"Since that's the case, then I'll take my leave, Mr. Xue. If you need anything, feel free to call me or send me a message on WeChat, and I will arrange it for you immediately,"

he said with a deferential attitude.

Xue Jing nodded and smiled, "Mm, thank you."

After watching Xue Jing enter the elevator, Chen Liang let out a sigh, pulled out his phone, and made a call while walking away.

"Hello... Captain... It should be fine..."

The intermittent voice drifted into the distance, but what Chen Liang didn't see was a black cat sitting in the corner's shadow, its beautiful emerald vertical pupils staring intently at the ascending elevator.

"Swoosh—"

The black cat vanished on the spot, turning into a streak of black lightning, rapidly hopping about its surroundings, and in a few agile maneuvers, climbed to the second, third, fourth floors...

On the fifth floor, as the elevator doors opened, the black lightning dashed inside, and then the doors slowly closed.

Xue Jing felt a slight weight on his shoulder, turned his head, and saw Miao Miao sitting there, licking its white-gloved right front paw.

"Teacher Wan, where did you just go off to?"

Xue Jing asked offhandedly.

Miao Miao continued licking its paw, using it to wash its cheeks, and hummed,

"The food on this ship is not bad... Although it's not as good as what you make, there's a lot of variety. I ate a bit of everything in that restaurant, and I haven't even finished half of it yet."

Xue Jing chuckled, "Then, were you discovered by anyone?"

"Discovered or not..."

Miao Miao looked up at the surveillance camera in the corner of the elevator ceiling.

"Haven't I already been discovered?"

Xue Jing also looked at the camera and pinched his chin.

"Hmm... It should be fine; they probably won't say anything about it."

"I also ran into some trouble outside just now..."

Xue Jing casually mentioned the incident where he was ambushed by dozens of gunmen as the elevator swiftly reached the twenty-second floor.

Stepping out of the elevator, Xue Jing checked the information on his boarding pass and began searching for his room.

"...You live quite the exciting life,"

Miao Miao mused thoughtfully.

She originally thought that not yet being an adult and already leading a life chased by large security firms was rare enough in this world.

But having spent a little over a month with Xue Jing and hearing about his encounters, even considering herself as one of Xue Jing's 'encounters,'

she finally had a delayed realization that there was something problematic about his constitution...

"Like a middle school student with the Grim Reaper... Tsk, I'm starting to think this ship might run into trouble."

Xue Jing laughed heartily, "How could that be? You're too sensitive. It was all coincidence before..."

Chatting casually, he found the room, beeped the sensor on the door lock, and opened the door.

This was one of the finest suites aboard the Infinite Nova, extravagantly furnished with two floors, and a marble spiral staircase in the corner leading to the second level.

Inside the room were four circular portholes and a moderately sized balcony, from which one could step out and behold the magnificent seascape, quite comfortable indeed.

Xue Jing unpacked his luggage and took out its contents.

GOD-1280·Ordinary Glasses, clothes, familiar shampoo, shower gel, toothpaste, toothbrush, towels, and the like.

There was also a nebulizer inhaler and many bottles of carefully prepared colorful liquids in glass jars, the secret medicine he would need for martial arts practice during the trip and in Maple City these past days.

Xue Jing arranged everything and placed a set of women's clothes and glasses in front of Miao Miao.

"Come and have dinner with me, Teacher Wan."

Miao Miao lay on the soft bed, lazily flipped over, paws to the sky, its head nearly sinking into the bedding, and drawled lazily,

"I just ate..."

Xue Jing smiled and said soothingly, "You had the buffet, right? There are many dishes on this ship that you can only get made to order by the chefs. Those are the really good ones."

At that, Miao Miao's ears twitched.

After rolling over, they stood up and managed to say, "Well... I'll eat another pinch."

Seeing Xue Jing staring intently at her, Miao Miao very anthropomorphically pouted, "What are you looking at? Aren't you going to turn around?"

