Fighting Soul Clan Demoness

Chapter 197: The body is fragrant
Seeing the little snake suddenly jump out, Xiao Yan couldn't help but be startled. He subconsciously grabbed its tail and watched its movements.

The little snake was exquisitely beautiful. After shedding its dead air, its small pink body was bathed in a rainbow of colors. Its eyes flickered, and it had a childish, fierce expression. Far from appearing ferocious, it was actually quite adorable.

"This is... Queen Medusa?!"

Xiao Yan stared at the little snake in front of him and said in disbelief.

"Fizz!"

The little snake seemed to be a little afraid of the lion head on Xiao Yan's Dou Qi armor. Its lavender pupils narrowed slightly, and its whole body seemed to be full of hair, and it kept struggling in Xiao Yan's palm.

However, Xiao Yan was afraid that he had no intention of appreciating this cuteness at all.

"Ruoruo, why did you bring this disaster with you?"

Xiao Yan thought the little snake was hostile to him, so he quickly grabbed its tail and shook it hard in the air.

The palm's great force made the little snake, which had just regained consciousness, dizzy and dazed. It even wailed and drooped its head limply, like an upside-down chopstick!
Hun Ruoruo adjusted her clothes without leaving any trace, and looked at the rather miserable little snake. She was extremely surprised for a moment, as if she had witnessed something extraordinary.
"Oh my god, Third Young Master, how could you treat it like this? This little snake is so cute, how could you be so cruel?"

"Cute? Queen Medusa is not exactly cute."

"Even if she's not cute, she's still a stunning beauty. Third Young Master Ruoruo can keep it a secret for you. Even if you secretly have a crush on this Snake Queen, I won't tell Sister Xun'er."

"Wha, what?"

Xiao Yan's body trembled, and his heart was struck by thunder. He never expected that Ruoruo still stubbornly believed that he had some special fetish for snake girls. He was so depressed that he could hardly speak.

"Hmph, Queen Medusa is ruthless. She disguises herself as this little snake to appear harmless, but who knows what else she might have up her sleeve! This woman can even fool Koga. I'm worried about her!"

Xiao Yan's eyes were fierce, and he said with lingering fear that it was true that he didn't like Medusa and was also afraid of her ruthless methods. There was absolutely no possibility of him leaving the little snake behind.

Hun Ruoruo was stunned, her face filled with disbelief. Even after she'd said so much, this guy was still so devoted to Sister Xun'er. Wasn't his mindset too strong? Could it be that this was the result of her own training?
"Third Young Master, I really don't know how to describe your strong will, but I believe any first-grade alchemist can see that this little snake's soul is not Queen Medusa herself. Do you think she knows how to disguise herself better than me?"

"That being said, this little snake is so hostile to me. It's obviously because I stole its treasure. I'm worried!"

"Stupid young master, how come you still can't see it? The reason the little snake is hostile to you is entirely because the aura of the Amethyst Winged Lion King on your armor is too powerful. As a fellow demon beast, of course they will be afraid."

After hearing Hun Ruoruo's words, Xiao Yan stopped his actions half-believingly, and with a slight thought, the Dou Qi armor instantly turned into Dou Qi and was absorbed into the cyclone again.

Looking again, the little snake's eyes, which were originally filled with hostility, turned into confusion, as if asking why the terrifying beast suddenly disappeared.

".Could it be that it was awakened by the influence of the Lion King's aura?"

Hun Ruoruo was quite surprised by Xiao Yan's innocence and stupidity that came from nowhere. She was both angry and amused. She almost didn't want to tease his emotions anymore.
"When the Snake People are born, they usually use secret methods to inject a natal snake spirit into their bodies, allowing them to benefit from each other and share both prosperity and adversity."

"Queen Medusa's evolution completely shed her snake-human identity, transforming her into a pure demon beast. Naturally, this extra soul awakened as a result."

"Two souls in one body, this term should be familiar to the Third Young Master, right?"

Hun Ruoruo's explanation was easy to understand, and it didn't take long for Xiao Yan to fully understand Queen Medusa's current situation. His originally slightly wary and murderous heart gradually calmed down a bit.

He looked at the rather frail little snake in his palm and gently poked its head. The snake narrowed its eyes in comfort, its previous hostility seemingly gone. "This little fellow is quite forgiving."

Knowing that the other party was not the snake beauty, Xiao Yan naturally no longer needed to be overly cautious. He was indeed afraid that Ruoruo would misunderstand him, but he was not that sensitive.

Rather, it was a miracle that he, a rather careless person, could have such a delicate mind.

Little Doctor Fairy taught well.

Soon, under Hun Ruoruo's repeated requests, Xiao Yan accepted the task of taming the little snake with resignedness. He took out the companion purple crystal source he had previously collected from the Demon Beast Mountains and fed it to the undeveloped young creature.

Looking at the little snake eating happily in his palm, Xiao Yan smacked his lips in pain.

Even he couldn't bear to eat more of this companion amethyst source, but this little kid finished half a bottle in just two gulps. If he hadn't known it was eating so much because it was just a newborn, he would have swatted it away with a ruler.
After licking the purple crystal source clean, the little snake burped in an ungraceful manner, and spewed out a ball of purple flame, which was extremely spiritual.

"Fizz!"

Looking at the little snake staring at the jade bottle in his hand with expectation, Xiao Yan's mouth twitched. He put the jade bottle back into the ring without any mercy. Ignoring the little snake's aggrieved expression, he turned to look at the girl who had closed her eyes at some point.

"Ruoruo, it should be almost done, right?"

"Two souls, this is more difficult than expected."

Hun Ruoruo opened her eyes, and a deep purple light flashed in the depths of her pupils.
"The difference in strength between Medusa's soul and this little snake's soul is too great. Forcibly planting a soul seal to control them would probably damage their consciousness, turning them into confused and dazed remnants."

"What should I do?"

"Wait for me to recover my strength first. I don't even have much fighting spirit left now. Even if I have a trick, I can't use it~"

As Hun Ruoruo spoke, her figure leisurely walked towards the outside of the cave.

Xiao Yan was immediately surprised and said: "Ruoruo means——"

"Shimo City, right? I'm unfamiliar with the place, so Third Young Master, please lead the way."

Looking at the girl's figure walking further and further away, Xiao Yan grinned, stood up, and tried to catch up with the girl.

"I almost forgot about this little brat. Let me see, the ring can't hold living things, so let it stay in my arms for a while."

He grabbed the confused little snake and brought it to his chest. Just as he was about to stuff it in, he suddenly smelled an extremely tempting sweet scent.

It was like the sweet fragrance on Ruoruo's body, but even stronger, as if mixed with some extremely attractive special drug, making Xiao Yan couldn't help but move his nose and sniff a few times.

"Well, Teacher said that one of the characteristics of the Seven-Colored Sky-Swallowing Python is that it exudes fragrance. This fragrance is indeed well-deserved. But why does it feel a bit similar to the smell of Ruoruo?"

Shaking his head, Xiao Yan didn't think he was a pervert, so it was impossible for him to catch a small snake and keep sniffing it. He stuffed it into his arms, then used his purple cloud wings to fly out of the cave quickly.

However, it does smell quite fragrant.
