Li Ruanyu said: "I'm still busy this afternoon — the fighting on the front line isn't going well, and there's a meeting too. Since I have time now, come keep me company and lie down for a while?"

"Sure."

The two entered the room at Phoenix Chant Tower.

The moment she stepped inside, Li Ruanyu saw the room had been tidied up neatly.

The bed was spotless too.

She raised a brow and looked at Zhao Chi: "Did you take the bedsheets again?"

"Mm."

"This hobby of yours… I really don't get it. All our bloodstained bedsheets are at your place?"

"Yes."

"What a weird collection… never mind that. I'm going to lie down and rest for a bit, come join me? But don't get any ideas, or I won't have the energy for this afternoon's meeting — it'd really affect me."

Zhao Chi laughed: "Relax, I won't."

Li Ruanyu laughed: "Can't be so sure about that. Come keep me company lying down."

The two relaxed and lay down.

But Li Ruanyu took the initiative to climb on top.

Softly pressing down on Zhao Chi.

"You said earlier you had some things you wanted to ask me. Now's a good time — what is it, go ahead."

Zhao Chi laughed: "You won't let me touch you, yet here you are tempting me — aren't you afraid I won't be able to hold back?"

Li Ruanyu laughed: "But I want to snuggle up against you~ You'll be fine, just bear with it a little — it'll feel even better when you let it all out tonight! Now tell me, what do you want me to help you with?"

Zhao Chi said: "The first thing is the identity issue for Qi Yue and Zhuang Ya. Neither of them has an identity yet, and it's really inconvenient for them to go out."

"Small matter. I can handle Qi Yue's today, but Zhuang Ya isn't here right now, so I can't do anything about it. The day she resurrects, just tell me — I can have it done that very day."

"That fast?"

"And who do you think I am… Who do you reckon is the First Captain of our White Tiger Regiment? Me, or Shangguan Ting?"

"Obviously you."

Zhao Chi blurted it out without a shred of pressure.

Li Ruanyu laughed till her eyes narrowed into slits: "You said it that decisively? Wait till Shangguan Ting's here too, I'll ask you once more."

Zhao Chi waved his hand: "Don't do that, sis — don't dig a pit for me."

Li Ruanyu covered her mouth and laughed: "Just kidding. Anything else you want me to do?"

"This."

Zhao Chi took out the Race Attribute Jade.

"Race Attribute Jade is pretty rare, right? Is there any item or method that can copy it? Like the Kunlun Mirror shard that can copy buildings — is there anything that can copy items?"

"Hmm…"

Li Ruanyu thought for a moment, then shook her head: "No, I've never heard of anything like that."

"Alright then…"

If even Li Ruanyu says so, then there really isn't one.

It can be used now.

Zhao Chi activated it directly.

A flash of light.

"Aiya, don't activate it right in front of my eyes."

Li Ruanyu shut her eyes tight, pressed her forehead into Zhao Chi's shoulder, and hugged him closely.

【Please select target race】

【1. Human Race】

【2. Taoyuan Human Race】

【3. Taoyuan Silk Race】

【4. Taoyuan Jade Race】

【5. Taoyuan Moon Race】

【6. Taoyuan Warmth Race】

【7. Elven Race】

Why so many?

The ones in the middle are no problem — they're all Taoyuan races, Zhao Chi could understand.

But what's the deal with the first Human Race and the last Elven Race?

He clicked to check the note beside it.

So the first Human Race referred to Zhao Chi himself…

Zhao Chi was Human Race, so he could strengthen himself too.

But Zhao Chi was neither a Bloodline Lord nor a Bloodline Inheritor.

When he used it on himself, it would only affect himself, not all of humanity.

If he chose the first option, it would be no different from an ordinary Attribute Jade.

Zhao Chi definitely wanted to max out his own attributes completely.

He definitely couldn't pick that.

That would be too much of a waste.

Better to improve the entire race.

The last race was the elves from Su Qin's territory.

Originally Su Qin had been an independent lord, but now she had completely become Zhao Chi's vassal lord, her status and position the same as Gu Qing and the others.

So Su Qin's elves were now Zhao Chi's elves as well.

They counted as Zhao Chi's sub-race, basically the same concept as the Taoyuan Silk Race, Taoyuan Moon Race, and so on.

So they could also be enhanced.

This one definitely wasn't chosen either — give up!

Then only the middle few were left.

What's the difference between choosing the Taoyuan Human Race and choosing a branch race?

The Taoyuan Human Race is the main race; choosing it would increase the attributes of all branch races along with it — no problem there.

But the question was, were there any perks to choosing a branch race afterward?

He checked the notes carefully.

No perks…

It seemed those branch race options weren't prepared for Zhao Chi.

They were prepared for lords who only had branch races.

They didn't want to make a wedding dress for someone else; they only wanted to enhance the branch races in their own hands, so the other options were useful.

But for Zhao Chi, there was really no choice.

He could only choose the second option.

Selection: 【Taoyuan Human Race】

The system prompted again:

【Please select the attribute to enhance】

【1. Constitution】

【2. Strength】

【3. Agility】

【4. Intelligence】

Every one of them was good.

All of them were useful.

If he could only choose one, he'd still go with Constitution…

It would make all the Taoyuan races tougher.

The base of those four branch attributes — vitality, stamina, energy, and defense — would also be higher.

After all, of the four major bodily states, three were under Constitution; enhancing it was absolutely not a loss.
