Chapter 91: Why Must You Sneak Around?!

  "Moonlight color... woman... uh." He had only read less than half a sentence when Jiǔ Mìng glanced sideways at the large fox lying quietly beside him, and corrected himself - after all, even a female beast shouldn't be called a "woman".

  Not even counting the girls, at most it's just beast ears...... No, it's a beast girl.

  "Amazing." After gazing at her golden ears for a moment, he withdrew his line of sight. The fox's body was quite good-looking, no mistake about it. And when the other party transformed into a human, they didn't have any clothes on either... benefits?

  That fox fur is the best clothing!

  Is this an imperfect transformation or is it intentional?

  "How many days until full moon?" Jiǔ Mìng didn't know the date here.

  "There are still four days." Yakumo Ayame replied.

  "Four days, huh." Jiǔ Mìng raised his head to look at the incomplete round moon in the sky, slightly curling up the corner of his mouth. How were they supposed to go to the moon? Had Bā Yún Zǐ discovered some alien spaceship or something, and was just bored and wanted to take a stroll on the moon, and also say hello to the moon people there?

  Why wait until full moon?

  "...Anyway, although I don't see anything special about you, but...if necessary, be sure to assist Lord Murasaki properly." Yakumo Ayame said after a moment of silence.

  "Hmm, truly loyal indeed... it's only right, after all, they're canine...". The nine lives' voice had just fallen when she quickly retreated to the side. Several strands of gray silk slowly dispersed into the air, these were the severed hairs.

  "What are you trying to do, you violent fox!?" The nine-tailed beast shouted loudly at the eight-clouded blue figure who was retracting his claws.

  "My hand slipped."

  "……￥%*！” Jiǔ Mìng looked around, but found nothing. He simply called out his card collection book and quickly pulled out a sealed card from it. After crushing it, a square sky-painted halberd appeared in Jiǔ Mìng's hand. "Come on, come on! I had this grass-cutting weapon custom-made at great expense. It's a professional treatment for slippery hands, itchy hands, and other stubborn symptoms."

  His card collection is constantly enriching, with knives, guns, swords, clubs, flying darts and hidden weapons all in a complete set. With the production capacity of his world, spending a bit more money to produce them would basically put them on par with the likes of the Heaven Reliant Sword or Dragon Slaying Knife... maybe even with a few '+' signs attached.

  Anyway, the capacity of collecting card books is unknown, it's just a burst of collector's mania.

  "I'm going out to find food, don't run around randomly, be careful not to encounter other monsters." The fox gave Jiǔ Mìng a big white eye, looked at the time, and transformed back into its beast form, preparing to temporarily fly away from here.

  "Oh? Worried about me?"

  "Not really, it's just that the damage here is too severe. Although Master Zi won't say anything, it's a real hassle to repair."

  "So that's how it is. You don't even provide meals?! Hey, as the party entrusted with this task, isn't it a problem to neglect the person you've hired? Aren't you afraid I'll make things difficult for you?"

  "If you dare to do this, I'll personally help Lord Zi take care of you!"

  "What's a verbal threat?!" With a light snort, he watched the big fox fly away and sat down cross-legged. He rummaged through his food, Beijing roast duck, Lanzhou lamb skewers, and... that pizza that now made him want to vomit!

  He really wanted to ask C.C. what kind of eating method would allow him to eat pizza every day without feeling nauseous or tired of it?

  A sumptuous dinner was laid out before him, Jiǔ Mìng glanced at the place where Bā Yún Lán had left, smiled slightly, and picked up the chopsticks beside him...

  Abundant Food

  [Type: Consumable]

  [Attribute: None]

  Usage count: 1

  Quality: Normal

  In short, it's just food sealed up in a restaurant!

  Source Power Consumption: 3

  In the card collection book of Jiuming, there were dozens of sealed cards of the same type... He set up a table of dishes in the restaurant and directly sealed them, making it extremely convenient.

  It's just...

  Just now he put aside half of the roasted duck suddenly missing?

  "Thief! There's a thief!!" Just as he noticed that half of the roasted duck was gone, Jiǔ Mìng turned his gaze back and found that almost every dish on the table had shrunk by half! Undoubtedly, this was the work of an extremely cunning thief!!!

  "Damn it!" Just as he was distracted again, the remaining half of the roasted duck next to Jiǔ Mìng disappeared, and the food placed in his blind spot also disappeared silently. "This... is too outrageous, I'm addicted!?"

  Dazed, Jiǔ Mìng raised his hand to find that the unused chopsticks beside him had disappeared. What's even more outrageous is that at first, there were just fewer dishes, but now they're short of plates!

  Faintly, Jiǔ Mìng still heard a few giggles belonging to a young girl.

  Illusion?

  Got it! I'll just slowly savor this pizza for now.

  Even so, a pizza, nine people only ate one-third of it, and the remaining two-thirds disappeared unknowingly, a clever move to the extreme...

  "I've got you!!!"

