"Your tribesmen's strength doesn't even have a single Dou Zong; I don't look down on them."
"Only you, Queen, after evolving with the Heavenly Flame, can Breakthrough to Dou Zun, and even have hope of reaching Saint-Grade; you are the only one worth my effort to recruit."
The main focus was sincerity.
Medusa: "..."
"Queen, in fact, you have already prepared to use your own life to fight for a future for the Snake-People Clan, otherwise, you wouldn't be looking for a Heavenly Flame, would you?"
"Queen, you wouldn't want the Snake-People Clan to be unable to leave the desert, would you?"
Xiao Xue put on a reasonable look, guiding her step by step.
Hearing this, Medusa fell into a long silence.
When this generation's Medusa was still in her mother's womb, the Snake-People Clan had paid a huge price to hire a Sixth-Rank Alchemist.
Back then, the Snake-People Clan exhausted all the power of the entire clan, using a sixth-grade pill called "Snake Marrow Shedding Bone Pill" as the main ingredient to lay the foundation for her.
Medusa had been given high hopes since she was a child; she was the leader of the entire Snake-People Clan, carrying the responsibility of letting the Snake-People Clan leave the great desert.
Xiao Xue's words were like a knife, stabbing deeply into Medusa's heart.
"...I can make this deal with you. You use the Heavenly Flame to help me evolve, and I will also take action for you after I Breakthrough to Dou Zong."
"But every time I help you, you must refine a sixth-grade pill for me... for the Snake-People Clan."
"As for Dou Zun and Saint-Grade... we'll talk about that later, how about that?" Medusa said in a deep voice.
"Okay." Xiao Xue nodded and agreed directly to Medusa's conditions.
A Dou Zong taking action once for just one sixth-grade pill—there was probably no Dou Zong in the entire continent cheaper than Medusa.
"Oh, right, our Snake-People Clan and your humans are mortal enemies. Doesn't the force behind you have any misgivings about this?"
Medusa seemed to have suddenly thought of something and asked directly.
The current Fighting Qi Continent, after all, respected humans. Although there were often wars between humans, they were consistent in dealing with outsiders on racial issues.
Even if the high-end combat power of the Snake-People Clan was not inferior to human Empires, they could only survive in the cracks under the alliance of major Empires.
"We were mortal enemies before, but with me, that won't be the case anymore—I'm quite familiar with the Jiama Royal Family, so I'll ask Old Jia to carve out a piece of land for you later."
"By then, the Jiama Royal Family will form an alliance with your Snake-People Clan, and we will all be one family. Dominating the Northwest Continent in the future will be simple."
"As for the Central Plains and my master's side, I will handle it; you don't need to worry."
Xiao Xue drew a big and round picture; dominating the entire Northwest Continent was something Medusa didn't even dare to think about before.
Mainly, if she could evolve successfully and then Cultivate to the Dou Zun Realm, this picture could really be eaten; even Medusa couldn't help but feel a little tempted.
"The ice spirit cold spring and the ice spirit cold marrow are both stored within the Snake-People Clan, and the methods of controlling poison and commanding snakes are also in the tribe, guarded by several Elders."
"If you have nothing to do, why don't you accompany me to the Snake-People tribe?" Medusa's tone softened.
"Sure," Xiao Xue nodded readily, then took advantage of the situation, "I've been busy refining Medicinal Pills these past few days, and I'm really a bit tired."
"Queen, could you give me a ride?"
Her words were not groundless; three or four days of continuous Alchemy had indeed made her somewhat tired.
Medusa looked at Xiao Xue's shy smile, and several black lines appeared on her face.
But since the words were already spoken, Medusa couldn't go back on her word, so she had to wrap her snake tail around Xiao Xue's waist, shake her Dou Qi Wings, and fly towards the Snake-People tribe with Xiao Xue.
