Collecting Powerful Girlfriends: My Invincible Harem

Cool and soft...

There was a faint but astonishing elasticity, as if a surging energy was hidden within.

Once completely freed from its constraints, it would be difficult for an ordinary person to control.

"Ahem, saving lives is my duty, not my choice. Forgive my offense..."

Feeling as if he was holding the entire world in his right hand, Xiao Chen coughed dryly to justify himself, then used his last free repair.

Endless white light immediately spread out.

Under the system's repair, the wounds of the Medusa Queen were rapidly healing.

Her face, which had been as pale as paper, was now regaining its rosy color.

"Hope this investment isn't too much of a loss..."

Feeling Medusa's life force growing stronger, Xiao Chen murmured to himself as he withdrew his right hand.

With the contract secretly forged by the system, there was no need to worry about Medusa turning against him.

He might even be able to use this life-saving favor and the system's secret contract to make the Medusa Queen one of his own!

"Mm~"

As Xiao Chen's thoughts turned, the Medusa Queen let out a soft hum.

Her previously closed eyes slowly opened.

"Wasn't I... dead?"

As her consciousness gradually revived, the Medusa Queen's face was full of confusion.

Her memory was still stuck in the past.

To break through the shackles of the Holy Realm, evolve her bloodline, and lead the Naga Tribe out of the endless desert, she had risked swallowing a cluster of Millennium Earth Core Flame. Unexpectedly, she was ambushed and failed at the last moment, getting swept into a chaotic stream by the strange fire.

Given her condition at the time, survival was impossible.

How could she still feel, and why were her injuries completely healed?

"How do you feel?"

Seeing the Medusa Queen, her injuries fully healed, standing up and swaying her snake tail, Xiao Chen asked with a gentle smile.

Unexpectedly, after her recovery, the Medusa Queen exuded an indescribable aura.

It made him a bit nervous inside, but he maintained a calm exterior.

Whether he could win over the Medusa Queen depended on whether he could bluff her now.

"Did you save me?"

Hearing Xiao Chen's words, the Medusa Queen's eyes narrowed slightly, locking onto him.

Seeing Xiao Chen, she couldn't help but be stunned.

She had never had a good impression of human men, but for some reason, this young human man gave her a sense of familiarity?!

This puzzled her...

"You suddenly tore through space and fell into the Xiao Family, severely injured and on the brink of death.

Fortunately, I had special healing methods, which allowed you to narrowly escape death."

Xiao Chen smiled faintly, speaking with an air of nonchalance.

This casual demeanor gave him a bit of a sage-like presence.

This made Medusa's pupils contract sharply, looking at Xiao Chen with suspicion.

In her perception, Xiao Chen only had the cultivation of the Spirit Aperture Realm, yet he could pull her back from death.

Such an ability, even a Heavenly Being Realm expert, unless proficient in medical arts, couldn't achieve.

But this young human did.

Not only did he save her life, but he also healed all her injuries. What kind of divine means was this?!

As she felt shocked and puzzled inside, Xiao Chen became increasingly mysterious in her heart.

While Medusa was internally turbulent, Xiao Chen paused and continued with a glint in his eye.

"Although your injuries have healed, your primordial energy has dissipated, causing your cultivation to fall.

To restore your previous cultivation, it will take quite some time. During this period, why not stay in the Xiao Family..."

As the saying goes, the closer you are to the water, the sooner you get the moon.

If he could keep the Medusa Queen by his side, he might have a chance to make her his own in the future.

Moreover, he was not yet fully fledged and had recently made enemies.

With the Medusa Queen's protection, solving problems would be much easier.

"The Naga Tribe and humans have always been at odds. If I stay by your side, I might bring you trouble."

Medusa hesitated, her voice tinged with concern.

"No worries. I will find a way to conceal your identity. As long as your mortal enemies don't appear, no one will know you are the Medusa Queen."

Xiao Chen waved his hand nonchalantly.

As long as he could gather some resources to exchange for points, he could temporarily help the Medusa Queen transform.

By then, as long as her appearance was no different from a human's and she wore a veil, who would know she was the Medusa Queen, except her closest enemies?

"In that case, I will trouble you for a while." After a moment of silence, Medusa spoke.

The Desolate State was tens of millions of miles away from the endless desert. To return, she would have to pass through the human core regions.

With her cultivation temporarily fallen to the Nirvana Realm, crossing the Great Qian Dynasty was extremely risky.

So, staying to recuperate and restore her cultivation to its peak was the wisest choice.

"By the way, my name is Xiao Chen. What's your real name?"

Hearing the Medusa Queen's response, Xiao Chen smiled and casually asked.

The world only knew the Naga Tribe had a Medusa Queen, but no one knew her real name.

The name Medusa was a title passed down among the Naga Tribe queens.

So Xiao Chen was curious about the Medusa Queen's real name.

"I... don't have a name."

Medusa was slightly taken aback, replying with some sadness.

Her parents had died when she was born.

Moreover, she inherited the bloodline of the Ancient Sky-Devouring Python, taking on the name Medusa at birth.

So she never had a real name like others.

"Uh, no name?"

Hearing Medusa's answer, Xiao Chen felt a bit awkward.

"How about... Cai Yan?"

"Calling you Medusa all the time feels a bit distant."

"Cai Yan?"

Hearing the name Xiao Chen gave her, the Medusa Queen was slightly stunned.

For some reason, she didn't dislike the name, but rather felt a strange fondness for it.

"Cai Yan... it's a nice name."

After a moment of silence, Medusa didn't reject the name, a faint smile appearing on her cold face.

The name Medusa represented more of a responsibility and shackle to her.

But now, the name Xiao Chen gave her seemed to give her life a soul of her own, beyond living for her people.

So, she liked the name.

"Haha, as long as you don't mind."

Seeing the Medusa Queen, who ruled the entire Naga Tribe and was feared by the Seven Great Empires of the Eastern Wilderness, not showing much aloofness in front of him, Xiao Chen smiled faintly, feeling quite pleased.

It seemed the Medusa Queen had a good impression of him.

With some time and effort, he might have a chance to win her over, like Xu Xian becoming a Snake Fucker.

Of course, this thought couldn't be revealed. It was just a secret fantasy for now.

After a pause, Xiao Chen continued.

"I will arrange a side room for Miss Cai Yan. You can recover your cultivation in the Xiao Family during this time. Unless absolutely necessary, I won't disturb you.

Of course... If I encounter any trouble I can't handle, I hope Miss Cai Yan won't hesitate to lend a hand."
