Fighting Against the Odds: I Am the Right Path

"Queen Medusa, you are now a Dou Zong, why do you have to make things difficult for the younger generation?"

"She asked for it."

Queen Medusa snorted coldly, and Jia Xingtian quickly stepped forward to stand between Queen Medusa and Yunshan, trying to dissuade them.

"Hey hey hey! We are all family now, don't make a big fuss over such a small matter!!!"

Jia Xingtian was already sweating profusely at this time. He had finally solved the problems of the Snake People and the Yunlan Sect. If the two started fighting again, all his previous efforts would be in vain!

"Queen Medusa, the priority now should be the reconciliation between the Gama Empire and the Snake People. As for your personal affairs, we will deal with them later."

"My private affairs are the public affairs of the Snake People."

Before Jia Xingtian could finish his words, he was coldly interrupted by Queen Medusa.

And there is indeed nothing wrong with what he said.

As the queen of the snake people, isn’t Medusa’s marriage a big event for the snake people?

Jia Xingtian was really having a headache at this time. He wanted to use public and private means to ask Queen Medusa to temporarily ignore this matter, but he did not expect Queen Medusa's attitude to be so resolute.

Isn’t Xiao Yan’s charm a little too great?

Then Jia Xingtian said in a serious voice.

"Queen Medusa, Nalan Yanran, who is engaged to Xiao Yan, is the granddaughter of Marshal Nalan. If you insist on breaking up this engagement, not only will Marshal Nalan lose face, but it will also be difficult for the Jia Ma Royal Family."

Given Nalan Jie's identity, Jia Xingtian should stand on Nalan Jie's side even if he is trying to persuade him. He has devoted his life to the country for generations, and he can't get a say at a time like this. It would be very disheartening if you don't speak up for him.

Hearing Jia Xingtian's words, Queen Medusa raised her eyebrows slightly, and the aura she exuded was not as aggressive as before.

Queen Medusa herself knew that now was a critical period for reconciliation between the Gama royal family and the snake people. This meant that the snake people could finally leave that wild land. No matter how much she valued Xiao Yan, she should not waste the opportunity she had finally obtained because of this matter.

Otherwise, I would feel ashamed of those snake people who were willing to entrust their lives to me.

But even if it was just skipped like this, Queen Medusa always felt a little unhappy.

So Queen Medusa turned her head, looked past Jia Xingtian, and looked at Xiao Yan, who wanted to speak several times but was interrupted several times.

"What about you, Xiao Yan?" Queen Medusa slowly raised her hand and asked in a serious voice, "What do you think about this matter?"

Chapter 284 Nalan Yanran is practicing

Following Queen Medusa's question, everyone turned their eyes to Xiao Yan.

When Xiao Yan heard Queen Medusa asking for his opinion, he breathed a sigh of relief.

He had been interrupted several times when he wanted to express his opinion, and now it was finally his turn to speak.

Xiao Yan looked stern, and while enduring the pain in his body, he bowed and spoke solemnly to Queen Medusa.

"My Queen, please allow Xiao Yan to reject your proposal."

Hearing Xiao Yan's answer without hesitation, Queen Medusa raised her eyebrows in displeasure.

"Why? Do you think that I am not worthy of you?"

"On the contrary." Facing Queen Medusa's question, Xiao Yan's expression was stern, and he answered frankly: "The Queen is the leader of the Serpent People, and her wisdom and bravery are well-known. Now she has broken through to the Dou Zong level. Xiao Yan's status and position are just a nobody, and his strength is only that of a Grand Dou Master."

"The one who is not worthy of him should be Xiao Yan."

What Xiao Yan said was the absolute truth, without a trace of flattery or modesty.

In terms of family background, he could not compare to Queen Medusa.

In terms of status, he was still not as good as Queen Medusa.

In terms of strength, he is no match for Queen Medusa.

The reputation of Queen Medusa is well-known throughout the northwest continent.

