Chapter 454: Chapter 316: Four-Way Melee (17)
Hot steam rose, making Zhao Chi feel a little dizzy.
He blew the steam away, revealing the scalding spring water below.
He reached down to scoop up some water again.
Hot!
It wasn’t enough to burn him, but the sudden contact definitely felt scorching.
’Tang Ruan will definitely love these two kinds of hot springs.’
After a quick survey of the new hot springs, Zhao Chi was very satisfied with the expanded Carefree Spring.
The large Carefree Spring at the very edge could be used by the animals, starting today.
Before long, all the various Supplies had been sorted and stored.
Sure enough, all the female villagers came running to soak in the hot springs.
They all had basically the same reactions and expressions.
First, they would arrive at the center of Penglai Village, be surprised to find the Carefree Spring gone, and then start looking around.
Then, they would see the thick steam rising from the south and hear the women’s comfortable moans.
They would run to the south and stare, dumbfounded, at the vast new expanse of the Carefree Spring.
After that, they would enter the water.
As they waded deeper, the pleasant sensation would travel from their toes to their calves, from their calves to between their legs, and then to their waists, chests, backs, necks, and heads.
Then, just like the other women in the spring, their faces would flush as they let out soft moans.
Gu Qing and the other two arrived as well.
Like the other women, they went through the same set of reactions.
Gu Qing was especially happy.
"My Lord, why didn’t you say anything? This is amazing! I don’t ever want to get out."
Tang Ruan nodded repeatedly. "Yeah, it’s even more comfortable than a warm bed. I don’t want to leave either."
Qi Yue didn’t speak.
She was breathing lightly with her eyes closed.
Zhao Chi chuckled. "This hot spring has a high Comfort Level, but it’s still not as good as you three. I feel more comfortable inside you."
Tang Ruan was taken aback, then covered her mouth and giggled.
Qi Yue also opened her eyes to glance at Zhao Chi before closing them again with a faint smile.
Gu Qing was even more forward, giggling coquettishly. "Actually, My Lord, you make us feel very comfortable too. Even better than this spring water. Especially those ten seconds when we gain Energy Points... it’s to die for."
Seeing their reactions, he knew they had all misunderstood him.
’And they seem happy about it?’
Zhao Chi had been about to explain, but he decided against it.
Gu Qing pointed to the large hot springs nearby. "My Lord, can we use those other springs too? Can I go over there?"
"Of course. You can use any of them. But I’ve designated the one at the very end for the animals. Still, the springs have a strong self-cleaning Ability, so it wouldn’t be a problem to share one with them."
Gu Qing smiled. "I just want to go for a swim in the one next to it. Is that okay?"
"Of course. Pick any one you like, swim as you please."
Gu Qing chuckled, then swam off, showing off her peachy rear.
She had always enjoyed swimming in the Carefree Spring.
Unfortunately, the original medium-sized spring wasn’t very big and was often crowded, so she could never swim to her heart’s content.
But now, with these six large Carefree Springs, she was overjoyed.
She went straight to one of the large springs in the middle and began swimming freely, all by herself.
The remaining two, Tang Ruan and Qi Yue, didn’t share this hobby. They stayed close to Zhao Chi, soaking quietly.
Zhao Chi called to Tang Ruan. "Tang Ruan, come with me over there. There are two springs you’ll absolutely love."
Tang Ruan opened her eyes and asked innocently, "Huh? Ones I’ll like? Is it a sugar-water spring?"
"Where would I find a sugar-water spring?" Zhao Chi said, exasperated.
Qi Yue tilted her head and smiled. "If a spring like that really existed, you’d be all sticky after soaking in it."
Tang Ruan realized her idea was a bit unrealistic and laughed along, lightly patting her own cheeks.
Zhao Chi said, "Well, there was a saltwater spring option, but I didn’t choose it. Anyway, just come with me. You’ll like it."
"Okay~"
Tang Ruan happily followed Zhao Chi further in.
Qi Yue sat up and asked softly, "My Lord, what about me?"
Zhao Chi said, "You can come too, but those two springs might not be suitable for you."
"It’s fine. I’ll go take a look too." Qi Yue followed them.
The three of them arrived at the Ice Spring.
The temperature here was noticeably much lower.
The two women immediately sensed that the spring’s water wasn’t warm.
"So... this is full of cold water?" Tang Ruan stared at the water’s surface.
"Not just cold—it’s ice water. Try it."
Tang Ruan bit her lip and gently dipped her foot in.
"Whoa~ It’s so cold!"
Tang Ruan immediately pulled her leg back, a look of shock on her face.
Zhao Chi smiled. "The water temperature here is still manageable. The one over there is truly freezing. Don’t you like stimulating sensations? This kind of temperature stimulation should be better than you getting directly injured, right?"
Tang Ruan tilted her head and smiled. "They’re both good. Did My Lord choose this spring especially for me?"
Zhao Chi said, "I can’t say it was 100% the reason, but it was definitely one of the reasons."
Tang Ruan pinched her nose, her voice turning nasal. "Then I’ll get in and try it. I can’t let My Lord’s kindness go to waste."
"Don’t just jump straight in. You can splash some water on yourself first to get used to it before going in."
This time, Tang Ruan didn’t listen. She just smiled slightly and leaped in.
SPLASH!
"AHHH—!"
"YAHH—!"
Both women started screaming.
Tang Ruan screamed with excitement. She felt a jolt all over her Body as her Talent was instantly Effective.
Qi Yue screamed because the icy water splashed onto her Body, chilling her to the bone.
She ran straight behind Zhao Chi and hugged him tightly.
Zhao Chi chuckled. "This ice bath seems to be good for the Body, too. You could give it a try."
"Really?" Qi Yue was skeptical.
But seeing Tang Ruan frolicking in the water, she was somewhat convinced.
"Really. It can boost your Body’s immunity, but you can’t stay in for too long."
Tang Ruan shouted from the spring, "Qi Yue, you come in too! It feels amazing, hahaha."
Qi Yue looked at Tang Ruan, then at the Ice Spring.
"Then I guess I’ll try it too."
Qi Yue pulled Zhao Chi to the edge of the spring, clinging tightly to his arm as she slowly extended a long leg.
The moment her toes touched the icy water, they immediately curled up.
"Yikes, it’s so cold."
