"You bastard! Are you purposely trying to find fault with us?!" Ou Yanghu barked, clearly irritated. "We don't even have a spacecraft ourselves and have to travel on foot. How are we supposed to give you a spacecraft?"
"You pay back what you owe, that's heaven's law and the earth's principle (it is perfectly justified)! My friends and I are in a hurry. Is it wrong for us to want to be reimbursed with a spacecraft?" Chen Xiaobei said steely. "On top of that, my friend is seriously injured and unconscious. Am I supposed to carry him all the way? What happens then, if he dies from his injuries? How should that debt be repaid?"
"This…" Ou Yanghu opened his mouth to speak but could come up with no retorts. They were the ones in the wrong after all.
But he was not a Buddhist practitioner, so his shame festered into anger. "What utter nonsense! You have two choices – you either take the Spiritual Stones and get out of our sight or you and your friend will die here!"
"Oh? You mean you're going to kill us?" Chen Xiaobei narrowed his eyes as he reached into his Infinite Space Ring, ready to take out his trump card and fight.
"No! No! No! My Shixiong didn't mean that!" Su Xiaoman quickly ran to the front to block Ou Yanghu.
"Xiaoman! Step aside!" Ou Yanghu's face darkened. "No one in these mountains would dare to refuse to give me face!"
"Shixiong! I am the one in the wrong. We should not be adding to our trespass…" Su Xiaoman pursed her lips. "How about this: shixiong, you lead our people to continue the assignment, and I will help them steal a spacecraft. I will meet up with you later on!"
"No way! What if they take advantage of you?" Ou Yanghu crossed his arms.
"They won't. I can tell that this gentleman here is not an unreasonable person!" Su Xiaoman said. "Alright. That's what we'll do. You will need another seven days to reach the location since you're going on foot. I will be able to catch up with you guys when I'm done!"
Ou Yanghu thought about it for a minute and then nodded. "Fine! We'll do as you say!"
"Thank you shixiong!" Su Xiaoman said, relieved.
Ou Yanghu glared at Chen Xiaobei and warned, "Hey kid, I'm letting you off the hook because of my shimei! You better not try anything stupid. If even a strand of hair on my shimei is touched, I will kill you!"
"Understood." Chen Xiaobei shrugged.
Ou Yanghu may be strong but Chen Xiaobei's trump card was even stronger!
The fact was, if Su Xiaoman had not interfered, Ou Yanghu and the hundred-plus men would have been already dead!
"Let's go!" Ou Yanghu signalled to his people and they left in hurry.
"Sir, I am very sorry…" Su Xiaoman said. "My shixiong has quite a temper. Please excuse him!"
"Don't worry, I won't stoop to his level!" Chen Xiaobei shrugged. "Let's make a move forward as well!"
As he was talking, he took out a Taiyi Life Enhancement Pill and gave it to Ao Liancheng.
"Forward? We can't!" Su Xiaoman said. "We have to go backwards! Tenshou Warriors are gathering in the valley behind. That's where we can find a spacecraft!"
Chen Xiaobei rubbed the side of his forehead. "Still… We better move forward… I really am in a rush! Anyway, the Tenshou people will catch up with us eventually. We'll steal their spacecraft then!"
The information that Ling Qingfeng had provided and Ou Yanghu's eagerness to complete their assignment confirmed that the Divine Tiger Faction's mission was to collect the Abyssal Ice!
There was no way the Divine Tiger Faction could not afford to buy spacecraft. The only reason they had chosen to go on foot could was to be avoided being seen or heard. It could only be deduced that this assignment was extremely classified – which, reinforced the assumption that the Divine Tiger Faction was indeed going to collect Abyssal Ice!
Chen Xiaobei insisted on getting reimbursed with a spacecraft so that he could follow the Divine Tiger Faction closely.
"We can also do that, but we have to take a different route. If shixiong finds out, he'll be really pissed!" Su Xiaoman said.
"Mm, we'll do that!" Chen Xiaobei nodded.
As long as they were heading towards the right direction, and even after travelling on foot for seven days, Chen Xiaobei might be able to use his Blood Descendant Special Ability to locate the Abyssal Ice.

Su Xiaoman nodded and led the way.
"Huh? What medicine did you give your friend? His injuries seem to have improved." Su Xiaoman asked in astonishment.
"Oh, er, that's a special remedy from my hometown. It works well enough." Chen Xiaobei simply made up a white-lie, turning to look at Ao Liancheng.
The medicine's effectiveness, however, worked inversely to the patient's health.
Because Ao Liancheng's health was at a demigod level, the Taiyi Life Enhancement Pill's effectiveness was greatly reduced.
Last time, when he gave Bro Huo the pill, the effect was immediately noticeable and his wounds were completely healed in a matter of minutes.
This time, however, Ao Liancheng remained unconscious. His injuries were healing at a much slower rate than Bro Huo's!
Even though minuscule, Su Xiaoman noticed Ao Liancheng's recovery because she had never seen a better medicine than that!
This being the case, not only did the Netherspirit Battlescouter and Heavenly Dog Biscuit need to be upgraded, but even his pills, weapons and all his trump cards would have to be improved as well!
Chen Xiaobei now understood why Lady Nuwo made it a condition for him to reach God-Ascension cultivation before revealing Little Fox's whereabouts.
To find her and keep her safe, Chen Xiaobei needed to be strong and capable enough! He needed to have sufficient power! Or else, if he rushed it, he would only make things worse for both of them!
His cultivation needed to be upgraded one way or another!
Chen Xiaobei had a lot to do in these three months!
...
Saint Duke palace.
Under the glow of the setting sun, Luo Puti and Luo Qiongcang strolled in the lonely imperial garden.
"Puti, do you still remember that kid?" Luo Qiongcang asked.
"Do you mean the kid who handed in a Two-Star Earth-God material and got the better of Helian Tulong?" Luo Puti answered.
"Yes! That's him! We have just received the latest news from our intelligence that the kid shares the same capacity as Ling Qingfeng. In fact, he even saved the merpeople of Neptune Starfield from the threat of extinction!"
"This guy has so many secrets!" Luo Puti's brows furrowed. "Is the report detailed? How did he manage to solve the threat?"
"No, it's not!" Luo Qiongcang shook his head. "That kid solved the whole thing himself! Even the merpeople didn't get to see the whole process!"
"There's no way one person could've had solved the problem!" Luo Puti said dismissively. "He must have had some help!"
"Mm, I thought so too! Tenshou's emperor must have been involved!" Luo Qiongcang said.
"What was Neptune's holy emperor's attitude been after the fact?" Luo Puti asked.
"According to the reports, the holy emperor and the kid had a private discussion. The details are not confirmed!" Luo Qiongcang said. "If my guess is correct, the emperor eliminated the threat, and during the private discussion, he probably invited Neptune to be their ally against us!"
Luo Puti's face twisted into worry. "What… should we do? I didn't consider this in my plan!"
