The Interstellar Queen of Scavengers

Chapter 1689: Chapter 1689: Slash!

He Bi squinted his eyes.

Or—

Can it be deceived?

He Bi lay flat, motionless, his deep, dark eyes quietly gazing at Ji You, until his gaze shifted downwards, stopping at the Big Chopper in Ji You’s hand, and his eyes froze.

The Big Chopper Ji You was holding was about as big as her, gleaming brightly, the blade reflecting a cold light. It was a good knife, truly impressive...

But—

Just being held by Ji You, the blade was too long, too high, taller than Ji You herself, so that half of the blade dragged along the floor, making her look like a mischievous child secretly playing with a big knife—extremely ridiculous.

However, as a ’patient’, He Bi obviously wouldn’t risk offending his ’doctor’ at this moment, otherwise, he might end up with some strange things attached inside his body if he encountered a stingy doctor...

”Ahem...” He Bi pondered, slightly uneasy, and reminded, ”Take it easy, if you can’t manage, just focus on killing it, don’t worry about me.”

Ji You gripped the handle and said with a smile, ”Relax, the knife will surely cure the sickness.”

He Bi’s mouth twitched.

Why is he so worried?

Originally He Bi had decided to let things be, but then Ji You said, ”Senior, something’s wrong, where’s the scalpel? Have you searched everywhere? Do I just use the Big Chopper?”

He Bi: ”...”

He Bi’s breath caught, nearly causing a cardiac arrest.

The next second.

Ji You, who had been smiling mischievously, turned serious when confronting the simulated screen, it was her first time seeing someone else’s Spiritual World firsthand.

Very fascinating.

Completely different from her own Spiritual World, how to describe it? Through spiritual power, Ji You observed her own Spiritual World, seeing spaces that were void, not infinite, with a mist-like Space Barrier, and inside the space, besides the Six Spiritual Threads and Spiritual Core, there was nothing else.

In other words, if the Six Spiritual Threads were diminished, everything would be empty to the eye.

But!

He Bi’s was different.

The simulated screen showed He Bi’s Spirit Space divided in two, one half was large, occupying about 70%, filled with heaps of chaotic Spiritual Silk, twisted and tangled together, resembling a silkworm cocoon. The other half was smaller, only about 30%, where the Spiritual Silk looked like rows of soldiers, neat and orderly, filled with murderous intent...

This is—

The Spiritual Silk cleaned out by Senior He Bi. However, these Spiritual Threads all had one characteristic, they were merely individual strands, looking very dull and mechanical, without a hint of life.

Yet, there’s a 30% cleaning rate.

Ji You couldn’t help but be impressed, knowing that it must have been extremely difficult for someone of Senior He Bi’s age to clear so much Spiritual Silk.

Little did she know that pampered children like Shen Changqing and Yue Qiyuan, despite abundant resources, had not reached a 20% cleaning rate.

Senior He Bi, a pauper, reached 30%!

Realizing this, Ji You’s eyes widened, hesitating with the Big Chopper, she asked, ”Senior, before I start, may I ask you a question?”

He Bi looked at Ji You’s flattering yet somewhat roguish expression, his mouth twitched, ”Speak.”

Ji You said, ”Senior, are you actually an heir to some hidden super wealthy family? Worth billions... your biggest worry in life is not knowing how to spend your money?”

He Bi: ”...”

Despite feeling a bit uneasy, having prepared for the worst, Ji You’s joking banter lightened He Bi’s tense nerves.

A faint smile curved on his lips.

This rascal!

Not a decent word, yet strangely likable.

He Bi said, ”I’m a tenth generation pauper, never heard of wealth in our family. If you have billions, I’d gladly help spend it, as much as needed!”

As for death?

Would He Bi be one to speak lightly of death?

The sky could crumble, the world could end, the universe could explode, and He Bi would still be bouncing alive!

Currently, it was just a little bug hidden in his Spiritual World, to be pulled out! Can’t pull it out?

He Bi sneered!

He really wanted to personally taste what swallowing an Alien Spiritual Silk would feel.

Must be quite tasty, right?

Thinking—

He Bi suddenly felt a chill on his scalp and immediately raised his head to see Ji You actually clumsily trying to slice at his head with the Big Chopper.

He Bi: ”...”

He Bi asked, ”Are you sure you don’t want to switch to a scalpel?”

Ji You shook her head, ”I’m more used to the Big Chopper.”

He Bi took a deep breath, ”Fine, whatever works best.”

While they conversed, He Bi continuously focused on his Spiritual Silk, especially those tainted with black spots, noticing the spots seemed to disappear completely, even when he considered consuming them, they had no reaction.

Did they flee?

He Bi frowned.

He had been watching but sensed nothing.

What kind of monster was it?

Meanwhile, Ji You holding the knife near He Bi’s head was comparing, but her gaze was fixed on the virtual screen, searching through the rows of Spiritual Silk...

Then—

Ji You suddenly laughed, ”Found it!”

Her voice carried joy, delight, and murderous intent, ”Senior, I’m going to start!”

After saying this—

Ji You without hesitation, raised the knife and slashed towards He Bi’s head. In that instant, He Bi remained motionless, not at all panicked, as if it wasn’t his head that was about to roll.

At that moment, time seemed to slow down.

Bit by bit...

Ji You’s knife got closer and closer to He Bi’s head, with no hesitation, she swung the knife to cut!

There was a—

Crack~

A remarkably crisp slicing sound echoed all around, He Bi didn’t dodge, Ji You’s blade didn’t stop. As she swung, Ji You’s Six Spiritual Threads surged, releasing a powerful wave like a tsunami, shaking the earth and swallowing the mountains!

Boom—

The target was directly He Bi’s 3 Spiritual Threads—

Yes, she wasn’t bluffing, at that moment she really found the 3 Spiritual Threads hiding the black spots!

Boom—

He Bi felt his ears buzzing... the earth shook! The entire Spiritual World trembled, swaying, overturning...

Crumbling~

At that moment, 3 Spiritual Threads that had been quiet, orderly, and seemingly inactive, suddenly erupted with fangs and claws!

He Bi felt a chill.
