People in Doupo: Unparalleled Talents Actually Bring a System

Medusa nodded gently, then turned her gaze to Xiao Ling, with some expectation in her eyes, and slowly said: "Although I can imagine that the elixir will definitely be of great help to me and our child, but you also know that I have the blood of the snake people after all. We snake people have an ancestral elixir that is indispensable for every generation of Medusa to nurture a fetus."

She paused and continued, "Moreover, the quality of this elixir is different, which has a great impact on the cultivation talent of the new Medusa offspring. The better the grade of the elixir, the higher the upper limit of the offspring's future cultivation. When my mother was pregnant with me, she used a sixth-grade elixir for me. According to common sense, my cultivation talent in this life can only break through to the Dou Zong realm at most. If I hadn't met you later, by chance, how could I have achieved what I have today."

At this point, Medusa's eyes became more expectant. She reached out and held Xiao Ling's hand, and said softly, "Although the current situation is no longer the same as it was then, I still hope that you can help me refine a Heavenly Soul Melting Blood Pill of the highest quality for our child to use. This way, I will feel at ease."

Seeing Medusa's expectant expression, Xiao Ling's eyes were full of doting. He stretched out his hand and gently scratched Medusa's upturned nose. With a somewhat helpless and loving tone, he smiled and said:

"Silly boy, I am the biological father of the child, and this is what I should do. I have heard you talk about this before, but I didn't delve too deeply into it at that time. But now that you are pregnant with our child, this pill must be refined."

Xiao Ling paused, his eyes became serious, and then he said, "How about this, you give me the recipe for the highest quality Heavenly Soul Melting Blood Pill later. I will start refining it right away. Coincidentally, I still have a lot of high-level pills that can nourish the fetus on hand. It's a good opportunity to refine them all at once so that our child can get better nourishment."

Hearing Xiao Ling's sincere and heartwarming words, Medusa felt as if a warm current was flowing slowly through her heart, making her feel warm and sweet.

She looked at Xiao Ling with more tender eyes, and couldn't help but blurt out: "Husband, you are so good."

After saying that, her cheeks flushed slightly, her eyes were full of tenderness, and she took the initiative to move forward and gently kissed Xiao Ling's lips.

Xiao Ling was stunned at first, with a hint of surprise in his eyes, but soon, the surprise was replaced by deep love.

He subconsciously stretched out his hand and gently embraced Medusa's slender waist, applying a little force to bring the two of them closer together, so that their bodies were pressed so closely that there was almost no gap between them.

After a moment, the two slowly parted their lips. Medusa's cheeks were flushed with a charming blush. She seemed to have lost all her strength and collapsed in Xiao Ling's arms like water.

Xiao Ling looked at her cute and lovable appearance, his heart full of love, he couldn't help but gently touch her forehead with his nose, and said softly with a doting smile: "Haha, if the husband is not good to the wife, then who can he be good to?"

If others were lucky enough to see Medusa in such a delicate appearance now, they would probably be shocked.

After all, in the past, she was the cold, noble and awe-inspiring Queen Medusa, with majesty in her every move. She had never looked so petite, delicate and beautiful.

It’s a pity that no third person can see this scene full of warmth and love.

Medusa, who is full of tenderness and gentle demeanor, will only show this side of her without reservation in front of Xiao Ling, and fully display the softest warmth in her heart.

……

Jia Ma Empire, Yunlan Sect.

Inside the luxurious palace, carved beams and painted buildings show the luxury, the gilded pillars emit a dazzling brilliance, the caisson on the roof of the palace is of intricate craftsmanship and exquisiteness, and the ornaments displayed everywhere are all rare treasures, demonstrating the extraordinary and noble nature of the Yunlan Sect everywhere.

However, at this moment, there were only two people standing opposite each other in this magnificent hall, making it seem a little too empty for a moment.

Yun Yun stood there quietly, looking at Yun Shan who was sitting on the main throne. She felt that the master in her memory who always had a gentle smile and was so caring towards her had now become so strange.

When those eyes looked at me in the past, they were full of love and concern, but now, there seemed to be only indifference and alienation in those eyes, and the warmth of the past was long gone.

