The other leaders were also shocked, but none dared to speak.
The First Elder looked at Queen Medusa, his eyes filled with astonishment.
He also could not understand why the Queen would treat her grandson so well.
However, since this was a good thing, he naturally would not object.
"Your Majesty, how many people should I bring for this trip?"
The First Elder asked.
"No need to bring anyone, I will go alone."
Queen Medusa said indifferently, "I will be back shortly."
"Yes."
The First Elder said respectfully.
Queen Medusa stood up and scanned the crowd.
"You may all withdraw."
Queen Medusa said.
Everyone bowed in unison and exited the great hall.
After the Second Elder walked out of the hall, his expression was terrifyingly gloomy.
"A piece of trash, on what grounds..."
The Second Elder cursed in a low voice, "On what grounds does he get to marry Yue Mei and take concubines..."
"What exactly is the Queen thinking?"
He could not understand it, nor did he dare to say any more.
He could only grit his teeth and leave in a huff.
Queen Medusa stood in the great hall, gazing at the desert in the distance.
"Multi-Child Multi-Blessing..."
Queen Medusa murmured, "To become stronger by uniting with women..."
"I would like to see just how strong Xiao Chen can become."
After saying this, Queen Medusa's figure flashed and she vanished from the hall.
After Queen Medusa left the Snake-People Tribe, the news quickly spread throughout the tribe.
The Queen had personally gone out to select a concubine for Xiao Chen.
This news was like a giant boulder thrown into a lake, stirring up a thousand ripples.
The tribesmen discussed it heatedly.
"The Queen personally went to select a concubine for Xiao Chen? Isn't that just too absurd?"
"Xiao Chen is nothing but a Three-Star Dou Zhe piece of trash, why does he deserve such treatment?"
"First it was Lady Yue Mei, and now he is to take a concubine; what is the Queen thinking?"
"Exactly, so many outstanding geniuses in the tribe don't have such luck, why should it be his turn?"
The discussions rose and fell, filled with indignation.
As Xiao Chen walked through the tribe, he could feel the gazes cast upon him.
There was jealousy, disdain, and confusion.
He remained expressionless and walked straight toward his residence.
Halfway there, a figure blocked his path.
The Second Elder.
The Second Elder looked at Xiao Chen, his expression terrifyingly gloomy.
"Xiao Chen, what kind of sweet talk did you use to deceive the Queen?"
The Second Elder asked coldly.
Xiao Chen looked at him and said indifferently, "Second Elder, I don't know what you are talking about."
"You don't know?"
The Second Elder sneered, "The Queen personally went out to select a concubine for you, and you tell me you don't know?"
"You, a Three-Star Dou Zhe piece of trash, on what grounds do you deserve such treatment?"
"You must have used some shameful methods to deceive the Queen!"
Xiao Chen frowned.
"Second Elder, speak with evidence."
Xiao Chen said coldly, "You say I deceived the Queen, but do you have any evidence?"
"Evidence?"
Second Elder said disdainfully, "You, a piece of trash, suddenly receiving such favor—do you really need evidence?"
"Besides using sweet talk to deceive her, what other skills could you possibly have?"
Xiao Chen looked at him, a flash of coldness crossing his eyes.
He was now a Nine-Star Dou Wang, so there was no need to fear Second Elder at all.
"Second Elder, I respect you as an elder, but don't go too far."
Xiao Chen said coldly.
"Too far?"
Second Elder shouted angrily, "You, a piece of trash, dare to speak to me like that?"
"I think you're asking for a lesson!"
After Second Elder finished speaking, Dou Qi erupted from his body.
The aura of a Dou Wang pressed down toward Xiao Chen.
Xiao Chen stood where he was, not moving an inch.
This bit of aura meant nothing to him.
The gap between a Nine-Star Dou Wang and an ordinary Dou Wang was like a chasm.
Just then, a figure suddenly blocked the path in front of Xiao Chen.
First Elder.
First Elder also erupted with Dou Qi, blocking Second Elder's pressure.
"Second brother, that's enough!"
First Elder said angrily, "Xiao Chen is my grandson. For you to attack him right in front of me, you clearly don't hold me in any regard!"
"Big brother, don't protect him!"
Second Elder's face turned livid, "This piece of trash has no respect for his elders; he deserves a lesson!"
"Otherwise, he'll keep thinking he actually has some real ability!"
