Chapter 43 - 43 Cat General’s Request



His goal wasn’t only to achieve good results as Yang Zhongyi had said.

This concerned the cultivation resources he could obtain in the academy in the future, so he had to do his best.

Since he had to do it, he wouldn’t spare any effort!

Of course, there was no need to tell Yang Zhongyi that.

It was already night when he left the martial arts school.

When Lin Shen passed by the spirit beast meat store, he bought some spirit beast meat as usual. The night had set in when he headed home.

The weather didn’t seem to be too good tonight. An extremely faint fog had appeared on the streets at some point, making the night sky a little hazy.

The street in the distance was even more blurry, making it difficult to see anything clearly.

Lin Shen didn’t think much of it at first, but as he walked, he suddenly realized something was wrong.

“It’s too quiet!”

Although the East District wasn’t as prosperous as the Central District and the West District, it should be a scene of feasting and revelry at this hour.

Even if the path he chose was a little remote, there should be some people nearby.

There was no sound of cars or people in the distance. Everything was so quiet as if he was the only one left in the entire world.

“The fog is getting thicker!”

Lin Shen looked around. The fog on the street had become thicker when he wasn’t looking.

Looking around, he could only see the scene within a radius of 20 to 30 meters. Beyond that, everything was a blur. He could only vaguely make out the outline of buildings. Each of them was like a demon baring its fangs and brandishing its claws, looking especially terrifying in the night.

Lin Shen tensed up and observed his surroundings warily.

At this moment, he saw something from the corner of his eye. He turned around and realized there was something on the corner of the street 20 meters away.

Nothing was there ten seconds ago!

Lin Shen narrowed his eyes. After some thought, he took a step forward and carefully approached the object.

As he got closer, he realized that the thing that had suddenly appeared was a shrine.

The shrine was about a meter tall. It had a mahogany base and an open door. Inside was an exquisitely carved, lifelike statue.

Upon closer inspection, it was the cat general he had seen half a month ago!

Thud!

Just as Lin Shen was feeling bewildered, the statue in the shrine suddenly opened its eyes, revealing gem-like green pupils.

Its dark green pupils spun once. The statue stretched and jumped out of the shrine. After landing, it expanded rapidly as if it was inflated. In the blink of an eye, it became a tall and burly cat general.

The cat general stretched its neck, putting one hand on its waist and the other on the hilt of its sword.

“I’m sorry, cultivator, for inviting you over in such a manner. Please forgive me for offending you!”

Its voice was unexpectedly gentle and kind.

Lin Shen was stunned. He hesitated for a moment and asked,

“Divine Lord, what can I do for you?”

“I need your help.”

The cat general didn’t stand on ceremony and went straight to the point.

“I have a friend in the secular world who’s being hunted down by villains. If possible, I would like to ask you to help save my friend.”

Lin Shen was stunned. He didn’t expect the cat general would make such a request.

From the situation that night, the cat general was much stronger than him. If even the cat general being ouldn’t solve the problem, what could he do?

As if sensing Lin Shen’s confusion, the cat general explained gently,

“I can’t interfere in the affairs of the mortal world, so I can only seek the help of cultivators.”

The cat general pointed at Lin Shen’s pocket, where the storage jade plate was.

“In return, I can help you remove the restriction of the God Seeking Token. From now on, you can use it to summon a fraction of my clone to help once every month.”

Lin Shen finally understood how the criminal from that night had obtained the God Seeking Token. That fellow had also made a similar deal with the cat general.

Recalling the capability of the cat general’s clone, Lin Shen couldn’t help but feel tempted.

It was a Long Breath Stage cultivator. At the critical moment, it could become a powerful trump card that could turn the situation around!

After hesitating for a few seconds, Lin Shen asked in a low voice, “That friend of yours… What’s his background?”

The cat general didn’t hide anything and answered truthfully, “It’s a spiritual cat that has gained intelligence.”

Lin Shen’s heart skipped a beat. “Who is chasing it?”

“It’s a group of villains who specialize in hunting spiritual cats. They call themselves the Night Grinders.”

The cat general’s eyes narrowed slightly. Its dark green pupils flickered with a cold light, and there was a hint of anger.

“This group of villains searches for spiritual cats that have developed intelligence inside and outside Dragonside City. They forcefully feed the cats manifestation pills and transform them into human forms. Then, they tame the cats and sell them to filthy places to become maids!”

“…”

Lin Shen recalled the Night Dream Club that Yang Zhongyi had brought him to not long ago.

Were those catgirls obtained through this method?

As for the Night Grinders…

...

Lin Shen knew the names “grinder” and “night deity”.

However, both of them were nicknames for rats.

The name ‘Night Grinders’… Did it refer to rats being more powerful than cats?

Suppressing the confusion in his heart, Lin Shen continued.

“How powerful are those people?”

“As far as I know, most of its members are Qi Transformation cultivators.”

Lin Shen nodded indifferently.

He had some reservations about the cat general’s information.

Even if the cat general didn’t lie to him, he couldn’t guarantee that the information was accurate. Divine beings weren’t omnipotent.

Even if the information was accurate, “most of them are cultivators at the Qi Transformation stage” meant there were cultivators stronger than that.

Lin Shen wasn’t afraid of any Qi Transformation cultivator now, but he still had to maintain reverence for higher-level cultivators.

...

He didn’t want to provoke enemies at the Long Breath Stage or even higher.

As if sensing Lin Shen’s concerns, the cat general said slowly,

“That friend of mine is currently in the North District, surrounded by that group of villains. You only need to help it break out safely and reach the East District.

“In return, apart from the God Seeking Token, I can also give you a powerful martial technique!”

The cat general’s last sentence made Lin Shen’s eyes light up.

“What martial technique?”

The cat general flipped its wrist, and a book suddenly appeared in its palm. On the front page were the words “Dragon Roar Through the Clouds”.

“This martial technique is a sound wave technique. It uses sound to injure and even kill people. It’s released by a Long Breath Stage cultivator with spiritual essence. It can also use sound to create vigorous energy, fighting back enemies without attacking or injuring them without making contact. In terms of power, it’s much more outstanding than your Blazing Sun Palm.”

Lin Shen was instantly tempted.

Just half a month ago, he was still worrying about where to find a martial technique to perfect his actual combat ability. Who would have thought he would run into one here? The timing was perfect.

Although this “Dragon Roar Through the Clouds” wasn’t the Physical Enhancement martial technique he wanted the most, it was equally powerful. More importantly, he could still use it after breaking through to the Long Breath Stage. It would become even more powerful after that!

Even so, Lin Shen still didn’t agree in a rush. He thought for a moment and said,

“Divine Lord, please forgive me. Can I give you an answer tomorrow?”

The rescue mission was quite urgent, but the cat general’s temper was unexpectedly mild. Hearing this, it didn’t flare up. Instead, it nodded with a gentle expression.

“If you make up your mind, take out the God Seeking Token from the storage jade plate. It’ll lead you to where my friend is hiding.”

“I see!”

The cat general didn’t say anything else. It nodded at Lin Shen and slowly dissipated into the air.

At the same time, the shrine and the surrounding fog also disappeared.

Not long after, the streets regained their clarity. The entire world seemed to have come alive all of a sudden. The sound of cars and people came from afar again.

Lin Shen knew he had returned to reality.

“Speaking of which, what was that just now? An array formation? Or an illusion?”
