Chapter 82: The Cool and Casual Guy

“I understand. So, where are Pianyue-jie and Qi An now? Why haven’t I seen them?” Jiang Xianchuan asked, curiously surveying his surroundings. The room appeared somewhat simple, with some clutter piled up in the corners. The light streaming in through the windows made the room relatively bright.

At that moment, a clear voice chimed in, “Qi An-gege just told me he had some things to take care of, so he left first. And Pianyue-jie went out to find food.” It was Ji Tiantian standing beside him, her big eyes blinking as she looked at Jiang Xianchuan.

Jiang Xianchuan nodded slightly, indicating that he understood the situation. Then, he and Ji Tiantian quietly waited in the room. As time ticked by, just when the two were about to lose patience, familiar footsteps finally came from outside the door. Before long, Lin Pianyue’s beautiful figure appeared at the entrance.

“Little brother, you’re finally awake! We were so worried about you. Let big sister see, is there anywhere on your body that feels uncomfortable?” Lin Pianyue rushed to Jiang Xianchuan’s side as soon as she entered, her face filled with concern as she looked him up and down.

Jiang Xianchuan smiled and shook his head, indicating that he was fine. Seeing that Jiang Xianchuan was in good condition, Lin Pianyue breathed a slight sigh of relief, and then reached into the backpack behind her and took out a bag of bread.

“Sigh, the supplies that can be found nearby have basically been scavenged by others. I went to great lengths to only find this little bit. There’s no choice, we can only bring it back and share it,” Lin Pianyue sighed helplessly.

As soon as she finished speaking, a loud “glug-glug” sound broke the brief silence. It turned out that Ji Tiantian’s stomach was protesting. Seeing this, Lin Pianyue smiled apologetically at Ji Tiantian, saying, “Oh dear, I’m really sorry, Tiantian. I made you wait here hungry for so long.”

“It’s okay, jie-jie. Thank you for going out of your way to find food for me!” Ji Tiantian quickly waved her hand, a grateful smile on her face.

Immediately afterward, Lin Pianyue carefully tore open the bag of bread and divided it evenly into three portions, handing them to Jiang Xianchuan and Ji Tiantian respectively.

Jiang Xianchuan stared intently at the slightly dry bread in his hand, his gaze seeming to penetrate through it as if he wanted to see something. He stood there quietly, motionless, like a statue lost in deep thought.

Suddenly, he waved his arm, as if performing a magic trick, and directly took out several bottles of clear, transparent mineral water and some tightly packaged compressed biscuits from his space. Then, with a smile on his face, he distributed the food to Ji Tiantian and Lin Pianyue one by one.

When Lin Pianyue and Ji Tiantian saw the water and food that had appeared out of nowhere, both of their eyes widened, revealing incredibly surprised expressions. Especially Lin Pianyue, her originally beautiful eyes were now filled with confusion and puzzlement as she stared straight at Jiang Xianchuan, seemingly wanting to find the answer on his handsome face.

Faced with their astonished reactions, Jiang Xianchuan just felt a little baffled. He raised his eyebrows slightly, the corners of his mouth turning up in a faint smile as he said, “What’s wrong? Eat up, weren’t you two already saying you were hungry?”

Hearing this, Lin Pianyue was first stunned, then came back to her senses and stammered, “Little… little brother, what exactly is going on?” Clearly, she was very shocked that Jiang Xianchuan could so easily conjure up so much stuff.

Jiang Xianchuan still appeared very calm and collected. He shrugged and replied in a calm tone, “Didn’t I tell you before? I have a space-type ability, I can store and retrieve items at will.” After saying that, he even winked at Lin Pianyue, looking completely cool and casual, like it was nothing.

Looking at Jiang Xianchuan’s nonchalant attitude, Lin Pianyue immediately felt a wave of helplessness. She shook her head and muttered to herself, “This guy, he clearly has such an amazing ability, but he always acts like it’s the most ordinary thing in the world.”

Just then, Qi An, who had been out searching for clues, also rushed back. As soon as he saw that Jiang Xianchuan had woken up and was in reasonably good spirits, Qi An’s tense face immediately relaxed, and a bright smile instantly appeared on his face.

He ran to Jiang Xianchuan in three steps, grabbed his shoulders excitedly, and asked with concern, “Gege, you’re finally awake! I was so worried about you these past few days while you were unconscious. How do you feel now? Is there anywhere on your body that feels uncomfortable?” As he spoke, he looked Jiang Xianchuan up and down, afraid of missing any abnormalities.

Faced with Qi An’s rapid-fire questions, Jiang Xianchuan simply smiled slightly and shook his head gently, indicating that he was fine. Seeing this, Qi An’s heart, which had been hanging in the air, was finally completely relieved.

“Gege, what are your specific plans next?” Qi An looked at Jiang Xianchuan with a concerned expression and asked softly. Jiang Xianchuan’s eyes were firm, and he said without hesitation, “I want to find Li Lingyu and the others first, and then kill all those hateful ability snatchers, leave none alive!” His words revealed a sense of determination and ruthlessness.

Hearing Jiang Xianchuan’s harsh reply, Qi An did not show the slightest fear, but instead firmly stated, “Gege, no matter how difficult the road ahead, I will always be with you.” Lin Pianyue also nodded quickly in agreement, “Yes, I will fight alongside you too!” At this time, even the young Ji Tiantian did not want to be outdone, and raised her pair of pink, tender hands high, shouting, “I want to help too!”

Seeing everyone so united, Jiang Xianchuan couldn’t help but feel a surge of emotion and joy in his heart. But when he thought that he still didn’t know where Li Lingyu and the others were, the flame of hope he had just ignited instantly dimmed again, his brows furrowed tightly together, and a hint of disappointment appeared on his face.

At this moment, the gentle and considerate Qi An stepped forward, gently smoothed Jiang Xianchuan’s furrowed brows, and softly comforted him, “Gege, how could you forget my skill? I can sense the presence of other people.” Jiang Xianchuan’s eyes flashed with surprise, and he asked incredulously, “Really? That’s great!” Qi An smiled and nodded, then said, “But today we’ve also been running around and working hard all day. Why don’t we rest well for one night, recharge our batteries, and then set off to find them tomorrow?” Jiang Xianchuan thought it made a lot of sense, so he happily agreed, “Okay, let’s do as you say.”
