Chapter 141 The Physiological Structure of the Snake-Man? [Please Subscribe]

Lu Xian and his companion did not rush to make a move. Instead, they quietly watched Queen Medusa complete the entire blessing dance. Only after the night deepened, she spread her pair of crimson battle aura wings, creating a splash of water, and swept away into the air with her wild purple snake tail, did the two of them calmly emerge from behind the large rock.

Lu Xian looked up and gazed in the direction where Queen Medusa had left, standing there in quiet contemplation.

"They're all gone, not even a shadow left. What are you still staring at? Are you really bewitched by this snake spirit?" Xiao Yan rolled his eyes and couldn't help but complain. Was this snake spirit really that attractive?

It seems... there really is...

Queen Medusa's alluring charm, like her fearsome reputation, resounded throughout the entire Gama Empire—this is beyond question.

Her previous blessing dance was so captivating that it ignited the most primal desires in people's hearts with every move she made.

"I'm so sorry, my dear sister Xun'er is my true love. I can't think of anything else and disappoint her," Xiao Yan reminded himself silently.

"I wasn't staring at it, I was just thinking about a question..." Lu Xian withdrew his gaze, lowered his head to think, and replied.

"What's the problem?" Xiao Yan asked curiously.

"Huo Huo, what do you say...?"

Lu Xian frowned and asked疑惑地问道, "What would the physiological structure of a snake-person be like?"

Xiao Yan: ? ? ?

What kind of brain circuit is that?

"Dude, I don't quite understand. What are you referring to as physiological structure?" Xiao Yan stared wide-eyed in surprise.

"Ahem! To put it bluntly, what exactly do you think is under the short skirts of female snake people?"

"Does the lower half of the body transform into a snake's body, which then becomes its tail...?"

"Or does it start from the groin and gradually transform into a snake's tail?"

"I think this is a very philosophical question!"

Lu Xian stroked his chin and pondered.

"Oh, this..."

Xiao Yan was dumbfounded. Why would you think of such a question?

Besides, I'm not an expert in handling snakes, how could I possibly know about this? Why don't you go ask Xu Xian?

"I think it starts as a tail from the waist..." Xiao Yan guessed after a moment of silence, seeing that Lu Xian was still deep in thought.

"That's what I think too!"

Lu Xian nodded in agreement, then changed the subject: "But this creates a new problem!"

"If the snake's tail starts at the waist, it means that neither male nor female snake people have a penis or buttocks. In that case, why would they bother wearing a skirt to cover their buttocks? It's just a tail, why would they need to cover it up?"

"And also... how do they mate and reproduce without Kunkun and an ass?"

Are you a walking encyclopedia of whys?

Xiao Yan's face twitched violently.

Why are you even thinking about these things?

Does this concern you?

"Brother Lu, Queen Medusa is already far away. I think instead of getting bogged down in these pointless things, shouldn't we hurry up and catch up with her?"

Xiao Yan urged him on, but Lu Xian shook his head.

"No rush. There's nowhere to hide in the desert. Let's follow her now. Even if I use my divine sense to conceal my presence, she can easily spot me with her naked eye. Just find out where the royal city is. We'll go there and pick up the scraps later. Let the bullets fly for a while longer."

In fact, Lu Xian felt that Queen Medusa had very likely discovered the two of them just now. After all, anyone would feel slightly uncomfortable if they were stared at for a long time. This is the sixth sense of intelligent life, or you could say it is a unique spiritual sense of each person.

Before Lu Xian transmigrated, when he was just an ordinary high school student, his spiritual senses were already quite sharp.

If this is the case for ordinary people, how much more so for the powerful Queen Medusa?

As for why Queen Medusa discovered the two but didn't directly attack Lu Xian and his companion, Lu Xian didn't know. Perhaps she was also wary of them.

After all, with the strength of Queen Medusa's soul power, it was impossible for her to penetrate Lu Xian's spiritual barrier...

