Xiao Chen repeated, "Po Zong Pill, Queen should have heard of it."
Medusa had certainly heard of it.
The Po Zong Pill was a treasure capable of allowing a peak Dou Emperor to break through to the Dou Ancestor realm.
It could not be found anywhere in the entire Jia Ma Empire.
"Where did you get it from?"
Medusa asked in a deep voice.
"An opportunity from Multi-Child Multi-Blessing."
Xiao Chen said, "I just obtained it last night."
Medusa fell silent.
She stared at the Po Zong Pill in Xiao Chen's hand, a flicker of desire flashing through her eyes.
Dou Ancestor.
She had been stuck at the peak of the Dou Emperor realm for too long.
If she could break through to the Dou Ancestor realm, the situation of the Snake-People Tribe would improve significantly.
Those human powerhouses in the Jia Ma Empire would never dare to look down on the Snake-People Tribe again.
Medusa took a deep breath, suppressing the excitement in her heart.
"Are you giving it to me?"
Medusa asked.
"Yes."
Xiao Chen said, "Thank you, Queen, for letting me take two wives."
"This Po Zong Pill shall be my token of gratitude."
Medusa looked at him without speaking.
"However..."
Xiao Chen shifted the tone of the conversation.
"However what?"
Medusa asked.
"However, Queen still needs to help me take two more wives."
Xiao Chen said.
Upon hearing this, Medusa was stunned for a moment.
"Two?"
Medusa asked.
"Two."
Xiao Chen nodded.
Medusa looked at him, silent for a moment.
"Deal."
Medusa said, "This Queen agrees to your terms."
Xiao Chen smiled and handed the Po Zong Pill to Medusa.
Medusa took the medicinal pill, looking at the Po Zong Pill in her palm with complex emotions in her eyes.
"Are you not afraid that once I take the pill, I will go back on my word?"
Medusa asked.
"Queen is not that kind of person, and besides, if I become stronger, it will also be of great benefit to the Snake-People Tribe."
Xiao Chen said.
Medusa glanced at him without saying a word.
"Then I shall await good news from Queen."
After saying this, Xiao Chen turned and left.
Medusa stood where she was, watching Xiao Chen's departing back.
She looked down at the Po Zong Pill in her palm and muttered to herself.
"Two wives..."
Medusa whispered, "It seems I will have to make another trip to the human empire."
She turned and walked back to the cultivation chamber, sitting down cross-legged.
Medusa looked at the Po Zong Pill in her hand and took a deep breath.
She did not consume it immediately.
The medicinal efficacy of the Po Zong Pill was extremely potent, requiring absolute focus during consumption.
Medusa closed her eyes, adjusting the Dou Qi within her body.
A moment later, she opened her eyes and popped the Po Zong Pill into her mouth.
As the pill entered her stomach, a surge of majestic medicinal power erupted instantly.
Medusa's expression shifted, and she hurriedly circulated her Dou Qi, guiding the medicinal power to strike against that barrier.
Once.
Twice.
Thrice.
The barrier that had held her back for many years began to loosen.
Medusa gritted her teeth and continued the assault.
After Xiao Chen left Medusa's cultivation room, he did not return directly to his quarters.
He walked through the tribe, feeling quite pleased.
He had given the Po Zong Pill to Medusa and gained two wives in return.
This was a deal that was not a loss.
Once Medusa returned from the human empire, his strength would rise once more.
The corners of Xiao Chen's mouth curled upward slightly.
He returned to his quarters, where Qing Lin was sitting inside waiting for him.
"You're back?"
Qing Lin asked.
Xiao Chen nodded and sat down beside her.
"Have you... been to see sister Yue Mei?"
Qing Lin asked in a low voice.
Xiao Chen glanced at her.
"What, are you jealous?"
"No..."
Qing Lin lowered her head, her face turning slightly red.
Xiao Chen chuckled and reached out to stroke her head.
"I'll spend tomorrow with you."
Xiao Chen said.
Qing Lin nodded, not saying anything more.
The next morning.
Medusa walked out of the cultivation room.
Her aura was significantly stronger than it had been yesterday.
Dou Ancestor.
She had finally broken through to the Dou Ancestor realm.
