’The saints are watching too, huh? ’ he thought.

The pill easily crossed 50% and slowly went up to stop at around 67%.

Liang Qiu nodded in amazement as such a high level was not something people could possibly make without having a lot of talent.

”Another one! ” Han Daiyu said and picked another pill in front of them.

72%.

This was much better than the previous pill.

”Another one! ”

69%.

”And another one! ”

71%.

They checked about 7 or 8 pills in total before deciding to stop.

Alex smiled and took back all the pills.
He looked forward and saw a thoughtful expression on Liang Qiu ’s face.
Even Han Daiyu wasn ’t her usual self.

Then, something appeared in front of Liang Qiu who looked toward Alex as she said, ”Here. ”

Alex took whatever it was without thinking and saw that it was a pair of earrings.

There was a twisted hook on one side, followed by an amber-like gem hanging on each of the earrings.

Alex looked at the most golden ring and asked, ”is this…? ”

”Your payment you requested, ” she said.


Alex finally gave a proper look at the earrings and asked, ”Defensive mental artifact? ”

Liang Qiu nodded.

”But, I haven ’t done anything for you yet, ” Alex said as he handed it back to her.
”I can ’t accept my payment without having done my part. ”

”No, please take it.
I insist, ” Liang Qiu said.

Alex was about to refuse when he saw something else appear in front of him.
This time, there were 2 items.

One was a regular-looking brown-colored armor that was thin enough to wear under his robes, and another one was surprisingly a circular concave shield with nowhere to hold it.

Han Daiyu was the one that brought those two items out, so she started explaining.

”This armor is capable of stopping any attacks under the True Emperor realm.
For True Emperor realm, it can stop about 3 attacks before it becomes unusable, ” she said.

”This shield on the other hand can stop all attacks under the True Emperor realm, but will not stop any attacks over that.
What it can do, however, is the ability to create a barrier around you that can stop Omni-directional attacks. ”

”You may choose whichever one you like, ” Han Daiyu said.

”Sister Daiyu, as I was explaining to sister Liang, I cannot take it since I haven ’t provided my services yet.
Please let me take— ”

”You are being annoying, young man.
If they give you something, take it, ” Han Hongqi arrived next to him and said.

Then he slumped onto the deck and put his arm around Alex.
However, to Alex, it felt like a mountain had come down upon him.

He slouched a little before managing to hold on.
Han Daiyu gave a cold glare to her uncle who let go of Alex ’s shoulders and just laughed.

”Anyway, choose one, ” Han Hongqi said.
”If you don ’t, I will take offense. ”

Alex sighed.
”Very well, ” he said.
”The armor then. ”

”Oh, ” Quan gave a surprised exclamation as he sat down on the other side of Alex.
”Why not the shield? It can block more than just your chest, you know? ”


Alex chuckled a little and lifted his left arm to make them notice it.

”So? ” Hongqi asked.
”You don ’t need to have a hand to use that shield. ”

”Eh? I don ’t? ” Alex looked surprised.

”No, ” Hongqi pulled the shield to his hand and poured some Qi into it.
Then, the shield started hovering in front of him.

”With a single thought, you can move it around you, ” he said.

Just then, Alex saw something white strike the shield and a brown barrier about double the size of the shield appeared in front of it.

”Or, you can fully activate it… and, ” as Hongqi poured in more Qi, something flashed in front of them and Hongqi was entirely covered in the shield ’s barrier, while the shield itself freely moved inside of it.

”If you do take a very strong attack, it ’s the barrier that will break, not the shield itself, which is different from the other armor which takes the damage physically, ” Hongqi explained.

”I suggest you take the shield, young man.
Something like protecting against True Emperor or higher attacks can be done with talismans too, ” Shangguan Quan said from the side.

Alex nodded.
”Thank you for the information, seniors.
Then, if you don ’t mind, I will take the shield, ” he said.

”Haha! Good, ” Hongqi said and passed along the shield.

”Keep the earrings too, ” Shangguan Quan said and Alex nodded.

Suddenly, Alex was 2 artifacts richer than he had been moments ago.
