"Martial Soul Blood...?"
Gu Ye looked at the small vial of serum in his hand, then at Zhu Zhuqing, and said, "Release your Martial Soul, Netherworld Cat, and you'll find out soon enough."
Is that all?
Zhu Zhuqing, somewhat curious, didn't think much of it and released her martial soul, the Netherworld Cat.
"Next, I'll extract a drop of blood from your martial soul as payment for this treatment. That should be alright, right?"
"Can."
This was the first time Zhu Zhuqing had ever heard of Martial Soul Blood. She didn't know if it would harm her, but Gu Ye had just healed her, so this was her reward.
Seeing that Zhu Zhuqing had agreed, Gu Ye immediately took action.
The martial soul scalpel, just like before, emitted a white light and then sliced towards Zhu Zhuqing's martial soul, the Netherworld Cat.
To everyone's horror, Zhu Zhuqing's martial spirit, the Netherworld Cat, was not a physical entity, yet Gu Ye managed to cut a wound on it. Immediately afterward, a drop of black blood flowed from the Netherworld Cat martial spirit. Gu Ye quickly filled a small vial with the black blood, sealed it, and then restored Zhu Zhuqing's martial spirit.
"alright."
Gu Ye watched as the drop of black blood was quickly broken down and fused with the serum inside the vial as soon as it entered. Thinking of the serum ability he had exchanged from the surgical system, he smiled happily.
"There really is blood!"
Looking at the blood that Gu Ye had just taken from her martial soul, the Netherworld Cat, Zhu Zhuqing felt that her understanding had been refreshed.
"Of course there are. To put it simply, the martial spirit in this world is a special kind of genetic energy, and what I call blood is just a special energy on the martial spirit. Don't be too surprised."
"Oh, right, Zhu Zhuqing, I took your most precious drop of blood. You might not feel anything now, but you might be a little weak in a couple of days. How about this, I'll give you something to replenish your blood, and then..."
Gu Ye knew the harm of taking blood from a martial soul, because he was taking the most primal energy of the martial soul. He found Zhu Zhuqing pleasing to the eye and quite liked her... figure and appearance. Just as he was about to help her, the surgical system suddenly initiated a mission.
[bite!]
[Mission: Extract the martial soul blood of the Shrek Seven Devils]
[Rewards: Four bottles of Martial Soul Serum, one bottle of Martial Soul Enhancement Serum, one bottle of Martial Soul Evolution Serum, and 5000 Surgery Points]
Upon seeing this mission, Gu Ye looked at Zhu Zhuqing's Martial Soul Serum in his hand, then at the mission in the system, and then at Zhu Zhuqing, lost in thought.
This serum is extremely precious because it is a special item in the surgical system. Gu Ye spent 3,000 surgical points just to exchange for the Martial Soul Serum.
The effects of this Martial Soul Serum are nothing short of miraculous, because once it is integrated into the blood of a Soul Master's Martial Soul, it can then be injected into an ordinary person or Soul Master to grant that Soul Master a Martial Soul.
The Martial Soul Enhancement Serum is even more expensive, costing 5000 surgical points per bottle. Its effects are also incredibly powerful.
It can enhance a Soul Master's Martial Soul in a certain aspect, such as speed-type enhancing speed, or strength-type enhancing strength.
The Martial Soul Evolution Serum is even more expensive; it costs Gu Ye 10,000 surgical points to exchange for one bottle.
And the effect is incredibly strong.
To allow a martial soul to evolve in all aspects.
The effect is even stronger than when the Shrek Seven Devils took the celestial medicine in the original work.
It can be said that a single bottle of Martial Soul Evolution Serum can guarantee a Soul Master the potential to become a god.
Unfortunately, Gu Ye can only sigh in vain, because he doesn't even have three thousand surgical points right now. If he wants to buy one for tens of thousands, he would have to perform a castration surgery on Tang San.
The serum in Gu Ye's hand is a martial soul serum, which has been integrated into Zhu Zhuqing's martial soul blood. After that, as long as it is injected into an ordinary person or a soul master, they will be able to obtain the Netherworld Cat martial soul.
However, Gu Ye had another idea: what would happen if the Netherworld Cat Martial Soul Serum were injected into Zhu Zhuqing's body?
This system remains unexplained, and Gu Ye is still unaware of it.
"Why are you looking at me like that?" Zhu Zhuqing asked, puzzled, after noticing that Gu Ye had been staring at her for a while.
"Oh, it's nothing." Gu Ye came back to his senses and said, "I just took your most precious drop of blood. I'll use the things I gave you to help you recover. Wait a moment."
Gu Ye went into another room, rummaged around in it for a while, and came out with several items in his hand.
Zhu Zhuqing glanced at it and noticed that Gu Ye was holding a strange tubular object with a sharp, pointed tip that gleamed with a cold light. The middle part was tubular and seemed to contain some special liquid, along with a medicine bottle—a strange bottle.
Gu Ye placed three items in front of Zhu Zhuqing and said, "This bottle is a medicine to help you replenish your blood. It can help your martial spirit recover some of its strength and also help you improve your strength. If you feel weak in two or three days, take it. As for what it is, you don't need to know. If you trust me, I will use it; if you don't trust me, you don't have to. And this..."
Gu Ye glanced at the syringe that was exactly the same as the one he used for injections in his previous life and said, "This is for attack. It contains a strong paralyzing liquid. Once injected into someone's body, even some powerful people cannot be immune. Consider it a gift for self-defense. The instructions for use are included."
"And the last one is called pepper spray. It contains a special gas and is also used for attack. It is twice as effective against men, but it is not harmful. It is only for defense. If you see a man you don't like, just spray him with this. It works very well."
After Gu Ye finished speaking, he handed the three items to Zhu Zhuqing and gestured for her to leave.
Zhu Zhuqing looked at Gu Ye with a puzzled expression, not understanding why he was giving her these things.
She could understand if it were medicine, but the needle, and the pepper spray he mentioned—both sounded like incredibly powerful weapons, certainly extremely rare. She and Gu Ye were not related, and he...
"Don't overthink it. I only gave you this because of your blood. Alright, take it and go. I need to rest." Gu Ye urged Zhu Zhuqing to leave as if she were being asked to.
Zhu Zhuqing put away the three items, glanced at Gu Ye, and turned to leave.
As she reached the gate, she seemed to remember something, stopped, turned around, and asked, "I still don't know your name?"
"Gu Ye." Gu Ye said casually, and continued fiddling with the items on his desk.
"Gu Ye..." Zhu Zhuqing murmured, glanced at Gu Ye, and said with gratitude, "Thank you."
"No need. Oh right, I forgot to tell you, you can come to me anytime if you want to become stronger."
Zhu Zhuqing, who had just stepped out of the door, paused for a moment upon hearing Gu Ye's words, and then left the clinic.
As Zhu Zhuqing left, Gu Ye glanced at her retreating figure and said, "I hope she can use those two things on the right people."
Gu Ye had his reasons for handing the needle and pepper spray to Zhu Zhuqing.
His current mission is to collect the martial soul blood of the Shrek Seven Devils, so it's impossible for him to go to Shrek Academy, since Gu Ye doesn't have a good impression of Shrek Academy.
Moreover, Gu Ye's mental age has long surpassed that of someone who is already in school.
Now he doesn't want to go to Shrek Academy; the only way to complete the mission is for the Shrek Seven Devils to come to him.
If Zhu Zhuqing uses those two items properly, someone should come looking for him tomorrow or the day after.
