SACRED BODY OF THE IMMORTALS

Actually, at the beginning, Jun Xiaoyao had no plans to subjugate the Snake People tribe.

To him, the Snake People were just a minor tribe, and whether they lived or died was of no concern to him.

Even if the entire Snake People tribe were annihilated, Jun Xiaoyao wouldn't feel anything, not even bat an eyelid.

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

The Snake People lineage must still hold secrets.

And those secrets were in the Tai'e Temple.

If the Snake People truly had other origins, then they would be worth cultivating.

Joining the Jun Imperial Court would be a good choice.

"You want our Snake People tribe to become slaves?" Medusa Queen raised her eyebrows.

If anyone else dared to say such things in front of her, Medusa Queen would have slapped them long ago.

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

"Isn't it still following your orders?" Medusa Queen said coldly.

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

"The entire world is a pyramid, with each layer oppressing the one below, and I, the Divine Son, am the one standing at the very peak of this pyramid!"

Jun Xiaoyao's hair danced in the air, his eyes carrying a brilliantly confident light.

He was born noble and lofty.

That air of someone who had long occupied high positions, a dragon among men, made even Medusa Queen feel somewhat uncomfortable.

She felt that in front of Jun Xiaoyao, even she, a Sacred Lord level powerhouse, was more than one level below him.

"Do you believe that the Ancient Path Enforcers who could destroy your Snake People tribe with a wave of their hand would have to bow before me?"

"I am the master of the Jun Imperial Court, and with just a word, I could annihilate your Snake People tribe ten thousand times over!"

"So, this is my mercy toward your Snake People tribe!"

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

In the Snake People tribe, she was the exalted queen.

But in front of Jun Xiaoyao, she was nothing more than a slightly more beautiful, slightly better-figured plaything.

Medusa Queen took a deep breath, her chest heaving.

Her slender phoenix eyes stared directly at Jun Xiaoyao as she said: "Can you guarantee the safety of our Snake People tribe, that we won't be annihilated by the Ancient Path Enforcers?"

"Of course, if I can't prevent it, then no one can," Jun Xiaoyao said calmly.

Medusa Queen felt conflicted inside.

Jun Xiaoyao was the first such being she had ever encountered.

Domineering and imposing, with immense power and authority.

Yet he was also meticulous, calculating, and extraordinarily talented.

Such a figure, if not a hero in the future, would certainly be a hegemon.

Combined with Jun Xiaoyao's unshakable background, Medusa Queen felt that following him might truly lead the Snake People toward a brighter future.

She sighed and said: "For our Snake People tribe to surrender, that's fine, but the secrets within the Tai'e Temple are also very important to us."

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

"Very well, we agree," Medusa Queen sighed.

What choice did they have anyway?

If the secrets within the Tai'e Temple truly couldn't help their Snake People tribe transform as a whole.

Then the slaughter here would definitely incur the wrath of the Ancient Path Enforcers.

At that time, the Snake People tribe would face nothing but annihilation.

Earlier, Medusa Queen wanted to gamble because she was backed into a corner.

Now, Jun Xiaoyao had given her a better option, and Medusa Queen wasn't stupid.

"Good, those who know the times are wise," Jun Xiaoyao nodded.

"Very well, you can explore the Tai'e Temple with us later," Medusa Queen said.

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

Since she was willing to submit to him, she needed to understand the hierarchy.

Medusa Queen bit her red lips lightly, glancing at Jun Xiaoyao.

After a long while, she finally said in a somewhat unfamiliar and dry tone: "Young... Young Master..."

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

Earlier when Biling said she was born from Medusa Queen alone, Jun Xiaoyao found it very strange.

Looking at Medusa Queen, she shouldn't have had a partner.

Medusa Queen said: "A long time ago, there was an eruption at the Tai'e Temple, and an ancient drop of blood came out."

"I used the Snake People's ancient blood element life creation method to refine this drop of ancient blood, nurturing an embryo, which eventually became Biling."

"What? Biling was actually formed from a drop of ancient blood from the Tai'e Temple?" Jun Xiaoyao was surprised.

This was completely beyond his expectations.

And that blood element life creation method of the Snake People could actually nurture life from a drop of ancient blood.

This reminded Jun Xiaoyao of a certain legend from Huaxia.

That deity also had a human head and snake body, right?

"This blood element life creation method is very demanding, and the success rate is too low. It might have been because of that drop of ancient blood that it finally succeeded," Medusa Queen explained.

Jun Xiaoyao nodded.

It seemed the answer should be within the Tai'e Temple.

"Very well, since we've agreed, let's go directly," Jun Xiaoyao said.

Medusa Queen waved her hand, dispersing the isolated space.

They reappeared before everyone's eyes.

"Oh, have you already reached an agreement?"

All eyes turned toward them.

Their expressions simultaneously froze.

Because Medusa Queen was standing slightly behind Jun Xiaoyao.

Looking just like...

Just like a maid.

"Damn, he really turned Medusa Queen into a bed-warming maid?"

"Impressive, the Jun family's Divine Son is truly impressive!"

The dignified Sacred Lord level powerhouse, the Medusa Queen whose beauty and ferocity were renowned far and wide, had actually been subjugated.

"Your Majesty, you..." The Green Snake General and others also wore looks of disbelief.

Medusa Queen waved her hand and said: "Remove the formation, we'll discuss the details later."

Seeing this scene, those Ancient Path geniuses and various cultivators all showed joy at surviving this calamity.

They could finally live.

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

Everyone bowed sincerely to Jun Xiaoyao.

"No need for such formality," Jun Xiaoyao smiled slightly.

Although these people were like ants in his eyes, and he had merely saved them in passing.

But why refuse free reputation?

It could just make up for his image a bit.

"Next, my Snake People tribe will explore the Tai'e Temple. Except for Young Master Jun and his people, everyone else get lost," Medusa Queen said coldly.

Hearing this, the geniuses present didn't show any disappointment.

Being able to escape with their lives was good enough.

"Amitabha, it seems this temple is not fated for this humble monk," Fan Tian chanted a Buddhist phrase, also somewhat helpless.

Mo Jinyu and Saint Hongi's expressions weren't too pleasant.

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

Tiannu Yuan could follow Jun Xiaoyao into the Tai'e Temple, but she couldn't, what was this about?

"Medusa Queen, I am Mo Jinyu from the Sacred Spirit Island, and I also wish to enter this Tai'e Temple..." Mo Jinyu began.

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

"If you hadn't spoken, I would have forgotten about you. If you want to enter the Tai'e Temple, fine, but first you need to get past me."

Jun Xiaoyao said calmly.

These words instantly made Mo Jinyu's expression turn ugly.
