Chapter 7: Medusa Agrees to Marry

Medusa was stunned when she heard Jiang Xing's request for her to marry him. The young man before her had come here for her. At this moment, the hall was extremely quiet.

After a long time, Medusa came back to her senses and smiled. "Sir, please stop joking and making fun of me."

"I'm not kidding. To be honest, I fell in love with the Queen at first sight," Jiang Xing said, looking affectionate.

Medusa was speechless, thinking: Love at first sight? I think it was lust at first sight! And you want me, the queen of the snake people, to marry you just to borrow the strange fire?

This was the first time she met the young man in front of her. Not only did she not have any feelings for him, but she also didn't even have the most basic understanding of him. If anyone else dared to speak to her like that, she would have killed that person long ago.

But this person is Jiang Xing. No, it should be said that this person is Jiang Xing, who has a powerful background. She dare not.

She is the queen of the snake people. Her actions not only represent herself but also the entire snake people. As the saying goes, if you want to wear the crown, you must bear its weight. Most of the time, she always puts the interests of the snake people first.

Seeing that Medusa didn't speak, Jiang Xing made another promise. "If the queen agrees, not only can I lend you the strange fire to help you break through to Dou Zong, but I can also promise to provide the snake people with a habitat suitable for their survival."

If Medusa agreed, she would be his wife in the future, and he would help her with these things. In this case, what's wrong with making a promise in advance? After hearing Jiang Xing's promise, Medusa's heart began to waver.

Jiang Xing's words touched Medusa's heart. Medusa attached great importance to her tribe. In order to gain a better territory for her tribe, she was willing to use the strange fire that conflicted with her own attributes to carry out extremely dangerous evolution.

"Of course, even if the queen disagrees, don't worry. I, Jiang Xing, will never get involved," Jiang Xing said sincerely.

"But what if I fail to evolve?"

"I believe that you will be able to evolve successfully," Jiang Xing said confidently.

Medusa didn't know why Jiang Xing was so confident in her. After calming down, Medusa decided to think about it again, so she spoke.

"This is not a trivial matter. Your Excellency, please give me a few days to think about it."

Jiang Xing knew that Medusa would definitely not agree right away, so he was not in a hurry. "No problem, Queen, please think about it carefully. I will stay in the Serpent Tribe for the next few days and wait for your reply."

"Okay, I'll send someone to prepare a place for you to stay."

"In that case, I'll trouble you, Your Majesty."

After saying this, Jiang Xing and the other two left the hall, leaving Medusa alone to think about it. Watching the backs of Jiang Xing and others leaving, Medusa fell into deep thought, weighing the pros and cons.

"Queen…"

The flower snake next to her didn't know how to persuade the queen when she saw her like this. Convince the Queen to agree? They didn't know anything about this man, so they asked the Queen to marry him...

Persuade the queen to disagree? The snake people have been trapped in this desert for so many years. All the snake people here are eager to leave the desert one day. Countless snake people ancestors have made countless efforts to leave the desert!

"You should step down first. Let me think about it alone."

Medusa came to the city wall alone, overlooking the city, watching her people, and fell into deep thought...

Whether it is Jiang Xing's strength or background, it is beyond the reach of the snake people. If she agrees, she can get Jiang Xing's help. This is undoubtedly a great support for the Snake People. More importantly, the Snake People can leave the Tagor Desert and obtain a territory that is more suitable for their survival.

…

In the magnificent palace, Medusa sat on the throne. In the past two days, the four elders learned about this matter and came to discuss it with her. All of these four elders hoped that the queen would agree. Medusa's mind was a little wandering as she pondered what the elders had said.

"We need a strong man to lead our people to find a place suitable for our snake people to survive."

"Now this person has appeared, that is Jiang Xing. Jiang Xing has already reached Dou Zong at such a young age, and he has a profound background. It is only a matter of time before he becomes Dou Zun in the future. Moreover, Jiang Xing obviously has the power to force the Snake People, but he still respects the Queen. We hope that the Queen can consider it carefully."

These are the exact words of one of the elders.

After a long time, Medusa finally figured it out and stood up from the throne. Her greatest wish is to lead the snake people out of the desert. If Jiang Xing can do it, then what's the harm in marrying him?

After making up her mind, Medusa sent someone to invite Jiang Xing.

When Jiang Xing arrived in the hall, he saw the queen sitting lazily on the throne.

"The Queen summoned me here, but have you thought it through?" Jiang Xing spoke slowly while admiring Medusa's lazy look.

Medusa didn't notice Jiang Xing's gaze, but she felt that this posture was a bit inappropriate for meeting people. After straightening herself, she confirmed with Jiang Xing again.

"Jiang Xing, if I agree, are you really willing to help my snake people find a suitable habitat?"

"Of course, this is not a difficult thing for me." It's not that difficult to help the snake people find a habitat. Jiang Xing doesn't even need to ask his grandfather for help. Ji Feng beside him can do it. There is no need to lie to Medusa.

"Okay, I agree, but I have a request."

"Any request?"

"You must lend me the strange fire to evolve first. If I can evolve successfully, I will keep my promise and marry you. If I fail to evolve...you must not embarrass my people."

Medusa was worried that if she failed to evolve, Jiang Xing would attack the snake people. Jiang Xing thought Medusa was asking for more, but he didn't expect it to be this. He readily agreed, "No problem, I promise you this."

Jiang Xing asked immediately, "So Queen, when do you plan to start evolving?"

"Let's start tomorrow." Medusa had already made plans. She would arrange the affairs of the tribe soon and start evolving tomorrow.

"Okay, then Queen, you just get ready first, and Evolution will send someone to call me tomorrow."

Jiang Xing knew that Medusa must have a lot more to tell him, so he didn't stay for long. After saying this, he turned around and left.

In fact, Medusa chose such a tight time because she was afraid that Jiang Xing would do something to her and she would find it difficult to refuse.

Seeing Jiang Xing leave, Medusa began to order her men to call the leaders and elders of each tribe to explain the affairs. The tribal leaders and elders were worried when they knew that Her Majesty the Queen was going to use the strange fire for evolution, but Medusa had already made the decision, and no matter how much they objected, it was useless. They could only promise to do their jobs well and not let Her Majesty the Queen worry.

At the same time, they also silently prayed to the snake spirit in their hearts, hoping that Her Majesty the Queen could evolve successfully.

The next morning, after taking care of clan affairs and adjusting herself to her best condition, Medusa found Jiang Xing. She indicated she was ready and could start evolving.
