Seeing the Sky Swallowing Python wake up, Chen Yang smiled and tapped her head with his finger. "Little guy, you're finally awake. Let me see... Oh, you're already equivalent to a Fifth-Tier Magical Beast. Not bad, not bad..."
Chen Yang waved his hand to store the Dou Ling Pill into a jade bottle and set it aside. Then, he reached out and began to play with the Sky Swallowing Python, rolling her around until the little snake was nearly dizzy.
"Ying ying ying..." After the Sky Swallowing Python's seven-colored body struggled fruitlessly in Chen Yang's hands, she gave up. Chen Yang smiled and took out the accompanying purple crystal source from his storage ring, feeding nearly half a bottle directly to the Sky Swallowing Python.
Now that the Little Amethyst Winged Lion King had successfully broken through to a Fifth-Tier Magical Beast, this stuff was only useful for feeding his pet snake.
"Ha... hiss hiss hiss..." Having drunk half a bottle of the accompanying purple crystal source, the Sky Swallowing Python let out a comfortable hiss. Her snake body twisted as she climbed onto Chen Yang's shoulder, rubbing her small head against his face repeatedly.
Seeing this, Chen Yang's heart overflowed with affection. He scooped the Sky Swallowing Python into his hands and kissed her directly.
Just as Chen Yang's mouth was about to kiss the Sky Swallowing Python, a strong red light suddenly erupted from her body. Chen Yang was momentarily stunned. Then, he felt a sensation of softness against his lips. As the light faded, the little snake in his hands had transformed into a naked, exquisite body. The only difference was that below the waist, this body transitioned into a pale purple snake tail. (Don't argue, this is from the original text.)
Looking at the top of the head with its flowing black hair, Chen Yang pulled his lips away from Medusa's forehead and looked at the beautiful snake-woman in his arms.
At this moment, Medusa looked at Chen Yang with a complex gaze. Through the shared memories of the Sky Swallowing Python, she knew very well everything Chen Yang had done to the Snake-People Tribe, and she also knew what she had experienced while Chen Yang carried her during this time.
"It seems Your Majesty the Queen's Soul Power has recovered quite well!" Chen Yang felt the softness in his hands, his aggressive gaze scanning Medusa from head to toe as he spoke with a smile.
"Medusa is well aware of everything Your Excellency has done for the Snake-People Tribe. Thank you, Your Excellency, for sparing my four Elders." Medusa spoke slowly in a voice ten times more seductive than Ya Fei's, her words filled with gratitude.
"A gentleman from my hometown once said, 'Make as many friends as possible and as few enemies as possible.' To me, the Snake-People Tribe is not an enemy. Since we aren't enemies, there's no need to make the relationship so tense. Don't you agree, Your Majesty?" Chen Yang shifted his gaze to Medusa's face, looking into her phoenix-like eyes and speaking with a smile.
"That old gentleman from Your Excellency's hometown is truly a wise man!" Medusa nodded and praised.
"He preferred others to think of him as a teacher." Chen Yang smiled, a hint of nostalgia in his heart.
"Someone who could say such words must surely have students all over the world..." Medusa remarked.
"Him..." Chen Yang showed a faint smile. His Disciples were indeed spread throughout the entire world.
Seeing Chen Yang's nostalgic expression, Medusa quietly slipped out of his embrace. With a flick of her pale purple snake tail, she moved to the side of Chen Yang's bed and pulled a quilt over her exquisite body.
Chen Yang smiled, waved his hand to put away the Medicine Cauldron, and stood up to sit at the table across from the bed. "I observe that Your Majesty the Queen seems to need some more time before you can completely control your new body?"
Hearing this, Medusa's beautiful brows furrowed slightly. "What Your Excellency says is true. Moreover, the Sky Swallowing Python seems to have birthed a new Soul. That flame Your Excellency gave her to consume has a strong suppression over me. If the Sky Swallowing Python's body grows to the seventh tier, I might cease to exist!"
Medusa didn't know what Chen Yang was thinking—whether he needed an obedient Seven-Colored Sky Swallowing Python or an obedient Medusa. This point was very important to her.
Chen Yang reached out and poured a cup of tea, using Dou Qi to support the bottom of the cup as it flew to Medusa. Seeing her take the cup, Chen Yang slowly said, "This matter isn't difficult to solve. I have now been promoted to a Sixth-Rank Alchemist and possess a pill called the spirit fusing pill. This pill can not only restore Your Majesty's Soul Power to its original state but also allow you to perfectly control this body. Even the Sky Swallowing Python's Soul can be preserved."
Medusa's breathing suddenly quickened. As her delicate body trembled, the quilt over her chest slipped down slightly, immediately catching Chen Yang's eye.
It had to be said that compared to being completely naked, this half-hidden, half-revealed state was even more alluring.
"I wonder what price Medusa must pay to request Your Excellency to refine this pill?" Medusa seemed not to notice the slipping quilt, asking with a face full of hope.
"You!" Chen Yang stared straight at Medusa, succinct and to the point.
"..." Medusa looked at Chen Yang. After a long silence, a flash of light passed over her body, and she transformed back into the Sky Swallowing Python.
The Sky Swallowing Python, pinned under the quilt, let out a "wu wu wu" cry. Then, a burst of seven-colored flames flew out, burning a hole in the quilt. Following that, the Sky Swallowing Python cried "ying ying ying" and flew in front of Chen Yang, rubbing her small head against his face again.
"You little guy..." Chen Yang reached out and placed the Sky Swallowing Python on his shoulder, then stood up and walked out of the room. As for Queen Medusa... there was plenty of time in the future!
After going out, Xiao Yi Xian and Ya Fei were sparring with Dou Techniques in the courtyard, while Qing Lin attended to them. As for Yun Yun, she had left the Imperial Capital yesterday and returned to Yun Lan Mountain.
Currently, both Ya Fei and Xiao Yi Xian were at the strength of a Nine-Star Great Dou Shi. Without using poison, Xiao Yi Xian's combat experience was about the same as Ya Fei's. The two "weaklings" pecking at each other actually had a unique charm.
As for Qing Lin, her strength wasn't progressing very fast; she was only a Seven-star Dou Practitioner now. That Two-Headed Fire Spirit Snake was a bit too powerful for her, and it was difficult for her Triple Jade-Green Snake Flower Pupils to digest.