"Huo Huo, actually in the novel, this Medusa Queen is your future woman."

Lu Xian's sudden words startled Xiao Yan.

"What the hell? Brother Lu, she chased me for over ten streets, almost across the entire desert! You're saying this fierce, crazy woman is my woman?" Xiao Yan's eyes widened in disbelief.

Lu Xian nodded, "That's indeed the case!"

"What the hell! Brother Lu, you can eat whatever you want, but you can't say whatever you want, I'm afraid Sister Xun'er will misunderstand!"

Xiao Yan waved his hands repeatedly, he dared not want this crazy woman. How could he compare to Xun'er, who was so obedient and called him "Brother Xiao Yan"?

"Brother Lu, how did I get together with her in the novel?"

Lu Xian thought for a moment and said, "The Fallen Heart Flame affected your minds, like an aphrodisiac."

Xiao Yan breathed a sigh of relief upon hearing this, saying with relief, "Then it seems I haven't betrayed my original feelings for Xun'er. To be honest, Brother Lu, don't be fooled by the nice things I said to you and Ye Hei back then. I'm a pure love advocate; the only one I've ever loved is Xun'er, and I will always strive for that goal until one day I'm worthy of her, and can proudly go to the Ancient Clan and marry her!"

Lu Xian glanced at him in surprise, then patted him hard on the shoulder. "I didn't realize you were such a romantic. You've got guts! I support you, bro!"

[Ye Fan: @Xiao Yan @Lu Xian, how are you two doing right now?]

[Xiao Yan: It's alright, things went fairly smoothly.]

[Lu Xian: What's up?]

[Ye Fan: There really is something. I estimate that my cauldron will be almost finished being refined by tomorrow afternoon. Brother Lu, the next step in the plan you gave me is to go to the Tai Xuan Sect to obtain the Nine Secrets, right?]

[Lu Xian: To be precise, it's the Humble Peak of the Tai Xuan Sect!]

[Ye Fan: This is a bit troublesome. I can't wait to go to the Northern Region. By the way, is this Nine Secrets really that powerful? If it's just average, should we just forget about it?]

[Lu Xian: The top-tier secret techniques created by the Nine Heavenly Venerables are all powerful divine abilities. Some allow you to foresee the future, some allow you to manipulate other people's magical treasures, and some can give you a tenfold increase in combat power. Are you sure you don't want to try and obtain these divine abilities?]

[Ye Fan: Holy crap? A tenfold increase in combat power? Doesn't that mean I can easily fight opponents of higher levels and defy immortality?]

[Lu Xian: That's why I wanted you to go get it! The resource acquisition plan I devised for you is definitely the most cost-effective. I didn't even tell you about some of the smaller opportunities, otherwise it would have wasted even more of your time.]

Ye Fan: Understood! It seems I absolutely must go to the Tai Xuan Sect!

[Ye Fan: By the way, Brother Lu, what are these nine secrets? They were created by the nine Heavenly Venerables, so they should be created by nine different supreme experts, right? But it sounds like a complete set of divine powers and sacred techniques?]

[Lu Xian: Which nine? Let me think... they seem to be Filial Piety, Classics, Music, Entrustment, Urgency, Clam, Moisten, Hemp, and Win. The one from the Tai Xuan Sect's Zhuo Feng is the Clam Secret, which can make someone live in a clam. Learning any one of these nine secret techniques will be enough to benefit you for a lifetime!]

Ye Fan: ?

Looking at the latest message in the group, Ye Fan's lips twitched slightly. Are these Nine Secrets really that abstract?

I'm actually living in Bengbu now!

How long has it been since Huo Huo transformed his fighting spirit into a horse?

I remember it all so clearly!

You weren't satisfied with fooling him once, so you're trying to fool me now, aren't you?

Do you really think I, Emperor Ye, am a stupid idiot like Huo Huo?

[Ye Fan: Are you sure the Nine Secrets are these nine types?]

[Lu Xian: Yes!]

