Chapter 51: Reaching a Deal
"You brat, you're not thinking up some crooked idea again, are you?"
"Lu Man also gave Lin Feng a look, speaking unhappily."
"Lin Feng heard that, the corner of his mouth twitched, then he said: 'If my plan succeeds, we won't need to fight; it's just... might waste a bit more time.'"
"Bai Ya nodded his head slightly, saying: 'Then let's do as you say, but hurry; otherwise, once the leaders of the eight great tribes arrive, that strange fire probably won't be safe.'"
"It also couldn't be bothered with all that; best to avoid fighting."
"Now, it just wants a safe place to heal its wounds."
"Lu Man saw that and also nodded, indicating agreement."
"Fine, since that's the case, then when the time comes, whatever I say, you two must definitely show support for me."
"Okay." "Okay."
"Hehe, if you guys had been together earlier, I really wouldn't have been able to do anything, but now you'd better just hand over that strange fire nicely."
"Medusa lightly swayed her snake tail, speaking with the air of having victory in hand."
"While speaking, a glint of hope flashed in her eyes."
"If it weren't for that snake being greedy for her beauty and letting its guard down when she approached,"
"she also couldn't succeed in a sneak attack, and with a relatively small price, she severely wounded it."
"Otherwise, Bai Ya at full strength, plus that six-star Battle Emperor woman,"
"she taking on two opponents wouldn't necessarily have any advantage."
"Hehe, your Snake-People Tribe's yin-cold nature also can't absorb strange fire, right?"
"Lin Feng poked his head out from behind Bai Ya and laughed."
"This has nothing to do with you; you just need to immediately hand over that strange fire to the King!"
"She glanced at Lin Feng, and Medusa lazily waved her hand."
"I once saw in an ancient book a piece of news about the Snake-People Tribe queen, which said that when Medusa queen reaches the peak of Battle Emperor, if the opportunity is sufficient, she could undergo a strange evolution; after evolving, Medusa queen would not only be able to freely transform into a human body, but her strength would also rise as naturally as water flows to become a Battle Ancestor powerhouse; however, the success rate of such evolution seems low, and... most importantly, the thing required for this evolution is strange fire."
"Having said that, Lin Feng paused, smirked, and said: 'I think, Your Majesty the Queen, seeing a Battle Emperor powerhouse yet not retreating, must be harboring the idea of using strange fire to evolve.'"
"What? She actually wants to use strange fire to evolve, crazy?"
"Hearing Lin Feng's words, Bai Ya was momentarily startled, exclaiming in shock."
"Although it knows about this evolution, the success rate is truly pitifully low."
"If something goes wrong, the end result can only be being completely incinerated into nothingness by strange fire."
"Moreover, once this begins, it's truly either success or benevolent death, with no retreat possible."
"So, it previously hadn't even considered this."
"Now, upon hearing about evolution, Bai Ya instantly understood why Medusa is so obsessed with strange fire."
"Hehe."
"Medusa gave a cold chuckle, her face slightly changing."
"The charming pupils tightly stared at Lin Feng, with a chill intertwining, she softly said: 'I didn't expect you to still know these things; truly somewhat surprising to the King.'"
"Just good luck; I stumbled upon it while reading."
"Lin Feng's eyes shifted slightly, and he continued: 'Your Majesty the Queen only needs to use strange fire for evolution, not absorb it; we both don't need to fight to the death; how about this: I lend the strange fire to Your Majesty for evolution, and after success, I only need one six-star beast fire, two fifth-grade prescriptions, and an item that can lift Your Majesty's seal as compensation for the strange fire's energy loss; how about that?'"
"He glanced at Lin Feng on Bai Ya's back, chuckled lightly, and said: 'Not bad, you've got a good head for calculations, but if I, the King, just take it now, wouldn't it be the same?'"
"If Your Majesty the Queen really does that, then we certainly couldn't just sit and wait for death; if we fight to the death and self-destruct, we believe we could still keep Your Majesty forever here; after that, whether the Snake-People Tribe will be devoured by all forces is uncertain."
"Lu Man and Bai Ya on either side, hearing Lin Feng's words, couldn't help but give him a look."
"What time is it now, still thinking about extorting the Snake-People Tribe?"
"But they also cooperatively stepped forward, as if truly obeying Lin Feng's command, preparing to perish together with Medusa."
"Your Majesty."
"Upon hearing that Medusa might be lost, Hua She'er also became anxious."
"Although evolution could also result in losing Medusa, it likewise could promote to Battle Ancestor, thereby bringing great benefits to the Snake-People Tribe."
"But if, given a choice, Medusa still chooses to perish together with those two Battle Emperors before her, then her death would be utterly worthless, extremely uneconomical."
"Shut up!"
"Seeing this situation, Medusa also felt irritable."
"Since she also didn't know Lin Feng's exact identity, she now thought Lin Feng was a disciple of the Heavenly Snake Mansion's high level, while Bai Ya and Lu Man were his attendants."
"Seeing Lin Feng want to have that person and snake perish together with her, for a moment she also dared not act rashly."
"After all, two six-star Battle Emperors self-destructing simultaneously isn't something easy to handle."
"Even at her peak, she lacked confidence, let alone now that she's sustained some injuries."
"At the moment, she seriously considered Lin Feng's proposal for a while and also found it feasible."
"Barring a last resort, she also didn't want to lock horns with those two Battle Emperors."
"But Lin Feng's lion-sized opening demand just now, she definitely couldn't accept."
"After pondering for a long time, she slightly opened her red lips and said: 'One five-star beast fire, two fourth-grade prescriptions, the King can accept, but lifting the seal is out of the question; after all, I've sealed away some experts, and if the seal is lifted, that person might come cause trouble in my Snake-People Tribe.'"
"Upon hearing that, Lin Feng laughed and said: 'Your Majesty the Queen need not worry; I'm only helping that person lift the seal due to some circumstances, with no other intentions; Your Majesty can leave some control measures, so if he dares to cause trouble again, you can still keep him in check.'"
"Medusa, upon hearing that, also thought it feasible, and would leave some means herself."
"If that person dares to come again, it would be just the once he goes to the Western Heaven, thoroughly eliminating the trouble."
"Thinking this through, she nodded and agreed: 'Then according to my previous conditions, plus my own energy that can lift the seal.'"
"Hearing Medusa's conditions, Lin Feng considered Lu Man and Bai Ya, didn't dare delay further, nodded and said: 'Sure, but please let me choose the prescriptions myself, Your Majesty.'"
"Okay."
"Hearing Lin Feng's agreement, Medusa's furrowed brows relaxed accordingly, and she accepted this request."
And Green Man and White Tooth also let out a big sigh of relief; this matter was finally resolved.
Lin Feng also felt relieved in his heart, and Medusa also didn't know about his relationship with Green Man and White Tooth.
Besides, she had been injured in her previous fight with White Tooth; otherwise, it really wouldn't have been so easy to handle.
