However, just a moment later, Kong Ming'an continued, "...but the Snow Empress is no longer one."
Gu Yue was taken aback.
"No longer?"
"Ah."
"why?"
Kong Ming'an's gaze remained calm, his tone still carrying that seriousness that distinguished between different people: "Because she's different."
Gu Yue: “???”
Gu Yue's resentment towards the Snow Emperor, whom she had only met a few times, intensified once again!
Why is she different? Why is this guy biased towards her? The contracts are almost identical, so why is she different?
This wasn't jealousy, but rather a resentment and unwillingness to accept being outshone. Gu Yue fell silent and didn't speak again.
She felt that whenever she mentioned Xue Di, she would be humiliated.
Picking up her clothes, she glanced at the unobstructed laboratory, then raised her hand to summon the surrounding elemental power, quickly constructing an opaque elemental barrier in front of her, enveloping herself within it, and prepared to change.
She knew that the other person possessed a certain ability to see through obstacles and reveal the truth. In short, if the other person wanted to, he could probably see her changing clothes clearly, leaving her with no secrets whatsoever.
However, Gu Yue no longer cared about this. After all, her body had already been treated by the other party through touching and pressing. What did it matter if she was looked at a few times?
She didn't think she could escape his clutches; it was only a matter of time.
She even now hoped that the other party would focus all their attention on her, and that they would not mind attacking her directly, as long as they did not attack Qiu'er.
Since he's already sold himself out for the Soul Beast Clan, it's reasonable for him to sell a little more to save Qiu'er, right?
As for why she still created an elemental barrier despite thinking this way, it was mostly for her own psychological comfort.
She needs time to get used to it; right now, she's not yet able to change clothes calmly and confidently under the other person's gaze.
Well, not right now.
Silently, I give myself all sorts of reasons to justify my behavior.
As Gu Yue unbuttoned his uniform from the Sun Moon Royal Soul Master Academy, he took out the clothes from the box.
However, when she fully unfolded the so-called garment and saw its entirety, her movements involuntarily froze.
Is this thing even wearable?
Gu Yue glanced at the thin fabric in her hand, but ultimately turned her gaze to the instruction manual beside her.
……
……
Time passed slowly, and after a while, the elemental barrier gently fell like a curtain of water, revealing Gu Yue, who had already changed her clothes.
Kong Ming'an looked up and saw the Dragon King Miss, who had changed into a maid outfit.
Its basic color scheme is similar to Qiu'er's, both being classic black and white, but in some easily noticeable areas, the design concepts are completely different.
Qiu'er's outfit, while eye-catching due to her temperament and expression, was essentially a relatively conservative work outfit.
Aside from the various lace trims and accessories that added a touch of refinement, it didn't actually intentionally reveal anything.
The outfit Miss Dragon King is wearing right now is clearly not for work, but more for casual use.
The upper body abandons the traditional high collar or shirt collar design of maid outfits, replacing it with a bold cutout.
The excess fabric was removed, revealing her fair and graceful neck and large expanses of fair skin. Her full curves were partially concealed by the lace trim at the edges.
Instead of using decorations like bows at the back, a large section of fabric was removed from the lower back upwards.
The smooth, delicate spine extends naturally down to below the shoulder blades, secured only by a few thin black straps that cross and accentuate the graceful lines of the back.
The skirt is slightly long, completely covering the Dragon King's long legs, but its cut is a clever overlapping design.
With just a slight step, the hem of her skirt would naturally part, revealing a thin layer of white suspender stockings underneath.
The stockings are edged with delicate lace, and the straps connect to the waistband above, allowing them to peek out as you walk, making them exceptionally convenient.
In short, this outfit was not intended for use in the maid's daily service, but rather for certain routine, day-to-day tasks.
Chapter 206 The Silver Dragon King's Astounding Wisdom
Feeling the coolness of the air against her skin, Gu Yue instinctively covered her chest with one hand, trying to block out the overly revealing view.
With her other hand, she tightly gripped the gap between the overlapping hems of her skirt to prevent it from being exposed when she walked.
Gu Yue's expression was slightly unnatural. She could feel that the main source of the restrictive feeling from the clothes came from the few seemingly decorative but actually crucial ties at the lower back.
She had no doubt that if she untied those few straps, this seemingly complicated outfit would immediately come loose.
In short, it is designed to be very easy to remove.
Kong Ming'an silently admired the scene, when at a certain moment, the Dragon King's daughter raised her dark, jade-like eyes and looked directly at her.
The girl's innate aloofness, mixed with her barely concealed sense of humiliation and a hint of stubbornness that refused to completely submit, coalesced into a cold and complex gaze that was cast upon him.
Yes, it's very good, but the eyes are a little lacking; the lethality is a bit weak, not as striking as Hyotei's trash-looking gaze.
A wisp of thought, which had expanded to a terrifying degree under the immense computing power of the "Order God Kingdom," spurred a wild, random thought and even casually gave it an eight out of ten rating.
Ignoring the Dragon King's daughter's menacing glare, Kong Ming'an spoke in a calm tone:
"come on."
Gu Yue took a deep breath, as if she were undergoing some kind of internal struggle, then grabbed the hem of her skirt with one hand and stepped forward as if she were going all out.
However, as soon as she entered, she saw Kong Ming'an pick up a specially made spirit ring that contained her energy, and then ask with a serious expression:
"What is the specific ratio of your elemental energy? Why are the energies contained in these different elements slightly different? When you use soul skills, do different energy ratios produce different effects?"
A series of questions suddenly came at Gu Yue, who had already mentally prepared herself to lie face down on the lab table and surrender everything. A look of bewilderment flashed across her face.
"What ratio?" She blinked, a little confused. "No...you didn't call me here to...um, you called me here to ask this?"
