Medusa, the Queen

After coming out of the Gate of Life and Death, Jiang Cheng returned, while Jiang Xing went to find Lin Shan.

Having spent two years inside the Gate of Life and Death, he wanted to know whether Medusa had awakened.

Before entering the Gate of Life and Death, the Seven-Colored Heaven Swallowing Python had already fallen asleep. Jiang Xing suspected that it had been fighting Medusa for control of the body.

Lin Shan told him that after he entered the Gate of Life and Death, the Seven-Colored Heaven Swallowing Python had been entrusted to the Great Elder's care.

It had awakened two months after Jiang Xing entered the Gate of Life and Death.

Learning that Medusa had truly awakened, Jiang Xing was delighted.

How could he not be? By his calculations, he had not seen Medusa for two and a half years!

Thinking of Medusa's bewitchingly beautiful face and her full, mature body... tsk, tsk, tsk. Jiang Xing felt like he was being shameless again.

From passing snake-people, he learned that Medusa was handling official business in the main hall, so Jiang Xing headed in that direction.

On his way there, Jiang Xing also observed the changes in the Misty Cloud Sect.

Snake-people with tails moved back and forth along the roads. Judging from their condition, it was not hard to see that the Misty Cloud Sect was indeed well suited for them to live in.

When Jiang Xing arrived at the main hall, the guards outside saw him and respectfully called out, "Greetings, Queen Consort!"

During the previous war against the alliance of the Jia Ma Royal Family and the Misty Cloud Sect, Jiang Xing alone had slain most of the alliance's top experts, allowing the Snake-People Tribe to win with ease.

He had also helped the Snake-People Tribe leave the Tagore Desert and relocate to Misty Cloud Mountain, which was suitable for their survival.

Since then, the snake-people had completely acknowledged Jiang Xing as their Queen Consort.

Jiang Xing nodded to them, then asked, "Mm. Is the Queen inside?"

The guard hurriedly answered, "Yes. The Queen is handling official business."

Upon receiving the guard's confirmation, Jiang Xing strode into the main hall.

Medusa, who was handling official business inside, heard the guard's voice outside and abruptly looked up toward the entrance.

She saw a handsome man with refined features enter. His silver-white hair was bound with a purple headband trimmed in gold, and he wore magnificent garments dominated by gold and bluish-green hues.

"Jiang Xing, you're out!"

Seeing that it was Jiang Xing, Medusa rose directly from her throne.

After Medusa woke up and learned that Jiang Xing had been swallowed by the Gate of Life and Death, she had tried to see whether she could enter it. Unfortunately, no matter how much Dou Qi she poured into it, the Gate of Life and Death did not react at all.

When Jiang Xing had not emerged, she had worried about him. But now that he had truly appeared before her, she felt somewhat at a loss.

Jiang Xing's thoughts were not nearly as complicated as Medusa's. Seeing Medusa after two and a half years apart, he walked straight up and embraced her delicate body.

Medusa froze. She had not expected Jiang Xing to hug her the moment they met, and she did not know whether to struggle free or simply let him hold her.

Then Jiang Xing's voice sounded by her ear. "I missed you these past two years."

Forget it. I already agreed to marry him. Letting him hold me for a while is nothing.

After embracing for a long time, Jiang Xing finally released Medusa.

"I made you worry these past two years."

Looking at Medusa's peerless beauty, Jiang Xing spoke softly.

"This Queen was not worried about you!"

Medusa was no longer as wary of Jiang Xing as before. Jiang Xing even felt that the Queen sounded a little tsundere.

"Have your soul and the Seven-Colored Heaven Swallowing Python's soul completely fused?"

Jiang Xing smiled faintly and did not argue with Medusa over that. Instead, he asked about her current condition.

"No. It will still take some time."

Medusa was somewhat surprised that Jiang Xing knew about this, but she answered truthfully.

"I have a Soul Fusion Pill here. It can completely fuse your souls."

Jiang Xing took out a small jade bottle from his Storage Ring and handed it to Medusa.

Hearing that it was a medicinal pill that could help fuse her soul, Medusa hesitated briefly before accepting it.

"Jiang Xing, thank you."

This time, Medusa was genuinely moved. Although the Seven-Colored Heaven Swallowing Python had taken over her body after its evolution, she could still see what was happening outside.

Jiang Xing had killed those who came to disrupt her evolution in the Snake-People Tribe. He had helped the Snake-People Tribe defeat the alliance of the Jia Ma Royal Family and the Misty Cloud Sect. After she became the Seven-Colored Heaven Swallowing Python, he had cared for her and helped the snake-people find a suitable place to live. And now, he had given her a Soul Fusion Pill to help fuse her soul...

One thing after another that Jiang Xing had done surfaced in Medusa's mind. At last, she understood her own feelings.

Then, acting completely unlike herself, Medusa took the initiative and wrapped her arms around Jiang Xing's neck, pressing her vivid red lips directly to his.

Jiang Xing was also stunned by Medusa's sudden action. Before he could even react, her red lips had already met his.

Yet just as Jiang Xing came back to his senses, Medusa hurriedly pulled away.

Medusa's kiss made Jiang Xing's heart race. When he looked at her again, a blush had already spread across her face, and even her smooth skin had turned crimson.

Jiang Xing cupped Medusa's face in both hands and kissed her deeply, as though he wanted to pour all his feelings into that kiss.

Her arms wrapped around his neck, her nails lightly scratching across his skin and sending a tremor through him.

He cupped her face in both hands and kissed her deeply, as though he wanted to pour all his emotions into that kiss.

This time, Jiang Xing finally felt how soft and delicate Medusa's lips were, moistening him like a spring drizzle and leaving him utterly intoxicated, unable to pull himself free.

Sweet moisture slid between their entwined tongues. Medusa's mind went blank, and then she obediently closed her eyes.

As he kissed Medusa's sweet lips, her slightly cool tongue slipped into his mouth. Greedily taking in her scent, he forcefully explored every corner. In that instant of trembling desire, they both forgot everything around them.

After a long while, their lips parted. Medusa's alluring face was flushed crimson, her tender skin rosy beneath its pale whiteness, and her seductive eyes were hazy with intoxication.

Jiang Xing looked at Medusa in his arms, her fragrance drifting beneath his nose. The flames of desire within him could no longer be suppressed and burst forth.

He swept Medusa up in his arms and used the power of space to teleport them into the room.

Seeing this, Medusa asked in surprise, "You've broken through to Dou Zun?"

Jiang Xing smiled faintly. "Is this really the time to be asking that?"

He laid Medusa down on the bed, leaned over and sat beside her, his trembling hands slowly undoing the buttons of her purple brocade robe...

P.S. With the New Year approaching, updates may become unstable. I hope everyone can understand.

Lastly, I wish everyone a Happy New Year in advance!