[Ye Fan: Okay, okay! Do you dare to swear an oath on your Kunkun?]

[Lu Xian: Ye Hei, you don't trust me? With all these years of brotherhood, would I lie to you?]

[Ye Fan: I believe you, so do you dare to swear on your Kun Kun?]

[Lu Xian: Ye Hei, you've really disappointed me!]

[Ye Fan: So you dare to swear on Kun Kun?]

[Lu Xian: I can swear on Kun Kun, but after I swear, we will sever all ties!]

[Ye Fan: Kun Kun swears!]

[Lu Xian: Okay, I swear, actually the Nine Secrets are nine secret techniques: Lin, Bing, Dou, Zhe, Jie, Shu, Zu, Qian, and Xing. One of the Nine Secrets of the Tai Xuan Sect is the Jie Secret. After learning it, it can amplify all aspects of combat power tenfold, including physical strength, divine power, and spiritual sense.]

[Ye Fan: I fucking knew it!!!]

Lu Xian closed the chat group interface with some regret.

Xiao Yan was looking at him sideways at that moment.

"It's about time; we should head over to the Serpent People's royal city and take a look!"

Lu Xian raised his chin towards the horizon, then transformed into a streak of rainbow light and soared into the sky, with Xiao Yan following closely behind.

Although the speed of riding the rainbow was fast, the rainbow light around them was like a blazing little sun, very conspicuous and easy to spot. Not long after they flew, a huge city appeared faintly on the horizon, nestled under the bright moon.

Lu Xian and Xiao Yan exchanged a glance and tacitly landed about twenty miles away from the Snake-People's Royal City, switching to infiltrating on foot.

Amidst the monotonous yellow sand, many enormous stones began to appear. Behind these boulders stood the magnificent royal city of the Serpent People, its walls towering high, torches like long dragons atop them, and the figures of the guards on the walls could be seen from afar.

The closer they got to the Snake-Man royal city, the more Snake-Man patrol teams there were, but they weren't very strong. Lu Xian and his companion easily bypassed them, reached the vicinity of the royal city, and easily infiltrated it.

"Brother Lu, do you know the exact location?"

"Don't worry, my divine sense can easily cover the entire Serpent Clan's royal city. Queen Medusa has already begun her transformation. We've come at the right time. Stay close to me..."

Two figures moved swiftly through the darkness like ghosts, rapidly approaching a massive temple east of the Serpent People's royal city.

One could vaguely see that the energy fluctuations in the air above the depths of the temple were extremely intense, and a huge energy vortex was faintly forming.

A roar, somewhat like a lion's roar and somewhat like a tiger's howl, echoed from afar. A giant purple serpent, about ten feet long, was suspended beneath the energy vortex. The serpent's body was slender and powerful, possessing a subtle and elegant beauty.

Lu Xian and Xiao Yan paused and stared for a moment before quickening their pace.

In a few breaths, they stepped into the temple and passed through a straight stone corridor. The view ahead suddenly opened up to a clear lake with a small island in the center. The island was planted with lush bamboo forests and some flowers and plants.

Queen Medusa underwent her transformation at the heart of this island, where the energy of heaven and earth was extremely violent.

The giant purple serpent in mid-air let out a long roar, and then plunged downwards without hesitation.

Then, a piercing scream rang out, sending chills down one's spine.

"Brother Lu, do you think Queen Medusa will successfully transform?"

"I don't know. Normally, Queen Medusa shouldn't have started her transformation so early. It's probably because of you that she was influenced and made her accelerate her plan to transform with the help of the strange fire. Now, it's hard to say whether she's alive or dead..."

"My reason?" Xiao Yan asked, puzzled.

"Didn't you fight with her a few times to get the Azure Lotus Earth Core Flame? I'm afraid she's in such a hurry to avoid any unforeseen complications."

"I see……"

As they talked, the two quickly made their way through the bamboo forest path and crept to the vicinity of the island's center. They concealed themselves behind a rockery and looked toward the center of the island.