"I'm not in the mood for that right now. Answer my question first."
A faint silvery light flickered in Kong Ming'an's eyes, and within that silver light, a hint of dark red was faintly visible.
Thanks to his control over the origin of the Asura God's position, he conveniently developed a method that uses the inherent cold killing intent of the god's position to suppress his chaotic emotions to some extent.
They might have wild thoughts or develop a perverse sense of humor, but it's unlikely that their limited perspective will control their overall well-being.
After all, the Dragon King's shape adjustment plan is still underway, and the progress bar cannot be moved too fast.
Gu Yue was speechless for a moment, but couldn't help glancing at the clothes she was wearing.
Shouldn't we be conducting some experiments that better match the atmosphere of this outfit?
If it's really just about answering questions, shouldn't you at least change into something more normal? Like a proper white lab coat or something. Who wears a maid outfit to discuss a problem? Especially this kind of maid outfit that looks completely out of place!
Gu Yue felt that the current situation was extremely strange. It was too odd to be discussing a problem with this guy while wearing these clothes.
A strange sense of unease rose again, but Gu Yue suppressed her thoughts and prepared to answer the other person's question.
She had seen things like element ratios in the basic "Dharma Cultivation" knowledge that Kong Ming'an had given her.
Although she initially thought these things were insignificant and less effective than relying on her intuition, she managed to memorize them all at a glance thanks to her powerful mental strength.
However, just as she recalled that knowledge and prepared to answer Kong Ming'an's question, Gu Yue paused again and fell silent once more.
"what happened?"
Seeing that the Dragon King's daughter seemed hesitant to speak, Kong Ming'an asked,
Gu Yue was silent for a few seconds, her voice carrying a barely perceptible lack of confidence:
"I do not know."
"Don't know?" Kong Ming'an frowned.
"I just randomly picked it up," Gu Yue honestly admitted, unleashing her fingertip soul skill and drawing out elemental threads in mid-air.
"It's roughly like this. You just need to release your soul power naturally by feeling, and then roughly adjust it by feeling, and it will operate on its own."
Kong Ming'an paused for a moment, then took out several more soul rings that contained different soul skills of Gu Yue, and asked again:
"What about the basic energy composition model of these soul skills? How is their stable structure established?"
Gu Yue pursed her lips and lowered her voice: "...I don't know."
The abilities she currently uses are basically those she naturally possessed since birth.
These abilities reside in her blood, and using them is as natural as breathing or drinking water.
Under such circumstances, she naturally never thought of analyzing the "basic composition model" behind it, because for her, it was simply unnecessary.
Kong Ming'an fell silent again. This time, his gaze towards Gu Yue carried a hint of the same look he had given Hyotei before.
He looked Gu Yue up and down, his tone carrying a hint of scrutiny:
"So, what exactly have you been learning during this time and in the past few years at the Sun Moon Royal Soul Master Academy?"
Gu Yue felt a little guilty under his gaze and explained, "The academy provides basic knowledge, the use and creation of soul tools, and..."
"What level is your current actual skill in crafting soul tools?" Kong Ming'an interrupted her.
"Level nine." Gu Yue's tone became slightly firmer.
"So how did you inscribe the soul guidance array diagram?"
Gu Yue opened her mouth, but hesitated to speak.
Kong Ming'an: "..."
Kong Ming'an suddenly felt a headache coming on. He rubbed his temples, trying to struggle a little more: "When you inscribed the soul guidance array diagram, you didn't just inscribe it by feeling, did you?"
Gu Yue remained silent.
Kong Ming'an fell completely silent.
At this moment, Kong Ming'an looked at the Dragon King's daughter in front of him, dressed in a maid's outfit, whose face showed no humiliation but rather more guilt, and for a moment he didn't know what to say.
What is this? Knowing the general direction and then just relying on your senses to drive straight through?
Now I understand why the academy's assessment of Miss Dragon King was "possessing innovative thinking in the creation of soul tools."
Feelings aren't about innovation; they're purely based on intuition!
Is this the Silver Dragon King's "astounding wisdom"?
He finally saw it.
With a sigh, Kong Ming'an took out a stack of textbooks.
This was a teaching material he had compiled using the spare computing power of "Ling Shu". Most of the knowledge in it was designed to facilitate his testing and help him advance his experiments.
Characters like Xue Di, Bing Di, Qiu'er, and Dong'er have all studied it, and now it's the Dragon King's daughter's turn.
"Alright, I'm going to teach you the basics again. I hope you study hard and understand."
Gu Yue blinked, her eyes clearing slightly. It seemed even stranger to be learning everything while wearing this outfit.
Chapter 207 is filled with energy
Time passed slowly, and several hours quietly went by.
In a corner of the laboratory, a soft carpet was laid out, and two figures sat on the floor.
The girl knelt before the low table, her fingertips circulating soul power as she meticulously sketched the soul guidance matrix diagram and basic soul skill construction modules, her expression focused.
Beside her, the boy rested his chin on his hand, looking slightly lazy. His eyes never left the girl's actions, and he occasionally offered some pointers, appearing inexplicably relaxed.
Kong Ming'an is very pleased now.
At first, he thought that Kogetsu would be a slow learner like Hyotei, but he soon discovered that this was not the case.
Gu Yue wasn't incapable of learning; rather, she relied too heavily on her innate, almost godlike intuition.
This is like some exceptionally gifted individuals who habitually solve problems by saying, "My super brain tells me to just use superpowers!"
Gu Yue can rely purely on intuition, skipping all deduction and understanding processes. She doesn't know specific knowledge, but she can achieve her goals through the method of "I feel this way."
Fortunately, Gu Yue wasn't truly incapable of learning; she had simply developed this mental inertia over a long period.
