Chapter 2170
Su Qin nodded.
She felt her face about to catch fire, and wondered whether this counted as an abnormal situation?
Immediately after, Zhao Chi separated out a wisp of bloodline energy.
Very weak.
After all, he had never tried this before, so he definitely had to be extra careful.
Su Qin frowned; there was absolutely no reaction at all.
Zhao Chi was also carefully sensing the energy ahead.
He could feel the energy fluctuations of the Taoyuan bloodline sprout, and he could also feel the path of that wisp of energy he had sent over.
That wisp of energy advanced quickly on Su Qin's side, and very soon merged together with the bloodline sprout.
Then, it vanished.
Without a trace, impossible to feel any longer.
It must have been absorbed by the bloodline sprout, but the energy was too little to perceive so clearly.
Apart from that.
Zhao Chi also could not feel Su Qin's own human-race bloodline energy.
The few women looked left and right.
One moment looking at the red-faced Su Qin, one moment looking at the frowning Zhao Chi, one moment again looking at the two of their abdomens.
Li Ruanyu asked: "Su Qin, Zhao Chi, how is it going? Why aren't either of you two saying anything?"
Su Qin shook her head: "I can't feel anything at all."
Zhao Chi also nodded: "Same here on my side. I can only feel the Taoyuan bloodline, but the human-race bloodline seems as if it doesn't exist."
Li Ruanyu said: "After all, the sprout was only just put in two days ago, it hasn't truly taken root and sprouted at all. The energy you just sent was very little, and isn't enough to cause much change. Let's wait a few more minutes. If there's still no change, you can continue to send some more energy over. This time you can send a bit more."
Zhao Chi nodded: "Alright."
A few minutes later, Zhao Chi once again input a strand of energy, but although this time the energy was still not much, it was still considerably more than that wisp just now.
The few people were all completely focused.
The bloodline sprout once again absorbed energy, but still there was no change.
Su Qin said: "Zhao Chi, there's still no change. Send a bit more energy over this time, I can take it. Even if something happens, everyone's right here, there won't be any danger."
Zhao Chi shook his head: "Don't rush. We've never had this kind of experience before, so caution has to come first. And it's only been a few minutes just now, we have plenty of time. I know you're very shy right now, but in the future there'll be no shortage of situations like this, everyone will be like this."
"I, I know…"
Su Qin stopped urging.
Gu Qing and the others all looked at Zhao Chi with some surprise.
They could all roughly guess what Zhao Chi was thinking.
Gu Qing gave a light laugh, quietly started calculating in her heart, and very soon arranged the combinations and order for later.
As long as Zhao Chi had an idea, she could immediately tell Zhao Chi the best combinations of the few people.
Li Ruanyu gently bit her lip.
This kind of many people together… she actually couldn't quite accept it, but… she'd try to accept it.
Zhuang Ya was the most nervous.
She was actually even shyer than Su Qin, mainly because her self-respect was too strong.
Collapsing at the slightest touch every time made her seem very impatient.
But she had no way to change it.
Tang Ruan, on the other hand, didn't care; she listened to Zhao Chi about everything.
Qi Yue was the same; she would be shy while listening to Zhao Chi.
The third wave of energy arrived.
This time even more was transmitted.
The energy was clearly considerably more than the previous two times.
The moment it reached Su Qin's side, the bloodline sprout reacted, as if welcoming that energy.
That energy could also sense the sprout, and rushed straight over, directly pouncing on it.
This time the energy was much greater, and the bloodline sprout couldn't absorb it in an instant, but instead let the energy spin continuously around its surroundings.
It was very much like that kind of energy whirlwind inside Gu Qing and the others' bodies.
Only much smaller.
"It's heating up, I can feel the temperature rising!"
Su Qin suddenly said nervously.
Zhuang Ya immediately extended her right hand and pressed it against Su Qin's belly; a swirl of heat energy rushed out, and Su Qin immediately felt much better.
