Chapter 42: The Master of Life and Breath
"You just..." Yan Chu hesitated for a moment, but continued to ask, "It seems like you were outside?"
Gu Qinyuan raised his lips and smiled meaningfully: "Yes, I saw you coming to see me, so I came in."
Yan Chu couldn't help but complain in his heart.
How did this come in? Didn't this flash back?
She couldn't help but ask curiously, "What exactly is your special ability?"
Could that ability of teleportation just now also be one of his special powers?
Gu Qinyuan raised his eyebrows, casually hooked a strand of hair by her ear, then lowered his head and moved closer to her.
"Want to know?"
Yan Chu looked at his face so close to him and nodded firmly.
"Then...what will you offer in exchange?"
The pleasant voice was vaguely alluring. His slender fingers casually curled the end of the hair, and his fingertips rubbed her cheek lightly, causing a slight tremor.
Yan Chu's heart trembled slightly, and he turned away with some dissatisfaction: "Some people say they are my people, but they refuse to tell me anything."
Gu Qinyuan paused, then smiled. He let go of her hair and pinched her cheek lightly.
"Since Miss Yan wants to hear it so much, I'll tell you."
Gu Qinyuan closed the glass door leading to the rooftop, and the gauze curtain that had been fluttering in the wind just now suddenly fell down quietly.
"My ability is quite complicated to operate, and it's hard to explain it in a few words."
Yan Chu tilted his head: "So what is it?"
Gu Qinyuan narrowed his eyes slightly and said word by word: "Master of Life and Breath."
Live and breathe... dominate?
It sounds very powerful, but Yan Chu couldn't imagine what kind of ability it was.
"Let me show you briefly," Gu Qinyuan spread his hands in front of her, "Do you see it?"
Yan Chu looked at his empty palms, bewildered: "What did you see?"
Gu Qinyuan's lips curled up slightly: "It's right that you didn't see it."
Yan Chu: …???
Are you kidding me!
Seeing her angry look, Gu Qinyuan couldn't help but chuckle, "It's normal that you can't see it. What I just showed you is indeed my special ability."
Yan Chu looked at his hand in confusion: "What exactly do you mean by life and interest..."
"Simply put, all cells and microorganisms in this world are under my control."
Seeing Yan Chu looking a little confused, Gu Qinyuan walked up to her and put his left hand on her lower back.
"For example, healing wounds involves using your supernatural powers to stimulate the rapid division of your epidermal cells."
Yan Chu seemed to understand, but also seemed not to understand: "What about the car explosion?"
"Initiation of gasoline explosions through microbial metabolism of flammable gases."
"What's going on with that iron gate today?"
"Well, I used microorganisms that secrete strong acids to corrode the iron door."
“…”
Is that so scientific?
Yan Chu blinked slowly, and suddenly thought of a terrible possibility: "Does life also include..."
Before she could finish her words, Gu Qinyuan suddenly grabbed her chin.
Gu Qinyuan looked at her slightly widened clear eyes with great interest: "Miss, I have already answered your question. Now it's my turn to ask."
"Tell me, what do you want to see me for?"
After hearing his question, Yan Chu remembered why she had come to see Gu Qinyuan today.
Business is important. Business is important.
She coughed uncomfortably and asked indirectly, "I came here to ask if you had any special feelings when using your superpowers?"
Gu Qinyuan: "Special feeling?"
"It's like... for example, there's a flow of energy in the body?" Yan Chu gestured with his hands. "This energy flows throughout the body, and you can use it when you need it, like this?"
Gu Qinyuan raised his eyebrows slightly, then nodded: "If I must say it, yes, right?"
When Yan Chu heard this, he immediately became happy: "Then can you tell me how you felt that energy?"
"Why do you want to know this?" Gu Qinyuan asked.
...As expected, I asked.
How should she explain it?
Yan Chu blinked his innocent eyes, trying to get away with it.
"I was thinking that maybe I too have awakened my powers, but I don't know it yet... so I wanted to hear your experience."
There was a hint of gloomy emotion in Gu Qinyuan's dark eyes.
Seeing that he didn't speak, Yan Chu couldn't help feeling a little uneasy.
What's wrong? Is her excuse too outrageous?
Yan Chu was just thinking about how to make amends when he heard Gu Qinyuan ask in a cold tone:
"You were invisible, cast a spell, and suddenly became stronger. Aren't those supernatural powers?"
Yan Chu: “…”
Yan Chu: "If I say those are really the talismans my master left me, would you believe me?"
…
In the end, she was asked to leave the room by Gu Qinyuan with the excuse that "it's too late, time to go to bed."
Before the door closed, Yan Chu seemed to see some unhappiness on his usually cold face.
Maybe it's because he placed his trust in me, but I still deceived him with all kinds of nonsense reasons.
But she really couldn't tell anyone about the system and the card drawing.
Yan Chu sighed slightly and was about to go downstairs to his room to sleep when the tightly closed door behind him suddenly opened again.
A large, bony hand grabbed her wrist and pulled her straight into the room.
As soon as Yan Chu stood firm, she was pressed against the door panel. Her back was against the cold door panel, and she blinked at the person in front of her.
"that……"
After the heavy curtains were drawn, the room became darker and she could not see his expression.
"Aren't you supposed to feel the energy? Close your eyes."
Gu Qinyuan's breath touched the side of her neck, which was a little itchy.
Yan Chu closed her eyes obediently, and then felt him holding her hand.
His slender and powerful fingers squeezed into her fingers almost forcefully, interlocking with hers, and his cold palms pressed against hers without any gap.
This seems a bit ambiguous, doesn't it?
Yan Chu couldn't help but struggle, but he held her tighter.
"Hold still. Now imagine you are in warm water."
He seemed to really want to help himself.
But taking a bath is easy to think of.
She recalled the very comfortable marble bathtub in her home, added a few drops of rose oil to the water, and let the water flow down her body.
The misty fog reflected the night view outside the window, and she could completely relax her body.
Before he could think about it for long, Yan Chu felt as if he was really soaked in warm water and began to feel dizzy again.
Gu Qinyuan leaned close to her ear, and his clear, pleasant voice swept across her heart like a feather.
"Then imagine that all the energy is gradually gathering in the palm of your hand."
Yan Chu opened his eyes dazedly.
Will this work?
When Potato guided her before, she didn't feel anything.
She imagined that all the energy in her body was flowing to her palms, but this time it seemed different from before. She could clearly feel the heat in her palms rising.
