TSBSPAAM Chapter 38

Chapter 38: Exclusive Training Room

 

The evening breeze was gentle, and the stars twinkled.

After dinner, Qin Luzhi took Shen Bumian to his private training room.

As the second son of Marshal Qin, Qin Luzhi had applied for a private training room, located in the training building not far behind the dormitory building.

Shen Bumian was even more surprised after entering. The training room was very large and fully equipped.

It had all the instruments used in class, and the wall material was of superior quality with excellent sound insulation, so there was no need to worry about disturbing others.

“Can all these instruments be used freely?”

Shen Bumian felt like someone who had never seen the world.

Qin Luzhi glanced around. “Yes.”

This training room was originally an abandoned storage room that few people visited. So, Qin Luzhi told Qin Zui about his idea.

The Qin family then funded the conversion of this place into a single-person training room for Qin Luzhi. The equipment here was also purchased by the Qin family at the original price and delivered.

So it could be said that this was a training room bought by the Qin family, and the ownership belonged to Qin Luzhi.

Seeing the look of surprise and envy in Shen Bumian’s eyes, Qin Luzhi blurted out, “You can come here to train whenever you want in the future.”

Shen Bumian’s eyes widened. His already large eyes were now even rounder. “Can I really?”

“Yes.”

Qin Luzhi didn’t waste words. He directly opened a small compartment and gestured for Shen Bumian to enter with him.

Shen Bumian immediately saw the device that Gu Yixi had brought to the last pheromone training class, and it was even more precise.

Qin Luzhi casually picked it up and placed it on a small table, explaining to Shen Bumian, “This is a testing instrument. Didn’t you say you wanted to practice controlling your pheromones tonight? This will work.”

Shen Bumian was full now and had almost recovered. He looked at the instrument, eager to try.

He turned on the instrument’s switch and closed his eyes, recalling Gu Yixi’s words from last time in his mind.

As if he were there, Shen Bumian found himself on a starship.

Before him was Shen Ran, held hostage. Shen Ran’s eyes were closed, seemingly unconscious.

Beside her, a person was continuously releasing pheromones to oppress Shen Ran, who was frowning and seemed to be struggling in pain.

Shen Bumian’s heart tightened, his breathing quickening slightly. He stared intently at Shen Ran’s face.

He removed his inhibitor ring and slowly released his pheromones, attempting to overpower that figure and rescue Shen Ran.

A beeping sound broke the quiet air, but Shen Bumian, with his eyes closed, didn’t hear it.

The device in front of him slowly lit up with ten red lights, which flickered as Shen Bumian continued to release his pheromones.

“Shen Bumian—Shen Bumian—”

Shen Bumian felt as if he were in chaos. In a daze, he heard someone calling his name, like some kind of summons.

He slowly opened his eyes and saw Qin Luzhi’s slightly reddened eyes.

His gaze slowly moved down, and he saw the instrument with its glowing red lights. I succeeded, he thought, and at full ten-tenths power.

“What happened to me?”

Only then did Shen Bumian realize he was sitting on the floor, his upper body leaning against Qin Luzhi’s chest, while Qin Luzhi had a worried expression and a rigid posture.

Qin Luzhi’s voice was a bit hoarse. “You were a little trapped in a nightmare.”

Shen Bumian understood. It was his first time successfully releasing suppressive-type pheromones, and he hadn’t controlled the intensity well, nearly getting himself caught up in it.

In the air, Pine Smoke Mint enveloped Withered Wood Rose, and Shen Bumian’s breathing gradually stabilized.

He was still leaning against Qin Luzhi’s chest, and Qin Luzhi’s body had remained tense and had not relaxed.

What Qin Luzhi didn’t say was that the moment Shen Bumian closed his eyes and released his pheromones, he had fled in a panic.

The rich scent of roses assailed his nostrils. Qin Luzhi was completely unprepared. His own pheromones almost overflowed, and he quickly ran out of the cubicle and closed the door.

He pressed his head against the wall, taking deep breaths. His glands were swelling, and he was about to lose control of his pheromones.

His eyes red, he went to the cabinet, took out an inhibitor, and injected himself. Only after a good while did he feel a little better.

Qin Luzhi closed his eyes, thinking that his dozen or so years of training had been for nothing.

The self-control he had been proud of since childhood had been frequently failing him recently. He thought that starting tomorrow, he too would have to undergo additional training.

Then he went back to check on Shen Bumian’s condition, only to find him frowning and covered in a cold sweat.

Having taken the inhibitor, Qin Luzhi didn’t hesitate to open the cubicle door again, walk over to wake Shen Bumian up, and simultaneously release his own pheromones to soothe Shen Bumian’s emotions.

After all, he was someone who had undergone a year of systematic study. Qin Luzhi had excellent control, keeping the pheromone concentration at just the right level.

