Strength Increase, Six-Star Dou Huang

The Snake-People Tribe was exceptionally lively today.

The snake-people in the tribe gathered together, whispering to one another about the Queen personally taking a concubine for Xiao Chen.

The First Elder stood at the entrance of the Stone Hall, watching the snake-people coming and going, his face filled with gratification.

The Queen was taking a wife and concubine for Xiao Chen.

What did this signify?

It signified that the Queen valued Xiao Chen!

As his grandfather, he felt a great sense of pride.

The First Elder stroked his beard, grinning from ear to ear.

The Second Elder stood not far away, his expression far less pleasant.

He wore a gloomy face as he looked at the decorations inside the Stone Hall, his eyes filled with dissatisfaction.

"The Queen is far too indulgent toward that Xiao Chen."

The Second Elder muttered in a low voice.

"First Yue Mei, and now she's taking a concubine for him? And it's the Triple Jade-Green Snake Flower Pupils at that."

"What right does he have? What qualifications does he possess?"

The few snake-people beside him heard this, but none dared to respond.

The Second Elder held significant power within the tribe, and ordinary people dared not contradict his words.

At this moment, at the residence of Mo Basi.

"That piece of trash, what right does he have?"

"I am one of the Eight Great Leaders, yet I've been reduced to this state because of him!"

"And the Queen, actually punishing me for the sake of a piece of trash!"

The more Mo Basi thought about it, the angrier he became, slamming his fist against the stone wall.

"Xiao Chen, you just wait!"

"I will definitely make you pay!"

Xiao Chen wore a set of new clothes, standing in the center of the Stone Hall.

Qing Lin wore a red wedding dress, her head lowered, her small face flushed red.

"Miss Qing Lin, from now on, you are Xiao Chen's wife."

The First Elder said with a chuckle.

"Although Xiao Chen already has one wife, rest assured, he will not treat you poorly."

Upon hearing this, Qing Lin's face turned even redder, and she whispered, "Yes."

The Second Elder stood to the side, watching this scene with cold eyes.

He was seething with rage inside, but in the presence of the Queen, he dared not say anything.

Queen Medusa sat at the head of the hall, watching the wedding proceed with an expressionless face.

She understood clearly that the stronger Xiao Chen's strength became, the more beneficial it was for the Snake-People Tribe.

Although she had not fully grasped the opportunity of Multi-Child Multi-Blessing, the fact that Xiao Chen had risen from a three-stage Dou Disciple to a Nine-Star Dou Wang was undeniable.

"The ceremony is complete." Following a loud shout, the wedding concluded.

"Send them to the bridal chamber!"

Xiao Chen took Qing Lin's hand and walked toward the bridal chamber.

Qing Lin kept her head down, allowing him to lead her, her heart pounding violently.

Inside the Stone Hall, Queen Medusa had not yet left.

The Second Elder finally could not hold back, stepped forward, and said, "Queen, your subordinate has a matter he does not understand."

Queen Medusa glanced at him and said, "Speak."

"Why does the Queen favor Xiao Chen so much?" the Second Elder asked.

"First, you married Yue Mei to him, and now you are taking a concubine for him..."

"What virtue or ability does Xiao Chen have to deserve such importance from the Queen?"

"Furthermore, although Mo Basi struck first, it was Xiao Chen who provoked the incident."

"For the Queen to punish Mo Basi and strip him of his position as a leader is, perhaps, a bit..."

The Second Elder stopped there, not continuing further.

But his meaning was already very clear.

He felt it was unfair.

The First Elder's expression darkened upon hearing this, and he said, "Second Elder, what do you mean by that?"

"Xiao Chen is my grandson; I know what kind of person he is."

"He would never start trouble on his own, and I can vouch for that."

The Second Elder sneered and said, "You vouch for him? What are you vouching with?"

"Don't you know what level of strength your grandson has?"

"He was well-behaved back when he was at the third stage of Dou Disciple."

"But now? Is he just throwing his weight around in the tribe because he relies on the Queen's favor?"

"Throwing his weight around?" The First Elder was so angry his beard bristled.

"Mo Basi struck my grandson first, and you think he's in the right?"

The Second Elder retorted, "Mo Basi is one of the Eight Great Leaders. What is Xiao Chen compared to him?"

"A piece of trash, daring to challenge a leader?"

"Enough!"

Queen Medusa let out a cold shout, cutting off their argument.

The Stone Hall fell silent at once.

Queen Medusa glanced at the Second Elder and said indifferently, "My decisions do not require an explanation to you."

