Chapter 840

Endless softness.

The fervor in Gu Qing's eyes was unmistakable, so Zhao Chi simply stopped caring and let her have her way.

In a daze, Zhao Chi thought he had stepped into the Carefree Spring once more.

Very warm.

But in fact, it wasn't.

So much of it… if it could be converted into silk thread, there'd probably be a whole bowl's worth—enough to make quite a few outfits.

With Zhao Chi's intellect reduced and his perception no longer as sharp, his dullness had actually increased.

Gu Qing lay limp on top of Zhao Chi, not moving a muscle.

Zhao Chi gently stroked her back—soft and smooth.

【Gu Qing's "Favorability" has increased. Current level: "Love-Struck"】

(Love-Struck: Favorability Tier 4. When using skills on her, effects increase by 80%.)

Was it really necessary…

But this isn't bad either—Zhao Chi can now gain another 80% bonus effect when using skills on Gu Qing in the future.

Combined with his Female Mentor talent, the Jiacheng Society bonus will increase by an extra 200%!

"My lord…"

Gu Qing called him softly.

Zhao Chi sighed: "Looking like this, can I really make you this crazy?"

Gu Qing laughed: "Crazy? Am I? You're mine anyway. I eat whenever I want, isn't that right?"

"Yes, go ahead and eat."

"Alright, I've had my fill, but I don't feel comfortable letting you go find Xiao Ning looking like this."

"It's fine, isn't it? Let me see what I look like right now first."

"Mm, if my lord goes out, those two will probably cling to you too."

"It's fine. We have plenty of time anyway."

"True. While we're at it, my lord, why don't you help us rack up a lot more energy points? It's also preparation for battle."

Zhao Chi laughed: "You actually make a good point."

Gu Qing said with a seductive smile: "Of course it's reasonable. Half of everything you gain right now has to be handed over anyway, so we might as well do nothing these two days and just stay with us. Each of us can gain dozens of energy points—very effective for battle."

"Fine, but at least get off me first."

"Oh, hehe."

A quick wipe-down.

Pushed the door open and stepped out.

The colors outside had returned to normal.

Blue sky, white clouds, green grass.

And two little beauties.

"What are you two doing here?"

Zhao Chi looked at Tang Ruan and Qi Yue.

The door suddenly opened, clearly startling the two of them.

But immediately after, stars appeared in both their eyes.

So Tang Ruan's eyes were actually this big?

Qi Yue's little mouth could open that wide too?

Both of their expressions were the same as Gu Qing's just now—staring at Zhao Chi in stunned disbelief.

Gu Qing pulled Zhao Chi back inside: "You two come in too, my lord. They'll definitely each gain over ten energy points—now is the perfect time to get double the results with half the effort."

Zhao Chi thought for a moment, then ate a stamina pill.

Then… come on.

Though Zhao Chi's body was tired, his gains came quickly.

Energy points increased bit by bit, accompanied by lilting sounds.

【Tang Ruan's "Favorability" has increased. Current level: "Love-Struck"】

【Qi Yue's "Favorability" has increased. Current level: "Love-Struck"】

Zhao Chi felt somewhat drained.

If there's a Ciyouji Society next time, he could try transferring constitution into 10 points.

When that happens, he'd definitely be able to take on three at once.

Matters concluded.

Zhao Chi finally had a chance to see his own face.

But for some reason, Zhao Chi didn't feel there was much change.

Perhaps the contours were more defined, and the features had subtle adjustments.

But Zhao Chi felt he was still himself—he hadn't turned into a new face.

Gu Qing and the others also felt Zhao Chi hadn't changed much, only that he looked explosively handsome.

Regardless, the stats were useful.

Moreover, all three of them unanimously agreed that Zhao Chi couldn't be allowed to go find Xiao Ning looking like this.

Gu Qing opened her mouth and spat out some white silk threads.

"My lord, although it was my idea to make you look like this, I still need to put a little makeup on you."

"Makeup?"

"That's right, to make you less dazzling."

Tang Ruan nodded vigorously: "Right, I'll go get the cosmetics."

Qi Yue also said: "Then I'll go get a towel and a basin of water."

Soon, after the three women consulted, Gu Qing used spider silk to slightly alter Zhao Chi's appearance, and used cosmetics to conceal some of it.

Zhao Chi sat obediently in the chair, letting them do as they pleased.

Several hands dabbed and patted, and Zhao Chi felt as if he were getting a massage.

After a while, the makeup was done.

Gu Qing crossed her arms over her chest, frowning: "Why do I feel my lord is still dazzling?"

Tang Ruan squinted: "Sigh, yes, should we darken him a bit more?"

Qi Yue said: "I think it's about right, isn't the goal to have my lord seduce that bad woman?"

Zhao Chi laughed helplessly: "Who said I'm going to seduce her? I'm making her let down her guard."

Tang Ruan sighed: "With my lord looking like this, any woman would let down her guard, wouldn't she?"

Gu Qing made up her mind: "Fine, let's leave it like this. After all, our main goal is still to succeed. If my lord really gets forced by that woman… well, my lord isn't losing out either."

"How am I not losing out?" Zhao Chi said, exasperated: "Xiao Ning's appearance is looking more and more like those alien races."

Gu Qing laughed: "I was only joking. I don't want those messy women to touch you either. But this really is fine now, my lord. Rest a bit more and then go."

"Fine." Zhao Chi lay on the bed, emptying his mind.

But there were still some auditory hallucinations in his ears.

It seemed their gentle, lilting voices lingered by his ear all the while.

Gu Qing said to Tang Ruan and Qi Yue: "You two can go clean up. I'll discuss the plan for a while longer with my lord."

"Mm, alright."

Tang Ruan and Qi Yue cleaned up the scene and went out.

Gu Qing nestled gently against Zhao Chi: "My lord, let's rehearse the scene in a bit."

"Alright."

"Then I'm the troublesome Xiao Ning now. I'm going to make things hard for you… oops, so handsome~"

"Gu Qing, be serious."

"Mm, hehe."

1 PM.

Zhao Chi took the spirit-energy stone and walked through the gates of the Xiao family.

Naturally, he was blocked by the alien-race soldiers.