However, Yunshan didn't care at all about Yun Yun's complicated look. He leisurely picked up the tea on the table beside him, took a sip, then slowly put down the teacup and said slowly:

"Soon, my Yunlan Sect will hold a grand wedding banquet, and we will invite many famous figures from the Jiama Empire to attend the ceremony. And you, Yun Yun, the current leader of the Yunlan Sect, will also officially marry the Dan Emperor Gu He. This is a major event related to the future of my Yunlan Sect, and you need to be prepared."

Hearing Yunshan's words, Yun Yun could no longer suppress the surging emotions in her heart. Her eyes were red, full of grievance and unwillingness, and she asked with a trembling voice:

"Master, do you really want me to marry Gu He? There is no love between him and me. How can you be so cruel as to force me to marry someone I don't like at all?"

Faced with Yun Yun's excited attitude, Yun Shan was slightly stunned, but soon regained his usual calm.

He frowned slightly, his tone was irrefutable, and he said slowly:

"You are the current leader of the Yunlan Sect. This identity is not just a decoration. Naturally, you must go all out and make contributions to the development of the Yunlan Sect."

"Since I brought you back to Yunlan Sect, I have raised you with great difficulty, watched you grow up step by step to become the Sect Master, and cultivated to your current level. Along the way, the responsibilities and missions you shoulder have been destined. For the prosperity of Yunlan Sect, when necessary, what does it matter if you sacrifice some personal feelings? So, no matter what, you cannot refuse this matter. You need to understand that this is your obligation..."

After hearing Yunshan's words, Yunyun felt lonely inside, as if a cold wind was whistling past, cooling her heart which still had some warmth.

The master who was once amiable and considerate of her in everything had now become so strange and indifferent. The friendship between master and apprentice in the past seemed to have become an unattainable old dream. Her expression became more and more lonely, and her eyes were full of sadness and helplessness.

Before she could say anything more, Yunshan raised his eyes slightly, with a scrutinizing look in his eyes, and continued to ask:

"Do you have any objection to your master's arrangement? Yun Yun, please don't ignore the overall situation of Yun Lan Sect because of your momentary love. As the sect master, you should consider the whole sect. This marriage is of great significance to Yun Lan Sect. Gu He has now broken through the Dou Huang realm and his alchemy skills have reached the advanced level of the sixth rank. If we can marry him, our Yun Lan Sect will get a lot of help in the future. You can't be unable to distinguish the importance of this, right?"

Listening to Yunshan's heart-piercing words, Yun Yun's face was expressionless at this moment. She stood there quietly like a lifeless statue.

Her mind involuntarily emerged with memories of her childhood. At that time, she was brought back to Yunlan Sect by Yunshan. Her master took great care of her and cultivated her with all his strength, watching her grow up step by step from an ignorant child.

Those heartwarming scenes, like bright stars, once illuminated her childhood. She still remembers her master’s gentle smile, which was full of kindness and seemed to be able to dispel all the haze in the world.

But now, the master in front of her looked the same as in her memory, except that his hair had turned white and his face didn't seem to be much different. However, those beautiful pictures had already been shattered into pieces in Yun Yun's mind, and she could no longer piece together the warmth she once had.

She sighed inwardly, feeling lonely and helpless, thinking silently:

"Hey, I was raised by my master after all. With the resources of Yunlan Sect, I was able to reach my current position step by step. If there was no Yunlan Sect, how could I be who I am today? And I would not have such a precious identity as the leader of Yunlan Sect. Perhaps, this is what I should do for Yunlan Sect, even if I have to give up my feelings, even if I am reluctant, it is what I should do..."

Yun Yun sighed softly and opened her lips slightly. Just when she was about to speak in response to Yun Shan, suddenly, a burst of hurried footsteps came from outside the palace. The footsteps came from far away and broke the originally depressing and dull atmosphere in the palace.

Then, there were several clear knocks on the door. At the same time, an old voice followed the knocks into the hall: "Old Sect Master, Sect Master, I have something important to report."

This sudden change also made Yun Yun stop the words that were about to come out of her mouth.

Yunshan's originally serious and somewhat unquestionable expression paused slightly, and the two of them almost simultaneously turned their gazes towards the direction of the hall entrance.

Yun Yun and Yun Shan were naturally very familiar with this sudden voice.

Yunshan immediately waved his sleeves, and a strong fighting spirit instantly surged out from his sleeves and went straight towards the tightly closed door. With a "creaky" sound, the heavy door slowly opened.

