Chapter 68: The Strange Secret

  Chapter 68: A Strange Secret

  [In Cheng Cai En's room at night]

  "Bang! Bang! Bang!" The sound of knocking on the door came.

  "Who is it?" I put down the cup of milk I was drinking and asked vaguely.

  "It's me, Jin Mu Xi." A familiar voice came from outside the door.

  "Kim?" I opened the door and let Kim in, "How did you get here? At this hour, shouldn't you be sleeping in your room? Did you forget that we're going on a trip tomorrow?"

  "I haven't forgotten." Jin Mu Xi walked into my room and plopped down on my bed, "I came to find you tonight because there's something very important."

  "Is it that important?" I furrowed my brow in puzzlement, "What's so important that you'd give up your beauty sleep to come find me on purpose?????"

  "Do you still remember what you told me at the bar today about finding the Phoenix Bloodstone?" Jin Mu Xi's expression turned serious.

  "Ah, indeed found it!!!!!!" Seeing Jin Mu Xi's serious expression, I also became serious and restored my cold face.

  "Where?" Jin Mu Xi asked.

  "On... on Han Zhi's hand that was stained with smoke and oil." I thought for a moment, but decided to say it anyway.

  "So that's it, the leader of Yan Xue Temple is indeed Han Zhi Liu Yan?" Jin Mu Xi sneered, "I was right after all, it was him!"

  "What? Kim, you've already investigated the background of Han Zhi Liu Yan? Why didn't you tell me?" She's already investigated it? Why hasn't she mentioned this to me all along?

  "Actually, I wasn't sure at that time, but now it's almost certain. Cai En, sorry, I didn't share my guess with you, please blame me for the mistake..." Jin Mu Xi bit her lip and immediately looked regretful.

  "Alright, alright, let's just forget about it this time." I sighed, I trusted Jin Muxi the most, even if she made a mistake, I wouldn't have the heart to punish her.

  "Then... Chaeun, when are we going to seize the jade stone?????" Gim Mook asked in puzzlement.

  "This... I'm still unsure because I haven't thought of an exact time yet." I said after a moment's contemplation.

  "I have a departure time, and I'm sure it will be successful." Jin Mu Xi looked at me and said with a smile.

  "What's an estimate?" I asked with a smile, looking at Jin Mu Xi.

  "This... probably... maybe... perhaps... eight out of ten..." I clearly saw Jin Mu Xi's mouth twitch, probably because my question was too difficult to answer.

  "So you tell me, what time is it?" I continued to ask her with a smile.

  "This is the time, it's now." Jin Mu said firmly.

  "Now?????" I continued smiling, but it was that kind of smile where only the skin smiled and the flesh didn't. "Why now?"

  "What's with that... Cai En, can't you stop looking at me like that? No, I mean, can't you stop smiling like that???? My cold sweat... is all over my body... goosebumps... are falling to the ground..." Jin Mu Xi's mouth continued to twitch.

  "Oh, okay, you say." I regained my normal composure and decided not to tease her anymore.

  "Because we're going on a trip tomorrow, everyone will definitely be sleeping soundly tonight and won't be on guard. I think at this time, it won't disturb others and can be done easily without too much obstruction..."
