Chapter 941

Zhao Chi said, "You all can fool around later — there's another hot spring over there. Let's go check it out first."

"Another one?" Tang Ruan grew interested and immediately popped out of the spring water.

In an instant, another stream of ice-cold water was brought out by her, splashing everywhere.

Qi Yue shrieked and leaped far away, not daring to come closer.

Tang Ruan said, "Qi Yue, why are you running so far? I won't chill you anymore. Come on, let's go to the other hot spring."

Only then did Qi Yue slowly approach.

After Tang Ruan came out of the ice water, her skin all over became even whiter.

It seemed to have lost all color.

After quite a while, Tang Ruan's skin finally turned back to a healthy pinkish white.

At this moment, the three of them stood beside the sauna spring, and the two women once again felt an unprecedented damp heat.

"In other words, the spring water here is scalding?" Tang Ruan's eyes lit up.

Qi Yue had already retreated several steps.

Zhao Chi nodded: "That's right, the temperature inside is very high, but as for you… I won't say anything. Go on in."

Qi Yue quickly retreated another two steps.

Tang Ruan, as expected, leaped down without hesitation.

Plop!

Water splashed everywhere.

"Wow — it's so hot!"

This time, only Tang Ruan's delighted cry rang out.

Her skin instantly turned pink, blood rushing to the surface.

Only then did Qi Yue approach again.

Zhao Chi laughed: "Qi Yue, this one's hot. Try it again."

"Mm, alright. Tang Ruan, stop fooling around."

Tang Ruan laughed: "Got it."

"My lord, let me hold you."

Zhao Chi went over, and Qi Yue tightly wrapped her arms around his arm, once again dipping a foot in.

Her fair toes were scalded again and curled up.

But this time she didn't leave, and dipped them in again.

This time, half a pink, tender foot went in.

Then the entire foot, and then the entire leg.

Until half her body.

It seemed Qi Yue could adapt to this sauna spring.

"My lord, you come down too." Tang Ruan came to the edge of the spring, reached out and gripped Zhao Chi's calf: "My lord, is my hand hot?"

It really was very hot.

Zhao Chi felt himself grabbed by a soft, hot little hand.

For some reason, Zhao Chi suddenly glanced down between his legs.

If Gu Qing were here, she probably wouldn't just be reaching for his calf.

Qi Yue slowly began to squat down, and Zhao Chi also entered the sauna spring.

It really was scalding.

But at the same time, it felt wonderful.

He wondered whether soaking in these two kinds of spring water regularly could boost some ice resistance and fire resistance.

Not long after, more and more women discovered these two springs.

Most of them gathered around, watching one "heroine" after another go down to take the challenge.

As the shrieks rang out, the laughter of the onlookers beside them rose continuously as well.

Zhao Chi felt very relaxed at this moment.

Next, Zhao Chi gave everyone a holiday, letting them all come here to enjoy a moment.

All the female subordinates naturally needed no telling — they all closed their eyes and lay in the hot spring, humming.

All 16 Naga warriors dove into the hot spring, floating quietly on the surface, as if dead.

Only occasionally letting out hissing sounds.

They were originally aquatic creatures, with excellent swimming ability.

Previously, they had always bathed and rested in the small river.

Now Zhao Chi had set aside a Carefree Spring for them, and they were very willing.

After all, the comfort was extreme, the mood excellent, and there were massive bonuses — who would refuse?

Compared to the Naga warriors, the harpies were very noisy.

They were flying creatures, and had some aversion to water.

But they also knew this Carefree Spring was a good thing, and none were willing to give it up — they all carefully entered the spring.

However, harpies were already very noisy to begin with, and now being soaked all over by this warm, comfortable spring water, they immediately started cackling wildly without stopping for a single moment.

Their feather-covered wings flapped about wildly at the same time, splashing water everywhere.

Fortunately, the Carefree Spring assigned to them was the farthest one, or else they would have driven everyone to death with annoyance.

200 flower fairies also came.

They gathered at one corner of the Carefree Spring and carefully waded into the water.

Zhao Chi had originally assumed they wouldn't dare enter—after all, their wings were far too large and they carried all kinds of pollen dust, not looking like the sort that could touch water.

But even so, they couldn't possibly pass up such fine spring water.

One by one, they folded their great wings back together, then all floated on the water's surface.

They were simply too light, making it hard to sink to the bottom, which also made them a little safer.

These 200 flower demons were all excitedly chattering away, shouting and calling out at random.

But they were too small, their voices too thin—the sounds they made were all like warbling whispers, and were actually a bit quieter than those 14 harpy women.

The female herders of the Muyang group led the feathered cattle over.

Slowly they guided them into the Carefree Spring.

Those feathered cattle had originally been a little resistant, but the moment a single hoof touched the water, they were startled into mooing wildly.

They plunged straight into the spring water and began to swim.

The feathered cattle in front called to those behind, and without needing the Muyang people to lead them, all 60 feathered cattle leapt in and swam about joyfully everywhere.

When these creatures first entered the Carefree Spring, their bodies were all covered in quite a bit of mud and grime.

They made the spring water filthy.

But the Carefree Spring's self-purifying ability was extremely strong; in just a short while, the dirty water was sucked into the cracks in the rocks, and clean new water gushed forth.

The animals' Carefree Spring water once again became clean and clear.

Last were those two dogs.

They had long since been frolicking in the water, and could even dive and swim underwater.

No one knew when they had learned it.

It could be said that the creatures in Zhao Chi's territory were all, at this moment, enjoying themselves to the utmost.

Until before 4 p. m.

Uncle Zhao Qizong sent a message:

【All family lords, as well as members of the Zhao clan, come to the meeting room at 4 p. m. for a meeting. Don't be late.】

Zhao Chi rose from Gu Qing's smooth, slippery thighs.

He dressed and teleported out.

There were many people at this meeting; the Zhao clan members, including those without territories, were all present—Zhao Huai and Zhao Jiao were among them as well.

There were 48 people in the entire meeting room, filling it up.

Fifteen people sat at the central table. Clan Head Zhao Shizhang sat in the main seat, with four uncles beside him, and ten aunts.

Zhao Chi's generation—his elder brothers and elder sisters of the clan—all sat in the scattered seats at the back.

The corner where Zhao Chi usually sat had been taken by a sister-in-law.