"Any other sensations?" Zhao Chi hurriedly asked.
Su Qin lightly frowned.
"It seems… it seems my belly is spinning in circles."
Li Ruanyu asked: "Any other sensations? Apart from your abdomen, do your limbs feel anything? For instance, are your fingertips numb? Can your eyes still see clearly? Any difficulty breathing?"
Su Qin kept shaking her head: "Mm… yes, I feel as if my whole body is very swollen, as if there's some kind of air current rampaging inside my body. My arms, my neck, everywhere feels a bit stiff. My head is very dizzy, and my eyes really are a bit blurry. Especially my abdomen, it feels like it's constantly twisting right now."
Li Ruanyu comforted: "These are all normal reactions. Zhao Chi only helped you speed it up; otherwise you would have had these reactions later too. Fortunately your condition counts as a mild one."
Zhuang Ya asked: "How's the temperature now? Has it stopped? Is it still rising?"
"The temperature's normal now, thank you Sister Zhuang Ya. It's just that my head is very dizzy, and my abdomen is twisting terribly, like it's spinning in circles very fast."
Zhao Chi said: "It's not your abdomen that's spinning in circles, but the sprout's energy is rotating… I can already feel another, separate energy appearing."
"Is it the energy of a human bloodline?" Gu Qing asked.
"It should be. After all, I've never sensed it before either," Zhao Chi replied.
"Can you absorb and use it?" Gu Qing asked.
"Absorb it?"
Gu Qing nodded: "Yes, do you want to give it a try? If it's just a simple absorption of energy, it shouldn't cause you any harm, right? It can also help Su Qin reduce the human bloodline energy inside her. Sister Ruanyu, is there such a method?"
Li Ruanyu chimed in: "There is, but usually the absorption is done through formations or spiritual techniques. I've never heard of anyone who can directly absorb the bloodline energy from another person's body. In theory, it's indeed not a problem, but in actual practice, you still need to be cautious. You can try it carefully."
Zhao Chi nodded: "Alright, I'll give it a try."
Zhao Chi immediately concentrated his focus.
Pressing against Su Qin's softness, he moved a little further forward.
The closer the distance, the easier it was to sense.
Su Qin let out a soft cry, then quickly pressed her lips tightly shut.
Zhao Chi carefully guided.
But… it seemed not to work.
When guiding bloodline energy from Gu Qing and the others, he only needed to divert a wisp of spiritual power. The energy of those Taoyuan bloodlines was very obedient and compliant, easily flowing back into Zhao Chi's body.
But Su Qin's human bloodline energy was completely different.
Not only did it refuse to follow the guidance of spiritual power, it even tore the spiritual power apart and absorbed it.
Just like the situation when it spun together with the Taoyuan bloodline energy.
Could it be… that absorbing this human bloodline energy also requires waiting until Su Qin collapses before it can be broken apart and absorbed?
Zhao Chi explained the situation.
Gu Qing nodded: "It's indeed possible. Su Qin, did you hear that?"
Su Qin had, of course, heard it.
Her cheeks had long since been burning red, and now they were an even deeper flush.
Li Ruanyu comforted her: "It's alright, Su Qin. No one is laughing at you. We're all women here, we know this is all very normal, everyone is the same. Just relax a little. Right now it's also to help you convert faster and more safely."
Su Qin nodded: "I understand, Sister Ruanyu. I'm just not used to it yet. I'll try to get more used to it in the future."
Saying so, she glanced at Tang Ruan.
Tang Ruan said: "Why are you looking at me, Su Qin? We usually like to play around, that's because we're close. Now is your critical moment, I won't laugh at you. We're a family, and you're my sister too. Go for it, Sister Su Qin."
Su Qin smiled a little: "Hearing that form of address from your mouth is really not easy. Zhao Chi, you can go ahead."
Zhao Chi nodded.
He shifted and maneuvered.
In just about a minute, Su Qin had entered the state.
