"You, go get him a set of Demon Armor." No one expected that Jing Li would point his knife towards the distant Sha Chu and shout.
"No need." Li Xiu tore off the already ragged Demon Eye Magic Armor from his body and gripped the Spiritual Mace in his hand.
"I want to kill you wearing Demon Armor; as you are now, I'm not interested." Jing Li suddenly swung his knife at Sha Chu.
The Sword Light Slash landed on the ground in front of Sha Chu, carving a deep trench: "Did you not hear me tell you to get the Demon Armor?"
"It doesn't matter whether I have the Demon Armor or not; there's no need for such a fuss." Li Xiu spoke as he gripped the Spiritual Mace and walked towards Jing Li.
Jing Li frowned as he watched Li Xiu approach, and just as Li Xiu was about to reach him, Jing Li suddenly turned, sheathed his knife, and walked away.
"Next time, when you're wearing Demon Armor, I will come to kill you." With that, Jing Li left without looking back.
"This guy is really strange, picking and choosing who to kill." Li Xiu glanced at the already tattered Demon Eye Magic Armor on the ground: "This actually saves me the trouble; no need to repair it now."
"It's quite a miracle you survived under Jing Li's blade." Sha Chu walked over and said, watching Jing Li's retreating figure.
"Who is he exactly? I've never heard of anyone like him in the Four Great Families or the Six Groups; with abilities like his, he should be at the Commander Level, yet he's so unknown." Li Xiu now questioned about Jing Li's background.
"He was a Commander for a few days before, but it was brief, and now he's not." Sha Chu explained Jing Li's background.
"He's really a ruthless character." Li Xiu shook his head, "Take those scraps with you, let's head to the Demon Armor group; I need to get another set of Demon Armor."
"You'll need to get another set; Changshengtian's Demon Armor is quite formidable, being able to contend with someone at Jing Li's level; you should carry several sets with you." Sha Chu commented while picking up the scraps on the ground: "Jing Li will be back, and next time he won't leave so easily."
"Things always need to be resolved." Li Xiu didn't say anything more and, after Sha Chu gathered the scraps, mounted the Pegasus and headed straight to the research institute.
The Demon Eye Magic Armor is still not strong enough, inferior to the Divine Spirit Magic Armor; if it were the Divine Spirit Magic Armor, it might hold out until he could kill Jing Li.
Of course, using that Spiritual Mace might make it a bit simpler.
The reason Li Xiu is reluctant to use the Spiritual Mace easily is not because he doesn't want to, but because when using the Spiritual Mace, the "spiritual" character on it is certain to shine, and if the President of Changshengtian found out, Li Xiu worried he might be mistaken for the "spiritual" character in the Divining Celestial Secret.
Moreover, this thing doesn't have Demonic Light and can only be used in close-range combat, which is quite inconvenient to use.
Therefore, unless it's a matter of life and death, Li Xiu prefers not to use the Spiritual Mace in front of others.
Upon arriving at the research institute, Lei Qingfeng and Qiu Tianyu immediately came up to him.
"Commander, Professor Xu has been eagerly anticipating your visit, there are some issues with the Divine Spirit Magic Armor that need your input to resolve..." Qiu Tianyu said.
"Let's not talk about that now, I need to change into a new set of armor." Li Xiu gestured for Sha Chu to place the pile of scraps on the floor.
"What is this?" Qiu Tianyu and Lei Qingfeng were both taken aback, not knowing what this pile of ragged things was.
"Demon Eye Magic Armor." Li Xiu stated.
Qiu Tianyu and Lei Qingfeng's eyes widened immediately: "This is Demon Eye Magic Armor?"
They couldn't believe this pile of trash could be Demon Eye Magic Armor, thinking Li Xiu was joking.
"Yes, it's the Demon Eye Magic Armor, it's damaged, and I need to replace it with a new set." Li Xiu said.
Seeing Li Xiu wasn't joking, the two quickly rummaged through the pile of scraps, finally recognizing it and truly realizing it was the Demon Eye Magic Armor.
"Commander... how did the Demon Eye Magic Armor become like this..." Qiu Tianyu cautiously asked.
"I had a fight with someone, and the armor got damaged." Li Xiu said while walking towards the research institute's warehouse.
He had already decided which set of armor he wanted; that particular set might allow him to last longer in battle.
"A fight with someone could damage the armor this badly?" Lei Qingfeng and Qiu Tianyu could hardly believe it but dared only to think about it silently.
"Commander, who did you fight with?" Lei Qingfeng asked.
"Jing Li." Li Xiu casually replied.
"Jing Li!" Lei Qingfeng and Qiu Tianyu's eyes widened, looking at Li Xiu in disbelief, "You fought Jing Li and came back alive?"
"Nonsense, can I come back if I'm dead?" Li Xiu pointed at the warehouse door and said, "Open the door."
"Commander... isn't this inappropriate... the Demon Eye Magic Armor isn't even yours, changing it like this doesn't seem right?" Qiu Tianyu said with a wry smile.
"I'm still the Commander of the Technician Group; you took the Divine Spirit Magic Armor for research, and the Demon Eye Magic Armor is damaged; I don't even have a set of armor on me, is that reasonable?" Li Xiu glared at him.
Qiu Tianyu helplessly opened the warehouse door and walked in with Li Xiu.
Without hesitation, Li Xiu walked to the innermost row of armors, grabbed one of them, and turned to leave.
Previously, when they introduced these armors, Li Xiu hesitated between Divine Spirit Magic Armor and this set; now was the perfect time to choose this one.
Those other ones like the Thousand-Handed Guanyin, Suicide Bomber, and Artificial No. 13 didn't seem reliable; the Furnace Guardian seemed more dependable.
The Furnace Guardian didn't have remarkable other features, but its material was incredibly resilient; it was said to be made of some nearly uncuttable Super Spirit Material, forged in a high-temperature furnace.
The entire molding process of this set of armor was completed in that high-temperature furnace, resulting in the Furnace Guardian being like a solid block of iron after being forged, unable to be activated or dismantled, not even smashed open, which is why the Super Spirit Demon Core and Super Spirit Gemstone inside haven't been extracted yet.
Li Xiu intended to use this armor to battle Jing Li once again; not dealing with Jing Li is an ongoing problem.
