Spoiled by Eight Uncles (Lily)

Chapter 1307 Lilly’s Super Brain Someone was watching her! Lilly immediately looked up and toward the direction of the gaze. However, it was a tea house on the second floor, and the seat by the window was empty, with no one in sight.

“What's wrong?” Crawford Ancestor followed Lilly's gaze.

Lilly pointed in that direction. “Someone was secretly watching me over there, but when | looked, they were gone.” She believed her perception was correct, but who could be more skilled than her? One moment she felt the gaze, and the next, when she looked, there was no one. “Never mind... | might have been mistaken!” Lilly turned back and stared at the two skewers of cockroach balls in her hand, silent. Crawford Ancestor, noticing her concern, discreetly sent a signal. If Lilly felt something was amiss, then there definitely was something wrong, and they needed to investigate further.

After setting things up covertly, he appeared relaxed and teased. “Go on, your unlucky ghost has already tested them for you, haven't they? It's delicious.” Lilly continued to focus on the cockroach balls, while her mind raced through her memories like a movie played at double the normal speed. Her memory was already exceptionally strong: she could learn things. after just one look. This ability to remember allowed her to excel academically, even when she procrastinated and only studied the material just before exams. Her brain was capable of storing vast amounts of information and recalling it with remarkable accuracy, She could recall everything she had seen, but there was nothing she could do if she hadn't seen it. As she delved into her memories, she fell into a daze, or so it seemed. It was like flipping through a mental archive, from the moment she arrived at Everest to her journey so far. She reviewed the scenes along the way, the restaurants, the people sitting by the windows, and what they were doing. Her brain formed a series of vivid images, and she searched through them meticulously. This intense mental effort caused her head to throb with pain, but it was worth it, as she finally located the relevant memory.

It was the moment when she had queued up to buy the squid balls and had finally squeezed herself out of the crowd. At that time, on the second floor of the tea shop diagonally across from her, there was a man wearing a black robe. Lilly focused on this portion of her memory. She had only glanced at him briefly, so she only had a general impression of the mysterious man.

Specific details were hazy.

She was doing everything she could to recall, and her head grew increasingly painful, but she persisted. “He was a tall, skinny man in a black robe... Lilly stared at the cockroach balls, murmuring to herself. “He was slightly shorter than my dad, and he had a hat on. He wore something beneath the black robe, like a.....

vestment.” For some reason, when she thought of the vestment, the image of the old man she had seen in the rural village came to her mind. He was also wearing similar clothing. These two images seemed unrelated, but now that she linked them together, Lilly couldn’t shake the feeling that the black-robed man’s vestment was exactly the same as the one worn by the old man in the countryside.

At this time, a sharp pain surged through her brain. Lilly staggered, but Cloud, quick to react, reached out and steadied her..

Cloud was visibly concerned. “What's wrong? Could it be... the cockroach balls are poisoned?” Meanwhile, unlucky ghost had lost control and devoured four or five skewers of barbecued bugs. He was becoming addicted to them and kept exclaiming with delight. “If these had a bit of chili powder and pepper salt sprinkled on them, they would be even more addictive!” II 12 Unlucky ghost, along with Lilly, Cloud, and Crawford Ancestor, seemed to be in different worlds, completely absorbed in their own experiences. It wasn’t until he heard Cloud's mention of “cockroach. balls that he snapped back to reality.

“What? What cockroach? C-Cockroach... balls?” Unlucky ghost, still in shock, finally comprehended the sign at the food stall. It had bold letters of “Cockroach Balls” on it, accompanied by a drawing of a large cockroach.

He was utterly bewildered.

However, neither Cloud nor Crawford Ancestor, nor even Lilly, paid attention to the expression on unlucky ghost’s face. They were more focused on their own concerns.

Crawford Ancestor was horrified, repeatedly asking, “Have you seen that black-robed man?” Lilly shook her head. “I just remembered now. When | first arrived here, | accidentally glanced in that direction.” Lilly pointed toward the tea house. Crawford Ancestor was utterly astonished. What did this mean? It meant that Lilly hadn't actually seen the black-robed man but had deduced his existence from her memory! Someone with this level of memory capability was incredibly formidable. Some might argue there was nothing remarkable about having a good memory. However, for beings who could practice cultivation, having a powerful memory was the ultimate asset on their path. With countless incantations and spells to remember, being able to recall them rapidly and execute them could put them leaps and bounds ahead of others. His great-great-great-granddaughter was unbelievably talented! “Don’t worry. Once you've mentioned this person, | can uncover all of his information within five minutes!” He spoke with the confidence of a CEO saying. “In five minutes, | want to know everything about her, as if it were the same thing.

The stabbing pain in Lilly’s head began to ease somewhat, and she looked at Crawford Ancestor with skepticism. “Really?” Crawford Ancestor was brimming with confidence. “Of course! Don’t you know who | am? If | can't find the information, I'll eat the two skewers of cockroach balls you're holding Five minutes later, Crawford Ancestor had failed miserably.
