The time Chi Zhao took over the body happened to be the day Noah planned to drug the protagonist. Today, the speaker of the senate had invited fellow congressmen and chairpersons to attend a private gathering. Receiving an invitation from such a person, no one would reject it so even the protagonist who didn't like to participate in such events came.
Noah had used a lot of money to get himself an opportunity to pretend to be a waiter at this private gathering. While everyone was busy serving the big shots outside, only he was sneaking around in the kitchen.
This villa had a total of five floors. The kitchen was on the lowest floor, so Chi Zhao had planned it all out. After he escapes out that window, it didn't matter where he went, as long as he stayed away from that psycho brother and protagonist who was probably also equally as psycho.
[Hey, I won't make you give birth! Let me finish talking first!]
Seeing Chi Zhao's actions pause for a moment, the system quickly struck while the iron was hot.
[The fertility rate in this world is quite low and because the fertility rate is now, the people have thought of a lot of methods to increase the fertility rate. Natural conception is no longer the mainstream method now. There is another method where the DNA is taken from two different people and synthesised to form a new life. The entire process is done in a nursery box, you don't have to do anything.]
Chi Zhao moved his leg back and sat straddled on the window. He raised his chin, "Interesting. Keep going."
[Of course, for ethical reasons DNA cannot be randomly matched just because you sent it over. In order to prevent unauthorised synthesis, there is a rule stipulated that there must be two DNA sources and both owners of the DNA must sign a form to authorise its use. You will definitely not be able to get authorisation from the psycho brother, so I'll direct you down a good path. Take the original owner's money and go to a black market!]
Chi Zhao: "...Is this something a human can come up with?"
As soon as he finished asking this, Chi Zhao answered his own question himself, "Oh right, you are originally not human."
System: "...."
"Even if you aren't human, you can't come up with such a crazy idea like that! What do you mean direct me down to a good path? Forget it, I'm not going to ask about anything else anymore. I just don't understand why I must create a descendent with such a disgusting person. Even if I didn't give birth to the child and it was synthesised, it's still the same problem!"
The system couldn't talk back. It struggled for a long time and finally replied in a very low voice.
[Because…..because this is the rule...]
This reason was simply not enough to convince Chi Zhao. He raised his eyebrows and waited. The system added aggrievedly:
[Although the brother is a little disgusting, the child didn't do anything wrong. He was originally a small life that needs to be born. If you don't want him, he wouldn't even have the chance to come into this world.]
Chi Zhao frowned slightly.
In the original plot, the child had always been somewhat ignorant. He didn't know what kind of person his two fathers were and after only being around the protagonist for a little more than a year, the family was destroyed, and he was sent to a distant planet by the protagonist. At that time, he was less than seven-years-old.
He probably knew that he had lost his home, so the child didn't cry for too long and quickly adapted to life on the remote planet. Gradually, he forgot about his past, became a ship repairer on that planet and had a happy family that filled for everything that was missing in his childhood.
If Chi Zhao left like this, that child would not have been born and the fates of many people would also change accordingly. Chi Zhao suddenly remembered that the information he had received also mentioned that when this child grew up and was working at the dock, he saved a girl who had fallen into the water. The girl who had almost died survived because of him and later, that girl's older sister became his wife.
Thinking of this, Chi Zhao felt that the system was right. The child is indeed innocent. Chi Zhao also didn't want to drastically change the plot line anymore. The last time he did that, many people had died because of it. Although those people have always been living with their lives hanging from the edge of the cliff and would eventually die one day, it was still…..
After all, he had taken away their chances for survival.
"Then what should I do?"
After talking for a long time, the system had thought that Chi Zhao's decision wouldn't be shaken. Unexpectedly, he agreed and the system was extremely elated.
[It's very easy! I'll show you the way. You go to that psycho brother's room, spray with a spring night potion and then open his mouth and take some of his saliva.]

It sounded very simple but after his experience in his previous life, Chi Zhao understood very well the strength of that potion. Even masters of martial arts have no resistance to it and there was no need to spray it on the skin. As long as it was sprayed, it would work even if it was sprayed on clothes or shoes.
After pondering for a while, Chi Zhao nodded, "And then?"
[Then we can run away and find a black market to make the child. After that, you can go on vacation!]
Chi Zhao's expression turned cold, "You even have the nerve to call it a vacation?!"
System: "....QAQ"
What was this called? Despite clearly knowing that the other person was a big baddie, he still had to personally get his genes to create a child and then return with the child six years later to confront the protagonist. Even if the protagonist falls for him, he would never like him back because he no longer had the face to do that anymore….
Chi Zhao sighed deeply inside. Suddenly, his movements stopped and he asked the system, "Is this your new plan? You don't plan on dealing with the plot or the protagonist and have turned around to deal with me instead?!"
It was silent for a second.
[What are you talking about, dear? This one here doesn't understand. In view of your question, I suggest that you have you brain checked.]
Chi Zhao: "....."
Chi Zhao laughed out in anger. He wanted to say something, but he suddenly heard a faint call nearby. Chi Zhao was surprised. He thought someone was there but when he followed the sound and looked over, he noticed that beside his foot was something no more than ten centimetres in height...a red chick?
Chi Zhao squatted down. He stared at it for a long time unable to figure out what kind of chick it was. The latter noticed his 'loving gaze' and its black beady eyes slowly turned to Chi Zhao's face.
After just one glance, this thing of unknown species suddenly stood up. Its two small yellow claws scratched at the floor, seemingly very anxious. After scratching for a while, it suddenly raised its head and flapped its wings, tweeting nonstop.
Chi Zhao silently looked down at this chick. He didn't say anything but from the look on his face, he didn't seem to like it very much.
