Your Majesty the Queen, I Came to Admit My Mistake

"Chief Mo Bas, Her Majesty summoned that human today. In less than an hour, he was carried out covered in blood. It was miserable—he had only one breath left."

Somewhere, a snake-person soldier said this to Mo Bas.

"Looks like I was overthinking it. Her Majesty had no intention of favoring that brat."

After so much time had passed, Mo Bas found it rather unbelievable that the human was still alive.

His Highness had gone to receive the inheritance. With no one to protect that human, Her Majesty should have executed him.

But after asking around, he learned that not only was the human alive, Elder Ba Lu had even strongly defended him during yesterday's clan meeting.

Her Majesty's words had also seemed to favor that human.

This enraged Mo Bas.

He had thought that if Her Majesty did nothing to the human today, he would sneak into the palace tonight and kill him.

Even if Her Majesty found out afterward, she could not possibly kill him over a mere human.

Now that he had heard this news, Mo Bas felt he should wait a little longer. Perhaps Her Majesty had refrained from killing the human because she was still considering His Highness.

Her Majesty's actions had already made her stance clear.

"Mm, you may leave." Mo Bas felt somewhat relieved.

But the snake-person soldier added, "However, Her Majesty arranged for that human to stay in her own Side Hall."

"What?"

Mo Bas was instantly startled upon hearing this.

His newly settled heart rose again.

Could it be that Her Majesty truly intended to protect that human?

"Chief Mo Bas, then should we...?"

The snake-person guard made a suggestive gesture.

Snake-people and humans had fought for over a thousand years, their hatred accumulating over time.

If that human had not been living in the royal palace, they would have skinned him alive long ago.

"Since Her Majesty arranged for that human to stay in the Side Hall, if we want to kill him, we must first lure Her Majesty away."

But Mo Bas was nothing more than a brute. After pondering for a long while without coming up with a solution, he slapped the snake-person soldier on the head.

"Idiot, hurry up and think of something."

The familiar wooden barrel, an unfamiliar place.

Chen Mo looked at the enormous bedchamber. Tables, stools, vases, and all sorts of decorations were present, while the floor was covered in a layer of pale yellow beast-fur carpet.

The bed farther inside even had curtains hanging on both sides. It was simply incomparable to the small room he had lived in before.

The style was extremely similar to that of Queen Medusa's bedchamber.

Chen Mo's head felt somewhat dizzy.

He lowered his head for a look.

Fuck!

Who stripped off all my clothes?

And these injuries...

Chen Mo remembered vomiting a great deal of blood before he lost consciousness. His injuries had been severe.

But now, he felt almost completely recovered.

How long was I unconscious?

Chen Mo opened his status panel.

What a massive profit.

Chen Mo checked his inventory again.

Incense Stick's Worth of Enlightenment Time x5, Third Grade Dou Master Pill, Undying Mysterious Skill - Golden Body Chapter

As for the pills and other items he had acquired earlier, Chen Mo had stored them all in his Storage Ring.

Chen Mo read the description of the Third Grade Dou Master Pill.

It had a certain chance of raising the strength of a Dou Master by one level, but each person could consume at most one.

Chen Mo planned to take it when he encountered a suitable opportunity.

Next, he retrieved the Undying Mysterious Skill - Golden Body Chapter.

A flood of memories surged into his mind.

The Undying Xuan Gong was divided into three chapters.

The Golden Body Chapter, the Undying Chapter, and the Immortal and Undying Chapter.

The Golden Body Chapter was further divided into Iron Body, Copper Body, Golden Body, and Sacred Body.

It was a god-tier cultivation art for training the physical body.

Damn, just what I needed.

A divine skill for taking a beating.

The steps for cultivating the Iron Body were not difficult. Chen Mo had all the required materials in his Storage Ring, but where was he supposed to find the essence blood of a magical beast at the Dou Ling level or above?

Moreover, the strength and bloodline of the essence blood's owner were closely related to the final quality of the Iron Body.

The stronger the owner and the more powerful their bloodline, the higher the quality of the Iron Body would be.

The first person to appear in Chen Mo's mind was Queen Medusa.

But obtaining her essence blood would be harder than ascending to the heavens.

No matter what, he had to give it a try.

Having made up his mind, Chen Mo got dressed and walked out of the room.

It was already night, and the moonlight flowed like water.

The moment Chen Mo stepped out of the room—

He was stunned.

He discovered that he was actually living right next to Queen Medusa's bedchamber. Her bedchamber was less than a ten-meter corridor away.

Chen Mo headed toward Queen Medusa's bedchamber in surprise.

Commander Yue Nu was even more surprised when she saw Chen Mo able to walk around.

Less than three days had passed, and such severe injuries had already healed?

What kind of medicinal bath had Her Majesty prepared for him? It was so miraculous?

And Her Majesty had personally gone to tend to him over the past few days. How strange.

"Commander Yue Nu, is Her Majesty inside?" Chen Mo asked quietly as he approached.

"It is so late. Her Majesty has already gone to sleep."

"Yue Nu, let him in."

The moment Yue Nu finished speaking, Queen Medusa's voice came from within the bedchamber.

Yue Nu was somewhat stunned. At this hour, even she was not permitted to enter, yet Her Majesty was now allowing a human inside.

Though Yue Nu was surprised, she did not dare defy the Queen. She immediately opened the bedchamber doors and let Chen Mo enter.

The first thing Chen Mo saw upon entering was the wall he had been embedded in.

Yet the wall was completely intact, with only a few faint marks.

His gaze shifted upward to the throne.

On the broad throne, Queen Medusa reclined halfway against it. Her attire was enchanting, her crown had long since been removed, and her Black Silk Stockings cascaded like a waterfall.

Perhaps because it was late and she was preparing to sleep.

Queen Medusa's current clothes were exceedingly alluring and revealing. Her fair collarbones and shoulders were exposed, the curve of a certain place was captivating, and her slender waist looked delicate enough to grasp.

Only her complexion was slightly pale.

It hasn't even been that long. Your Majesty, why do you look so weak already?

Of course, Chen Mo only thought this to himself.

Queen Medusa's long, narrow eyes blinked slightly, and her voice was as cold as ever.

"Why have you come?"

Chen Mo narrowed his eyes. Since he wanted to obtain her essence blood, he naturally could not oppose her as he had before. He needed to say something pleasant.

"Your Majesty, I came to admit my mistake!"

Upon hearing this, Queen Medusa immediately became alert, but her expression soon changed again.

Could he have learned that This Queen worked so hard to save him these past few days?

Otherwise, with his temperament, he would not admit his mistake even after This Queen beat him into that state.

Why had he suddenly changed his ways?
