The Interstellar Queen of Scavengers

Chapter 1009: Chapter 1009: Drag It Out

Ji You’s eyes spotted a nutrient solution among the clutter of items. It was a standard model, low-level nutrient solution produced by Huatai Food. Just seeing the mushy stuff inside the transparent packaging made Ji You’s stomach churn...

On the garbage planet, to save money, Ji You would split a nutrient solution in half, eating it in two meals, but half was never enough. So, she had the idea of diluting it with water, adding it to the mushy nutrient solution, and the taste...

Just thinking about it made Ji You shiver; she felt she needed at least 100 years to wash away the memory of that extremely disgusting taste...

Everyone perked up at the mention of a special item possibly being here, suddenly bursting with energy to help Ji You search... Ji You was also very serious, forcing herself to overcome the nausea and examine the low-level nutrient solution in her hand over and over, yet still couldn’t find anything special...

Spiritual World.

Boss, Second, and Third chimed together: [Master! Put down the nutrient solution; we’re still friends.]

Fourth initially wanted to follow Boss and the others, but wittily seized the opportunity to take advantage: [Master, Sisi is going to faint from this stench and needs Master’s kiss and hug to wake up.]

Old Five looked to the left, then the right, wagging its tail, earnestly reminded the Master: [Master! This is definitely not the delicious thing Sisi is looking for; definitely not. You should put it down sooner.]

Sixth: [No, don’t, refuse.]

”Cough cough...” Ji You raised her hand to her forehead, and following the demands of the Spiritual Silk, put down the nutrient solution in her hand. Simultaneously, she couldn’t help but shout into the Spiritual Silk World: ”You think I want to hold it? You just don’t understand... If it weren’t for you guys...”

”Forget it.” Ji You’s fierce demeanor suddenly softened; she turned around and whispered softly, ”In the end, it’s a lone person bearing it all.”

Boss, Second, Third, Fourth, Fifth, and Sixth halted their movements upon hearing the Master’s somewhat melancholy voice. In front of them was the Master whose figure was clearly so grand, so towering, so broad...

But—

Yet she gave off such a delicate, delicate to the point of being slightly helpless feeling, bringing out a twinge of guilt deep in the Silk’s hearts: Have we gone too far?

Clearly the Master had worked so hard to nurture the Silks, yet the Silks asked for so much more...

Myself!

What have I, along with the other Silks, done to Master!

Only knowing how to take without giving back, isn’t that just like a parasite, making people resent and feel ashamed?

In an instant, from Boss to Sixth, even Fourth who loves to play tricks the most, were like energised little warriors, beating their chests and exclaiming in unison: [Master! Don’t be sad! Sisi are your eternal support!]

In the ethereal Spirit Space, Ji You stood still, facing away.

Six Spiritual Threads: [Master, take a rest, leave it to Sisi! Sisi will definitely go all out today to uncover it!]

And then—

Ji You turned around to look at her six Spiritual Threads, her gaze full of helpless affection...

”You all...” Ji You sighed slightly, her smile carrying three parts helplessness, three parts reflection, and three parts affection... Her tone was gentle as she said: ”I am your eternal support; as my Ji You’s threads, if possible, I would rather endure bitterness alone, to let you fly freely under this sky without worries...”

Six Spiritual Threads: [!!!]

Six Spiritual Threads trembled in unison: [Master—]

Faced with the Silks’ expressions of reverence, adoration, love, care, guilt, remorse... such that thousands of words couldn’t capture their feelings, Ji You waved her hand lightly and smiled, saying: ”No need to speak, you are my threads, I understand, I completely understand.”

Six Spiritual Threads, deeply moved, weeped: [Master—]

Ji You chuckled softly: ”Alright— Let’s find it together.”

Six Spiritual Threads, like charged-up little warriors, were all excited, each clenching their fists: [Yes!]

Reality.

Yue Qiguang saw Ji You with a trace of a smile at her lips and couldn’t help but feel chills. Puzzled, he asked: ”Number 4444, why are you smirking with a nutrient solution? Could the special item be this nutrient solution?”

Impossible, right?

Yue Qiguang clicked his tongue, moved closer to examine it, and the next second, Ji You threw the nutrient solution at him: ”If it were such a special item, I could give you hundreds of them.”

Yue Qiguang caught it and then tossed it aside disdainfully.

At this time, Shen Changqing’s slender fingers pinched a dry leaf and said to Ji You: ”Ji You, try this.” This was the only leaf in the Eagle Map Space Button, only the size of a fingernail, probably brought accidentally when Ying Tu was storing something. Shen Changqing felt the most likely special item was this leaf because his grandfather’s special item was a kind of plant.

With expectant eyes, Shen Changqing handed it to Ji You. Ji You accepted it but hadn’t yet examined it carefully when she heard the Six Spiritual Threads inside the Spirit Space Button all exclaim together: [Not this! Not this! Not from the honest person!]

Ji You: ”Can you check again?”

Six Spiritual Threads all shook their heads: [It’s too stinky for Sisi...No more looking, no more looking.]

Next.

Yue Qiyuan handed over a stone.

Six Spiritual Threads: [Why is Yue Qiyuan so dumb? Even dumber than his brother. Why does he think he’s smarter than his brother? How can a random stone from this trash heap be our special item?]

Ji You shook her head at Yue Qiyuan and said, ”You’re so dumb~”

Yue Qiyuan: ”...”

Ji You said seriously: ”It wasn’t me who said that, it was my Spiritual Threads told me.”

Yue Qiyuan: ”...”

Yue Qiyuan went silent for a moment before he couldn’t help but curse with a dark face: ”I kindly helped you find something, and you attacked me personally? Where’s your manners?”

Ji You replied defensively: ”I said it wasn’t me, it was my Spiritual Threads.”

Yue Qiyuan rolled his eyes: ”Who are you fooling? Whose Spiritual Threads can speak?”

Ji You: ”Mine.”

Yue Qiyuan simply decided to ignore her and kept searching.

Everyone rummaged through the mess of items again and again, each item carefully observed at least three times, but Ji You kept saying no, feeling it wasn’t right...

Just then, Sheng Qingyan seemed to suddenly recall something, grabbed the Eagle Map space button the size of a coin in his hand, jiggled it to contemplate, and then tore off the layer of protective film wrapped around it. At that moment, Ji You suddenly felt invigorated!

Six Spiritual Threads: [Wow! That’s it!]

Six Spiritual Threads: [Wow! Spicy Eyes eight meters eight today!]
