"Don't worry."
Ji Zhixing smiled. "My compatibility with the Willow Tree Gene is very high. I heard its voice as soon as I fused with it. Basic self-healing ability is one of the abilities I planned to develop."
"That's good, that's good!"
Xiao Mingyue breathed a sigh of relief.
Ji Zhixing smiled and took out his phone to check the time. He realized he had already spent several hours here. It was probably dark outside by now.
He put his phone away and looked up at Xiao Mingyue. "I'll spare you the words of thanks. It's getting late, so I'll head back. We'll enter the secret realm together tomorrow."
"Sure." Xiao Mingyue nodded. "Let's exchange contact details so we can reach each other if anything comes up."
They exchanged contact details.
Ji Zhixing saved her contact as "Xiao Mingyue" and put his phone away.
"I'm off. See you tomorrow."
"See you tomorrow."
Xiao Mingyue walked him to the villa's entrance. Ji Zhixing turned and waved, then headed toward his dormitory area.
"He heard the gene's voice right after fusing with the Willow Tree Gene?"
"Could the Three-Inch Stone Monkey Gene he fused with before have been the same?
"And he has dual gene apertures."
"I feel like I've run into a monster."
Standing at the villa's entrance, Xiao Mingyue watched him walk away and shook her head.
Ji Zhixing walked through campus as the streetlights came on one after another, casting dim yellow pools of light over the road.
The night breeze brought waves of cool air, drying the sweat on his body.
I really owe her a huge favor this time.
He thought silently to himself.
The use of the gravity chamber, and especially that potion.
I need to earn money and improve my strength as soon as possible.
