Actually, at the beginning, Jun Xiaoyao didn't have plans to subdue the Snake-man Race.

To him, the Snake-man Race was just a tiny tribe, its survival or destruction was of no concern to him.

Even if the Snake-man Race were annihilated, Jun Xiaoyao wouldn't feel anything, not even batting an eyelid.

But after learning about Biling's bloodline, Jun Xiaoyao vaguely sensed.

The Snake-man Race might still have secrets.

And that secret lies within the Tai'e Temple.

If the Snake-man Race truly has other origins, then the Snake-man Race is worth cultivating.

Joining the Monarch Court is a good choice.

"Do you want us, the Snake-man Race, to be slaves?" Queen Medusa's eyebrows arched.

If it were someone else daring to say such things in front of her, Queen Medusa would've slapped them long ago.

"It's subjugation, not enslavement," Jun Xiaoyao corrected.

"But we'd still have to follow your orders," Queen Medusa said coldly.

Jun Xiaoyao slightly shook his head and said, "Queen Medusa, you can't be that naive, you should know, there's no absolute freedom in this world."

"The entire world is a pyramid, layer upon layer of oppression, and I, the Divine Son, stand at the very peak of the pyramid!"

Jun Xiaoyao's hair fluttered, his eyes shone with a brilliant confidence.

He was born noble and lofty.

That high-standing, superior aura even made Queen Medusa feel somewhat uncomfortable.

She felt that before Jun Xiaoyao, even as a Saint Master level expert, she was several notches lower.

"Do you believe that the Ancient Road Law Enforcer, who can casually destroy your Snake-man Race, would bow and submit before me, the Divine Son?"

"I am, after all, the Master of the Imperial Court, with a mere word, I could obliterate your Snake-man Race a thousand times!"

"So, this is my mercy towards your Snake-man Race!"

Jun Xiaoyao's words made Queen Medusa's face turn pale.

In the Snake-man Race, she was the exalted queen.

But before Jun Xiaoyao, she was just a slightly beautiful, well-proportioned plaything.

Queen Medusa took a deep breath, her chest heaving.

She fixed her long phoenix-like eyes on Jun Xiaoyao, saying, "Can you ensure the safety of our Snake-man Race, that it won't be destroyed by the Ancient Road Law Enforcer?"

"Of course, if I, the Divine Son, can't stop it, then no one else can either," Jun Xiaoyao replied calmly.

Queen Medusa felt somewhat conflicted.

It was the first time she encountered someone like Jun Xiaoyao.

Domineering and awe-inspiring, with overwhelming power and influence.

Yet he was meticulous, calculating, and had extraordinary talent.

Such a person, even if not a hero, would be a formidable leader.

Plus, with Jun Xiaoyao's unshakable background, Queen Medusa thought perhaps the Snake-man Race could indeed have a bright future following Jun Xiaoyao.

She sighed and said, "For our Snake-man Race to surrender, we can, but the secret within Tai'e Temple is important to us too."

"Rest assured, we can explore it together," Jun Xiaoyao said.

"Alright, we agree," Queen Medusa sighed.

What else could be done if they didn't agree?

If the secrets within Tai'e Temple couldn't truly transform the entire Snake-man Race.

Then the ensuing slaughter would surely incur the wrath of the Ancient Road Law Enforcer. 𝑓𝘳𝘦𝑒𝑤𝑒𝘣𝘯ℴ𝘷𝘦𝓁.𝑐𝑜𝑚

By then, the only path for the Snake-man Race would be annihilation.

Queen Medusa previously wanted to gamble as she was driven to desperation.

Now, Jun Xiaoyao offered her a better choice, and Queen Medusa was not foolish.

"Yes, aware of current conditions, one becomes a wise person," Jun Xiaoyao nodded.

"Alright then, you can explore Tai'e Temple with us later," Queen Medusa said.

"What should you call me?" Jun Xiaoyao said evenly.

Since they were willing to submit to him, they must understand the ranks and respect.

Queen Medusa bit her red lip lightly and glanced at Jun Xiaoyao.

After a long pause, she used a somewhat hesitant and parched tone to say, "Y...Young Master..."

"Very good, by the way, I am quite curious about Biling's bloodline," Jun Xiaoyao said.

Previously, Biling said she was born from Queen Medusa alone, which Jun Xiaoyao found strange.

It seemed Queen Medusa should not have any partner.

Queen Medusa said, "Long ago, there was an upheaval in Tai'e Temple, from which a drop of Ancient Blood sprayed out."

"I used the ancient Blood Element Creation Method of the Snake-man Race to refine this drop of Ancient Blood, nurturing an embryo, and eventually, it became Biling."

"What, Biling was actually born from a drop of Ancient Blood in Tai'e Temple?" Jun Xiaoyao was somewhat surprised.

This was entirely beyond his expectations.

Also, the Blood Element Creation Method of the Snake-man Race could actually nurture life from a drop of Ancient Blood.

This reminded Jun Xiaoyao of a legend from Huaxia.

That divine being seemed to have a human head and a snake body too?

"This Blood Element Creation Method is very demanding, and the success rate is too low. It might be due to that drop of Ancient Blood that it finally succeeded," Queen Medusa explained.

Jun Xiaoyao nodded.

It seems the mystery lies within Tai'e Temple.

"Alright, since it's settled, let's go directly," Jun Xiaoyao said.

Queen Medusa waved her hand, dispersing the isolated space.

They once again appeared in front of everyone.

"Huh, it's settled already?"

Everyone's gaze was upon them.

They were all taken aback for a moment.

Because Queen Medusa actually stood slightly behind Jun Xiaoyao's side.

It looked just like...

Just like a maid.

"Whoa, did he really turn Queen Medusa into a bed warmer maid?"

"Amazing, the Jun Family's Divine Son is truly amazing!"

The renowned and notorious Queen Medusa, a Saint Master level expert, was actually subdued.

"Your Majesty..." Cyan Snake General and others were also in disbelief.

Queen Medusa waved her hand and said, "Disperse the array, we'll discuss the specifics later."

Seeing this, those Ancient Road Celestial Pride and various cultivators showed the joy of having survived a catastrophe.

They could finally live.

"Thank you, Divine Son, for saving our lives!"

Everyone earnestly bowed to Jun Xiaoyao.

"No need for this." Jun Xiaoyao smiled slightly.

Though these people were ants in his eyes, merely saved in passing.

But why not accept the reputation that fell into his lap?

It could conveniently improve his image.

"Next, our Snake-man Race will explore Tai'e Temple. Besides Young Master Jun and his people, everyone else should leave," Queen Medusa coldly said.

Upon hearing this, the Celestial Pride present did not display any disappointment.

Being able to return alive was already good enough.

"Amitabha, it seems this temple has no fate with me," Brahma Heaven recited a Buddhist chant, somewhat helplessly.

Mo Jinyu and Sheng Hong Yi's faces didn't look too good.

Hu Qingqing was even more anxious, saying beside Mo Jinyu, "Young Master Mo, this..."

Celestial Maiden Yuan could enter the Tai'e Temple with Jun Xiaoyao, but she could not. How could this be fair?

"Queen Medusa, I am Mo Jinyu of Holy Spirit Island, and I also wish to enter Tai'e Temple..." Mo Jinyu spoke.

However, before Queen Medusa could say anything, Jun Xiaoyao spoke up.

"If you hadn't spoken, I might have forgotten about you. Want to enter Tai'e Temple? Fine, pass my test first,"

Jun Xiaoyao said calmly.

This statement immediately made Mo Jinyu's face turn unpleasant.
