gained some awareness that she was a plaything, as a strong-minded woman, who would be willing to share one man with other women?

Medusa disregarded Lei Dong's expression, broke free of his Big Hand, and once again put distance between them.

The soft flesh of her hand slipped free from Lei Dong's grasp, instantly putting him in a foul mood. Then, seeing the look of disgust on Medusa's face, Lei Dong felt terrible!

His voice carried a trace of anger as he said, "Medusa, what do you mean!?"

Although Medusa was somewhat afraid of suffering the soul's torment again, she still followed her heart and said through gritted teeth with a look of disgust, "You're dirty!"

Lei Dong was slightly stunned when he heard this. He immediately understood what she meant by calling him "dirty."

After saying that, Medusa closed her eyes as if she were calmly awaiting death. Her Delicate Body could not help but tremble.

Just as she prepared herself to be tortured, she suddenly felt her entire body being lifted into the air in a bridal carry.

Feeling the object covering the mountain peaks on her chest, Medusa opened her eyes in shame and anger, only to see Lei Dong carrying her farther inside.

(￣y▽￣)~*Snickering behind my hand...

P.S. To everyone who has read this far, don't ask whether this is a one-female-lead story. If you ask, the answer is yes. After all, when dealing with people who refuse to open their eyes, I can only choose to tell "blind" lies!
