Dugu Yan: I Can Be a Snake Person Too, the Breathtakingly Beautiful Queen Medusa

"I... I don't know..."

Facing the Snake People Leader before her, Dugu Yan was somewhat afraid as she stammered.

"You don't know?"

The Snake People Leader frowned. Soon, as though he had thought of the answer, he took on a look of fury and indignation.

"You escaped from those human nobles, didn't you?"

"Those damned humans are always capturing us Snake People and selling us to those vile nobles!"

"There isn't even a trace of Dou Qi fluctuation in your body. You must have been captured when you were young and sold to human nobles. They didn't even allow you to cultivate Dou Qi!"

"We Snake People have already been persecuted by humans and driven from our ancestral land into this Tagor Desert. There is nowhere left for us to retreat!"

"If those humans keep oppressing us, then under the Queen's leadership, we'll fight them to the death!"

"There are already so few of us Snake People. We must cultivate diligently and unite around Her Majesty the Queen!"

Dugu Yan had not expected the Snake Person before her to fabricate an origin story for her, and he even seemed to intend to teach her how to cultivate Dou Qi.

Her beautiful eyes immediately lit up. Putting on an aggrieved and furious expression, she said at once.

"My lord, that's right!"

"I was captured by those damned humans when I was little. They sold me to nobles."

"At the nobles' estate, I suffered endless torment. Only after seizing an opportunity did I manage to escape. I heard that our Snake People Clan was in this Tagor Desert, so I risked my life to flee here."

"With humans oppressing our Snake People Clan like this, once I return to the clan, I will cultivate diligently and fight for the future of the Snake People Clan!"

Dugu Yan clenched her jade-like hand into a fist and spoke with grief and indignation.

Upon hearing the Snake People Leader's words, an uproar immediately swept across Douluo Continent.

There was more than just one race of humans in this Doupo World?

These Snake People were not magic beasts, but another race?

Within the core region of the Star Dou Great Forest, Di Tian let out a cold sneer.

"Humans truly are all cut from the same cloth!"

"On Douluo Continent, humans rely on Deities backing them to oppress our Soul Beast Clan, confining us to Soul Beast forests and Soul Beast settlements."

"And in this Doupo World, those humans have driven these Snake People into this desert."

"They are truly tyrannical beyond measure!"

As he spoke, Di Tian could not help clenching his fists, filled with indignation and rage.

Yet there was nothing he could do.

Still, discovering that the Doupo World actually had a Snake People Clan—a race that shared much the same plight as their Soul Beast Clan—

and that the Dou Qi system of the Doupo World was clearly stronger than the Soul Master system of Douluo Continent, made Di Tian think.

If a powerful Soul Beast could be chosen by the Heavenly Screen, perhaps it could travel to this Tagor Desert and ask the Snake People Clan for help.

"Dugu Yan is far too lucky!"

Outside Heaven Dou Royal Academy, seeing that after encountering the Snake People Clan, Dugu Yan had been mistaken for one of their kind because her legs had turned into a snake tail after possessing the Jade Phosphorous Serpent Martial Soul—and that they even intended to teach her Dou Qi cultivation—

Tang San could not help clenching his fists, filled with jealousy and fury.

His teacher, Yu Xiaogang, had encountered those detestable Ape Magic Beasts after arriving in the Doupo World.

Before countless people across the continent, he had been brutally tortured and ravaged by those Ape Magic Beasts, suffering unspeakably.

Yu Xiaogang had become Xiao Gang!

Yet Dugu Yan was so fortunate!

Tang San was furious and unwilling to accept it.

"Yanyan is so clever!"

Within Dugu Manor, seeing that after being mistaken for a Snake Person, Dugu Yan had immediately played along and claimed to be one, gaining the chance to join the Snake People Clan and cultivate Dou Qi, Dugu Bo was overwhelmed with excitement and exhilaration.

Within the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Sect, "Dugu Yan seems to be Tian Heng's girlfriend, doesn't she?"

