Chapter 2306

From a fragile woman who feared pain at the slightest injury, she instantly transformed into a battle goddess willing to undergo bone-scraping treatment.

"Zhao... Zhao Chi?"

She instinctively called out to Zhao Chi in astonishment.

Of course she could clearly notice the change in herself.

And such a huge change at that—she herself found it incredible.

Her tone was indeed no longer so clingy; it had become crisp and decisive.

Her speaking pace had quickened a little too.

"How do you feel?"

Zhao Chi stared at her. Her expression, which had been pitiful and aggrieved moments ago, had regained some of its former spirit.

But she was still very weak.

Only her gaze had grown considerably sharper.

"My head is so dizzy... my eyes can't see clearly either... and... it really hurts."

She really did speak much more crisply now.

Zhao Chi nodded: "I understand. Even watching you I feel the pain, but you know the situation—there really is no other way. You'll have to endure a little longer, understand?"

"I... understand. Just now I... was really about to break down. Luckily you helped restore my confidence. I didn't expect your Blood Surge Art's morale boost to be this powerful... that's amazing... thank you. You... go ahead."

She could even speak such a long sentence now.

Morale really is useful.

Zhao Chi laughed: "I didn't expect you'd be this polite after getting your morale back. Very good!"

Zhao Chi was sincerely praising her.

He truly felt a little surprised.

Yet to Shangguan Ting it always sounded somewhat like sarcasm.

But strangely, even so, her heart remained perfectly calm; instead she felt a little ashamed and wanted to start reflecting on herself?

Seeing her fall silent, Zhao Chi said: "Then I'll start now. First I need to clean the dirt and blood off your body, then wrap your whole body in silk thread. The process will definitely hurt, but it's necessary."

"... Come on!"

Shangguan Ting's gaze was firm.

Zhao Chi relaxed a little too.

A strong woman... truly has her own kind of strong charm.

"Then I'll begin!"

Zhao Chi no longer hesitated, ready to show his full skill.

"Hey... Zhao Chi..."

Shangguan Ting suddenly called Zhao Chi's name again.

"What is it? Still afraid of the pain?"

Shangguan Ting shook her head: "No... I was thinking... there's something I want to ask you to do. It's just... since it really hurts so much... if possible, could you... do that thing?"

Zhao Chi listened, completely lost.

"Huh? What? Do what?"

Shangguan Ting said: "It's just... didn't you have that move before? The one that can make me instantly... instantly just... you know. If I were like that... it might ease a lot of the pain."

"Like what?"

"You know, like that!"

"We don't have much time now, Shangguan Ting—stop beating around the bush, just say it straight out! What exactly is 'that'?"

"... An orgasm."

Zhao Chi stared at her in astonishment.

Shangguan Ting didn't dare look at Zhao Chi; her eyes turned toward the sky, though she was watching him from the corner of her eye.

Zhao Chi realized she was talking about Blissful Frenzy...

It really was a solution.

If the body could be kept in that state the whole time, it would indeed effectively reduce the sensation of pain.

Moreover, Blissful Frenzy also came with +100% Morale, +100% Mood, and +2 to All Attributes.

Morale would let Shangguan Ting summon her courage to face the pain.

Mood went without saying—it would lift her from her low spirits and make her very happy.

And the +2 to All Attributes would further strengthen her constitution and everything else across the board.

Every effect was helpful.

It was indeed feasible.

Zhao Chi nodded: "Got it."

Shangguan Ting's gaze immediately dropped, fixing on Zhao Chi: "I'm just... afraid of the pain... I don't actually want to do... that..."

Let her say whatever she wants.

Zhao Chi activated Blissful Frenzy.

However, Shangguan Ting couldn't handle too intense a stimulus right now—the energy from Tang Ruan or Gu Qing definitely wouldn't work.

He'd still have to use Qi Yue's or Su Qin's.

Then let's start with 20 points of Qi Yue's.

Let her feel better for the next 400 seconds.

And those 400 seconds would be enough for Zhao Chi to finish wrapping her entire body.

Zhao Chi activated the energy.

The light surged into Shangguan Ting's body.

"Owow…"

Shangguan Ting let out a soft sigh.

Her whole body was also twisting gently.

Didn't she feel pain the moment she moved?

So why is she starting to writhe again now?

But it was understandable.

After all, once this Blissful Frenzy kicked in, it was an explosion — and a continuous one at that.

If Shangguan Ting had never experienced anything like this in all these decades… then this was practically a nuclear blast.

She really would keep struggling.

Moreover, it was visible to the naked eye — a flush of crimson had actually appeared on Shangguan Ting's cheeks.

It really was effective.

Seeing Shangguan Ting begin to feel pleasure, Zhao Chi immediately started to wrap her.

But before wrapping, he had to clean her first.

Shangguan Ting's whole body was covered in blood and shredded flesh.

Most of it was her own, but a fair amount belonged to enemies.

And her wounds still held a lot of wood splinters and dirt.

As well as some small stones and bone fragments.

All of it needed to be cleaned out.

If Shangguan Ting couldn't hold on at all, then he'd just have to wrap her up like this first and deal with the rest later.

But now that she'd grown larger, her vitality had also risen, and she could still endure a bit.

So he'd do it thoroughly in one go.

To spare her from having to go through the pain all over again later.

"I'll clean your body and wounds first — don't be too surprised."

Shangguan Ting nodded with a trembling body: "Mm~ but~ there's no water~ how are you uh~ going to clean me mm~ then~"

Zhao Chi said: "That's why I told you not to be too surprised."

With that, he used his fingernail to tear open the skin on his arm and pulled out the main artery in his wrist.

Shangguan Ting's body trembled as she stared at Zhao Chi in astonishment.

She wasn't stupid.