Xue Jing raised an eyebrow, "After all this time, what part of me haven't you seen? What's there to be shy about?"

Miao Miao opened her mouth to reveal sharp tiger teeth, picked up her clothes in her mouth, and headed toward the bathroom. As she walked, she mumbled vaguely:

"It's different..."

By the time she came out again, she had transformed into a charming cat-eared girl.

She picked up the glasses on the bed, put them on, covering the striking presence of her narrow, phoenix eyes, and Ning Fengwan put her hands on her hips:

"Let's go!"

...

At the tail end of the Infinite Nova, a man and a woman were floating in thin air near the propeller.

The woman was holding a fist-sized, white, Play-Doh-like solid substance and stared doubtfully at the man:

"Are you sure we'll encounter the 'Sea Bee Swarm' this way? This is the last bit of deep-sea honey... if we fail, there won't be any left."

The man was full of confidence, "Rest assured, this information came right from Mr. Hu's mouth, it's one hundred percent accurate!"

The woman curled her lips, "Mr. Hu's words are never wrong... but he always tells half and keeps half, the process and the outcome are always different from what others expect..."

The man chuckled, "So, would you rather gamble once more on the slim chance of finding a needle in the ocean or follow Mr. Hu's assured, one hundred percent chance of encountering a 'Sea Bee Swarm'? Which do you choose?"

The woman sighed, said nothing more, but in a flash dived into the water, pulled out a strange looking electric drill-like device, drilled a small hole in the huge, nearly eight-meter diameter propeller, and then stuffed the white solid substance into it.

When she surfaced again, she shook her hair, twitched her fingers, and water vapor emanated all around her, quickly evaporating the sea water that drenched her.

"Ah, why do we have to do things like this..."

The woman sighed.

"No choice, if you want to navigate through the Intersecting Boundaries without getting lost, you need the 'Sea Bee King' to guide us. Our boss has a bad relationship with 'Joint Cultivation', and the trade has been completely blocked. Even secondary dealers dare not sell to us, so we have to catch one ourselves," said the man, scratching his head.

"Speaking of which, what compensation did you give to Mr. Hu?"

"It's a Divine Relic, GOD-1590·Spectacular Flower Bouquet... Boss gave it to me before departure, saying to use it to find Mr. Hu if there was really no other way.

"Isn't that too wasteful? Using a Divine Relic as compensation?"

"Boss said it's fine; though the ability is not bad, its side effect is just too significant, it's basically unusable, and it's just junk in our hands..."

"Mr. Hu also doesn't know what he's collecting Divine Relics for... Sometimes he even gives away the ones he has in half-sale, half-gift deals, so many baffling behaviors..."

...

"Western meals are mostly for show, sounds impressive but aren't as delicious as they seem."

In the restaurant, Ning Fengwan, wearing glasses, muttered as she used a knife and fork to cut a fancy piece of steak.

Xue Jing didn't reply, instead shook the cola in his highball glass, gazing out at the ocean view through the window.

This exclusive restaurant was said to only serve first-class passengers, featuring high-end cuisine without a menu, leaving diners at the mercy of whatever the chef prepared.

The only glasses available were these highball glasses.

Xue Jing took a sip of his cola, sighed, and smiled at Chen Liang standing beside him:

"Chen Liang, it's a bit embarrassing that you personally delivered this. Have you eaten yet?"

After entering the restaurant, he asked a waiter for cola but was told they didn't have any. The planned meal had to be paired with a specific red wine...

So Xue Jing sent Chen Liang a message, and the man came over personally with a big bottle of iced cola.

"I've already eaten, Mr. Xue," Chen Liang replied with a smile.

Xue Jing thought for a moment, then said, "Why don't you sit down and chat for a bit, Director Chen? I have some questions I'd like to ask."

Chen Liang agreed and sat down properly with a puzzled look at Ning Fengwan, who was still eating.
