Could this be a Dou Zong expert?

Mo Basi felt a surge of excitement in his heart.

A Dou Zong powerhouse was the strongest existence in the Jia Ma Empire.

With a Dou Zong powerhouse holding the fort, the Snake-People Tribe would no longer have to fear those human experts.

"This is great... this is wonderful..."

Mo Basi muttered, a glint of brilliance flashing in his eyes.

"Now that Queen has broken through to the Dou Zong realm, she will surely declare war on the human empire!"

The more Mo Basi spoke, the more excited he became.

"Those human experts used to bully our Snake-People Tribe, now it is time for them to pay their debts!"

"Queen will definitely lead our Snake-People Tribe to trample the human empire!"

The Snake-Person heard this and his expression turned somewhat strange.

"Lord Mo Basi, Queen, she..."

The Snake-Person stammered.

"What is it?"

Mo Basi frowned and asked.

"After Queen broke through to the Dou Zong realm, she immediately left the Snake-People Tribe."

The Snake-Person said.

"Where did she go?"

Mo Basi asked.

"She went to the human empire."

The Snake-Person said.

A flash of joy crossed Mo Basi's eyes.

"As I thought!"

Mo Basi said excitedly, "Queen must have gone to the human empire to start a war!"

"With Queen's strength as a Dou Zong, who among those Dou Huang powerhouses in the Jia Ma Empire could be her match?"

"This time, we must let those humans know the might of our Snake-People Tribe."

The more Mo Basi spoke, the more excited he became, as if he had forgotten the wounds on his body.

The Snake-Person looked at Mo Basi, wanting to say something but hesitating.

"Lord Mo Basi, there is one more thing..."

The Snake-Person began.

"What is it?"

Mo Basi asked.

"Queen went to the human empire, but it was not to start a war with them."

The Snake-Person said.

Mo Basi was stunned.

"Not to start a war? Then what did she go there for?"

Mo Basi asked.

"Queen went to..."

The Snake-Person hesitated for a moment, "She went to become a concubine for Xiao Chen."

Mo Basi froze.

"What did you say?"

"Queen went to the human empire to become a concubine for Xiao Chen."

The Snake-Person repeated, "And she is taking two."

Mo Basi's face turned deathly pale.

He sat on the bed, his entire body trembling.

"A concubine... becoming a concubine for Xiao Chen..."

Mo Basi muttered, his eyes filled with disbelief.

"Queen breaks through to the Dou Zong realm, and the first thing she does is not to start a war, but to go and become a concubine for that piece of trash?"

"Why? By what right does he deserve this?"

The more Mo Basi spoke, the more agitated he became, his voice trembling.

"My Dou Qi was crippled by him, and I have become a useless person..."

"Not only is Queen Medusa refusing to punish him, but she is also going to take a concubine for him?"

"On what grounds!"

Mo Basi let out a furious roar, which tugged at his wounds and twisted his face in pain.

The Snake-Person looked at Mo Basi, not daring to speak.

Mo Basi lay on the bed, gasping for air.

His eyes were filled with hatred, but even more so with helplessness.

He was a cripple now.

A cripple who was not even as good as an ordinary person.

What did he have left to take revenge on Xiao Chen?

He hated.

He hated Xiao Chen.

Qing Lin's residence.

Qing Lin sat by the edge of the bed, a trace of worry on her face.

Xiao Chen pushed the door open and walked in.

"What's wrong?"

Xiao Chen asked.

Qing Lin raised her head and looked at him.

"I heard... that Queen Medusa has gone to the human empire."

Qing Lin said.

"Mm."

Xiao Chen nodded, "She went to take a concubine for me."

Qing Lin bit her lip.

"Taking another concubine..."

Qing Lin whispered.

Xiao Chen looked at her and smiled.

"What, are you jealous?"

"No..."

Qing Lin lowered her head, her face turning slightly red.

"I'm just worried..."

Qing Lin said, "You have taken so many wives, I wonder if in the future you will..."

Xiao Chen looked at her without saying a word.

