"You know where Bi Ling is? Did you abduct her?!"
Queen Medusa gritted her pearly teeth, an extreme chill flowing in her beautiful eyes.
If Jun Xiaoyao had truly abducted her, even if she had to defy the world, she would make Jun Xiaoyao understand what it meant to live a life worse than death.
"The Divine Child disdains such methods. Rest assured, she is fine," Jun Xiaoyao said.
At this moment, everyone present, whether Ancient Road Prodigies or Snake-Human Race members, was utterly astonished.
This was because Jun Xiaoyao and Queen Medusa were indeed too close at the moment.
On the Snake-Human Race side, General Lei She and others felt their minds buzzing.
Noticing the commotion around them, Queen Medusa also came back to her senses. She had simply been momentarily lost in thought upon hearing news of Bi Ling.
"Can you let go?" Queen Medusa said coldly.
"Of course. Everything can be discussed. The Divine Child also doesn't want to completely annihilate the Snake-Human Race; that would be too cruel and against the harmony of Dao," Jun Xiaoyao released Queen Medusa.
He knew that Bi Ling was the best bargaining chip.
However, if anyone familiar with Jun Xiaoyao heard these words, they would surely scoff.
Hadn't Jun Xiaoyao annihilated enough major factions and races?
As they separated, the atmosphere temporarily calmed down.
Queen Medusa's face still held a blush from her previous anger and shame, adding a touch of feminine allure to her cold and beautiful face.
But her gaze towards Jun Xiaoyao remained very cold.
"Brat, how dare you profane Her Majesty the Queen? Die!" General Lei She couldn't help but move to attack.
"Stop!" Queen Medusa coldly rebuked.
General Lei She's body stiffened, somewhat bewildered, and a look of unwilling resentment appeared on his face.
Queen Medusa was actually rebuking him, a General, for an outsider who had just profaned her.
"Where is Bi Ling?" Queen Medusa asked.
Jun Xiaoyao smiled faintly. A green shadow flashed from his chest; it was a small green snake. With a flash of its body, it transformed into a pretty young girl—it was Bi Ling.
"Mother…"
Seeing Queen Medusa, Bi Ling showed extreme joy and rushed into her arms.
Jun Xiaoyao did not stop this scene.
He knew that with Bi Ling present, Queen Medusa would not possibly attack him.
Nor would Bi Ling allow Queen Medusa to harm him.
"This…"
This sudden turn of events astonished many people, who hadn't expected such a change in the situation.
However, upon remembering that Jun Xiaoyao had indeed withstood Queen Medusa's three moves, everyone felt an endless admiration in their hearts.
Mo Jinyu and Saint Hongyi, among others, were even more incredulous.
"Bi Ling, are you alright?" Queen Medusa stroked Bi Ling's head, her originally cold, domineering Phoenix eyes now filled with a touch of warmth.
"Bi Ling is fine. It's all thanks to Young Master that I could safely see Mother," Bi Ling said with a joyful giggle.
Then, she briefly recounted some of the events that had transpired to Queen Medusa.
When she heard that Jun Xiaoyao, after acquiring Bi Ling, had not only not harmed her but had even taken care of her.
Queen Medusa's gaze towards Jun Xiaoyao also lost some of its coldness.
"Although you are very annoying, but… thank you for saving Bi Ling," Queen Medusa said haughtily.
Jun Xiaoyao then said, "Queen Medusa, what I want is not just a thank you. Did I win the three-move agreement just now?"
Hearing this, Queen Medusa's expression showed a hint of hesitation.
"Do you really want this Queen to be your servant?"
"Uh…"
Jun Xiaoyao was also slightly taken aback.
Shouldn't the focus be on him wanting to enter the Tai'e Divine Temple?
"That is secondary. In addition, we might be able to discuss some things that could be helpful to the Snake-Human Race," Jun Xiaoyao said.
Upon hearing this, Queen Medusa pondered for a moment, entrusted Bi Ling to Green Snake General for safekeeping, and then waved her jade hand.
Intertwining magical power runes formed a secluded space.
Only Queen Medusa and Jun Xiaoyao were inside.
"What… what's going on?"
"Could the Jun Family Divine Child be trying to persuade Queen Medusa?"
All the Prodigies outside were astonished.
"Her Majesty the Queen has ordered us to temporarily halt the Myriad Snakes Covering the World Grand Array and to discuss it later," Green Snake General said.
"How could this be? That brat actually managed to make Her Majesty the Queen change her mind." General Lei She felt extremely displeased.
Vaguely, there was even a hint of jealousy.
Because in the Snake-Human Race, besides Queen Medusa, he had the highest cultivation.
If Queen Medusa were to seek to procreate in the future, he would be the only best candidate.
As for Bi Ling, though called Queen Medusa's daughter, she was not actually born of her.
General Lei She, though he dared not profane Queen Medusa, secretly harbored such thoughts.
Now, seeing Queen Medusa having such interaction with another Human Race male, he was naturally unhappy.
At this moment, within the secluded space.
Queen Medusa's gaze was cold as she looked at Jun Xiaoyao and said, "Speak your mind. This Queen's patience is limited."
Jun Xiaoyao stood with his hands behind his back and said, "You desire the Opportunity within the Tai'e Divine Temple, no doubt to lift the entire Snake-Human Race out of its current miserable plight."
"But have you considered, what if there is no Opportunity within the Tai'e Divine Temple that can transform your Snake-Human Race?"
"When the Ancient Road Enforcers arrive then, your Snake-Human Race will all be finished."
Jun Xiaoyao's words caused Queen Medusa's expression to stiffen.
Indeed.
The Ancient Road Enforcers all possessed cultivation above the Supreme Realm.
Annihilating their Snake-Human Race would not be too difficult.
Queen Medusa had truly gone all-in this time, gambling everything on the Tai'e Divine Temple.
If she lost, the outcome would naturally be the extermination of her race.
"If the Divine Child gives you an Opportunity that allows the Snake-Human Race to live in peace one hundred percent, and also receive abundant resources, would you be willing?" Jun Xiaoyao smiled.
"What? You can do that?" Queen Medusa was also startled.
Wasn't this what she had always dreamed of—allowing the Snake-Human Race to develop stably, without being constantly bullied and hunted as they were now?
"It's simple: submit to me!"
Jun Xiaoyao flicked his sleeve, his gaze condescending, looking down at Queen Medusa.
