nAt the police office.

nThe energy detector that they had just purchased rang loudly. Energy fluctuations were detected deep in the suburbs. It seemed as if cultivators were in a fierce battle!

nWhile they were not responsible for the battle deep in the suburbs, when there was a large range of energy fluctuations they had to pay attention to it in case accidents happened.

n“Is there a beasts’ tide?”

n“No.”

n“Use the satellite to check the situation.”

n“Understood.”

nThe officer looked grim.

nVery soon…

nThe image in the detector was focused somewhere.

nIt zoomed in.

nIt zoomed in.

nIt zoomed in.

nWell….

n“Who is it?”

nA police officer asked.

n“Uh…”

nThe officer looked at the picture deeply before answering after a long while. “From the satellite images, it seemed… seemed like a shower?”

nThe police officer was confused.

nWhy is there a shower in the depths of the suburbs?

nAnd it’s spreading energy!?

nHowever…

nThe police officers did not know that in the area that had turned blue from energy, there was a battle within someone’s Sea of Consciousness.

nIt was a brutal battle.

nShush!

nThe black cat got up.

nIt shook its lustrous fur. Its petite body exuded a stifling and awe-inspiring aura which dissipated into every corner of the Sea of Consciousness

nThe elder trembled.

nWhy is this creature here?

nLu Ming!

nHe is merely a five-star!

nWhy does he have such a creature in his Sea of Consciousness?!

nWhat should I do?

nGet on my knees and say “Father”?

nSurrender?

nNo!

nThis is all wrong!

nThe elder bit his teeth, shaking himself awake.

nHe came to his senses. If Lu Ming had someone of this level as his support, he would not need to fight against him! He would directly kill him!

nTherefore, it was likely that the black cat was fake.

nRight!

nThat must be it.

nThe elder was smart to have seen through the lies right away.

n“Interesting.”

nThe elder calmed down. “I don’t care from which ancient books you got this ancient creature but let me tell you, this is not what it is supposed to look like!”

nShush!

nThe elder swept his sharp gaze over the black cat. Compared to those creatures that he had seen in the ancient books, the more he looked at the black cat, the more he felt something was wrong with it!

n“Although you have golden pupils and seem to be majestic…

nThe elder sneered. “You are after all an illegal imitation!”

n“Illegal imitation?”

nLu Ming was dumbstruck.

nHe turned around to look at the black cat.

nDamn!

nHe did not know that there were illegal imitations of Brother Cat!

n“Of course.”

nThe elder sneered. “Do you know what your biggest flaw is?”

n“What is it?”

nLu Ming was doubtful.

n“Its body!”

nThe elder was serious. “This type of creature exists in legends. They were very rare. But one thing is certain. They were never castrated eunuch cats!”

n“As for your cat…”

nThe elder swept its gaze over it. “Its fur is not black enough. It is not as lustrous. Although it seems majestic, I can sense a trace of femininity…

n“Haha.

n“It seems like an inferior species that was caught in the wild and was castrated!

n“Heh.

n“How dare a eunuch cat impersonate ancient creatures?!

n“You are too naive!”

nThe elder said proudly.

nShush!

nThere was silence in the Sea of Consciousness.

nLu Ming stole a furtive at Brother Cat and took a step back…

nThis man was done for!

nHe was certain!

nThe man could not tell the cat in the face that it was a eunuch!

nHe did not even dare to say this to its face…

nWait a minute.

nLu Ming suddenly felt chills run down his spine. He was aware of something and he quickly recited to himself… prosperity, democracy, civility, harmony, freedom1.Core socialist values…

n→_→

nShush~

nShush~

nThe black cat walked toward the elder.

nThe footsteps were light, its figure agile.

nThe elder looked with indifference at the eunuch cat that was an impersonation of an ancient creature. He sensed that something was not right…

nCould it really be that type of creature?

nHence…

nHe instinctively looked toward the black cat’s crotch.

nWell…

nHe could not see clearly.

nWhen they were fighting later, he had to spread its legs open to check if it was a eunuch…

nThis was what the elder had in mind.

nAfterward…

nBam!

nThe black shadow flashed in front of him.

nHe sensed beams of cold lights flashing around him and the next second he was divided into several parts, hanging from the walls of the Sea of Consciousness, swaying in the wind…

nThe elder looked dumbstruck.

nThis…

nWhat the hell was that ability?!

nHe was a peak six-star. It was impossible for ordinary cultivators to defeat him!

nShush!

nHe re-condensed his figure but he had yet to come to his senses and he saw a black figure flashing in front of him. He was torn into several parts by a paw and hanging from the wall.

nThe elder finally realized something.

nThis black cat…

n“You…

n“What exactly are you?”

nThe elder was terrified.

nAfterward…

nThe black cat silently took off the bell at its neck, shook it slightly and the bell became transparent. It then used its paws to shove the elder inside the bell…

nCrash!

nCrash!

nCrash!

