"My Queen, you've truly misunderstood me."
Yan Qingshan, of course, wouldn't admit his original ultimate goal. Since plans couldn't keep up with changes, he didn't dare to provoke Queen Medusa further. He softly and carefully said, "Queen, I truly acted on impulse yesterday. I swear, I feel for you..."
Yan Qingshan swore profusely. Anyway, there was an abundance of such boilerplate phrases in the Dawn database. Having analyzed Queen Medusa's personality these past few days, he also knew many of her likes and habits. He now enumerated them one by one as evidence of his early affection for her.
Queen Medusa's gaze was initially filled with murderous intent and the anger of being deceived, but as Yan Qingshan spoke, her gaze subtly changed. After all, her interactions with Yan Qingshan these past few days had left her not entirely indifferent to him.
If she truly felt nothing, how could Queen Medusa have so generously bared her body in front of him? Although it was a necessary part of the ritual, being able to do it so readily indicated that Queen Medusa felt something for him…
The things Yan Qingshan was saying now touched on many aspects, with every detail pertaining to her.
Her preferences, tastes, habits—some she hadn't even noticed herself—he could surprisingly articulate. This forced her to believe that perhaps this man had indeed been silently watching her all along.
"You, since you feel for me... then why are you always close to Hua She'er?"
When Queen Medusa asked this question, her snow-white swan neck flushed crimson. For someone of her character to ask this question, besides developing feelings for Yan Qingshan, it was also because this question had truly bothered her for too long.
Every time Hua She'er was present with her, Yan Qingshan would consistently show more concern and attention to Hua She'er, intentionally or unintentionally neglecting her.
This created a sense of imbalance in Queen Medusa's heart, as she had always been the center of attention, leading her to question if her charm had diminished.
"I didn't dare! I didn't dare to try, do you know, Queen? You are too outstanding, as dazzling as the sun, so stunning and beautiful. I was afraid my pursuit would be rejected by you, and then I wouldn't even have a reason to approach you..."
Yan Qingshan already had his lines prepared. When he chose to get close to Hua She'er, he had made full preparations, intentionally neglecting Queen Medusa and Yue Mei to create this imbalance, harboring ulterior motives. "I learned from Sister Hua She'er that you like purple roses, so that morning in the oasis..."
"You are truly quite cunning..."
Queen Medusa sneered. As Yan Qingshan recounted, more details resurfaced in her memory. No wonder she felt that Hua She'er had been serving her better recently; it turned out this man was behind it all.
Although she called him cunning, the vivid red on her jade-like neck had slowly spread to her snowy cheeks, indicating she wasn't entirely unaffected.
"I know that a noble person like the Queen is beyond my reach, so I could only put in some effort, silently approaching little by little..."
Yan Qingshan spoke soft words of affection, slightly tightening his grip on Queen Medusa's wrist, and gently rested his head on her fragrant shoulder, continuing to speak.
Queen Medusa noticed his actions but didn't push him away. Her narrow phoenix eyes still held a trace of suspicion. She tilted her head and said, "You said you acted on impulse yesterday when you wanted to take me away, but how do you explain why you have that Pill specifically prepared for the Seven-Colored Heaven Swallowing Python? You clearly had a premeditated plan."
"As for Chi Lian, Your Majesty has seen her. She is my little pet and has been with me for several years. Our relationship has always been good. I am an Alchemist, so of course I would prepare delicious things for her."
Yan Qingshan's Dawn AI had already formulated a complete plan during this time, and he spoke with increasing calm and credibility. "The Two-Headed Flame Serpent and the Seven-Colored Heaven Swallowing Python both favor fire attribute, and they are both snake Magical Beasts. It's quite normal for their tastes to be similar."
Queen Medusa's gaze was profound, unclear if she accepted Yan Qingshan's explanation. However, the initial murderous intent had completely dissipated. Regardless of whether Yan Qingshan harbored ulterior motives at the beginning, he had, after all, provided a reasonable explanation, and that was enough.
Queen Medusa's beautiful eyes subtly shifted, glancing at Yan Qingshan's arm wrapped around her snow-white neck. Her narrow eyes narrowed slightly, and she instantly lowered her head, biting down hard with her silver teeth.
"Hiss~~~"
Yan Qingshan gasped, feeling as if a piece of his arm was about to be bitten off. But at this moment, he dared not resist, only silently acknowledging the Queen's display of petulance.
A trace of crimson blood slowly stained her rosy lips. Red infused with blood, the vibrant color, added a few more hints of a bloody rose's allure to the alluring Queen Medusa.
"This is punishment for your offense. You shouldn't have harbored such ill intentions."
Yan Qingshan looked pleadingly at Queen Medusa, yet maintained an unfazed expression. Queen Medusa's heart softened slightly. She glared fiercely at him, then reluctantly released her bite.
On the bed, the curvaceous snake beauty sat there naked, a trace of blood on her lips, adding a touch of wild charm.
Noticing Yan Qingshan's gaze, Queen Medusa's face flushed slightly. Her slender hand pulled the quilt beside her and swiftly covered herself. Her enchanting curves, even when covered by the quilt, still appeared extremely alluring.
