West City.

These days are unlike the past, as Earth's fifth Supreme Strong has emerged from West City, elevating its status dramatically.

With the Federation Main City reduced to ruins and the Twelve Families now pledging allegiance to Qin Shou, resources have been heavily redirected, allowing West City's overall strength to accelerate rapidly, almost poised to replace the Federation Main City.

During this time, the three public leaders of West City—Yu Shusheng, Qiao Jianshan, and Zuo Dahong—were so overjoyed they would wake up laughing from their dreams.

After returning from Kunlun Mountain, Qin Shou brought his parents and others back to West City.

Inside the room, Qin Shou glanced at Long Xia and the others before waving his hand to retrieve a rice cooker containing Light and Dark Elves.

"Lao Qin, did you call us here just to watch you cook?" Long Xia asked with a peculiar expression.

Qin Shou rolled his eyes, "Do I look like someone so idle?"

"Then what's the meaning of this?" Long Xia was momentarily stunned.

Qin Shou explained, "Inside this cooker are Light Energy Elves and Dark Elves. Absorbing their energy will not only assimilate your physiques but also quickly promote you to the Unbreakable Realm. Additionally, it will amplify the effectiveness of using the Giant Stone Statues, achieving combat power at the Unbreakable Realm Ninth Star."

Upon hearing this, Long Xia and the others widened their eyes in disbelief.

"How is that possible? Using a Giant Stone Statue at Unbreakable Realm One Star to achieve Unbreakable Realm Ninth Star combat power?" Yu Shusheng expressed his skepticism.

"Brother Qin, you're not tricking us, right? Is this thing really that miraculous?"

Wang Sheng's mouth expressed doubt, but his face was full of excitement, clearly already prepared in his heart.

The Four Little Saints reacted similarly.

Qin Shou chuckled, "The Giant Stone Statues you currently have wouldn't be able to achieve that. Hand them over to me." He extended his hand.

Without hesitation, everyone handed over their respective Light Energy Devices to Qin Shou.

The Light Energy Devices from the Four Little Saints didn't need enhancement, as they had already been previously upgraded.

Qin Shou accepted the Light Energy Devices from Long Xia and the others, then materialized the Divine Light Stick in his hand, activating the Magic Mirror Core within. He replicated 49% of the Light Energy Converter into the devices.

Soon after, the golden Divine Light Stick transformed into black, and he replicated 49% of the Dark Energy Converter into the Dark Devices.

Now that Qin Shou possessed Demigod Realm strength, he no longer needed to conceal the Dark Giant Stone Statue.

The Light and Dark Devices erupted with even more concentrated Light and Dark Energy, and the Giant Stone Statues within were visibly strengthened.

Seeing this, everyone gazed at Qin Shou with shock and awe.

"Lao Qin, you... it really was you!"

Long Xia was at a loss for words. Although he had suspected it earlier, learning the truth still left him incredulous.

Beside them, Wang Sheng burst into laughter: "Hahaha, I knew it! The Giant Stone Statues must be Brother Qin's masterpiece."

Xu Xin added, "It's not just the Giant Stone Statues. I suppose the Knight Armor was also created by Brother Qin using the Spine Eater Gu Gene."

Yu Shusheng's face twitched with astonishment, "Classmate Qin Shou, you started planning all this three years ago, didn't you!"

Long Xia punched Qin Shou lightly, grinning, "You sly guy, keeping this from us for so long."

Qin Shou shrugged, "Can't help it, I'm just too brilliant. If I told you, you'd all be jealous."

Long Xia was speechless.

"So what's your plan now?" Long Xia asked again.

Qin Shou replied, "In a few days, I'll take a trip to the interstellar battlefield. After your strength improves, West City and Mechanical Main City will rely on you all temporarily.

Also, let me introduce some new friends."

As he spoke, two figures—one in white and one in black—stepped out from the room.

Pointing to the black-robed girl, Qin Shou introduced, "This is Sika, a late-stage princess syndrome patient and the wielder of the Dark Giant Stone Statue."

Then, pulling the white-robed girl closer, he said, "This is Lei, the wielder of the Light Energy Giant Stone Statue. In the future, if you're unsure about anything big or small, you can ask her. Her ability is a bit unique. She's... well, just trust me, you can rely on her."

Qin Shou refrained from mentioning Lei's telepathy ability; otherwise, she'd probably end up friendless.

Everyone glanced at Sika and Lei with peculiar expressions.

"Lao Qin, not bad, huh? Two at once? Aren't you afraid Xiao Bai will get jealous?"

Long Xia leaned in close to Qin Shou, raising his eyebrows with a smirk and speaking in a low voice.

Qin Shou glared, "Who allowed you to call her Xiao Bai?"

Long Xia: "..."

Amid the introductions, Sika curiously explored the furniture in the room, unusually not clinging to Qin Shou.

Standing beside Qin Shou, Long Xia noticed this and asked curiously, "Lao Qin, where did you find this girl? She's quite good-looking, with exceptional poise, but she's like a... uh, like a curious kid. Hasn't even seen a light bulb before."

"She's a bona fide princess, so watch your words, will you," Qin Shou said flatly.

"A princess?"

Long Xia clicked his tongue, "The monarchy fell ages ago. Princess? Who are you trying to fool?"

Suddenly, Sika sharply turned her head, and Long Xia shivered, his legs trembling.

"Oh man, that presence... we commoners can't handle it."

Qin Shou rolled his eyes, "I told you so. And besides, Sika and Lei both brought their personal guards. During my time away from Earth, they'll hold the fort in West City. Don't cause trouble for them, or I won't save you."

"Guards? How many could they possibly have? With the Giant Stone Statues in hand, I might not even fear them..."

"Stop right there. While their guards aren't many, they also have Giant Stone Statues, and their strength rivals that of the Unbreakable Realm Ninth Star."

"Uh... I'll go home to absorb Light Energy Elves and train hard."

"Go ahead. Once I return from the interstellar battlefield, I'll give you a batch of Giant Stone Statues so you can build your own group of followers and show off."

With Mirror Planet joining the interstellar battlefield as Earth's opposing side, confrontation was inevitable.

If lucky enough to encounter the Magic Mirror Clan, acquiring more Magic Mirror Fragments could create another batch of Giant Stone Statues.

"Hahaha, Lao Qin, you're the best."
