Chapter 217: Masochism

After Zhao Chi clicked confirm, Tang Ruan's body flashed with light and she fully became a hero.

Her excitement was beyond words.

She kept jumping around, and together with the two rabbits on her chest, she looked like three bouncing little rabbits.

"Ah, Sister Gu, I'm a hero too!"

"Yes, congratulations."

"My lord, I'm really a hero!"

"Of course it's real."

Tang Ruan was so excited for a while before she finally calmed down.

But once she calmed down, she began studying her skills.

"My lord, how do I use this Provoke Technique? Will it really make people angry after I use it?"

Zhao Chi smiled and said, "Of course it can. You've never used a skill before, have you?"

The moment the question left his mouth, Zhao Chi felt he had asked something pointless.

But Tang Ruan still answered very seriously.

"Mm, I've only had spiritual techniques cast on me by Sister Gu and you, my lord, but I've never used one myself."

"Then you can try using one now, you can aim it at..."

Zhao Chi looked at the Naga beside him.

That didn't seem quite appropriate.

The Naga and the Harpies were all slaves, and their obedience had only just been raised not long ago.

If he made them angry, it might lower their obedience.

"You can aim it at..."

Zhao Chi looked at Gu Qing again.

Gu Qing was fine — her spiritual pressure was 30 points, giving her 30% resistance against this kind of spiritual technique.

However... it was only 30%.

Even if it could weaken the effect of the Provoke Technique, she would probably still get very angry.

Moreover, Gu Qing's stats were very high. If she lost control of herself and fought Tang Ruan, that was absolutely not what Zhao Chi wanted to see.

Besides, the friendship between women was often very delicate.

Zhao Chi didn't know whether the women of Taoyuan and ordinary human women were the same in this regard.

But right now, Gu Qing and Tang Ruan were on very good terms.

Better not take the risk.

So... it seemed only he was left.

His average stats were only 5 points.

Among humans, that was a passable level, but in front of the women of Taoyuan, it was somewhat weak.

Let alone in front of Tang Ruan.

Even if he lost control of himself, it probably wouldn't hurt her.

And with Gu Qing, that super healer, nearby, she could heal at any time...

"You can use it on... me."

Zhao Chi finally pointed at himself.

Tang Ruan naturally disagreed.

"How can that be? This isn't exactly a nice skill, and after using it, you'll get angry, my lord..."

Zhao Chi smiled and said, "It's fine. The skill is only a temporary effect, and I can take the chance to experience this kind of skill, plus accumulate relevant experience to prepare for future battles."

Tang Ruan was still very hesitant, and she looked at Gu Qing as if seeking help.

Gu Qing smiled slightly and said, "Since the Lord wants to try it out, let's satisfy him."

Hearing this, Tang Ruan stopped insisting: "Alright then, my lord, I'm going to start."

"Okay."

Tang Ruan focused her attention.

She felt the spiritual power flowing within her body.

Before learning this spiritual technique, she couldn't have imagined how to use it at all.

But once learned, it was as natural as speaking, breathing, or eating.

Tang Ruan gathered her spiritual power.

A flash of purple light gleamed in her pupils.

The next moment, the purple light suddenly shot out, striking Zhao Chi's body directly.

Zhao Chi felt nothing at all.

He had seen the purple light shooting toward him, and he knew Tang Ruan's Provoke Technique had been cast, but his heart was utterly unmoved.

Zhao Chi scratched his head.

It was Tang Ruan's first time using a spiritual technique, so she might not be very skilled — had it failed?

Should he comfort her?

But this spiritual technique didn't seem to have the concept of failure.

"My lord, are you alright?"

Tang Ruan asked weakly.

Gu Qing also looked at Zhao Chi with curiosity.
