A Diary of a Character in Battle Through the Heavens! The Female Characters Have Gone Wrong!

Chapter 89 Fear of Medusa Syndrome

Why not ask Hai Bodong?
Her defeated opponent was not someone Medusa took seriously.

[Hai Bodong should probably give up. Given Cai Lin's personality, he wouldn't take a defeated opponent seriously.]

Although having a Dou Huang as a henchman shows I have some power behind me, in Cai Lin's heart, it doesn't carry as much weight as my ability to fight opponents of higher levels.

"You really know me." Medusa licked her red lips, slowly got up and stretched.

Her alluring figure exudes the ultimate charm of a mature woman at this moment.

[Moreover, since Hai Bodong's cultivation level was sealed by Cai Lin decades ago, he can only exert the strength of a Dou Ling. He has also suffered from the torment of the Snake Sealing Curse and has developed Medusa Queen Fear Syndrome, so he can't even withstand a single glance from her.]

Girls: "."

She was a Dou Huang decades ago, but she was sealed and could only exert the strength of a Dou Ling. Who wouldn't think Medusa is a nightmare?
[I remember now, because of this syndrome, Hai Bodong later greatly admired Ya Fei.]

"Admire me?" Ya Fei blinked, a question lingering in her mind: "Why?"

Does she really have the guts to challenge Queen Medusa?

[When Xiao Yanzi and I returned to the Jia Ma Empire from Canaan Academy, intending to destroy the Yunlan Sect, we happened to encounter the Yunlan Sect's plan to exterminate the Xiao family, who were being protected by the Mittel family, and they weren't going to spare the Mittel family either.]

Fortunately, I arrived in time with my men and saved Hai Bodong and the others. Afterwards, I plan to gather the royal family, the alchemist guild, and other forces to form an alliance to deal with the Yunlan Sect.

Yun Yun, who had secretly arrived near Stone Desert City, intending to lie in wait and find an opportunity to "accidentally" bump into someone, thought: "..."

This enemy really knows how to play the game. If Chu Xiao's rebirth had happened any later, she wouldn't have needed to try to save him.

[Of course, I let Sister Yafei handle this matter. She's used to teasing me, so I didn't say anything. But this attitude and my complete trust in Sister Yafei made Cailin, who has a marital relationship with me and already has quite a few feelings for me, jealous.]

[Sister Yafei is a shrewd person. At the time, I hadn't noticed, but she immediately saw that Cailin treated me differently. So she deliberately acted close to me to provoke her, which scared Hai Bodong half to death. Thinking about it now, it's really funny.]

"Interesting, indeed interesting."

"I love reading this kind of thing, so write more of it."

Cao Ying sat in the courtyard, enthusiastically eating melons, her pretty little eyes sparkling with curiosity.

"I'm really that brave." Ya Fei was somewhat impressed with herself, and took out her beauty fan and waved it gently: "Then my relationship with Brother Chu Xiao must be excellent, and I'm sure he will protect me."

"Could it be that I played a part in Queen Medusa's eventual decision to marry him?"

Inside the holy city of the Serpent People, Medusa narrowed her long, narrow eyes: "You think I'd be jealous?"

She would never have such feelings. Faced with Ya Fei's provocation, she would only take action to resolve the situation, absolutely!
[To make Cai Lin think I have power, it would be better to have Xun'er assign Elder Ling to me as a bodyguard. A peak-level Dark Attribute Dou Huang would be much more intimidating.]

However, this feels like I'm making Xun'er do all the work to help me pursue Medusa.

[My wife should help me pursue her? Forget it, I don't want to upset Xun'er.]

"Pursue."

High in the sky, Xun'er slightly pursed her lips.

Pursuing nature is impossible, but conquering it is not a problem.

It's just keeping a pet snake at home, you can afford it!

"anyone there?"

Chu Xiao walked into the map shop and spoke loudly.

He wrote so much partly to stir up the emotions of the copy owners and to deepen his impression on Xun'er, Medusa, and the other girls.

Ya Fei, Xun Er, and Medusa all have copies of the notes, so he will definitely give them special attention.

