Chapter 980

Although there are now beastmen and human soldiers at the front, they just joined, so their loyalty is too low.

This means that once their morale drops, they will easily collapse.

Once the enemy breaks through the defensive line, the elves cannot shoot at ease, and it will be hard for her to play to her advantage.

But her combat ability is rather complementary to his own.

In future battles against ordinary enemies, the two of them can cooperate.

Moreover, during previous battles, she was willing to give Zhao Chi extra spoils.

Now that their relationship has progressed further, she would probably be willing to give all the spoils to Zhao Chi.

Of course, Zhao Chi could not possibly do that.

"Finished reading?" Su Qin asked with a smile.

Zhao Chi nodded: "Mm, have you finished reading mine?"

Zhao Chi did not send her everything — he only sent her his own portion of information.

Su Qin shook her head: "No, I won't look at yours."

"Huh? Why?"

"Because I know you have secrets. But I'm too weak; I'm afraid that if I'm captured by the enemy later, I'd leak your information. If I don't know anything now, I won't be able to leak it."

This was the second time she had said something like this.

Zhao Chi asked in confusion: "Why do you always say I have secrets? What secrets could I have? How could you possibly know?"

Su Qin narrowed her eyes and smiled: "I just know."

"How did you find out?"

"I'm not telling you."

"Huh? How come you're not listening to me now?"

"I was just guessing. You only had that tiny handful of soldiers back then, yet you were able to come rescue me — I could hardly believe it at the time. And later when you fought South Forest Village, you were able to capture so many beastmen; with your combat stats, that simply shouldn't have been possible. So you definitely have a secret."

Zhao Chi thought it over, and indeed that was the case.

After all, his combat strength on the surface was too weak.

Combined with the fact that Su Qin paid extra attention to Zhao Chi, she really could notice.

Su Qin chuckled lightly: "Why aren't you saying anything? You're not planning to silence me, are you?"

Zhao Chi said: "That's right, I did have that thought. But before silencing you, I'll really tell you a secret."

"Huh? Don't say it, I don't want to hear, I really don't want to hear, you don't have to tell me."

"It's fine not to tell you — you'll be able to feel it anyway."

"Huh?"

Zhao Chi opened the system.

He looked at the energy information belonging to Su Qin.

【Skill】 Blissful Fury

【Partner】 Su Qin 6

He had originally thought this skill could only take effect on Gu Qing and the others; he hadn't expected Su Qin to be able to accumulate energy points too.

But this belonged to Blissful Fury — as long as Su Qin was happy enough, it would work.

Hereditary Enhancement probably wouldn't work, though.

He hadn't tried it yet, but in theory that was how it should be.

Even so, Su Qin being able to be strengthened by this Blissful Fury is still pretty good — it's a great skill in its own right.

And she had racked up 6 points in one go.

3 of those were accumulated before Zhao Chi had truly gotten started.

Zhao Chi had originally only meant to help her get into the mood sooner, so he lowered his head to help her — he hadn't expected her to burst out 3 energy points right then.

After things truly began, another 3 energy points were accumulated.

Perhaps because Su Qin was too excited today, her emotions were extremely abundant, so it was easy to reach.

This skill was also one of Zhao Chi's secrets.

Since Su Qin could obtain energy, telling her was fine.

Su Qin was still looking at Zhao Chi curiously.

Zhao Chi directly clicked to use it.

A strange light flashed.

"Ah—"

Su Qin shrieked and sprang up from the chair.

Ignoring the slight trembling of her body, she stared at the chair in astonishment, feeling as if Zhao Chi's tongue had appeared on the chair.

But there was nothing on the chair.

Yet the sensation did not fade.

"Ah! What's going on?"

Su Qin immediately pulled off her underwear and tossed it aside, then lowered her head to look carefully.

Of course there was nothing there.

Only the sensation she had just experienced.

After 10 seconds, Su Qin was gasping for breath and leaning on the table, staring at Zhao Chi in bewilderment.

"Zhao Chi, what's going on? Don't scare me."

Zhao Chi smiled: "Didn't you feel your attributes increase just now?"

Su Qin nodded: "I felt it. Just now my mood and morale both suddenly rose, but—but why do I feel your, your tongue…"

Zhao Chi said: "This is my secret. It can raise all your stats by 1 point in a short time, and increase both mood and morale by 50%."

Su Qin sighed: "Ah~ all stats? If you use this skill again when I'm casting a battle art or spiritual technique, the power of my attacks could go up quite a bit."

Zhao Chi nodded: "Yes. If you need it in battle later on, just let me know and I'll activate it for you."

"If it's activated within your territory, will I receive the bonus too even though I'm here?"

"It should work."

Su Qin laughed: "Not bad at all. I didn't expect a skill like this… it's just not very proper, ah!?"

She suddenly covered her mouth and cried out.

Zhao Chi asked, puzzled: "What's wrong?"

Su Qin murmured: "Those hundred-plus female soldiers of yours are all that skilled—could it be that you've… you've done this to all of them?"

Zhao Chi was speechless: "How is that possible! Don't overthink it. Including you, I've only had four women. Didn't I already tell you that?"

"Oh, right, hehe."

Su Qin laughed again.

The two chatted for a while longer, and the sky gradually darkened.

Su Qin began to urge Zhao Chi to leave.

"Alright, alright, hurry back. Don't waste time here with me. Just come visit me whenever you have the time."

Zhao Chi laughed: "You're always telling me to come, and now that I'm here you're shooing me away."

"That's different. You can't stay here too long—I definitely can't hold you up. Just come find me again tomorrow. Go on, hurry."

Zhao Chi nodded: "Alright, I'll head off then. See you later."

"Mm, bye-bye."

Zhao Chi's figure flashed and vanished.

Su Qin sighed softly, touched her lower abdomen—there was still a tearing pain.

She walked to the bed wanting to lie down for a bit, but discovered the bedsheet was gone.

Huh?

She looked left and right, but truly couldn't find it.

Did Zhao Chi take it?

No way? What would he want with a bedsheet soaked in filthy fluid?

It really was Zhao Chi who took it.

During the time she was drawing her bath.

On the mandarin-duck pattern of the bedsheet, there was a patch of pale red bloodstain.
