Reincarnated as a Mosquito, I Sucked the Reborn Empress to Tears-Chapter 97: Qi Blood Breakthrough to Rank 3! Visited by the Governor of Sui Ming Province?
Gu Yuexi’s eye twitched violently, and she could feel herself getting heated.
’This bastard!’
’He really is planning this!’
’No! Absolutely not!’
’I am the great Beast Taming Empress! How could I let a mosquito walk all over me?!’
At that moment, an unprecedented sense of crisis and urgency surged through Gu Yuexi’s heart.
’Mental Power!’
’I have to increase my Mental Power as fast as possible!’
’And it has to be the kind of boost that will create a huge gap between us all at once!’
’I must... I must find a Mental Power treasure that only I can use, one that this mosquito can’t absorb!’
’Otherwise, I’ll never be able to shake off this massive potential threat!’
But the problem was, Mental Power treasures were extremely rare. Forget Du Nan First Middle School; even the Provincial Government might not have what she was looking for.
A Celestial Tier Ultimate Treasure like the Spiritual Crystal was completely out of the question. Across the entire nation, it was unlikely a second one could be found.
’So... where else can I look?’
Countless thoughts flashed through Gu Yuexi’s mind, and finally, a place name clearly emerged.
Hong Kong Island!
’The most unique city in the Great Xia Federation, and also the world-renowned Fengshui Capital and Array City!’
’Due to its special geographical location and history, Hong Kong Island is home to the world’s largest concentration of Feng Shui Masters, Array Masters, and even Western Astrologers and Spirit Mediums!’
’All sorts of Heavenly and Earthly Treasures that can enhance Mental Power and nourish the soul are not considered rare there!’
’If I can just spend some time on Hong Kong Island, I’m absolutely confident I can find a suitable treasure for myself and leave this mosquito far behind!’
’Hm? Hong Kong Island?’
Chu Sheng heard her thoughts, and his own mind stirred.
’Sounds like a good place!’
’My Qi Blood is increasing rapidly, but my Mental Power growth really isn’t keeping up. If I could get my hands on something good like that Spiritual Crystal again and take a few sips...’
’When that happens, my Mental Power will surpass the Empress’s, and I, Lord Mosquito, will turn the tables and become the master!’
’But this Empress is too damn cunning. She’s actually trying to find a Mental Power treasure that only she can absorb?’
’Is she that desperate not to be "tamed" by me?’
Chu Sheng felt a little defiant.
’As if there’s anything in this world I can’t suck dry!’ 𝒻𝑟𝘦𝘦𝘸ℯ𝒷𝑛𝘰𝓋ℯ𝘭.𝘤𝘰𝘮
’Just wait until I evolve a few more times. My body will get bigger, my proboscis will get thicker, and then, I won’t care what it is—I’ll just stick it in and suck with all my might!’
’This damn mosquito...’
Sensing Chu Sheng’s defiant emotions, Gu Yuexi gritted her teeth. The more she thought about it, the more imperative the trip to Hong Kong Island seemed.
’After the joint exams end, there’s a full two-month break before university starts. I can make good use of that time.’
’But...’
’Going to Hong Kong Island requires a special pass, and that’s not easy to get.’
At this thought, Gu Yuexi frowned slightly, feeling troubled once again.
Because of the special situation on Hong Kong Island, there were numerous foreign powers present, countless underground forces, and a chaotic mix of people. It was also known as the "City of Sin"!
The Federation’s review process for young geniuses wanting to travel to Hong Kong Island had always been extremely strict, fearing they might be assassinated by hostile forces or even abducted.
’With my current status, classified as "top secret," getting a pass will probably be next to impossible...’
’Oh well. I’ll cross that bridge when I come to it. I won’t think about it for now. I can figure something out after the joint exams are over.’
Gu Yuexi focused her mind, pushing aside her thoughts and continuing to concentrate on refining the King-level Essence Blood.
...
The night passed uneventfully.
The next morning, as the first rays of sunlight streamed through the Cultivation Chamber’s window, Chu Sheng opened his eyes in satisfaction.
After a full night of digestion, the mouthful of King-level Essence Blood in his belly had been completely converted into his own power.
[Ding! Blood digestion complete! Acquired 107 Evolution Points! Current Evolution Points: 235!]
