Seeing Lu Yibei's reluctant look, Chatterbox Girl rolled her eyes and said, "Don't you think you've been busy for a long time and haven't gotten anything, losing a lot?"

"No, absolutely not." Lu Yibei said seriously, "How could I feel a loss? Feeling a loss over such a small matter would be small-minded, wouldn't it? Effort doesn't necessarily yield rewards, but without effort, you don't even have the right to be harvested, right?"

Although Lu Yibei herself knew that using a large amount of Spiritual Energy and ground vein energy to repair the special space was not a loss to her at all, it could even be considered a gain.

However, as the old saying goes, the crying child gets the milk, and maybe she could get some from Chatterbox Girl...

Uh, I mean maybe by acting pitiful, she could get some benefits from Chatterbox Girl for free?

It can't always be her tricking me, and I can't get any benefits from her, right?

Even getting a few half-price Dailian coupons would be good! Lu Yibei thought.

"..."

After listening to Lu Yibei's sarcastic remarks, Chatterbox Girl was silent for a few seconds and said irritably, "Every day, can't you watch less of that toxic chicken soup? Watching too much of that stuff lowers your intelligence!"

"Besides, your Power has been completed, and the quality and quantity of your Spiritual Energy fluctuations will increase. Although a part of the extra Spiritual Energy needs to be kept to maintain the operation of the special space."

"How much needs to be kept?" Lu Yibei asked in confusion.

Chatterbox Girl shrugged, "Four-six split!"

Lu Yibei frowned slightly, "Only 60% can be used? That's fine! It's better than nothing!"

"What 60%? 40%!" Chatterbox Girl rolled her eyes at Lu Yibei, "60% needs to be kept in the special space to maintain its operation!"

"..." Lu Yibei was silent for two seconds and said expressionlessly, "Listening to you, why do I feel like this special space has become a burden? If it's really impossible, I'll just report myself and hand over the special space to the Night Watch. Maybe they'll even give me a small banner as a friend of humanity."

"Tsk!" Chatterbox Girl spat, "Look at you! Is it just that you've paid a little Spiritual Energy and the ground vein energy can't be used temporarily because it's gone?"

Speaking of this, she paused, looked intently into Lu Yibei's eyes, and said seriously, "Lu Yibei, you need to know that although ground vein energy is very convenient, it can only make your strength skyrocket within the range of Hua City for a short time."

"You can't possibly cower in Hua City your whole life, can you? That stuff is not your own strength after all. Getting rid of your dependence on it earlier is a good thing instead."

"What's more, isn't integrating the ground vein energy into the special space so that you can use the amplification effect of the ground vein energy anytime, anywhere in the future?"

Hearing this, Lu Yibei's eyes lit up, "What? Can ground vein energy be taken away?"

"I understand, I understand, this is like changing a fixed socket to a portable power bank, right?"

Chatterbox Girl nodded slightly, "Indeed, this is one of the most common uses of a God Kingdom."

Upon hearing this, Lu Yibei immediately imagined a scene where, during a fight with an enemy, she suddenly took out a special space from under her skirt, took out the ground vein energy from inside, integrated it into her body, and then her combat power instantly surged as if she had been injected with a stimulant.

However, just as she was starting to get a little excited, Chatterbox Girl, like a merciless sprinkler, poured a basin of cold water over her head.

"However, it's not possible yet, after all, this special space is just a God Kingdom Prototype."

Lu Yibei frowned slightly.

Then what's the use of it?

A power bank that can't be taken out is not a good power bank, and a cheat that can't be used anytime, anywhere is not a good cheat... Lu Yibei muttered.

"However..."

"However? Is there another twist?" Lu Yibei said impatiently, "Can't you just say it all at once?"

"Didn't I just finish talking?!" Chatterbox Girl rolled her eyes at Lu Yibei and said, "Even if it's just a God Kingdom Prototype, it's not completely impossible to carry it with you."

Lu Yibei scratched the back of her head and asked, "What's the method?"

Chatterbox Girl narrowed her eyes slightly and said meaningfully, "Do you remember the Great Serpent God's Bamboo Scroll Illusion?"

"Of course I remember, it seems to be in Gu Qianqian's hands." Lu Yibei nodded.

As the King of Weird Tales who controls the ground vein energy of Hua City and leads a group of urban legend, Lu Yibei could easily obtain the information that Gu Qianqian had a simple and unadorned bamboo scroll in her hand.

As for what Gu Qianqian did with the Bamboo Scroll Illusion, she didn't know.

After a moment of contemplation, Lu Yibei held her chin with one hand, narrowed her eyes slightly, and said, "You mean, you want me to go and get Gu Qianqian's bamboo scroll?"

"Wouldn't doing this be a bit dishonest?"