"No respect for his elders?"
First Elder said coldly, "You were the one who spoke rudely first, so why blame Xiao Chen?"
"I spoke rudely?"
Second Elder raged, "I spoke the truth! He is just a piece of trash!"
"You!"
First Elder trembled with anger, his Dou Qi surging even more violently.
The two stood at loggerheads, the atmosphere tense and ready to snap.
Just then, a cold, clear voice suddenly rang out.
"Stop."
Everyone was stunned and turned to look.
Yue Mei walked over, dressed in a purple dress with a cold expression on her face.
She walked to Xiao Chen's side and looked at Second Elder.
"Second Elder, what are you trying to do?"
Yue Mei said indifferently.
"Yue Mei, you've come at the right time."
Second Elder hurriedly said, "This piece of trash has no respect for his elders, and I am just about to teach him a lesson."
"Move aside, don't get in the way."
Yue Mei looked at him, a flash of coldness in her eyes.
"Whoever touches Xiao Chen must get past me first."
Yue Mei said indifferently.
As soon as these words were spoken, Second Elder froze.
First Elder was also stunned.
The surrounding clansmen were all dumbfounded.
Lady Yue Mei... is protecting Xiao Chen?
Second Elder looked at Yue Mei in disbelief.
"Yue Mei, what did you say?"
The Second Elder exclaimed in shock, "You are protecting this piece of trash?"
"I said it once, whoever touches Xiao Chen must get past me first."
Yue Mei repeated, her voice cold and detached.
"You... you..."
The Second Elder's eyes widened. "You weren't like this before."
"Why now..."
"That was before."
Yue Mei said indifferently, "Now he is my husband, and no one is allowed to touch him."
The Second Elder's expression shifted uncertainly.
He could not fathom how Yue Mei had suddenly started protecting Xiao Chen.
Previously, Yue Mei had clearly looked down on this piece of trash as well.
How could her attitude change completely overnight?
"Yue Mei, do you even know what you are saying?"
The Second Elder gritted his teeth. "This piece of trash is not worthy of you at all!"
"Whether he is worthy or not is not for you to decide."
Yue Mei said calmly, "From now on, in the Snake-People Tribe, I will be the one looking after Xiao Chen."
"Bullying him is the same as looking down on me."
The Second Elder's face turned livid.
He looked at Yue Mei, then at Xiao Chen, his lips trembling.
"Fine... fine..."
The Second Elder repeated the word "fine" twice before turning to leave.
The First Elder watched Yue Mei, his eyes filled with astonishment.
He had not expected Yue Mei to protect Xiao Chen to such an extent.
What on earth... had Xiao Chen done?
The surrounding tribesmen dared not say another word and scattered one after another.
Yue Mei glanced at Xiao Chen and turned to leave.
Xiao Chen stood where he was, the corners of his mouth curling up slightly.
After returning to his room, the First Elder sat on a stone chair, remaining silent for a long time.
A moment later, Xiao Chen walked in.
"Grandfather."
Xiao Chen said respectfully.
The First Elder looked at him, his eyes filled with complex emotions.
"Xiao Chen, what exactly did you do?"
The First Elder could not help but ask, "How could that girl Yue Mei protect you so fiercely?"
"I know her temperament better than anyone; she is extremely arrogant."
"She looked down on you before, so how did it happen overnight..."
Xiao Chen smiled.
"Grandfather, that is a secret."
Xiao Chen said.
The First Elder looked at him and sighed.
"Fine, if you don't want to say, I won't force you."
The First Elder said, "But you brat, you are truly not simple."
"To have tamed Yue Mei so quickly, it is truly remarkable."
"Grandfather, you flatter me."
Xiao Chen laughed.
The First Elder took one more look at him and waved his hand.
"Alright, you can go back now."
The First Elder said, "Treat Yue Mei well, and don't let her down."
"Rest assured, Grandfather."
Xiao Chen finished speaking and turned to leave.
When Xiao Chen returned to the wedding chamber, Yue Mei was sitting on the edge of the bed.
Seeing Xiao Chen enter, the corners of her mouth curled upward slightly.
"You're back?"
Yue Mei asked.
Xiao Chen nodded and sat down on the edge of the bed.
Yue Mei looked at him, a hint of a smile in her eyes.
"Are you satisfied with what happened just now?"
Yue Mei asked, her voice carrying a trace of seduction.
