Chapter 1572

Zhao Chi smiled and said, "Go ahead and say it."

The female villagers immediately began talking all at once.

"Are you Lord Zhao Chi? Are you Lord Gu Qing?"

"We truly are loyal to both lords at once; it's truly an honor to meet you."

"Thank you both, my lords, for accepting us and even helping us set up such excellent genes."

"Yes, we are all very grateful."

As the few female villagers spoke, they all began expressing their thanks.

Gu Qing smiled and said, "Everything you've said is Lord Zhao Chi's credit. I too have received his grace. Remember this: from now on, loyalty to Lord Zhao Chi comes first — that will never change."

The few new villagers immediately bowed to Zhao Chi.

Zhao Chi politely returned the courtesy.

Zhao Chi asked, "Can you spin silk now? Could you spin some out for me to see?"

The ten female villagers looked at one another, then shyly squatted down together.

Pss pss pss.

They caught it with their hands — all of it was a faint yellow silk.

Then they all looked up at Zhao Chi, waiting for his next instruction.

Zhao Chi was stunned.

Why were they all spinning silk like that?

Gu Qing laughed and said, "My lord, if you had said 'spit silk,' they would have spat it out with their mouths. But since you said 'spin silk,' of course they would spin silk this way."

So it was a command issue…

Zhao Chi said helplessly, "Sorry, my command was the problem. All of you, stand up — let me look at these silk threads."

The ten female villagers stood up together and gently cupped the silk threads in both hands, offering them up.

He touched them — they were still warm.

The viscosity was extremely strong.

It was indeed on the same level as Gu Qing's silk threads.

Gu Qing smiled and said, "My lord, should we have them all change class to soldiers? In the future, not only will there be more materials, but combat will also have more variations and tactical arrangements."

Zhao Chi said, satisfied, "Right. We'll discuss it properly later. They've only just arrived, no need to rush."

Gu Qing nodded, and smiled at the female villagers: "Alright, everyone has just arrived. I have other things I need to tell you. Everyone, come to Penglai Town."

The few female villagers were completely baffled.

"Penglai Town? Where is it?"

"We can't go — we can't find it."

"How do we get to Penglai Town?"

Gu Qing asked, "My lord, do you still need to open the permissions?"

"Oh, right — just a moment."

As Zhao Chi opened the permissions, all the new villagers found their teleportation target.

Everyone immediately teleported back.

Gu Qing took them straight to bathe and eat, while carrying out her briefing at the same time.

Zhao Chi, meanwhile, still had a few questions.

Now that the Taoyuan Silk Clan was a new race, it was like the relationship between Shi Laimu and the Venomous Shi Laimu.

In the future, when there were new genes, would he still be able to improve them?

If he couldn't improve them, that would not be good.

Although they were currently stronger than the Taoyuan Humans, if gene additions were to stop, they might quickly be surpassed by the Taoyuan Humans.

That would truly be rather inconvenient.

The second question was about Gu Qing.

After Gu Qing established the Taoyuan Silk Clan today, she became the Race Lord.

In the future, would he still be able to give Gu Qing new gene improvements?

If he could, could it also be synced to the Taoyuan Silk Clan?

And the Spider Queen's silk gland was still able to grow — when it grew again later, would the Taoyuan Silk Clan enjoy the benefit in sync?

Zhao Chi didn't know who to ask about these matters.

Perhaps he could ask Li Ruanyu?

Li Ruanyu had been nobility before; she should know quite a lot about these situations.

And she could absolutely be trusted…

But…

Zhao Chi still didn't really want to go find her.

After all, this involved far too many of his own affairs.

To get clear answers, he would first have to explain things clearly.

It was like going to see a doctor — you definitely have to describe all your symptoms clearly before the doctor can make a targeted diagnosis.

If you hide your condition, even a divine physician would find it hard to treat you.

To get precise answers, he would definitely have to tell Li Ruanyu a great deal of his own information before Li Ruanyu could give him a more precise explanation.

If he spoke vaguely, or even hid information, Li Ruanyu would also find it hard to analyze his situation in a targeted way.

So…