He reached out and gently lifted Qing Lin's chin.

Qing Lin bit her lip, a flash of shyness appearing in her eyes.

Qing Lin leaned into his embrace, remaining silent.

Xiao Chen held her close and whispered something into her ear.

Qing Lin's face flushed red to the tips of her ears instantly.

"You... what are you saying..."

Qing Lin whispered, her voice trembling.

Xiao Chen smiled and said nothing.

He reached out and pulled Qing Lin even tighter.

Qing Lin leaned into his embrace, her heart beating wildly.

Jia Ma Empire, Imperial Capital.

Queen Medusa walked along the street, having restrained her aura.

Queen Medusa looked around, her gaze landing on a mansion in the distance.

Nalan Clan.

One of the great families of the Jia Ma Empire.

Queen Medusa was about to head in that direction when she suddenly stopped in her tracks.

She sensed the aura of a powerful expert.

In the direction of the Nalan Clan.

Dou Huang level.

Medusa frowned, her figure flickering as she flew toward the Nalan Clan.

Nalan Clan.

In the main hall, Nalan Jie sat in the seat of honor, his face livid.

Nalan Yanran stood to the side, head bowed.

Yun Yun sat in the guest seat, expressionless.

"You went to the Xiao Clan to annul the engagement?"

Nalan Jie looked at Nalan Yanran, his voice icy.

"You certainly have a lot of nerve!"

"How could you not consult the family about such a major matter?"

Nalan Yanran bit her lip.

"Grandfather, I..."

"You what?"

Nalan Jie roared, "Even though the Xiao Clan has fallen, they are not for you to humiliate as you please!"

"You annulled the engagement right in front of them, leaving the Xiao Clan with no way to save face. If this gets out, what will others think of our Nalan Clan?"

Nalan Yanran's face flushed red.

"Grandfather, I don't like Xiao Yan."

Nalan Yanran said, "Why should I marry him?"

"Don't like him?"

Nalan Jie said coldly, "Since when does a major marriage matter depend on whether you like it or not?"

"When this engagement was set years ago, back when Xiao Yan was still a genius, why didn't you say anything then?"

Nalan Yanran gritted her teeth.

"The past is the past, and the present is the present."

Nalan Yanran said, "I am now a disciple of the Misty Cloud Sect, and my master is the Sect Leader of the Misty Cloud Sect."

"What right does a piece of trash like Xiao Yan have to marry me?"

"You."

Nalan Jie trembled with rage.

Yun Yun spoke up at this moment.

"Clan Leader Nalan, I was aware of Yanran's decision to annul the engagement."

Yun Yun said indifferently, "This matter was indeed handled improperly, but since it has already come to this, there is no use in saying more."

Nalan Jie looked at Yun Yun, his expression softening slightly.

"Sect Leader Yun, I am not targeting you."

Nalan Jie said, "It is just that this girl is too ignorant."

"Such a major matter as annulling an engagement, and she didn't even give us a heads-up."

Nalan Yanran lowered her head, not daring to speak.

"Grandfather, rest assured, I will definitely surpass Xiao Yan."

Nalan Yanran said, "I will not bring shame to the Nalan Clan."

Nalan Jie let out a cold snort.

"Surpass Xiao Yan?"

Nalan Jie said coldly, "Xiao Yan is a piece of trash now; what is so impressive about surpassing him?"

"You should be comparing yourself to true geniuses, not to a piece of trash."

Nalan Yanran's face turned pale.

Just as Yun Yun was about to speak, her expression suddenly changed.

She stood up abruptly and looked out the window.

"What is it?"

Nalan Jie asked.

"A powerful expert is approaching."

Yun Yun said in a deep voice, "Very powerful."

Nalan Jie's expression shifted as he, too, sensed that aura.

"What level of expert is this..."

Nalan Jie's voice trembled slightly.

Having lived for so many years, he had never felt such a terrifying aura.

Nalan Su also stood up, his face deathly pale.

"Dou... Dou Zong?"

Nalan Su's voice was shaking.

Yun Yun's expression was grave.
