BTTH: Starting from Capturing the Goddess-Chapter 31 - : The Indestructible Mystic Art - Golden Body -

A misty land stretched endlessly, shrouded in chaos. Looking around, the entire world seemed engulfed in a lifeless silence, devoid of any vitality.

Chen Mo sat cross-legged at the center of this land, his eyes wide open as he observed the changes in this chaotic world.

One hour later.

Chen Mo opened his eyes from meditation, his breathing becoming slightly rapid as he sensed the chaotic world within his mind.

He took out an Ice Heart Pill from his storage ring and swallowed it. Once his spirit cleared, he closed his eyes and resumed his meditation.

Chaotic Meditation Technique.

Enter chaos, meditate upon all things.

Thus, during the day, Chen Mo cultivated the Supreme Primordial Art to strengthen his power, and at night, he meditated to elevate his soul realm.

In the blink of an eye, three days passed.

Just as Chen Mo was about to repeat his routine, a knock sounded at his door, followed by the voice of a serpent-man guard:

"Her Majesty the Queen summons you."

"I'm coming."

Chen Mo, already familiar with the palace, made his way to Queen Medusa's chamber.

He greeted her in his usual playful manner, "Your Majesty, it's been days since we last met. You've become even more beautiful. I missed you so much."

Chen Mo gazed at Queen Medusa, who was reclining lazily on her throne. Her seductive figure exuded charm and allure.

Queen Medusa's expression remained indifferent as she spoke coldly, "You and your glib tongue... Do you not know how to say anything else?"

Chen Mo immediately showered her with more exaggerated compliments.

However, this tactic was utterly useless against Queen Medusa.

Resting her delicate hand against her cheek, she slightly exposed her toned abdomen, where even faint abdominal lines were visible. She cast a sidelong glance at Chen Mo and sneered, "Is this how you tricked my sister?"

Chen Mo was momentarily at a loss for words and chose to remain silent.

Queen Medusa continued, "Human, are you satisfied with your stay in my Snake-People Tribe's palace?"

Chen Mo was taken aback, unsure why she was asking this, but he still replied, "It's quite comfortable."

"In that case, do you wish to stay here permanently?"

"Huh?"

Chen Mo was stunned again. What's with her today? Shouldn't she be attacking me by now?

He hesitated before cautiously answering, "The palace is beautiful and comfortable. If possible, staying here wouldn't be bad at all."

"You sure have wishful thinking!"

Queen Medusa suddenly sat up and coldly snapped, "Human, with your talent, many top-tier factions in the outside world would fight to recruit you. So why did you come to the Snake-People Tribe? And now you even want to stay? What exactly is your goal?"

"Don't forget, humans and my Snake-People Tribe are mortal enemies. Are you not afraid that I will kill you?"

Chen Mo lowered his head and furrowed his brows. Is this a test?

He quickly responded, "Your Majesty, as I have said before, I came to the Snake-People Tribe to protect Die."

[Ding! Favorability -1.]

Before Chen Mo could finish speaking, the system's notification rang in his mind.

"???"

Even without looking up, he could feel Queen Medusa's gaze turning colder.

What's going on?

Chen Mo was momentarily stunned but quickly thought of a way to salvage the situation. In a flash of inspiration, he said:

"Your Majesty, the truth is, I am an orphan, all alone in this world, drifting across the continent. When I saved Die and came to the Snake-People Tribe, it was the first time I ever felt a sense of home. That's why I said that if possible, I would like to stay."

"As for humans and the Snake-People Tribe, I believe peaceful coexistence is possible."

Chen Mo spoke honestly—after all, in his past life, he truly was an orphan.

[Ding! Favorability +1. Obtained 2 Favorability Coins.]

"Home."

Hearing this, Queen Medusa recalled what Balu had told her a few days ago—about making him one of her people.

She then said, "Do you think you can fool me with such flowery words?"

Chen Mo: ...

If not for the system, I might've actually believed her.

He said, "Your Majesty, every word I said is true. Not a single lie."

"Heh."

Queen Medusa let out a cold chuckle before asking, "Human, after how I treated you the other day, do you not hate me?"

Here it comes.

This is what she really wanted to say.

But Chen Mo was already prepared. Without hesitation, he blurted out, "Hate? I wish I could pin you down and give you a proper beating!"

He immediately checked the system—his favorability had not decreased.

Chen Mo breathed a sigh of relief.

He had figured out Queen Medusa's personality.

So this is the kind of queen you are.

"You dare to seek death!"

Queen Medusa's face turned icy. She had expected another lie from this human, yet he dared to speak so audaciously.

With a flash of red light, she instantly appeared before Chen Mo.

Raising her jade-like hand, she struck him directly in the chest.

Chen Mo barely had time to react before he was sent flying.

[Ding! Favorability +1. Obtained 2 Favorability Coins.]

"Ugh!"

Chen Mo crashed onto the ground, coughing up blood. Seeing that Queen Medusa hadn't used a killing blow, he challenged her further:

"If you have the guts, suppress your strength to my level! Let's see how I teach you a lesson!"

"Still so stubborn!"

A cold glint flashed in Queen Medusa's eyes. Her figure blurred, leaving behind several red afterimages.

In the next instant, she appeared before Chen Mo again, grabbing him by the throat and pinning him against the wall at the end of the chamber. Her red lips curled into a smirk.

"For someone so weak, you sure have guts. Do you really think I won't kill you?"

Seeing Chen Mo's flushed face and his hands struggling against hers, she playfully whispered, "If you admit you were wrong, I might consider sparing you."

[Ding! Favorability +2. Obtained 5 Favorability Coins. Intimacy bonus triggered—received a Tier-3 Dou Shi Pill.]

"You... You wish..."

Since the reward had already been given, there was no way Chen Mo would admit defeat.

"Then die!"

Queen Medusa loosened her grip, then clenched her fist and slammed it into Chen Mo's chest.

Boom!

Chen Mo was sent crashing into the wall, spitting out blood. His face turned pale.

[Ding! Favorability +3. Obtained Indestructible Mystic Art - Golden Body Chapter.]

Queen Medusa still refrained from dealing a fatal blow, but seeing Chen Mo in this state gave her immense satisfaction. She smirked and asked, "Do you still refuse to admit your mistake?"

Cough cough...

"Never... One day, I'll make you—"

Thud!

Before he could finish, Queen Medusa delivered a precise chop to his neck, knocking him unconscious.

Gazing at the unconscious Chen Mo, a faint blush inexplicably appeared on Queen Medusa's face.

She murmured, "Human, can't you just go along with me for once?"

"Guards, take him away!"

Boom!

The chamber doors swung open, and Yue Nu entered with two serpent-man guards.

Upon seeing Chen Mo embedded in the wall, covered in blood, they were momentarily stunned.

How tragic.

"Take him to my private chamber."

"Your Majesty's private chamber?"

Yue Nu hesitated before asking, "So he will no longer be staying next to you?"

"From now on, he will live there."

"Understood."
