BTTH: From Genius to Invincible

Chapter 190: Queen Medusa Reappears



Just as Yun Shan's attack was about to land, terrifying strands of green lotus flames suddenly surged from the Green Colored Lotus Platform.

The horrifying high temperature unleashed by the eruption of the Green Lotus Core Flame instantly swept away Yun Shan's Dou Technique. The appearance of the green flames startled Nalan Yanran, causing her to swiftly leap back several dozen meters.

Fortunately, she was not the target of these terrifying flames; otherwise, just these green flames alone could have burned her to death.

"What kind of flame is this? Such intense heat!"

"Why do I feel that this flame is even more terrifying than Xiao Yan's red Heavenly Flame?"

Gu He's expression changed dramatically when he saw the green lotus platform and the eruption of green flames. He murmured to himself, "This green flame and that lotus platform... Could it be the Green Lotus Core Flame?!"

A thunderous boom rang out. Yun Shan's cloud-mist giant hand was instantly incinerated by the Green Lotus Core Flame. Then, a graceful silhouette faintly emerged within the green flames.

Before everyone could recover their senses, they saw a woman step out from the green flames. She took a step and landed upon the green lotus. There was a soft whoosh of flame as her jade-like feet touched the lotus platform, and the green flames slowly receded back into the lotus platform.

As the flames withdrew, Queen Medusa appeared, dressed in an exquisite purple-red gown. Her jade-like feet lightly stepped upon the empty space, and her black-colored hair was so beautiful, so transcendent, like a celestial maiden gracing the world. For a moment, many were entranced, gazing upon her in rapture.

Xiao Yan had long anticipated that he might need Queen Medusa's assistance one day. Therefore, he had previously asked Ya Fei at the Miteer Auction House to select a loose, exquisite, and luxurious long dress for this merciless queen.

Of course, the look on Ya Fei's face when she heard that Xiao Yan wanted a woman's dress was quite a spectacle.

"Old geezer, you can get lost now."

An enchanting yet icy voice that could almost make men's bones go soft slowly echoed across the square. Instantly, those with slightly weaker willpower felt their faces flush as red as sunset clouds.

It was as if Queen Medusa's voice itself carried a mesmerizing allure.

Even though Queen Medusa was wearing loose-fitting clothes at this moment, it still couldn't conceal her shapely figure and perky bottom. Her curvaceous and alluring body was like a peach ripened to perfection, constantly emitting an enticing charm that made people's hearts burn with passion.

Her original snake tail had somehow transformed into two slender, fair human legs. Her snow-white feet hovered half an inch above the ground, crystal clear and untainted by dust.

Although her original body had been destroyed by the Green Lotus Core Flame, relying on the nourishment from the Green Lotus over the past few months and the nurturing effects of the Ten Thousand Beast Green Lotus Pills refined by Xiao Yan, she had at least stabilized her ability to transform into human form.

Countless gazes followed the source of the voice, and when they saw the alluring and enchanting woman standing beside Xiao Yan, they couldn't help but hold their breath. However, those who were more informed, like Hai Bodong, had looks of sheer terror on their faces.

"Q-Qu-Queen Medusa!!!!" Hai Bodong retreated several steps like a frog that had seen a snake, so frightened he could barely stand!

He had dreamed of Queen Medusa every night for the past twenty-some years, though they were all nightmares.

Xiao Yan slowly turned his head to look at the black-haired woman whose perfect face combined cold elegance, allure, and enchantment. He said calmly, "In terms of age, you should be older than Yun Shan."

"Hmph!" Medusa's eyes seemed as if they wanted to devour someone. She stared at Xiao Yan, her snake-like pupils contracting, as if about to launch an attack.

Mentioning a woman's age?! Do you have a death wish?!

Feeling a bit guilty, Xiao Yan glanced elsewhere, not daring to look directly at this beautiful queen.

The square fell into a brief, suffocating silence with the appearance of this seductive beauty. When Hai Bodong shouted those two words, though brief, they sent chills down the spines of everyone present.

This name was one that most people in the Jia Ma Empire had heard of. That cold, beautiful woman with a ruthless heart had personally slain countless renowned experts in past wars against the empire.

Half the reason why the Jia Ma Empire's Ten Strong frequently changed was because of her. In this empire, only a scant few possessed the strength to contend with this alluring woman. But it was only a contention at best. Jia Xing Tian and Yun Shan had both challenged Queen Medusa in the past, only to flee back in a miserable state.

Though not as badly beaten as Hai Bodong, they could only barely contend with her. Defeating her was absolutely impossible.

This woman used her own ruthless methods that were in no way inferior to those of iron- blooded emperors to deter several empires near the Tager Desert from rashly initiating wars. Many people used words like terrifying, ruthless, and merciless to describe her.

Hai Bodong, who had been puzzled about what methods Xiao Yan might have, now found his curiosity completely transformed into terror. He might have maintained his composure before Yun Shan, but in front of Queen Medusa, he could never conceal the fear gripping his heart. The battle in the desert all those years ago still made his heart tremble to this day.

So it turned out Xiao Yan had him step aside because he was going to call out Queen Medusa! Hai Bodong was moved to tears by Xiao Yan's consideration.

'Could it be that the Green Lotus Core Flame is now in Xiao Yan's possession? What kind of deal does he have with Queen Medusa?' Gu He speculated inwardly. The green flames just now were undoubtedly the Green Lotus Core Flame, which originally belonged to Queen Medusa. 'Could it be related to that evolution back then?' Gu He had indeed guessed correctly. Queen Medusa had been hiding by Xiao Yan's side all along, and now it seemed there was a certain relationship between them. She was protecting Xiao Yan!

"You've successfully evolved? No, your current strength is very peculiar. You possess the abilities of a Dou Ancestor, but it seems you haven't truly reached the Dou Ancestor realm." Yun Shan spoke. He truly was a genuine Dou Ancestor. Even though he was only a 1-star Dou Ancestor and hadn't been at that realm for long, he still possessed sharp insight.

Queen Medusa's jade-like feet lightly stepping on the air proved that she already had the abilities of a Dou Ancestor. However, her actual strength was only at the half-step Dou Ancestor stage and hadn't fully reached the Dou Ancestor realm.

"Enough to deal with you." Queen Medusa gently brushed aside her hair. Even though her cultivation was currently inferior to Yun Shan's, she did not fear facing a 1-star Dou Ancestor

like him.

A strange light flashed in her eyes accompanied by a buzzing sound. Yun Shan suddenly felt a great sense of danger in his heart. Looking down, he saw that grayish-white rock layers had suddenly started creeping up from his feet.n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

"Break!"

Yun Shan circulated the Dou Qi within his body and rapidly formed hand seals. The surrounding air transformed into invisible scythes, swiftly clearing away Medusa's

petrification.

"Hmph." Yun Shan snorted coldly as he stepped on the empty space. Just as he was about to

strike with his palm, a graceful figure suddenly flashed by. A snow-white, jade-like slender hand lightly flicked against his palm.

The moment the two made contact, an incredibly fierce and unmatched surge of energy burst forth from the point of impact.
