The night was like thick ink, so deep it could not be dissolved.

Inside a secluded cave, the dim yellow flames swayed slightly as a cool breeze drifted in.

Chen Mo did not even dare take a breath. Without resting, he removed the white mask from Queen Medusa's face and the black robe draped over her body.

Her stunning red dress and bewitchingly beautiful face were revealed before Chen Mo once more.

His gaze swept over that alluring face before slowly moving downward, his brows knitting slightly. Below her left shoulder was a horrifying bloody hole, and the flowing blood had stained even that soft curve red.

Queen Medusa leaned against the cave wall, her delicate brows faintly furrowed, a trace of pain lingering on her face. This appearance made the already noble woman seem even more coldly beautiful and pitifully moving.

Queen Medusa had long grown accustomed to Chen Mo's gaze. She merely said coldly, "Mind yourself."

Chen Mo nodded and took out seven or eight small jade bottles and a roll of bandages from his Storage Ring. He tore off a strip of bandage, soaked it with medicine, and gently began wiping her fragrant shoulder.

Seeing Chen Mo's earnest expression, an inexplicable trace of shyness arose in Queen Medusa's heart, though her face remained as cold as ever.

After wiping away all the bloodstains from her shoulder, Chen Mo hesitated briefly. Then, he gently lifted the red dress covering her ample chest a little and wiped at that curve as well.

Queen Medusa's body stiffened, her eyes turning icy as she clenched her Silver Teeth. If Chen Mo had not moved away so quickly, she likely would have been unable to resist slapping him away.

That place was not injured at all.

Chen Mo had wiped there solely because he had a slight obsessive-compulsive streak. It was like seeing a few black specks in a bucket of pristine white paint—one could not help wanting to pick them out.

On skin as smooth as mutton-fat jade, that was the only place where blood remained. Naturally, Chen Mo could not resist wiping it clean.

After wiping away the blood, Chen Mo picked up another small jade bottle and poured its medicinal powder onto the wound beneath her shoulder, then gently spread it with his fingers.

This was an external wound medicine powder he had refined according to the Medicine Saint Pill Codex. It could effectively promote wound healing.

After applying the powder, Chen Mo opened another jade bottle, which contained a pale yellow liquid.

Chen Mo poured it onto his fingers, then gently rubbed it into the wound where he had applied the medicine powder.

Once he was done, Chen Mo poured out a Recovery Pill from another medicine bottle and, without further explanation, stuffed it into Queen Medusa's mouth.

His finger brushed against Queen Medusa's rosy lips.

Queen Medusa's expression turned cold, and she felt both embarrassed and annoyed. How many times has this human treated This Queen like this?

But why did he have so many strange things?

Queen Medusa could not help asking, "What are all these jade bottles for?"

Chen Mo glanced up at her. "This bottle contains Bone Growth Powder, which promotes bone growth. This one is Wound Medicine, which speeds up wound healing. This one is Skin Dew, which prevents wounds from leaving scars."

"This one reduces swelling, and this one improves blood circulation."

"I originally refined all of these for myself. I never expected Her Majesty the Queen to have use for them too."

Hearing this, Queen Medusa's face suddenly reddened as she recalled how Chen Mo had been beaten black and blue by her every day recently.

Apologize.

It was impossible for Queen Medusa to apologize. She simply turned her head away and said nothing more.

As Chen Mo wrapped another layer of bandage around Queen Medusa's wound, he said, "Earlier, you—"

"This Queen was afraid you would die and my younger sister would be heartbroken when she came out of seclusion." As if she knew what Chen Mo was going to say, Queen Medusa interrupted him coldly.

At the end, she added, "Do not misunderstand."

Looking at Queen Medusa, who clearly did not mean what she said, Chen Mo suddenly realized that she was a tiny bit adorable too.

Chen Mo smiled faintly and said nothing.

The wound looked serious, but for Queen Medusa, a Dou Emperor, it was nothing major.

After tending to the wound, Chen Mo shamelessly pressed close to Queen Medusa's soft body and sat shoulder to shoulder with her. "Your Majesty, what was that Bloodline Skill you mentioned earlier?"

Queen Medusa glanced at Chen Mo, whose shoulder was pressed against her right shoulder. Her delicate brows furrowed slightly as she said, "Some magical beasts with particularly powerful bloodlines can inherit a talent skill after their bloodline awakens.

"It is said that the Dark Gold Magic Tiger possesses a trace of the Divine Beast White Tiger's bloodline. I did not expect it to be true. Not only that, but that Tiger King had awakened it. After a magical beast with a Bloodline Skill dies, if someone touches its magic core, the Bloodline Skill will be triggered. It is essentially meant to drag its enemy down with it."

"The Divine Beast White Tiger's bloodline."

Chen Mo was stunned. Did that not mean he had struck it rich?

"Thank you, Your Majesty." No matter what, Chen Mo still had to thank Queen Medusa.

If Queen Medusa had not pushed him away, who knew what would have happened if that attack had hit him.

"As long as you anger This Queen less, that will be the greatest thanks." Medusa's red lips curled slightly as she spoke in an unusually gentle tone.

"Certainly."

Chen Mo smiled. "But I have to say, Your Majesty, your waist really is slender."

Chen Mo wore an expression of endless reminiscence.

Bang!

A fist as large as a sandbag swiftly smashed into Chen Mo's face.

Chen Mo's vision went dark, and he fainted.

"Sure enough, This Queen cannot show you even the slightest kindness."

Ding, Favorability +1. Obtained 2 Favorability Coins.

"Ah..."

This woman really hit hard.

When Chen Mo woke up, it was already dawn.

Chen Mo subconsciously touched his nose, only to feel a sharp pain.

There were still traces of blood in his nostrils.

"Ah, damn it."

Chen Mo felt that he needed to have a proper talk with Queen Medusa and tell her not to hit his face next time.

Then he realized something was wrong.

Looking down, Chen Mo saw Queen Medusa lying on top of him, sleeping with her hands beneath her head.

His body had become her pillow.

Chen Mo was a little annoyed.

His nerve rose again. Seeing that Queen Medusa had yet to wake, Chen Mo gently helped her sit up. The noble crown atop her head quietly slipped off, and Chen Mo caught it in one swift motion.

At that moment, Queen Medusa seemed to have lost some of her regal grandeur and gained a womanly languor. Especially those long eyelashes, which trembled gently, making Chen Mo unable to resist admiring her.

Looking at those vivid red lips, Chen Mo could no longer restrain himself. As if possessed, he actually kissed her.

The instant their lips touched, Chen Mo finally understood the feeling of dying beneath a peony flower and still being romantic even as a ghost.

Chen Mo: Tower, tower, Chen Mo requesting permission for takeoff.

Tower: Tower received. Chen Mo, you do not have a license, so what the hell are you flying for?

Boom!

At that very moment, Queen Medusa woke up. Seeing this scene, she found it utterly unbelievable, so she immediately sent a palm strike flying.

Chen Mo: Tower, tower, Chen Mo is airborne!