Realizing that Dugu Yan appeared to have found an opportunity to cultivate Dou Qi through the Snake People Clan, Yu Yuanzhen's heart stirred as he suddenly recalled the relationship between Dugu Yan and Yu Tian Heng.

"Yes!"

Yu Luomian thought for a moment before replying.

"But Dugu Yan carries the Dugu Family's Jade Phosphorous Poison. If she becomes pregnant, she will pass the poison on to her descendants."

"That's why, before this, Big Brother, you never really approved of Tianheng being with Dugu Yan."

"Now, I approve!"

Yu Yuanzhen interrupted Yu Luomian, a spark of fervor flashing through his eyes as he declared resolutely.

"The Dou Qi system of the Doupo World has a far higher ceiling than the Soul Master system of our Douluo Continent!"

"In the future, the Soul Master system will inevitably fade into decline!"

"The future will belong to the Dou Qi system!"

"Dugu Yan actually found a way to cultivate Dou Qi in the Doupo World. Once she returns, we must find a way to obtain the Dou Qi Cultivation Method from her!"

At this moment, in the Doupo World.

Led by the Snake People Leader, Dugu Yan entered a small oasis with a group of snake people and found quite a few snake people who had been kidnapped and locked in cages.

The sight filled Dugu Yan with indignation.

Although she considered herself human, the snake people looked much like humans, yet humans captured them and sold them as goods to nobles.

As a young person, Dugu Yan disliked such dark deeds.

After rescuing these snake people, Dugu Yan and the Snake People Leader crossed vast stretches of desert and returned to the large oasis where the Snake People Clan lived.

After passing through the snake people city, Dugu Yan arrived before a majestic palace and went up to it.

Inside the palace, Dugu Yan met the queen of the snake people—the Queen Medusa!

"So she's Queen Medusa?"

In the palace, built entirely of stone and not particularly resplendent yet filled with a rugged, sharp primitive beauty, Dugu Yan knelt on one knee and curiously stole glances at the snake woman seated upon the throne ahead.

She wore a luxurious purple gown, with a purple snake tail for her lower body. Her long black hair was adorned with all manner of precious golden ornaments, making her appear noble and ravishing, her bearing majestic and profound.

Dugu Yan could not help but marvel inwardly.

What a beautiful and imposing big sister!

"Reporting to Your Majesty, Moro successfully rescued the snake people of the Black Orchid Tribe, which belongs to the Charm Snake Tribe, after they were captured by those despicable human mercenaries!"

"Furthermore, Moro rescued a fellow clanswoman who was captured as a child, sold to a human noble, and escaped back from that human noble!"

Kneeling on one knee before Queen Medusa, the Snake People Leader, Moro, spoke respectfully.

"Moro, you have done very well!"

Queen Medusa praised him, her red lips parting slightly.

"These humans always enjoy doing such sneaky things, encroaching upon our Snake People Clan!"

A flash of anger and chill passed through Queen Medusa's beautiful eyes. Her jade-like hand clenched the armrest of her throne as she spoke furiously.

"But they will not be pleased with themselves for much longer..."

After meeting Queen Medusa, Moro respectfully completed his salute and slowly withdrew.

As for Dugu Yan, she had originally been meant to be assigned to a snake people tribe.

But because Dugu Yan was quite pretty, Granny Golden Snake, the leader of the maids serving Queen Medusa, took a liking to Dugu Yan and claimed her, intending to keep her in the palace to serve Queen Medusa.

"You haven't cultivated Dou Qi yet?"

"Come with this old woman!"

Holding a snake-headed staff, Granny Golden Snake spoke in an aged, hoarse voice. She led Dugu Yan through the palace until they arrived before a guarded hall.

Before even entering the hall, Dugu Yan felt an intense stirring from the Jade Phosphorous Serpent Martial Soul within her body.

This left Dugu Yan exhilarated and overjoyed.

There's an opportunity in this hall that can evolve my Martial Soul?!