At the same time, it was also a test, to see if Hai Bodong had any notes.

The shop interior is not very spacious, with a moonstone inlaid at each end, making the shop extremely bright.

There was no one in the shop at the moment. Chu Xiao spoke to lure Hai Bodong out. While waiting, he glanced at the large number of maps on the counter and then walked straight to an old wooden shelf in the corner of the shop. The shelf was full of holes from decaying wood, clearly indicating that it was quite old. It was piled with yellowed maps, many of which had broken surfaces. Chu Xiao picked up a few and flipped through them, and could smell a faint musty odor.

Before long, he found one of his targets for this trip: a copy of a picture that was only the size of a palm, clearly not complete, and seemed to have been cut in half.

"what are you looking for?"

A voice suddenly sounded behind Chu Xiao.

He turned his head and saw an old man with a full head of silver hair walk out. There was a horrifying scar on his left cheek and the corner of his eye. Although his expression was very peaceful, he still gave people a very fierce feeling.

"This item," Chu Xiao said, holding up the incomplete map in his hand, "does the old gentleman have any left?"

"You know about this incomplete map?" Hai Bodong's eyes sharpened, and his mood was no longer calm.

Back then, he ended up in this predicament because he tried to snatch this fragment from Medusa.

Despite decades of research, he still gained nothing; his cultivation level remained unchanged, and he was frequently tormented by the seal.

He would never let anyone who knew the secret behind the incomplete map go easily.

"Knowing a little is useless to you, sir," Chu Xiao said with a slight smile. "I wonder if you could sell it to me?"

"Tell me what secrets are behind this first." Hai Bodong didn't expect Chu Xiao to be so honest, so he took the opportunity to ask.

"That won't do. Secrets are only valuable when few people know them," Chu Xiao shook his head and refused.

“Then I absolutely will not sell this ancient map.” Hai Bodong said sternly, “You are not welcome here either. Leave the ancient map and leave immediately.”

“Or,” Hai Bodong’s smile turned playful, “you could also try to snatch it. At your age, you actually have the cultivation of a Great Dou Master. You must be a genius from some powerful force. Could you be a high-ranking disciple of the Yunlan Sect?”

"I have absolutely no connection with the Yunlan Sect." Chu Xiao shook his head. "The current sect leader, Yun Yun, wants to take on disciples on behalf of Master Yun Shan, but I don't intend to accept."

Hai Bodong's lips curled into a sneer, and he said coldly, "Please leave. Don't make me say it a third time."

He thought Chu Xiao might be delirious and didn't want to bother with him anymore.

"If you really want me to leave, I won't sell no matter what price you offer?" Chu Xiao's eyes turned playful.

"You can't offer me a price that will tempt me!" A chill gradually emanated from Hai Bodong, his actions speaking volumes.

He didn't think Chu Xiao could offer him something that would tempt him. Being a young Grand Dou Master only represented his talent, not his strength and ability.

As for the possibility that he might come from a powerful family, he would never come here.

"Alright." Chu Xiao pretended to put down the ancient map: "I originally wanted to help you remove the curse mark set by Queen Medusa in your body and restore your Dou Huang strength, but it seems that I don't need to."

He was now certain that Hai Bodong did not have a copy of the notes.

"What did you say?!" Hai Bodong's aura changed drastically, and his breathing became rapid.

Chu Xiao turned to leave.

"Wait a minute!" Hai Bodong appeared in front of him in a flash, a smile plastered on his face: "Can you really help me break the snake seal curse?"

"Didn't you say you couldn't offer a price that would tempt you?" Chu Xiao asked with a playful look in his eyes.

“Yes, of course we can.” Hai Bodong gestured for us to come in: “Distinguished guest, please come in and we can discuss this in detail.”

Chu Xiao didn't stand on ceremony and turned to walk into the house.

Hai Bodong waved his hand to close the shop door, then followed with a look of anticipation on his face.

Meanwhile, in the Serpent People tribe, Medusa completed resource allocation and made arrangements, and could now safely venture out for a period of time.

Just as she reached high altitude, her expression suddenly changed as she looked into the distance: "Who!?"
