"Third Elder, don't!!"
Yue Mei screamed in shock as the Third Elder spoke.
Of the four elders of the Snake People, only the Third Elder truly and wholeheartedly cares for the Snake People.
It's precisely because the Third Elder has devoted all his energy to the development of the Snake People for so many years that his cultivation has remained at the Dou Wang realm, unable to advance an inch.
If he had devoted all his energy to cultivating his energy over the years, he would have already broken through to the Dou Huang level.
Therefore, in Yue Mei's heart, she has always had immense respect for the Third Elder.
Now, for the sake of the Snake People, the Third Elder is willing to sacrifice his life.
How could Yue Mei bear to watch such an old man who has dedicated his entire life to the Snake People die?
"Lin Yuan, please, don't kill the Third Elder, okay? No matter what the Third Elder does, it's for our Snake People. Just say the word, and I'll trade my life for yours."
Yue Mei rushed to Lin Yuan's side and grabbed his sleeve. Her tearful eyes were a sight to behold!
A single tear had already welled up in her crystalline eyes.
Yue Mei's reaction touched the Third Elder deeply.
"Silly child, I don't have many years left to live. As long as our Snake People can escape this desert, even if it means sacrificing my life, what does it matter?"
Then, a smile crossed the Third Elder's wrinkled face.
It seemed that all his efforts over the years had been worth it.
At least there was a silly child like this, remembering everything he had done.
"No, Third Elder, the Serpent People can't live without you. Yue Mei doesn't want you to die!"
With that, tears streamed uncontrollably from Yue Mei's eyes. "Lin Yuan, please, please, for the Queen's sake, spare the Third Elder!"
Forced into a corner, Yue Mei could only bring up Queen Medusa.
Judging from the Queen's reaction when Lin Yuan first joined the Serpent People, there must have been a special relationship between them.
Otherwise, the usually aloof Queen would never have been so intimate with a man.
Within the Serpent People, with Lin Yuan's strength, if he set out on a killing spree, no one would be able to stop him.
So, at this moment, Yue Mei could only hope that Lin Yuan still had feelings for Queen Medusa.
"I say, aren't you annoying me with all your crying?"
Lin Yuan impatiently pulled back his sleeve and then wiped the tears from Yue Mei's face.
And hey, it felt good!
Then, Lin Yuan lazily said, "When did I ever say I wanted to kill this old man?"
Yue Mei's eyes flashed with surprise.
However, unlike Yue Mei, the Third Elder, the person involved, shuddered at this moment, his face ashen.
"It's over! Since Lin Yuan said that, he must not let the Snake People go!"
Thinking of this, the Third Elder said desperately, "Sir, are you determined to exterminate my entire Snake People?"
After the Third Elder finished speaking, Lin Yuan was speechless.
"Old man, did I ever say I wanted to exterminate the Snake People?"
It seemed that he had never said anything about the Snake People from the beginning.
The Snake People were the lifeblood of that foolish woman, Queen Medusa.
If he really exterminated the Snake People, wouldn't Medusa bite him to death?
Lin Yuan was going to marry Queen Medusa, so how could he possibly go after her people?
Moreover, even if Queen Medusa was not a factor, Lin Yuan would not do anything to the Snake People.
When the Third Elder said that he would sacrifice his own life in exchange for the survival of the Snake People, Lin Yuan felt a little respect for this old man.
Looking back at this life, how many people can truly offer selfless service?
This old man, willing to sacrifice his own life for his people, how many others possess such a selfless spirit?
Therefore, for the sake of the Third Elder alone, Lin Yuan would not harm a single Serpent People life.
After Lin Yuan finished speaking, the Third Elder was pleasantly surprised.
"Sir, are you not going to argue with us?"
After saying this, the Third Elder carefully observed Lin Yuan's expression, not daring to breathe.
Lin Yuan nodded. "From the beginning, I said, I came here for two reasons! One is to obtain medicinal herbs to refine Medusa's transformation, and the other is to marry her!"
"Okay, I'll get you the herbs for the transformation right away!"
Initially, the Third Elder was genuinely concerned that Queen Medusa, eager for a breakthrough, would be deceived by someone with ulterior motives, so he followed the First Elder to harass Lin Yuan.
Lin Yuan had already proven his strength,
so without hesitation, he agreed.
"No, I can give you the herbs for the transformation, but Medusa is the queen of my Serpent People. She will never marry an outsider!"
The Third Elder was about to depart to fetch the herbs for Lin Yuan,
but just then, the First Elder's voice suddenly rang out.
"Boss, what do you mean by that?" The Third Elder glared at the First Elder, who was not far away.
This damned old man, jumping out at this moment, was he trying to bring the Serpent People to ruin?
"Hmph! Third Elder, have you forgotten our Serpent People's ancestral precepts? As the Serpent People's king, you must never marry. So, you may ask for the herbs, but I will not agree to this marriage!"
The First Elder snorted, citing the ancestral precepts.
"This..."
This left the Third Elder speechless.
"Fuck my ancestral teachings!"
Lin Yuan suddenly roared.
The next second, the overwhelming pressure of a Dou Zong-level master, like thunder, instantly filled the entire hall.
He then pointed at the Great Elder's nose and cursed, "Old dog, Medusa and I are in love, and who the hell do you think you are? How dare you object?"
As he spoke, a terrifying murderous aura suddenly erupted from Lin Yuan. "I'm determined to marry Medusa. Anyone who dares to say another word, I'll kill them straight away!"
With that, Lin Yuan's murderous intent, nearly condensed into a physical form, locked onto the Great Elder.
"You..."
Locked in by Lin Yuan's murderous intent, the Great Elder's back was instantly drenched in cold sweat.
He opened his mouth, but ultimately dared not utter another word.
He had no doubt that if he dared say "no" again, Lin Yuan would kill him!
At that moment, the entire hall fell silent, no one dared to breathe.
"Now, I ask again, is there anyone who dares to oppose my marriage to Medusa?"
Seeing that the Great Elder had calmed down, Lin Yuan withdrew his gaze from him and turned to the crowd present.
Everyone lowered their heads when they met Lin Yuan's gaze, not daring to meet his gaze. Lin Yuan nodded in satisfaction and then said to the Third Elder
, "Take me to see Medusa first!" "
Brothers, come on! Give me more votes and give me strength!