A light purple snake tail gently hung down, swaying slightly, exuding a wild temptation. Not to mention Yan Qingshan was currently pressing her down, and with the quilt covering them, both were enveloped. They couldn't be seen, but they looked like they were rolling around in bed, suggesting a meaning of trying to cover up something that was already obvious.
Yan Qingshan pressed down on Queen Medusa's delicate body, leaning into her ear and whispering, "Your Majesty, you are the first woman to bite me."
"Hmph!"
Queen Medusa snorted coldly, finally speaking. Her voice was sensuous and lazy, carrying a mesmerizing allure that made men's bones tingle, "Serves you right!"
She extended her tender, crimson tongue, lightly licking her rosy lips. Her unintentional movement carried a charm that made men's hearts pound with desire.
Yan Qingshan wouldn't stop at this moment. Although there were still two other snake beauties beside them, at this moment, his eyes and heart were entirely on the beautiful woman in his arms. He lowered his head and, with lightning speed, before Queen Medusa was prepared, seized her alluring, blood-stained red lips.
The scent of blood was slightly sweet, and something even sweeter was continuously plundered by him. Queen Medusa was a novice in this regard and hadn't expected Yan Qingshan to be so bold and aggressive. After he succeeded, she didn't resist immediately.
"You... how bold!"
After a long while, the breathless Queen Medusa finally moved her exquisite head away from his "wolf's mouth," her face flushed and agitated.
"Same to you. You bit me first, I thought it was an invitation!"
This time, Yan Qingshan shamelessly pressed closer, whispering intimately and enjoying himself. Queen Medusa didn't completely resist; wasn't this a case of "playing hard to get"? If he didn't seize the opportunity now, would he still be a man?!
Queen Medusa panicked slightly. "You... don't mess around. Hua She'er and Yue Mei are both..."
"They were so tired last night staying up with me that they won't wake up anytime soon."
Yan Qingshan chuckled, with a hint of smugness. A man should indeed feel proud of such achievements. "I heard they were arranged by Her Majesty the Queen. If they failed, shouldn't Her Majesty clean up the mess herself?"
"You... dream on..."
Queen Medusa wouldn't agree to him so easily. She struggled to escape, but deliberately didn't use any Dou Qi, seemingly afraid of hurting him, almost as if she were pouting.
"No escaping now. Your Majesty, surrender to me today!"
Yan Qingshan wouldn't let go of this opportunity. He immediately pursued his advantage, beginning to tease the aloof and beautiful Queen.
Queen Medusa's pretty face was flushed, but she still maintained some composure, resisting slightly, "Don't mess around. I am the Queen of the Snake-people race. I must undergo a baptism first before I can..."
At this moment, Yan Qingshan wasn't listening. His eyes crimson, he sought to descend from her exquisite head, preparing to devour the beautiful woman before him. But unexpectedly, at the critical moment, this snake beauty played another trick on him.
An intense burst of light shot out. Yan Qingshan's hand felt empty. Queen Medusa's body slowly shrank, finally transforming into the seven-colored small serpent from yesterday. It looked at the flushed Yan Qingshan with an innocent gaze, even hissing as if saying it was hungry.
Yan Qingshan blinked, and a wave of unidentifiable anger surged within him. He had originally intended to seize the opportunity to take Queen Medusa, but he hadn't expected this snake beauty to be so slippery, pulling this trick on him at the last minute. This was truly...
However, a cool breeze blew, bringing him some calm. First, he took out a jade bottle and threw it to the seven-colored small serpent, letting it play by itself. Then, he pulled back the quilt. Two enchanting and beautiful snake-women lay intertwined on the bed, quietly waiting for his favor.
The Queen ran off, but weren't there still the Commander and the Guard Captain? The small flames ignited by the Queen naturally had to be extinguished by the obedient female subordinates. Yan Qingshan waved two streaks of Dou Qi across the necks of the two women.
The murmuring "mm-hmm" sounds that had just begun were replaced by startled cries, followed by another round of romantic escapades, turning the bed into a tempestuous red wave.
Inside the Snake-people temple, three figures walked together in the corridor. The afternoon sun brought excessive heat. Yan Qingshan and the two women, all accomplished in Dou Qi, were simply clothed in thin garments.
Yue Mei and Hua She'er, having just received his favor, could not hide the allure in their eyes and often engaged in intimate gestures with Yan Qingshan.
The three of them headed towards the core Elder's Hall within the temple. That was where the four elders of the Snake-people race resided, and it was also the heart of the Snake-people tribe, where the elder generation of powerhouses cultivated.
"You two, the Queen is still missing, yet you are so shameless..."
Outside the Elder's Hall, Mo Bas was chained to a gigantic boulder, directly enduring the scorching sun. This was the elders' punishment for his impulsive actions yesterday. When he saw Yan Qingshan and the two women arrive, a burst of rage immediately erupted.
Yan Qingshan had been very intimate with Yue Mei and Hua She'er. Yesterday, they even prevented him from attacking Yan Qingshan.
And seeing the seductive charm in the two women's eyes, and realizing that while the Queen's fate was unknown, these two women were indulging themselves, his anger was completely unrestrained.
