Traveling through Uncle Xiao Yan, I got the Erlang Shen template

Chapter 44: Joining forces to act
"Your Majesty has misunderstood. Gu He came here with no ill intentions. He simply wanted to make a deal with Your Majesty!"

Gu He, dressed in a long robe, spoke in an elegant manner, but unfortunately, the snake people had the blood of magical beasts and did not buy into this. Instead, they preferred Yang Chen's domineering and unquestionable arrogance.

Queen Medusa just chuckled, and seemed to look at Gu He and Yan Shi and Feng Li beside him unintentionally. At the same time, Yue Mei, Yan Ci, Mobas and other snake tribe leaders also surrounded them.

"Really? The Serpent Clan's Royal City is our Serpent Clan's Holy City. Master Gu He brought so many Dou Wang powerhouses and barged right in, yet claimed he had no ill intentions. This is truly unconvincing!"

Gu He was about to open his mouth to explain, but he saw Yan Shi and Feng Li both came over to him at the same time and stood close to him, which made Gu He's mouth twitch.

Facing the siege of the eight leaders of the snake people, Gu He wanted to say that there was no need to be afraid, but he did not say it in the end. Otherwise, he was really afraid of angering Queen Medusa, and then she would draw her sword without saying a word. Her Majesty the Queen was very moody.

"There might be some misunderstanding here. Gu He just noticed that Her Majesty was fighting with someone, so he rushed here quickly. As for these people, they were asked to protect me for a while. After all, the Tagor Desert has a bad reputation."

Gu He had no choice but to explain that no matter what, they could not fall out with the snake people. Otherwise, Queen Medusa might not kill him, but Yun Leng and the others would surely die. By then, the Yunlan Sect would probably be completely destroyed, and Yun Yun would hate him to death.

Yang Chen simply crossed his arms across his chest, quietly watching Gu He's performance while cooperating with Queen Medusa. No, it should be said that the entire scene was personally arranged by Director Yang Chen.

As for why they didn't kill Yun Leng even though they had captured him, firstly, killing Yun Leng now would only completely break off relations with the Yunlan Sect. Yang Chen didn't care about Yun Yun's situation, but with such a big change happening, Yun Shan would definitely come out.

For now, Yang Chen doesn't want to rush to face his opponent Yunshan. Although he has a way to kill Yunshan, the price is a bit high. Moreover, once Yunshan dies, the Soul Palace will definitely come after him.

As for the Soul Palace, Yang Chen did not want to come into contact with them so soon. The Yunlan Sect did not know his secret, but the Soul Palace would definitely know it. At that time, the situation would be out of his control.

Secondly, although Yun Leng will not be killed, he can be used to do something to maximize his value.

He has long passed the days of youthful impulsiveness. Now he knows how to weigh the pros and cons, and no longer seeks momentary pleasure.

"Haha, so, Master Gu He also came here for this strange fire?"

Queen Medusa curled the corners of her mouth slowly, without hiding anything. With a wave of her jade hand, a delicate and small green fire lotus appeared at her fingertips, blooming softly.

The moment Gu He saw the green fire lotus, his eyes widened and even his breathing became heavy. He spoke in a deep voice.

"This is the nineteenth-ranked Azure Lotus Earth Core Fire!"

After taking several deep breaths, Gu He finally calmed down the excitement and surprise in his heart. Although Gu He was certain that there must be strange fire here after sensing Yang Chen's breath, he could not be sure without seeing the strange fire.

And now, it has been confirmed that the snake people actually have a strange fire in their hands.

"Your Majesty, please name a price. As long as I can afford it, I will never bargain!"

Gu He glanced at Yang Chen as he spoke, as if to show off his financial resources. Yang Chen only chuckled at this, but remained silent. He crossed his arms, like a gambler who had failed in a negotiation but was unwilling to leave. "Oh? Master Gu He, are you serious?"

Queen Medusa's lips suddenly curled up into a smile. She subconsciously glanced at Yang Chen, a hint of tenderness flashing in her eyes. This might be the gift prepared for her by this hard-mouthed but soft-hearted guy.

"Everyone in the Jiama Empire knows that Master Guhe is very wealthy. Since that's the case, I won't be polite to him. Master Guhe wants this Azure Lotus Earth Core Fire. All he needs is a seventh-grade Transformation Pill, six Sect Breaking Pills, four Imperial Pills, and eight Fighting Spirit Pills. In addition, he needs to agree to help me refine a seventh-grade medicinal pill."

"hiss!!"

After hearing Queen Medusa's offer, Feng Li and Yan Shi both subconsciously took a breath of cold air, and Yan Shi couldn't help but say.

"Oh my god! I've only ever heard of lions eating big mouths. How come this snake's appetite is even bigger than a lion's?"

"Roar! Human, do you want to die?"

A low growl frightened Yan Shi so much that he turned around and met the huge animal eyes of the Amethyst Winged Lion King. His heart skipped a beat and he smiled awkwardly.

"Don't dare, don't dare!"

"Master Furukawa, how is it?"

Facing Queen Medusa's questioning, Gu He's mouth twitched. What Yan Shi said was exactly what he wanted to say. Among this pile of pills, all were sixth-grade pills that were extremely difficult to refine, and the transformation pill was even a seventh-grade pill.

However, to be honest, exchanging these pills for a strange fire doesn't seem to be very expensive. After all, strange fire has infinite power and is of great help to alchemists. More importantly, strange fire is something that can be said to be in short supply.

"Your Majesty, I'm sorry I can't match your price. However, I'm willing to offer one Transformation Pill, four Fighting Spirit Pills, and help you refine a seventh-grade pill in exchange for the Strange Fire in your hand."

"Heh, Elder Gu He has a good plan. No wonder he can become the Pill King!"

Before Queen Medusa could speak, Yang Chen couldn't help but sneer at the side, looking like a gambler who hadn't succeeded himself but loved to laugh at others.

Queen Medusa glanced at the drama queen with her beautiful eyes, and the smile on her lips deepened a little, and she chuckled and said.

"Master Gu He has heard this too. Your price is far too low. Okay, both of you, please return. This is the territory of our Serpent People. If you have any grudges, it's best to go elsewhere. Of course, you can fight here. You are both high-level alchemists with deep pockets. Just give us some pills as compensation."

As she spoke, Queen Medusa turned around and prepared to fall into the Serpent Clan's royal city. Looking at Queen Medusa's back, Gu He suddenly became anxious.

If they wait until Queen Medusa leaves, none of them will be able to escape. Queen Medusa will not kill Gu He, but Yang Chen may not be so sure. Others are also high-level alchemists and are not afraid of his identity.
