Chapter 2217: The Origin of Chubby Chiu

Before long, Su Yunling spoke, turning his head to Gu Zhiqi and said, "Once this door is opened, it will make a loud noise, inevitably alarming the people inside."

Gu Zhiqi fell into thought after hearing this.

Su Yunling spoke again, "I wonder if there’s a patrol team. If there is, we could sneak in when the patrol team comes out."

Just as Su Yunling finished speaking, a voice echoed in Gu Zhiqi’s mind, "There is, I’ve hacked into their network system. A patrol team passes every twenty minutes. Right now, there’s three minutes until the next one comes out."

Hearing this, Gu Zhiqi turned his head to Su Yunling and repeated Chubby Chiu’s words.

After listening, a deeper color flashed through Su Yunling’s eyes. He looked at Gu Zhiqi and asked, "How do you know this?"

Gu Zhiqi: "..."

Can I say this?

Gu Zhiqi pondered for two seconds and eventually said to Su Yunling, "I have a spirit pet, it’s in my Sea of Consciousness. It’s the one that used to crawl onto your button."

Su Yunling was slightly surprised upon hearing this, "Spirit pet?"

Gu Zhiqi nodded.

In fact, long ago, Chubby Chiu was just an emotionless, lifeless Intelligence Brain, without even a name.

Before Su Yunling’s sacrifice, he gave his original spirit pet to Gu Zhiqi, which is Chubby Chiu.

Not only that, her Chaos Green Vine was also given to her by Su Yunling, and Bai Ting and Ye You are manifestations of Chaos Green Vine, so they know Su Yunling.

The Chaos Green Vine was raised by Su Yunling in the Mystic Realm without a contract, and after giving it to Gu Zhiqi, it contracted with her.

Chubby Chiu is different, she contracted with Su Yunling.

If Su Yunling sacrificed himself, Chubby Chiu might die as well, so Su Yunling thought of a way, which was to leave a remnant soul of Chubby Chiu in its body, detaching most of its soul body from the flesh, this way, it wouldn’t have to follow Su Yunling into the afterlife.

Later, Su Yunling gave Chubby Chiu to Gu Zhiqi, he said Chubby Chiu could still cultivate and take form, and in the future, Chubby Chiu would replace him in protecting her.

Afterwards, once contracted with her, Chubby Chiu inexplicably merged with her Intelligence Brain.

Previously, with her memory sealed, Gu Zhiqi was somewhat puzzled why Chubby Chiu was always hovering around Su Yunling.

After all, the destinies of Fu Xiyan and Gu Xiyue were also significant, both were attractive as well, but Chubby Chiu fixated only on Su Yunling.

Thinking about it now, it’s likely because of some attraction that Su Yunling, the original owner, held for Chubby Chiu.

Gu Zhiqi nodded to Su Yunling after hearing this, then said, "That Fei Jiu earlier, it’s my spirit pet."

Su Yunling: "...Your spirit pet...is male?"

Su Yunling’s attention focused on the gender.

Gu Zhiqi: "...To be precise, it’s genderless."

Chubby Chiu’s true form is a Divine beast called Kun in the Mystic Realm, the age calculation of Divine beasts is different from humans, they are considered adult only upon transformation.

During transformation, they choose a gender based on their beloved; of course, if there isn’t one, they can choose any gender freely.

Listening to this, Su Yunling’s expression improved slightly, "But last time, it..."

Gu Zhiqi: "That was a temporarily chosen body."

Su Yunling nodded after hearing this, then softly said, "So it’s true, as Xiyan said, it is a hermaphrodite."

Chubby Chiu: !

I am not a hermaphrodite!

Gu Zhiqi turned his head and glanced at Su Yunling, "It can hear what you’re saying."

Su Yunling: "..."

Su Yunling cleared his throat lightly, then sincerely apologized, "Sorry, just joking."

Since it’s Gu Zhiqi’s pet, one should love it and care for it.