"As for Xiao Chen, I have my own arrangements."

"You only need to know that everything I do is for the sake of the tribe."

Upon hearing this, the Second Elder's face flushed red, but he dared not say another word.

The Queen's majesty was not something he could challenge.

"Withdraw."

Queen Medusa waved her hand.

The Second Elder gritted his teeth and bowed as he retreated.

Before leaving, he glared fiercely at the First Elder.

The First Elder did not back down either.

In the bridal chamber, red candles burned, casting a crimson glow throughout the room.

Qing Lin sat on the edge of the bed, head lowered, her hands twisted together.

Her heart was beating rapidly, and her face felt burning hot.

Xiao Chen walked up to her and reached out to gently lift her chin.

"Are you shy?"

Hearing this, Qing Lin's face turned even redder, and she whispered, "N... no..."

Xiao Chen smiled and reached out to remove her wedding dress.

Qing Lin's body trembled, and she instinctively wanted to pull away, but she held herself back.

"Don't be afraid."

"I will be gentle, rest assured."

Xiao Chen whispered.

Qing Lin bit her lip and nodded slightly.

The red candles flickered, casting the shadows of two people.

A night of intimacy followed.

The next morning.

Xiao Chen opened his eyes, feeling completely refreshed.

He subconsciously sensed the Dou Qi within his body and was momentarily stunned.

Host has received the Multi-Child Multi-Blessing System reward, strength increased to Six-Star Dou Huang.

"Six-Star Dou Huang?"

A flash of surprise crossed Xiao Chen's eyes, which then turned into satisfaction.

He had previously been a Three-Star Dou Huang, and in just one night, he had advanced to a Six-Star Dou Huang.

A Six-Star Dou Huang—this level of strength was considered top-tier in the Jia Ma Empire.

The Multi-Child Multi-Blessing System truly lived up to its name.

A smile curled at the corners of Xiao Chen's mouth.

He turned his head to look at Qing Lin beside him and discovered that she had also woken up.

Qing Lin opened her eyes, stunned for a moment, before suddenly sitting bolt upright.

"My... my Dou Qi..."

Qing Lin's eyes widened, her face filled with disbelief.

Her current strength...

"Nine-Star Dou Grandmaster?"

Qing Lin exclaimed, unable to believe it at all.

Overnight, going from not even a Dou Practitioner to a Nine-Star Dou Grandmaster?

How could this be possible?

"Xiao Chen, my... how could my strength..."

Qing Lin looked at Xiao Chen, her eyes full of confusion.

Xiao Chen put on his clothes and walked out of the wedding chamber.

By taking Qing Lin as a concubine, he had received the Multi-Child Multi-Blessing reward, reaching the strength of a Six-Star Dou Huang.

Xiao Chen was in an excellent mood.

"Xiao Chen." But just at this moment, a shout suddenly rang out.

Xiao Chen's gaze shifted slightly.

It landed before him, where he saw Mo Basi arriving in front of him, fuming with rage.

He was full of hostility.

"Xiao Chen, it's all because of you that I was severely punished by the Queen and stripped of my position as one of the Eight Great Leaders."

"As a mere junior, what right do you have to sit in my seat? What right do you have to replace me?"

"You piece of trash, you only reached your current strength by luck. If I hadn't been careless last time and misjudged your strength, how could I have lost to you?"

"Today, no matter what, I want you dead!"

Mo Basi let out a loud roar.

He prepared to strike at Xiao Chen.

A sharp cry came, and Yue Mei blocked the path in front of Xiao Chen.

She glared at Mo Basi and demanded, "Mo Basi, what do you think you're doing?"

"If you strike at Xiao Chen, aren't you afraid of the Queen's punishment?"

Seeing Yue Mei, Mo Basi's expression became even uglier.

"Yue Mei, get out of the way!"

"This is between him and me; it has nothing to do with you."

Yue Mei sneered and said, "Nothing to do with me? Xiao Chen is my man, and you say it has nothing to do with me?"

"Mo Basi, the Queen already punished you last time; have you still not learned your lesson?"

"If you strike at Xiao Chen again this time, the Queen will not let you off lightly."

Hearing this, the rage in Mo Basi's eyes grew even more intense.

He had harbored a secret love for Queen Medusa for a long time, a fact many in the tribe knew.

He had cultivated desperately, finally climbing to the position of one of the Eight Great Leaders, all so he could be closer to the Queen.

But the Queen?

She had never spared him a second glance.

And now, for the sake of this trash Xiao Chen, the Queen was punishing him and stripping him of his leadership position.

He could not endure it!
