Upon hearing this, Su Ze's heart pounded. In truth, it was indeed true. He wasn't bragging; when he got going, Dong'er would only be begging for mercy.

In this regard, he has been absolutely adept over the years.

Even Bibi Dong, a high-level super god-level powerhouse, couldn't withstand it.

However, Su Ze shook his head and seriously rejected Qian Daoliu's suggestion, telling him righteously not to say such things again.

It's impossible for a man not to be lustful.

But Su Ze had his own ideas.

Even Dong'er, whose physical condition was so much better than Medusa's, couldn't withstand it, let alone Medusa's fragile body.

Her health deteriorated before she even gave birth to the child.

I mustn't harm others! I mustn't bring disaster upon the weak and foreign!

After leaving the temple, Medusa gave some instructions to the eight leaders but did not immediately distribute the pills. She didn't trust them, and the number of pills was limited; she couldn't possibly give each of the eight leaders one. She feared they might fight amongst themselves after she left. So she decided not to give any to any of them, keeping them all under her control.

Flying over the Tagor Desert, Su Ze bid farewell to Qian Daoliu. Qian Daoliu reluctantly returned to Mo City. How he longed to go back to the manor with Su Ze and eat a few more meals cooked by him!

Upon arriving in Mo City, Qian Daoliu quickly found Tang Chen and sat down to give him a thorough dressing-down. As they were enjoying their drinks, he recounted the story of Tang Hao and A Yin, and couldn't help but curse, "That bastard Tang Hao, he's a son of a bitch! He's a real scoundrel! I knew it a long time ago!"

Tang Chen felt something was off. He was a son of a bitch, so what was he? Was he a son of a bitch? Or a son of a bitch's father?!

After an unknown amount of time, the Spirit Hall's Order Squad flew to Mo City and found Tang Chen and his companions, who were completely drunk. They addressed Tang San, saying, "You are Tang San? You are now suspected of the crime of illegally killing your father. Please come with us! Please cooperate with the investigation! You have the right to remain silent, but anything you say will be used against you in court!"

Tang Chen, Tang Xiao, Qian Daoliu, and Tang San: "........"

On the way away from the Tagor Desert, Queen Medusa suddenly stopped. Su Ze couldn't stop in time and flew dozens of kilometers before turning back to ask, "Queen Medusa, what's wrong?"

Queen Medusa looked at a hill, seemingly preoccupied, yet also seemingly considering something.

After hesitating for three minutes, she finally bit her bright red lips and said nervously, "I have one more thing I'd like to ask for your help with. Please, you must agree!"

Medusa thought to herself, "This man is of upright character, and he even casually gave her an eighth-grade pill, showing no regard for imperial pills. He probably wouldn't harbor any ill intentions towards this treasure. Perhaps, it's not even a precious treasure in his eyes!"

But this matter was extremely important to her; it was the key to her breaking through to the Dou Zong realm. Although she now had the elixir, she couldn't just leave that rare treasure unattended!

“Deep beneath the desert here, there is a strange fire called the Azure Lotus Earth Core Fire. I have been observing it for some time, but I have been struggling to suppress it completely, so I have not made a move. I would like to ask for your help.”

"I owe you a favor. Once the mission is accomplished, you can ask me for anything."

Medusa said.

"Alright, I'll just do you a favor. As long as I can control this strange fire, I'll do my best."

Su Ze nodded, not thinking much of it; he was just helping out.

However, I've heard that this strange fire seems to be a rare and precious treasure, so it must be very valuable and powerful.

Chapter 189 The Azure Lotus Earth Core Flame? Not as good as the Manor Kitchen Flame! (Part 1)

……

Deep underground, Medusa was the first to plunge into the fiery red lava lake. Her battle aura surged from her body, completely enveloping her and forming a protective barrier around her.

Seeing Medusa completely unharmed amidst the scorching lava, seemingly relaxing as if soaking in a hot spring, Su Ze was filled with astonishment.

Beneath their feet flowed a slowly red lava, and a huge bubble slowly rose beside them, then burst open with a bang, splashing lava and making a sizzling sound.

Is molten lava something that the human body can come into contact with?

