  Chapter 283 Wedding Date

  "Medusa, don't forget your identity." Feeling the pressure of that powerful aura, the second elder almost roared.

  "How dare you! I am the queen." Medusa shouted fiercely, and the red fighting spirit as deep as the sea burst out again like a bolt of lightning, directly pressing the second elder to the ground. She stared at the second elder with cold eyes and said in a cold voice: "Many years ago, this king abolished the corrupt clan rules. If you dare to disobey my orders again in the future, don't blame me for sentencing you to the clan's crimes."

  Hearing this, the other three snake-man elders looked at Xiao Se with curiosity. It was obvious that Medusa's behavior today was a little abnormal, or in other words, she was stronger than ever before.

  Earlier, when she learned from the serpent-man spies that Xiao Se had clashed with Mobas, Medusa only glared at the Second Elder with some anger and said nothing. At this moment, the Second Elder's intention to attack Xiao Se seemed to have really touched Medusa's bottom line. This was something that had never happened before, even when Die was ordered to be hunted down by the Second Elder.

  It seems that their Queen Medusa is no longer the wavering queen in the past. When faced with a threat to someone she cherishes, she will act without hesitation.

  After thinking for a long time, the elder who had been watching from the sidelines slowly said, "Second Brother, control your subordinates in the future. If there are any negative comments about Die in the clan again, you will be held accountable."

  "Sister, you..." Hearing the first elder's words, the second elder could not believe her ears, because the pursuit of Die that year was carried out with her tacit consent.

  "Why, aren't my words clear enough?" the Great Elder said indifferently.

  "Yes, I understand." The second elder swallowed her saliva. She knew that her elder sister was serious.

  After receiving the second elder's assurance, the first elder's expression eased a little. He looked at Xiao Se again and said in a hoarse but gentle voice, "Don't worry about Die. If anyone in the snake tribe dares to spread negative words about Die in the future, not only will the queen not let him go, even I will make him pay for it. You can rest assured about this."

  "I hope so." Xiao Se said lightly.

  The elder nodded slightly, hesitated for a moment, and suddenly his eyes became a little excited and eager: "I heard that the reason why the butterfly was able to transform is all thanks to the transformation pill you refined. I believe that with your great spiritual power as a seventh-grade alchemist, you should have known that there is a faint breath in Medusa's body."

  "Yes. I know that you snake people have a secret method to enhance the potential of babies, and you are collecting materials to refine the Heavenly Soul Blood-Melting Pill." Xiao Se nodded.

  When Xiao Se finished speaking, several snake-men elders who wanted to take advantage of Xiao Se's opportunity to make a profit suddenly showed expressions of astonishment on their faces.

  "What's the matter? Is there a problem?" Xiao Se smiled awkwardly and asked knowingly.

  "Uh... no... no problem. I'll get the recipe for you later." Upon hearing this, the great elder responded quickly. In his old eyes, a hint of ecstasy flashed. The difficulty of refining the Heavenly Soul Melting Blood Pill and the preciousness of the materials were far from comparable to the lowest-grade seventh-grade pills such as the Transformation Pill. According to their expectations, they only needed to ask Xiao Se for a sixth-grade Snake Marrow Bone Shedding Pill. They never expected that Xiao Se would be willing to spend a lot of effort and high risk to refine the Heavenly Soul Melting Blood Pill.

  Including the second elder who was taught a lesson by Medusa, the three elders who had just stared at Xiao Se with cold eyes, now relaxed their expressions completely. Compared with the future of the snake people, humans and clan rules were all nothing.

  Medusa, who suspected that Xiao Se was practicing the "poison pill method" in the open but secretly having an affair with "Ya Fei", softened her gaze when she looked at Xiao Se.

  "Haha, in that case, I will go and prepare the wedding for you and Medusa right away. The prescription for the Heavenly Soul Blood-Melting Pill will be sent to you later." The Great Elder said to Xiao Se with a smile.

  "Anytime is fine. The reason I came to the Snake Tribe this time is to marry Shasha." Xiao Se said with a smile.

  Hearing that Xiao Se and the Great Elder had finalized their marriage in just a few words, Medusa's eyes flashed with a rare panic, and she said to the Great Elder hesitantly: "Great Elder, isn't this too fast?"

  "It's okay. As the saying goes, good things never come too late. I'm an experienced person. It's inevitable that I feel nervous as a first-time wife." The elder said with a smile.

  "Yes, yes, good things are never too late." Xiao Se agreed.

  Queen Medusa glared at Xiao Se fiercely, turned her head away, and said arrogantly: "I haven't agreed to marry you yet."

  "You're about to be a mother, who else would you marry if not me?" Xiao Se curled his lips, stretched out his right hand, and a powerful suction force surged out from his palm, sucking Medusa into his arms.

  "Let me go." Queen Medusa's pretty face flushed. Xiao Se's strength naturally could not shake her who had greatly increased her cultivation, but she only resisted symbolically for a while and let Xiao Se hold her in his arms.

  The four snake-man elders who were watching Xiao Se and Medusa showing off their love couldn't help but roll their eyes. They had seen people showing off their love before, but they had never seen anyone showing off their love like this.

  The elder smiled and said, "It's settled. Your wedding date will be when Die comes out of retreat. During this time, Master Xiaose should get along well with Medusa."

  Xiao Se nodded slightly, then took Queen Medusa's hand and walked out of the bamboo house.

  The two held hands and walked out of the bamboo forest.

  At the exit of the bamboo forest, Medusa paused and looked at Xiao Se with gentle eyes: "Xiao Se, thank you for what happened with Die just now."

  "Why are you thanking me for no reason? I think with your current status and strength, no one from the Snake Tribe would dare to go against your will." Xiao Se said with a faint smile.

  Medusa shook her head. "I am the queen of the Snake People. Now that I have broken through to Dou Zong, the four elders dare not openly go against my will. But there are many radical elements among them, especially the second elder. Although she is devoted to the Snake People, the corrupt clan rules have long been deeply rooted in her bones. During this period of time, she has been secretly trying to spread rumors that are unfavorable to my sister, hoping to drive Die out of the Snake People again in this way. And I am the queen of the Snake People, and it is impossible for me to directly attack the elders of the tribe, so I had to let Die enter the Medusa Temple in advance to receive the inheritance."

  "Until today, when you came, the four of them were willing to compromise because they saw your potential."

  Xiao Se nodded slightly, expressing his contempt for the four elders of the Snake People. "Those old women are really bad. Their brains are crazy. Although they are Dou Huangs, they are the hidden power of the Snake People. They can't take action easily unless the Snake People face a life-or-death situation. Later, two Dou Huangs appeared with great difficulty, but they wanted to beat one of them to death just because he broke the clan rules."
