However, no matter what Ah Jin had probed, she had already guessed one thing that was almost certain!
Ah Jin is the successor of "Missing One"!
"Missing a Skill" is a Lu Ban technique, but this technique is very unpredictable. It is powerful, but it can also cause great harm.
The reason it is called "Missing a Body" is that anyone who inherits this book must choose one of the following: widowed, orphaned, lonely, disabled, or widowed!
Ah Jin is definitely not disabled, but being widowed, widowed, orphaned, or alone is not a good thing.
The cat frowned deeply.
Bai looked at the cat and saw her sit on the wicker chair, fiddling with the box. Soon, he heard a slight clicking sound, and the box flexibly transformed and was opened!
Bai Jiang's eyes flickered slightly.
In the middle of the box, a small bamboo slip was held up. The cat looked at it and saw that it contained a small map.
Just like the previous box, the cat wasn't surprised at all; she had already guessed that this box did indeed contain a map.
Suddenly, the cat said, "Besides the air vent and the shock vent, someone else can open this box."
Bai Jiang instinctively said, "Impossible!"
The cat replied, "I said it exists, so it exists."
The previous box had clearly been opened.
"Besides Ah Jin, has anyone else been interested in this box?"
Bai thought it over carefully and said definitively, "No." After a pause, he added, "My senior brother tried to take it from me, but he was after the sect leader's seal, not the box."
Cat fell into deep thought, wondering why Ah Jin was so persistent in finding the Gate of Shock... wondering if Ah Jin had really mastered the missing element... and was even thinking about the Eight Gates Secret Technique...
Clearly, whoever finds all eight boxes first will be the first to acquire the eight secret techniques.
After a while, the cat suddenly chuckled. She looked at Bai Jiang and asked, "You're from the Gate of Justice, with a wide network of information. Have you ever heard of any other place where you can find a box like this?"
Bai Jiang said, "I have never heard of that. Among the Eight Gates, no one usually provokes anyone related to Lu Ban's skills."
The cat said, "Then you have a mission. After you recover, go and find out where the box is. Tell me if you have any news."
Bai Jiang didn't ask many questions and simply nodded, "Yes."
After speaking, Bai looked at Maomao, only to see her slowly and methodically restore the Luban Box to its original state. Under the moonlight, her well-behaved little face had an indescribable mystery.
Just a moment ago... he seemed to sense some undisguised danger, which was terrifying, just like... just like the way she looked when she sent that group of people to their deaths that night.
Cat stood up, but suddenly picked a peach from her spatial storage and tossed it to Bai Jiang.
"You've been practicing so hard, let me give you some extra nutrition."
Bai caught it instinctively, completely unaware of where the cat had come from.
After the cat left, he stared at the peach in his hand. Although he wasn't a foodie, he couldn't help but drool when he looked at it. He took a bite, and the peach seemed to be made of water, melting in his mouth like drinking water!
Most importantly, he felt as if he was instantly enveloped by a vast amount of spiritual energy, so comfortable that he was momentarily stunned.
Coming to his senses, he looked at the cat in surprise. This peach... was clearly not in the same league as the spiritual plants in the vegetable garden. It was like heaven and earth!
"Get well soon, I need to get things done," the cat said.
Upon hearing this, Bai Jiang ate the peach in his hand in a few bites, leaving only the pit, but he couldn't bear to throw it away.
Filled with rich spiritual energy, Bai Jiang continued meditating.
Cat slowly walked back to the bedroom, but she was thinking, since so many people wanted to snatch the Eight Gates Secret Technique, why didn't she snatch it first!
That also includes the secret techniques of the Shock Sect. Even if she doesn't need them, she still wants to snatch them back for Jiu Yunchi and Jiu Yebai.
Also, since Ah Jin is so interested, at worst she can just give it to Ah Jin in the end!
However, that damn "Missing One Skill" annoyed Maomao a bit; she didn't want Ajin to be practicing that skill.
As for what Ah Jin was thinking, Maomao didn't really want to know. She could never be Ah Jin's enemy, and she believed that Ah Jin wouldn't scheme against her. If Ah Jin insisted on giving her these boxes, then she would accept them!
Anyway, she could have kept it better.
...
Nothing was said that night.
The cat only slept for a little over three hours. After getting up, it heard clanging and banging noises downstairs as soon as it left the bedroom.
She stood on the second floor, watching the busy movers below carrying boxes into the villa.
Jiu Yunchi also came out. He was fastening his cufflinks and turning his head to look at the cat.
The cat asked him, "What did you buy?"
Jiu Yunchi said, "No."
Is that Jiuyebai?
Why are you making a fuss so early?
Just then, a girl shouted, "Be gentle! These are musical instruments; they can't withstand being dropped!"
The cat raised an eyebrow; the voice seemed familiar.
Immediately afterwards, the girl walked into the villa, put her hands on her hips, looked at her belongings, suddenly looked up, saw the people upstairs, immediately laughed, opened her arms as if to hug them, and called out:
"Big brother! I'm back!"
Jiu Yunchi frowned.
The cat curled its lips into a smile. "Big brother?"
At that moment, the girl seemed to see the cat too. She stared at it intently, even blinking, and after confirming she wasn't mistaken, she exclaimed in shock:
"It's you! What are you doing in my house!"
Jiu Yunchi walked down.
The cat also came downstairs.
The girl ran over, circled the cat once, and then suddenly looked at Jiu Yunchi, "Big brother! She wouldn't happen to be your girlfriend, would she!"
Jiu Yunchi gave her a cold look. "Jiu Nanxun, are you asking for a beating?"
The girl... Becky, also known as Kunan Kaoru, shivered—a shiver she hadn't felt in a long time!
Having been away from home for so many years, she thought she was immune to her older brother's power, but now she realizes that she was naive!
"Heh, heh..." Jiu Nanxun chuckled dryly, then looked at the cat, "What a coincidence, I thought I'd never see you again. By the way, what are you doing at my house?"
The cat was already sitting in the restaurant, slowly drinking the fish soup. Only after the bowl of fish soup was empty did she look at Jiu Nanxun.
Suddenly he laughed.
"Well then, let's get to know each other formally. My name is Jiu Maomao, and from now on, you'll have to call me 'older sister'."
Kunan Kaoru froze in shock.
Is the girl who saved her from dire straits last night her sister?
Does she have an older sister?!
Jiu Nanxun racked her brains. She did indeed have a half-sister. Wasn't that Jiu Xintian? Wasn't that the little star who was single-mindedly trying to become famous?
Come to think of it, she hadn't received a call from Jiu Xintian for over six months. She used to be frequently harassed by her, always with the caller asking for money…
After a long pause, Jiu Nanxun said with a complicated expression, "Where did you come from, my sister? Our dad is too much of a womanizer, how many sisters did he give birth to before me... But you look much better than Jiu Xintian."
