Arriving at the hotel, Chen Tianmin and Qiu Hongguang were sitting in the room discussing something.

Seeing Chen Yang and He Xiran arrive, the two hurriedly stood up.

"Xiran, you’re finally back. Where did you go all day yesterday? Were you with Yang Zi the whole time?" Chen Tianmin asked with concern.

He didn’t notice He Xiran hadn’t returned last night and just discovered it now.

He was about to call Chen Yang to check if He Xiran was with him, but He Xiran returned with Chen Yang.

"Uncle, I was at Chen Yang’s house all day yesterday. Don’t worry, I behaved and didn’t run off on my own," He Xiran answered happily.

"No running off? Then why didn’t you come back all day?" Chen Tianmin’s expression suddenly turned a bit strange as he looked at Chen Yang and then at He Xiran.

Initially, He Xiran didn’t realize what he meant, but when she did, her face instantly turned beet-red.

"Uncle! What are you thinking? It’s not what you think. I was at Chen Yang’s house, keeping company with Little Flower!" He Xiran hurried over to explain.

Seeing He Xiran’s embarrassment, Chen Tianmin couldn’t help but burst into laughter.

"Little Flower? What Little Flower?" Chen Tianmin laughed and asked.

"It’s a mountain cat," He Xiran briefly recounted the events of yesterday.

Including the reason she didn’t come back last night.

After listening, Chen Tianmin and Qiu Hongguang understood.

They were also amused by He Xiran.

"Xiran, you sure went hard on it, breaking the mountain cat’s spine? That’s not like your usual style," Chen Tianmin teased with a smile.

He Xiran’s face turned red again: "How was I supposed to know Little Flower was so fragile? I didn’t even use full force."

"Good thing you didn’t, otherwise Little Flower would have been beaten to death by you," Chen Yang chimed in with a laugh.

"Hahaha..."

Chen Tianmin and Qiu Hongguang laughed again.

Making He Xiran’s face grow hot, turning a bright red.

"Hmph, I’m ignoring you all, you’re teaming up to make fun of me."

Leaving a remark, she turned and ran away.

"Haha..."

Another laugh, then Chen Tianmin invited Chen Yang to sit down and discuss the current situation.

Over the past few days, the situation outside was very stable.

This indicated that their hiding in Liuhe Village was very secretive, with no trace for Blood Bat Hall to detect.

"Uncle, although nothing has happened recently, you should still stay indoors to be safe. Wait until the dojo expansion is completed before venturing out," Chen Yang said.

Blood Bat Hall is pervasive. For safety, staying inside is wise.

Chen Tianmin naturally understood this principle.

He nodded and agreed.

"Of course, I understand. Without urgent matters, we’ll exercise caution and not easily leave the hotel, plus everyone lacks energy to wander around. That battle left us all weak, and we need a safe stable place to recover," Chen Tianmin said.

Chen Yang nodded at his words: "If you can stay, that’s best. I’ll provide resources within the hotel, so you can recover in peace."

As he spoke, Chen Yang handed over the newly refined Elixir to Chen Tianmin.

"Uncle, these are Elixirs, distribute them among everyone today, they’re beneficial for recovery," Chen Yang said.

Seeing Chen Yang hand over the Elixirs, Chen Tianmin and Qiu Hongguang’s expressions were a bit complicated and embarrassed.

They had already consumed a large amount of Chen Yang’s resources during this period.

Seventy or eighty Spirit Stones, hundreds of Elixirs.

Such a significant batch of resources could easily be exchanged for billions.

How could they still have the face to continue taking from Chen Yang?

"Uncle, what’s on your mind? Are you going to be polite again?" Chen Yang noticed Chen Tianmin’s unusual expression.

Chen Tianmin smiled awkwardly.

"Yang Zi, given our relationship, there’s no need for formalities, but consuming your resources long-term doesn’t feel right to us," Chen Tianmin said with a sheepish smile.

"Yes, Chen Yang, our alliance has been greatly aided by you, we really can’t continue taking your resources," Qiu Hongguang added.

"Uncle, Elder Qiu, we agreed these resources are lent, pay back when your alliance strengthens," Chen Yang quickly said.

"While saying that, the brothers feel uneasy," Qiu Hongguang said.

At this, Chen Yang was somewhat at a loss for words.

"Yang Zi, we appreciate your thoughtfulness, but you should understand the brothers’ feelings. We’re uncomfortable consuming your resources; yesterday we decided to use the alliance’s remaining resources to sustain development," Chen Tianmin said.

"Last resources?" Chen Yang looked at Chen Tianmin.

Chen Tianmin nodded, "Yes, Elder Qiu and I remembered the Alliance Hierarch had left some resources in a certain place for emergencies, now it’s time to use them."

"But I’ll need to trouble you to help retrieve them."

After thinking briefly, Chen Yang found it feasible.

His continued support made Uncle and the others uneasy, if they could have their own resources.

Helping retrieve them was naturally more fitting.

"If so, that’s fine, but you must accept these Elixirs, other matters will be handled once I’ve retrieved the resources," Chen Yang nodded in agreement.
