Chapter 326: Final Procedure

Sadly, Lyca fell asleep on her way home. When she woke up, the night already passed. She eyed the clock and frowned. It was already seven in the morning, and Shen Qui was no longer sleeping next to her. How come she fell asleep for so long? She got up and took her bath before she went to her lab to take care of some things.

Of course, the thought of learning how to code completely left her mind.

Lyca was too focused on creating the antidote. However, she would need Shen Qui's help for the final step. After a few days of going to her lab, it was finally time for the final procedure.

"I know it sounded crazy, but I have been testing it," Lyca said. "But I can't do it alone."

Shen Qui stared at his wife's hesitant expression. "Do you need my blood? He asked.

"What? No!"

"Then do you need my skin?"

"Of course not!"

"Then why are you acting like that?" He couldn't help but ask. Was it something embarrassing? Was it his sperm? But that would be too illogical? "What do you need from me?"

"I know it sounds crazy." Lyca bit her lips, unsure of how to tell him what she really wanted. "But this is the only way."

He pursed his lips. Talking like this was not Lyca's style. For some reason, seeing her acting like this is making him nervous. What if she needed him to do something crazy? When it comes to this wife, if his crazy is nothing but an understatement. This meant that whatever it was that she wanted him to do is actually more than crazy!

"Take off your clothes."

"Huh?"

"I want you to take off your clothes."

Shen Qui gulped. Are they doing it in the lab? This is a very private place, and he was confident no one would walk in on them as no one knows the password aside from him, Lai Xu, and Lyca. Even Lyca's parents didn't know the access code! "It's the middle of the day." That's right. It was still noon. He was about to ask her to eat when she suddenly told him that she was in the last stages of making the antidote. She dragged him inside the lab for this last step that she wanted him to do. "Are you going to throw the antidote at me?"

"No. Just take off your clothes," Lyca said as she started taking off her own clothing. Seeing her serious expression, Shen Qui didn't ask anymore. He started taking off his clothes and waited for her next instructions.

"Now come here," Lyca said. She gestured towards the table with a lot of beakers and flask. Each of them has different colored liquids.

"What are we doing?" He asked.

"Hold my hand and close your eyes."

"Are we praying?" What a silly question. Shen Qui chuckled at his own words.

"Remember the thing that I showed you during the new year?"

"The electricity?"

She nodded. "Did you try it?"

"No." Even Lyca said it was a minor trick. "You said it was useless."

'Well… it was enough to stimulate the properties of this liquid." It was enough to stimulate poisons, making it more potent. This was something she discovered while experimenting with the herbs. Lyca figured that sense the herb also excited in the previous world, then there is a possibility that it would react to that trick. So, she tried it. And it immediately showed some changes.

Sadly, it was too little. The small spark of electricity from her alone wasn't enough to stimulate it. All she needed was a bit more force enough to shock the liquid. Of course, Lyca considered using electricity. Sadly, the liquid didn't react when she used electricity from this world.

She had been experimenting and even adjusted the volts, but it didn't work. Because of this, she came up with the idea to ask for Shen Qui's help.

"So… I just need to close my eyes?" Shen Qui asked. Since Lyca said that this would work, then he had no more questions. She absolutely trusts this woman.

Shen Qui laughed at his own thoughts. She realized that if Lyca wanted to sell him, he would agree and even help her count the money.

"Hmm," she nodded. In her mind, our body is a conductor and Shen Qui's internal energy was already cultivated. So, it should be that easy, right?

She was wrong.

This world didn't have magic or Qi. How could it be that easy? After her first try, Lyca realized that this was harder than it looks like. For a few minutes, Lyca tried to do it again, but she still failed. "Can you think of extending your blood?" She asked. She wasn't really a teacher, and she had no idea how to teach him this trick. "Just like… you know, think of extending your blood from your hand."

"Hmmm." Shen Qui nodded without saying anything.

This time, Lyca felt it. The current was stronger, dense. She could feel it from Shen Qui's hand. This made her smile. This time, Lyca slowly put her left hand on a beaker while her other hand held both of Shen Qui's hands. After a few seconds, Lyca finally opened her eyes.

She let out a gasp. In front of her was a liquid… a sparkling liquid. The liquid was black and sticky. With the small sparkling particles, it actually looked like a small universe. After a few more seconds, Lyca took her hand out of the beaker and told Shen Qui to open his eyes.

"Put your clothes on," she said as she stared at the liquid, ignoring the fact that she was naked too.

Seeing her eyes glitter with excitement, Shen Qui shook his head and grabbed a lab coat. Then he silently put it around Lyca. "Success?" he asked while putting his clothes back on.

"Should be," Lyca met his eyes. "With these… I should be able to heal grandfather."
