Chapter 2839

Lu Yi's territory was in an uproar; a large number of prisoners and supplies were temporarily stored in her territory, and Zhao Chi and the others' territories had not yet been cut off.

Quite a few of Zhao Chi's female soldiers were guarding the prisoners here, and they greeted him one after another upon seeing him.

Zhao Chi nodded in response and said to Lu Yi, "Let's go, find somewhere with fewer people, go to your room."

Lu Yi hesitated slightly.

"Go to my room? That… Zhao Chi, I, I'm willing to follow you, and I'm willing to give myself to you, but I really want to get my family's approval first…"

Zhao Chi said, "What are you thinking? I said it's a skill, it's a skill. Let's go!"

"Mm, okay."

Lu Yi said nothing more, took Zhao Chi's hand, and pulled him into a two-story small stone building in the territory.

Zhao Chi said, "This skill is a bit strange, but it can boost your 2 points to all attributes, increase morale and mood by 100%, and also remove most abnormal statuses."

Lu Yi was both surprised and puzzled: "So strong!? It can boost 2 points to all attributes? Where's it strange? Is it strangely strong?"

"No… you can change your skirt first, a personal suggestion?"

Lu Yi grew even more puzzled: "Ah? Why? What do you want to do?"

"Don't overthink it."

"Then why are you telling me to change my skirt?"

Zhao Chi sighed: "Forget it, I'll give you a new outfit in a bit, then I'll activate the skill, pay attention to checking your status."

Lu Yi was completely baffled.

But she still obeyed Zhao Chi and opened her status interface.

Zhao Chi said, "I still have some short-duration skills, let you try them first, but you… you may never have had a similar experience before, and don't know how to deal with it, so… there will be some over-the-top reactions."

Lu Yi laughed in confusion: "Ah? Over-the-top reactions? Will I go crazy? Aiya, what on earth is this skill?"

"Of course not going crazy… although maybe it's a bit like going crazy, but I can't explain it either, just try it directly, remember to watch the attribute status changes."

"Okay."

Zhao Chi chose 1 point of short-duration energy and activated.

A strange ray of light flew out and struck Lu Yi.

Lu Yi froze for 1 second, her expression changing from a puzzled smile to wide-eyed astonishment.

"Zha… Zhao Chi!!"

She screamed in panic, her hands suddenly grabbing the wardrobe door beside her.

The wardrobe door was nearly pulled off by her.

Zhao Chi sensed some moisture.

"Lu Yi?"

Lu Yi said nothing.

She just had a taut pretty face, blushing all over.

Her eyes brimmed with tears, full of reproach and anger.

One hand still gripped the wardrobe door, the other pressed tightly against her lower abdomen.

Head lowered, not a word spoken.

Zhao Chi suddenly felt a bit of regret.

This kind of enhancement skill was indeed a bit premature for her…

But this skill could really boost combat power quite a bit, especially for a town-level lord like her; 2 points added to all attributes was a considerable boost.

It could give Lu Yi the ability to counterattack on the spot when facing enemy melee troops charging in.

Even when facing a 2-meter-tall strong beastman assault, Lu Yi could rely on her super-high attributes to retreat unscathed, or even counterattack.

Besides that, it could also remove abnormal statuses, which was also one of the very useful abilities.

Morale and mood went without saying, both were useful.

The only drawback was probably that it needed getting used to.

Zhao Chi explained again.

Lu Yi shook her head with a sobbing tone: "What on earth is going on with this skill of yours?"

Zhao Chi said, "Don't mind that, did you look at the status page? This is a real enhancement skill."

Lu Yi nodded: "I saw it… but… I'll step away for a bit…"

After saying that, she ran off with small steps.

Leaving behind two high-heel water marks.

Zhao Chi looked at the floor again…

He knew Lu Yi would have some issues, but he didn't expect it to be this severe.

Better not wait here.

Go outside and wait for her.

Save her the embarrassment.

Zhao Chi waited outside the door for over ten minutes, and heard Lu Yi softly call him.

"Zhao Chi? Zhao Chi, have you left?"

"No, I'm outside."

Footsteps approached.

Lu Yi came out wearing a fluffy pajama set and slippers.

Her cheeks were still flushed red.

Then she said softly, "This skill really is a bit strange…"

Seeing her bashful expression, Zhao Chi knew she wasn't angry.

He said, "When you're in battle, you can notify me by voice. I can remotely activate this skill for you—whether it's boosting all your stats or removing abnormal status effects, it's very effective."

Lu Yi nodded.

Zhao Chi said, "But what I just gave you was only short-duration energy, lasting only 20 seconds. After that, there's only long-duration energy, which can last 140 seconds."

Lu Yi raised her head and looked at Zhao Chi.

"140 seconds!? That's awesome!? Uh, no… that's… that's… really long-lasting…"

"…Right, after all, it is long-duration."

"Oh…"

"Mm…"

In the midst of their mutual silence, Zhao Chi suddenly received a forced notification.

From Zhao Chi's Gentle Haven group.

Li Ruanyu 【9!】

Li Ruanyu 【Quick! Tang Ruan, Qi Yue!】

Zhao Chi's whole body jolted instantly!

A tingling sensation shot across his scalp.

Li Ruanyu was sending a distress signal!

This was the danger alert number Zhao Chi had created for the women around him—as long as this number was sent alone, it meant extreme danger and required immediately using the clan summoning ability to call her back.

Almost on instinct, Zhao Chi shot out instantly, heading straight for outside the town.

Lu Yi was startled, staring blankly at the direction Zhao Chi had left, completely unaware of what had happened.

"Tang Ruan! Qi Yue! Quickly summon Li Ruanyu back!!"

Zhao Chi leaped over the wall in a single bound, roaring furiously at the outside.

In mid-air, he saw that outside were all bound prisoners.

On the outer perimeter of the prisoner group, quite a few female soldiers were standing guard.

At the very front was Qi Yue, utterly astonished.

And beside her was Li Ruanyu.

Li Ruanyu, her brows tightly furrowed.

Tang Ruan and Gu Qing also came running from the side.

Phew…

Zhao Chi let out a breath.

The instant he landed, Zhao Chi rushed over.
