BTTH: Starting from Capturing the Goddess-Chapter 94 - 98 – The Butterfly Emerges from Seclusion - Part 1

Chen Mo took a quick look inside the jade bottle he had just refined—and instantly felt a wave of dread. The immense, terrifying power sealed within it made his heart tremble.

With his current strength, there was no way he could absorb it all at once.

But if he divided this drop of the Ancient Undying Dragon-Serpent's blood essence into three parts, that might just work.

One portion for himself, one for his precious Queen, and the last for Die.

With that allocation, it was practically perfect.

After all, this Ancient Undying Dragon-Serpent was leagues stronger than the Seven-Colored Heaven-Swallowing Python.

If Queen Medusa were to devour it, given her current realm, wouldn't her evolution and breakthrough be a walk in the park?

Of course, that wasn't even the most important part.

The most important part was... once she evolved, she might be able to skip that awkward juvenile snake phase and directly transform into human form.

And if she had legs... then...

No. Stop. Hold it.

He was starting to lose control of his thoughts.

Chen Mo, you pervert. You're just lusting after the Queen's body. Shameless!

Shaking those thoughts away, Chen Mo quickly divided the Ancient Undying Dragon-Serpent's blood essence into three smaller jade bottles.

To prevent even a trace of energy from leaking, he sealed them tightly and stored them in his backpack.

He'd give Queen Medusa her share later that night.

As for his own, he had just had a breakthrough recently—there was no rush. He could wait a few days.

Then there was the seventh-grade Yin-Yang Dragon Transformation Pill. It was said that if someone consumed it, and later suffered a severe injury or stood on the verge of death, the pill could provide a miraculous opportunity for rebirth.

This so-called rebirth wasn't just about healing—it was about breaking through one's limits and undergoing true transformation. Both the body and Dou Qi could take a major leap forward.

Chen Mo swallowed the pill without hesitation.

Strangely, there wasn't any immediate change.

As night fell, a silver moon hung high in the sky.

The Queen still hadn't returned. Growing slightly anxious, Chen Mo stepped out of the bedchamber and made his way toward the study where Queen Medusa usually handled her affairs.

Her daily life was pretty monotonous, strictly moving between three places: the bedchamber, the main hall, and the study.

Every now and then, she would also patrol the city walls to inspect the guards.

It was a dull and tiresome routine.

She was like a tireless machine, constantly working to manage the affairs of the snake-people tribe.

Chen Mo had once joked, "Queen baby, haven't you ever thought of taking a break?"

Her reply had been calm and resolute:

"The moment I chose to protect my sister, I was already prepared to shoulder the entire burden of the snake-people tribe. I'll lead them to true strength—my way."

The hidden meaning was clear: until the snake-people tribe rose to true prominence, she didn't dare let her guard down for even a moment.

The only times she had let herself slack off... were because of Chen Mo—once for the trip to the Magical Beast Forest, and once to visit the imperial capital of the Jia Ma Empire.

Crossing a few long corridors, Chen Mo arrived at the study.

At that moment, Yue Mei—wearing a fitted outfit—was sashaying out, her slender serpentine waist swaying gracefully.

Upon seeing Chen Mo, a trace of joy flickered in her eyes. She raised her hand to sweep back her long hair, about to greet him—

Only for Chen Mo to walk right past her without so much as a glance.

"You human—!" Yue Mei's pride took a massive blow, her body trembling slightly in frustration.

She fumed quietly outside the study for a moment before stomping off, gritting her teeth.

Inside, Queen Medusa didn't even look up as she continued reviewing the final memorial.

"What brings you here?"

Just from the sound of his footsteps, she already knew it was him.

"Queen baby, how'd you know it was me?"

Chen Mo casually sat at the edge of her desk, picking up a finished document she had already dealt with and giving it a brief glance before setting it down.

Queen Medusa finally paused her work and looked up at him coldly. "Did I not say you're only allowed to call me that in private?"

Chen Mo glanced around the room. "But it is private, isn't it? Just you and me."

Queen Medusa narrowed her eyes. "So, why are you here?"

"I wanted to give you a surprise. But no rush, finish your work first."

He hopped off the desk and wandered over to a bookshelf, flipping through a random book as if to say, "Go ahead, don't mind me."

Queen Medusa felt a flutter in her chest, though her expression remained impassive.

Still, she started working significantly faster.

A single incense stick's worth of time passed.

"Let's go," she said flatly.

"Right away!" Chen Mo eagerly stepped forward and reached for her waist.

Queen Medusa slapped his hand away. "No touching in public."

"But there's no one else here!"

Chen Mo didn't give her a chance to refuse. He wrapped his arm around her slender waist.

With cheeks burning, Queen Medusa gritted her teeth, grabbed him, and turned into a streak of red light that flew toward her bedchamber.

Once inside, she dropped him and immediately pushed his hand away. "So, what's the surprise?"

"Can't I tell you while we're in bed?" Chen Mo asked with a mischievous grin.

Queen Medusa's expression turned frosty. "Not another outfit for me to try on, is it?"

Chen Mo: "..."

Ouch.

So that's what she thought of him?

He felt like crying.

Without another word, he scooped her up and gently carried her to the soft couch. "Queen baby, I promise this time the surprise is actually serious."

"You always bring serious things," she said coolly, wrapping her arms around his neck. "But you—I'm not so sure about."

"I'm serious too."

After gently laying her down, Chen Mo kicked off his shoes and with a roll, positioned himself over her.

"You sure about that?" she asked, staring coldly into his eyes.

"Absolutely."

And then—he kissed her.

After some time, Chen Mo lay beside her, took out a small jade bottle from his backpack, and handed it to her. "Here, take a look."

Queen Medusa's lips were slightly swollen. She accepted the bottle half-doubtfully, pulled out the stopper, and peeked inside.

Suddenly—a powerful, ancient pressure erupted from within, nearly suffocating her.

She quickly resealed the bottle, her face filled with shock. "What... is this?"

"The blood essence of the Ancient Undying Dragon-Serpent," Chen Mo replied, then repeated the exact description the system had given him.

Queen Medusa was stunned. All this talk about descendants of Nuwa, Ancestral Dragons... none of it made any sense to her.

She only knew of the Taixu Ancient Dragon clan among the dragon race.

Still, she could feel it. That faint drop of blood essence—if consumed—would allow her to break through a barrier her tribe had always considered mythical.

"You... you're really giving this to me?"

It was simply too precious. Queen Medusa hesitated.

"Of course. You're my Queen baby. If not for you, then who?"

Then, without warning, he kissed her again.

"Mmm..."

If only my sister could forget you... how nice that would be.
