Accepting Medusa, The Universe In The Cave

Long Tian could not help but be stunned. He immediately turned around to find that Medusa had already woken up. She was currently looking at him with a suspicious expression.

"Master? Were you calling me?" She asked.

Long Tian was stunned for a moment. He didn't seem to have said anything just now. He didn't take advantage of her when she was down, right? At this moment, Medusa slowly crawled toward him with alluring movements.

"Ah... You... What are you doing?" He was startled and could not help but take a step back.

"Master, don't give up on me. I'll obediently listen to you and do whatever you want," Medusa said to him with a pitiful look on her face. Her eyes were still glistening with tears, making one's heart ache.

Not only did Long Tian's heart ache, but he also felt a strange flame rising in his body. He took a few deep breaths and said, "Alright, I won't give up on you. You can just follow me from behind."

"Thank you, Master," Medusa showed a bright smile this time. She wrapped her arms around his neck and pressed her red lips against his.

Her action gave him a huge fright. But he still moved forward to meet her due to his nature as a dragon. After a while, Medusa sat down obediently at the side. Long Tian also began to think about the reason for the current situation.

Many memory fragments appeared in his mind as he pondered. He suddenly recalled that he seemed to have fed dragon blood to Medusa previously. Perhaps it was the cause of what happened.

It was an unexpected turn of events. It seemed that he could not casually feed his blood to others in the future. With that thought in mind, Long Tian grabbed the Spiritual Rice and Body Pill and ate them as snacks.

As soon as he put it in his mouth, however, he found that the improvement brought by these two things was less than before. They no longer seem to be of much help to cultivation.

He could not help frowning. Could it be that he had eaten too much earlier? Or was there something wrong with the reward this time? Now, the Body Pill was only one-third as effective, and the improvement brought by the Spiritual Rice was basically negligible.

Was there a possible problem with the reward this time? His gaze shifted to Medusa who was sitting by his side. He grabbed a handful of Spiritual Rice and handed it to her.

"You haven't fully recovered from your injuries and you've been unconscious for so long. You should eat something first," Long Tian said in a gentle voice.

She took the Spiritual Rice and sniffed it. She had never seen something like this before, but she quickly ate it. Very soon, Long Tian could sense that her body was emitting an extremely dense Spirit Qi fluctuation. Medusa slowly closed her eyes and began to cultivate. Her strength was constantly rising, and even the size of her body had increased.

[Name: Medusa]

[Race: Naga]

[Energy: A]

[Physical Attack: B+]

[Physical Defense: B+]

[Magic Attack: A+]

[Magic Defense: A+]

[Talent: A]

[Skill: Petrification (Active)]

'She's quite talented. It seems like there's nothing wrong with the Spiritual Rice. It's just that I've eaten too much of it and it's no longer effective.' Long Tian thought emotionally after looking at the evaluation panel.

His gaze suddenly shifted to Medusa's figure after he finished looking at the evaluation panel. He could not help but gulp as he looked at the sight of her curvaceous body. He had to admit that her body was of the highest splendor.

"Thank you, Master, for giving me the spiritual item to help me recover from my injuries and increase my strength." Medusa slowly opened her eyes at this time, revealing a charming expression.

Only then did Long Tian retract his gaze from her body. He slowly nodded and spoke with a serious expression, "It's fine. Today, you've recognized me as your Master. This kind of reward is only appropriate."

Medusa immediately rushed forward and hugged Long Tian. She gently blew into his ear. "Master, you're the best!" 

This made him so restless that he almost couldn't help but do something inappropriate. However, his rationality managed to suppress his true nature. He looked at her and asked, "Medusa, do you know the situation on this deserted island?"

Medusa pulled her body back. Her eyes involuntarily became a little dim as she shook her head. "I'm not too sure about the situation here."

She seemed to be troubled that she could not be of help to him. Long Tian furrowed his brow and asked, "Since you don't know the situation here, how did you end up being imprisoned here?"

Medusa's expression turned ugly when she heard the question. She seemed to be a little agitated, and her body trembled. 

"Our tribe has been attacked by the Tigerman Tribe. Those guys are very strong, and I'm not their match, so I came here to seek help from the Giant Python. But what I didn't expect was that not only would it not help us, but it would also sneak attack me and imprison me in this place."

Long Tian's heart sank when he heard this. It seemed like the situation on this deserted island was more complicated than he had thought.

He had originally thought that this was a place without many people, but he hadn't expected that there would actually be two tribes co-existing. Perhaps, there were even more of them that he just hadn't known yet.

If that were the case, this place could not be considered safe. Long Tian thought to himself. He then realized that Medusa had come before him and knelt.

"Master, I know that this request is too much, but I still hope that you can help us deal with the Tigerman Tribe and save the people of my tribe." Medusa was already sobbing uncontrollably when she said this.

His expression could not help but turn solemn when he saw her cry. He extended his hand and patted her head.

"I promise you, I will definitely help you with this. We'll return to your Naga Tribe from here in a moment." Long Tian pulled her up after he finished speaking.

Medusa's expression became slightly better after hearing his promise. At this moment, Long Tian suddenly sensed an extremely powerful aura fluctuation coming from the cave.

This was the smell of treasure! Long Tian was overjoyed. He immediately led Medusa into the cave. They went deeper into the cave and found that there was a circular open space with a tree branch sticking out of it.

There was a red fruit hanging on the branch. The fruit looked very tempting. The aura of the treasure was coming from this red fruit.

"This, V-Vermi... this is a Vermilion Fruit?!" Medusa let out a cry of surprise.