A large patch of blue flames floated there; that must be the Azure Lotus Earth Core Flame.

Inside the flames, a large purple serpent was writhing and twisting its body wildly. The scales on its body were charred black by the strange fire and twisted off. Before the crimson blood could flow, it was burned into nothingness by the terrifying temperature of the strange fire, leaving behind extremely glaring bloody marks on the purple serpent's body.

The giant snake's screams were so piercing that Xiao Yan felt a chill run down his spine. The thought of having to devour this strange fire to become stronger sent shivers down his spine.

After all, the purple serpent looked so pitiful at this moment, almost as if it were about to be roasted.

A meaty aroma wafted over.

Seeing that Xiao Yan's face was pale and somewhat unpleasant, Lu Xian patted his shoulder and said, "Don't panic. In the novel, you were so weak, yet you still managed to absorb the Green Lotus Earth Core Flame. Now your physique is far stronger than in the novel. If you really don't have confidence, it's not too late to try again after breaking through to the Divine Bridge or the Other Shore Realm."

"I know..." Xiao Yan nodded.

The two watched in silence as Queen Medusa underwent her transformation. A purple light barrier had appeared around the temple, blocking the snake-men who had been drawn by the agonizing screams.

Time passed, and I don't know how much time had gone by.

Queen Medusa's shrill and high-pitched wails gradually turned into low, mournful hisses. The light in her pupils dimmed rapidly, and in Lu Xian's perception, her aura was rapidly waning and weakening.

"Is it going to fail? Was it a premature breakthrough, without adequate preparation? Or is the decline an illusion, a final step towards annihilation, a rebirth?"

Lu Xian frowned, hesitated for a moment, and walked out from behind the artificial hill. His martial soul abstract qi quietly covered his body. After refining two strands of Xuanhuang qi, the abstract qi, which was originally like white mist, gained a golden luster, as if he was wearing a white-gold veil.

Lu Xian stepped into the azure flames. Even without using his invincible soul skill, the Azure Lotus Earth Core Flame could not harm him in the slightest. Queen Medusa's dark eyes stared quietly at the human who had suddenly appeared. She was too weak to move at all, and even if she wanted to do something, she was powerless to do so.

Lu Xian flipped his hand and pulled out a pot of divine spring water. He casually smashed the bottle and used his martial spirit to envelop the clear and bright divine spring water in his palm.

Then, he reached out and pried open Queen Medusa's enormous snake mouth, sending all the divine spring water in his hand into it. Afterward, he took out a few fist-sized pieces of source water and threw them in. After doing all this, Lu Xian turned and drifted away.

"I don't have many treasures, but I hope these will be of some help to you. As for whether you live or die, that depends on your own fate..."

The rhomboid snake eyes stared at the back of the figure that moved freely in the blue flames, and then quietly closed after a moment.

His body lay motionless within, letting the Azure Lotus Earth Core Flame burn over him. A faint, acrid smell wafted out, and his aura seemed to have sunk to freezing point.

"Did she fail to evolve?" Xiao Yan shook his head with some regret.

"No!" Lu Xian's lips curled into a smile, "It was a success!"

The sky suddenly darkened, and clusters of dark clouds, appearing from nowhere, slowly covered the horizon.

"Boom!" A thunderous roar suddenly echoed from within the dark clouds, and silver lightning bolts darted about wildly within them, like long silver snakes.

"A tribulation of lightning?" Xiao Yan exclaimed in surprise upon seeing this.

As if to confirm his words, a huge roar suddenly resounded from the dark clouds above his head. In an instant, the world was brightened, and a huge silver lightning bolt shot down from the clouds, finally piercing through the purple light curtain and smashing into the charred body of the cyan flame.

The thunder came and went quickly; before the thunderous roar in their ears had completely dissipated, the dark clouds in the sky began to recede rapidly.

at the same time.

A soft "crackling" sound rang out from the charred snake's body, and a new life force was slowly reviving.
