Chapter 180: Chapter 179 Arrogant Rabbit_1

"Rabbit, don’t sleep... don’t sleep, okay!" Tianpeng Marshal truly feared the rabbit would sleep straight through to the next day, and he certainly didn’t have so much time to gallivant every day.

He had to train a vast navy every day, and especially at night he couldn’t go out, or he’d have to face military punishment; he was no exception.

So, he timed it just right, catching Rabbit and Chang’e as they came back from school, exchanging a greeting, spending a brief moment together, then heading back. The timing was just perfect.

But at the moment...

The rabbit’s eyelids lifted slightly and he said, "No can do, can’t move if I’m not full."

Upon hearing this, Tianpeng Marshal hurriedly brought out dish after dish from his Xumi Jiezi, saying, "How about a bite?"

Qin Shou glanced at the delicious dishes; by appearances alone they indeed looked attractive, and they smelled good too—certainly better than anything he made himself—but after tasting the Kitchen God’s cooking, Qin Shou’s resistance had grown stronger.

So, Qin Shou raised an eyebrow, with an indifferent look on his face, and stashed all ten plates into his Black Demon Box.

Then Qin Shou snorted twice, closed his eyes, and said, "I, Rabbit, have an extraordinary talent; ordinary food won’t do. I’ll move for a magic treasure. If there’s a treasure, we set off; if not, I sleep!"

Tianpeng was taken aback, then came to his senses with a curse in his head, "You don’t eat normal food, and yet you took all of it? And you, damn rabbit, you still want a magic treasure? Haven’t you taken enough already? You cheap rabbit, do you have no shame? Don’t you even blush when you lie?"

Tianpeng said nothing, and Qin Shou kept silent too, feigning sleep...

Tianpeng Marshal glared at the rabbit for a long time, seeing that the rabbit had thick skin and wasn’t bothered at all, adamant about not stopping until he got a magic treasure.

Tianpeng Marshal gritted his teeth and said, "I just remembered I still have things to handle, we won’t make it today, see you!"

With that, Tianpeng Marshal rose into the air and vanished in a blink.

Qin Shou’s eyelids flicked up; he looked around, not expecting Tianpeng Marshal to actually leave... missing the chance to score a treasure just like that.

Qin Shou shook his head, muttering, "Sheesh, so broke and still chasing girls, as if that would ever succeed."

Crack!

A sudden snapping sound echoed.

Qin Shou’s ears twitched; that sound was familiar, like the crack of a clenched fist.

"Is someone there?" Qin Shou’s heart skipped a beat, then suddenly he shivered, "That lazy pig didn’t leave! He’s planning to watch me go home and then pay a visit! He’s done this before! It must be... That way, it saves money, effort, and trouble... That sly pig is really shrewd!"

Qin Shou was just guessing but wasn’t certain, so he looked up at the sky and mumbled, "If Tianpeng is so unreliable, might as well give the chance to another Heavenly God. There are so many of them, surely there are richer ones... Right, who were those lined up to meet my sister? Let me check one by one..."

"Crack crack..."

The snapping continued, and the grass on the nearby turf seemed to be stepped on, making a soft noise.

Seeing this, Qin Shou figured it out; that lazy pig indeed hadn’t left!

Therefore, Qin Shou laughed joyfully, "Hey, why overthink it? No one gets to meet our sister without giving me, Rabbit, a gift! If they try to force their way in, I’ll go straight to the Jade Emperor to tattle! Hmph... So what if you’re a Heavenly God? Does that give you the right to act like a hooligan?"

Crack crack...

Qin Shou raised an eyebrow, "Ah well... I might as well sleep, no rush to go back tonight."

Qin Shou wasn’t in a hurry, but Tianpeng Marshal was getting anxious. Gritting his teeth, he flew to the sky again, pretending to have just flown back, descended from the clouds, and with a smile on his face said, "Little Rabbit, I’ve come back."

Upon hearing this, Qin Shou instantly felt amused inside. Indeed, this pighead had been tricked again.

Qin Shou lifted an eyelid and said, "Oh, good to have you back. Since you’re here, keep an eye on things for me, shoo away the flies and mosquitoes or whatever. I, Rabbit Lord, am going to take a nap."

The smile instantly froze on Tianpeng’s face. Was this damn rabbit really treating Marshal like a handyman?

Tianpeng knew that he couldn’t upset the rabbit now, so he kept a note of everything in his mind, planning to settle the scores with the rabbit after catching up to Chang’e, one by one!

Therefore, Tianpeng struggled to squeeze out a smile and said, "Little Rabbit, when I came back just now, I heard you say that giving you a gift would allow me to see Fairy Chang’e?"

Qin Shou slightly lifted his head and said, "I seem to recall it differently. What I said was, if you don’t give me a gift, you definitely won’t see her."

"It’s more or less the same... haha, Rabbit, look what I’ve brought for you."

While speaking, Tianpeng Marshal took out a Jade Ruyi and handed it over, saying, "Jade Ruyi, throw it to hit someone and it never fails, how’s that?"

Qin Shou was no longer the Qin Shou of before; having read ’Overview of Artifact Refinement’, he not only gained a profound understanding of various creatures—cough, cough—but also acquired a basic knowledge of identifying magic treasures.

At first glance, Qin Shou knew that this Jade Ruyi, just like the stick and whatnot that Tianpeng Marshal gave him earlier, was a yellow level Three Star magic treasure. It wasn’t particularly great, but indeed it was much better than the items offered by rogue immortals.

However, these items were not befitting of Tianpeng Marshal’s status. Clearly, Tianpeng was palming off the crappiest things from his collection.

But Qin Shou wasn’t picky. Whatever you give me, I’ll keep it. One shouldn’t refuse things that are free.

Besides, there’s plenty of time ahead. Let’s see how much you can keep giving until all your good stuff comes out.

So Qin Shou took it and immediately threw it in his mouth, crunching and munching away. After finishing, he patted his belly...

Tianpeng asked, "How is it? Feeling stronger now?"

Qin Shou smacking his lips said, "There’s too little Yuan Qi, not enough oomph."

Tianpeng couldn’t hold it in anymore and exclaimed, "Rabbit, you still want more?"

Qin Shou said, "Don’t act like you’re cutting off your own flesh. It’s just a yellow level Three Star magic treasure. Are you trying to get rid of a beggar?"

Upon hearing this, Tianpeng immediately felt displeased. "Just a yellow level Three Star magic treasure? Do you know how valuable a magic treasure is? With the scarcity of resources in Heaven and Earth, do you think it’s so easy to make magic treasures? A yellow level Three Star magic treasure can sell for ten thousand Red Spirit Crystals. Do you know how much that is?"

Qin Shou truly had no idea about the purchasing power of Spirit Crystals, so he just dug at his ear, unconcerned, and said, "How much?"

Tianpeng said, "Ten thousand Red Spirit Crystals can sustain an Immortal’s Yuan Qi consumption for one day of cultivation. And you’re still saying it’s not enough?"

Qin Shou tilted his head and asked, "Only one day, huh..."

Tianpeng rolled his eyes and said, "Only one day? I really want to strangle you! If it were an ordinary person, with ten thousand Red Spirit Crystals, they could break through the Essence Refining realm and soar through the skies."

Qin Shou said, "But they can absorb the Yuan Qi of heaven and earth for cultivation. Why bother using Red Spirit Crystals?"

Hearing this question, Tianpeng looked at Qin Shou as if looking at an idiot and said, "The Yuan Qi of heaven and earth, except in some special blessed lands, commonly contains impurities. It’s not only difficult to absorb, but also requires filtering through cultivation techniques to assimilate."
