Chapter 101 Maintaining Harmony
Queen Medusa's speech undoubtedly made the scene quiet. The four elders all cast cold glances over. They obviously did not expect Queen Medusa to say such words.

Yao Yan also looked at Queen Medusa with some surprise. He didn't think that his friendship with her was worthy of her speaking for him. Even if she was afraid of his background, she shouldn't be so decisive, unless she wanted to turn against these four old guys.

The chief elder said in a deep voice: "Your Majesty, don't forget that you are the leader of the snake people!"

Queen Medusa snorted coldly and said in a cold voice: "Humph, if you think so, you shouldn't disobey my order!"

The atmosphere was really awkward... Yao Yan couldn't help but sigh as he watched Queen Medusa and the four elders of the Snake Tribe sparring. After the two sides finished arguing, he said calmly, "I am not from the Snake Tribe. The rules of the Snake Tribe cannot restrict me. I am now in the Snake Tribe because of Caidie. If you have any questions, you can raise them now."

His pair of dark eyes swept across the entire scene calmly. Those powerful men with Douhuang-level aura were nothing in his eyes.

Douhuang... is just a bigger ant.

If he really wanted to, exterminating the entire snake tribe would be a matter of a moment. After all, he just didn't want to be a cruel beast. He could kill people, but he wouldn't kill indiscriminately.

As soon as he finished speaking, he took a light step forward. The violent force directly crushed the ground beneath his feet, and cracks spread out.

"…As long as you are not afraid of death."

Compared to Queen Medusa, Yao Yan's tone was more domineering and sharp, and he did not allow for negotiation.

As Yao Yan spoke, the scene suddenly became extremely quiet. The four elders all stared at Yao Yan in surprise. Even Queen Medusa looked at Yao Yan in surprise. She obviously didn't expect the other party to say such decisive words. If the negotiation failed, then the relationship with the snake people would undoubtedly be completely ruined.

Is Yao Yan afraid that the relationship with the snake people will become strained?

He had never taken the snake people seriously, and now he was easing relations with them only for the sake of the snake people's Queen Medusa and the other one.

"Human, you are too arrogant!"

"presumptuous!"

……

As Yao Yan finished speaking, the attitudes of the four elders changed instantly. They glared at Yao Yan and spoke in a deep voice, as if their dignity had been challenged. Those who are high and mighty have always been like this. They can dominate the people below them at will, but they do not allow the people below them to disobey them.

This method might be very effective against the snakemen of the snake tribe, but it is obviously useless against Yao Yan.

"Think about it, do you want me to help you kill these four old guys?"

Yao Yan ignored the other party's expression, looked at Queen Medusa calmly, and spoke softly.

The four elders looked extremely grim, glaring at Yao Yan. They wanted to say something, but were interrupted by Queen Medusa's sneer: "It's not impossible. If these old guys don't know what's good for you, I don't mind replacing a few elders~"

She shrugged her shoulders and said nonchalantly.

Obviously, she didn't care much about the life and death of the four elders.

When the four elders heard Queen Medusa's words, their expressions suddenly changed. They glared at each other and wanted to scold her, but because Yao Yan was present, they held back their words. They could only protest with weak glances, but glances were obviously useless to Queen Medusa.

"Elders, this is the attitude. Whether you like it or not, the final outcome will not change."

Yao Yan smiled, looked at the four elders on the podium, and said calmly.

However, for the four Douhuang-level immortals, if he gave them face and called them elders, and if he didn't give them face, it wouldn't be impossible to bury them. With his alchemy skills, it would not be difficult for him to train several Douhuang-level strongmen for the Snake People in a short period of time.

Queen Medusa also looked at the elders calmly. Regarding this issue involving her own sister, her attitude was the same as Yao Yan's.

"..."

Looking at Yao Yan and Queen Medusa who shared the same hatred for a common enemy, the four elders of the snake people fell silent and looked at each other. For a moment, they didn't know how to respond to each other. According to their ideas, they would give the human alchemist some oppression and force the other party to give some benefits. This would let the matter pass. However, the attitude of the other party and Queen Medusa made them at a loss as to what to do.

It is obviously not possible to fall out with each other.

