Chapter 1898: Rapid Development (18)
Very impressive.
Su Qin had already broken through her base stats not long ago.
Who would have thought she'd break through again.
Only last time it was Physique and Strength, this time it's Agility and Intelligence.
Zhao Chi agreed, "Aren't your stats already high? They're very high already, especially Agility—you're already at 8? Going from 7 to 8 isn't easy, is it? You actually broke through? That's amazing."
Su Qin said happily, "That's why I really am working hard at training. Agility is my main stat, so of course I practice it the hardest, but it was also the last to break through. Of course, it's all thanks to your pajamas and the Experience Fruit—otherwise it wouldn't have happened this fast."
The reasoning was indeed sound.
But something still wasn't right.
Breaking through 8 points in a base stat couldn't originally be achieved by time alone.
It could only be said that Su Qin had a natural talent for it to begin with, and with Zhao Chi's help, she was able to show her strength faster.
She herself was the key.
Zhao Chi said softly, "It's mainly your own effort. I eat Experience Fruit every day too, and wear the pajamas every day, but my stats break through very slowly."
Su Qin smiled, "You've only been a Lord for a few months. I've been training for over a year—it's different. You'll definitely break through all of them soon too."
"Alright, I'll take your lucky words."
"Zhao Chi, I'm still under a lot of pressure. What should I do?"
"It's fine. Don't think of it as me giving you these outfits—just think of it as me outfitting my own elven female soldiers, and you're just my attached female hero. Wouldn't that work?"
"Huh?" Su Qin looked at Zhao Chi in surprise.
Suddenly she broke into a charming smile: "Seems like it is. Thinking about it that way, I really can accept it much more easily."
Zhao Chi laughed, "That's good then."
Su Qin nestled against Zhao Chi's chest: "I really envy Sister Gu Qing and the others. If only I really were your female hero—then I could accept the things you give me with a clear conscience."
Zhao Chi shook his head: "You don't need to envy them. They actually envy you too. And… Gu Qing already is the same as you now."
"The same as me?"
"That's right."
Zhao Chi told Su Qin about Gu Qing's situation.
Su Qin said in astonishment: "What? Sister Gu Qing is already a person of the Greater World? Tang Ruan and the others might also become people of the Greater World?"
"Right, so there's actually no difference between you. They can accept it with a clear conscience, and so can you. There's no difference between you."
"Really? That's unbelievable."
Zhao Chi nodded and asked: "Su Qin, if there's a chance, would you be willing to become my subordinate? I mean, become a human like Gu Qing and the others—a Taoyuan human?"
"Of course! Do you even need to ask? I've always been willing… but is it possible?"
"Really? I want to hear your true thoughts."
"These are my true thoughts. I want to be like them too—soft and sweet-smelling. Most importantly, their genes are very strong. If I could be that strong, I could serve you better. Right now I can only train hard every day to raise my stats, but it's really so slow."
"Alright, but this is only a possibility. I might not be able to do it. If it doesn't work, don't be disappointed."
Su Qin laughed: "You're so amazing, you'll definitely be able to. Even if it doesn't work, it's fine—at least you're willing to let me become your private race, and that alone makes me very happy."
Zhao Chi laughed in spite of himself: "Did you get that backwards? That's something I should be saying. You being willing to become my private race should be what makes me happy."
Su Qin laughed softly: "Hehe, then let's both be happy together."
"Then let's go be happy together right now."
"Huh? Eh? Ah!!"
A moment later.
Su Qin likewise used every trick she had.
Su Qin had previously been tutored—or rather, taught—by Gu Qing.
She had learned everything Gu Qing could do, studying with exceptional seriousness, even somewhat rigidly.
Trembling all over, unable to even stand, yet still thinking about the next step in the routine.
Zhao Chi ordered her to abandon that rigid approach.
Su Qin obediently complied.
Sure enough, she now possessed an ultra-comprehensive skill set second only to Gu Qing's, each technique performed quite well.
Gu Qing was the most well-rounded—everything at S-rank.
Su Qin had learned everything up to A-rank, making her an all-around type as well.
But in swallowing alone, Qi Yue had reached S+ rank, representing the pinnacle of specialized mastery.
So… Su Qin had specifically consulted Qi Yue, and now she had also reached S-rank in that area, and the experience was quite something.
Even her throat was like Qi Yue's, able to perfectly accommodate Zhao Chi.
It had clearly become her strongest ability.
Zhao Chi had asked her in surprise at the time, and Su Qin said: "My stats are too poor—nowhere near as strong as Sister Gu Qing and the others—so I was afraid you'd be disappointed… If I mastered this technique, even if I couldn't stand and collapsed, I could still use… my mouth."
Zhao Chi was instantly done for.
Besides that.
Su Qin had also consulted Zhuang Ya.
After all, she was the most special one.
But unfortunately, some things simply can't be forced.
Su Qin's combat ability in the rear was completely unable to improve.
So while Zhuang Ya's rear technique was S+ rank, Su Qin could still only reach A-rank—but that was fine too.
As for Tang Ruan's kind of endurance ability, Su Qin hadn't even asked about it—she knew she couldn't do it.
If Zhao Chi treated her the way he treated Tang Ruan, she'd die.
She simply couldn't learn it.
So…
Whether in emotion or in body, Zhao Chi felt genuine feeling from Su Qin's side as well.
