Chapter 17: The End?

The Snake-People Tribe.

A tribe that abided by ancient traditions. For generations, there would be a queen in the tribe — Medusa.

They were exceptionally talented and led the Snake-People to resist the invasion of other tribes, allowing the tribe to survive until today. The fierce name of Queen Medusa had also spread across the entire continent.

Every generation of Medusa would descend into the world from an egg and a powerful strength would be continuously passed down.

This time, Medusa, who had descended into the world with the egg, was actually a twin.

...

"I remember now. I remember who I am…"

"Both of you, stop!"

Zi Yu Di suddenly appeared between the two of them. Purple colored Dou Qi wings blossomed from her back.

"Ah…"

Chen Mo and Queen Medusa both exclaimed. Immediately, they said in unison, "Move aside!"

Queen Medusa hurriedly withdrew her hand. However, her speed was too fast. When she arrived in front of Zi Yu Di, she had only withdrawn seventy percent of her strength.

At this moment, Chen Mo flapped his wings and hugged Zi Yu Di, allowing her to curl up in his embrace. After which, he faced Queen Medusa's attack with his back facing her.

"Bang!"

The enormous strength caused the two of them to rapidly descend like meteors.

After which, they smashed deeply into the yellow sand below, creating a large pit.

At this moment, the entire world became quiet.

Queen Medusa was also stunned. That human was actually willing to go to such an extent for his sister.

Mo Ba Si waved his hand and led a group of Snake-People to surround them.

The moonlight was beautiful. On the calm yellow sand, following a heart-wrenching cry, the surrounding energy fluctuations swept up the yellow sand.

"No!"

In the large yellow sand pit, Zi Yu Di was half sprawled on the yellow sand. She hugged Chen Mo. Her tears could not stop falling from her eyes and landed on Chen Mo's face.

Zi Yu Di looked at the pale and weak Chen Mo, who was spitting out mouthfuls of blood. She gently stroked his face and sobbed, "Don't worry." Chen Mo muttered.

"Why, why, why are you so stupid?"

"Cough cough… I said… I said that I would protect you…" Chen Mo's smile was deathly pale as he stuttered out his words.

At this moment, Zi Yu Di's tears stopped for a moment before she cried even harder. She recalled the first time she met Chen Mo. He smiled at her and said, "I'm here to take you away."

Then.

He endured his injuries and brought her away.

He roasted a fish for himself.

If there was any danger, he would let her go first.

Then, every time he had nowhere to run, he would repeatedly say that he would protect her, but every time he tried to protect her, he would get injured…

As these scenes flashed through Zi Yu Di's mind, she realized that she had unknowingly fallen in love with this human.

"…Cough cough, don't cry. You won't be pretty if you cry…" Chen Mo raised his hand to wipe Zi Yu Di's tears. However, due to the various injuries on his body, his raised hand fell weakly.

Suddenly, Zi Yu Di grabbed Chen Mo's hand and placed it on her face.

"Your Majesty!"

Mo Ba Si and the others who surrounded Chen Mo hurriedly bowed and made way.

Queen Medusa walked forward with an indifferent expression.

Arriving at the edge of the sandpit, Queen Medusa stopped and used Dou Qi to suck at the crown in the distance. The crown instantly flew into her hand.

Zi Yu Di gently placed Chen Mo down and held his hand. She said gently, "You were the one who protected me before. Now, it's my turn to protect you."

Zi Yu Di stood up and spread out her hands. She stood in front of Chen Mo and said with a determined expression, "Sister, you're not allowed to hurt him."

Queen Medusa slowly put on her crown and looked down at Zi Yu Di with unparalleled beauty. Her seductive red lips moved slightly.

"Follow me back and I'll promise you."

"Your Majesty, but…"

Mo Basi wanted to say something but before he could finish, Queen Medusa glared at him coldly.

The sharp gaze scared Mo Ba Si so much that he took a step back.

"Thank you, sister. I'll go back with you." Zi Yu Di said.

"Cough cough… Zi Yu Di, you can't. They'll kill you."

The Dou Emperor Trial Card's time had not ended. Chen Mo circulated his Dou Qi and wanted to stand up. However, the injuries on his body were more serious than he had imagined. He spat out a mouthful of blood.

"Do you want to die?"

When Queen Medusa heard this, she frowned and said coldly.

Zi Yu Di turned around and looked at Chen Mo. She squeezed out a smile and said, "Don't worry. Sister won't hurt me."

"She won't hurt you but what about your clansmen? He wanted to kill you just now…"

Chen Mo raised his finger with great difficulty and pointed at Mo Ba Si. He immediately said, "I've said that I'll protect you. If you really want to go back, I'll go with you."

His sincere words hid his true motive.

[Ding, Favorability + 1. Obtained 1 Favorability Coin.]

Mo Ba Si's expression changed, "Brat, you're courting death."

Zi Yu Di was touched when she heard this. Her eyes turned and looked at Queen Medusa.

However, before she could open her mouth, Queen Medusa said, "That's impossible."

Queen Medusa looked at Chen Mo indifferently, "Protect her? How can you protect her in your current state?

Also, if This Queen is not wrong, your true cultivation is not that of a Dou Emperor. I don't think that you can maintain your current state for long."

Her voice faded.

Everyone's expression became dull. Their gazes looked at Chen Mo in unison.

Chen Mo's expression changed slightly. He said in a manner that was neither servile nor overbearing, "So what? Also, there is one thing that Your Majesty is not right. That is, I can protect her. Didn't Your Majesty see it with your own eyes before… "

Queen Medusa's expression sank. She knew that this human was talking about the slap that he had received for her sister. However, her pride as a queen could not allow her to lower her head to a human. However, the frost on her face lessened a little. She coldly smiled and said,

"Little fellow, I have to say that you are the first human who dares to speak to This Queen in such a manner …"

Chen Mo quietly listened and waited for Queen Medusa to continue speaking.

As a twin sister, Zi Yu Di could hear the change in her sister's words. She said once again,

"Sister, I beg you. His injuries are so serious. Bring him back to the palace to treat him."

Hearing her sister's pleading and the plan that had just appeared in her mind, Queen Medusa said indifferently,

"Little fellow, don't you humans like to take us Snake Girls as slaves? If that's the case, from now on, you can also try being a slave to This Queen!"

(Mama Mia...)

Queen Medusa waved her hand, "Bring him back to the palace."

"Your Majesty…"

"Presumptuous, Mo Ba Si. You are getting bolder!"

Mo Ba Si was so frightened that his expression changed. His pair of cold eyes stared at Chen Mo. A killing intent flashed across his eyes, "I don't dare, Your Majesty!"