Wouldn't it be burned to ashes?

Although Su Ze did not feel an extremely hot temperature, he still had an instinctive fear of this kind of magma deep in his heart.

If he remembers correctly, magma should be like this: extremely hot, enough to annihilate all life on the surface it comes into contact with, turning it directly into carbon atoms.

Su Ze's expression made Medusa burst into laughter: it seemed she had discovered something incredible—this foolish palace lord's weakness! He was actually afraid of this level of magma?!

Although the temperature was indeed very high, she couldn't hold out for very long, so obtaining the Azure Lotus Earth Core Flame as soon as possible was the best course of action.

"Your Highness, please come down here. It's very warm down there, and it will make you feel very comfortable."

Queen Medusa swam in the lava, her agile body twisting like a water snake, her face beaming with happiness.

Only then did Su Ze, still somewhat skeptical, test the temperature of the lava. He was being far too cautious; he removed a thread from his clothes and submerged half of it in the lava. If the thread remained intact, it proved the lava was fake and not very hot; otherwise, it would be extremely hot, hot enough to scald a person!

Seeing Su Ze use the lines on his clothes for testing, Medusa touched her forehead, somewhat helplessly:

Oh no, this temple master really has an IQ problem. To withstand the temperature of magma, one must rely on the power of battle qi to insulate the magma from the surface of the body. The fabric of the clothing is flammable; in the high-temperature environment of magma, it will be destroyed instantly.

Medusa was in a real predicament.

Unexpectedly, the thread that was torn from Su Ze's body was not damaged after it entered the magma. It was as if it had been calmly soaked in warm water, becoming slightly damp but completely intact.

Queen Medusa was incredibly surprised and even secretly conducted experiments using her own clothes.

She removed the protective aura from the clothing covering her back, allowing the magma to come into contact with that part of the clothing. However, before she could even react, she was instantly engulfed by the intense heat.

The shoulder strap broke, and the clothes fell down. The snake people did not have the habit of wearing underwear. For a moment, a snow-white mountain was revealed, but fortunately, most of it was covered by red lava.

But Medusa's face was already flushed.

Moreover, she was certain that the molten lava was indeed extremely hot; it wasn't her imagination.

But Su Ze's clothes were indeed intact.

And then, with a 'plop', Su Ze jumped down without any protection.

Molten lava swirled around his clothes, seeping through the gaps and touching his skin, his every organ.

But he was completely unharmed, not even his hair was damaged, and his expression seemed perfectly natural. What he said was even more unbelievable:

"I never expected that what looked like a bright red liquid that could scald you to death was actually just a warm liquid!"

For a moment, Medusa was speechless.

She finally understood.

This guy is pretending to be weak while actually being strong!

No, that's not quite right either. He wasn't exactly pretending to be weak, because I knew his identity. The main problem was that I underestimated his strength. That's the power of the Spirit Hall Master—remaining calm even when surrounded by molten lava.

Just how good is his physical condition?

Medusa suddenly thought of an indescribable human anatomy—even that part wouldn't be damaged in molten lava? How amazing would that be?!

Thinking about this, Medusa's face grew increasingly red.

There probably aren't many men like this in the entire Dou Qi Continent, right?

Then, the two reached a tacit understanding and swam deeper into the lava.

The deeper you go, the more amazing it becomes. The liquid begins to clear, and your vision improves, so you no longer have to rely solely on your senses to move forward.

Of course, Su Ze also saw Medusa's broken shoulder strap, revealing a glimpse of spring scenery.

As a polite and shameless good man of the manor, he gentlemanly took out a set of clothes from his soul tool and gave them to Medusa to wear. It was a bright red gauze coat, which still had its unique radiance in the depths of the molten lava, and its color and beauty should not be disgraced.

With the outer veil draped over her body, Medusa felt a warmth from the bottom of her heart, as well as a beauty that stemmed from her character.

She simply couldn't believe that such a man existed in the world!

Soon, a bluish light began to appear before their eyes, and that light gradually enveloped the entire lava field.

Su Ze focused his gaze and could vaguely see a blue lotus flower standing gracefully within the blue light.

That was the Azure Lotus Earth Core Flame!