A sixth-rank alchemist who is less than seventeen years old, with such talent, deserves the respect of the four elders, and they may even let him do whatever he wants. However, how to save face has become a problem. They can't just kneel down and beg for food, right?

"Ahem, we have no ill intentions. If you really... agree with that person, we will support you, as long as Her Majesty the Queen has no objection."

The fourth elder coughed to ease the atmosphere and said with a dry laugh. It was obvious that he was more tactful and did not want to see the relationship between the two sides become too strained. It was mainly because of Queen Medusa's attitude that forced them to think carefully. They could not really start a war within the tribe.

The older you get, the more cowardly your mentality becomes.

This has been the case since ancient times.

"Her Majesty the Queen naturally has no objection."

Yao Yan raised his eyebrows and looked at the charming Queen Medusa beside him. Her perfect figure was enough to make any man stay there.

There was a pause.

He continued, "If the four elders have no objection, then please do not interfere too much with Caidie's freedom in the future."

"The four of us have no ill will towards her, but unfortunately she and Her Majesty the Queen are identical twin sisters, and the two of them have something in common. If you are allowed to be with her... it will inevitably have an impact on Her Majesty the Queen, and this will indirectly lead to the destruction of the snake people..."

The Great Elder was silent for a while, then spoke slowly, his tone old and somewhat heavy.

Yao Yan was stunned when he heard this, and couldn't help but look at Queen Medusa. He understood most of the words of the four elders, but he was a little confused about some of them. What is the commonality of emotions? Could it be that there is also so-called telepathy? !
Thinking of this, he couldn't help but look at Queen Medusa. Her expression did not change at all, she was still cold and arrogant, facing Yao Yan's gaze indifferently.

Queen Medusa naturally would not tell Yao Yan that she and Caidie had a so-called resonance. She stared at the four elders coldly and said coldly: "If you have nothing else to say, this matter ends here!"

The four elders looked at each other. Facing Queen Medusa's forced oppression, the four of them were quite helpless. If it were only Queen Medusa alone, they would naturally dare to oppress her, but there were Hai Bodong and Cai Die outside, plus Yao Yan, a young man with unknown strength and mysterious background, so they naturally had to be cautious and did not dare to be too presumptuous.

Looking at the four elders who remained silent, Queen Medusa gave Yao Yan a look, then twisted her waist, swung her enchanting purple snake tail, and walked out of the underground palace with Yao Yan.

She was not surprised by the four elders' fear of harm, because these four old guys have always been so weak and incompetent.

Watching the two leave.

The four elders looked at each other and felt helpless. They wanted to force him too much, but Queen Medusa was on Yao Yan's side. Yao Yan himself was not the kind of person who was easy to bully, so they felt they had no idea where to start. They could only let Queen Medusa take Yao Yan away.

"I don't know whether it is a blessing or a curse." The second elder of the snake people was silent for a long time, until Yao Yan and Queen Medusa walked out of the underground palace, then he spoke slowly in an old tone with a little helplessness.

There are two Medusa queens in this generation, and they are identical twins. What's more, they have unique senses, which obviously makes them unsuitable to be a qualified queen. Once the feelings of one of them affect the other, it will be a devastating blow to the snake people.

This is why they forced Queen Medusa to execute the other.

But now everything has changed, and no one knows what consequences will be caused by the appearance of Yao Yan, a special human alchemist.

The Great Elder closed his eyes and pondered for a long time, then said in a serious tone: "Her Majesty the Queen has a tough attitude, so we can only wait and see. If it really causes a bad impact on the Snake People, I will take action!"

"That's it for now."

The fourth elder spoke slowly. He had the calmest expression and did not care about the final result.

The others also remained silent after hearing this.

There was one thing that Queen Medusa said that was not wrong. The four of them were indeed quite old, and therefore, they would carefully consider any decision they made, rather than making it hastily.

……

Walk out of the snake people’s palace.

Yao Yan looked at Queen Medusa who was leading the group and said softly, "Thank you, I didn't expect you to speak for us."

"She's my sister!"

Queen Medusa glanced at Yao Yan with her cold purple eyes and said in a flat voice that what she could sacrifice and what she could do for her sister was obviously far beyond Yao Yan's imagination.