Even though he has received so much help from so many people now, Xiao Yan believes that he is still a nobody in the eyes of others and is not comparable to Queen Medusa at all.

"Oh?"

Xiao Yan's answer made Queen Medusa feel a little better. She narrowed her golden snake eyes slightly and said in a cold voice.

"In that case, I have lowered my status to you, so you should respond. Why are you refusing?"

If a person of lower status actively seeks out someone of higher status, it is a sign of overestimating one's own abilities and being conceited, and it is only natural to reject him.

But now, Queen Medusa has taken the initiative to lower her status and look for Xiao Yan. Xiao Yan, who is of low status, should have no reason to refuse.

After all, this will do no harm to Xiao Yan.

In response to this, Xiao Yan's face was serious and he answered in a deep voice.

"In Xiao Yan's opinion, marriage is a major event in one's life and should never be taken lightly."

"Now, the status of Her Majesty the Queen and Xiao Yan is as different as heaven and earth. Xiao Yan knows that he is not worthy of marrying up to her."

"If Xiao Yan and Her Majesty the Queen were to marry, given the difference in status and strength between them, Xiao Yan would only be able to take, but would not be able to give you anything. This is absolutely not the principle of marriage. Xiao Yan is afraid that he is not worthy of the position, and will feel ashamed of your kindness in the future, so I refuse."

After Xiao Yan's words, Queen Medusa remained silent for a moment.

Then, Xiao Yan spoke again.

"Another reason is that Xiao Yan has already made a three-year agreement with Miss Nalan, but it has not yet been implemented."

"As long as the three-year agreement is not over, Xiao Yan and Miss Nalan will be engaged. If I agree to marry her without permission, I will be unfaithful. Xiao Yan cannot bear such a bad reputation."

"Besides, my engagement with Miss Nalan maintains the dignity of Marshal Nalan and Xiao Yan's deceased grandfather. If Xiao Yan agrees to the Queen's request, how will Marshal Nalan maintain his dignity? My grandfather in the underworld will definitely be deeply disappointed by my behavior."

"Xiao Yan cannot bear this kind of guilt."

Hearing Xiao Yan's answer, Nalan Jie in mid-air showed relief on his face.

If it were someone else, if they were favored by Queen Medusa, they would probably have forgotten about the marriage contract long ago.

But Xiao Yan didn't.

He remembered deeply that he knew that this engagement was not just about him and he must not give it up easily.

Nalan Jie felt really lucky that his granddaughter was engaged to such a young man who took his responsibilities seriously and was not tempted by immediate interests.

After hearing what Xiao Yan said, Queen Medusa looked at Xiao Yan with a hint of helplessness in her eyes.

What should I say?

Xiao Yan elaborated in detail on his own and external reasons why he could not accept Queen Medusa's request. Every word he said was logical and reasonable, leaving Queen Medusa unable to make any argument.

Strict, stubborn, and even a little pedantic, this is Queen Medusa's current impression of Xiao Yan.

Queen Medusa's identity, status, and strength are all there, and she took the initiative to ask for marriage with you, but Xiao Yan was able to refuse so righteously.

To be honest, in the eyes of Queen Medusa, Xiao Yan was really a little ungrateful.

But again, there is nothing to say.

Queen Medusa realized that if she tried to convince Xiao Yan with reason, she would not be able to win the argument.

If you really want Xiao Yan to surrender, you can only rely on force.

Thinking of this, Queen Medusa stared at Xiao Yan with her narrow golden snake pupils, revealing a deep murderous intent towards him, and her words flashed with threats.

"You, are you really not going to obey?"

Feeling Queen Medusa's heart-pounding murderous intent, Xiao Yan's heart trembled and his body instinctively shrank.

Xiao Yan knew that this was fear.

But Xiao Yan still calmed his mind and responded in a serious voice.

“I really won’t obey.” Xiao Yan’s black eyes were dotted with dazzling light, and he said firmly: “If you are a disloyal person, Xiao Yan would rather die.”

