Chapter 306 The Soul Clan's Demise, and the Capture of a Primordial Ancient Dragon

In the main hall.

A middle-aged man stood there and bowed.

"Gu Yuan of the Ancient Clan greets Your Majesty the Empress."

As soon as Gu Yuan entered, he couldn't help but suppress the shock in his heart.

I originally thought that this Medusa Queen was at most at the same level of strength as him.

But the moment he entered and saw Medusa, he knew that she was stronger than him.

Surpassing the Dou Sheng!

This is Gu Yuan's true feeling.

Queen Medusa's strength has surpassed that of a Dou Sheng and reached the legendary Dou Di level.

This is actually just his perception.

Because in Gu Yuan's heart, the strongest is only the Dou Di.

In fact, Medusa's actual strength definitely surpasses that of a Dou Di.

As for how strong it is, it's impossible to compare since we haven't entered the world of The Great Ruler yet.

"What brings the clan chief here?"

Medusa sized up the other party, realizing that she hadn't even caused any trouble for the ancient race.

Gu Yuan hesitated for a moment, then asked cautiously, "Your Majesty, have you already reached the level of an Emperor?"

"emperor?"

Medusa suddenly realized: "You mean a Dou Di? You could say that. At least a Dou Di is just a matter of a slap in front of me."

"..."

Gu Yuan was dumbfounded, standing there dumbfounded.

One of the other person's words echoed in his mind.

A Dou Di (a powerful figure in the game) is nothing more than a slap in her face.

Is it true or not? Could it be that the Medusa Queen before us has surpassed the Dou Di level?

"Hiss~~" Gu Yuan gasped.

He suppressed his shock and bowed respectfully: "Gu Yuan dares to beg Your Majesty the Empress to grant us the favor and explain the mysteries of the Dou Di."

"Don't your ancient clans all have their own traditions and know how to break through to the Dou Di realm?"

Medusa smiled faintly, and instead of answering, asked a question in return.

Gu Yuan smiled wryly and said, "Your Majesty is joking. My Gu Clan does indeed have the lineage of a Dou Di, but it is almost impossible to break through to become a Dou Di. The bloodline cannot be upgraded."

"Bloodline?"

Medusa scoffed, "Only fools believe in bloodlines. True powerhouses don't grow by relying on bloodlines."

"Bloodline can be considered an honor from one's ancestors, but your achievements depend on yourself, not your ancestors."

She spoke in a cool tone, expressing her own opinion.

"Please enlighten me, Your Majesty!"

Gu Yuan's face was full of excitement and thirst for knowledge.

Medusa chuckled and asked, "You ancient races, do you really think you can get something for nothing?"

"Uh, I was being presumptuous."

Gu Yuan smiled awkwardly and bowed respectfully: "Gu Yuan, on behalf of the Gu Clan, is willing to join the Great Xia Empire and follow Her Majesty the Empress."

"I humbly request Your Majesty's clarification."

This was a kind of determination; in fact, Gu Yuan had been secretly observing Medusa for several years.

From initially being aloof and superior, to now humbly seeking knowledge and even willing to bring the entire ancient clan to join the Great Xia Empire.

The reason is simple: the ancient tribe was in danger.

Or perhaps the few remaining members of the other eight ancient tribes have all encountered danger.

The ancient tribe had no choice but to seek a way out, so Gu Yuan decided to meet the mysterious and powerful Medusa Queen.

"Why did your ancient clan agree to join the Great Xia Empire?"

Medusa didn't believe the other party was genuinely willing to be subservient to someone else.

Gu Yuan said bitterly, "Your Majesty, the Dou Qi Continent is facing a crisis. Among the eight ancient clans, the Soul Clan has been wiped out by an unknown evil force."

"The Thunder Clan and the Flame Clan have been wiped out and completely surrendered to that unknown force. My Ancient Clan wishes to seek the protection of Her Majesty the Empress."

Gu Yuan revealed his true thoughts.

It turns out that a major event has occurred on the Dou Qi Continent.

The Soul Clan was completely wiped out.

Yes, it was a complete annihilation. The powerful Soul Clan was wiped out overnight by an unknown force, leaving not a trace.

This caused panic among the Ancient Clan, the Thunder Clan, and the Flame Clan.

The Thunder Clan and the Flame Clan were completely swallowed up by that force, utterly powerless to resist.

"The Soul Clan was wiped out by a mysterious and evil force?"

Medusa was greatly surprised; what other forces existed in this world?

The Soul Clan has been wiped out, is that true or not?

Have you actually seen the mysterious force you mentioned?

She asked, somewhat incredulously.

Gu Yuan hurriedly said, "I once saw it from afar. The Soul Emperor of the Soul Clan, a nine-star Dou Sheng, was killed by a mysterious woman in red who was covered in flames."

"The entire Soul Clan was said to have been taken over by a mysterious treasure."

Gu Yuan said this with an air of seriousness.

"A woman in red, a mysterious treasure?"

Medusa's expression turned strange, as if she suddenly remembered something.

Could it be the ones in red?

Upon closer reflection, it's quite possible; most of the Soul Clan are soul beings.

For the Emperor Banner, it's a bunch of nourishment.

"I know about this."

Medusa nodded slightly and said, "Since your ancient race is willing to join the Great Xia Empire, that is naturally a good thing. I will protect your ancient race."

