An hour and a half later, on the pedestrian street, Korean cuisine.

Shen Qiang had especially chosen very time-consuming dishes to prepare, which were still being served slowly, one by one.

The cold and stunningly beautiful female superior, Qian Shanxue, although she had eaten a lot, was still very interested in the food, which almost confirmed Shen Qiang's previous guess—she had a huge appetite, absolutely astonishing.

As for the petite young girl Ali, after eating some food, clearly was already a bit full.

So Shen Qiang had to chat with her off and on about nothing in particular.

After all, in name, Shen Qiang had matters to consult them about, but the real purpose was to drag the two of them along as free bodyguards.

Ali's cultivation wasn't too impressive, but Qian Shanxue was definitely powerful.

Therefore, using dish after dish prepared slowly to keep the two of them there was undoubtedly the best method.

However, it seemed that Qian Shanxue was only interested in the food.

Ali sat to the side, fiddling with her phone, and Shen Qiang peeked over, discovering she was intently staring at a photo of a product in the Points Redemption Mall on her phone.

It was a necklace.

The necklace pendant was a deep blue gemstone.

Shen Qiang immediately recalled the introduction to this kind of gemstone from the Doctor inheritance in his mind.

Concentration Stone.

Once imbued with True Yuan, it could produce an effect of concentration.

Glancing at the item's introduction, it was indeed the case.

Moreover, this Concentration Stone also had an Array etched onto it that could help the user focus, but Shen Qiang just chuckled at the rudimentary Array.

Because any high-end Alchemist would usually also be an Artifact Refiner.

The Medical Saint was naturally very skilled in this area; according to the records within the inheritance, apart from the Immortal Realm's number one craftsman, no one dared to claim that their refined Magic Artifacts were better than Medical Saint's.

A high-end Artifact Refiner, generally speaking, could also practice Alchemy, but usually, they could only refine some simple, fixed-formula Primary Level Elixir Pills.

The crucial point was, artifacts are meant to be used; even if they are of poor quality, at worst they are just not very convenient to use, but with Elixir Pills, a bad product could be deadly.

So, upon finding the Array etched on the Concentration Stone to be very crude and basic, it was natural for Shen Qiang to snort in disdain.

Unexpectedly, this scene was just caught by Ali.

It made her quite unhappy, "Hey, you, the newbie, what kind of look is that? Do you know what this is? This is a high-quality Concentration Stone worth 1,500 points, a remarkable treasure."

Shen Qiang became embarrassed, "Um, it's pretty good."

Seeing Shen Qiang concede begrudgingly, Ali felt somewhat triumphant, then excitedly said to Qian Shanxue, "Colonel, I now have 891 points. According to the current situation, it will probably take about a year to a year and a half to accumulate 1,500 points. Once I get this Concentration Stone, my on-site modeling ability will be even stronger."

Qian Shanxue, who was enjoying the delicacies, said coolly, "If it's really important to you, I could help you redeem it right now."

This statement slightly surprised Shen Qiang; after all, this thing required 1,500 points, and even for Qian Shanxue, it would take at least the completion of three five-star difficulty missions to earn enough.

Her willingness to offer help so readily made it seem like she was quite generous.

"No need, Ali wants to save up points by herself. Moreover, ever since becoming the Colonel's subordinate, my points increasing speed has skyrocketed. Before, I could only earn a few points a month, but after following the Colonel, I can now get close to a hundred points each month, something I wouldn't have dared even dream of before."

Hearing this, Shen Qiang was slightly surprised, but at the same time, he found it a bit boring.

Fortunately, he had his alchemy technique, otherwise, getting Star Moon's Protection would be like waiting for an eternity.

Seeing Shen Qiang's expression, Ali pouted unhappily, "Hey, kid, don't think that treating me to a meal means I'll acknowledge you. You should be grateful that you're with the Colonel, who can complete five-star difficulty tasks on his own."

"As her subordinates, whenever she completes a five-star difficulty task, it's as if we've automatically completed a one-star task, so you should take good care of us."

Shen Qiang laughed, "You mean to say, if the Colonel completes a five-star difficulty task, we'll also get fifty points?"

"Yes, do you get it, kid? I can tell, you're just a freeloader looking to ride on others' coattails, so you treating us is a given," she said

Looking at Ali's proud face, Shen Qiang wanted to laugh.

Let alone fifty points, five hundred points were nothing in Shen Qiang's eyes.

But there was no point in saying that out loud.

He closed the Ningbi Stone interface.

Ali saw that Star Moon's Protection was taken off the shelves among the three hottest items on the homepage, and she suddenly startled, urgently saying, "Colonel, Colonel, look quickly, Star Moon's Protection is off the shelves."

"Has Gan Chengzhi accumulated a hundred thousand points?" Qian Shanxue said very calmly, "He is a once-in-a-millennium genius. It's only natural for him to get Star Moon's Protection."

Ali's face went inexplicably red as she said coyly, "Yeah, yeah, he's so impressive, so handsome. With his assassination technique unequaled in the Dragon Group, how strong will he become after obtaining Star Moon's Protection? It's barely imaginable."

Shen Qiang frowned slightly from the side.

He had seen the name Gan Chengzhi before, on the Bounty Hunter platform.

His ranking seemed very high, but Shen Qiang couldn't quite remember.

However, seeing Ali's infatuated face, Shen Qiang knew she must really like this Gan Chengzhi guy.

But unfortunately for her, it wasn't Gan Chengzhi who bought Star Moon Protection; Shen Qiang claimed it.

"Eh, how could this be, his points are still in the eighties?"

As Shen Qiang pondered this, Ali, fiddling with her phone, became frantic, "Damn it! Who is the bastard that did this!"

Qian Shanxue, enjoying her meal, looked slightly surprised, "Gan Chengzhi's points are still there? Then it must have been one of the other few good at assassination who took it."

Ali was sweating profusely in her anxiety, "The younger generation still has their points, and those old powerhouses shouldn't be interested in that item, it's strange. Who did it, it's so hateful, that was clearly meant for Gan Chengzhi. Star Moon's Protection can only display its greatest effect in his hands."

"If I find out who stealthily replaced Star Moon's Protection, I won't let him off," Ali said, grinding her teeth in anger and with a vengeful glare, she turned to Qian Shanxue, "Colonel, what do you think? With Star Moon's Protection gone, how heartbroken must Gan Chengzhi be? He's been accumulating points for six years and has always been thought to be the most likely person to get Star Moon Protection."

Qian Shanxue said indifferently, "The mall is the fairest place. The best equipment goes to the best person. If someone took away Star Moon's Protection, it just proves that someone is better than him."

"But Gan Chengzhi is the best! His points are twice as many as the Colonel's! Unless it's those unlisted old monsters, no one from the younger generation could beat him!" Ali fumed.

And at that moment, Shen Qiang's phone rang.

"We're here, I hope your Gathering Qi Powder is ready."

Hearing the voice of Director Liu on the phone, Shen Qiang smiled, "I'm at the entrance of the Han City Cuisine, call me when you arrive."

After hanging up the phone, Shen Qiang smiled at Ali, who was red-faced with anger, "The world is vast, nothing is impossible. You think that what's-his-name orange juice is the best only because you haven't met someone more capable."
