My Synthesizer Has Talent

Chapter 358: Chapter 356: Conversation

The fragrance of the tea filled the entire laboratory.

A moment later,

the doors to the laboratory opened.

Then, all the high-temperature rays inside the laboratory shut down.

"Just as I expected from an ancestor. Causing me a huge problem the moment you wake up."

The woman’s language was the common tongue of the Continent.

And her use of the word "ancestor"...

...made Su Qing think of the Cultivators who had left the Spirit Realm.

’She must be one of their descendants.’

"Hello."

"Care for a cup?" Su Qing produced another teacup with a flip of his hand.

The doctor glanced over curiously. "A spatially folded item."

"You could think of it that way, yes," Su Qing said with a nod, pouring her a cup of tea.

It was the most common type of Enlightenment Tea.

Inside Su Qing’s Micro Acupoint Great World, there were still quite a few Enlightenment Tea trees.

There wasn’t much left in the Spirit Realm.

The Greed Realm probably hadn’t consumed the Spirit Realm. According to Xiaoqing’s Inferences, the odds of the Greed Realm leaving the Spirit Realm alone were only fifty percent.

When Su Qing fled, the will of the Spirit Realm was still present.

"Ancestor, you’ve been alive in my lab for so long, and I even had my assistant take care of you."

"Shouldn’t you compensate me for my losses?" the doctor said, unceremoniously picking up the teacup and taking a drink.

She had no idea what to expect.

One sip, and she was floored.

"What is this stuff?"

"Don’t tell me it’s some kind of drug. I feel like I’m having so many ideas right now!"

The doctor looked at the ancestor before her. ’Just as I thought,’ she mused. ’You can’t trust an ancestor’s words—or their food.’

"Relax. I just want to talk. I don’t like to resolve matters through crude methods."

The doctor was suddenly reminded of some of the other ancestors.

After receiving treatment, some of them would suddenly inflict soul damage of over eighty percent on the medical staff.

Some researchers were also affected.

It was rare, but terrifying when it happened.

These ancestors possessed power on par with the Dao Path.

And they were exceptionally domineering.

However, those ancestors had all been eliminated.

Because such ancestors were not permitted within the Jianmu Omniscience Institute.

Besides, there weren’t many powerful ancestors.

If it were an ancestor on the level of the one who fought the Greed Realm, they might have been able to take on the Jianmu Omniscience Institute.

"So, what do you want to talk about?" the doctor asked.

"First, let me introduce myself. My name is Su Qing, and I come from a destroyed Spirit Realm."

"I know, Ancestor." The doctor nodded. She was already roughly aware of these things.

"As for my name, just call me Zhi Wen. I don’t want to use my former name," the doctor said, introducing herself.

"Mm."

"Have you found a woman here with fiery red hair and a flame marking between her eyebrows? Or a woman with silver hair...?"

Su Qing described his friends and subordinates from Qingsu Island one by one.

"The people you’re describing..."

"It seems only one of them survived. The woman with fiery red hair. She left a particularly deep impression on me."

"Because she brought a seed out in her hand. But her heart and soul had already been mostly devoured by the Greed Realm’s insect swarm."

"We could only find a family to arrange her reincarnation."

"By now, that little girl should be around seven years old."

"I understand. I want to see her."

"And everyone else I just mentioned," Su Qing sighed.

"What you did to me while I was sleeping... I have no intention of holding it against you."

"However, I can give you a strand of my hair for your research."

"Weren’t you very interested in studying my hair?" Su Qing snapped off a strand of his own hair and gave it to her.

Dr. Zhi Wen froze, taking the strand of hair in her hand.

’Unbelievable. I used all my strength and couldn’t even pull out a single strand, yet this ancestor just snapped one off with no effort at all.’

"You’re my private property now!"

"You have a debt to repay."

"Even though you know I poked and prodded you while you were asleep, a debt must be repaid!"

Zhi Wen said with a serious expression.

"No problem," Su Qing nodded.

