Chapter 373
Chapter 373
Queen Medusa was extremely curious about this world and eager to understand everything about it.
She found that it was indeed a world vastly different from her own.
The customs and people were all distinct.
Firstly, in terms of personnel management, her world relied mainly on sects and noble families, while this place relied primarily on the state.
There were so many states here, just the ones with known names numbered five to six hundred.
There were also many small kingdoms that cannot be named.
Combined, the number of these states exceeded a thousand.
Moreover, they had a clear hierarchical classification for states: small kingdoms, great kingdoms, dynasties, and empires.
Among them, the state ruled by her senior, Great Xia, was the only Celestial Empire in the world to which all nations paid homage.
It is precisely these nations that maintain the normal functioning of the entire world.
Although there are rivers and lakes factions, they do not play a leading role.
The most influential in the world are none other than the Taoist Sect, Buddhist Sect, and Demon Sect.
They all prioritize heritage and are not particularly concerned with managing the state or the populace.
In addition to this, she discovered that the cultivation practices here were entirely different from those in her own world.
Here, cultivation involves internal strength and True Qi, collectively known as martial arts, with levels ranging from Acquired Realm Experts, Innate Masters, Grandmasters, Great Grandmasters, to Supreme Grandmasters.
Among these, a Grandmaster is equivalent to a Battle Emperor, a Great Grandmaster to a Battle Ancestor, and a Supreme Grandmaster to a Battle Venerate.
It seems that the level of cultivation in this world might not be as advanced as in her own, but she felt that the cultivation here was more refined, with the bodys meridians and acupoints being fully developed.
Moreover, upon reaching the realm of Grandmaster, one begins to comprehend ones own martial path and find ones own way of cultivation.
This aspect was much better than her own world, where she had reached the level of Battle Emperor without understanding what martial arts truly were, and many others were also unaware.
They only knew how to cultivate powerful fighting techniques or consume pills and heavenly treasures to enhance themselves.
It must be due to the world itself!
Queen Medusa mused to herself: Senior said that every world has its own rules of operation and also its limits of what it can contain!
Just as shallow waters cannot nurture a dragon, nor can an ordinary birds nest raise a phoenix, this world is too small, thus limiting their growth! If they were in a vast world, they might quickly be able to display their elegance and prowess!
At the same time, she made a huge discovery.
She found that Senior, powerful enough to break through world barriers, was seen by everyone as a powerless young Emperor.
Although he possessed awe-inspiring talents for governance, he absolutely lacked any personal strength.
Senior, youre truly well hidden!
Queen Medusas lips twitched slightly.
To have such terrifying strength and yet concealed so deeply!
If it were her, she would have wanted the whole world to know.
After some thought, she understood a bit.
The reason he hid his strength must be because there are even more powerful enemies in this world that could threaten him.
Hence, the soul seal Lin Beifan placed on her was to prevent others from discovering this.
With this realization, she put away her underestimation.
This world was definitely not as simple as it appeared on the surface. She also had to be careful in her actions to avoid making a mistake.
After understanding the general situation of the world, she began to observe Great Xia.
Great Xia truly deserved to be the number one Empire in the world, not only possessing the widest land but also having the largest population.
In terms of military strength and resources, it was all top-tier.
And such a super-level Empire was developed by Senior in just a few years, a feat that could be called a miracle.
Seniors talent for governance is as terrifying as his martial arts talent! Queen Medusa deeply admired.
If it were her, she could never achieve this in her lifetime. Even in her own world, no one could do it.
Its because she noticed that the citizens of Great Xia seemed to be living well.
Almost everyone had food, work, and a home, living peacefully and happily.
Although there were many poor people, their eyes shone with light, seemingly full of hope, as if they could lead the life they desired with enough effort.
This was a prosperity she had never seen in her original world.
In her world, the strong were revered, and ordinary common people could only live in subservience, leading lives worse than those of pigs and dogs.
But here, they could live with dignity.
At this moment, Queen Medusa arrived at a vast expanse of farmland.
Her stunning beauty and enchanting figure drew the eyes of everyone present.
What a beautiful woman!
Could she possibly be a fairy from heaven?
I think Im in love!
Many were so mesmerized that they forgot about their work.
Queen Medusa was already accustomed to such reactions.
She turned to an old farmer beside her and asked, Old man, I have a few questions for you, and I hope you can answer them truthfully!
Sure, sure ask away, Ill answer anything! The old farmer nodded dumbly, thinking that the woman before him was a million times more beautiful than his wife at home.
Queen Medusa asked calmly, How do you find life these days?
Life couldnt be better! the old farmer rambled on.
Miss, let me tell you, I earn 200 wen a month from my work here, very stable! Ive got enough grain stored at home to last two years! I also own a cement house, some good cloth, and fifty or sixty jin of cured meat
He seemed eager to boast about all his possessions.
Queen Medusa then asked, What about compared to the past?
Dont get me started on the past. Those were inhumane times! the old farmer immediately began to complain.
I wont lie to you, miss. I actually fled here to escape disaster. When I first arrived here as a refugee, I had nothing, and I nearly lost my life! Thankfully, His Majesty was kind and provided us with food and work. Otherwise, I wouldnt have survived, let alone have all this
Queen Medusa nodded, sensing that everything he said was true.
After thanking him, she left the place.
The old farmer, left behind, watched Queen Medusas departing figure, lost in thought. Then, someone came over, snapped him out of it, and laughed, Stop daydreaming! A woman like that is only fit for His Majesty!
The old farmer sighed, picked up his hoe, and said dispiritedly, Everyone, stop gawking and get back to work!
Queen Medusa left in a pleasant mood.
Initially, she had sought refuge with Lin Beifan, simply wishing for his protection.
But now, she had greater aspirations. She hoped her Snake-People tribe could enjoy increasingly better lives, just like the citizens of Great Xia.
Before long, she left Great Xia to see the world beyond.
To her surprise, she found that the world outside was the complete opposite of Great Xia.
While Great Xia was thriving and its people lived in peace and happiness, it was a world of despair where people could barely survive outside.
Considering that she was in a certain Empires capital city, she couldnt imagine what the situation was like in other countries.
Just then, a group of young masters approached, their eyes lighting up at the sight of Queen Medusa, and they immediately surrounded her.
What a beautiful lady. May I ask your surname and where youre from?
Girl, youre so beautiful. Are you married yet? Would you consider someone like me?
