118: Chapter 118: Medusa: Gu Shenge, you even...

Black-Corner Region.

A ripple of space appeared above the Snake-People City, and a silver space tunnel emerged. Gu Shengge and Medusa walked out and flew into the Snake-People Temple.

Upon landing, Medusa couldn't wait to take out the ice spirit profound coffin and place it on the ground, asking her husband to open the ice coffin and awaken her Snake Sister, who had been frozen for over a decade.

Gu Shengge channeled his Qi into the ice spirit profound coffin. The ice coffin surged with ice-blue light, and the lid slowly opened. A bone-chilling cold mist permeated the air, causing the temperature in the palace to drop significantly, and a thin layer of frost covered the floor and walls.

When the lid was fully opened, it revealed a stunningly beautiful snake-woman whose appearance was identical to Medusa's. The only difference was that the Snake Sister's tail was cyan, and her brows and eyes lacked a bit of Medusa's majesty and cold arrogance, possessing instead a touch more gentleness.

Due to being frozen for over a decade, the Snake Sister's body was covered in a thick layer of frost, but her appearance remained unchanged from over a decade ago, looking like a beauty of frost.

Looking at her Snake Sister whom she hadn't seen for over a decade, Medusa leaned over to the coffin, reached out to touch the Snake Sister's frost-covered cheek, wiped away the frost, and caressed her face.

Although there was absolutely no warmth and it was incomparably cold, it made her feel incredibly real.

Queen Medusa, usually cold and majestic in front of others, broke down on the spot. Her eyes turned red, tears brimmed over, yet a joyful smile appeared on her pretty face as she wept with joy.

Gu Shengge stepped forward to wrap his arm around his Beloved Wife's shoulders, gently patted her shoulder, and pulled Medusa into his embrace to comfort her.

"Leave the rest to me."

The ice spirit profound coffin was, after all, an object of extreme cold. Having been frozen in it for over a decade, the cold energy had entered her body. If no one helped the Snake Sister dispel the cold energy within her, she would not be able to awaken even if she were removed from the ice spirit profound coffin.

To dispel this extreme cold energy, ordinary fire-attribute energy or spiritual objects would not suffice; it had to be an ultimate fire like Heavenly Flame.

Gu Shengge reached out and lifted the Snake Sister from the ice spirit profound coffin. Although she had been frozen for over a decade, she had not frozen into an ice block; she remained as soft as if boneless, her skin cold yet highly elastic, and her slender waist was so delicate it could be held in one hand, even slimmer than Medusa's.

He placed the Snake Sister on the bed, had Medusa support her, and placed his palm lightly on her cold, smooth jade back. His Soul Power enveloped the Snake Sister's delicate body as he slowly channeled his intensely hot Sun Dou Qi into her. Under Gu Shengge's control, it coursed through her limbs and bones, connecting every Meridian in her body, nourishing her internal organs, and dispelling the extreme cold energy within her.

Medusa watched as wisps of white mist emerged from her Snake Sister's body surface and felt her Snake Sister's skin gradually gaining warmth, no longer as cold as before, and was overjoyed.

Under the smelting power of the Sun Dou Qi, the extreme cold energy within the Snake Sister was completely expelled from her body.

During this process, Gu Shengge discovered that the Snake Sister's Meridians were much sturdier than those of a Dou Huang of the same Rank; this could be considered a small compensation for being frozen for over a decade.

A moment later, he withdrew his palm but left a stream of Sun Dou Qi inside the Snake Sister, circulating within her body to provide heat.

Gu Shengge then took out a Fire Lotus Body-Nourishing Pill, a Rank 5 Advanced Medicinal Pill refined from Earth Fire Lotus Seeds, supplemented with a Rank 4 fire-attribute monster core and a variety of precious fire-attribute medicinal herbs.

He had Medusa help her Snake Sister take this Medicinal Pill to nourish her internal organs.

"Beloved Wife, your Snake Sister will need some time before she wakes up. Because she was frozen for over a decade, her cultivation will regress, and upon waking, she will likely only have the cultivation of a Dou Wang or even a Dou Ling..."

Gu Shengge told Medusa about the Snake Sister's condition. He had just checked the Snake Sister's body with his Soul Power; not only would her Qi regress, but her body would also experience a short period of weakness and lack of coordination, though it would be fine after some time.

"Mm, thank you for your hard work, Shengge."

Hearing this, Medusa nodded at Gu Shengge and looked down tenderly at the sister in her arms. As long as she was alive, she didn't care about cultivation regression; at worst, she could just Cultivate it back.

With the current resources of the Snake-People Tribe, let alone regaining the Rank of Dou Huang, even reaching the Rank of Dou Zong would not be a problem.

"Shengge, when my Snake Sister wakes up, why don't you marry her too?"

Gu Shengge had just been about to leave, not wanting to disturb Medusa and her Snake Sister's reunion, but unexpectedly, Medusa suddenly spoke up, leaving him stunned into silence.

Asking him to take her Snake Sister as his wife, this? Did he hear correctly! Was it a trap or for real?

Gu Shengge hesitated for a long time, then looked up at Medusa and her twin Snake Sister in her arms, and asked in a deep voice, "Give me a reason?"

"No reason."

Medusa shook her head. Although she said there was no reason, she actually had selfish motives.

Snakes are extremely sensitive to strange scents, and the Snake-People are the same. She could smell the scents of no fewer than twenty different women on Gu Shengge.

Medusa didn't even need to guess to know that Gu Shengge had cheated countless times during the year he was away.

Moreover, since returning this time, he hadn't consummated the marriage with her. Although Gu Shengge said it was because he was afraid of hurting the child inside her, it still made Medusa feel a bit uneasy.

She had often heard before that the matriarchs of large Families among the Human Race, in order to maintain the relationship between themselves and the head of the Family, would stuff women into their husband's room to demonstrate their magnanimity, which won the husband's favor.

Although she already had two dowry maids as concubines for Gu Shengge, it wasn't enough, so Medusa wanted her own Snake Sister to marry him as well.

Furthermore, it was better to keep the resources within the Family, and since her Snake Sister was saved by him, marrying him was better than marrying those guys outside.

Gu Shengge stared at Medusa for a long time; his burning gaze made her feel a bit guilty, and she turned her head slightly, appearing somewhat angry from embarrassment, and huffed as she questioned him.

"Will you marry her or not?"

"I will, why wouldn't I? Since my Beloved Wife has spoken, why would This Husband refuse?"

Gu Shengge withdrew his gaze and put on a smiling face. Since Medusa had taken the initiative to request it, how could he refuse?

Medusa's Snake Sister, as the protagonist of the anime special, must have a high Rank.

Seeing him agree, Medusa nodded in satisfaction. She looked down at her Snake Sister, who was still sleeping in her arms, gently caressed her face, which was no longer cold but emitting a faint warmth, and softly apologized:

"Snake Sister, don't blame me. I am doing this for your own good. When you marry Shengge, he will surely offer a large dowry for you. Although I don't know if he has the same nine-colored heaven swallowing python origin as I do, as long as it can improve your talent and allow you to reach a higher Realm like me, that will be enough."

She was now a Nine-Colored Sky Swallowing Python, and achieving the Rank of Dou Sheng in the future would not be a problem, but the Snake Sister's innate snake Soul was only a Rank 6 Cyan Nether Flame Python, so her potential was limited.

In order for her Snake Sister to stay by her side for a long time, Medusa didn't mind being selfish for once.
