Medusa Queen Reappears
Just as Yun Shan's attack was about to land, the Azure Lotus Platform suddenly surged with wisps of terrifying Azure Lotus Flame.
The terrifying high temperature of the erupting Azure Lotus Flame instantly swept away the Dou Technique Yun Shan had unleashed. The appearance of the azure flames startled Nalan Yanran, who leaped back dozens of meters.
Fortunately, the terrifying flames weren't aimed at her; otherwise, she would have been incinerated by the azure flames alone.
"What kind of flame is this? The temperature is so high!"
"I feel like this flame is even more terrifying than Xiao Yan's red Strange Flame!"
Seeing the Azure Lotus Platform and the Azure Flame erupt, Gu He's expression changed, and he muttered to himself, "That azure flame and the lotus platform... could it be the Azure Lotus Earth Core Flame?!"
With a bang, Yun Shan's cloud-like hand was instantly incinerated by the azure lotus flame. Within the azure flames, a graceful figure faintly appeared.
Before everyone could recover, a woman emerged from the azure fire, ethereal and otherworldly. She stepped onto the Azure Lotus, and as her jade foot landed, a soft whooshing sound was heard. The azure flames slowly retracted into the lotus platform.
As the flames receded, the Medusa Queen, wearing an exquisite purple-red dress, lightly stepped on the void. Her red hair was so beautiful, so otherworldly, like a fairy descending to earth. For a moment, many were captivated.
Xiao Yan had long anticipated the day he would need the Medusa Queen to act, so he had Ya Fei at the Mittel Auction House select a loose, exquisite, and luxurious dress for the merciless queen in advance.
Of course, Ya Fei's expression upon hearing Xiao Yan's request for a dress was another story altogether.
"Old man, you can leave now."
A bewitching, chilling voice that could almost make a man's bones go limp slowly echoed across the plaza. Immediately, some of those with weaker resolve had faces as red as the sunset.
It was as if the Medusa Queen's voice itself carried a charm.
Even in loose clothing, the Medusa Queen couldn't hide her shapely figure, with her pert, rounded hips. Her alluring figure, with its curves in all the right places, was like a ripe peach, constantly exuding a tantalizing charm.
Moving his gaze down, Xiao Yan noticed that the Medusa Queen's original snake tail had transformed into two slender, fair human legs at some point. Her snow-white feet hovered half an inch above the ground, crystal clear and untouched by dust.
Although her original body had been destroyed by the Azure Lotus Earth Core Flame, the nourishment from the Azure Lotus and the Ten Thousand Beasts Azure Lotus Pill that Xiao Yan had refined over the past few months had at least given the Medusa Queen the ability to transform into a human form.
Countless gazes followed the sound, and when they saw the enchanting beauty standing beside Xiao Yan, they couldn't help but gasp. However, those who knew more, like Hai Bo Dong... wore expressions of horror.
"Me-Me-Medusa Queen!!!" Hai Bo Dong was like a frog seeing a snake, retreating several steps in fright!
For the past twenty years, Hai Bo Dong had dreamed of the Medusa Queen every night, but they were nightmares.
Xiao Yan slowly turned his head to look at the red-haired woman, whose perfect face combined coldness, allure, and enchantment. He said softly, "By age, you should be older than Yun Shan."
"Hmph!" The Medusa Queen stared at Xiao Yan as if she wanted to devour him, her serpentine pupils constricting as if she were about to attack.
Mentioning a woman's age?! Are you courting death!
Xiao Yan looked away guiltily, not daring to meet the beautiful queen's gaze.
With the appearance of the Medusa Queen, the enchanting beauty, the plaza fell into a brief silence.
When Hai Bo Dong shouted those five words, the short phrase sent a chill down the spines of everyone in the plaza.
Almost everyone in the Gama Empire had heard of this name, the cold and ruthless beauty who had personally killed countless famous experts in past wars with the Gama Empire.
One reason the Gama Empire's top ten experts changed so frequently was because of her.
In this empire, only a handful of people had the strength to contend with this enchanting woman.
But it was only contention; Jia Xing Tian and Yun Shan had both challenged the Medusa Queen, and both had fled back in disarray.
Although they weren't as miserable as Hai Bo Dong, they could only be said to have barely held their own. Victory was out of the question.
This woman, with her ruthless methods that were no less than those of the iron-blooded emperors, deterred several empires near the Tagor Desert from easily launching wars.
Many used words like terrifying, ruthless, and heartless to describe her.
Hai Bo Dong, who had been wondering what means Xiao Yan had, was now completely terrified. He might be able to remain calm in front of Yun Shan, but in front of the Medusa Queen, he could never hide the fear in his heart. The battle in the desert that year still lingered in his mind.
So Xiao Yan had asked him to leave because he was going to summon the Medusa Queen!
Xiao Yan's gentleness moved Hai Bo Dong to tears of gratitude.
"Could it be that the Azure Lotus Earth Core Flame is on Xiao Yan? What kind of deal do he and the Medusa Queen have?" Gu He wondered. The azure flame just now was undoubtedly the Azure Lotus Earth Core Flame, and the Azure Lotus Earth Core Flame itself belonged to the Medusa Queen.
"Could it be related to that evolution?" Gu He had indeed guessed correctly.
The Medusa Queen had been hiding by Xiao Yan's side all along, and now it seemed that there was some kind of relationship between them. The Medusa Queen was protecting Xiao Yan!
"You successfully evolved? No, your current strength is strange. You possess the abilities of a Dou Zong, but your actual power doesn't seem to have reached the level of a true Dou Zong." Yun Shan was indeed worthy of being a true Dou Zong. Even though he was only a one-star Dou Zong and hadn't reached that level for very long, he still possessed great insight.
The Medusa Queen lightly stepped on the void with her jade-like feet, proving that she already possessed the abilities of a Dou Zong, but her strength had only reached the level of a half-step Dou Zong, not fully a Dou Zong.
"It's enough to deal with you." The Medusa Queen gently brushed her beautiful hair. Even though her cultivation was not as high as Yun Shan's, she was not afraid to deal with a one-star Dou Zong like him.
With a buzz, an eerie light flashed in the Medusa Queen's eyes. Yun Shan's heart suddenly felt a great sense of foreboding. He looked down and saw a layer of grayish-white rock suddenly spreading up his feet.
"Break!"
Yun Shan circulated the Dou Qi within his body, his hands quickly forming seals. The surrounding air transformed into invisible sickles, quickly clearing away the Medusa Queen's petrification.
"Hmph." Yun Shan coldly snorted, stepping on the void. With a bang, just before Yun Shan was about to strike out with his palm, a graceful figure suddenly flashed past, and a snow-white, jade-like slender hand lightly flicked against Yun Shan's palm.
The two touched, and instantly, a fierce and unparalleled energy burst forth from the point of contact.