nThe elder’s consciousness banged against the crack of the bell.

nSs——

nLu Ming looked at it with horror. He watched helplessly as the elder’s normal figure broke into fragments after multiple collisions and he was shoved bit by bit into the bell.

nOnce, twice, thrice…

nCrash!

nCrash!

nThere were multiple violent collisions in the Sea of Consciousness.

nThe feeling reminded Lu Ming of the road that had just been repaired near the school. It was similar to the sound the pavement roller made when it filled up and leveled the road. It sounded cruel to him.

nFinally.

nThe consciousness of the elder was shoved through the crack of the bell.

nPeace returned to the Sea of Consciousness.

nThe figure of the elder turned into a ball of light on the bell, leaving only a trace of consciousness behind. He was dumbstruck as he saw how he was trapped inside the bell.

nCrash! Crash!

nHe knocked at the bell from inside.

nIt was useless.

nThe strange and mysterious bell had become his prison…

nRing—

nHe felt as if the world changed with every step that the black cat took.

nA scary force kept spreading within the bell. He felt that with the violent shaking of the bell, his body was dissipating and his poor consciousness kept on colliding with the bell. Every collision was like hell!

nAfterward…

nRing—

nThe black cat ran about happily in the Sea of Consciousness.

nThe elder was speechless.

nLu Ming was speechless.

nAfter a long while…

nThe consciousness of the elder dissipated.

nThat was right…

nIt disappeared as the cat ran about…

nAfterward…

nThe black cat looked toward Lu Ming as if it wished to continue.

nSs——

nLu Ming breathed in a breath of cold air.

nHe knew that Brother Cat was powerful. But he had never imagined that it was powerful to that extent! For the cat, defeating a peak six-star was like beating a cucumber!

n“Brother Cat!

n“Thank you for coming to my rescue!

n“Although the villain who insulted you died, we must stay vigilant. The culprit who spread that rumor has yet to be caught!”

nLu Ming looked solemn. He betrayed Xiao-Xiaojian without any hesitation.

nThe black cat narrowed its eyes.

nThat was right.

nThe culprit…

n“I will catch it and bring it to you.”

nLu Ming looked solemn.

nHence…

nHe left the Sea of Consciousness and returned to reality.

nWhoosh—

nHe had had the fright of his life.

nLu Ming barely heaved a sigh of relief.

nHe did not expect that Brother Cat would be that irritable… The elder had merely called it a eunuch cat and he was tortured to death. It was a terrible sight!

nTsk tsk…

nTrue enough.

nEveryone had their triggers.

nFor example, he could not take it when others said that he was handsome. It was annoying if someone said it to him everyday. He knew very well that he was handsome!

nNow it seemed that it was the same for Brother Cat.

nIt seemed that…

nIn the future, he had to refrain from saying “eunuch” in front of Brother Cat. After all, it was not good to expose people’s insecurities. This was the same for cats. Of course, as Brother Cat was angry now…

nHehe.

nLu Ming pulled out the Sky Water Sword from the elder’s body.

n“Well… Slut!

n“Come out!”

nLu Ming said with a smile.

nBuzz—

nFaint energy flashed and the Sky Water Sword was suspended.

nYes, as the sword spirit of the Sky Water Sword, Xiao-Xiaojian could naturally control it.

nHowever…

nUnexpectedly, Lu Ming only touched the Sky Water Sword and a brilliant light exploded, a mysterious force seemed to loom between the Sky Water Sword and him!

nBuzz—

nBuzz—

nPowerful lights dazzled.

n“You have come…”

nThe Sky Water Sword said indifferently.

nIts voice sounded awe-inspiring like someone from ancient times. It sounded quite ethereal. It resembled the powerful sound card that online anchors always used.

n“Have you recovered your memory?”

nLu Ming’s heart skipped a beat.

n“Yes.

n“Sky Water Sword can recognize its master!

n“I have naturally regained my memory.”

nThe Sky Water Sword sighed and said gloomily, “I have remembered some things… North Tayunma Clan is the guardian of Sky Water Sword and quietly waits for the next master to appear. I never expected that he would steal what was entrusted to his care and snatch the Sky Water Sword. He is really despicable!”

n“Guardian…”

nLu Ming nodded slightly.

nIt seemed that the elder had been through things in the past. However, all of these had nothing to do with him. Right now, he was more concerned about Xiao-Xiaojian!

n“Who are you now?”

nLu Ming asked.

n“I don’t know.”

nSky Water Sword sighed. “I thought that I would always remain a card spirit. I never expected that Sky Water Sword would be awakened and that I would be summoned back by force, and my memory has returned to me.

n“I…

n“Am no longer the original me.”

nIts ethereal voice reverberated in the darkness.

nThat was right.

nIts memories had returned.

nCountless years of memories had returned. They had drowned out the memories it had made in the Sword Card Master Association…

nWho… was it?

nLu Ming became silent.

