Chapter 657

Jiang Nan watched with a smile. He had only helped with the evolution at the very beginning; everything else was done by Medusa herself.

Now, there was no need for him to do anything.

He stretched, feeling refreshed and invigorated.

Helping others was also a form of self-cultivation—analyzing the prodigies of the heavens, those of destiny, various exotic items, rules, and the Great Dao...

Of course, it was all done at will.

He only did it if he felt like it; if not, he couldn't be bothered to pay attention.

This girl Medusa, with her wild and haughty nature, was truly excellent.

"Eh?" Jiang Nan turned his head.

Someone was launching a surprise attack on the Snake-Person Tribe.

The intruders were very strong and would normally have caused a lot of trouble for the tribe, but they had chosen the wrong time.

There was no need for Jiang Nan to do anything, nor for the Queen to come out of seclusion.

Jiang Nan had previously pointed out the way for the Snake-Person Tribe, and the essence of heaven and earth Qi that had been suppressed was now exceptionally dense.

Their overall level had improved, and some with high talent had even ascended multiple realms.

The intruders were simply crushed.

Those outside had been dealt with, but there were even more formidable ones who had snuck over to this side.

That had been their plan all along.

The intruders were decisive and didn't stand on ceremony, directly attempting to take Jiang Nan down before attacking Queen Medusa, who was in the middle of cultivation.

They had heard that Medusa had obtained a Heavenly Flame and could not be allowed to fuse with it.

The domineering and sinister nature of this Snake-Person Queen posed too much trouble and too many threats.

"You really know how to pick your targets." Jiang Nan looked at the intruder. They wanted to take him down first?

The sword shadows were ethereal and sharp, the sword Qi spreading out over a long distance with great speed.

Then, they were frozen in mid-air.

The intruder unleashed their Dou Qi frantically, but still couldn't break free, blood spilling from their mouth.

"Don't kill yourself struggling." Jiang Nan smiled and released them.

The void was entirely twisted and chaotic; the intruder's black clothes burst open, revealing the garments underneath and their true appearance.

Dark hair was coiled into a noble phoenix hairpin, framing a beautiful and moving face.

Even at this moment, she remained calm and indifferent, though with added vigilance.

A plain dress wrapped around her full, delicate body, and in her hand was a long sword of strange appearance, emitting a cyan light.

She exuded a grace and nobility that even the plain clothes could not conceal.

With such an appearance, such haughty fullness, such strength, and that Dou technique.

"Yun Yun?" Jiang Nan said.

"You are a beauty, why choose to be a thief?" Jiang Nan smiled faintly.

"Who are you?" Yun Yun snorted, remaining on guard.

"You run into someone's home to steal things, and you ask who they are?"

"That's not something a proper woman would do," Jiang Nan said.

"Heavenly treasures are for anyone to obtain," Yun Yun replied.

"Is that so? Does your Misty Cloud Sect have any? I'll go take a look later and take them all," Jiang Nan said.

Yun Yun snorted and unleashed her power directly.

Previously, it had just been a casual sword strike; she hadn't intended to kill, just to knock this person out.

She was curious, too—this was a human, not a snake-person from the tribe. Could he be a male favorite captured by Medusa?

A pitiful person, indeed.

These snake-people were truly shameless.

"Pfft, pfft, pfft, you're the one who's shameless." Jiang Nan's face darkened. This woman had quite an imagination.

This time, Yun Yun unleashed a Dou technique: "Thousand Wind Gang."

Yun Yun gave a light shout; the Dou Qi sword energy, fine as silk and spiraling in attack, was exceptionally sharp, piercing the surface at a single point.

"That won't work." Jiang Nan raised his hand, caught it, played with it for a moment, and then absorbed it.

"Got any more? Keep going," Jiang Nan said.

It was wind-attribute; since he was idle, he might as well study it.

Yun Yun's expression changed slightly. How was this possible?

On the battlefield, she was fearless.

"Wind Returns to Earth." The sound of wind whistled around Yun Yun, rolling in waves, sending sand and stones flying.

She knew binding Dou techniques, too; she would bind Jiang Nan first.

"..." Jiang Nan said, "Still copying me?"

If he hadn't released her earlier, did she really think she could have broken free?

He just wanted to analyze her.

Within the Wind Binding, Yun Yun was very confident.

Jiang Nan grinned at her and stretched. Binding? What a joke.

"..." Yun Yun's expression changed again.

Her reaction was fast; she used the Dou technique Wind Whirl Wall, a cyan tornado, rolling toward Jiang Nan.

"So much commotion, but so little energy." Jiang Nan raised his hand and swallowed it all.

"Can you... can you still run?"

Yun Yun felt this person was too sinister. All her methods were useless. She released another powerful Dou technique: Four-Direction Wind Wall.

A storm cage blocked Jiang Nan.

She whistled with her Dou Qi wings and soared into the sky to escape.

"Come down," Jiang Nan said.

Everything dissipated, including the Dou Qi wings.

Without her wings and suffering the impact, Yun Yun fell straight down.

She landed in a daze.

"Are you going to be obedient now?" Jiang Nan said.

Amidst the chaos, Yun Yun flipped up and attacked with her sword.

She was very determined; if she could stand, she dared to fight.

"Woman, you're still not convinced?" Jiang Nan raised his hand and grabbed the sword.

No matter how hard Yun Yun pulled, she couldn't take it back.

Jiang Nan looked playful. Yun Yun snorted and swept her leg with a whistle.

Jiang Nan raised his hand and caught that, too.

"Uh... what are you doing, holding it so high?" Jiang Nan said.

"Let me go," Yun Yun said.

"If you want to kill me, just do it."

"Woman, be good, we can talk."

"I have no ill will toward you. On the contrary, when I watched anime in the past, I quite liked you," Jiang Nan said.

"Hmph." Yun Yun didn't understand. After breaking free, she attacked again.

"So you insist on being beaten into submission?"

Jiang Nan didn't even move, but she was shaken away by the force.

It was just the void around Jiang Nan shaking; she hadn't even touched him.

The woman was stubborn; she crawled up and charged again.

She was shaken away again.

Time and time again, she kept charging, and kept being flipped away.

"What exactly do you want to do?" Jiang Nan asked playfully.

"This scene, anyone would think you're trying to molest me, and I'm pushing you away, but you insist on coming back," Jiang Nan said.