The Azure Lotus Core Flame, ranked nineteenth on the list of extraordinary flames, is born deep within the earth. It undergoes countless trials, fusions, compressions, and sculptings by the earth's fire… It takes ten years to form a spirit, a hundred years to take shape, and a thousand years to become a lotus. At its peak, its color is bluish, and a cluster of blue flames grows from the lotus's heart. This flame is called the Azure Lotus Flame, also known as the Azure Lotus Core Flame. Its power is unfathomable; in areas near volcanoes, it can even trigger volcanic eruptions, creating a destructive force in nature!

"Your Highness, this is it. I need Your Highness's help to capture it and help me absorb it."

Medusa's expression began to turn serious.

For her, the Azure Lotus Earth Core Flame was not only a breakthrough, but also a transformation!

Unlike humans, the Snake-People are born with a secret method that infuses their bodies with the soul of a serpentine beast. As they age and their strength increases, this serpentine beast, as their companion soul, gradually merges with them until they become one. After fusing with the serpentine soul, they can summon a form similar to their current one when facing powerful enemies. At that time, their strength will increase dramatically, which is the Snake-People's ultimate trump card!

The other accompanying soul within Medusa is that of a gigantic purple serpent, specifically the soul of a sixth-tier magical beast, the Purple Netherflame Serpent. This Purple Netherflame Serpent seems to possess the bloodline of an ancient beast; given enough opportunity, this bloodline could evolve into their ancient ancestor. However, the chance of this is extremely slim, practically negligible.

Medusa hoped to use this strange fire to transform her soul, and then use the power of her soul to condense a new body of a different level—an ancient beast that could rival a Dou Sheng powerhouse at its peak, known as the Seven-Colored Sky-Swallowing Python. Its distinguishing features were its seven-colored body, slightly purple pupils, fragrant body, and power that reached the heavens!

"Let's go and see if the flames you mentioned are really that hard to deal with."

Su Ze said, and began to approach the central blue light.

Medusa shook her head: "It is naturally difficult for me, but with Your Highness here, it is not a problem."

“Hey, you don’t need to call me Your Highness. It’s kind of embarrassing. They all call you Her Majesty the Queen. Is it appropriate for you to call me Your Highness? Actually, I’m just a farmer. You can call me by my name, Su Ze, or Su Nong.”

“Su Ze...then you...can also call me Sha’er.”

Medusa nodded; it had been a long time since anyone had called her that.

"Oh, okay, Sasha."

Medusa: "......."

At this moment, they had approached the Azure Lotus Core Flame, which was a huge azure lotus with azure lotus fire seeds growing on it. At the very center of the azure lotus was a strange azure flame.

This ball of azure flame is extremely spiritual. As it churns slightly, it sometimes condenses into the shape of a lotus flower, and sometimes into a small azure flame snake, which floats and coils in the lotus seat. Its gentle appearance is extremely cute.

Its reaction seemed somewhat sluggish, as if it hadn't been in contact with humans for a long time and couldn't imagine that someone would jump into the lava and dive deep to search for it.

By the time it realized what was happening, the small blue flame suddenly expanded, transforming into an extremely terrifying blue serpent. Even Xiaoqing from the Legend of the White Snake would probably be excited enough to call it "Sister!"

"Interesting, these flames can even change shape!"

Su Ze was a little curious; of course, he had encountered this before.

He still remembered the first time he encountered such a strange, shape-shifting flame. He was so frightened that he sat down on the ground, unable to recover for a long time. In the end, he extinguished it with well water from the manor. It was truly an unforgettable experience!

However, this time we can't extinguish it; we can only imprison it.

"I'll give it a try, I don't know if it will work."

Su Ze covered his palm, and a stream of pure soul power shot out, encircling the green lotus and green snake, forming a soul power shield that completely enveloped the green lotus core fire. This process was very quick and simple.

This even made Su Ze wonder why the flames didn't resist.

The Azure Lotus Earth Core Flame was on the verge of tears. "Brother, your power is so strong, how can I resist? And you even intentionally used water-attribute power, which suppresses me! Most importantly, a certain aura emanating from you makes me tremble with fear!"

"That simple?"