Medusa clenched her fists, feeling the majestic Dou Qi within her body.
The gap between a Dou Emperor and a Dou Ancestor was like a chasm.
"Xiao Chen..."
Medusa murmured.
If not for that Po Zong Pill, she did not know how much longer she would have remained stuck at the peak of the Dou Emperor realm.
Medusa took a deep breath and walked toward the main hall.
In the main hall.
The several elders had already gathered.
First Elder sat at the head of the left side, and Second Elder sat at the head of the right side.
Third Elder and Fourth Elder sat further down.
Seeing Medusa walk in, everyone stood up.
"Queen."
Everyone bowed in unison.
Medusa nodded and sat upon the throne.
"Queen, your aura..."
First Elder's expression shifted, his eyes filled with shock.
"I have broken through."
Medusa said indifferently.
First Elder's eyes widened.
"Dou... Dou Ancestor?"
First Elder's voice was trembling.
"Correct."
Medusa nodded.
The great hall erupted in an uproar.
The several elders were dumbfounded.
Dou Ancestor.
The Queen had broken through to the Dou Ancestor realm?
Second Elder's face turned deathly pale, and he was unable to speak.
Third Elder and Fourth Elder exchanged glances, both seeing the shock in each other's eyes.
"Congratulations to the Queen on breaking through to the Dou Ancestor realm!"
First Elder was the first to react, bowing as he spoke.
"Congratulations to the Queen!"
The other elders also bowed one after another.
Medusa waved her hand.
"All of you, rise."
Medusa said calmly.
Everyone straightened up and sat back down.
"I have summoned you all here today to announce something."
Medusa said.
"I am going to the human empire once more."
First Elder was stunned.
"The Queen has just broken through, yet you are going to the human empire?"
First Elder asked.
"Correct."
Medusa nodded.
"May I ask what the purpose of your visit is, Queen?"
First Elder asked.
Medusa glanced at him and spoke slowly.
"To take concubines for Xiao Chen."
Medusa said.
The great hall erupted in an uproar once again.
Second Elder's expression changed; he wanted to speak, but shut his mouth instead.
He dared not oppose her now.
Neither Xiao Chen's strength nor the Queen's strength was something he could question.
"How many are you taking this time?"
First Elder asked.
"Two."
Medusa said.
First Elder was taken aback for a moment, then nodded.
"Rest assured, Queen, I will handle the affairs within the tribe."
First Elder said.
Medusa nodded.
"I shall return shortly."
After saying this, Medusa rose and left the great hall.
Medusa left the Snake-People Tribe and flew toward the direction of the human empire.
The speed of a Dou Ancestor was countless times faster than that of a Dou Emperor.
She soon saw a city in the distance.
Medusa suppressed her aura and landed on the ground.
After a moment of thought, she decided to head to the Holy City first.
Wu Tan City was the capital of the Jia Ma Empire, and it was densely populated.
She should be able to find a suitable candidate there.
Medusa's figure flickered as she flew toward the capital.
Snake-People Tribe.
Mo Basi lay on the bed in his quarters, his entire body wrapped in bandages.
Both of his arms were broken, his dantian had been crippled, and all the Dou Qi within his body had drained away.
He had gone from a powerful Eight-Star Dou Wang to a cripple inferior even to an ordinary person.
"Xiao Chen..."
Mo Basi gritted his teeth as he spat out the name.
His eyes were filled with hatred, but even more so with despair.
He lay on the bed, staring at the ceiling with hollow eyes.
Just then, a snake-person rushed in.
"Lord Mo Basi, great news, incredible news!"
The snake-person said urgently.
Mo Basi did not move.
"What good news could there be..."
Mo Basi asked weakly.
"Queen has broken through to become a Dou Ancestor!"
The snake-person said excitedly, "Queen is now a Dou Ancestor powerhouse!"
Mo Basi sat up abruptly, which tugged at his wounds and made him gasp in pain.
"What did you say?"
Mo Basi's eyes widened.
"Queen has broken through to become a Dou Ancestor!"
The snake-person repeated, "It is absolutely true; the elders have already confirmed it!"
Mo Basi froze in place, his eyes filled with shock.
Dou Ancestor.
Queen had broken through to become a Dou Ancestor?