An inexplicable power swept over Zhi Wen, and her entire body tensed up.

She stared at him, stunned.

’Just as I thought! Some ancestors just love to pry into us with their Soul Power!’

’My Dao Path Power can’t block it at all.’

"Your physical body is so frail, yet an imprint maintains your life force."

"But you have no Spirit Root whatsoever."

Su Qing’s gaze was placid. In his completely unreadable eyes, Zhi Wen couldn’t discern any of his thoughts.

"As for the debt, do you want a Technique to strengthen your physical body, or would you prefer external items to empower yourself?"

"A Technique?"

"You mean one of those so-called immortal cultivation methods left behind in the Jianmu Omniscience Institute by other ancestors?" Zhi Wen asked, a look of disdain on her face.

Initially, the Jianmu Omniscience Institute had wanted to study these techniques.

But they eventually discovered that they required a particularly precious substance.

Something well-known throughout the Jianmu Omniscience Institute.

Spiritual Energy.

Only a few institutes could use a bit of Spiritual Energy for Cultivation.

"You don’t want it?"

Though puzzled, Su Qing still gave her the choice.

’Cultivation Techniques are so powerful, yet she doesn’t want one? Is she relying on an internal imprint, like the Dao Path imprint I have now?’

’How ridiculous.’

For a being like those from the Greed Realm, an imprint was a bonus, but definitely not the main thing.

Take Su Qing, for example. Even without an imprint, he was still a Ninth Realm Immortal.

Su Qing fell silent.

In truth, he had been making mistakes all along.

Otherwise, it would have been impossible for such a huge commotion to occur.

Su Qing was actually reflecting on why the things he encountered were always so difficult.

And also, when the Demon Realm and the Spirit Realm were on the verge of collapse, who was it that interfered with his attempt to save Qingsu Island?

And what on earth was ’it’ trying to do!

Su Qing had no idea why.

But Su Qing knew he had probably been too conspicuous.

And it seemed that most of what happened was, at times, his own doing.

...

Seeing the ancestor fall silent beside her, his eyes looking exceptionally composed, Zhi Wen thought about how the living ancestors all seemed to be very old.

Either hundreds or thousands of years old.

That wasn’t the key point. The key was that they had such long lifespans and had actually lived that long without any accidents.

That was the most remarkable thing.

Even within the Jianmu Omniscience Institute.

The average lifespan was around 1,500 years.

But that didn’t mean most of its personnel could live to be 1,500.

They could die because of a single accident.

And then, they could only reincarnate.

"So, how exactly are you going to compensate me for my losses?" Zhi Wen asked sternly.

Su Qing smiled faintly. "Then I’ll work for you."

"I won’t be giving you a Cultivation Technique."

Su Qing sighed.

He didn’t want to take out his synthesized items anymore.

It would only cause things to happen that he didn’t want to face.

"Work for me? What can you do to help me?"

"Hilarious." When it came to her own matters, pride practically overflowed from Zhi Wen’s face.

"The question is, how much do I owe you?"

"Also, I wish to remain here in the Jianmu Omniscience Institute."

"So, you’ll need to help me with an identity issue."

"Identity issue? You already have one. An ancestor from the old lands."

"Among all you ancestors, it seems your medical skills are quite remarkable."

"But my Jianmu Omniscience Institute is also highly advanced in matters of healing. We don’t need your help at all."

Su Qing fell silent once again.

’I really want to just throw a Spirit Fruit that extends life by fifty years at her.’

’Even someone like her worries about her lifespan.’

Su Qing wasn’t worried at all that she would refuse.

Then he could just dust himself off and leave.

But Su Qing needed to understand this world.

The Jianmu Omniscience Institute would be an excellent place to learn about the Star Sea World.

"You owe me a lot of All-Knowing Coins in total. For these past eight years, let’s say it adds up to at least ten million All-Knowing Coins."

"Mm." Su Qing nodded, saying calmly, "I’ll keep that in mind."
