Chapter 60: Chapter 60: The Suppressed Lord Cat

"Senior, you can’t be mistaken, can you? Why are you under my foot?"

Ye Wushuang said this, but he didn’t move his foot. Then, with a grin, he asked, "By the way, Senior, you didn’t finish what you were saying. What would you do if I didn’t agree?"

"Damn it! You brat, move your foot! Quick!" the "fat cat" urged, its eyes rolling back in its head.

"Senior, why don’t you answer my question first?" Ye Wushuang didn’t move.

’Blast it! This kid is doing it on purpose! Absolutely on purpose!’ The fat cat knew full well that Ye Wushuang was messing with it and had already cursed him a thousand times over in its mind.

But it was in a bind and had no choice but to bow its head. Its tail was still pinned under Ye Wushuang’s foot. It ground out through clenched teeth, "Listen up, brat. If you don’t agree, Lord Cat will fill your storage space with endless treasures, stuff you to death with infinite Elixirs, and then find a hundred peerless beauties to ravish you to death..."

The fat cat then went on an unending rant about the "punishments" it would inflict on Ye Wushuang, its furious tone suggesting a deep, irreconcilable hatred.

Meanwhile, Ye Wushuang’s face darkened, utterly defeated by the fat cat’s shamelessness.

Of course, he knew when to stop and finally lifted his foot. The only reason he’d stepped on its tail was to get back at the creature for pretending to be a senior to scare him.

After freeing the tail, Ye Wushuang walked around to the front of the fat cat. The creature was rolling its eyes in pain, its expression as comical as could be.

"For crying out loud! You’re a cruel one, kid! You probably broke Lord Cat’s tail! My peerless, heroic image is ruined because of you! You have to compensate me!" the fat cat screeched like a shrew, its shifty eyes locked on Ye Wushuang. It looked as if it would fight him to the death if he didn’t restore its "peerless, heroic image."

Hearing this, Ye Wushuang couldn’t help but chuckle. He looked at the fat cat with a smile and asked, "Then how should I compensate you?"

"Hmph, since you’re being so sincere, just get this thing off me and prepare some good food for Lord Cat. That’ll be enough."

"Hey, hey! Where are you going, brat? Come back!"

The fat cat spoke with an air of entitlement, but when it looked up, it saw that Ye Wushuang had already turned and walked away.

"Damn it to hell!"

The fat cat grew frantic. Pinned beneath the Dragon Blood Cauldron, it was completely immobile. "Wait, kid!" it shouted urgently. "Lord Cat has a big secret for you, about this Dragon Tomb."

A secret about the Dragon Tomb? 𝒇𝙧𝙚𝓮𝙬𝙚𝓫𝒏𝓸𝓿𝓮𝒍.𝓬𝙤𝓶

Ye Wushuang’s heart skipped a beat. He stopped in his tracks and spun around. "You know the secrets of the Chaos Dragon Tomb?"

Seeing Ye Wushuang turn back, the fat cat’s eyes darted around and it wagged its tail. "Kid, you let Lord Cat out first, and then Lord Cat will tell you the secret. Lord Cat is an omniscient Dragon Cat, knowing everything between heaven and earth. What is there that I don’t know? Lord Cat not only knows the secrets of the Dragon Tomb but also its taboos and hidden matters..."

’Taboos and hidden matters?’

The fat cat was cunning, stopping right at the crucial part. However, it had successfully piqued Ye Wushuang’s curiosity. The Chaos Dragon Tomb was far too mysterious, and the fact that it had crash-landed on him couldn’t be a coincidence. ’There must be something more to it.’

’Since this fat cat is inside the Chaos Dragon Tomb, it must know something.’ His eyes shifted. "Tell me what I want to know first. I don’t trust you."

"What!"

"Damn it all! Back in the day, Lord Cat was the Heaven-Devouring Dragon Cat who roamed the Nine Heavens Domain! My cat-tegrity is known far and wide! How dare you not believe me, brat!"

"Kid, make it quick. One word: are you letting me out or not? Lord Cat has cat-tegrity and principles! I can’t be bothered to waste my breath on you!"

