133: The resentful Zhang Xiaoli

Qin Shilei explained, "Although An Qian and I are both group leaders, these are just loose teams that have been placed under our names due to the military's authority."

"These teams have very little cohesion; once a major danger appears, they might scatter."

"It's time for our Panshi Battle Group to be established."

In fact, he also had an idea in his mind: to set up his main base in the space where the thunder spirit stone was discovered.

It's just that it was too close to the crack of the Other World, making it too dangerous.

He needed to be able to change the entrance and exit of that space before he could safely set up the main base there.

"We really should form our own team," Zhang Qiang echoed.

He Kaige and the others also nodded in agreement.

"So, should we put out a sign and recruit people from outside, or directly recruit from the current 007 and 018 Corps?" An Qian asked.

"First, recruit people from within the Corps; after all, we have a certain understanding of them." Qin Shilei had already thought about this question.

"Then I'll gather the people from the Corps tomorrow," Zhang Qiang said.

Everyone then discussed the specific selection criteria, as well as the battle group's rules and development plan.

Unconsciously, it was midnight when everyone stopped talking and returned to their rooms to rest.

Not long after, Qin Shilei tiptoed and knocked on An Qian's door again.

"Could it be that you have another treasure chest to open?" An Qian asked with shining eyes when she opened the door and saw Qin Shilei.

"Hehe," Qin Shilei chuckled, slipped into the room, and then locked the door.

"Not opening a treasure chest? Then I'm going to rest, you should go back quickly."

Looking at the smile on Qin Shilei's lips, An Qian suddenly seemed to understand his intention, her face flushed, and she tried to push him out of the room.

"An Qian, I almost thought I would never see you again today." Qin Shilei stretched out his hands and wrapped them around An Qian's slender waist.

"Me too; at that time, I felt like my soul was lost." An Qian also reached out and hugged Qin Shilei, resting her head on his sturdy chest.

"Lift your head, let me look at you properly again." Qin Shilei sniffed the fragrance of An Qian's hair and whispered.

An Qian looked up at Qin Shilei, but unexpectedly, he kissed her.

Inexperienced, An Qian quickly got lost in Qin Shilei's passionate kiss.

Unconsciously, clothes slipped, and the room became filled with spring colors.

........

"Get up, otherwise people will laugh at us." Qin Shilei scratched An Qian's nose, while his other hand moved around under the covers.

"Don't move, it still hurts." Seeing that she couldn't pretend to be asleep, An Qian had to speak up to stop his left hand from moving around.

She paused, then added, "You go out first, I'll be down in a bit."

"Hehe," Qin Shilei chuckled, "I see you're not convenient, how about I help you get dressed?"

"Stop messing around, hurry up and go out, or I'll ignore you."

In broad daylight, the shy An Qian kept urging Qin Shilei to leave quickly.

Qin Shilei had no choice but to give up his morning exercise idea and left the room first.

As soon as he opened the door, he happened to see Zhang Xiaoli coming out of the adjacent room.

"Morning!" Qin Shilei greeted her as if nothing had happened.

"Mm." Zhang Xiaoli gave Qin Shilei a resentful look and then prepared to turn and go downstairs.

Qin Shilei quickly stepped forward, ready to give her a deep kiss.

"Go away, go away," Zhang Xiaoli said, feigning a look of disgust, "You haven't even brushed your teeth, and you want to kiss me."

Qin Shilei was drenched in sweat.

This was indeed disrespectful to her.

He wanted to let go of her and go back to his room to wash up.

However, Qin Shilei found that Zhang Xiaoli's hands, wrapped around his lower back, showed no sign of letting go.

"I don't have bad breath, just one little kiss." Qin Shilei lowered his head and kissed her forehead.

Then her nose, and she still hadn't let go of his hands.

He had no choice but to kiss those tempting red lips.

Qin Shilei lightly kissed her, then let go, leaning close to her ear and whispering, "Remember to open the door for me tonight."

Zhang Xiaoli's face immediately flushed, and she pouted, "Hmph, full of bad thoughts, don't dream about it."

After saying that, she let go of Qin Shilei and quickly walked downstairs.

After breakfast with everyone, Qin Shilei rode Xiaojiang alone and flew towards the cave.

Zhang Qiang and the others went to gather the Corps personnel so that Qin Shilei could form the Panshi Battle Group upon his return.

Qin Shilei jumped from Xiaojiang into the valley below, but he felt something was amiss.

Suddenly, a whooshing sound came from behind him.

Qin Shilei flashed to the right, turned around, and indeed, a Scythe Beetle had lunged from his previous position.

Not far away, another Scythe Beetle had just poked its head out of the Other World cave.

"These Scythe Beetles are here again."

Qin Shilei frowned, drew his Blood Soul, rushed over, and quickly hacked both Scythe Beetles to death.

Immediately after, four more Scythe Beetles crawled out of the cave.

Qin Shilei spent some effort, killing them one by one.

Just as he thought this would be a large-scale invasion of Scythe Beetles, no more Scythe Beetles emerged from the cave.

Qin Shilei rode Xiaojiang back into the city, circled around, and used his Qiankun Ring to collect dozens of sturdy cars.

He then climbed down the rope to the very bottom of the cave again, finding that the mountain wall next to where he had placed the cars last time had been hollowed out.

Those Scythe Beetles had bypassed the cars by going through this hole.

This time, with ample materials, Qin Shilei blocked the surroundings tightly, then, while climbing up, he continued to use cars to block the entire cave.

Half an hour later, Qin Shilei finally used cars to block the entire hundred-meter-long cave.

"It won't be so easy to get through this time, will it?"

Actually, the best method would be to pour concrete into the entire cave, but that wasn't possible now, so this temporary solution had to suffice.

With this matter concluded, Qin Shilei turned and walked towards the nearby cave.

Upon reaching the deepest part of the cave, Qin Shilei took out the thunder spirit stone and opened the light door to enter.

Relying on his connection with the thunder spirit stone, Qin Shilei tried to move the light door.

He struggled for a long time, but there was no effect.

Qin Shilei then passed through the light door and entered the independent space inside.

This time, he still randomly appeared in the bamboo forest. He took out the thunder spirit stone again and tried to open the light door, but again, there was no reaction.

Qin Shilei had no choice but to run to the top of the mountain, take out the thunder spirit stone again, and this time the light door opened smoothly.

He tried to control the light door from here, but it also had no effect.

He didn't know if he hadn't mastered the method yet, or if this light door could only be opened in this specific location?

Passing through the light, he appeared in the cave again.

【Do you want to refresh the entries?】

【Refresh.】

Invisibility (Green): The light door becomes ethereal and invisible, existing imperceptibly to the naked eye.

Shrink (Green): The light door shrinks by half.

Move (Red): The light door can be moved ten meters freely each day.

Qin Shilei's eyes lit up; this meant he could move the light door to a safer place.

However, ten meters a day was too little and not very practical.

After fixing the 'Move' entry, Qin Shilei refreshed again.

This time, 'Shrink', 'Ethereal', and 'Defense Aura' appeared.

For now, this will do. I'll refresh more in the future and also study the thunder spirit orb more.

I'll strive to truly master this independent space as soon as possible.
