Xiao Yaire body suddenly stiffened, and although he wao make a sound, his sealed mouth allowed only muffled "mmm mmm" o escape.

  Medusa's seemingly boneless, jade-like hands pinned his arms firmly, and no matter how much strength he exerted, he could not move them an inch.

  Although his physical strength was formidable, he was no matedusa, and he could not break free from her restraint at all!

  Xiao Yan stared wide-eyed at the entiy before him. In Medusa's eyes, aside from the bllow from the fire poison, there ecial kind of light hidden deep within.

  This caused his heart to tightehought to himself, 'The Falle Fme gee Heart Fmes within one's heart, drawing out the deepest hidden desires. But Medusa is a magical beast, and moreover, she has evolved into the Seven-Colored Heaven Swallowing Python using a Heavenly Fme. How could she be affected by such a small amount of Heavenly Fme energy?'

  This was only the seventh floor; even Zi Yan and Liu Qing experieno issues, while Lin Yan, at the Dou Spirit realm, had only begun feeling the fire poison after more than two months of closed-door cultivation.

  Although Medusa had absorbed a massive amount of Heavenly Fme energy, it had only been a little over ten days, and logically speaking, she should not be exhibiting such a dition!

  It might be possible if they were oenth floor, where the Falle Fme's essence could ignite desires from within; but sihey were only on the seventh floor, this should not be happening no matter how he thought about it.

  Xiao Yan looked at Medusa before him. She was wild and domineering like a beast, as if she could not wait to devour him whole.

  'Fuck, could it be... the Ten Thousa Fme!!!'

  Xiao Yan suddenly recalled the first time he saw Medusa. Back then, he had infiltrated the pace, and just by seeing her veiled figure from behind, a surge of evil fire rose within him, as if his soul were hooked by her, and the most primal desire for procreation suddenly surged.

  Only now did he uand why that had happened. Medusa's bedchamber tained her snake poison! That snake poison was a Beast Teique rooted in her bloodline.

  Medusa's snake poison possessed the effect of arousing primal desires!

  Furthermore, the Ten Thousa Fme could activate and strengthen magical beasts' bloodlirength. It was the iance fme of magical beasts, and iaurally involved reprodu!

  The Falle Fme already had the ability to evoke the hidden desires within one's heart. Coupled with Medusa's special bloodlialent as a member of the Snake-People Tribe and further enhanced by the stimution from the Ten Thousa Fme, it caused Medusa to lose trol, or rather, to go into heat!

  "Wake up!"

  At this point, he was truly afraid that in her moment of lost rationality, she might go all the way!

  Xiao Yan's eyes sharpened. He could not afford to enjoy this sudden bliss any longer.

  He shouted inwardly as his Spiritual Strength surged instantly: 'Asura Soul Reaping Teique, Soul Chase, Shock!'

  Boom!

  A burst of spiritual vibration caused Medusa's body to shudder, and her enting eyes gradually regained crity.

  Her gaze cleared as she regained her senses. At the sight of Xiao Yan's face, a hint of panic fshed in her eyes.

  The two of them stared wide-eyed at each other for two seds.

  Xiao Yan awkwardly chuckled and began, "You—"

  SLAP!

  A sp came flying over, directly stunning Xiao Yan. Was this his fault? Was he in the wrong? Why was he the one being spped? Clearly, he was the one who suffered the loss!

  "Why did you hit me!" Xiao Yan excimed angrily.

  Before he could get another look at the snow-white body before him, everything spun, and as the door of the cultivation room ushed open, Medusa threw him out.

  Thud!

  Xiao Yao the ground, momentarily uo react. He sat there in a daze, his mind uo process what had just happened.

  "…"

  "What did I d?"

  "Why am I the oing hurt?"

  Ihe cultivation room, Medusa ed her sail around her body. Her whole body was burning hot, and her eyes seemed fused and panicked.

  She touched the fresh blood on her lips. The ses from just moments ago flooded her mind, and besides the panid fusion in her gaze, there was also a deeply hidden trace of joy.

  Xiao Yan wasn't wrong. The effeedusa's snake poison recisely to ighe fmes of passioween men and women. Because Xiao Yan had used the Ten Thousa Fme to dense her physical body, coupled with the fire poison from the Falle Fme, and with Xiao Yan, such a grown man, standing right o her, it caused the always chaste Medusa to lose trol.

  Medusa was the Queen of the Snake-People Tribe. She had always devoted herself to cultivation and to waging wars to protect her people. Naturally, she had always remained chaste.

  "Why did this happen..." Medusa's eyes turned cold. She fiercely bit the tip of her tongue, and the sharp pain pletely sobered her up. She still had a mission to plete; she couldn't indulge in these amorous affairs.

  A moment ter, Medusa, now fully dressed, opehe stone door. She grabbed the dazed Xiao Yan by the colr with one hand and pulled him bato the cultivation room.

  After being pulled in, Xiao Yan stood trembling in the er, stuttering, "Y-you... y-you... don't e any closer! I'll call for help."

