The Snake People Race's experts confronted the outsiders, and the two sides began to negotiate.
The visitors' intentions were obvious: they wanted to see Queen Medusa.
If Queen Medusa refused to come out and meet them, the visitors would attack and destroy the Snake People Race's great city.
At this moment, the two sides' strength was clearly unequal.
The visitors had a Black-robed Man among them. Though his appearance could not be seen clearly, the aura he gave off was intimidating.
The Snake People Race's experts all knew that this mysterious Black-robed Man was the strongest.
Just as Gu He's group was preparing to make a move, Queen Medusa finally appeared before everyone.
Her breathtakingly beautiful, seductive face appeared before the crowd. Her long black hair cascaded casually from her fragrant shoulders, while her languid demeanor carried a fatal allure for men.
Beneath her noble and elegant purple brocade robe was a delicate, voluptuous body. A section of purple snake tail swayed gently, brimming with wild, seductive charm.
The sight of such a peerless beauty left mouths dry and tongues parched.
Queen Medusa's appearance stirred the hearts of every man present.
Gu He and the experts beside him all revealed looks of amazement, inwardly marveling at Queen Medusa's peerless beauty.
Upon seeing Queen Medusa appear, the Snake People Race's experts bowed respectfully.
Mobas, the chief of the Black Snake Tribe, looked at Queen Medusa with intoxication and deep admiration in his eyes.
"Are you looking for me?" Queen Medusa lowered her head slightly, her bewitching eyes fixed on Gu He.
Every glance and smile of hers exuded charm, an irresistible temptation.
Gu He took a light breath, suppressing his emotions. He raised his head and looked at Queen Medusa. "Your Majesty Queen Medusa, it is an honor to meet you. I am Gu He of the Jia Ma Empire."
Upon learning that the visitor was Pill King Gu He of the Jia Ma Empire, Queen Medusa showed no surprise. Instead, she revealed a faint smile.
The two then held a conversation.
The reason Pill King Gu He had come to the Snake People Race's tribe this time was mainly for a type of Heavenly Flames.
As long as Queen Medusa handed over the Heavenly Flames, Gu He could offer two sixth-grade Dou Ling Pills and one Form Transformation Pill in exchange.
Seeing Gu He make such a generous offer, the Snake People Race's experts were all shocked.
Everyone knew the effects of a sixth-grade Dou Ling Pill. It could raise a Dou Wang expert's strength by one star.
A seventh-grade Form Transformation Pill was enough to drive Dou Emperor-level magical beasts mad.
The Form Transformation Pill held tremendous appeal for the Snake People Race.
Yet Queen Medusa remained unmoved and rejected Gu He's request.
Since Queen Medusa was unwilling to exchange the Heavenly Flames, Gu He had no choice but to return empty-handed.
He knew Queen Medusa's notorious reputation. Even if all of them joined forces, they would never be a match for the Snake People Race's experts.
At that moment, the Black-robed Man, who had remained silent all this time, suddenly exposed Queen Medusa's identity and also knew why she refused to hand over the Heavenly Flames.
"I not only know that you need the Heavenly Flames to complete your evolution, but I also know that you are merely an energy body containing a trace of Queen Medusa's consciousness. I imagine the real Queen Medusa is preparing for her evolution somewhere, isn't she?"
The Black-robed Man spoke calmly, his tone full of confidence.
His words shocked everyone present.
The Snake People Race's experts' expressions changed drastically as they grew tense.
Since it could no longer be concealed, a bloody battle was bound to follow.
The Black-robed Man lifted his foot slightly and stepped down softly, his figure vanishing from where he stood in an instant.
Queen Medusa's expression changed at the sight.
Just as she was about to move, a shadow appeared behind her. A jade-white palm reached out and landed on her back.
"How dare you!"
The Snake People Race's experts flew into a rage and rushed forward, only to be stopped by the experts beside Gu He.
In the end, Queen Medusa's energy body vanished from the spot.
Just as a battle between both sides was about to erupt, a figure shot over like lightning.
Sensing the sudden, powerful aura, the Black-robed Man's expression changed. He immediately turned and stared in the newcomer's direction.
Before long, everyone sensed that formidable aura drawing near.
The newcomer was wrapped from head to toe in silver robes, his powerful aura bursting forth without restraint.
No one present had expected a mysterious expert to suddenly appear.
The Snake People Race initially thought he was Gu He's helper, and they immediately felt tremendous pressure.
Having one Dou Emperor expert was already enough pressure.
Now that another had appeared, things had gone from bad to worse.
"What are you doing here in the Snake People Race?" Chen Xuan hovered before the Snake People Race's experts and questioned Gu He's group.
Chen Xuan had actually arrived some time ago.
When he spotted Gu He from afar, he hid nearby and did not reveal himself easily.
Because he had seen Gu He at the Misty Cloud Sect.
Gu He had close ties with the Misty Cloud Sect.
That was why Chen Xuan had not appeared in his true form.
"Who are you, sir?" Gu He asked warily.
Upon discovering that the suddenly appearing Dou Emperor expert had come to aid the Snake People Race, Gu He was startled, and the pressure on him increased sharply.
"Hmph. Queen Medusa is my wife. Who do you think I am?" Chen Xuan snorted.
As he spoke, his aura as an Eight-star Dou Huang erupted without reservation, intimidating the entire area.
When the Black-robed Man discovered that the Silver-robed Man possessed the strength of an Eight-star Dou Huang, her brows furrowed slightly.
She had never expected Medusa to have an Eight-star Dou Huang helping her.
And this helper even claimed to be Queen Medusa's man.
It was truly unbelievable.
Queen Medusa, who had always been cold and arrogant, actually had a man. No one had seen that coming.
"Commander Yue Mei, what is going on?" Mobas asked with a face full of confusion. "When did Her Majesty gain a man?"
As one of the Snake People Race's eight great chiefs, Mobas had never heard that the queen had a man she liked.
Now, a Silver-robed Man had suddenly appeared and claimed to be the queen's man, leaving Mobas somewhat bewildered.
"His aura feels somewhat familiar. Could it be...?" Yue Mei looked astonished.
She seemed to have thought of a possibility.
"Could it be what?" Mobas hurriedly asked.
"Mobas, do you remember the expert who defeated Her Majesty two years ago?" Yue Mei said solemnly. "I think he is that person from two years ago."
Hearing this, Mobas finally remembered.
As he looked at the Silver-robed Man, Mobas's expression turned ugly, and he felt deeply resistant.
But now, he did not dare offend the Silver-robed Man.
"You barged into my wife's territory. You've got some nerve," Chen Xuan said, his gaze fixed on Gu He's group, his tone icy. "If you don't leave compensation behind, none of you will leave easily."
Gu He, an alchemist, was a fat sheep. How could Chen Xuan let him go so easily?
He was determined to carve out a hefty piece of flesh from Gu He.
"You alone wish to keep us here? Aren't you being far too arrogant?" the Black-robed Man said.
"Hm?" Chen Xuan froze when he heard the Black-robed Man's clear voice.
This woman's voice sounded somewhat familiar. Had he met her somewhere before?
Suddenly, Chen Xuan thought of a possibility. The Black-robed Man before him was likely the Sect Master of the Misty Cloud Sect.