Yunshan frowned slightly, looked at the person outside the door, and asked, "Yunling, you are in a hurry now, is there something important?"

After the door opened, Yun Leng walked in steadily, first bowed respectfully to Yun Shan, then turned to Yun Yun and bowed slightly.

After the formalities were completed, he looked back at Yunshan, and said with a serious and solemn expression:

"It is indeed an important matter, old sect leader. Yunlan Sect received a letter from the Xiao family a while ago. The letter stated that Master Xiao Ling of the Xiao family is going to marry Medusa, the queen of the snake people. The wedding will be held in the snake people soon."

Chapter 566: Yun Yun's Little Thoughts, Yao Chen and Xiao Diao Arrive

As soon as Yun Leng finished speaking, Yun Shan's expression froze for a moment, and then he slowly spoke:

"I've heard before that the relationship between the Snake Tribe's Queen Medusa and Master Xiao Ling is very special. I thought it was just some groundless rumors, but I never thought that the news is not groundless. Now the two have developed to this point and are about to get married..."

When Yun Yun heard this, she couldn't help but look thoughtful, and her mind couldn't help but think of the banquet held at the Xiao family a few days ago.

The banquet was lively and everyone was chatting happily, but no one expected that Xiao Ling would leave so suddenly. He didn't even say hello and disappeared from everyone's sight without any warning.

Recalling that scene at this moment, Yun Yun wondered in her heart, could it be that Xiao Ling's hasty departure at that time was related to the matter of Queen Medusa?

After all, now that he had received the news, the two were going to get married, and they must have a deep relationship. Perhaps there was some emergency involving Queen Medusa at that time, which was why he didn't even care about basic etiquette and left in a hurry.

A hint of realization flashed across Yun Yun's eyes, but then they dimmed slightly, and she sighed inwardly.

Xiao Ling and Queen Medusa have such a deep friendship that they are willing to do anything for each other, but she cannot even make decisions on matters of the heart and can only be forced to obey her master's arrangements and marry Gu He, with whom she has no emotional foundation. When she thinks of this, her heart is filled with bitterness and helplessness.

She bit her lip slightly, trying to suppress all these thoughts, but those complicated emotions were like silk threads, becoming more and more tangled in her heart, and she couldn't sort them out.

While Yun Yun was pondering in her heart, the conversation between Yun Shan and Yun Leng was coming to an end.

Yunshan couldn't help but sigh slightly, with a complicated look in his eyes, and slowly said:

"In recent years, the power of the Snake People has been growing rapidly, and has achieved considerable development. And now, Queen Medusa is going to marry Master Xiao Ling. The future prospects of the Snake People are unimaginable. Such good luck is really enviable."

As he said this, Yunshan felt a pang of regret in his heart again. He couldn't help but sigh softly and slowly turned his gaze to Yun Yun, who was standing silently beside him without saying a word.

He thought to himself that it was a pity that his disciple did not have much interaction with Master Xiao Ling at the beginning, and they were not able to establish any deep relationship.

Otherwise, with the Snake People now experiencing such a thriving and promising situation, how could it not be the current situation of the Yunlan Sect?

If Yun Yun could have some connection with Master Xiao Ling, or even develop a closer relationship, with the influence and strength of Master Xiao Ling, the status of Yunlan Sect in the Jia Ma Empire would surely be steadily improved, and he would not have to be so cruel as to let his own disciple marry Gu He in order to seek Yunlan Sect to continue to occupy a place in the Jia Ma Empire, where the situation has changed drastically.

Although Yun Yun lowered her head slightly at this moment and did not meet Yun Shan's gaze, she could clearly sense the regretful look that Yun Shan gave her.

And based on her many years of understanding of her master, she immediately understood what her master was thinking.

She first felt that her master was too focused on profit, and for the sake of the development of the Yunlan Sect, he did not care about her own feelings at all.

But in the midst of helplessness and bitterness, other thoughts quietly emerged in her mind.

She secretly thought that if she could have developed a deeper relationship with Xiao Ling at the beginning, perhaps the current situation would be completely different.

Perhaps my master would not have forced me to marry Gu He, and I would not have to be like this now, full of reluctance but unable to resist, and could only passively accept this cold arrangement.