nHe felt the slight ethereality of the Sky Water Sword. There was a trace of an ancient aura. He never expected that this battle would end in this manner!

nXiao-Xiaojian…

nIt seemed that it would not be coming back?

n“However…

n“Although we did not spend a lot of time together, I can tell that you are no ordinary man.

n“Although I have just woken up, I will still need to choose a master.

n“As for you, you are a good choice.

n“Xiao-Xiaojian is me and I am Xiao-Xiaojian. If you are willing, I will sign an equality contract with you. The Sky Water Sword will still be in your hands!”

nThe Sky Water Sword said calmly.

nYes.

nAfter all, it still had to choose a master.

nThe Sky Water Sword was still a sword.

nAs for it…

nIt was still a sword spirit.

n“Understood.”

nLu Ming sighed.

nWas Xiao-Xiaojian really gone?

n“It is fate that the two of us met.”

nSky Water Sword sounded calm. “This is the reason why I led this person to you. The black cat is extraordinary. It will be able to finish off that person easily.”

n“I understand.”

nLu Ming had made up his mind.

nHe never suspected Xiao-Xiaojian of this.

nThe reason was simple. Xiao-Xiaojian and him deduced the final version of the Art of Equalization together! Xiao-Xiaojian knew the way. If it had really betrayed him…

nThere was no need to bring the man to him!

nIt could directly impart the way to the elder.

nHe believed in Xiao-Xiaojian.

nHe believed in his judgment.

nOf course.

nNow that Sky Water Sword could summon Xiao-Xiaojian by force, there were potential complications! Lu Ming had to resolve them! However, he never expected that after defeating the hidden danger…

nXiao-Xiaojian would be gone.

nWas this a blessing or a curse?

nAt this moment, the annoying sound of Xiao-Xiaojian as well as the daily troubles it had caused seemed like good memories to him. That card…

nLu Ming felt sad.

n…

n“Come on,” the Sky Water Sword said calmly.

nCompared with Xiao-Xiaojian, as an ancient Excalibur, Sky Water Sword was calmer. Xiao-Xiaojian could not be compared to its aura.

nThis was the ancient Excalibur!

nPerhaps…

nThis was Xiao-Xiaojian’s real self!

nBuzz—

nBuzz—

nLights flashed on the Sky Water Sword.

nThe equality contract drew lines in the air.

nLu Ming instinctively lifted his hand and was about to touch it when he felt a chill from his Sea of Consciousness. A cold murderous intent cut across the Sea of Consciousness.

nEh?

nLu Ming’s heart jumped a beat.

nHe instinctively looked toward it.

nThere, the black cat had gotten up once again, all of its fur standing on end.

nThe murderous intentions were obvious.

nLu Ming was puzzled. What was wrong with Brother Cat?!

nTo be honest, if he did not understand Brother Cat’s situation, he would have thought that Brother Cat was in a grumpy mood due to its period! Brother Cat was supposed to be an elegant cat!

nIt was very lazy as well!

nCats like this would not be that furious.

nHence…

nLu Ming looked in the direction that Brother Cat was looking at and felt alarmed.

nOver there was a familiar subtitle on the screen that Brother Cat had created initially.

nIt said:

n“Hahahaha!

n“The fool, Lu Ming has been tricked! Hahahaha! Didn’t he brag that he was very smart? Humph! After signing the equality contract, he will no longer be able to beat me!

n“I, the big boss, am so much smarter!

n“Yes!

n“There is that stupid eunuch cat as well!

n“Hehe.

n“It is obviously an eunuch cat yet it pretended to be a big tailed wolf!

n“You might be from ancient times, but so am I. Who gives you the right to be high and mighty?!

n“Humph!

n“You are merely the earliest to hook up with Lu Ming!

n“You were merely lucky to be able to recover slightly faster than me, the big boss!

n“Just wait!

n“As long as Lu Ming signs the contract, I will regain my combat abilities. The Sky Water Sword will be powerful once again. And then, I will castrate you again. Hahahahaha!

n“I am the ancient sword spirit. Waka Waka!

n“There is the lovely Xiao-Xiaobai as well. I will be back very soon!

n“Hurry!

n“Sign the contract!”

n…

nShush!

nShush!

nThe subtitles flashed by at the speed of lightning.

nLu Ming was taken aback.

nBefore his eyes, the flashing subtitles seemed to reveal a certain urgency.

nWell….

nThere was the frosty coldness in the Sea of Consciousness.

nLu Ming was silent for a long time.

nSeriously…

nJust then, he might have been sad that Xiao-Xiaojian had disappeared but now he could only sigh for Xiao-Xiaojian who had done itself in.

nThis card… it was indeed courting death!

nShush!

nShush!

nHe stared at the flashing subtitles in front of him.

nAnd he looked at Brother Cat whose fur was standing on end, as well as its numbed calm. He noticed that under its sexy whiskers, there was a strange smile.

nLu Ming was certain that Xiao-Xiaojian was dead meat for sure!

n…

n
