How Strong Was Lu Chuan, Exactly?

Over the next few days, the atmosphere within the Snake-People Tribe noticeably changed.

Ever since news spread that Jia Xing Tian had personally paid them a visit, the entire tribe had been discussing it. Everyone wore undisguised excitement and anticipation on their faces.

After all, the Jia Ma Empire's imperial grand elder had personally come to visit the Snake-People Tribe. In the past, such a thing had been unimaginable.

And the root of all these changes was what the Sky Screen had revealed: their queen would one day marry that mysterious expert.

On the training grounds, several young snake-people gathered together and discussed it eagerly. "Tell me, what does that expert Lu Chuan actually look like? Someone who could make Her Majesty fall for him couldn't be bad, right?"

"He's a Peak Nine-Star Dou Saint, someone standing at the very pinnacle of the entire continent. No matter what he looks like, it isn't our place to judge."

"That's true. I just want to know when Her Majesty will bring that expert back to the tribe so we can see him for ourselves."

"What's the rush? The Sky Screen already said they would definitely marry in the future. We'll see him sooner or later."

As Yue Mei passed by and heard their conversation, she did not stop them. She merely smiled, shook her head, and walked away.

When she reached the entrance of the royal palace hall, she happened to see Queen Medusa walking out. The queen looked somewhat distracted. "Your Majesty, where are you going?"

Queen Medusa glanced at her. "Out for a walk. I've been cooped up in the hall for too long these past two days."

Yue Mei nodded and did not ask further. She simply followed silently behind Queen Medusa. The two then walked one after the other through the streets of the Snake-People Tribe. Whenever passing snake-people saw their queen, they respectfully bowed and watched her leave.

After walking for a while, Queen Medusa arrived at a high place from which she could overlook the entire Tagor Desert. The sight of endless yellow sands filled her view.

She stood there in silence for a long while before speaking. "Yue Mei, do you think what the Sky Screen shows is truly destined?"

Yue Mei was taken aback by the question. After thinking for a moment, she answered, "Your Majesty, the Sky Screen shows things from the future, but what the future will truly be like is something no one can say for certain."

"However, if that expert Lu Chuan truly exists and is genuinely willing to treat our Snake-People Tribe well, then that may not be a bad thing."

Queen Medusa fell silent for a while and said nothing more. Then, a golden light suddenly appeared in the distant sky.

Queen Medusa and Yue Mei raised their heads at the same time. The familiar Sky Screen appeared out of thin air once more in midair.

The moment Queen Medusa saw the Sky Screen appear, her heartbeat suddenly quickened. Her eyes fixed on the slowly emerging words, wondering what it would reveal this time.

Line by line, golden words appeared on the Sky Screen. They stated that someone had created a body-tempering technique called the Dragon-Phoenix Body Tempering Formula. After cultivating it, one could possess the physical strength of the Ancient Void Dragon Clan while also gaining the recovery abilities of the Nine-Colored Heaven Swallowing Python.

Queen Medusa was completely stunned when she saw this information. The physical strength of the Ancient Void Dragon Clan? The recovery abilities of the Nine-Colored Heaven Swallowing Python?
