Background / History

Medusa rules the Snake People Clan, originally based in the Tagor Desert. As queen, she is regarded as the clan's pillar and spiritual support, with her personal guard commander Hua She'er and subordinate Yue Mei serving under her. 57 171 264 560

She first meets Xiao Ling when he seeks to trade for a Sand Mandara. Though initially guarded and calculating, she accepts the possibility of a transaction after he offers pill-refinement services. Zi Yan's warm approach unexpectedly softens Medusa's attitude, and Medusa offers to become her sister. 57 58

Xiao Ling later trades her a Sect Breaking Pill, intended to help her enter the Dou Zong Realm. Medusa enters seclusion and eventually succeeds, then begins considering an alliance with the Jia Ma Empire to secure a more suitable homeland for her people in the Magical Beast Mountain Range. 60 171

With Xiao Ling acting as mediator, Medusa negotiates an agreement between the Snake People Clan and the Jia Ma Empire. The clan receives a region in the Magical Beast Mountain Range, while pledging military support if the empire is attacked. 208 209

Determined to surpass her innate limits, Medusa undertakes the Snake People Clan's secret bloodline-evolution art. Using Xiao Ling's Fallen Heart Flame, she transforms into a Purple Nether Flame Snake and endures a near-fatal evolution before emerging with the bloodline and body of the Seven-Colored Sky Swallowing Python. 262 266 267 268

The evolution creates a second soul: the Little Sky Swallowing Python. Unable to fully control her body, Medusa agrees to travel with Xiao Ling toward the Central Plains in search of a solution, while ensuring her clan is protected by two Dou Zong-level Sky Demon Puppets refined by him. 269 270 272

Personality

Despite her initially cold and intimidating demeanor, Medusa has a gentler side around Zi Yan and gradually develops trust, fondness, and a more openly teasing rapport with Xiao Ling. She nevertheless insists on preserving her freedom and the right to return to her clan whenever necessary. 58 269 396 398
