BTTH: Starting from Capturing the Goddess-Chapter 79 - 83 – Styling Her Majesty’s Hair

As Chen Mo and the others made their way back to the Tagor Desert...

Over in the Black-Corner Region—

Several figures shot into the sky, heading swiftly in the direction of the Tagor Desert.

The next day.

After flying for an entire afternoon and night—

By the time dawn broke, the three of them had finally arrived back at the Tagor Desert.

Once there, Queen Medusa no longer concealed her identity.

She removed her hood and the white jade mask, revealing her enchantingly seductive face in full.

"Your Majesty... it really is you!"

The snake-woman, wrapped in Queen Medusa's Dou Qi as they flew, was instantly overwhelmed with emotion. She quickly bowed.

"Snake-woman Ling Qi, pays respects to Her Majesty!"

Queen Medusa simply gave a nod and said nothing more.

Chen Mo offered a brief introduction of himself.

Then silence fell between the three of them.

With Ling Qi present, Chen Mo couldn't very well start flirting with Queen Medusa again.

Not long after, they arrived at the Snake-People's Royal City.

Ling Qi was from the Moonshadow Tribe.

Some time ago, she had been abducted by mercenaries while out on a mission.

Because of her beauty, she was considered a "premium product" among the group of captured snake-women. After being sold and resold, she was eventually trafficked to the capital of the Jia Ma Empire.

She was originally going to be auctioned off at the Miteer Auction House—

But was seized by Lei Le for his own personal desires.

Upon returning, Queen Medusa ordered Yue Nu to temporarily arrange lodging for Ling Qi and then had Yue Mei come retrieve her.

From Ling Qi, Queen Medusa also learned about a large snake-woman trafficking ring operating out of Desert City.

Without hesitation, she dispatched Hua She'er with a team to wipe them out.

In the royal palace—

After returning, Queen Medusa went straight to the great hall to handle state affairs.

Although the entire round-trip had taken less than three days...

A significant backlog of official business had piled up in her absence, all of which required her personal attention.

Inside the bedchamber—

Chen Mo squatted by the bedside, carefully sorting through the dresses and jewelry he had purchased earlier.

He had separated them by style:

For Queen Medusa—who exuded seductive elegance—he had chosen more alluring outfits.

Things like a purple lace gown, a tight-fitting red mini-dress, and...

...a red brocade koi-patterned corset.

He had bought that last one right in front of Queen Medusa. She had only given him a glare and said nothing.

So he figured, with a bit of coaxing, he might one day see her wear it.

There was also the red plum blossom dudou (belly wrap).

He hadn't seen her wear one yet—

But with her affection already at 97, the chance would come eventually.

As for Die, he went with a more cute and sweet style.

They couldn't dress the same, after all.

Chen Mo had also secretly bought her a gemstone necklace.

Couldn't show favoritism, right?

What Queen Medusa had, Die should also have.

He had even picked up cosmetics—lip rouge, brow pencils, and more.

Queen Medusa didn't usually wear makeup, but Chen Mo figured...

Hey, I'm bored anyway.

Who knew how long he'd be staying in the Snake-People's territory?

Might as well find some fun for himself.

Helping Her Majesty do her eyebrows and makeup—now that's fun, isn't it?

As for whether Queen Medusa was willing—

Chen Mo wasn't too worried.

He had discovered that, as long as he didn't cross any lines, light physical contact and acts of intimacy didn't provoke her like before.

After organizing everything—

Chen Mo pulled out a wooden tub from his storage ring, filled it with water, and took a bath inside the palace.

While bathing, he opened his status panel:

He also opened his inventory:

Looking at that stacked panel—

Chen Mo felt his life was pretty much perfect.

He didn't have grand ambitions.

Just embrace a few beauties, then find a beautiful place to lay low and live in peace.

A man should be able to switch seamlessly between wolf and lamb.

Back in the Jia Ma Empire, Chen Mo had played the wolf once—but Queen Medusa completely stole the spotlight.

Now, he was back to playing the lamb.

As night fell—

Queen Medusa finished her state affairs and returned to the bedchamber.

Her hair was still damp, and her stunning face was tinged with a healthy blush.

Under the dim glow of candlelight, her fair jade-like neck made her look even more alluring.

Chen Mo's eyes lit up immediately.

Her Majesty just took a nice bath, huh?

He didn't ask if she was tired like before.

As soon as Queen Medusa sat down on the throne, Chen Mo quickly walked over and began massaging her shoulders and back.

Then, without hesitation, he sat beside her, turned her to face away, and gently circulated his Dou Qi—

Using it to help dry her long hair.

What should've taken a few seconds with Dou Qi—

Chen Mo intentionally dragged out, turning it into a personalized blow-drying session.

He was gentle. Focused.

The soft breeze stirred Queen Medusa's silky hair.

Feeling the tenderness in his touch, waves stirred in her heart.

She lay partially slumped over the armrest, letting Chen Mo do as he pleased—savoring the cozy warmth of the moment.

"Your Majesty," Chen Mo said, still blow-drying, "the way you handled things at the Miteer Auction House was just... stunning."

As the warm wind carried the scent of her hair to him, he inhaled deeply, a little too excited.

It was meant as a compliment.

But Queen Medusa coldly snorted, "Did you enjoy her legs?"

She had clearly noticed Chen Mo's gaze lingering on Ya Fei's legs for several seconds.

She was... not happy about it.

Because she didn't have those kinds of legs—and couldn't even be jealous properly.

"Uhh..."

What does this have to do with legs?

This wave of jealousy felt so random.

Chen Mo couldn't understand a woman's heart. Cursing himself for bringing it up, he quickly said, "Not at all. They weren't even good-looking."

"Not good-looking, and you stared for that long?" Queen Medusa replied icily.

Chen Mo had no words.

Once her hair was dry, he began braiding it into a Flying Immortal Bun.

Don't ask how he knew how to do it.

But once he finished, Chen Mo realized the style didn't suit her at all.

So, he undid it and redid it as a Lingyun Bun, then secured it with the golden phoenix hairpin he had bought earlier.

He handed her a bronze mirror and said:

"Your Majesty, what do you think? Beautiful, right?

By the way, this is the first time I've ever blown-dried and styled someone's hair. Shouldn't I get some kind of reward?"
