Now that they have the Heavenly Flames, their relationship with Queen Medusa has also progressed significantly.

The original plan was to rely on time to gradually advance the relationship and let things take their natural course.

But to everyone's surprise, the High Priest was so straightforward.

However, since the High Priest had already made his point clear, Wang Chen naturally wouldn't pretend to refuse.

Once you refuse such a good opportunity, it's incredibly difficult to get it back.

After all, Wang Chen, being a transmigrator, was very aware of Queen Medusa's arrogance.

Now that the High Priest has said so, Queen Medusa must also have some affection for Wang Chen.

If he were to feign a complete rejection, then trying to woo Queen Medusa would be an impossible task.

Wang Chen had no interest in creating problems for himself.

If a problem can be solved easily, it will never be too troublesome.

As expected, the High Priest was very happy to hear Wang Chen's agreement.

Now that her last wish has been fulfilled, she would not feel regret even if she were to perish immediately.

"But what does Queen Medusa mean?"

Although he already had a guess in his mind, Wang Chen still asked the question.

After all, if Queen Medusa only had feelings for him but hadn't yet gone so far as to make their relationship public...

If you rush in headfirst, it will only make things more difficult.

"You don't need to worry about Medusa."

Since I came to find you, it means I already had her permission.

She was just shy and embarrassed to speak up.

That's why this old woman was needed as a matchmaker."

Upon hearing Wang Chen's question, the High Priest offered a few words of explanation.

The High Priest then asked another question.

"By the way, I've finished explaining what I had to say."

"I wonder why you came to see me before, Xiao Chen?"

Since Wang Chen Queen Medusa have established a relationship, he has naturally become closer to the High Priest as well.

Therefore, Wang Chen directly asked the High Priest to call him Xiao Chen, instead of using the distant title of Young Hero Wang.

Wang Chen felt a little embarrassed upon hearing the High Priest's question.

He can't very well say that he came to see you before because of Queen Medusa, can he?

A flash of Spiritual Spark struck Wang Chen, and he then spoke.

"I came to see the High Priest mainly to help High Priest heal his illness."

Wang Chen spoke these words without batting an eye, as if that were his true purpose.

This was the most suitable reason that Wang Chen found after a moment's thought.

Moreover, now that he has established a relationship with Queen Medusa, the High Priest can be considered one of their own.

Wang Chen is very generous to his own people.

Although the High Priest's injuries were all old wounds, the difficulty of treating them was not actually that great.

In any case, the High Priest was nothing more than a low- Dou Zong.

No matter how difficult an injury is to treat, that's only relative.

For Advanced Alchemist like Wang Chen, who has special advantages, High Priest's old and chronic injury is only somewhat difficult, not an insurmountable problem.

Healing the High Priest would also be beneficial to Wang Chen.

After all, the Snake People Tribe needs a master to oversee it.

If the High Priest falls, Queen Medusa, as the only Dou Zong master in the Snake People Tribe, will likely have to stay and oversee the Snake People Tribe.

Wang Chen couldn't stay in the Snake People Tribe forever.

If they wanted to take Queen Medusa with them, they would need to have a skilled Snake People Tribe in charge.

The High Priest, an old Dou Zong of the Snake People Tribe, and one who had a very good relationship with Dou Zong Queen Medusa, was undoubtedly the best choice.

That's why Wang Chen chose to treat the High Priest.

This excuse wasn't something that just popped into my head.

They were all given some thought.

"Oh!"

The High Priest was also very shocked and surprised to hear Wang Chen's words.

After all, she knows her own situation best.

Those injuries were accumulated over time, and it's practically impossible to heal them completely.

Otherwise, she wouldn't have been so pessimistic before, so determined to help Queen Medusa break through.

If she had been able to heal her injuries, she wouldn't have agreed to Queen Medusa's risk in the first place.

The High Priest was naturally extremely surprised to hear Wang Chen say he wanted to treat her injuries.

However, a glimmer of hope then arose in my heart.

After all, who wants to die when they can live a good life?

Now, the Snake People Tribe can be said to be on the right track. Not only has it gained a Queen Medusa at the Dou Zong level, but it has also established a relationship with an Advanced Alchemist.

The subsequent development of the Snake People Tribe will definitely far surpass that of the past.

Under these circumstances, the High Priest naturally hoped to live to see the Snake People Tribe's development.

But there was nothing she could do; her injuries were too severe, to the point that she felt there was no hope left.

Now that Wang Chen actually said he would come to treat her injuries, how could the High Priest not be overjoyed?

After all, Wang Chen is an Advanced Alchemist. What if he has some special method that could directly heal him?

Better to live a miserable life than to die a good death.

This applies not only to humans, but also to Snake-People.

The High Priest stared intently at Wang Chen, then asked, "I wonder how Little Chen intends to heal my injuries?"

"The High Priest's injuries are mostly old wounds left over from the past."

It's just that the lack of proper treatment at the time led to such a significant impact.

"As long as we suppress those old injuries to prevent them from worsening, we can definitely heal them completely with the help of elixirs and the Dou Zong's own recovery ability."

Wang Chen didn't hide anything and directly explained his method.

