31: Get the strange fire and tease Queen Medusa

Chapter 31: Obtaining the Exotic Flame, Teasing Queen Medusa

In the Tagor Desert, two figures sped through, their powerful aura causing all the surrounding magical beasts to prostrate themselves, trembling.

The sun was directly overhead; it was already noon.

Soul Cang looked at Queen Medusa, who had stopped ahead, transformed into her half-human, half-snake form, and smiled faintly: “You’re suppressing the Azure Lotus Core Flame while also resisting my attacks. If I’m not mistaken, you’ve reached your limit now, haven’t you?”

“So what?” Queen Medusa scoffed coldly, no trace of panic on her face, as she calmly glanced at the azure flame suspended beside her.

The flame was covered by a layer of seven-colored glow, and no matter how the flame inside shook or expanded, it could not break through.

Soul Cang extended his hand: “Give me the Azure Lotus Core Flame!”

“Heh heh, daring to snatch something from this Queen in the Tagor Desert, you’re the first I’ve ever encountered!” Queen Medusa’s violet eyes scrutinized Soul Cang. “I’m quite curious, who are you? How did you know the Azure Lotus Core Flame’s location?”

The Snake-People Tribe, as the largest group in the Tagor Desert, was not only strong but also formidable in other aspects.

At least for so many years, Medusa had never heard of any family producing such a gifted junior.

Soul Cang said indifferently: “That has nothing to do with you.”

“Quite the tough talker… However, this Queen likes tough talkers. Later, this Queen has plenty of ways to make you speak.” Queen Medusa flicked her snake tongue, not at all like someone cornered, but more like a hunter sizing up her prey.

Soul Cang’s gaze swept left and right, then he said: “In my impression, Queen Medusa isn’t a talkative person. If I’m not mistaken, you’re stalling for time, aren’t you?”

Queen Medusa’s expression changed slightly, then as if sensing something, her lips curved upwards: “You saw through it, but unfortunately, you realized it a bit late.”

As soon as she finished speaking, several streaks of light flashed from a distance, rushing directly towards them.

Those streaks of light were indeed Snake-People Tribe powerhouses with Dou Qi wings.

A few breaths later, these people arrived nearby.

“Your Majesty, how are you? Are you alright?” The speaker was a figure with a graceful and delicate physique.

“This Queen is fine, Hua She'er. You and Yue Mei, along with the others, work together to capture that fellow. He’s been chasing this Queen all the way, and his Dou Qi is almost depleted.” Queen Medusa instructed.

“Yes, Your Majesty.”

Hua She'er, along with the patriarchs of the eight Snake-People Tribe clans, respectfully accepted the order, then looked with chilling eyes at Soul Cang not far away.

“What a handsome young man…” After clearly seeing Soul Cang’s face, a female Snake-Person couldn’t help but lick her lips. She was dressed very revealingly, with most of her beautiful body exposed.

Facing Soul Cang’s gaze, she not only felt no shyness but even preened and teased him.

“That’s enough, Yue Mei, stop being so flirtatious. He’s a Dou Emperor, be careful not to capsize in a ditch and get killed.” A burly man with snake-shaped tattoos covering his hands frowned.

The Snake-People Tribe powerhouses quickly formed a circle, surrounding Soul Cang.

“Aren’t you afraid?” Seeing no panic on Soul Cang’s face, Queen Medusa was stunned for a moment and couldn’t help but ask.

“Afraid?” Soul Cang repeated, a cold smile playing on his lips. “Actually, from the moment you started fleeing deeper into the desert, I saw through your plan.”

“Then why didn’t you stop me?” Queen Medusa was very surprised. As fellow Dou Emperor powerhouses, she could feel that he wasn’t going all out.

Otherwise, in her injured state, she would never have been able to escape here and wait for the Snake-People Tribe’s powerhouses to come to her aid.

Stop her? Of course, he could, but Queen Medusa would definitely be severely injured, and given her emphasis on the exotic flame, there might even be a possibility of forced evolution.

In that case, if she wasn't careful, this beautiful woman, who possessed both charm and a queenly aura, might prematurely perish.

Soul Cang thought to himself, he was a complete older-sister-type enthusiast, how could he bear to do that?

So, after realizing Queen Medusa’s intentions, he simply played along with her plan.

Although it wasn’t impossible to have Soul Xiaoqiang appear in Shi Mo City, the news of a mysterious Dou Zong appearing would definitely attract the attention of the Gama Empire’s royal family.

Soul Cang didn’t want to cause trouble; he just wanted to quietly grow stronger, so he decided to follow her all the way into the depths of the desert.

Regarding Queen Medusa’s question, he thought for a moment and smiled: “I’ll tell you that answer later.”

“Playing mysterious.” Queen Medusa rolled her eyes at him. “Move, bring him back to me. I want to see what this guy is up to!”

However, after she gave the order, she saw that all her subordinates remained motionless, instead looking behind her with expressions of horror.

What’s wrong? Queen Medusa’s heart sank, feeling a little uneasy, and slowly turned around. A figure appeared in her line of sight, looking very ordinary, no different from a normal person.

But when Queen Medusa realized that the other party was effortlessly standing in the void without any support, her triangular pupils instantly shrunk to pinprick size.

“Dou Zong?!” Queen Medusa exclaimed in shock, turning her head in disbelief to look at Soul Cang, who was slowly approaching. “What kind of force is behind you? You’re not from the Gama Empire!”

This work is organized and uploaded by ~ ~

Soul Cang smiled faintly: “What kind of trashy place is the Gama Empire to produce someone like me?”

At this moment, Queen Medusa saw Soul Cang reach out and take the Azure Lotus Core Flame, and she shrieked loudly: “Bastard, give the exotic flame back to this Queen! That’s what I guarded for ten years to get! Don’t take it! Put it down!”

The exotic flame concerned her evolution, whether she could break through the shackles of her race.

Therefore, Queen Medusa no longer cared about her queenly image and started cursing loudly.

There was nothing she could do; her body was currently confined by space, and she had no ability to resist.

The watershed between a Dou Zong and a Dou Emperor was not something that could be imagined by a mere one-word difference.

“Haha…” Looking at the exasperated Queen Medusa, Soul Cang was not angered by her curses; instead, he laughed, and even reached out to stroke Queen Medusa’s cheek.

She was being teased? Queen Medusa felt the warmth of a stranger’s body on her cheek and simply froze in place.

Even the other powerhouses of the Snake-People Tribe were stunned at this moment.

Her Majesty the Queen was being teased by a human male?

Yue Mei swallowed hard. Luckily, she hadn't said anything reckless just now, otherwise, if that man truly became the Queen's exclusive property in the future, her position as patriarch would definitely be lost.

And male Snake-People like Mo Bas, their eyes were practically spitting fire. Her Majesty the Queen, who was respected by her clansmen and was high above them, actually let another man touch her face??

Ignoring Queen Medusa’s murderous gaze, Soul Cang smiled slightly: “I know you want to use the exotic flame to evolve. Don’t worry, after I’m done with it, I’ll come to help you. Just wait for me at home, obediently.”

He… he actually knew her purpose?! Queen Medusa’s eyes instantly filled with terror and shock. She had never revealed this plan to anyone.

How could he possibly know?

Could he read her mind??

Queen Medusa’s heart was in a panic. Seeing Soul Cang about to leave, she subconsciously asked: “Why do you want to help me?”

“Because I’ll need your help with something in the future.” Soul Cang didn’t look back. After saying that, he and Soul Xiaoqiang left directly.
