Kapitel 12: Chapter 12: Swallowing a Beast Flame
Snake-people and humans were naturally at odds with one another and had been fighting for over a thousand years.
Snake people were even chased into the scorching Great Tagore Desert by humans.
This was something that was deeply rooted in Zi Yu Di's subconscious and she could not forget it.
Hence, even though Zi Yu Di believed that it was impossible for snake-people and humans to be together, she couldn't help but blurt it out.
When she heard the answer, "Of course you can," she suddenly raised her head. Her eyes lit up, and a smile reappeared on her face.
"Really? You really think snake-people and humans can be together?"
"Of course," Chen Mo replied with a faint smile.
He had read over a thousand novels and had seen everything. Snake-people were nothing to him; he had even seen ghosts and foxes.
[Ding! Favorability +1. You have received one favorability coin.]
Chen Mo received a favorability coin from Zi Yu Di as soon as he finished speaking.
A vibrant smile blossomed on Zi Yu Di's face. "You really are different from other humans. You're a good person."
Chen Mo smiled lightly. This was the second time Zi Yu Di had treated him as a good person.
Zi Yu Di continued, "I don't know what I've done wrong. Why does everyone want to capture me? Humans and snake-people alike. Only you are truly good to me. You take care of me and risk your life to protect me..."
Affected by Zi Yu Di's emotions, Chen Mo said in a warm voice, "Perhaps some of the people who want to capture you don't really want to hurt you. Instead, they want to protect you."
Zi Yu Di: "Hmm?"
Chen Mo couldn't say it out loud. In the anime, Queen Medusa was trying to capture Zi Yu Di on the surface, but she was secretly trying to protect her.
However, Chen Mo changed the subject upon seeing Zi Yu Di staring at him like this. "You're so beautiful, so the world will treat you well. Look, when have you ever encountered a crisis that you didn't manage to avert?"
"So, you appearing before me and saving me was the world's arrangement?" Zi Yu Di teased.
Chen Mo: "..."
Zi Yu Di smiled. "You have a lot of secrets."
"Why do you say that?"
"You don't have a storage ring on you, so where did you get those pills from?"
Chen Mo: "..."
"Alright, pretend I didn't ask. Don't worry, I won't tell anyone." Seeing the stunned expression on Chen Mo's face, Zi Yu Di chuckled.
"Thank you," Chen Mo said.
"So, is this considered a little secret between us?" Zi Yu Di clenched her hands and raised them to her chin. The bells on her body rang slightly.
Looking at Zi Yu Di's expectant gaze, Chen Mo nodded.
[Ding! Favorability +1. Obtained 1 favorability coin.]
Chen Mo was a little stunned.
Zi Yu Di didn't know why, but she found Chen Mo to be more and more attractive. There was a certain temperament on his body that made her a little addicted.
Zi Yu Di pursed her lips and asked softly, "Where are we going next?"
Chen Mo was stumped by Zi Yu Di's question. He originally wanted to find a place to hide for a few days and then continue to pluck her wool.
But now, it was time to think about what to do next.
Escape to a human city?
Or should he let the snake people take Zi Yu Di away?
If he escaped to a human city, he would be intercepted by Queen Medusa and Hai Bodong.
Even if he reached a human city, the strong humans wouldn't let Zi Yu Di go. After all, those who were not of the same race had different intentions.
With Chen Mo's current strength, he still couldn't protect her.
But if he let the snake people take her away, would they accept him?
After all, Chen Mo was bound to Zi Yu Di and couldn't be unbound. Moreover, his current level didn't allow him to bind another goddess.
So, Chen Mo definitely couldn't leave her.
In addition, the elders of the snake-people treated Zi Yu Di as a traitor and wanted to execute her.
"Let's take it one step at a time. We'll talk about it when you regain your memory. Then, wherever you want to go, we'll go," Chen Mo said.
"So, you mean, we'll stay together in the future?" Zi Yu Di said.
"Un. You don't want to?" Chen Mo looked at Zi Yu Di's eyes.
"...Of course not." Zi Yu Di pretended to be calm and laid down. "It's getting late, I... I won't disturb your training. I'm going to sleep..."
After speaking, Zi Yu Di closed her eyes.
[Ding! Favorability +1. Obtained a first-tier pill, Lust Pill x1]
Chen Mo, "Un?"
What the hell was this pill?
Chen Mo didn't even need to open it. Just from the name, he knew it wasn't a normal pill.
...
In the cave, the flame flickered.
Chen Mo took out the Sky Thunder Blood Eagle's Beast Flame from his bag.
(Note: There are times that I won't be able to notice this, so I hope you'll just let it be if I will use inventory or bag, either of these two in the future chapters.)
Immediately, a red flame with weak lightning arcs floated in front of Chen Mo.
The surrounding temperature suddenly rose. Zi Yu Di, who was pretending to be asleep, also raised her head and looked over. Then, she looked at the blood flame in shock.
In the original work, Xiao Yan relied on the Flame Mantra and various medicinal ingredients to absorb the Beast Flame and Heavenly Flame. This was because both the Beast Flame and Heavenly Flame contained an enormous amount of energy that humans couldn't absorb.
Swallowing it into one's body was tantamount to suicide.
However, Chen Mo wasn't afraid. He had a God-Tier Qi Method like the Supreme Primordial Chaos Technique. Moreover, his subconscious was telling him that he could refine this Beast Flame.
Chen Mo didn't hesitate and directly swallowed it. After which, he circulated the Supreme Primordial Chaos Technique and refined it.
Zi Yu Di saw Chen Mo swallow the flame and immediately covered her mouth with her jade-like hand and cried out in surprise.
As time went by, she saw that Chen Mo was fine. Only then did she feel at ease and go to sleep.
...
In the depths of the desert, a huge fortress was located here.
The walls of the fortress were tall and towering. On top of the walls, hundreds of fully armed snake-people were patrolling with sharp spears in their hands.
And in the center of this huge fortress, there was a heavily guarded castle.
In the spacious and luxurious hall of the castle, a beautiful figure was leaning against the back of a chair. Her hand was supporting her forehead, showing her laziness.
Her eyes were tightly shut. Her beautiful face inadvertently revealed a seductive charm like that of a fairy. Her slender white neck revealed an elegant arc.
Her slender waist didn't seem to be large enough to be held. Under that slender waist was a purple snake tail that was filled with wildness.
The snake tail swayed slightly. Her unique charm was undoubtedly displayed.
Such a seductive beauty was enough to make any man drool.
However, if you really dared to get close to her, there was a ninety percent chance that you wouldn't be able to keep your life.
This was because this beauty was the famous Queen Medusa of the Snake-People Tribe.
Suddenly, a gentle breeze blew in from outside the window. A voice sounded outside the door.
"Your Majesty, there are clues about the traitor."
Queen Medusa's eyes suddenly opened.
She walked down from the throne and came to the side of the bed.
On the bed, there was a black robe and a white mask.
...
In the cave, Zi Yu Di's delicate face was slightly distorted. Her beautiful willowy eyebrows were knitted together. Her expression was changing as if she was having a nightmare.
"Stop it!"
"Stop it!"
"No, that's a forbidden space technique. Forcefully using it will lead to serious consequences."
"Stop her! Your Majesty..."