To be honest, the High Priest's injuries weren't really that serious.

However, because the Snake People Tribe did not have Alchemist, they did not receive proper treatment when they were injured.

That's why she, a dignified Snake-People Dou Zong, doesn't have many years left to live.

You should know that Snake-People Dou Zong is equivalent to a Monster Dou Zong.

Their lifespan is far beyond what any human Dou Zong can match.

If there are no injuries, living another three to five hundred years would be an easy thing.

What was an incurable injury for the Snake People Tribe was nothing to Wang Chen.

The High Priest is now like a rotten tree, his injuries affecting his vitality.

Wang Chen only needed to administer pills to activate the High Priest's own vitality and stop the injury from worsening; the treatment was not particularly difficult.

And coincidentally, Wang Chen possessed both of these pills.

To activate the High Priest's life force, all that's needed is one Azure Nether Longevity Pill.

Adding ten years to one's lifespan, for the current High Priest, it would be an absolute spring of clear sweet water.

Activating vitality is a piece of cake.

To prevent the injury from worsening, all that is needed is one Lower Tier 6 Vitality Pill and one Intermediate Tier 6 Injury Recovery Pill.

These three pills will guarantee the High Priest's complete recovery from his injuries.

Of course, this was very simple for Wang Chen, but for the High Priest and the Snake People Tribe, it was something they wouldn't even dare to dream of.

All three pills were of the Tier 6 grade.

One of them, the Azure Nether Longevity Pill, was Peak Tier 6.

Moreover, it's an elixir that can extend one's lifespan by ten years, which is an extremely tempting prospect for any cultivator.

Those Dou Emperor and Dou Zong with limited lifespans would absolutely spare no effort to compete for this kind of pill.

With the Snake People Tribe's strength alone, there was simply no way they could obtain these elixirs.

That is why the High Priest's injuries have been delayed until now.

However, for Wang Chen, problems that can be solved with pills are minor issues.

A few grade -Tier 6 Medicinal Pill were no problem for Wang Chen at all.

Without keeping anyone in suspense, Wang Chen directly revealed his treatment plan.

However, to Wang Chen's surprise, the High Priest was initially taken aback, and then immediately refused.

"Why?"

Wang Chen was completely baffled by the High Priest's refusal.

Seeing Wang Chen's sincere expression, the High Priest also spoke up to explain.

"This price is too high; the Snake People Tribe cannot afford it."

The High Priest's explanation left Wang Chen somewhat bewildered.

"We're all on the same side, it doesn't matter whether we give it to them or not."

"It's precisely because you treat us like family that I won't accept you."

The High Priest also refused.

To be honest, the High Priest was initially very excited when he heard Wang Chen say that he had a way to heal himself.

However, after listening to Wang Chen's explanation, she refused without even thinking.

Judging from the financial resources Wang Chen has demonstrated recently, she believes Wang Chen is absolutely capable of producing those pills.

However, the Snake People Tribe simply could not afford this price.

Although the Snake People Tribe still has some savings in its Treasure Vault.

However, Wang Chen didn't even bother with it; there were no valuable items inside that could be exchanged for pills.

As for the idea of taking Wang Chen's elixirs for treatment for free, the High Priest never even considered it.

As an elderly woman well-versed in social etiquette, she was very aware of the consequences of doing so.

Wang Chen probably won't have any thoughts on this for the time being.

But a small favor is appreciated, while an excessive one breeds resentment!

If I accept Wang Chen's gift now, it will definitely affect my relationship with Wang Chen later.

Compared to treating her own injuries, her relationship with Wang Chen was more important.

After all, the Snake People Tribe now has a Queen Medusa at the Dou Zong level.

Whether or not I am there doesn't make a particularly big difference.

However, whether or not Wang Chen, an Advanced Alchemist, exists, will have a significant impact on the Snake People Tribe.

It was precisely because of these considerations that the High Priest directly rejected Wang Chen's proposal.

Seeing the High Priest's resolute attitude, Wang Chen tried to persuade him again.

Although Wang Chen wasn't entirely clear on the High Priest's thoughts, he had roughly guessed some of them from their previous interactions.

Wang Chen didn't care much about just a few pills.

The addition of a Dou Zong to the Snake People Tribe, which suddenly freed Queen Medusa, was even more important to Wang Chen.

Wang Chen began by explaining how important it was for the Snake People Tribe to have an additional Dou Zong.

But these words did not move the High Priest at all.

After all, the High Priest understood this principle all too well.

Since they chose to refuse, they must have considered this reason.

Unable to fool anyone with his excuses, Wang Chen chose to tell the truth.

"High Priest, I also have a selfish motive in healing your injuries."

I certainly can't stay in the Snake People Tribe forever; I'll eventually have to leave the Tagor Desert.

I hope Medusa can come with me then."

"However, the Snake People Tribe cannot be without Dou Zong to oversee it. Healing you will also benefit myself."

Upon hearing this, the High Priest's heart softened considerably.

She doesn't care about her own life.

But she couldn't ignore the Snake People Tribe Queen Medusa.

