Chapter 196: Chapter 141: When the Holy Spring Runs Dry (Two Chapters)

"Xiao Bai, stop."

With just one sentence from Qin Shou, Leng Wanbai immediately retracted the Bone Claws and obediently flew back to Qin Shou’s side.

Hu Yiyi glanced at the two of them, looking displeased.

"Leng Wanbai, you’re really something. That act you pulled earlier was quite convincing."

Qin Shou waved his hand to signal Leng Wanbai to return to the hotel first.

Leng Wanbai nodded, dove downward, and disappeared from their sight.

Qin Shou then turned to Hu Yiyi and sighed suddenly.

"Hu, Xiao Bai’s mental state is a bit abnormal because she was hit hard. When facing danger, she acts as if she’s a different person. Don’t take it to heart."

"Are you saying... dual personality?" Hu Yiyi asked in amazement.

"That’s right, dual personality."

Qin Shou nodded and added, "You know, Leng Wanbai is afflicted with this condition. If you provoke her and she ends up killing you, the Hu Family would likely struggle to find a justified reason to avenge you."

"Hmph, even if you hadn’t come, she wouldn’t necessarily have been able to kill me," Hu Yiyi retorted stubbornly.

"Sure, sure, under normal circumstances, she likely couldn’t harm you. But what if your Aunt visits and you’re feeling unwell..."

"Qin Shou, shut up!"

Hu Yiyi gritted her teeth. "Give me half of the Cosmic Creature Metal, and I promise not to bother you two anymore."

Qin Shou shrugged and spread his hands. "Impossible. That stuff was handed over to the Long Family ages ago."

"Impossible, I haven’t heard a word of it."

"Then your information network isn’t up to date."

"You’re trying to fool me again. This time, I won’t believe a word you say."

"If you don’t believe me, you can check my Space Wristwatch."

"Hmph, as if! You’re definitely hiding it somewhere."

Qin Shou held his forehead and sighed. "Fine. If you don’t trust me, well... I’ll admit I feel bad about deceiving you last time. How about we do this—I’ll compensate you with a Battle Armor."

"Battle Armor? Like Lin Xiaomei’s type?"

Hu Yiyi’s eyes suddenly lit up.

Qin Shou shook his head. "Not identical, but it should be similar."

As he spoke, he pulled out a belt and included a mechanical Yellow Jacket as a bonus.

"I found this on Dragon Island. It can boost the user’s strength by one Star Level, which I think should sufficiently express my apology."

Qin Shou said earnestly.

Hu Yiyi lightly bit her lip, her mind torn.

Take something from someone, and you owe them.

If she accepted this, she’d lose her leverage for getting even with Qin Shou later.

But... she really wanted it!

Seeing Hu Yiyi still conflicted, Qin Shou added, "Alright, maybe even this doesn’t fully make up for the mental anguish I caused you. After all, being emotionally deceived is truly tragic.

Here’s the deal—you’ve probably heard from Lin Xiaomei that my Beast Breeding Talent is fairly good. Give me your Nine-tailed Giant Fox for a week, and I’ll enhance it into a stronger beast."

Hu Yiyi gave him a strange look. "Would you really be so kind?"

"Of course. From the moment I saw it, I was inspired to improve it. Besides, you already have the belt; even if Xiao Bai and I teamed up, we still wouldn’t be a match for you. What are you worried about?"

"I’m not worried about anything. But since you seem so sincere, I’ll trust you this once."

Qin Shou beamed. "Thank you so much for letting this slide and accepting my apology."

"Who said anything about forgiving you?"

"Just now."

...

Ultimately, Hu Yiyi handed over the Nine-tailed Giant Fox to Qin Shou and moved into the room next to Leng Wanbai’s.

After enhancing the Nine-tailed Giant Fox, Qin Shou went to Leng Wanbai’s room.

"Xiao Bai, inform the Long Family now. Tell them we’ve got news about the Battle Armors, and have them send people to West City," Qin Shou instructed.

With Leng Wanbai’s connection, passing this information to the Long Family would bring substantial benefits.

Moreover, it would also help spread the distribution of these armors to the Federation—a win-win scenario.

Leng Wanbai did not hesitate and promptly contacted the Long Family.

The Long Family moved quickly, sending people through the Transmission Array to West City immediately.

An hour later.

The door knocked. Leng Wanbai opened it to reveal a kind-faced middle-aged man entering the room.

"Wan Bai, where exactly are the Battle Armors you mentioned?" the man asked, sounding a bit anxious.

Leng Wanbai pointed toward Qin Shou nearby and smiled. "Third Uncle, I heard about the armors from him. For specific details, you’ll have to ask him."

Third Uncle turned his head toward Qin Shou, frowning slightly.

A young girl leaving a man in her room—it wouldn’t look good if this got out.

But whatever. Finding those Battle Armors came first.

Armors capable of boosting one Star Level were no trivial matter.

"Haha, young man, I’m Wan Bai’s Third Uncle, Yan Bo. Since you’re Wan Bai’s friend, you can also call me Third Uncle," Yan Bo said with a warm smile.

Qin Shou knew that the Long Family men bore the surname Yan, while the women carried the surname Leng. This much he understood.

"Greetings, Third Uncle. I’m Qin Shou."

Yan Bo’s cheek twitched slightly—what a name!

Qin Shou smiled and said, "Third Uncle, I presume you’ve come this time to inquire about the Battle Armors?"

"Precisely. Can you tell me about them?"

"Certainly. But Third Uncle, if you do find those armors..."

Here, Qin Shou paused for effect.

Yan Bo assured him, "Don’t worry. The Long Family will never forget Qin Shou’s contributions."

Qin Shou’s smile grew even brighter.

"Here’s the thing—I acquired several Battle Armors way back before the Dragon Island Battle.

At first, I thought it was just sheer luck. But during the Dragon Island Battle, quite a few others also managed to find Battle Armors, which led me to suspect something."

After returning to West City, I revisited the places where the armors were discovered and conducted a thorough search. Finally, I found some clues."

Yan Bo gave it some thought and said, "Qin Shou, could you show me your Battle Armors?"

Qin Shou nodded readily. "Of course. Though most of the armors have been gifted away, I only have two sets left."

With that, he took out the finely-crafted Emperor Armor and Jiadou, casually handing them to Yan Bo.

Yan Bo carefully examined the two sets of armor, personally testing them out, and his eyes lit up with joy.
