Chapter 289

Zhao Chi's control over her body reached 77%.

At this level, he could already control it very smoothly.

The default duration of the body piloting technique is 10 minutes.

With the two of them adding 40 points of spiritual pressure, it could last 4 more minutes.

But even 14 minutes was still too short.

Fortunately, Zhao Chi had figured out a method.

Very simple.

Before the skill ended, he just cast it again inside Gu Qing's body.

It could reset the piloting duration.

This way, he could avoid the awkward scene of having to come out naked every 14 minutes.

Before lunch, Zhao Chi's control over her finally broke through 80%.

Now controlling Gu Qing was as convenient and natural as controlling his own body.

Zhao Chi was still practicing when Gu Qing suddenly interrupted.

【My lord, did you feel it?】

【Feel what?】

【Don't you feel like you need to relieve yourself?】

【…A little, I thought it was me—】

【You're inside my body, you don't have a body, how could it possibly be your feeling?】

【Well then…】

【I'm going to spin some silk, I haven't spun any all morning, there must be quite a lot, let's practice again in a bit】

【Wait until I come out before you spin】

【The time isn't up yet, can't you come out?】

【Can't I just wait a bit?】

【I can't hold it any longer】

【…Fine, go ahead】

Gu Qing walked into the lord's dwelling and set down the wooden basin.

Then she squatted over it.

Spinning silk was already second nature for Gu Qing.

But for Zhao Chi, it still felt very novel.

He had originally thought he would be able to see the details of the silk-spinning.

But his view was blocked by two soft, perfectly round mounds, and he couldn't even see Gu Qing's toes.

He could only hear the sound of silk threads sticking to the basin.

After several dozen seconds, Gu Qing squatted once more, then stood up.

Only then did Zhao Chi see a full half-basin of yellow spider silk.

Quite a quantity.

This time the color of the large bundle of silk was very deep.

Although it had no smell, he would need to buy some dye.

It could just be dyed into black silk or flesh-colored silk.

At lunch, Zhao Chi didn't come out either.

He controlled Gu Qing to eat heartily.

Completely treating Gu Qing's body as his own.

Gu Qing chatted cheerfully with Zhao Chi, not minding in the slightest.

【Hehe, of course I don't mind! With you helping me control my body, I can just relax comfortably, and being inside one body with you makes me feel great too~】

【Fine then, stay a while longer with me, I need to practice this afternoon too】

【Okay~ but you have to chat with me】

【No problem】

6 PM.

Control over Gu Qing's body broke through 85%.

It seemed the further along, the harder it was to improve control.

Reaching 100% probably couldn't be done in just a day or two.

Zhao Chi didn't mind; with this 85% control, there was absolutely no problem.

But there was still one control difficulty he had never quite mastered.

That was, when running at high speed, turning or changing direction, Yuanyuan and Manman would always be flung outward.

The inertia was a bit too great.

It seriously affected the body's balance.

【Gu Qing, this… how do we solve it?】

【Solve it? I've always been like this】

【Always hard to control your balance?】

【I feel fine, my lord, you might just not be used to it】

【…Alright】

【Hehe, actually just fixing it in place will do. I'll set it up in a bit, then you can try again.】

【Alright, but it's about time. Let's take a bath and go to sleep. Once we're back to 100%, we'll set out tonight.】

【Huh? Tonight?】

Gu Qing was overjoyed.

【Right, we don't have much time, we leave tonight. Tonight is mainly to check out the black market. If it doesn't work out, I'll need to adjust on the fly.】

【Great! Then let's hurry up and take that bath.】

【Wait for me to come out!】

【Aiya~ it's fine, I'll soak first. When the time comes, just appear directly in the hot spring — saves me the trouble of taking my clothes off.】

【…Fair point.】