Ever since she read Gu Xinian's diary and learned that Gu Qianqian was her fiancée, Lu Yibei always felt that she should treat her a little better.

"I'm just giving an example! Stop always thinking about using underhanded methods, okay?" Chatterbox Girl sighed helplessly, "What I mean is, you can also find a Spiritual Energy item strong enough to entrust the God Kingdom to, just like the Great Serpent God."

A Spiritual Energy item strong enough... Lu Yibei asked, "For example?"

"For example..." Chatterbox Girl thought for a moment, "Didn't Ms. Wang Meili leave you a lot of birthday presents? There should be some reliable Spiritual Energy items in there, right?"

"Not really." Lu Yibei covered her forehead and rubbed her slightly aching temples.

Like a mirror that can play rock-paper-scissors with itself, a bracelet that prevents smoke from drifting towards you when eating hot pot, a doll that can tell you the winning numbers of the previous lottery without looking at the results, shoes that you will never fall down in when walking backward...

Except for the wooden carved deer used for riding and the furry gloves that guarantee no mosquitoes will bite you as long as there are two or more people present, the gifts left by Ms. Wang Meili had no particularly high practical value.

Lu Yibei gradually understood during the process of opening the gifts that her Old Dad didn't send her those strange things as promised, aside from the purpose of wanting her to stay away from Spiritual Energy items, it was probably also because he realized that those things were completely useless.

"None?" Chatterbox Girl heard the unexpected answer and pondered for two seconds, "That's a bit troublesome. The only Spiritual Energy item I can think of that can withstand this special space is the complete Lingtai Pure Karma for now."

"If the Lingtai Pure Karma can become the vessel for this special space, then not only can you carry this God Kingdom Prototype with you at all times, but the Lingtai Pure Karma can also be nourished and strengthened, which is a good thing that kills two birds with one stone, but..."

"But what? Is it difficult?" Lu Yibei asked.

How long has it been? I've found four out of five fragments.

The last one shouldn't take much effort either, right? Lu Yibei thought with a bit of arrogance.

"Not difficult, not difficult!" Chatterbox Girl shook her head and smiled maliciously, "As far as I know, the last part of the fragment is in the hands of the Black Emperor."

"Who?" Lu Yibei tilted her head.

"One of the five Calamity level Psychic belonging to the Night Watch, and also the Psychic with the strongest individual combat power on the surface of the Night Watch." Chatterbox Girl explained.

"You just need to sneak into his house, find the last fragment of the Lingtai Pure Karma, and then take it out without anyone knowing. How about that? Very simple, right?"

Lu Yibei stared at Chatterbox Girl expressionlessly for a few seconds, and after confirming that she was not joking, she clasped her fists at her.

"Speaking of which... I suddenly remembered that I might not have turned off the gas at home when I left. I have to go back first, otherwise Gu Qianqian will be poisoned to death. Let's talk about anything else next time."

Are you kidding me?

Stealing things from the strongest combat power on the surface of the Night Watch, how is that different from trying to get something from a tiger?

Why don't you suggest I find a way to become the Chairman of the Night Watch?

Lu Yibei thought to herself as she walked straight towards the edge of the rooftop and then silently climbed onto the railing.

This is outrageous!

It's like, if you want to defeat the first boss out of the novice village, you don't have enough strength and must strengthen yourself, but the only way to strengthen yourself is to defeat the final Great Demon King and get the equipment he drops, otherwise you can't leave the novice village.

It's simply a dead end.

Just as Lu Yibei climbed onto the rooftop railing and was about to jump down to escape this damned place, Chatterbox Girl grabbed her wrist and pulled her back forcefully.

"Don't be in a hurry! I haven't finished talking yet!" Chatterbox Girl explained, "I didn't tell you to steal it yourself, we can use a bit of a roundabout tactic!"

"Good heavens, it's not enough to want to kill me, you even want me to drag others down with me?" Lu Yibei exclaimed, "You evil thing, how can your heart be so black?"

Chatterbox Girl rolled her eyes at Lu Yibei, "I didn't tell you to act now, I'm just providing you with a possible plan. When to act and whether to act in the end is up to you, isn't it?"

Lu Yibei expressionlessly made a gesture of invitation to Chatterbox Girl, "I'd like to hear the details!"

I want to see what tricks you can come up with!

"As far as I know, the Black Emperor has a grand-disciple who is a once-in-a-century genius of Da Chunyang Palace..."

"Alright, I don't want to hear it." Lu Yibei interrupted, "I choose to lie flat, I'll just stay in Hua City my whole life and not go anywhere else."

After saying that, she climbed onto the rooftop railing again.

From the strongest Psychic to the grand-disciple of the strongest Psychic.

The difficulty is at most reduced from facing the Great Demon King right after leaving the novice village to facing the strongest of the Four Heavenly Kings.

