Chapter 127: Return to the Snake People Tribe and Switch the Qi Method!

"Old Hai, your aura today is quite different from before."

Tianming Yun looked at Hai Bo Dong beside him. At this moment, Hai Bo Dong had already taken the Spiritual Recovery Purple Pill, restoring his peak strength as a 5 Star Dou Emperor. Moreover, due to years of accumulation in cultivation, there were faint signs of breakthrough in his Dou Qi. It was estimated that within the next month, Hai Bo Dong would be able to advance to a 6 Star Dou Emperor.

If Hai Bo Dong takes another Mighty Huang Pill, he can break through to become a 7 Star or 8 Star Dou Emperor in one go!

Although Tianming Yun still has three Mighty Huang Pills in his hands at this time, he does not intend to give them directly to Hai Bo Dong. After all, while there's friendship, there still needs to be clear accounts.

"I must thank Young Tianming for his help this time."

Hai Bo Dong said respectfully. At the same time, he tactfully did not inquire about the other spoils of war in Han Feng's Spatial Ring.

For him, being able to obtain a Spiritual Recovery Purple Pill to restore his strength to its peak was already satisfying enough. As for the other Pills, they weren't his belongings, so he didn't need to think about them.

"Are you planning to refine the Heavenly Flame next? Do you want me to guard it for you?"

Hai Bo Dong lowered his posture, taking the initiative to offer himself as a guard.

"That's right, but I have to make a trip to the Snake People Tribe to fulfill my agreement with Queen Medusa."

Tianming Yun looked at Queen Medusa standing beside him with her arms crossed. Her pale purple eyes glanced at him, as if saying: "You know your place."

"The Snake People Tribe, huh."

Hai Bo Dong's pupils contracted, and an involuntary expression of fear appeared on his face.

He never wanted to go to that cursed place again!

"Don't worry, Old Hai. I believe the Snake People Tribe will surely protect me thoroughly, right?"

Tianming Yun smiled.

Queen Medusa remained silent for a moment, then spoke indifferently, "As long as you fulfill our agreement, then the Snake People Tribe will naturally consider you a friend."

Hai Bo Dong first glanced deeply at Tianming Yun, then at the graceful Queen Medusa beside him. It seemed like he had thought of something, and a strange expression appeared on his face.

"I see."

"Young man, you're really bold!"

"What are you thinking?"

Queen Medusa's face turned cold, her beautiful eyes glaring fiercely at the strangely behaving Hai Bo Dong.

"I-I didn't say anything!"

Hai Bo Dong jumped in shock, quickly shaking his head in denial.

"Nonsense! Don't think I don't know your filthy thoughts inside!"

Queen Medusa gritted her silver teeth, conjuring a whip of Dou Qi in her hand.

"Swish!"

With his Ice Dou Qi Wings spread out, Hai Bo Dong flew into the sky, leaving behind a message: "Tianming, take care of yourself. If anything happens, you can send someone to the Miteer Family to inform me. I'll be at your service anytime!"

"That shameless guy shouldn't have been released from his seal in the first place!"

Queen Medusa cursed angrily. With her peak Dou Emperor strength, she could easily injure low-level Dou Emperors below 3 Stars with a single strike. However, Hai Bo Dong, who had restored his strength, possessed the power of a 5 Star Dou Emperor and was no longer an easy opponent to defeat.

"Your Majesty, don't bully the old folks too much."

"Moreover, Old Hai's thoughts are reasonable too."

Junior Yun Tianming quipped.

"How? You still dare to covet this Queen?"

Queen Medusa narrowed her eyes, with a strong warning in her gaze.

"Yes."

Yun Tianming nodded.

"..."

It seemed even Queen Medusa was taken aback by Yun Tianming's honesty. So far, those who coveted her, whether from the Snake People Tribe or among human elites, were countless. But after being exposed, they either vehemently denied or begged for forgiveness. Yun Tianming's straightforward admission was a first.

"The propagation of offspring is the most important thing for a tribe."

"With my talents and abilities, I believe I am worthy of Your Majesty."

Yun Tianming earnestly made his analysis, with a hint of persuasion.

"Shut up!"

Queen Medusa scolded sharply, her red lips slightly parted, yet she unexpectedly couldn't find any argument to refute the other party directly.

She had to admit, the teenage boy in front of her, only sixteen or seventeen years old, actually possessed the terrifying power to kill an 8 Star Dou Emperor. For the strong-willed Queen Medusa, she couldn't help but feel quite impressed inwardly.

"Don't be angry, Your Majesty. You can take your time to consider."

"This Queen will never consider!"

"Yes, yes, I understand. Let's discuss this another day."

Yun Tianming didn't push it either. In his view, winning over a proud woman like Queen Medusa wasn't something that could be accomplished overnight. It required both parties to spend a long time together, gradually building a deep bond.

Take the example of Yun Tianming and Yun Yun, it took nearly six years, along with certain special events, before Yun Tianming finally achieved his goal. And the difficulty of winning over Queen Medusa wouldn't be lower than that of Yun Yun. Therefore, Yun Tianming naturally needed to have plenty of patience.

...

The two returned to the Snake People Tribe.

"Your Majesty, you're back!"

"And Master Yun, you're here too?"

Sensing their presence, Yue Mei and Hua She'er came out to greet them immediately.

Having consumed the Dou Spirit Pill, Yue Mei's strength had now reached the level of an 8 Star Dou King, vaulting her to the top position among the eight leaders. This made her quite favorable towards Yun Tianming.

Queen Medusa glanced lightly at Yue Mei, naturally noticing her change in strength. She also knew from Hua She'er that the pill was a gift from Yun Tianming.

"I have an agreement with Your Majesty"

Yun Tianming responded with a smile.

"Hua She'er, take Yun Tianming to the sacred place where I cultivate."

"If you need any medicinal materials, you can directly instruct Hua She'er to fetch them from the storeroom."

Queen Medusa knew that refining the Heavenly Flame was not an easy task and would likely take quite some time.

"Ah, understood!"

Hua She'er was first stunned, then quickly expressed her obedience.

Yue Mei and Hua She'er exchanged glances, both detecting the surprise in each other's eyes.

Queen Medusa, who had always been hostile towards humans, not only allowed Yun Tianming to stay in the Snake People Tribe but even permitted him to enter her usual cultivation sacred place and freely access the storeroom for medicinal materials. What was going on? Was she keeping a male pet?

"Before that, I need to re-cultivate a Qi Method. It will take at least a year or two."

"But please rest assured, Your Majesty. Once I refine the Heavenly Flame, I will wholeheartedly assist Your Majesty in evolution."

Yun Tianming made a solemn promise.

"Alright, I'll trust you on this!"

After hearing this, Queen Medusa wasn't in a hurry either. It just so happened that she needed time to switch to a new Earth Rank Qi Method as well.
