Reincarnated as a Mosquito, I Sucked the Reborn Empress to Tears - Chapter 374: Data Inventory, One Step Away from the 7th Complete Evolution
The night was deep.
In the luxurious hotel suite arranged by the White Eagle Empire for the Great Xia Team.
Gu Yuexi washed off the smoke and dust, changed into a loose-fitting set of pajamas, and sat cross-legged on the bed.
Her damp hair was draped over her shoulders, shedding some of her usual coldness for a touch of girlish softness.
In the palm of her hand.
Chu Sheng was sprawled on his back, the very picture of exhaustion.
“Speak.”
Gu Yuexi suddenly spoke, her voice laced with scrutiny:
“Tell me, how were you able to draw this sword?”
“Did you secretly practice for a long time when I wasn’t looking?”
Gu Yuexi was utterly shocked that Chu Sheng had been able to fully draw the sword.
Besides the shock, she also felt a little wronged.
’The Divine Sword clearly acknowledges me, so why can I only draw it a little while this damned mosquito can draw it completely?!’
’That damned mosquito… surely it doesn’t understand the Sword Dao, does it?’
Hearing this, Chu Sheng rolled his eyes, too lazy to even twitch a wing.
BUZZ… (’Please, you put the sword away every day. How could I practice?’)
BUZZ BUZZ… (’Heh, look at you being so stingy. Don’t worry, I just used a trick—exploited a glitch—to force the sword out. It was a one-time opportunity.’)
Chu Sheng truly didn’t understand the Sword Dao. A mosquito wielding a sword? No matter how you thought about it, it was just plain weird.
He had only succeeded in drawing the sword by imitating Xiaobai’s aura, getting the Divine Sword to show him some respect and come out of its sheath for a single moment.
After all, Xiaobai was the best friend of the Divine Sword’s original master!
’I can’t believe it actually worked.’
Hearing this, Gu Yuexi blushed a little and huffed.
“I am not stingy!”
After a pause, she asked again,
“Really? Only once?”
However, she received no answer.
When she looked down, Chu Sheng had already conked out, fast asleep.
…
…
「The next morning.」
The members of the Great Xia Team packed their belongings, preparing to return home on a private plane.
「Inside the hotel lobby.」
“What? You’re not coming back with us?”
Chen Shanhe looked at Gu Yuexi, a little surprised.
“Mm.”
Gu Yuexi nodded, her expression calm.
“I have some personal matters to attend to here in the White Eagle Empire. It will probably take about half a month.”
Chen Shanhe frowned.
If it were any other student, he would have tied them up and dragged them back.
But this was Gu Yuexi, the great hero who had just performed a world-shaking feat.
Besides, she had always been very independent.
After a moment of silence, Chen Shanhe nodded.
“Since you’ve decided, we can’t stop you.”
“However…” Chen Shanhe lowered his voice, his expression serious as he warned her,
“You must remember, although the spot for ’Divine Son’ is basically yours, it hasn’t been officially announced yet.”
“There’s no telling what variables might pop up in the meantime.”
“While you’re out, you must be careful. Finish your business and return to the country as soon as possible to avoid any unnecessary complications.”
“Understood. Thank you, Instructor.”
Gu Yuexi nodded her thanks.
…
「After seeing off the main group.」
Gu Yuexi found a secluded manor hotel in Newark City to stay in and began her closed-door Cultivation.
The reason she stayed in the White Eagle Empire was that there was another place she had to go—a place she had visited in her past life.
However, to enter that Secret Realm… ’Since I’ve arrived early in this life, my current Cultivation is still insufficient!’
Therefore, she decided to go directly into seclusion and use the newly acquired Nine Heavens Star Flower to try and break through to the next realm!
But before entering seclusion, she specifically grabbed Chu Sheng and warned him with a stern face:
“Damned mosquito, I’m going into seclusion.”
“You’d better behave yourself. Don’t go causing any huge trouble I can’t clean up!”
“We’re in the White Eagle Empire, after all. We need to be cautious.”
