Chapter 34 - 34: A Sword Across Eras"Ah, this..." Chen Mo looked at Queen Medusa's playful expression and immediately smiled, saying, "Your Majesty is indeed worthy of being called a queen—sharp and intelligent. I am truly impressed." Queen Medusa's face was adorned with a faint smile, her enchanting eyes gazing down at Chen Mo with an almost condescending air. Her crimson lips parted slightly: "Human, do you wish to die?" Looking at Queen Medusa's captivating demeanor, Chen Mo chuckled awkwardly. "O-Of course not. I was just asking, that's all! No need to get angry, no need to get angry..." Queen Medusa snorted coldly, seemingly letting Chen Mo off the hook. However, he then said, "Is it really impossible? Can't we negotiate?" Queen Medusa stared at him coldly. Her piercing gaze sent chills down Chen Mo's spine. "Just joking, just joking," he quickly added, forcing a grin and thinking of an excuse to slip away. But at that moment, Queen Medusa spoke again. "Then why did you stop?" "Ah, this..." He couldn't get anything out of her—not even a drop of blood. If he continued serving her like this, wouldn't it be for nothing? She had beaten him so many times in the past few days, and now, if he kept working for free, wouldn't that be a huge loss? So he said, "I've been at it for so long, my hands are getting sore. I'll continue massaging Your Majesty tomorrow." Queen Medusa cast a sidelong glance at him and asked in a regal, commanding tone, "What do you need my blood essence for?" Hearing this, Chen Mo saw an opportunity and immediately replied, "It's related to my cultivation." "Oh?" Queen Medusa let out a soft hum before closing her mesmerizing eyes. She lay lazily on her throne, like a resting serpent, and said indifferently, "If you can serve me well enough, I might consider giving you a drop." Serve her well? That... sounded a little suggestive. Instinctively, Chen Mo's gaze flickered to the snow-white skin barely concealed beneath her thin robes. His mind momentarily wandered. "Rest assured, Your Majesty. I will serve you thoroughly and to your satisfaction," he said confidently. Now wasn't the time to act recklessly—he had to play it safe. Chen Mo resumed his massage, but this time, he infused a bit of Dou Qi into his technique. He refused to believe that such dedicated service wouldn't earn him at least a sliver of favor. But reality proved otherwise. After another full incense stick's time, he hadn't gained a single point of favor. His plan to win favor and extract benefits had officially failed. "Your Majesty, how do you feel? Comfortable?" Switching techniques, Chen Mo began gently pounding her back. Taking it a step further, he even took the liberty of flipping her over slightly to provide a better massage to her jade-like back. Queen Medusa let out a faint, contented hum but remained silent. "Your Majesty, may I sit while I continue?" Chen Mo had been standing the whole time, bending over to massage her back. After such a long period, he was beginning to feel sore himself. Still, Queen Medusa remained silent, her delicate nose letting out soft breaths as if she were dozing off. Seeing her lack of response, Chen Mo made his own decision—he sat down on the throne. He even attempted to shift her purple serpent tail to make more room for himself. "Hm?" "Human, do you wish to die?" A shiver ran down Queen Medusa's body as she turned her gaze toward him, her expression laced with killing intent. Although she was a serpent-woman, she was still a woman. And one of the unspoken rules was that a woman's legs should never be touched. Queen Medusa might not have had legs yet, but once she evolved, her serpent tail would become her legs. And Chen Mo was currently holding onto them. He immediately let go and awkwardly squeezed out a smile. "Uh... Your tail was taking up too much space, so I-I just wanted to move it a little." Queen Medusa stared him down, her piercing gaze making sweat bead on his forehead. After a long moment, the corners of her lips curled ever so slightly, and she said coldly, "Try that again, and see if I don't kill you." With that, she turned away, continuing to enjoy his service.

Chen Mo raised an eyebrow, suddenly feeling tempted to push his luck and touch Queen Medusa's tail again. But after some thought, he decided it was better to secure the blood essence first. Queen Medusa's slender serpent waist appeared almost delicate, yet beneath its seemingly frail exterior, there was an undeniable suppleness—completely devoid of excess fat. At a glance, it exuded a subtle allure, making one want to run their hands over it. Unfortunately, Chen Mo wasn't bold enough for that. Instead, he continued massaging her back and asked, "Your Majesty, do you feel comfortable?" "Mm." "Since you're feeling comfortable, then about what you mentioned earlier..." Chen Mo grinned. "My shoulders suddenly feel sore," Queen Medusa interrupted. "Let me massage them for you." "My arms feel weak too." "I'll knead them for you." "My neck feels a bit stiff." "Are you sure?" "I'll do it myself." After a full round of massages, Chen Mo was utterly exhausted, panting like a dog. And he hadn't managed to extract even a single drop of benefit. He realized Queen Medusa had been toying with him the entire time. "Your Majesty, can I have it now?" Chen Mo asked. "Since you've performed well, I'll be merciful and grant you a drop." Without turning to face him, Queen Medusa raised her slender wrist. A flash of light appeared at her fingertips, and a jade bottle materialized in her hand. "Close your eyes," she commanded, her voice carrying an undeniable authority. Chen Mo obediently shut his eyes. A few moments later, Queen Medusa handed the jade bottle to him without looking back. In a cold tone, she said, "Take it and get out of my sight." Chen Mo accepted the bottle and took a glance inside. Within it, a single drop of deep-red blood swirled, radiating an intense energy pressure. With a quick word of thanks, he swiftly exited the chamber. Not long after he left, Queen Medusa suddenly coughed, her face turning pale. Her vitality was already weakened, and what she had given him was the purest heart's blood from her body. Though it was only a single drop, it would take her a long time to recover. seaʀᴄh thё nôvelFire.net website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality. Just as she was about to meditate and restore her strength... Knock, knock. "Your Majesty!" It was Chen Mo's voice. Before she could respond, he had already pushed the doors open and stepped inside. "I told you to leave," Queen Medusa said icily, her pale face exuding a chilling aura. Seeing her condition, a trace of guilt surfaced in Chen Mo's heart. He hadn't expected that single drop of blood essence to affect her so severely. But knowing Queen Medusa's personality, he smiled and said, "Your Majesty, I noticed you were looking weak, so I made you a bowl of tonic soup." "I know, I won't overstay my welcome. I'll just leave it here and go." After setting the steaming bowl of soup on the table, Chen Mo quickly left like a gust of wind. As the doors closed behind him, Queen Medusa walked over and looked at the soup. Her exquisite features unknowingly revealed a faint trace of bewitching charm. Then, she picked up the bowl and drank it all in one go. Side Chamber. [Ding! Favorability +2. Obtained 5 Favorability Coins.] Chen Mo rubbed the jade bottle in his hand, momentarily stunned.