"Wait a minute, let me ask."

After she finished speaking, she raised her hand and tore open the void.

Seeing the scene before him, Gu Yuan's eyes widened.

Suddenly, a red figure appeared in the void; it was Hongyi.

She held the Emperor's Banner in one hand and the Chi You Sword in the other, with a golden Xuanyuan Sword floating behind her.

Beside her were three female ghosts: Nie Xiaoqian, Xiaoqing, and Xiaoli, plus the artificial intelligence Ahli.

"Master~~" Nie Xiaoqian was about to speak but stopped.

Her eyes darted around, and she asked respectfully, "Your Majesty, what are your orders?"

"What are you doing?"

Medusa asked softly.

The woman in red immediately replied, "Your Majesty, we are preparing to attack the ancient race's spatial world."

Upon hearing this, Gu Yuan broke out in a cold sweat.

He looked at Queen Medusa with a face full of horror, then at the red-clad figures in the void, the ones who had annihilated the Soul Clan.

"Your Majesty, have mercy!"

Gu Yuan was startled and knelt down to beg for mercy.

He finally understood.

That so-called mysterious force is actually the people of Queen Medusa in front of us.

So it turns out it was one of her people.

This terrified Gu Yuan even more, because the woman in red and her group were preparing to attack the ancient clan's spatial world.

Is there any chance of survival?

"You guys come back first."

Medusa waved.

"Yes!"

Then, the woman in red and Nie Xiaoqian and the others quickly passed through the spatial rift and arrived inside the palace hall.

Gu Yuan's heart trembled, and he lay there motionless.

Even a peak nine-star Dou Sheng wouldn't dare to have the slightest thought of resisting.

Because they are not on the same level.

Leaving aside the red-clad woman, even the three powerful figures from the Soul Clan, including Nie Xiaoqian, all exuded an imperial aura.

That's the kind of power that only those who have reached the Dou Di level possess.

With three subordinates of Dou Di level or higher, how could he not panic?

"Clan Chief Gu, please get up."

Medusa looked at Gu Yuan and gently raised her hand.

"Thank you, Your Majesty!"

Gu Yuan wiped away his cold sweat and stood up nervously.

Medusa then looked at the woman in red and asked for details.

"Your Majesty, we have discovered a race called the Soul Clan. Most of them are souls, like ghosts but not quite, so we captured them for research."

Nie Xiaoqian immediately began to explain.

"That Soul Clan member has been absorbed into the Human Emperor Banner and used as nourishment."

"Yes, and we also discovered quite a few strange flames."

Xiaoli also hurriedly said.

They recounted their experiences over the years in detail.

Medusa's expression was strange; the more she listened, the more speechless she became.

Good grief, you guys wiped out the final boss, the Soul Clan.

"By the way, Your Majesty, we also captured an old dragon that called itself the Ancient Dragon of the Void. We chased it for a long time before finally catching it. We're going to bring it back for you to barbecue and make soup."

Xiaoqing suddenly spoke up and made a comment.

"What old dragon?"

Medusa asked in surprise.

"The Ancient Dragon of the Void?"

Gu Yuan exclaimed in surprise, then immediately shut his mouth.

The man in red waved the Emperor's Banner, and a dragon descended from within.

It was none other than Zhu Kun, the old dragon emperor of the Taixu Ancient Dragon.

"Ouch~~"

As soon as Zhu Kun came out, he was about to roar when he discovered that the woman in red who had defeated and beaten him was also there.

An even more terrifying aura at the scene immediately subsided.

"What on earth do you want to do?"

Zhu Kun was somewhat angry. As a Taixu Ancient Dragon, a nine-star Dou Sheng peak expert, he had actually been captured.

"The Ancient Dragon of the Void, I wonder if it's better stewed in soup or grilled?"

Medusa's cool voice rang out.

Zhu Kun shuddered and quickly lay down on the ground.

"My old bones are tough and the meat is not tasty at all."

"Your Majesty, I am willing to pledge my allegiance to you. Please give Xiaolong a chance."

Zhu Kun immediately admitted defeat and begged for mercy.

"..."

Gu Yuan stared silently at the ancient dragon of the void.

"I will spare your life. You will serve as the guardian beast of the Great Xia Empire. But it's not unreasonable for me to need some of your Taixu Ancient Dragon's blood, is it?"

After considering it, Medusa decided to spare the old dragon's life.

"Thank you very much, Your Majesty. I am deeply grateful."

After saying that, Zhu Kun opened his mouth and spat out a ball of blood from the heart of the Ancient Void Dragon.

Medusa waved her hand and took him into the system space.

"I heard you have a daughter. Have her come to my place when you have time. I happen to need a maid."

After she finished speaking, she ignored Zhu Kun, the ancient dragon of the Void.

"Your Majesty, rest assured, I will definitely send my daughter here."

Despite his grief and indignation, Zhu Kun had no choice but to obediently agree.

Because he simply couldn't win.

"Announce to all major powers on the Douqi Continent that they shall send representatives to submit to us in one year. Those who refuse will be executed and their families wiped out."

Medusa issued the order directly.

After all, the Soul Clan has been wiped out by the Red-Clothed Women, so what are we waiting for?

Of course, the obvious solution is to directly declare dominion over the entire Dou Qi Continent.
