Chương 116: Chapter 116: Medusa
Under the night sky.
A shadowy figure silently appeared at the edge of the horizon. The shadow grew larger with a few flickers and arrived before one's eyes in an instant. This figure moved in the night sky in such a way that it seemed like teleportation, giving an eerie, ghostly impression.
Upon drawing closer, it became apparent that this figure belonged to an extremely beautiful and voluptuous woman. She was dressed in a purple silk robe, wore a crown, and exuded the aura of someone who had long been in a position of power. A noble, dignified, and domineering presence naturally emanated from her. A single glance was enough for anyone to recognize her as a cold and aloof queen.
She advanced silently in the night, as if navigating through space. Each flicker caused a slight distortion in the space around her, yet she made no sound, as if air resistance did not exist for her. She moved at incredible speed, crossing from one end of the sky to the other in just a few flashes.
Suddenly, she paused for a moment and stopped. Beneath her purple embroidered robe, a segment of a purple snake tail was slightly exposed, swaying gently and exuding a peculiar allure. Her narrow phoenix eyes suddenly looked forward; from the horizon, a faint trace of extremely intense energy seemed to be radiating.
"Such an aura... Is it a Heavenly Flame?" A rare glimmer of joy flashed across the woman's cold and noble face. Heaven knows how much time and effort she had spent throughout the years searching for a Heavenly Flame.
Swish!
With a move of her body, the space around her gently distorted, and her figure disappeared without a trace.
...
On a sand dune, a fire flickered, slightly dispelling the chill of the night. Wei Yang sat on a large stone chair, leaning against its back, hands resting on the armrests, with his fingers tapping lightly. In front of him was a jade table, upon which a small red clay stove quietly burned, a bronze kettle steaming atop it. Teapots and teacups were all in place. Two cups of hot tea were placed on either side of the table, wisps of white mist curling from their mouths.
Xiao Yan sat cross-legged across the table, sitting on a mat. Not far away lay an unconscious and voluptuous snake woman, indifferent to her surroundings. In the faint moonlight, her body outlined an alluring curve.
"Tsk, this tea is quite good, where did you get it?" Xiao Yan tasted a sip and smacked his lips, savoring it as he asked.
"The Mittel Auction House." Wei Yang looked at him with some surprise, wondering when this man, who usually gulped down tea like a cow chewing peonies, learned to savor tea.
"I'll get some from them later too." Xiao Yan nodded.
"If you're a VIP, they'll give you a few pounds for free. But... heh heh, not until you become a fourth-tier alchemist." Wei Yang said.
"Uh, okay then." Xiao Yan shook his head. He still had a way to go before reaching the fourth tier. However, once he refined the Green Lotus Core Flame, he should be closer.
"We're just waiting here? Will Queen Medusa really come?" Xiao Yan's gaze turned towards the direction of the snake tribe's core city.
"She's already here!" Wei Yang suddenly raised his head, his eyes under the cloak fixing on a certain spot in the night sky.
"Already here?" Xiao Yan was taken aback and almost jumped up. He quickly turned, following Wei Yang's gaze.
But there, it was empty, silent, nothing was there. At this moment, Yao Lao's voice rang in Xiao Yan's mind, "The person is very strong; be careful, and stay close to Wei Xiaoyang. Don't move around. If you are attacked suddenly, I might not be able to attach myself to you in time."
"Understood!" Xiao Yan replied solemnly in his mind.
...
"Queen Medusa, since you're here, why not show yourself?" Wei Yang's gaze fixed on that piece of night sky. Xiao Yan also stared intently. At this moment, there was finally some movement.
The space there suddenly twisted bizarrely. Seeing this scene, the look in Wei Yang's eyes, hidden under the cloak, slightly fluctuated. Xiao Yan was even more startled, subconsciously taking a small step back, then looked solemnly at the bizarrely twisting space.
In the night sky, the faint moonlight sprinkled down, illuminating the twisting space. In the next moment, a graceful figure appeared slowly under the gaze of the two.
This beautiful woman, who appeared abruptly, was dressed in a luxurious purple embroidered robe. Beneath the robe, her figure was voluptuous and delicate, like a ripe peach, exuding a subtle charm. Wearing a crown, her long dark hair cascaded down her shoulders, reaching down past her slender waist. As the breeze blew, the tips of her hair gently swayed, lightly brushing against her curvy hips. Beneath the robe, a segment of a purple snake tail was lazily swaying, exuding a wild, seductive allure that inexplicably caused a sense of heat throughout one's body.
Wei Yang's gaze swept over that nearly perfect figure, finally resting on that beautiful face. A sense of amazement surfaced in his heart. He felt as if a fierce tremor shook his heartstrings.
There was no denying that she was indeed an incredibly beautiful and charming woman! The first feeling she gave was one of unparalleled splendor; it was hard to describe her beauty with just one word. This beauty was hard to ignore. Any normal man would find it difficult not to be moved. No wonder her popularity was so high! Having now seen this woman with his own eyes, Wei Yang finally truly understood why she was called Medusa—she truly was beautiful!
In the desert, many people would say that Queen Medusa's beauty was on par with her fearsome reputation. This had been confirmed by public opinion. Wei Yang had to admit he too was deeply astonished.
But it was only astonishment.
...
"So this is the famous Queen Medusa, whose infamy has terrified the surrounding empires?" Beside him, Xiao Yan was equally shocked; he exhaled lightly, mumbling in his heart.
The woman before him was best described with the word "alluring," yet there was also a trace of regal nobility beneath that allure, making her very captivating. For men, she could indeed stir a hidden urge for conquest. However, Xiao Yan was quite self-aware, and his mind had no other thoughts at the moment.
Just joking, this was the infamous Medusa!
His gaze briefly glanced at Yue Mei who was lying unconscious on the side. Compared with Medusa before him, the woman who had once left him quite astounded now seemed somewhat dimmer in comparison.
