Chapter 337 Arrival at Blaine's Hot Spring Shop!
"Oh! You guessed it so easily!"
Upon hearing Qingyuan's words, Xia Bo said with an incredulous expression.
Clearly, he was quite surprised that Qingyuan had guessed his identity so easily.
"It wasn't certain before, but it's certain now!"
Hearing Xia Bo's words, Qing Yuan said with a smile.
"At first, I only heard from Nurse Joy at the Pokémon Center that Blaine, the Gym Leader of Cinnabar City, couldn't stand the daily entertainment and started challenging the Gym's challengers!"
"So we temporarily closed the gym and started randomly asking people to guess riddles on the streets of Cinnabar Island!"
"I wasn't sure I was just trying to trick you, but I didn't expect..."
Upon hearing Xia Bo's words, Qing Yuan remained unfazed and retorted with his fabricated story.
Joey from Crimson Island hadn't told him anything about Blaine.
Mainly, he didn't want to drag things out with Xia Bo any longer, so he directly told her about the anime plot he had watched in his previous life.
"Didn't expect it to blow me out like that, did you!"
Upon hearing Qingyuan's words, Xia Bo took off his sunglasses and looked at Qingyuan with a mocking expression.
"That's really unexpected. I never imagined that someone as renowned as you, a dojo master, would actually be amusing people on the street!"
Looking at Uncle Xia in front of him, Qingyuan nodded seriously and said.
"Ah, this..."
Hearing this, Xia Bo was speechless for a moment; he had thought he could make Qing Yuan laugh.
"I wonder if I can challenge the Crimson Lotus Gym now!"
Looking at Blaine in front of him, Qingyuan took out Gengar's Poké Ball and asked Blaine with great interest.
"You've seen which dojo holds challenge matches at night!"
Looking at the enthusiastic Qingyuan in front of him, Xia Bo said in an annoyed tone.
Upon hearing this, Qingyuan took out his Pokédex to check the time before speaking to Xia Bo.
"It's only 5:30 now, although it gets dark earlier here on Red Lotus Island!"
"But strictly speaking, it should be afternoon now!"
After saying that, Qingyuan showed Xia Bo the Pokédex, indicating that he was not lying to him.
"No, I no longer run a dojo. I've opened an open-air hot spring instead!"
Looking at the Pokédex in Qingyuan's hand, Blaine, not to be outdone, said to Qingyuan.
Do you have any spare rooms?
Upon hearing this, Qingyuan's eyes immediately lit up as he asked Uncle Xia.
"Yes, I have……"
"Wait, what do you want to do?"
Upon hearing Qingyuan's words, Xia Bo replied casually.
However, as soon as he said it, he realized something was wrong and immediately looked at Qingyuan with a scrutinizing gaze.
He always felt that Qingyuan was hiding something bad.
"I didn't mean anything by it, I just couldn't find a room to stay in!"
"So, I'd like to stay overnight at your open-air hot spring!"
Upon hearing this, Qingyuan smiled innocently at Xia Bo and said...
"My outdoor hot spring is very expensive, are you sure you want to stay there?"
Hearing this, Uncle Xia glanced at Qingyuan and said.
"It doesn't matter, price is not an issue!"
Upon hearing this, Qingyuan immediately waved his hand and addressed Uncle Xia.
With his current wealth, he can easily afford to stay at a mere open-air hot spring.
"Okay, then you come with me!"
Upon hearing this, Uncle Xia nodded and greeted Qingyuan.
He then turned around and walked ahead to lead the way for Qingyuan.
"okay!"
Upon hearing this, Qingyuan responded and strode after Xia Bo.
"By the way, Uncle Xia, are you really not going to open a dojo anymore?"
"I finally collected seven badges, and I saved the Cinnabar Gym for last!"
"I never expected you wouldn't be running a dojo anymore!"
Following behind Xia Bo, Qingyuan spoke to him as they walked.
Upon hearing this, Blaine paused, then continued walking forward as if nothing had happened.
"What? Can't this old man even take a break?"
Xia Bo glanced back at Qing Yuan and said in an annoyed tone.
"That's not it, it's just a bit of a pity that he can't fight against the Fire Xia Bo, who was named after the Ice Liu Bo of the former Four Heavenly Kings of Chengdu!"
Hearing Xia Bo's words, Qing Yuan shook his head and said with some regret.
"You really want to challenge a powerful trainer?"
Upon hearing this, Xia Bo stopped and turned to Qing Yuan.
His tone had unconsciously taken on a somewhat inexplicable meaning.
"That's for sure. My companions and I have traveled for so long just to be able to spar with all the powerful trainers in the world!"
"Then defeat them and become the strongest trainer in the world!"
"Become a legendary Pokémon Master!"
Upon hearing this, Qingyuan did not hesitate at all and immediately spoke to Xia Bo with great enthusiasm.
Although he initially traveled only to become a gym leader and live a life of comfort.
However, after experiencing so many things, Qingyuan's ambition was gradually ignited.
His goals have changed repeatedly over time.
Right now, all he wants is to defeat Dan and smash his champion cape, covered in endorsements, onto himself.
Become the world's strongest trainer and ascend to the legendary realm of Pokémon Master.
"You're young but have quite the nerve. Young people shouldn't be so arrogant!"
Upon hearing this, Xia Bo stroked his gruesome beard and spoke to Qing Yuan.
"If young people aren't spirited, what kind of young people are they?"
Upon hearing this, Qingyuan reflexively used a famous quote from his past life's Brother Qiang.
"..."
Upon hearing this, Xia Bo felt as if he had choked.
However, when he looked into Qingyuan's ambitious eyes, he smiled knowingly.
"You can enjoy the hot springs at my shop tonight!"
"I'll be waiting for you in the lobby at eight o'clock tomorrow morning!"
After arriving at his own hot spring shop, Uncle Xia said something to Qingyuan.
He then disappeared from the store, leaving Qingyuan staring blankly at the storefront.
"Old man, you're really fast!"
"But doesn't such a big store have a single waiter?"
Where should I stay?
Looking at the shop in front of him, Qingyuan let out a roar that sounded like despair.
……
"Wuhu~"
"I must say, although it's not cheap, soaking in a hot spring is so relaxing!"
Inside Xia Bo's hot spring shop, Qingyuan lay comfortably in the hot spring and said.
"It really feels great, my whole body feels relaxed!"
Upon hearing Qingyuan's words, the Nine-Tailed Fox couldn't help but agree.
"By the way, aren't you a fire-type Pokémon? Why don't you mind soaking in hot springs?"
Upon hearing Nine-Tails' words, Qingyuan opened his eyes, glanced at Nine-Tails, and then looked at Gliscor and Charizard hiding beside the hot spring, asking with a puzzled expression.
Don't compare me to those noobs!
Hearing this, Nine-Tailed Fox glanced at Scorpion King and the others who were hiding on the shore and dared not come down to the hot spring, and said disdainfully.