  While eating carelessly, Jiǔ Mìng suddenly stuffed a small piece of pizza into his mouth and burst out with an extraordinary tiger-like movement, pouncing fiercely towards a small hand that had suddenly appeared in front of him. He quickly stretched out his hand to grab it, grabbing perfectly!

  A girl's cry of surprise echoed from the crack in the small hand.

  "Be careful, Master Yuanyu, there's an assassin!!!"

  Alas? Assassin? It's clearly just catching a thief, isn't it... No! This crack that appeared in the air looks so familiar! Who is Youyouzi...?

  Along with a sudden shrill female voice and the crisp sound of a sword being unsheathed, Jiǔ Mìng's pupils slightly contracted, his head quickly turned to the side. A knife with a cold glow stabbed out from that slit, cutting off a few strands of his hair. Close call! The next moment, this knife that had stabbed into empty air was actually inside that small slit without harming that small hand, and directly chopped down towards Jiǔ Mìng's arm.

  Ding!!!!

  Jiǔ Mìng's hand brushed against the swiftly falling knife, and the snow-white blade emitted a loud, clear "ding" sound. The force of the knife's descent was completely dissipated in the intense tremor, and from within the crack, a stifled hum simultaneously arose.

  "This is too much... How treacherous!" The Nine Lives, who almost got stabbed by the second knife that came out of the crack, gritted his silver teeth and squeezed out these words from between them, nearly getting his mouth cut by the icy blade!

  "I don't believe you have a third hand!!"

  A small crack in the face is actually bustling to this extent, even if there are three hands and nine lives left with one hand! Okay, in fact, the opponent has a knife, I don't know who that person is, but they really don't have a third hand, so this matter can be considered as nothing...

  How could it be? That knife which was almost shattered by a single finger from Jiǔ Mìng is free!

  "Hmm..." With the knife that was already close to his own neck, Jiǔ Mìng slightly licked the corner of his mouth, feeling that the corner of his mouth had been cut a bit, and it hurt.

  Compare strength with me... Feeling the struggling force of the two knives, Jiǔ Mìng laughed to himself and pulled back. What made him feel strange was that the owner of the hand he was holding, seemed to be quiet from head to toe, except for the initial exclamation, all the way until now, without even struggling.

  "A gap?" Feeling something was off, the nine-tailed beast heard a crunching sound and suddenly realized what had happened. Its eyes shifted elsewhere... Ah, as expected, everything had been eaten.

  "Hey! Don't be too outrageous!!"

  The silver teeth biting the knife loosened, and the nine lives that had been holding onto the two knives also relaxed, releasing the small hand. The two hands were stuck in the gap between the two blades, and with a loud cracking sound, they pried them open from the inside out...

  "...the explosive power exceeded the soul's load."

  In short, the gap was expanded a bit, and the nine lives quickly withdrew their hands, which had become slightly twisted, began to rapidly recover, after throwing several high-energy crystals into his mouth, he let out a long sigh, getting somewhat excited...

  "If you want to eat something, why don't you just come out and say it instead of using this sneaky way?"

  Kunomei rubbed his forehead, staring at the two girls sitting in front of him. The blonde one was familiar, but the pink-haired... In the words of the blonde, were they considered to be of the same clan as Kunomei?

  They're all ghosts!

  Pink hair, pink eyes, pale complexion, wearing a soft hat, and clothes with blue and white stripes... elegant pajamas with plenty of lotus leaf edges?

  Now she, apart from exchanging greetings with him at the beginning and when they were about to part ways, mainly focused on the food he occasionally took out. Is it really okay to casually accept food from strangers like this?

  No, no! It should be why ghosts can eat things, put it on myself who hasn't experienced the 'Spring Day Cycle Curse', Jiǔ Mìng would definitely say a sentence of transforming into a dragon and resenting heaven...

  Why is it so unfair!! We are also ghosts......Oh, in this place they are called spirits.

  Both are ghosts, why can one eat and the other can only watch and smell? Apart from that, there is a woman with green and white striped long shirt, slender figure, white hair and blue eyes. Looking at the two knives she brought, Jiǔ Mìng knew who had just cut himself without introduction! What's up, let me catch that white thing flying around you, can I?

  Saigyō Temple's Yūyūko, a soul-stirring spirit maiden... Ah, this name, somehow it gives me an inexplicable feeling of intense malice.

  "It feels more interesting this way." Folding her fan to half cover her face, Ba Yunzi smiled slyly at the 'best friend' being fed by someone else, presumably her best friend.

  "What's the thrill of sneaking a bite?" The feeling of stealing is so exciting!? It's just eating, why make such a big deal out of it, and still use the word "steal" with a sly tone... His eyes narrowed slightly as he glanced at the curvaceous woman standing to one side, "Then why didn't you stop her when she hit me?"

  "Offending the great existence of Yu Yu Hakusho is absolutely unforgivable."

  "It's just a cut, it's just a scratch on the hand... Ah! You're going to draw your sword again!? The nine-lived one glared at the woman who had her hand on the hilt of her knife."
