Chapter 2456

The rich fragrance remained just as intense.

A faint electric current flashed and vanished.

She immediately put away all her fashion outfits, saving herself from having to wash them again later…

3:30 in the morning.

Zhao Chi finished today's daily tasks.

Thoroughly satisfying!

He had two discoveries.

The first.

Besides Qi Yue, Su Qin and Tang Ruan also expressed the same sentiment.

They all hoped that once their energy was fully replenished, Zhao Chi could forgo using the drug.

Zhao Chi was genuinely a bit puzzled.

Whether by their performance or by actual effect, this drug was excellent.

Moreover, a quality drug had minimal side effects; the three of them barely experienced any.

Yet they all, as if in unspoken agreement, said the same thing.

It seemed that for them, those sensations truly only accounted for part of it.

The psychological aspect was equally important.

After taking this item, once the effects kicked in, they simply couldn't focus on anything else—and for them, that didn't seem perfect?

Zhao Chi couldn't quite understand it.

But he respected it.

Still, all three of them did say they really liked this drug.

So, it was quite contradictory…

Regardless, as long as they liked it, that was what mattered.

He could use it flexibly later on.

The second discovery.

It was discovered on Qi Yue's side.

Qi Yue was rather special.

She carried the blood-craving gene, so Zhao Chi gave her an extra bit every day.

Today was no different.

Anyway, the drug had a 15-minute onset period, and during that time, sitting idle was just sitting idle.

So he might as well top off Qi Yue's blood-craving state first.

As a result, Qi Yue was extremely happy.

Her joy far surpassed any previous occasion.

And Zhao Chi could confirm—this wasn't happiness from having her blood-craving replenished; it was heartfelt, genuine joy from within.

Very wondrous.

Like a puppy getting a meaty bone.

A kitten getting a little dried fish.

Qi Yue too had gotten hers.

And with this, during the waiting period for the drug's effects to kick in, he could redirect her attention.

No more of that irritable state.

No… not that it was gone.

Rather, it had eased.

Or rather… it had been redirected.

After all, the rich fragrance once again filled the surroundings.

Before she knew it, that stretch of time had already passed.

A pretty good method.

Right after, Su Qin also began to try.

The result was the same for Su Qin.

This was actually something Zhao Chi hadn't expected.

Su Qin wasn't like Qi Yue—she wasn't really skilled at it, nor was she passionate about it.

But as long as Zhao Chi was willing, she would give her all, even specially seeking out Qi Yue to learn from her.

One could say that although Su Qin felt nothing, she was willing to work hard for Zhao Chi.

But today…

It was completely different.

Today she wasn't doing it for Zhao Chi, but for herself.

She too was firmly captivated, delighted and happy.

That expression and state absolutely couldn't be faked.

It was real.

And Tang Ruan was the same.

She was the most petite among these women.

And also the youngest in age, so everyone looked after her.

But Zhao Chi was the strictest with her.

There was no helping it—this was determined by Tang Ruan's talent.

Because of this, she would often choke on it, her eyes brimming with tears.

But she was very happy.

Zhao Chi of course couldn't bear it, but this was all at Tang Ruan's request.

But today, Tang Ruan didn't do it at all, only gently feeding her like Qiyue would.

So…

This was a perfect way to burn through that active period, and everyone was happy.

It saved them from having a hard time getting through that stretch.

After leaving Tang Ruan's side, Qiyue had already rested well.

After the two of them finished soaking in the Carefree Spring together, it was time to officially start making the outfit.

However, on the way to the garment factory, Zhao Chi opened the Binghe main force's group chat.

He wanted to see if there was any notice about setting up a temporary trading point.

As it turned out, there was no notice.

Everyone was complaining about Shubei Town.

Zhao Chi felt as if he were right there with them.

【Star Squad - Jiang Wei】 Damn, I'm done. Liu-ge, the situation you mentioned—I ran into it too. They all said we're here to seize their resources.

【Phantom Squad - Wang Chao】 Seize my ass! Later they can forget about us supporting them!

【Blaze Squad - Peng Hong】 I ran into it too. When they heard I was from the White Tiger Regiment, they charged me an extra 3 gold coins in fees.

【Tide Song Squad - Qiu Lan】 Right? Why does the lord of Shubei Town love rolling their eyes so much? I ran into 3 today, and 1 of them was a staff member. Do they all have some eye disease or what?

【Tide Song Squad - Lin Kang】 Hahaha, Xiao Lan, you got off easy—you're a female lord, and they only rolled their eyes at you. I ran into one who was even ruder to me, wanting to duel me. I already accepted, and I still don't know if I should actually fight it out】

【Flying Dragon Squad - Qu Kang】 Fight my ass, private duels won't be approved, and with werewolves outside now, there's even less chance they'd agree to you dueling.

【Tide Song Squad - Lin Kang】 That's what I said too. Seems like the Xuanwu Regiment lords in Shubei Town know this too, so they're putting on a hypocritical act of wanting to duel.

【Clear Bamboo Group - Fu Yi】 But why is that? After I showed my identity today, I really did feel a lot of strange looks.

【Vanguard Group - Yang Xiong】 What else could it be? They're hostile toward us, that's all.

【Clear Bamboo Group - Fu Yi】 They're allies of the World-Breaking Army, and they still have this much hostility?

【Yihe Group - Leader - Ye Kai】 Don't go to the exchange or the quest hall—the staff there are all Xuanwu Regiment staff, they're very hostile to us. You can go to the shops on the street.

【Azure Squad - Ding Ting】 Right, right, right. Today I just wandered around the various shops in town and didn't run into the situation you guys mentioned. I was just wondering about it, turns out the outside shops are fine.

【Torrent Squad - Meng Yi】 Mainly because the street-side shops are ordinary people, not closely tied to the Xuanwu Regiment. And we don't need to show our identity, so naturally there's no problem.

【North Flow Squad - He Kang】 Why would the Xuanwu Regiment be hostile toward us? I really can't figure it out.