Hearing Ye Wushuang’s distrust, the fat cat flew into a panic, seeming to care more about resolving the issue of its "cat-tegrity" than the fact that it was trapped.

’Principles?’

’Cat-tegrity?’

Ye Wushuang’s face darkened again. This creature deliberately pretended to be a senior to scare him, tried to trick him into letting it out, and was full of schemes at every turn—and it had the gall to talk about cat-tegrity and principles?

Still, Ye Wushuang was determined to get to the bottom of the Chaos Dragon Tomb issue. Otherwise, it would remain a thorn in his side, making him deeply uncomfortable. After weighing the pros and cons of releasing this creature, Ye Wushuang’s gaze hardened. He glanced at the colossal Dragon Blood Divine Cauldron and asked, "How do I get you out?"

"You just have to move this broken cauldron," the Dragon Cat said. Seeing that Ye Wushuang was going to help, a glimmer of very human-like, secret delight flashed in its shifty eyes.

Ye Wushuang was puzzled. "If I can move it, why can’t you?"

"You try moving it when you’re pinned under a ninety-nine-meter-tall broken cauldron!" the Dragon Cat said, exasperated. It seemed to trigger a painful memory, and a look of profound, tragic sorrow filled its eyes.

Hearing that, Ye Wushuang rubbed his nose, not bothering to argue with the Dragon Cat. He looked up at the mountain-like Dragon Blood Divine Cauldron. ’I’m just in my Divine Sense form right now,’ he thought. ’There’s no way I can move this.’

The Dragon Cat seemed to know what Ye Wushuang was thinking and explained, "You can communicate with it using your Divine Sense. You are the master of the Chaos Dragon Tomb, so you can control this broken cauldron."

"I’ll give it a try!" Ye Wushuang considered it for a moment, then placed his hands on the body of the Dragon Blood Divine Cauldron and poured his Divine Sense into it. The patterns on its surface immediately began to twist strangely, devouring a portion of his Divine Sense.

Just as Ye Wushuang’s expression changed in alarm, a message informing him that the ownership transfer was successful flooded his mind. At the same time, an inexplicable connection formed between him and the Dragon Blood Divine Cauldron. Information about Alchemy was also imprinted upon his Divine Sense.

However, he didn’t focus on it for now. ’I’ll study it later when I get out.’

Rise!

After a moment, Ye Wushuang let out a great shout. The ninety-nine-meter-tall Dragon Blood Cauldron moved, and a white furball shot out with a WHOOSH, turning into a streak of white light that rocketed into the Chaos Space.

"Hahaha, Lord Cat is finally free!"

"You scum of the Beast Realm! You scum of the Nine Heavens Domain! The glorious light of Lord Cat will soon shine upon you all!"

Having escaped its suppression by the Dragon Blood Divine Cauldron, the Dragon Cat did a few somersaults in the air, struck a flamboyant pose, and laughed uproariously at the sky. It looked down on all creation, as if it were the sole sovereign of the heavens and earth!

"Shouldn’t you tell me the secrets of the Chaos Dragon Tomb now?" Ye Wushuang asked, watching the insufferably arrogant Dragon Cat in the sky. A strange light flickered in his eyes.

At his words, the Heaven-Devouring Dragon Cat said impatiently, "What’s the rush? First, let me hear you call me Lord Cat!"

BANG!

The next instant, Ye Wushuang’s Divine Sense Little Man took a single step to appear beside the Dragon Cat, simultaneously slamming into it with an invisible, Vast force.

AARGH!

The Dragon Cat let out a miserable shriek and was sent flying like a white ball, all its earlier flamboyance vanishing in an instant without a trace.

"You insolent brat! How dare you strike Lord Cat!"

The Dragon Cat, which had been knocked away, reappeared beside Ye Wushuang in the blink of an eye. With the look of a Fierce God, it seemed ready to fight to the death.

But when it saw Ye Wushuang’s exceptionally cold gaze, its eyes darted about, and it held back. ’This Chaos Space is this kid’s turf,’ it grumbled inwardly. ’Lord Cat will endure for now.’
