Reckless, I Am the Queen!

That skin, white as jade, was suddenly so close before his eyes that Ye Feng's breathing quickened.

Her graceful delicate body and slender, supple waist were within arm's reach. No man could remain unmoved by such a sight.

As expected of Queen Medusa, renowned across the continent for her bewitching beauty. This exotic allure was not something an ordinary person could withstand.

Breathing in the sweet fragrance that filled his nose, Ye Feng's lips curved into a faint, wicked smile.

Queen Medusa had personally saved him. It seemed Her Majesty the Queen had noticed something.

Her slender Jade Arm flicked the cane aside. A cold glint flashed through her narrow, beautiful eyes as she lightly moved her Jade Hand and said in a low voice:

"Yin Shi, This King told you to stop. Did you not hear me?"

When Yin Shi saw the Queen personally save Ye Feng, he understood that killing Ye Feng now would be difficult.

He lightly planted his cane on the ground, his body bent slightly in a show of respect as he said:

"Her Majesty the Queen, Ye Feng violated clan law. The crime of killing a Clan Member cannot go unpunished. If he is not put to death, would not anyone be free to violate our clan rules? When that time comes..."

"Silence! How Ye Feng should be punished will be decided by This King. Commander Yin Shi, you need not teach This King what to do!"

Her icy gaze locked onto Yin Shi, and an invisible pressure bore down upon him.

That pressure made Yin Shi's aged body tremble, yet he showed no sign of yielding. His old voice emerged from his mouth:

"Her Majesty the Queen, this old servant dares ask: if the several elders learn of what you have done, then..."

"Reckless! I am the Queen!"

Queen Medusa's domineering, icy shout rang out.

Along with that incomparably imposing cry, a terrifyingly vast surge of Dou Qi erupted outward like enormous waves!

At that moment, everyone in the hall fell to their knees in an instant!

Yin Shi knelt on the ground, his body trembling uncontrollably.

He knew that his grandson's tragic death had caused him to lose his senses just now, making him far too reckless.

Trying to use the elders to pressure Her Majesty the Queen had been an extremely unwise move!

Queen Medusa swept her gaze over the crowd, her indifferent voice echoing through the hall:

"In this Guard Selection, Ye Feng achieved the final victory. Killing Yin Bi during the selection was an unintentional mistake. If anyone pursues this matter in the future, This King will not spare them lightly!"

"Yes, Her Majesty the Queen!"

Everyone immediately answered in unison.

Yet Yin Shi's aged face could not help but twitch.

"Hua She'er, after Ye Feng bathes and changes his clothes, bring him to see This King!"

After saying this, Queen Medusa's graceful delicate body was covered in a layer of crimson light before she vanished from where she stood.

"After bathing and changing clothes, go see her?"

Ye Feng was thoroughly baffled when he heard that.

It was only a meeting. Was there really any need to take a bath first?

The Queen's words were bound to make others misunderstand!

Sure enough, Ye Feng suddenly felt a bone-chilling coldness wash over him.

Ye Feng did not dare look at all. Of course, even without looking, he knew who it was.

Other than Mo Basi, who had feelings for Queen Medusa, who else could be so hostile toward him?

Mo Basi had come this time entirely as an excuse, claiming he was accompanying the genius of his tribe to compete. In truth, he simply wanted to see Her Majesty the Queen more often.

Anyone could see the meaning behind the tender look in his eyes whenever he gazed at Queen Medusa.

Originally, Ye Feng was merely a Dou Zhe and would naturally not have drawn Mo Basi's hostility.

But now that he was an astonishing genius, Mo Basi would certainly place him among the opposing ranks of a Love Rival.

It seemed his days in the Snake People Clan would not be easy from now on...

"Little Brother Ye Feng, come with me! Don't worry. With me here, I refuse to believe anyone would dare lay a hand on you!"

Holding her long spear, Hua She'er came to Ye Feng's side and pulled him toward the exit.

As he watched Ye Feng leave with Hua She'er, a flash of hostility passed through Mo Basi's eyes.

Yin Shi saw all of this. His aged eyes remained calm, but a sharp gleam flickered within them.

"Someone, carry Yin Bi's Corpse back to the tribe and give him a proper burial!"

"Ye Feng, you really should not have killed Yin Bi this time. That old fox Yin Shi is not so easy to deal with!"

As they walked, Hua She'er looked at Ye Feng beside her, who had been concealing his strength all this time.

"Sister, Yin Bi deserved to die!"

Ye Feng smiled faintly as he looked at Hua She'er beside him.

Hua She'er was stunned when she saw Ye Feng's smile. She suddenly realized that her little brother seemed somewhat unfamiliar now, yet... he was rather attractive!

Then she smiled and said:

"You little bastard, you've changed so much that you don't even recognize your sister anymore. You've been Playing the Pig to Eat the Tiger all this time—tell me... what exactly is going on?"

Hearing that, Ye Feng shrugged and sighed.

"Sigh~ I just happened to meet an old man with white hair and a white beard..."

"That old man forcibly made me take him as my master. I refused with all my might, but how could my little arms possibly twist against his thighs? So..."

As she listened to Ye Feng's tale, Hua She'er's pretty face kept changing. She could clearly sense that something fishy was going on.

Still, it was only normal for him to have secrets. This little bastard must have encountered some benefactor; otherwise, there was no way he could have become a Dou Shi at such a young age.

"You little bastard really are blessed by fate. Even your sister is jealous!"

Hua She'er was very happy for Ye Feng. Nothing delighted her more than seeing him become a strong person.

"Hehe~ Sister, there's no need to envy me, because what's mine is yours. Here!"

Ye Feng chuckled, then took a small jade bottle from his Storage Ring and handed it to Hua She'er.

"This is...?"

Hua She'er accepted the small jade bottle and looked at Ye Feng questioningly.

"It isn't anything precious, just a Dou Ling Pill! Consider it a little gift for you, Sister!"

Ye Feng spoke in an indifferent tone, waving his hand casually.

"Oh~ So it's just a Dou Ling Pill. I thought it was someth—"

Hua She'er, who had been quite casual until then, suddenly froze on the spot. She immediately looked at Ye Feng and cried out in shock:

"You said this is a Sixth-grade Pill, the Dou Ling Pill???"

Ye Feng rubbed his slightly ringing ears and nodded in confirmation.

"That's right! This is a Dou Ling Pill!"

"Ye Feng, you've even learned to fool your sister now. Fine, I accept your kind intentions!"

As she spoke, Hua She'er put away the small jade bottle and continued onward.

Seeing Hua She'er's reaction from behind, Ye Feng shook his head helplessly.

It was obvious that Hua She'er thought he was merely trying to make her happy!

What else could Ye Feng do?

He could only patiently explain from behind:

"Sister~ I'm telling the truth. That really is a Dou Ling Pill capable of raising a Dou Wang's strength by one star. Why won't you believe me?"

Hua She'er turned back with a radiant smile and urged:

"Alright, I know! Hurry up, Her Majesty the Queen is still waiting for you to bathe and change before going to see her! If Her Majesty the Queen gets tired of waiting, neither you nor your sister will have a good time!"

"Oh~ I'm coming..."