Without a moment’s pause, he flew toward the box of Mountain-Shaking Demon Ape Essence Blood and took another mouthful!
[Ding! Host has absorbed 545 Qi Blood! Current Total Qi Blood is 2253!]
[Estimated digestion time: 8 hours. Estimated Evolution Points upon completion: 110!]
[Ding! Host’s Qi Blood Realm has broken through to the Third-Grade Early Stage!]
[Ding! Host’s Mental Power has slightly increased. Mental Power +50! Current Mental Power is 950!]
’Third-Grade!’
Chu Sheng felt the power within him, now several times stronger than before, and his heart swelled with heroic ambition.
’I have enough Qi Blood Value for the fifth evolution!’
’All I’m missing is Evolution Points!’
’After this digestion is done, my Total Evolution Points will reach 345... I’ll only be 5 points short. A couple of sips from a Spirit Grass will be enough!’
’However, the fifth evolution process takes two days, which is a bit long. I should probably wait for Xiao Ran to deliver those hundred Spirit Grasses.’
’Those Heavenly and Earthly Treasures should be able to shorten the evolution time by a lot!’
A short while later, Gu Yuexi’s phone suddenly vibrated.
It was a message from Xiao Ran: [Gu, I’m at the school gate. Where are you? I have the hundred Third-Grade Spirit Grasses ready. Is it convenient for you to come and pick them up?]
’They’re finally here!’
Both Gu Yuexi and Chu Sheng’s spirits lifted. They planned to go out, grab the items, and immediately return to their seclusion.
However, when they walked out of the Cultivation Chamber and arrived at the school gate, they were taken aback by the scene before them.
At the school gate, it wasn’t just Xiao Ran’s flashy, limited-edition sports car that was parked there.
Beside it was a long line of black sedans with special license plates.
A large group of security personnel in black suits, their auras calm and steady, had cordoned off the entire area.
Xiao Ran was standing by his car with a helpless look on his face. Next to him stood several figures with vast and powerful auras.
The head of the Provincial Education Bureau, Zhang Chengye, was respectfully accompanying a middle-aged man in a Zhongshan suit with a stern, imposing face.
This middle-aged man was just standing there quietly, yet he exuded a terrifying aura as deep as an abyss and as vast as the sea, as if he were the very center of the world!
’A King-level Powerhouse!’
Gu Yuexi’s pupils contracted slightly. She recognized this man.
The Governor of Sui Ming Province, Qi Chongshan!
’The most powerful and authoritative figure in all of Sui Ming Province!’
’What... is he doing here?’
"BUZZ BUZZ? (’Holy crap, who’s this guy? What’s with the huge entourage?’)"
Perched on Gu Yuexi’s shoulder, Chu Sheng was also a bit dumbfounded.
He could sense an unfathomably terrifying power contained within the body of the middle-aged man in the Zhongshan suit standing at the very front.
It was an absolute suppression on the level of one’s very life-form, far more dreadful than any powerhouse he had ever seen before!
"You must be Gu Yuexi?"
A gentle smile appeared on Governor Qi Chongshan’s naturally imposing face as he took the initiative to walk toward them.
His gaze lingered on Gu Yuexi for only a moment before it fell upon the ferocious-looking mosquito on her shoulder, a flash of amazement in his eyes.
Zhang Chengye quickly made the introduction. "Gu, this is the Governor of our Sui Ming Province, Lord Qi Chongshan!"
"Governor Qi," Gu Yuexi said, nodding with composure.
"Haha, no need to be so formal."
Qi Chongshan waved his hand and got straight to the point. "I came here today on behalf of all of Du Nan City to thank you and your Contracted Beast for solving a massive problem for us!"
He pointed toward the school’s back mountain, his tone filled with emotion. "The bug infestation at Du Nan First Middle School... Our Provincial Government and the Federation’s expert teams studied it for two years and were completely helpless!"
"To think you two solved it in just a few short hours! Truly, heroes can be found among the young!"
BUZZ BUZZ BUZZ... ’Clearly, it’s heroes can be found among mosquitoes,’ Chu Sheng silently corrected in his mind.
At the side, Zhang Chengye also chimed in with a look of admiration, his gaze toward Gu Yuexi and Chu Sheng filled with appreciation and satisfaction.
