[Ding! Medusa and Hankku consumed one each of the following: "Attribute Booster," "Universal Stone," "5x EXP Card," "Anti-Poison Pill," "Poison Pill," "Black Tortoise Meat," "White Tiger Meat," "Blood of the War God," "Golden Divine Gift," "Red Divine Gift," and "Golden Roc Golden Skill Book," for a total of 52,000 items returned.]
He gave Medusa and Hancock 3,000 bottles of "Attribute Booster," and 10,000 each of "Blood of the War God," "Golden Divine Gift," and "Red Divine Gift."
Medusa and Hancock looked at Fang Xian with eyes full of love upon seeing so many top-tier items.
"Thank you, husband."
"Thank you, husband, I love you to death."
Fang Xian picked up his pants and slowly put them on.
"I love you all too. Have someone distribute the 'Black Tortoise Blood,' then you absorb the remaining 'Black Tortoise Blood.' It would be best if you also used all the 'Attribute Enhancement Agents.'"
Medusa and Hankku nodded obediently. With these items, they were sure they could wipe out the Eaglemen and avenge their ancestors.
"Let's go, we'll go together."
Fang Xian thought for a moment; now was the best opportunity to gain "Prestige Points."
Saving the snakes from their plight, they naturally deserved to be grateful.
Medusa and Hankku were naturally willing for Fang Xian to go with them; now, Fang Xian was
—their king.
…
In an open space, all the snake clan members gathered.
The Eaglemen's bloodline suppression had left them still recovering.
They all looked worried and listless.
"The Empress and Queen have been missing for over an hour. Why have they summoned us now?"
"I don't know. Besides, not a single human has participated except for us snake people."
"Then it's probably a mobilization meeting targeting our snake people."
"Sigh! How can they mobilize us? And what's the point?"
"Instinctive fear can't be resolved with just a few words. Look, my hands are still shaking..."
"Me too."
"Look around, who isn't shaking? Every snake person is terrified from the bottom of their heart."
"Damn eagle people! They actually chased us into human territory."
"Waaah! I don't want to die."
"If it weren't for the fear in my bloodline, I would definitely take a few eagle people down with me, but..."
"Sigh! This is the fate of us snake people, ultimately becoming food for the eagle people."
"I'm not reconciled! Is there really no way to escape this fate?"
Just then, Empress Hankku and Queen Medusa slowly walked in from a distance, their faces radiating confidence, the trembling from their bloodline suppression gone.
The snake-people, witnessing this scene, exchanged bewildered glances.
Especially the fact that the Empress and Queen were flanking a human man, a completely unfamiliar young man, left them utterly perplexed.
Fang Xian stopped before the snake-people, Hankku and Medusa standing quietly on either side of him.
He waved his hand, and the "Covering Cloth" flew out, expanding in the air until it could cover a thousand people.
The snake-people wanted to say something, but seeing that the Empress and Queen remained silent, they allowed the "Covering Cloth" to envelop them.
Fang Xian finished setting up the "Deception Cloth" and, seeing that the snake people offered no resistance, couldn't help but admire Hankku and Medusa's prestige.
He smiled slightly at the snake people and introduced himself.
"Hello everyone, my name is Fang Xian, and I am your
—King."
These words caused an uproar.
They looked at each other, puzzled, and stared at Hankku and Medusa.
"Your Majesty, what does this mean?"
"Your Majesty, what is he saying? What does 'our king' mean?"
"Yes, haven't our kings always been Your Majesty the Empress and Your Majesty the Queen?"
"When did a man join our snake-people race? Especially not a man as king?"
"What right does a human man have to be our king?"
"Yes! What right does he have!?"
Fang Xian smiled slightly and reached out to stop Hankku and Medusa from stepping forward to intervene.
"You ask me why?"
He casually tossed out the corpse of a "Golden Roc."
The snake-men instinctively retreated at the sight of the Golden Roc's corpse; even Medusa and Hankku frowned.
The intimidation emanating from the Golden Roc was far stronger than that of the eagle-men, for the Golden Roc was the final evolutionary form of the eagle-men.
Even a level 200 Golden Roc, still just a corpse, filled the snake-men with fear.
Fang Xian felt this wasn't enough, and tossed out hundreds more Golden Roc corpses, causing the snake-men to break out in a cold sweat and tremble with fear.
His eyes blazed as he pointed at the Golden Roc corpses, his voice booming.
"I killed so many Golden Rocs because I have an irreconcilable hatred for them."
"I hate all the 'Golden Rocs,' and I hate all the Eaglemen, all the Eaglemen..."
"They all deserve to die!"
The snake people were stunned by Fang Xian's indignant and heartbroken expression.
They never imagined that there could be someone in the world who hated the eagle people more than they did, and who had even killed so many "Golden Rocs"—he was practically their role model.
After listening, someone, overcome by curiosity, couldn't help but ask a question.
"Brother... what grudge do you hold against the eagle-men?"
Fang Xian looked up at the sky.
"A fight to the death."
"What did they do to you..."
Although the snake-men knew they shouldn't ask this, they blurted it out anyway.
Fang Xian looked at the speaker, his eyes sharp. He really wanted to slap her twice and curse her out.
"—You talk too much."
Fang Xian feigned a heartbroken expression, turned his back, and rubbed his eyes, making it seem like he was wiping away tears.
Then he abruptly turned back, his eyes resolute, his voice slightly hoarse.
"Let bygones be bygones. Just remember, we are mortal enemies with the Eagle People!"
The Snake People were deeply moved by Fang Xian's tragic appearance.
Especially the girl who had asked the question earlier, who felt incredibly ashamed.
Years later, she would probably still wake up in the middle of the night and slap herself twice, cursing herself
"I'm really not a Snake Person!"
Fang Xian felt the time was ripe and decided to unleash his ultimate weapon.
"I know you have suffered greatly from the Eagle People's persecution, so in order to help you succeed in your struggle, I went through countless hardships and finally found something that can help you change your fate—that is
—the Blood of the Black Tortoise."
As soon as he finished speaking, Hankku produced an enormous container and placed it before him, filled to the brim with "Black Tortoise Blood."
"Black Tortoise Blood?"
"It really is Black Tortoise Blood?"
"It really is Black Tortoise Blood!!!"
The snake-people were ecstatic at the sight of so much Black Tortoise Blood. With so much Black Tortoise Blood, they no longer needed to fear the eagle-people and could avenge their fallen comrades.
Fang Xian, seeing the opportune moment, raised his fist, his tone sincere and resolute.
"I am willing to provide you with all of Black Tortoise Blood free of charge, only asking that you allow me to lead the snake-people in a fight against the eagle-people to the very end, to avenge our fallen comrades!"
Hankku and Medusa stepped forward, facing Fang Xian, kneeling on one knee, heads bowed, right hand covering their chests, their voices sincere.
The two women declared, "We, Hankku and Medusa, pledge our allegiance to you as our queen, to lead our snake-people in a fight to the very end! To triumph over fate!"
Without further hesitation, all the snake-people knelt on one knee and shouted,
"Greetings, Your Majesty!"