  Though he said this, deep dowually felt a tiny bit of anticipation!

  Xiao Yan was twenty years old after all. Even in his previous life, he had never experienced such things. His retionship with Xun Er was still at the stage of youthful innoce, with no further development.

  He could swear by the Heavenly Fmes that it was just a little bit, absolutely nothing more.

  Seeing Xiao Yan looking like a mb awaiting sughter, Medusa's eyes filled with icy killing i as she stared straight at him.

  "Do you have a death wish!"

  Xiao Yan sehe genuine murderous aura and stopped pretending. He straightened up and smiled, "You've regained your senses?"

  Medusa's eyes were cold. She did not directly answer Xiao Yan's question but instead responded with one of her own: " we switch to using the Green Lotus Core Fme for the refi?"

  Realization dawned on Xiao Yan. Hearing her words firmed his specution: it was indeed because of the Ten Thousa Fme.

  'Tsk tsk, truly worthy of being the magical beasts' iance Heavenly Fme; it siders every aspect, even enhang reprodu. Impressive,' Xiao Yan thought to himself.

  In fact, records about Heavenly Fmes were extremely scarce. Even the Heavenly Fme Rankings tained only a few brief lines. Only those who possessed them would know the mysterious abilities eae had.

  Xiao Yan actually nodded, muedusa's surprise.

  He thought for a moment before saying early, "It's possible. inally, that method of refining a body with Heavenly Fmes just required three kinds of Heavenly Fmes; it doesn't necessarily have to be the Ten Thousa Fme."

  "The reason we chose the Ten Thousa Fme was that during the process of refining your Heavenly Fme body, its power could help stimute the bloodlirength of your Seven-Colored Heaven Swallowing Python, allowing your bloodlirength to further merge with your soul and flesh, thus strengthening it."

  "densing the physical body doesn't require a specific Heavenly Fme."

  Xiao Yan's expnation sounded very reasonable, but Medusa slightly furrowed her elegant brows, a hint of hesitation on her face.

  She khat Xiao Yan wasn't lying. The reason she had lost her rationality just norecisely because her body, relying on the power of the Heavenly Fme, had recovered to Rank 6.

  It recisely because her body had recovered to Rank 6 that she entered maturity. With her body now mature, coupled with the fire poison of the Falle Fme, it had led to the ret i.

  This proved that the Ten Thousa Fme was effective. It had made the snake poison in her body strohan ever before, to the point that she herself oisoned by it.

  "No need. Let's tinue using the Ten Thousa Fme," Medusa said as she slowly shook her head. The effects of the Ten Thousa Fme were something she was unwilling to give up. If her body tio be strengthened by it, by the time it was plete, she would definitely surpass all previous Medusas.

  Xiao Yan coughed lightly and g the entiy before him, "You don't o worry so much. I'm now a 6th-tier alchemist after all. I coedial liquid. When using the Ten Thousa Fme to dense your body, you soak in it to help stabilize your mind."

  A strange light fshed in Medusa's eyes. She hadn't expected that Xiao Yan, instead of taking advantage while she lost rationality, would be willing to refine medial liquid for her. This made her feel somewhat incredulous.

  Could there really be a man who could resist her charm?!

  Seeing Medusa's surprised expression, Xiao Yan rubbed his hands together and grinned, "Of course, if you feel ied, you could give me some of your poison; that would be great."

  Medusa's poison possessed the effect of igniting desires in people's hearts. If it could be used for alchemy, it would be a miraculous pill that tless men would pay fortunes for.

  Just as Medusa was still puzzled about why Xiao Yan wanted her poison, a voice came from outside the door.

  "Hey, Xiao Yan, why aren't you ing out yet?" Zi Yan called.

  After all, this was Zi Yan's cultivation room. She had only lent it to Xiao Ya was vat, and now, it had beey days.

  Medusa slipped into the Green Lotus with a fsh of green light and was stored ie ring. Xiao Yan took out his Fire Crystal Card, tapped it, and then pushed opeone door.

  "Sorry, sorry, I lost track of time," Xiao Yan said with a smile.

  "It's fine. Just help me refihese medial ingredients." Zi Yan revealed her adorable little tiger teeth and smiled as she took out five extremely high-quality medial ingredients and hahem to Xiao Yan.

  Xiao Yan was slightly surprised as he looked at the five high-quality medial ingredients before him. "You got quite a haul this time. There are so many!"

  Zi Yan giggled and said, "I only found three in the forest myself. The other two medial ingredients I took from the Inner Academy's Medial Warehouse. The energy from just three ingredients wasn't enough."

  "'Took'?" Xiao Yan raised an eyebrow at the word.

  "Tell me where you 'took' them from; I'd like to go 'take' some too," Xiao Yan said as he stared into Zi Yan's eyes.

  Zi Ya somewhat guilty under his gaze and sheepishly replied, "Well... you probably 't take any. You o be able to pass through the protective barrier to get them."

  Isn't that just stealing! How is that 'taking'!!