Guides have their own spiritual bodies. Whether they are a guide, or a sentinel was determined by the individual's body, but the appearance of a spiritual body was determined by the host's spiritual power. And so, although Chi Zhao was still a guide, his spiritual body had changed from the original owner's white rabbit to a red chick.
The system could tell in one glance that this chick was a spiritual body. Because Chi Zhao had only just arrived, its body was still very small, but it would probably grow more in the future.
The system tried to decipher its language but after listening to it for a long time, the code was still a mess. It had no choice but to ask Chi Zhao.
[What did it say?]
Chi Zhao's expression turned darker and darker. Sensing that Chi Zhao was starting to get angry, the little red chick finally closed its little yellow beak and turned around in anger, facing its round and plump butt at Chi Zhao.
The system was even more confused.
[What did it say? That is your spiritual body. It is said that the spiritual body can directly communicate with their master. What did it say to you? Let me know too?]
Grinding his teeth, Chi Zhao only repeated the little red chick's words once, "He said I'm ugly, a sissy, a mixed trash. Cannot accept."
System: "...…."
Amazing.
Even it didn't dare say that to Chi Zhao. This chick is too courageous.
There were a bunch of longer feathers on the chick's butt. If you looked closely, you would see that there were a few faint gold ones among it. The system noticed it and was surprised. Before it could report its findings, Chi Zhao had already picked the chick up by the feathers on its plump butt.
The chick cried out in alarm and struggled as if it was about to be cooked.
"You still dare say that to me?! A chicken that doesn't look like a chicken, a duck that doesn't look like a duck. Your whole body is red like you were roasted in a blacksmith's stove for several days. I have only heard of horses and donkeys giving birth to mules but what can a chicken and an iron nugget make?"
"Tweet!——-"
The system hurriedly asked.
[What did it say?]
Chi Zhao expressionlessly watched the chick struggle, "It said to perish together. Little one, you think you..."
Before he could finish, the little chick choked and coughed several times. After its last cough was done, a faint wisp of smoke came out of its little yellow beak.
Chi Zhao: "....."
System: "...…."
Chick: "...…."
A spiritual body cannot hurt their master. What the chick said just now were just empty threats. At this moment, it felt ashamed and no longer struggled. It just loosely hung upside down in Chi Zhao's hands, looking very despaired.
On the contrary, Chi Zhao felt a little bad. But before he could say some words of comfort, with a whoosh, the chick disappeared. It had angrily returned to the spiritual mind to lick its own wounds.
[Look at its ability to emit smoke….Seems to be a phoenix and not a deified one, the one that can breathe fire and fly. By the way, aren't you an Asian? This unique creature should be from your culture. It's no wonder it thinks that you are ugly. You currently have Noah's face and don't have any resemblance to the people it's familiar with.]
After hearing the system's explanation, Chi Zhao felt a little better. He stood up and patted his numb legs, "We will deal with it later. Let's get started."
Following the system's guidance, he reached a room on the fourth floor and stopped outside the closed door. Chi Zhao felt a little uneasy inside, "Are you sure this is the place?"
[That's right, it's here.]
Chi Zhao frowned, "I think….." It didn't feel right.
The system interrupted before he could voice his thoughts.
[Don't think anymore. If you keep delaying it, the person inside might come out. You still haven't injected yourself with the heat-stimulating drug yet. If his brother sees you here, he wouldn't think that you're attractive and just think that you're strange.]

It was really strange for a lowly waiter to sneak up to the fourth floor where the guests rested. Chi Zhao could only swallow back his words and push open the door.
He carefully entered and quickly closed the door behind him. He had the spray in his hands. Not wanting to delay it any longer, he turned around to spray but before he could do that, he froze in place.
A pair of dark green eyes that belonged to a beast appeared about ten centimetres in front of his face. Those eyes belonged to a wolf that was completely black and taller than him. The other party stared at him unwaveringly. Being looked at by such a large beast, Chi Zhao's scalp went numb and the hand holding the spray couldn't move.
But at this moment, the system was still shouting.
[What happened? Why can't I see anything?? Why is it so dark? Chi Zhao, turn on the light!]
The hell, there is such a big wolf here and you can't see it?!
Chi Zhao's heart was about to fly out of his throat. That oppressive feeling made Chi Zhao instinctively hold his breath. The black wolf opposite him however didn't have any intentions to attack him. It instead tilted its head and gently stretched its neck forwards, seemingly trying to find something it could smell on him. Chi Zhao was confused. He immediately backed into the door to avoid the wolf and only then did he realise that there was a faint dark mist lingering around the black wolf. It was just that the mist was too faint so Chi Zhao had to look very carefully to see it.
In the faint black mist, a tall and handsome man slowly stood up. There were deep creases between his brows, and he looked dignified and cold. He walked very slowly, as if he was enduring some pain and the black wolf suddenly disappeared. Chi Zhao only then realised that it was a spiritual body, not a real animal.
Fortunately, Chi Zhao didn't forget his mission. He quickly raised the spray and pressed it down hard.
Spray!
No reaction.
Spray again!
Still no reaction.
Spray, spray, spray!——
Almost half the bottle was gone but the person opposite him still showed no reaction. Chi Zhao blinked a few times and remembered something the system had told him a long, long time ago.
—–Our spring night potion is very effective, but it has a bug—it only works on the general characters in the world. If you encounter important characters—that is, the protagonist— it will be useless, because the protagonist is completely immune to all external forces...
"A guide….?"
Or a masterless guide who could see his spiritual body.
A low and hoarse voice sounded in the room. As these words were spoken, the black mist in the room grew thicker. They entangled around Chi Zhao's body and seemed to be probing him out and also seemed to be trying to win his favour.
Chi Zhao's heart grew cold. The system was still calling out.
[Huh? Huh huh? Host, why can't I even see you?? Host? Host??]
