Chapter 163: The Tree of Origin Shows Its Power! Medusa Awakens!
"Since that's the case, let's sign a contract to avoid leaving everything as empty words."
Xiao Ze said calmly, and the Great Elder nodded hastily.
Compared to the previous twists, this request was nothing.
Besides, she had no intention of breaking her word.
Doubting a seventh-level alchemist would be madness, and few in the Dou Qi continent would dare to do so.
Common forces would be delighted to have a good relationship with a seventh-level alchemist.
After all, a seventh-level alchemist with an established reputation has incredibly powerful connections.
Even in the vast and powerful central region of the continent, a seventh-level alchemist would be sought after by many forces.
A mere call from a seventh-level alchemist could attract countless powerful Dou Zong willing to serve them.
With such influence, the human snakes wouldn't dare provoke him.
Precisely for this reason, the Great Elder and the Second Elder were so concerned.
Once agreed with Xiao Ze, they would have to fulfill it.
Otherwise, they would bring disaster to their tribe, as they wouldn't dare make an enemy of a seventh-level alchemist.
The Great Elder handed the written contract to Xiao Ze, with her soul mark.
Xiao Ze passed his hand over the parchment, leaving his soul mark on it.
"Good, let's go to your treasure trove to select some useful herbs to eliminate the exotic flame's energy, and then use the Resurrection Pill to maximize its effect."
Xiao Ze put away the contract and addressed the Great Elder and the Second Elder.
"Sir, I will take you. Second Elder, stay here to watch over the leader."
In the human snakes' treasure room, Xiao Ze selected about ten herbs.
He used his spiritual perception to inspect them and then shook his head.
"Your so-called treasures aren't very abundant. I'll have to use another ten herbs from my own supply."
Xiao Ze said resignedly, while the Great Elder smiled awkwardly.
Back at the secret place, Xiao Ze had the two elders leave so they wouldn't interrupt his alchemy.
The two looked at each other and went out, anxiously waiting outside the door, listening attentively.
Although the leader was in a pitiful state, no one would want to take advantage of her, but they still feared any eventuality.
Xiao Ze noticed their actions but paid them no mind. He took out the Spirit Cauldron and prepared the herbs.
Finally, a dark blue icy liquid appeared in his palm.
"This can expel the exotic flame's energy from Queen Medusa's body to a single spot, making it easier to treat."
Xiao Ze approached the ice coffin and uncovered it.
With his spiritual perception, he covered Queen Medusa with the dark blue liquid, leaving only her left hand uncovered.
Over time, Xiao Ze felt the exotic flame's energy moving towards the left hand.
"Fortunately, the residual flame energy isn't too powerful, or I would need a more valuable liquid to expel it."
After almost an hour, Xiao Ze withdrew his hand from Queen Medusa.
With his spiritual perception, he sensed all the exotic flame's energy concentrated in the left hand.
With a thought, a golden root appeared and pierced Queen Medusa's left hand.
With common methods, it would be difficult to expel the flame's energy, but Xiao Ze's Tree of Origin could do it.
The golden root quickly absorbed the flame's energy.
After a few seconds, Xiao Ze withdrew the golden root.
He covered the wound with water energy to stop the bleeding.
Seeing the hole in Queen Medusa's hand, Xiao Ze was glad he had used the liquid to concentrate the flame's energy.
Otherwise, Queen Medusa would be full of holes.
"Now, the Resurrection Pill..."
Xiao Ze took out the Resurrection Pill and placed it on Queen Medusa's lips.
He used his spiritual energy to guide the pill's power into her body.
Although the pill could work on its own, that would take too long.
The Great Elder and the Second Elder, outside, didn't hear anything unusual, which reassured them.
Xiao Ze's powerful spiritual energy guided the medicine inside Queen Medusa's body, healing her wounds.
Over time, the internal wounds healed.
Xiao Ze directed the remaining energy to restore Queen Medusa's appearance.
Under the Resurrection Pill's effect, Queen Medusa shed her burned skin, revealing smooth, white skin.
As Xiao Ze admired her, he noticed a cold gaze.
Xiao Ze's cloak didn't completely cover his face, and Queen Medusa could see him.
"Do you like what you see?"
"Compared to before, yes, it's pretty."
Xiao Ze shrugged, withdrawing his spiritual energy.
Queen Medusa, aware of the situation, didn't attack Xiao Ze.
"Was it you who saved me?"
Queen Medusa sat up, using the medicine's energy to heal.
Her hair quickly grew, covering her body.
Queen Medusa was confused; the person who defeated her now saved her.
The two elders burst in, but Queen Medusa told them, "Elders, don't come in. I want to speak with him alone."
"Don't you have anything to say?"
Queen Medusa smiled seductively, leaning on the coffin's edge.
"I'm curious, why did you save me when we fought before?"
"Obviously, for you... and your tribe."
Xiao Ze coughed and showed the signed contract.
Queen Medusa tensed, thinking Xiao Ze had saved her because of her allure, but she was wrong.
'That explains why this old immortal is immune to my natural charms.'
"Leave, I need to get dressed."
Queen Medusa said coldly.
Xiao Ze shrugged and left, making Queen Medusa grip the coffin's edge.
Did her natural charm not work? Or was this old immortal used to beauty?
But if he wasn't interested in women, why did he look at her that way before?
Queen Medusa shook her head and formed a purple robe with her energy.
As a strong Dou Huang, she mastered energy manipulation.
"Signing that contract, what a hassle..."
Queen Medusa knew Xiao Ze took the contract seriously, which meant he trusted the tribe to fulfill it.
The fact that Xiao Ze could save her already demonstrated his skill.
"Do I really have to be his bodyguard for three years?"
"Maybe I'm overthinking it, I still have to evolve successfully."
