Chapter 804: Village Defense Battle (19)

Xilir's delicate brows knit tightly, her lower lip bitten hard.

She looked very uncomfortable.

Gu Qing cast the healing technique and Cleansing Body Technique again, but she showed no relief at all.

Zhao Chi asked, "Gu Qing already healed you completely, so why do you still look so exhausted? Are you sure you don't need to rest a bit more?"

Xilir shook her head: "Condensing racial bloodlines is extremely draining on the heart and mind. It's not something a healing technique can replenish. It needs to be slowly nursed back. I won't rest. In this state, resting won't bring any obvious improvement either. Once the supplies are ready, I'll leave."

Zhao Chi said, "It's very chaotic outside right now. Where did you teleport from? In a bit I can try to send you somewhere closer."

Xilir gave a light laugh: "You actually care about people? If possible, just try to send us closer to the south."

"The south is the wall."

"Right, exactly the wall. I don't have a territory anymore, so I'll just go through the public passage."

"Understood."

"Let's add each other as friends. Although I've lost my territory now, once I get back, I should be able to immediately reopen my territory."

Zhao Chi thought briefly.

Right now, none of his information had been exposed in front of Xilir.

He hadn't even directly called out Gu Qing's name.

In other words, the moment she left Zhao Chi's territory, Xilir wouldn't be able to find him.

Once they became friends, even if Xilir didn't know the coordinates of Zhao Chi's territory, she could find him in the great world through his name.

Although Xilir and Zhao Chi already had the most intimate act between them.

But that was only from a human moral standpoint.

For elves, they wouldn't place too much importance on it.

Otherwise Xilir wouldn't have used this method to condense her bloodline.

Even more extreme are the succubi.

They practically treat this kind of act as an everyday occurrence, with absolutely no moral burden.

Therefore, Zhao Chi still had to guard against Xilir returning with people to take revenge.

Although this possibility was small, he still had to guard against it.

After all, her arrogant and domineering attitude had left a deep impression.

Zhao Chi shook his head: "Forget it, we'll talk about it if fate allows."

Xilir stared at Zhao Chi in astonishment.

She seemed to have never expected him to refuse.

She nodded silently: "Understood… but could you at least tell me which county you're in?"

"…Binghe County."

"Good, I've remembered it."

Zhao Chi suddenly noticed that Xilir's manner of speaking had really become much more normal.

She no longer had that overbearing attitude from before.

Could it be because he had just helped her extract the bloodline?

Or was it because she was too weak, so she didn't have the strength to maintain that lofty posture?

Gu Qing reminded him softly: "my lord, take a look at her submission level."

Submission level?

Zhao Chi opened Xilir's information interface.

【Name】 Xilir Meloja

【Submission】 7 — Utterly Submissive

What's going on?

Zhao Chi looked at Xilir, and Xilir was also looking at him.

Xilir only looked weary, with none of her former arrogance at all.

Or rather… she had arrogance, but she didn't show it in front of Zhao Chi.

Zhao Chi was very puzzled.

Earlier, when Gu Qing had stabbed her hard, she only raised her submission by 1 point.

But after Zhao Chi's two intimate interactions with her, her submission had actually gone from 2 to 4, and then from 4 to 7?

This was all raised within a single day.

Perhaps Xilir was the type who responded to softness but not to force.

But he himself seemed to have been quite forceful with her too, not particularly soft.

Gu Qing saw his puzzlement and smiled: "It seems the saintess of this elven tribe has already been completely won over by you."

Her voice was not quiet.

Xilir heard it clearly, but she didn't retort.

She merely glanced at Gu Qing quietly, then fixed her gaze on Zhao Chi again.

Until the supplies were fully prepared.

Xilir sighed: "You prepared quite fast. I didn't expect commoners could still be this efficient."

Gu Qing said: "Why are you starting up again right before leaving? Can't you leave a good impression on our my lord?"

Xilir was stunned, then looked at Zhao Chi.

Zhao Chi waved his hand: "It's fine. As long as it's not malicious insults or full of hostility, I won't mind."

Xilir breathed a sigh of relief: "After some time, I might come again. Our side is rich in Experience Fruits. Do you want some?"

Gu Qing revealed a faint smile.

Zhao Chi waved his hand: "I don't want the Experience Fruit. Do you have any other specialties on your side? Something more expensive is fine too."

Hillier said, puzzled: "You don't want the Experience Fruit? What we're selling isn't expensive. If you don't like it, there's also the 'Star Tear Fruit,' which can temporarily boost perception. Or an Elven Bow, lighter and stronger than your bows and arrows. There are quite a few other items, but those belong to other families."

Zhao Chi asked: "How long does it take you to get here from Shengshucheng?"

"About a month, I suppose."

"That long? Didn't you come through the Territory Connection?"

Hillier scoffed: "Heh, really now… don't you know the distance between cities is very far? Even through the Territory Connection, you can't arrive in an instant. And going from Shengshucheng to here means crossing several cities, so of course it takes a month."

Zhao Chi nodded: "Then… I can give you a bit more food."

Hillier was caught off guard and froze for a second: "Really? You're willing to give me more food?"

"Name whatever amount you want, just say it."

"Hmm… let me think… give me ten days' worth of food, that's enough. Too much and we can't carry it, and it'll slow us down."
