When the Third Elder saw Lin Yuan kneeling on one knee, facing Queen Medusa, he finally realized what was going on.
Even a fool could see what was going on.
"Great, great, great!"
The Third Elder burst into laughter. This way, Lin Yuan, a Dou Zong powerhouse, would be completely bound to the Serpent People.
With a young Dou Zong powerhouse like Lin Yuan, coupled with his status as a seventh-rank alchemist, the Serpent People were poised for growth!
The Third Elder was fundamentally different from the First Elder. The First Elder was inherently concerned with appearances and had pedantic ideas.
But the Third Elder believed that if the Serpent People wanted to grow and prosper, they must abandon outdated notions.
Ancestral precepts stipulated that the Serpent People's king must never marry, a mistaken decision from the beginning.
Love between men and women had been an immutable law since ancient times. Could it be that only a heartless heart could effectively govern the Serpent People?
No, the Third Elder disagreed.
Everything in the universe follows its own natural laws of development. Only with compassion in one's heart can one unleash boundless power.
Take Queen Medusa, for example. Her love for the Serpent People was the driving force behind her cultivation.
Without this deep love for her people, she would never have achieved the peak Nine-Star Dou Huang realm at such a young age, relying solely on her natural talent.
Therefore, regardless of both reason and emotion, the Third Elder favored Lin Yuan and Queen Medusa being together.
While the Third Elder was lost in thought, Lin Yuan stood up, took Queen Medusa's hand, and walked to the main seat above the Elders' Hall.
As he passed the First Elder, he kicked him in the butt. "Get out of the way! A good dog doesn't block the road!"
The First Elder fell flat on his face, but he could only suppress his anger, not daring to utter another word.
The Second and Fourth Elders exchanged a smile and tactfully offered their seats.
Seeing this, Lin Yuan nodded in satisfaction.
The next moment, Lin Yuan pulled Medusa toward the countless Serpent People below, raising their clasped hands high.
"From today on, Medusa is my wife, Lin Yuan. You are all members of Medusa's tribe and will enjoy my protection!"
"Remember, as long as I, Lin Yuan, live, I will not let anyone look down on the Serpent People. In the near future, I will lead you out of the Tagor Desert and establish a place for the Serpent People in the Xiama Empire!"
Lin Yuan's words, tinged with a hint of fighting spirit, resonated clearly with everyone.
In an instant, everyone in the hall felt their blood boiling, their gazes ablaze.
"Long live the King!"
"Long live the King!"
"We believe in the King and Queen!"
"..."
At that moment, in the hearts of every Serpent People, Lin Yuan was considered the new King!
Medusa, naturally, had transitioned from "Queen" to Lin Yuan's "Queen"!
"Haha, Medusa, I'm so happy that you can find a husband like this!"
The third elder came over with a wooden box in his hand, smiling, and sincerely wished Medusa well.
"Thank you, third elder!"
Medusa's pretty face flushed, but she still said thank you to the third elder.
"Haha..."
The third elder smiled again, and then turned his gaze to Lin Yuan.
Then, holding the wooden box in both hands, he said to Lin Yuan respectfully: "Your Majesty, the medicinal materials for the transformation pill are here!"
"Okay, thank you for your hard work!"
Lin Yuan nodded, stretched out his hand to take the wooden box, and then scratched Medusa's nose with his fingers lovingly, "Find me a secret room, I will start to refine the transformation pill for you!"
"Come to my bedroom!"
"Okay!"
With that, Lin Yuan and the other elder raised their legs and walked towards the door.
"Farewell, Your Majesty!"
After Lin Yuan and the other two left, the Third Elder immediately dismissed everyone in the hall and returned to the back hall with the Second and Fourth Elders.
As for the Great Elder, they didn't even glance at him, simply ignoring him.
"Lin Yuan!"
After everyone left, the Great Elder's face instantly became ferocious.
He gritted his teeth, his hatred for Lin Yuan reaching a frenzied level.
With a flick of his eyes, the Great Elder smiled sinisterly, a diabolical plan instantly forming in his mind.
...
After leaving the Elders' Hall, Lin Yuan arrived at a secret room in Medusa's chambers.
"Are you sure?"
Inside, Queen Medusa stared at Lin Yuan anxiously, her words thick with nervousness.
"Heh..."
Lin Yuan chuckled softly, saying, "Don't worry. Although the Transformation Pill is a high-grade seventh-grade elixir, it's a piece of cake for me."
Lin Yuan's tone was filled with confidence.
Before Lin Yuan's time travel, Han Feng was already a top-tier alchemist.
He had even refined the seventh-grade elixir, the "Yin Yang Mysterious Dragon Pill."
This suggests that Han Feng, with his previous strength, could have refined even low-level seventh-grade elixirs.
After Lin Yuan's time travel, he obtained the complete version of the "Burning Art," completely devouring the Sea Heart Flame, further enhancing his power.
Furthermore, after devouring the Azure Lotus Earth Core Fire and the fusion of the two flames, Lin Yuan's mastery of these flames reached a state of mastery.
Furthermore, his own strength had also broken through to the Dou Zong level.
Given all of this, Lin Yuan now had the confidence to attempt even a low-level eighth-grade elixir, let alone a seventh-grade one.
Furthermore, Lin Yuan was confident he could successfully refine an eighth-grade elixir.
Therefore, the Transformation Pill was a piece of cake for Lin Yuan now.
"Yes, I believe you!"
Medusa's nervousness finally relaxed after hearing Lin Yuan's words.
It's no wonder she was so cautious. Although she trusted Lin Yuan completely, this Transformation Pill was, after all, the key to Medusa's Dou Zong breakthrough.
The Serpent People had accumulated these two medicinal ingredients over decades and centuries, so she couldn't afford to be careless.
"Alright, little darling, don't worry. You'll be Dou Zong-level in no time."
Then, Lin Yuan opened the wooden box and took out both medicinal ingredients.
With a flip of his palm, the Ten Thousand Beasts Cauldron instantly appeared.
"Protect me!"
With that, Lin Yuan sat cross-legged and was about to toss the herbs into the furnace.
"Wait a minute!"
Just then, Medusa suddenly cried out in surprise. "You're putting both ingredients in at once?"
"What else?"
Lin Yuan asked curiously.
"But can't an alchemist only refine one pill at a time? You're putting two at once. Are you trying to refine two at once?" Medusa blinked, puzzled.
"Hmph, other alchemists are no match for me?" Lin Yuan's words were filled with pride.
The next second, under Medusa's shocked gaze, Lin Yuan dumped the ingredients for two Transformation Pills into the furnace...