Shen Bumian didn’t feel uncomfortable; on the contrary, he felt pleasant in both body and mind.

The two streams of pheromones intertwined, and Shen Bumian felt something flowing through his spiritual network. He subconsciously relaxed his body and mind.

Shen Bumian recovered very quickly this time, which he himself found incredible.

Perhaps Gu Yixi’s experiment was really the solution. His and Qin Luzhi’s spiritual powers were likely compatible, repairing his innate deficiency.

Qin Luzhi had this feeling too. He felt that releasing his pheromones this time hadn’t consumed him in the slightest.

Instead, his body and mind felt refreshed. It was as if his spiritual network had opened up, a feeling of his spiritual power flowing quietly among the stars.

His mind was very clear, without his usual migraines.

The two looked at each other, a newfound sense of inquiry and interest in Gu Yixi’s experiment growing between them.

“Qin Luzhi, do you want to demonstrate for me?”

Shen Bumian’s thoughts were simple. He just felt that he had just recovered and couldn’t rush into releasing pheromones one after another.

It just so happened that Qin Luzhi was here, so he could teach him.

Qin Luzhi nodded, reset the device, and moved a little further away from Shen Bumian.

The scent of Fir Agave began to seize the air in the small room, inch by inch. The red lights lit up one by one. He intentionally made the scent of agave bypass Shen Bumian.

But Shen Bumian still smelled it, and the scent of rose almost couldn’t stop itself from responding to the agave.

Even though Qin Luzhi had no intention of attacking him, the scent in the air was too potent.

Shen Bumian’s legs still felt a little weak. He leaned against the wall, watching Qin Luzhi at the center of the pheromone-filled room.

At this moment, he had to admit that as the empire’s strongest Alpha, Qin Luzhi truly had the makings of a powerhouse.

Shen Bumian, who had always been insensitive to pheromones, found his breathing quickening. His glands ached a little. It wasn’t a very strong pressure, just a persistent, subtle pain.

The advantage of an Alpha was on full display at this moment. This was an innate genetic difference that not even Shen Bumian could completely resist.

“Qin Luzhi, that’s enough… I feel a little unwell.”

Feeling the weakness in his limbs, Shen Bumian couldn’t help but speak out. The powerful pheromones were getting stronger and stronger.

He felt a strange sensation rising within him, different from the stinging pain caused by suppression. This was more like an irresistible urge for Shen Bumian to submit to the owner of the pheromones.

Shen Bumian subconsciously felt that the situation was not good. This psychological state irritated him. Even if this person was Qin Luzhi, he still felt a bit of resistance.

Qin Luzhi’s eyes snapped open as he reined in his pheromones and strode towards Shen Bumian.

The aggressive aura on his body had not yet completely dissipated, and Shen Bumian instinctively took a step back.

Qin Luzhi noticed. His heart tightened, feeling a little hurt.

Qin Luzhi’s lips were tightly pursed, and the fingers of the hand hanging by his side couldn’t help but curl. He slowly retreated a few steps. “I’m sorry.”

Shen Bumian shook his head. It wasn’t Qin Luzhi’s fault; he was the one who had asked him to demonstrate.

And Qin Luzhi was very serious about these things. He was focused on training, and this time he had treated the demonstration as training and had momentarily lost control.

However, Shen Bumian admired Qin Luzhi very much. Qin Luzhi already had complete control over his pheromones.

Moreover, this was only a portion of his suppressive power, not the full ten-tenths released. One could only imagine how strong Qin Luzhi was.

“Qin Luzhi.”

Shen Bumian’s muffled voice echoed in the air.

Qin Luzhi’s fingers twitched. He just looked at Shen Bumian like that, silently waiting for what he would say next.

Shen Bumian pressed his palms back against the wall, his entire body weight leaning on it. He tilted his head up slightly to look at Qin Luzhi, who was a few steps away. “Can you come over and help me up?”

Qin Luzhi hesitated for a moment, waiting another ten seconds or so to make sure the pheromones on his body had mostly dissipated before walking over to support Shen Bumian.

As soon as he got close, a warm, soft body fell into his arms. Shen Bumian shifted his center of gravity onto Qin Luzhi.

Qin Luzhi’s back subconsciously straightened. The palm of his hand touched the omega’s burning-hot arm.

He felt as if he himself was about to be scalded. Qin Luzhi’s hands were very cold, just like him. At this moment, touching Shen Bumian’s warm skin, everything felt scorching hot.

Shen Bumian nonchalantly used Qin Luzhi’s strength to walk to a soft chair outside and leaned against it without much regard for his image.

He would never admit that he had asked Qin Luzhi for help just now because his legs had gone so weak he couldn’t walk. It was too embarrassing.
