Chapter 416 Kidnapping the Cat
"Gong Juanzi, have you forgotten about me? You probably can't sense me right now. My concealment technique is unique in the Three Realms. I can hide the movements of the Azure Cat and won't be discovered. Otherwise, I wouldn't have come to Kuocang Mountain so brazenly. After all, if I were exposed, I, the Emperor, would be the most eye-catching figure. The great trend is about to arrive, and hiding is definitely not a solution. It's time to go out."
Lu Hao patted the cat's big head and said.
Cangmao shook its head, ignoring Lu Hao's hand as it remained, engrossed in the delicious food before it. Although the food had no energy, it was all incredibly tasty and unique. What had it been eating in the past? Seeing that Cangmao didn't react much, Lu Hao continued to touch it. He was one of the few people who could touch Cangmao; others couldn't even touch it if they wanted to. As for forcibly touching it—heh, Cangmao's spiritual power had undergone a qualitative change, and he would tell you the consequences.
The gray cat's fur looks sharp, but it feels incredibly soft to the touch, as if it couldn't have been created in this world. It feels exceptionally comfortable to touch.
"The general trend—"
Gong Juanzi naturally witnessed this scene. He didn't know how many abilities Cangmao possessed, but its greatest strength was its ability to foresee crises and avoid harm. This was Cangmao's greatest skill, and no one in the Three Realms could compare to it.
Since Cangmao doesn't dislike the person in front of him, does that mean he's right?
Moreover, the person in front of him possessed a secret technique for concealing his aura that even he couldn't discern, which might actually allow him to take Cang Mao out without being discovered by others.
Gong Juanzi fell into deep thought, and Lu Hao, seeing that Gong Juanzi didn't speak, didn't say anything either.
Continuing to take food out of the storage space, in addition to various prepared dishes, there was also cat food, catnip and the like.
However, these things that work for ordinary cats have little effect on the Azure Cat. After all, the Azure Cat is no longer considered a cat. The Azure Cat only likes to eat these things for the taste. You didn't see that in the original timeline, Fang Ping just fed the Azure Cat additives directly. Anyway, they wouldn't kill it. The Azure Cat only liked the taste. Of course, Lu Hao wouldn't be that heartless. He came here to raise cats. Isn't it good to raise cats properly? As for the rest, he knows most of the book groups. He doesn't need to try to trick the Azure Cat into revealing anything like Fang Ping did.
On the other side, Achoo, Achoo! Fang Ping sneezed several times in a row.
"What's wrong with you? Don't tell me a seventh-grade Grandmaster like you has caught a cold," Qin Fengqing said with a smile.
"Who knows? I bet someone's talking badly about me behind my back. Qin Fengqing, are you cursing me in your heart?" Fang Ping looked at Qin Fengqing with a frustrated expression.
"If someone badmouths you behind your back, I usually scold them on the spot —"
Qin Fengqing said with a pursed mouth.
"It's you—"
"Alright, stop arguing. Let's hurry up and find the weak point of the sixth-grade domain, otherwise we're wasting too much time here."
Wang Jinyang interrupted, saying that the three of them had just come in and killed a team of seventh-grade cultivators. After understanding the situation, they prepared to go to the sixth-grade domain, since there were too many good things there.
"Azure Cat, what do you think? Are you going out with Fellow Daoist Lu?"
After pondering for a while, Gong Juanzi gave the choice to Cangmao herself.
"This cat? This cat wants to go out—"
It's really tired of staying here now, and it's eaten everything that's edible. Now, the only thing left to eat is Gong Juanzi's body.
The thought of having to stay here gave it a headache. It could eat good food every day with Xiongxiong, and it didn't sense any malice from Xiongxiong. Xiongxiong was a good person!
"Azure Cat, are you sure? Things won't be so peaceful once we get out—"
Gong Juanzi asked.
"I don't care, this cat is going out! With Xiongxiong around, anyone who dares to lay a hand on me will be stabbed to death by Xiongxiong!"
The gray cat shook its head and said.
"Sigh—then you should go out with him, Fellow Daoist Lu. I'm entrusting Cangma to you—"
Seeing that Cangmao really wanted to go out, and having mentioned this matter many times before, Gong Juanzi didn't stop it this time. "Don't worry, since I came here specifically to find Cangmao, I will definitely protect it and won't let it get hurt. But Gong Juanzi, why don't you go out and see the changes in the outside world?" Lu Hao asked.
"I—it's not time for me to go out yet. Take good care of Cangmao. If I find out you have any other intentions, I'll make you pay the price, even if it costs me my life."
Gong Juanzi's tone sharpened as he spoke. After all, Cangmao had been with him since the North-South War. Though he called it a stupid cat, it was an inseparable part of his life. Now that the great trend was coming, Cangmao should indeed emerge to find the chosen one who could protect it. He himself could not protect it, but if anyone dared to make a move, he could still take down one or two emperors with his old life.
"Gong Juanzi, don't fight! The fierce ones are good people. Don't fight!"
The gray cat sensed something and looked up, saying, "You stupid cat—you're already speaking up for someone before you've even left. You've been sold out without even realizing it, and you're still helping the other person count their money."
Gong Juanzi laughed and scolded.
"The fierce-looking guy is a good person. He even gave me food. If I go out again, I won't fight. Can I go fishing in the forbidden sea?"
"That's what the blue cat said."
"Of course you can! Cats can't fight. Cats are meant to be kept as pets. You can come with me and fish freely in the Forbidden Sea. I can even help you catch fish."
Lu Hao smiled.
"Yes, what Xiongxiong said is right, cats are meant to be kept as pets—Gong Juanzi, aren't you going out?"
The cat patted its belly happily. Although it was only half full, it was still very happy. It had just woken up and there was something good to eat.
"The tide hasn't turned yet, you should leave now."
Having said that, Gong Juanzi said nothing more. His illusory figure dissipated. He needed to recover from his injuries quickly. The injuries from back then had not yet healed. Seeing that the great situation was about to unfold, he could no longer wait slowly.
"Azure Cat, let's go. I'll show you the outside world now. How has it developed over the years?"
Lu Hao said to Cang Mao.
"Hey, is there any good food outside? A lot of good food?"
Lu Hao said with a smile, "Don't worry, there are plenty of delicious foods outside. What you ate today is less than one ten-thousandth of what's available. I'm taking you out to try them."
"Alright, let's go quickly. This cat can't wait to eat something delicious. I haven't had a proper meal in thousands of years!"
The person and the cat walked towards the outside of the boundary wall.
A phantom figure watched the person and the cat from behind and murmured, "The Azure Cat is driven by self-interest and avoids harm. Its decision to leave the cave this time probably means that the cave is no longer safe—"
In a time of great strife, perhaps only by taking the initiative can one seize a glimmer of hope!
Given the lazy nature of the Azure Cat, if possible, it might spend its entire life sleeping inside the cave.
But this time, it followed someone else, which may really mean that great chaos is coming, and it is no longer safe to follow him.
"Will I, this old man, perish completely this time?"
Gong Juanzi looked up at the sky, somewhat bewildered.
Time has passed, and everything has changed. How are my old friends doing?
Perhaps we will meet again soon!
