Chapter 802
Zhao Chi and Gu Qing exchanged a glance.
They naturally had no idea what had gone wrong.
Xilier frowned, seemingly trying to suppress the light, but not only could she not contain the golden glow, it grew brighter and brighter.
"Ouch, it's so hot, so hot, hurry up and help me get it out!"
Xilier suddenly leapt up, both hands pressing tightly against her lower abdomen: "Quickly, help me, quick."
Gu Qing tapped with a fingertip, and a healing beam projected onto her, but Xilier was still pressing hard on her abdomen.
Zhao Chi asked anxiously: "What on earth is going on? What happened? Did it fail again? How can I help you?"
"Help me get it out, I can't expel it, and it's still very hot."
"Stop jumping, lie down!"
Xilier gritted her teeth and immediately lay down: "Help me, quick."
Zhao Chi glanced at Gu Qing, then went to help.
But his hands were too big, so he could only use his fingers.
But he couldn't feel any racial bloodline at all, only a patch of soft warmth.
Xilier's sweat increased.
Gu Qing walked over: "Bear with it, I'll help press too, it might hurt a little."
Saying so, healing blood seeped from both her hands to help, while she pressed down hard on Xilier's lower abdomen.
The golden glow on Xilier's abdomen immediately shifted.
"I felt it."
Zhao Chi quickly touched a very hot, smooth sphere.
But the temperature wasn't outrageously high, roughly around 60-70 degrees.
But after all it was inside a body, so Xilier would genuinely feel it burning.
Xilier gritted her teeth: "How is it? Help me get it out, quick."
Zhao Chi hurriedly said: "This bloodline sphere is too slippery, I can't get it out. Gu Qing, press down once more!"
Gu Qing said nothing more and pressed down hard with both hands again.
As Xilier let out a cry, Zhao Chi pinched with his fingers and yanked it out with a sharp pull.
With a crisp snap, a golden ball the size of a ping-pong ball appeared in Zhao Chi's hand.
Is this the sprout of a racial bloodline?
"Phew~ thank you…" Xilier collapsed, lying down.
She actually knows how to say thanks.
Though Zhao Chi was surprised, his attention remained on the small bloodline sphere.
【You have obtained an item】
【Primordial Angel Bloodline Sprout ×1】
What?
How is this an angel's bloodline sprout?
Is she an angel?
Isn't she an elf?
Zhao Chi stared at Xilier in astonishment.
Xilier lay on the bed, motionless.
Her smooth body was covered in sweat.
Half of it was from what Zhao Chi had just done, half from the bloodline sprout.
Gu Qing saw the look on Zhao Chi's face and knew something was off.
"My lord, what is it?"
Zhao Chi handed the angel bloodline sprout to Gu Qing: "You'll know once you take a look."
Gu Qing took it.
She first wiped the blood off the bloodline sprout, then examined it.
At one look, she too was startled.
She turned her head to stare at Xilier.
Xilier lay there weakly, her legs pressed together. She too sensed something off in their gazes, and asked between breaths: "What on earth is going on? Why is that bloodline golden? I remember it should be pale green."
Gu Qing looked at Zhao Chi. Zhao Chi thought for a moment, then nodded slightly.
Gu Qing handed the angel bloodline over.
Xilier took one look and cried out to Zhao Chi in shock: "Ah? You're actually an angel?"
Zhao Chi pointed at his own nose in stunned disbelief: "What? Is this because of me? Am I actually an angel?"
Gu Qing also stared at Zhao Chi in shock: "No way, my lord, so you're an angel?"
All three of them were completely dumbfounded.
But Zhao Chi was the first to calm down: "Wait, wait, that's not right, I'm definitely not an angel. Xilier, you're the angel, right?"
Xilier shook her head vigorously: "I'm a noble elf, I can be 100% sure of that, and my info panel also says elf. There's no way I'm an angel."
That was true enough.
Zhao Chi could also see her information through the captive interface.
It clearly stated her race as High Elf.
Could it be that I'm really an angel?
That's not right.
Zhao Chi could also see his own information panel.
The panel clearly stated he was of the Human race.
What was going on?
Could it be a mutation?
Zhao Chi told the two of them this information. Gu Qing and Hillier looked at each other in bewilderment.
Hillier shook her head. "I've never heard of a bloodline mutating its entire race. Even if it mutated, it would only change a tiny bit of genes — how could it change the whole race?"
That was true enough…
A horse and a donkey can only produce a mule; even with mutation, they couldn't produce a tiger.
When elves and humans interbreed, even if the resulting bloodline isn't elven, it would definitely be human — how could an angel bloodline appear?
Could it be related to his own talent?
Had the elven bloodline information been transferred into angel information?
That didn't make sense either — there was no information source.
Zhao Chi couldn't figure it out.
Gu Qing suddenly frowned and said, "Hillier, after those bandits captured you before, are you sure they didn't do anything to you? Could one of them have been an angel, and then he…"
"Don't talk nonsense!" Hillier cut in immediately. "You know perfectly well what my body's like — didn't you just examine it? Although we elves have no taboos about your humans' way of reproducing, I'm certain no one else has touched me."
Zhao Chi racked his brains but still couldn't understand: "Then it's truly strange."
Hillier said, "In any case, it's yours — I just used your things to guide and activate it. Don't try to shirk responsibility!"
The way she put it…
"What responsibility am I shirking? It's not like having a child — it's just a racial bloodline." Zhao Chi sighed.
Gu Qing said, "Whatever the reason, this angel bloodline shouldn't be worse than the elven one, right?"
Zhao Chi nodded. "Not just not worse — it's vastly better. And it's a primordial angel bloodline!"
Hillier was a little displeased to hear this.
But she also knew the angel bloodline was indeed better.
Although she was an elf, there was nothing she could argue with.
Hillier sat up and handed the angel bloodline back to Zhao Chi.
"Although I don't know the reason, you also said this angel bloodline is better, so you'll keep your promise, right?"
Zhao Chi nodded. "Of course. You can leave whenever you want, or rest for a while if you'd like."
Hillier said weakly, "I'll leave in a bit. It's just past midnight now, which makes it more convenient."
Zhao Chi said, "What do you need? Give me a list — if I can provide it, I'll do my best to give it to you."
