Battle Through the Heavens: Reborn as a Devouring Python, Medusa is taken home.

Chapter 78, Qinglin: Young Master, Don't Go...

People from the three great empires came to present gifts with utmost respect.

Then Medusa looked down on him.

They were even too embarrassed to stay for a meal; they simply left their food and departed.

These people weren't fools; they naturally noticed that Medusa's attitude towards them was very unpleasant.

If they continue to stay, putting aside everything else, they themselves are not happy to be there, so they might as well go back sooner.

Anyway, the goods have already been delivered and the conversation has been over.

Medusa ordered all the items sent by the three great empires to be inspected, their specific uses recorded, and the value of each item determined by its origin.

"Your Majesty, you don't seem to like those people very much." Ning Su followed her back to her palace.

"Little Black, have I told you how our snake people were forced to the Tagor Desert back then?" Medusa sat down at the dressing table, and Flower Snake skillfully removed various jewelry and crowns from her.

"I only briefly mentioned that they were forced into it by the Gama Empire."

"Back then, it was the Gama Empire that joined forces with the surrounding empires to besiege us, which forced us into the desert."

"If the Gama Empire killed 10,000 snake people, then each of the other empires killed 3,000 of our snake people."

"Although I have the deepest hatred for the Gama Empire, I have never forgotten the hatred for the other empires as well."

If it weren't for the fact that her current strength wasn't enough to conquer those empires simultaneously, Medusa would have already made her move.

"I see."

Ning didn't know much about the snake people's past, but she could still sense Medusa's anger through her attitude.

"Sooner or later, I will make them pay for what they did back then!"

Medusa's acceptance of the gifts did not mean she had let go of her past grievances.

This little bit of food is far from enough to make up for the deep-seated hatred we once shared!

Ning nodded silently.

……

Medusa had the warehouse staff take inventory of the items sent by the three great empires, then categorized them and used them based on their intended purpose.

Leave the useless stuff aside for now; it's free, so why not take it?

Ning Su returned to her side hall from the palace and felt as if something was missing.

Oh, right, Qinglin was missing from the greeting.

Normally, the girl would come out to greet him whenever she heard him return.

But I didn't see it today.

Is he cultivating?

Ning walked over to Qinglin's house on the other side of the courtyard and saw that the door was open.

There was a person lying on the ground.

"Azure Scales?!"

Ning Su rushed over and picked up Qing Lin, who had fainted on the ground.

"Qinglin, how are you?"

He quickly checked Qinglin carefully but found no wounds or blood on her body.

And his breathing was still going, just a little heavy, but overall it was still quite steady.

Finally, he touched Qinglin's forehead.

"It's so hot, do you have a fever?"

Ning carried Qinglin back to bed and carefully examined her internal condition.

Fortunately, there were no serious injuries, just a simple cold.

"Hmm...Young Master?"

Seemingly sensing Ning Su's movement, Qing Lin opened her eyes with difficulty.

"It's me. You have a fever. Here, take this pill first." Ning Su took out a pill and held it to Qing Lin's lips for her to swallow.

"You had a fever and didn't even realize it? How could you be so careless?" he said reproachfully.

A weak smile appeared on Qinglin's pale face, and her voice was very soft: "I don't know how I suddenly fainted... I probably caught a cold by accident."

People who cultivate themselves rarely catch a cold or fever under normal circumstances, although it's not impossible.

Ning touched her forehead again; it was very hot, indicating a high fever.

Otherwise, she wouldn't have suddenly fainted.

"Wait a moment, I'll go get some water to help you wash up."

Ning quickly fetched a basin of water, wet a towel, and carefully wiped Qinglin's neck, hands, and feet.

But this little bit is clearly a drop in the ocean.

"Qinglin, I'm going to wipe your whole body so that your fever can go down faster."

Qinglin paused for a moment, then nodded in agreement.

Ning carefully helped her sit up and let her lean on his shoulder.

Then, Qinglin slowly untied her belt and the buttons on her collar.

She stopped after completing this step, too exhausted to continue, and could only close her eyes and lean against Ning Su.

Ning took a wet towel and gently wiped her body.

The latest novel is first published here!

Although her clothes were not completely removed, the girl's delicate and fair skin was faintly visible.

And when Ning helped her wipe her body, he inevitably touched the girl's breasts.

Each time they met, the girl would let out a barely audible hum, but she would not stop them or say anything.

She just kept her eyes closed, leaning on his shoulder, her cheeks flushed, whether from a fever or shyness, it was hard to tell.

Ning Su wiped her body several times until Qing Lin's body temperature dropped significantly before helping her lie down again and covering her with a blanket.

"Qinglin, you should rest for a while. Call me if you need anything."

Ning was about to leave when the girl grabbed his hand.

"Young master, can you stay and keep me company?" Qinglin looked at him weakly.

He paused for a moment, then sat down again on the edge of the bed, holding the girl's small hand tightly.

"Okay, I'll stay here with you. Go and get some rest."

Qinglin smiled happily, slowly closed her tired eyes, but her little hands kept holding onto Ning Su tightly.

It seems that as long as she can hold on to it, she feels at ease.

……

Black Corner Region.

Maple City.

"Sir, we've investigated and found out that the person named Xiao Yan is from Canaan Academy and has already entered the inner courtyard of Canaan Academy," the subordinate reported.

"They're from Canaan Academy? And of all places..." Han Feng tapped his fingers lightly on the table, lost in thought.

Han Feng's influence in the Black Corner Region is so great that there is practically no one he cannot hire or do anything he cannot accomplish.

Unfortunately, Canaan Academy was the only one that wouldn't give him any face.

Because Canaan Academy's influence and strength far surpass his.

It's unlikely that Canaan Academy will hand over Xiao Yan.

But Xiao Yan must die!

No matter who tries to stop him, Han Feng will not give up.

After thinking for a moment, he said to his subordinate, "Go and invite Elders Jin and Yin here. Tell them I need to speak with them."

"yes!"

His men immediately withdrew.

The two elders, Jin and Yin, are two of the most powerful figures in the Black Corner Region. With their help, things will go much more smoothly.

But having only the two elders, Jin and Yin, is not enough.

"Now that we've confirmed that our teacher is still alive, we need to tell our martial uncle about this and ask him to come and help," Han Feng thought to himself.

He didn't assassinate Yao Lao alone.

At the same time, there is also the junior brother of the old doctor, the respected elder who has now joined the Soul Hall—Elder Mu Gu!

Since Elder Yao is still alive, Han Feng naturally wants to call Elder Mu Gu to help as well!
