Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
“What… What’s going on? What happened to Lie Shan? Why did he run away? Even one of his shoes fell off?”
“I don’t know, but I know that this cat is definitely not simple. Think about it, even Lie Shan was scared to this extent. How simple can this cat be?”
“This…”
Everyone looked at the calm Orange Cat and then looked at the direction Lie Shan left in. They vaguely understood something and their expressions became serious.
There was nothing they could do. The scene not long ago was too strange.
Lie Shan, who was so powerful, first knelt down and then rolled and crawled away. Everyone had to pay attention to such a scene.
Therefore, at this moment, the way everyone looked at Li Xuan completely changed. There was no longer the contempt from before. There was only fear.
“Referee, announce the result!”
Li Xuan turned his head to look at the referee, gesturing for him to quickly announce the result.
“O-okay.”
The referee was also a little confused. Lie Shan’s previous performance could be said to be quite eye-catching. Even the referee thought that Lie Shan was 100% the champion.
However, after the appearance of this cat, Lie Shan was actually scared to the point that he ran away like a rabbit. Such a scene was really shocking.
Taking a deep breath, the referee looked at the Orange Cat solemnly, raised his hand, and said loudly, “I announce the winner, the Orange Cat!”
Clap! Clap! Clap!
Applause rang out slowly. While everyone was clapping, they were also secretly guessing Li Xuan’s identity. They were guessing why he could scare Lie Shan away.
Li Xuan did not care about these people’s guesses. What he cared about was the Swift Flower.
The Swift Flower could increase one’s speed and strengthen one’s abilities. This was Li Xuan’s goal. Everything else was useless.
“Congratulations, this is your Swift Flower. May I know if you would like to join our Earth Battle Team?”The referee smiled as he sent out the invitation.
When he sent out the invitation, the surrounding audience immediately revealed looks of surprise. Then, they gathered together and whispered among themselves.
“The Earth Battle Team has actually started to recruit people. This is a good thing, a good opportunity.”
“The Earth Battle Team is a veteran battle team. They are strong and have rich experience. If they can join such a team, it would be a stroke of luck.”
“Yeah, this is a good opportunity. Hurry up and join.”
“If it were me, I would choose to join immediately. This is the Earth Battle Team.”
The group of people discussed animatedly. They looked at Li Xuan with envy. They felt that Li Xuan was very lucky to be able to join the Earth Battle Team.
However, Li Xuan, who was in the center of everyone’s line of sight, shook his head after hearing the referee’s words. “I’m not interested.”
“Ah? Not interested?”
The referee was stunned. He had not expected Li Xuan to reject him so decisively.
“Yes, I’m not interested. Let’s go, Yueyue.”
Li Xuan lightly jumped onto Qin Yue’s shoulder and directly walked out together with Qin Yue. There was not the slightest bit of reluctance or unwillingness.
This kind of performance made everyone present look at each other, feeling even more surprised and guessing Li Xuan’s extraordinariness,
in their guesses, Li Xuan and Qin Yue left, walking toward home.
Of course, during this process, Li Xuan quickly ate the Swift Flowers, and his ability increased by a notch.

…
Seeing his skill improve once again, Li Xuan was in a good mood. Speed Enhancement was a Passive Skill, which could greatly increase his strength.
If this skill was upgraded to the peak, then his combat strength would increase greatly, which would make him even more fearful.
Unfortunately, materials for Speed Enhancement were scarce. It would still take time to find such materials, so Li Xuan could only choose to wait.
“Brother Li Xuan, look at that poor little girl over there. Can I help her?”
On the street, Qin Yue saw a dirty little girl sitting in a corner. Her Haggard appearance made Qin Yue feel pity for her.
“Sure.” Li Xuan nodded and said indifferently.
Since they had refined a lot of pills and had a certain amount of savings, they were no longer as poor as before.
If Qin Yue wanted to help people in trouble, Li Xuan would not stop her. After all, a kind Qin Yue was more beautiful than a heartless Qin Yue.
“Thank you, Brother Li Xuan.”
Qin Yue received Li Xuan’s permission. She touched the cat’s head gratefully. Then, she took out her small wallet and quickly went to buy some buns.
She did not use the money Li Xuan gave her but used her own salary.
The main reason was that Li Xuan’s money was still needed and he had to buy a lot of materials. Qin Yue did not want to delay Li Xuan’s improvement.
Besides, she worked in the pill store and learned how to create hemostatic medicine. She also made a lot of money for the store, so her salary was not bad.
With the hot buns she bought, Qin Yue quickly walked in front of the little girl and began to talk to her. She handed the buns over.
“Thank you, Sis.”
The little girl was famished. She thanked Qin Yue while wolfing down the food. She did not even care if the buns were dirtied by her dirty little hands.
“Eat slowly, eat slowly. Be careful not to choke.”
Qin Yue was worried that the little girl would choke. As she spoke, she gently patted the little girl’s back. At the same time, she was ready to get up and buy some water.
“I have water here.”
Li Xuan’s little claws moved, and in an instant, a wine gourd appeared.
This was the mountain spring water that he had collected with the wine gourd in the alternate world. There was a large pile of it in his Portable Space.
“Thank you, Brother Li Xuan.” Qin Yue’s voice was sweet as she thanked him. Then, she handed the wine gourd to the little girl.
The way Qin Yue thanked the orange cat made the little girl who was eating the steamed bun slightly stunned.
She looked at Li Xuan and the wine gourd that was handed over. After a moment of hesitation, she said, “Thank you, kitty.”
After thanking the cat, she took the wine gourd and began to drink it. After taking a gulp, she was stunned for a moment before saying softly, “The water is very delicious. It’s sweet and refreshing.”
“The water is delicious? Isn’t it all the same?”
Song Xiaomei asked curiously. She had basically never left Black Rock City and had never tasted mountain spring water.
“Yes, it’s very delicious. I’ve never drunk such delicious water before.”
The little girl explained softly. After hesitating for a moment, she passed the wine gourd to Song Xiaomei, as if asking her to drink it.
“You drink it. I have more here.” Li Xuan took out two wine gourds from his Portable Space and gave them to Song Xiaomei and Qin Yue.
“I’ll try it.”
Song Xiaomei took the wine gourd and tried to take a sip. Instantly, her eyes lit up.
“It’s really delicious and very refreshing. Brother Li Xuan, you actually have such a good thing?” Song Xiaomei looked at Li Xuan curiously.
“This is mountain spring water. It’s of better quality. In the future, I’ll bring you to the mountains to take a look. Maybe you can see it,” Li Xuan said.
“Okay. Thank you, Brother Li Xuan.” Song Xiaomei smiled sweetly and tasted the delicious mountain spring water again.
The big black bear at the side saw that there was food and could not help but come over, showing a flattering look.
“Go away.”
Song Xiaomei gave the big black bear a slap, causing it to squat on the ground sullenly. It looked at Qin Yue with a wronged expression, as if saying that it had been wronged.
“Alright, alright. I’ll buy you a roast chicken later,” Qin Yue comforted.
Roar!
The big black bear was instantly excited when he heard this. He immediately stood up and wanted to jump, but he was slapped back by Song Xiaomei.
At the side, the little girl watched Qin Yue and the others play with each other warmly. Her eyes were filled with envy.
After hesitating for two seconds, the little girl suddenly said.
“Thank you for helping me. I have a piece of news. Do you need it?”
“News? What news?”Li Xuan asked.
“It’s about a fruit. It’s a red fruit that can emit light,” the little girl said.
“Fruit? It can emit light? Are you sure?” Li Xuan immediately became serious. He stared at the little girl, feeling that she was not as simple as she appeared..