"If I die, Queen Medusa will definitely be tied down by the Snake People Tribe and will have no chance to leave the Snake People Tribe at will."

"Then Wang Chen, an Advanced Alchemist, will inevitably have to leave the Snake People Tribe."

Long-distance relationships, where two people live in different places, are definitely not a good thing.

In an instant, the High Priest thought of something he hadn't considered before.

This also put her in a bit of a dilemma.

Accepting Wang Chen's kindness for nothing could easily damage the relationship between the two.

Refusing Wang Chen's offer could also affect the relationship between Queen Medusa and Wang Chen.

Seeing the High Priest's expression, Wang Chen knew he had persuaded him.

However, the other party is still somewhat hesitant, so I need to strike while the iron is hot.

"Alright then, High Priest."

My demand for Exotic Metal is still very high.

"Or you could arrange for a special prospecting team to find the Exotic Metal I can exchange for healing pills."

"In this way, no one will be at a disadvantage."

Wang Chen's words gave the High Priest a way out.

Although people were assigned to search for the Exotic Metal, the number of people was not particularly large, and they were not particularly professional.

After all, the Snake People Tribe such a large operation that it's impossible for them to dedicate all their manpower to searching for the so-called Exotic Metal.

After all, the pills that can be exchanged are useful, but not eating or taking precautions won't work either.

However, once her injuries are healed, she will be able to free up some of the high-level guard forces.

After all, a fully-fledged Dou Zong is definitely more useful than some Dou Ling Dou Wang.

Once she fully recovers from her injuries, she can easily redeploy some of the personnel guarding the imperial city to search for the Exotic Metal.

More powerful experts are also more efficient at finding Exotic Metal.

This way, she could preserve her previous relationship with Wang Chen while also enhancing the Snake People Tribe's foundation.

"Then I'll have to trouble you, Xiao Chen."

Having come to a realization, the High Priest no longer refused Wang Chen's kindness.

"Well, my injury has been going on for so long, there's no rush."

"Go and talk to Medusa for a while, and we'll discuss my injuries tomorrow."

After confirming the extent of the injuries, the High Priest spoke.

Wang Chen Queen Medusa have only just established a relationship, and that relationship was confirmed through her as the matchmaker.

This is precisely the time to have a good talk and strengthen our relationship.

Since her injuries weren't going to worsen anytime soon, she naturally suggested that Wang Chen Queen Medusa talk for a while first.

With Wang Chen's situation settled, the High Priest also went to see Queen Medusa.

After explaining the situation to Queen Medusa in detail, he left the space and time to the two young people Wang Chen Queen Medusa.

Although neither of them were particularly good at communicating, now that their relationship had been established, Wang Chen was no longer as shy and restrained as before.

After all, he was a time traveler; even if he hadn't eaten pork, he'd at least seen pigs run.

He briefly shared some interesting anecdotes from his own cultivation journey, which helped to bridge the gap between Queen Medusa.

Of course, the main reason was that Queen Medusa originally had this intention as well.

Otherwise, how could a few short stories have attracted Queen Medusa had already broken through to the Dou Zong?

And so, after a day of conversation, Wang Chen Queen Medusa's feelings for each other gradually warmed up.

After Wang Chen finished telling his story, Queen Medusa, the host, even took Wang Chen on a tour of the Snake People Tribe's royal city.

It must be said that although the Snake People Tribe lives in the barren Tagor Desert, they have a unique charm.

The architectural style is completely different from anything I've seen before.

The buildings Wang Chen had seen elsewhere in the past were all incredibly ornate.

The architecture of the Snake People Tribe embodies the principle of simplicity.

As long as the needs are met, keep it as simple as possible.

Only in this way can resources be saved to the greatest extent.

After spending a day with Queen Medusa, Wang Chen's relationship with her deepened rapidly.

Although we haven't reached the final step yet, we've already done things like holding hands.

This is completely different from the so-called blind dates of my previous life.

Having reached this point, Wang Chen did not rush things.

After finishing their visit, they said goodbye and did not pursue the matter further.

After returning to his room, Wang Chen began to ponder the matter of treating the High Priest.

In this situation, the High Priest is now considered one of their own.

Wang Chen naturally paid more attention to his own people.

After healing the High Priest, I will have another Dou Zong fighter to fight.

Although for Wang Chen at this moment, a mere Dou Zong helper is not that important.

But having one more friend is always better than having one more enemy.

On this Northwestern Continent, Dou Zong is already considered a top-tier combat force that can be presented to others.

Having another friend like this would be very helpful for Wang Chen in finding various resources later on.

"Let's add another Bone Sculpting Pill."

After pondering for a moment, Wang Chen decided to add another pill.

However, the Bone Sculpting Pill was only Advanced Tier 6 pill, which was nothing to Wang Chen.

However, it still has some effect on treating injuries, especially old ones.

This formula was something I learned at the Jia Nan Academy.

However, it wasn't of any use at that time, so Wang Chen only refined one batch of pills.

Fortunately, after being enhanced by the Golden Finger, the quantity of pills produced in a single batch was still quite considerable.

It's perfect for treating the High Priest now.

After finalizing the treatment plan, Wang Chen began to rest.