I have said this before.

Xiao Yan is a very unusual person, quite unusual.

So far, all his philosophies of action have been based on his own righteousness, including survival.

If he had to abandon the righteous path in order to survive, Xiao Yan would rather give up his life.

For Xiao Yan, what is the value of his survival if he does not follow the right path?

This can be seen from the events of saving Queen Medusa or saving Xiao Yixian, Xiao Yan always puts his own life behind righteousness.

In order to practice the righteous path, Xiao Yan would not hesitate even if it meant his death!

Seeing Xiao Yan's stubborn expression and his unwillingness to give face, Queen Medusa's aura became more murderous, and the atmosphere in the field suddenly became stagnant.

Everyone was on edge, staring closely at Queen Medusa, especially Jia Xingtian and Yunshan. If Queen Medusa made the slightest move, the two would immediately take action.

The solemn atmosphere in the field lasted for dozens of seconds.

"Humph, I don't know what's good or bad."

Just as Yunshan and Jia Xingtian were sweating coldly on their foreheads, Queen Medusa suddenly said this.

Although it sounded very unpleasant, the murderous intent in his body had already dissipated, causing Yunshan and Jia Xingtian to both breathe a sigh of relief.

"Forget it. I don't have time to waste with you right now. I'll just keep this in mind for now."

After saying that, Queen Medusa flashed in Xiao Yan’s sight and approached Xiao Yan in an instant.

Then she stretched out her jade arm, grasped Xiao Yan's collar tightly with her jade hand and pulled him in, close to her stunningly beautiful face.

"But don't think that I will let you go just like that."

"My king, I will not be dismissed so easily."

"As long as it is something that this king wants, no matter how much effort or time it takes, I will definitely get it."

Queen Medusa's beautiful red lips opened and closed, and she slowly moved towards Xiao Yan while everyone was stunned.

"Before you officially become my husband, I will leave a mark on you."

? ? ! ! !

The next moment, everyone was stunned, staring blankly at Queen Medusa and Xiao Yan whose lips were touching.

In an instant, a fact suddenly swirled in everyone's mind.

Xiao Yan was forcefully kissed by Queen Medusa! In front of so many people!!!

Xiao Yan's pupils shrank to the size of a pinhole. He looked at the golden snake pupils of Queen Medusa in front of him in horror, his mind already in chaos.

He really didn't expect that Queen Medusa would do such a thing as not caring about her own face and forcefully kissing a decent man in public!

So many important people are watching you, do you really have no dignity left?!

But no matter how shocked Xiao Yan was, things had already happened.

While Xiao Yan was forced to feel this warmth, an inexplicable sense of familiarity lingered in his mind.

By the way, this isn't the first time Queen Medusa has done this to herself?

Just when Xiao Yan was confused, Queen Medusa finally parted her lips, and her golden snake eyes revealed a hint of charm.

This made Xiao Yan, a boy who thought he had never experienced anything in life, blush red. White mist rose from his hair, the blood in his body flowed faster, and his consciousness became a little dazed.

"Hmm~~~It feels good."

Queen Medusa let go of Xiao Yan, smiled faintly, and said something that was like a bolt from the blue to everyone.

"Just like last time."

Last time?

You guys still have last time?!

"Medusa!!! You and I cannot coexist!!!!!"

Yun Yun's purple eyes were already stained with blood red, and she was about to rush towards Queen Medusa with a sword in hand.

Xiao Yan and Nalan Yanran were fine, after all, they were engaged, and Nalan Yanran was also Yun Yun's disciple, and Yun Yun was the third person who shouldn't have been there.

Since you are a third party, you should hide quietly behind others and never show yourself to others.

But now, seeing Queen Medusa, who was also the third person, kissing Xiao Yan unscrupulously in front of so many people, Yun Yun could no longer suppress the anger and grievance in her heart!

And from what she said, there was also a last time?!

Even I only had it twice!!!

"Yun'er! Calm down! Calm down!!!"