To this, Chu Sheng had only one response:
*Whimper, whimper…* ’Why are you being so mean to this mosquito?’
’This Lord Mosquito is the most law-abiding citizen there is~’
…
「Over the next few days.」
Gu Yuexi was busy with her closed-door Cultivation, trying to break through to the next realm.
And Chu Sheng… was even busier than her!
Every time night fell, a black mosquito, like a Ghost, would appear right on schedule in the Brown Clan’s private Secret Realm—the one said to be so secure “not even a fly could get in.”
After a few days, he had absorbed a full 30,000 Evolution Points!
[Current Evolution Points: 52,910]
And besides the Evolution Points, those slightly High-Tier Spiritual Plants had also brought Chu Sheng some improvements in his Realms.
’System, open the data panel!’
[Host: Chu Sheng]
[Race: Silent Extinction Divine Mosquito]
[Lifespan: 500 years]
[Bloodline: King-level (Five Stars)]
[Qi Blood: 839,800 (Sixth-Grade Late Stage)]
[Mental Power: 889,800 (Sixth-Grade Late Stage) (Secretly absorbed 40,000 from the protective shield)]
[Evolution Points: 52,910]
[Notice: The next full evolution requires reaching a Qi Blood Value of 300,000 (Sixth-Grade Early Stage), Mental Power of 300,000 (Sixth-Grade Early Stage), and consuming 100,000 Evolution Points. Additionally, at least five Realms must reach the Great Perfection Realm.]
[Fire Origin: Initial Glimpse (10,000/100,000)]
[Spatial Realm: Great Perfection (8,300/10,000)]
[Gold Realm: Great Perfection (8,600/10,000)]
[Thunder Realm: Perfection (7,000/8,000)]
[Earth Realm: Perfection (6,500/8,000)]
[Water Realm: Perfection (7,000/8,000)]
[Wood Realm: Great Success (4,500/5,000)]
[Destruction Realm: Minor Success (870/2,000)]
[Life Realm: Minor Success (550/2,000)]
[Time Realm: Minor Success (501/2,000)]
“Not bad, not bad.”
Chu Sheng rubbed his front legs together.
’As long as I grind out the Thunder, Earth, and Water Realms a bit more, I’ll have five at Great Perfection and satisfy the fourth condition for evolution!’
’As for the Qi Blood and Mental Power realm conditions, I’ve long since surpassed them!’
’And I’m already more than halfway to getting the Evolution Points I need!’
’The next full evolution is just around the corner!’
…
「After taking stock of his gains.」
That night, under the cover of darkness, Chu Sheng once again snuck into the Brown Clan’s private Secret Realm—the Spirit Plant Garden!
With Adam’s blood, he could move through the Spirit Plant Garden as if it were unguarded; none of the alarm systems had any effect on him.
Oh, right!
That guy, Adam, was also one of the few survivors from the White Eagle Empire.
The kid was pretty clever. Once he saw things were going south, he just pretended to fight, holding back to survive. In the end, he got through it without a scratch.
「Inside the Brown Clan’s Secret Realm.」
Chu Sheng hovered in the air, surveying the vast garden and scratching his head.
’This isn’t good.’
’If I keep draining them like this, they’re going to find out!’
People patrolled this Spirit Plant Garden every day, checking on the growth of the Spiritual Plants and so on.
Therefore, whenever Chu Sheng drained these Spiritual Plants at night, he did it stealthily, with a core principle of spreading the damage evenly…
A sip from here, a sip from there, never draining any single plant completely.
All this was to prevent the daytime patrols from noticing anything unusual.
But after several days, no matter how careful Chu Sheng was, he had already sucked some areas nearly bare.
’At this rate, I probably can’t hide it any longer.’
’Ahem… well, in that case!’
’I won’t hold back anymore!’
’Tonight’s the night! I’ll go all out, drink my fill, and wreak some havoc!’
’I’ll get my fill in one go, then make a run for it!!!’
’You damned capitalists, Lord Mosquito has arrived!’