Yao Yan nodded, and then slowly said: "I have found the whereabouts of the Azure Lotus Earth Core Fire from the incomplete map. I need a large amount of Ice Spirit Cold Spring to reduce the power of the Azure Lotus Earth Core Fire and refine it!"

After a month of polishing, his Dou Qi is already strong enough to continue to break through. He only needs to take a few breakthrough pills, and he will be able to successfully break through to the Dou Ling level. After polishing for a period of time, he can start to refine the Green Lotus Earth Core Fire, and finally devour it, and promote the Burning Decree to the advanced Xuan level.

By then, his strength will surely advance by leaps and bounds again, and he may even reach the peak of Dou Ling.

In this regard.

Yao Yan wanted to save this opportunity for his breakthrough to Dou Wang level. The benefits brought by the advancement of Burning Decree would be enough to allow him to break through to Dou Wang level instantly without any sequelae.

"you sure?"

Upon hearing this, Queen Medusa looked at Yao Yan with her cold and beautiful eyes and said in a deep voice.

She was not unfamiliar with strange fire, but she was still quite surprised that Yao Yan got the whereabouts of strange fire so easily. Given the peculiarity of strange fire, there would not be too many in the entire Douqi Continent. How did Yao Yan know the whereabouts of the Qinglian Earth Core Fire? Could it be that he really just relied on a fragmentary map?
Queen Medusa was obviously quite curious about this.

"There's no need to lie to you. Once you see me, you'll know I'm not a liar."

Yao Yan said frankly that he was well aware of Queen Medusa's suspicion, so his attitude was quite sincere. He would maintain this attitude until he had enough strength. It was awesome to be able to show off if you had the strength, but if you didn't have the strength to show off, you would just be an idiot.

Queen Medusa nodded without questioning anything, and said, "As long as you fulfill the promise you made to me!"

"Of course, once I refine the strange fire, I will naturally fulfill our agreement."

Yao Yan nodded and said.

"Sometimes, I really suspect that you are a liar!"

Queen Medusa paused and spoke in a serious tone. It was obvious that she did not have much trust in Yao Yan. Not everyone was as love-minded as Caidie and had full trust in Yao Yan.

"Whether he is a liar or not, you will know it in the future."

Yao Yan smiled and said calmly.

Then he continued, "I already know the whereabouts of the Azure Lotus Earth Core Fire. I plan to take Hai Bodong and you to accompany me to the location of the Azure Lotus Earth Core Fire. With your strength, it should be enough to help me refine the Azure Lotus Earth Core Fire. If you still fail, I can only blame my bad luck."

"With the Ice Spirit Cold Spring, you can't die!"

Queen Medusa obviously didn't buy Yao Yan's words and spoke indifferently. She was obviously aware of the restraint of Ice Spirit Cold Spring on strange fire. It was unparalleled in protecting the body, especially for strange fire with fire attribute like Green Lotus Earth Core Fire, which it perfectly restrained.

"Hard to say."

Yao Yan shook his head, threw out a few words in an ambiguous tone, and then pretended to be pitiful and said: "Where is Caidie? Before I leave, I plan to go see her."

"You are not dead yet."

Queen Medusa glanced at Yao Yan who was about to play dead, and said in a deep voice that she obviously didn't want to see her sister being intimate with Yao Yan, and that would not be a good thing for her.

"Can't we chat?"

Yao Yan frowned and said in a deep voice.

"can."

Queen Medusa said this in a stern voice, and then led the way in front without saying a word. She seemed unwilling to talk too much nonsense with Yao Yan, and even more unwilling to have anything to do with Yao Yan. However, the disguise on the outside obviously could not cover up the fluctuations in her heart. When she saw Yao Yan and Caidie together, her heart was finally a little moved.

Yao Yan kneaded Caidie's little hand as if no one was around, then turned to look at his sister-in-law: "Can Caidie move freely now?"

"It's best not to leave the Serpent People's Palace!"

Queen Medusa warned coldly. She was not willing to break off completely with Yao Yan, but she also did not want to see Yao Yan being too presumptuous.

"it is good."

Yao Yan nodded and looked at Yingxia. He was also unwilling to break off relations with the Snake People. At least for now, there was no benefit in breaking off relations with the Snake People. To put it another way, the Snake People were also his mother's family.