What's more, there are also the deadly modifiers like Da Chunyang Palace and once-in-a-century genius... Wait, that's not right, I seem to have heard that name somewhere?

Thinking of this, Lu Yibei suddenly turned to look at Chatterbox Girl and glanced at her suspiciously, "Is this genius grand-disciple you're talking about named Fu Xinyi?"

That's right, when I was in Tang City, that Miss seemed to have bragged to me that she was a genius of Da Chunyang Palace.

"I don't know that..." Chatterbox Girl shrugged and said indifferently, "I just know that such a person exists and has a close relationship with the Black Emperor. If we can use her to bring out the last fragment, the risk will be much lower."

"..." Lu Yibei pondered for a while and asked, "By the way, do you know the name of that Black Emperor?"

"I don't know." Chatterbox Girl pouted, and there was an undisguised look of disgust in her eyes as she spoke.

"Do you have a grudge?" Lu Yibei asked curiously.

"There's no grudge!" Chatterbox Girl said indifferently, "I just simply dislike him."

"Why?"

Chatterbox Girl, "..."

Why? He inexplicably wanted to kill me as soon as we met. It's impossible to ask for someone's name during a life-and-death struggle, right?

Even if I asked, he probably wouldn't tell me. For urban legend and Psychic, exposing their true name to the enemy is equivalent to giving the enemy an extra way to win for no reason.

Various curse methods are still very common between Psychic and urban legend.

Chatterbox Girl muttered to herself for a while, but didn't say it out loud.

If she told Lu Yibei these words, she might surrender on the spot.

"Let's put it this way! Suppose there is a Miss who smokes, drinks, perms her hair, and fights, but she knows she is a good girl. Then one day, an old man who is inexplicably meddling comes out and, without understanding what she has gone through, wants to persuade her to be good and become a nun. What do you think she will do?"

Lu Yibei glanced at Chatterbox Girl sideways and asked, "Is the girl you're talking about yourself?"

Chatterbox Girl glared at Lu Yibei but didn't speak.

"Uh, I understand."

Sensing a hint of killing intent in her eyes, Lu Yibei nodded decisively.

Although she still had doubts about Chatterbox Girl's words, pretending to understand at this time was the right thing to do.

"Anyway, if I have a chance, I'll give it a try."

If the genius Chatterbox Girl mentioned is Fu Xinyi, then the Black Emperor, as Fu Xinyi's grand-master, is very likely Zhang Huainan, or someone closely related to him.

In this case, with the tangled relationship between the Ancestor and Da Chunyang Palace, there is room for maneuver.

However, before that, I must make sufficient preparations to ensure that I have at least 120% certainty of successfully escaping ~Nоvеl𝕚ght~ when facing the Black Emperor. Lu Yibei thought.

----

After spending some more time asking Chatterbox Girl for some details, Lu Yibei bid farewell to him, climbed onto the rooftop railing, and jumped down, skillfully plunging into darkness.

However.

Although Lu Yibei had obtained a lot of useful information from Chatterbox Girl, it was precisely because of this that she felt puzzled and couldn't help but ponder.

Has Chatterbox Girl never had contact with the Ancestor?

If she had had an in-depth conversation with the Ancestor, and then was "meddled with" by the Black Emperor from Da Chunyang Palace, she would at least not resist violently.

Damn it, I'm suddenly a little curious about what happened to her, what should I do?

Lu Yibei thought so, and at the same time, she vaguely felt that if she delved too deeply into Chatterbox Girl's affairs, it would probably lead to very bad results.

And then...

Just as she was struggling, the darkness before her eyes began to dissipate, and a faint light entered her field of vision.

Her body seemed to be lifted by the buoyancy of water, and a strange and mysterious song echoed in her ears.

----

"...~WRYYYYYYYYYY~Yeah!"

Lu Yibei woke up with a start, staring at the white ceiling, lost in thought for a long time before slowly picking up the phone by her pillow and answering the call.

"Hello?" frёeweɓηovel.coɱ

"Hey! Xiao Bei, when are you coming out?"

"Ah?" Lu Yibei was stunned for a few seconds before realizing that the voice on the other end of the phone was Su Mi's. She opened her mouth, just about to say something, when she heard Su Mi on the other end complaining.

"Ah what? Look at what time it is, didn't we brothers agree to go out early before the graduation dinner and play games at the internet cafe?"

Graduation dinner? Play games at the internet cafe? Lu Yibei frowned and turned to look out the window.

Outside the window, the bright morning sun was like it had been washed, fresh and clear.

The light golden rays passed through the branches of the old trees in the courtyard and sprinkled on the windowsill. Fine dust particles danced in the air, reflecting faint colorful light clusters.

Seeing this scene, Lu Yibei suddenly realized.

The operation of the special space has gotten on the right track.

Except for the part plundered by the Eclipse Society, everything has returned to normal...
