Chapter 537: Chapter 149: The Suffering Nether River [Part 1]_1

Furthermore, once the Blood Ginseng entered his body, it immediately burst forth with the immense Yuan Qi of heaven and earth to nourish Qin Shou’s entire form. Therefore, Qin Shou grew even more certain that this old man had given him something valuable.

However, what was the meaning behind the glint of ferocity in the old man’s eyes earlier? Did they have a grudge between them?

If they did, why would the other party give him something good to eat?

It made no sense!

No matter how hard he tried, Qin Shou couldn’t figure it out, and since he couldn’t, he stopped thinking about it.

After absorbing the Yuan Qi from the Blood Ginseng, Qin Shou clearly felt his body rapidly recovering. In a matter of a few breaths, all discomfort, fatigue, and weakness had disappeared, and the rabbit had become energetic once more.

"All better?" the old man asked with concern.

Qin Shou nodded and said, "Yes, thank you, elder, for the Blood Ginseng. It must be expensive, right?"

The old man hurriedly shook his head and said, "Not at all, not at all, it’s not expensive..."

Qin Shou eyed the old man skeptically. He was no longer the naive rabbit that had just arrived in this world. He had seen plenty of valuable items, and the vast Yuan Qi provided by the Blood Ginseng was the most abundant among all the treasures he had eaten over the years! How could such a fine item not be expensive?

So Qin Shou asked, "Really?"

The old man seemed very anxious and replied dismissively with a smile, "Of course it’s true."

Qin Shou slapped his thigh and said, "That’s great, then. You can start by sending me a hundred catties. I’ll leave you an address later. When I need more, you can mail them to me. Honestly, eating it like this is a waste. If I could stew a young chicken that’s been raised for eight or nine hundred years, that would be perfect."

Upon hearing this, the smile on the old man’s face instantly froze, his chest heaved, and he coughed dryly, covering his mouth as if he was about to cough up blood out of frustration.

Nevertheless, the old man quickly recovered and said, "It’s not expensive, but the supply of Blood Ginseng is limited. I only had one, and you’ve eaten it. Look, your injuries are healed. If there’s nothing else, you should leave soon."

With that, the old man waved his hand, and the door opened—he had given the order to leave.

Although Qin Shou wasn’t the most astute of people, he was never lacking in cleverness. Taking a look at the old man and thinking about the Blood Ginseng, he couldn’t shake the feeling that the old man seemed to be in a rush to send him away.

Moreover, this old man was probably not a simple character!

Therefore, Qin Shou sat cross-legged on the bed and boldly asked, swaying about like a roly-poly toy, "What’s the hurry? By the way, you said you saw a woman with me? What does she look like? Where is she now?"

Pointing outside, the old man said, "Her name is Hanyue, with long legs, a big chest... very..."

When the old man got to this point, his eyes seemed a bit overly excited, his tongue occasionally licking his lips.

Qin Shou saw this and immediately became anxious. It seemed he was dealing with a dirty old man! Thinking of Hanyue’s alluring and unrivaled body in the hands of this lecher, Qin Shou immediately became worried and leaned in to ask, "Get to the point. Where is she?"

Only then did the old man snap back to reality, realizing he had gone off-topic, and with a chuckle, he pointed to the door across the hall, saying, "She’s staying right across from you. I have already healed her wounds. If you want to take her with you, just go and talk to her. If you want to leave, turn right outside the door. There is a Teleportation Array. I’ve already placed the activating Crystal Stone inside it. Once activated, it can take you straight to the Earthly Immortal Realm, which is very convenient."

Upon hearing this, Qin Shou sprang up and rushed to knock on the door across the way.

However, the door creaked open, revealing a pair of long legs. Following the legs upwards, across a slender waist that one could grip, over two mountain peaks, Qin Shou’s angle bizarrely prevented him from seeing the person’s face!

Qin Shou had to take two steps back before he could clearly see the baby face of the other person—it was indeed Hanyue!

When Hanyue saw Qin Shou wake up, she also appeared extremely happy. She hugged Qin Shou and laughed, "Rabbit, I’m so glad you’re okay!"

The old man opposite them turned his head, his eyes twitching uncontrollably. He subconsciously touched his face, then his chest, and finally exclaimed in exasperation, "Stop the sappiness! If you’re leaving, then hurry up! Make a right turn when you exit!"

Only then did Hanyue notice the old man’s presence, yet showed no sign of embarrassment. Instead, she nodded slightly and said, "Thank you, old sir, for saving my life."

Bang!

The old man’s door closed, and from inside came the voice: "I, an old man, am also going into seclusion. Do not disturb me unless it’s important."

Hanyue said respectfully, "Since the senior is entering seclusion, we naturally will not bother you. We take our leave now."

After saying that, Hanyue led Qin Shou away.

They turned the corner and indeed saw a Teleportation Array. It wasn’t large, but it was extremely intricate—clearly a high-quality item.

Hanyue stepped onto it, and saw that in each of the eight directions of the Teleportation Array, there was a yellow Crystal Stone...

Hanyue said in surprise, "It requires eight Yellow Spirit Crystals to activate? How extravagant..."

At that moment, Qin Shou finally pulled his head out of the valley and called out, "Yellow Spirit Crystal? What’s that?"

Hanyue responded, "This is my first time seeing them as well. It’s said that the Heavenly Court created Spirit Crystals as a universal currency for the world, with seven colors ranging from red to purple to denote the seven levels. Among these, red is the lowest, and purple the most valuable. The most common on the market is the Red Spirit Crystal, and occasionally the Orange Spirit Crystal. These Yellow Spirit Crystals are new to me too, but judging by the price ratio of Crystal Stones, one Yellow Spirit Crystal for ten thousand Orange Spirit Crystals should be doable."

No sooner had she finished speaking than the rabbit leaped out of Hanyue’s embrace. One by one, it plucked out the Yellow Spirit Crystals and unceremoniously stuffed them into its Black Demon Box.

Hanyue looked puzzled and said, "Rabbit, by doing this, we won’t be able to activate the Teleportation Array."

Qin Shou, however, seemed unconcerned as he replied, "Don’t worry, it will work."

After speaking, Qin Shou turned and ran back. As he ran, he glanced at the large characters on the Teleportation Array—Residence of the Nether River Patriarch!

Qin Shou’s lips curled slightly, and he cursed inwardly, "Damn! Good thing I saw these words when I came in, otherwise if we just teleported away, that would have been a real loss! I thought he was a great benefactor, but turns out he’s the source of all evil. You sneaky old man, if it weren’t for your fine disciple, would I have been injured?"

Meanwhile, the Nether River Patriarch, who was sitting inside the room, heaved a sigh of relief after seeing the rabbit and company leave. Slumping into his chair, he said, "I’ve finally sent off that little ancestor."

Right after, the Nether River Patriarch touched his waist, and the next instant, he broke out into a cold sweat and exclaimed in panic, "Crap! I didn’t erase the name on the Teleportation Array..."

Bang!

In the midst of speaking, the door had already opened!

Nether River Patriarch turned his head, only to see the rabbit charging in!

The Nether River Patriarch thought to himself that this was bad—the rabbit must have found out! Coming here to cause trouble, what should he do now?