Yunshan frowned slightly, and gradually came back to his senses from his complicated thoughts. He looked at Yunyun again and said slowly, "Since Master Xiao Ling is going to hold his wedding soon, our Yunlan Sect should stagger the wedding date to avoid suspicion. Yun'er, in this case, the wedding that I have arranged for you and Gu He will have to be postponed for a while."

After that, he sighed softly, with a look of unquestionableness in his eyes, and continued: "During this period of time, you can get in touch with Gu He more and get to know each other better. Although this marriage was decided by the master for the sake of the sect, feelings can be cultivated slowly. Gu He is quite accomplished in alchemy and is a Douhuang strongman. In the future, he will work with you and will definitely bring a lot of help to Yunlan Sect. You should try to discover his good points and don't always resist him."

At this moment, Yun Yun listened to Yun Shan's words, her face was still as calm as water, and there seemed to be no ripples in her heart. Her expression was like a deep and bottomless lake, so calm that it was impossible to tell any emotion from her.

She seemed to have already tacitly agreed to Yunshan's arrangement. She just bowed slightly and replied in a calm and indifferent tone: "Master, I understand."

Yunshan naturally noticed the indifferent and somewhat lonely mood change of Yun Yun at this moment. Although he felt a little confused, he thought that Yun Yun had always been sensible and should have figured it out by now, so he didn't care too much.

Yunshan thought that Yun Yun had completely accepted his arrangement, so he nodded slightly and said in a steady tone: "In that case, I will not stay here any longer. I will go to practice in seclusion. If there is anything in the sect, please come back and tell me."

After saying that, Yunshan waved his sleeves lightly, and his fighting spirit surged all over his body. His figure instantly turned into several afterimages. After a few quick moves, he disappeared like a gust of wind and had already left the hall.

After Yunshan left, the hall became even more empty and quiet. Only Yunyun and Yunling were left standing opposite each other. For a moment, the atmosphere became even more awkward and depressing.

Yun Leng looked at the lonely and cold Yun Yun in front of him, and the scene when he came to the hall before suddenly emerged in his mind.

At that time, I happened to hear a disciple report that Gu He came to visit Yun Yun again.

At this moment, he hesitated again and again, but still took a step forward, bowed to Yun Yun, and said respectfully: "Master, Elder Gu He happened to come to visit today. I wonder if you have any arrangements for this?"

When Yun Yun heard this, her expression remained as indifferent as water.

She raised her eyes slightly, her tone was calm but distant, and she responded slowly: "I need to concentrate on my cultivation today, and I really can't spare the time to meet guests. Elder Yun Leng, I'll trouble you to help me avoid it."

After saying this, Yun Yun did not give Yun Leng any time to react. Her fighting spirit quietly surged around her, lingering around her like a wisp of light smoke.

Immediately afterwards, his figure instantly turned into a dazzling stream of light, and disappeared without a trace in the blink of an eye, leaving Yun Leng alone, standing blankly in this empty and slightly deserted hall.

……

Deep in the Warcraft Mountains, a solitary peak stands tall and majestic, reaching into the sky, as if it wants to poke a hole in the sky.

The surroundings were empty, with nothing blocking the view. The strong wind blew past, bringing with it bursts of sharp whistling sounds.

Looking down from the peak, one can see endless vastness and depth. The continuous mountain ranges are like crawling beasts, looming in the clouds and mist.

In an open space on the solitary peak, Xiao Ling sat upright with a furnace of pills placed in front of him.

The flames under the furnace were burning fiercely, and the hot air was surging, causing the surrounding air to distort.

Xiao Ling's face was calm, and his hands kept making complicated hand seals. As the hand seals changed, it seemed that strands of soul power were injected into the alchemy furnace through his fingertips. The patterns on the alchemy furnace also flickered, as if responding to Xiao Ling's control.

Waves of medicinal fragrance wafted out from the cracks of the alchemy furnace. At first, it was only faint, but as Xiao Ling's hand seals changed more frequently, the fragrance became stronger and stronger, lingering above this solitary peak, adding a different kind of charm to this originally desolate and cold place.

Xiao Ling's eyes were always fixed on the alchemy furnace with a focused expression. At this moment, his entire mind was immersed in the process of refining the alchemy, and he only hoped to successfully refine the highest quality Heavenly Soul Melting Blood Pill.

At the same time, in the core area of ​​the Snake People’s territory, two men were walking side by side slowly towards the direction of the hall.
