The black cat was aggressive, and its overwhelming magical power was released from its body, forming smoky mist that enveloped it.

A giant male lion with a black ponytail slowly stepped out from the smoky mist.

The Nine-Life Cat Demon [Dark Cloud] revealed its adaptive form, showing sharp teeth and claws like black daggers, continuously emitting low growls as a final warning to Yang Yu.

If Yang Yu still refused to speak, it would fight until Yang Yu talked.

Yang Yu smiled helplessly while pulling out his sword and shield, preparing to battle.

Even if he told the truth, the black cat remained relentless, trying to extract something from him.

Since that’s the case, he could only attempt to make it suffer a bit.

Dark Cloud boasts a level of up to 150, a strength exceeding 5000, but its other attributes are considerably poor, with both defenses only over 1500 and speed barely over 2000.

It is not invincible at all.

”I am telling the truth, but since you won’t listen, there’s no other choice.

Don’t blame me for not holding back, and who knows how many of your nine lives remain.”

Just as Yang Yu’s words fell, the black lion roared and pounced at him.

Raising his shield, staying calm, Yang Yu stood still as a mountain, facing the charging Dark Cloud without a hint of fear.

The sharp teeth and claws of Dark Cloud seemed to directly target Yang Yu, but in reality, it was merely an illusionary strike.

Dark Cloud had already split a black shadow when transforming, which moved behind Yang Yu.

Substituting the shadow with its own position, Dark Cloud’s sharp teeth and claws struck at Yang Yu’s back, surrounded by a black electric current using [Dark Thunder Teeth].

[Dark Thunder Teeth], once hitting, not only deals damage but also induces a strong paralysis status, making Yang Yu immobile.

Dark Cloud was confident that at such a close distance, even if Yang Yu reacted quickly, he couldn’t escape the range of this skill.

What Dark Cloud didn’t expect was that Yang Yu never intended to escape from the start.

Adjusting the position of his shield, Yang Yu slammed it hard into Dark Cloud’s mouth.

Dark Cloud’s jaw nearly dislocated, but it gritted its teeth in pain to release the black electric current.

It’s over, a simple blow was enough to decide the victory.

Indeed, victory was already decided.

From the moment Dark Cloud decided to attack, victory was already decided.

As the black electric current wrapped around Yang Yu, a sacred light enveloped him, dispelling the black current.

Yang Yu had never said this was a one-on-one duel.

A one-on-one duel was such a hassle, and the opponent lacked martial integrity by attacking directly without saying a word; Yang Yu wasn’t inclined to show it any face.

Thorns grew from the ground, wrapping around Dark Cloud’s enormous body from all directions, making it hard to move.

Bai Jin’s Frost Ice Arrow followed closely, hammering onto Dark Cloud’s back.

How could Dark Cloud’s fragile defense withstand the damage from Bai Jin Magic?

Before long, Dark Cloud’s wails echoed throughout the dilapidated town.

Numerous thoughts flashed through Dark Cloud’s mind:

”Using many against the few, this is too despicable.

How did these thorns grow?

The Wisdom Inheritance Device was set long ago to be activated only by real humans.

He should be a real human, so why can he use skills of the Plant Clan?

Wait, are there real humans still in this world...

Could it be...some coincidence born over tens of thousands of years?

He can use the skills of the Plant Clan; did he use the Racial Essence of the Plant Clan...”

Dark Cloud’s body quickly shrank, darting out from the thorns, Bai Jin’s Frost Ice Arrow followed again.

Dark Cloud skillfully dodged, yet several sticky water balls shot from the side.

Using [Evasion Rapid], Dark Cloud dodged but was still hit on the foot by a sticky pale blue water ball.

Unnoticed, Yang Yu had reached its front, the sword blade wrapped in a black shadow, slashing down.

Dark Cloud abandoned attacking and defense, throwing itself belly up, surrendering,

”I surrender! I surrender! Stop hitting! Stop hitting!”

Yang Yu’s sword stopped abruptly, just a fingernail’s distance from Dark Cloud’s chest.

The opponent used many against the few, coordinated well, and the attacks were too dense to completely avoid.

The disparity in strength and numbers between the sides.

Continuing like this, it would undoubtedly lose.

That man clearly had murderous intent in his words just now; fighting till the end would surely cost one of its lives.

Better to lie flat and beg for mercy; maybe it could save a life.

It had many unique abilities, and as long as it found an opportunity, it would certainly escape!

Yang Yu put away his sword, but his companions around didn’t lift their attack stance, still watching fiercely.

Dark Cloud knew it wasn’t time to run.

Yang Yu thrust his sword into the ground, bent down, and picked Dark Cloud up in its cat form.

After much contemplation, Dark Cloud decided to act cute like a regular cat to make Yang Yu lower his guard.

However, as it looked up, it saw Yang Yu’s face saying, ”If you dare move around, I will crush you with my bare hands.”

”If you don’t want to die, answer my questions seriously.” Yang Yu smiled sinisterly, lightly pressing on Dark Cloud’s small ribs, causing it pain.

Even with its ribs pinched in pain, Dark Cloud dared not struggle recklessly.

Its instincts told it Yang Yu was serious, that man would really kill it.

”Hmm—?” Yang Yu’s smile grew more sinister, pressing down a bit harder, ”Why aren’t you talking? Weren’t you quite talkative just now?”

Dark Cloud’s ears seemed to hear its ribs cracking; it quickly shouted:

”Stop, stop! The ribs, the ribs are breaking, put me down first, ask your questions!”

”Do you think you are qualified to negotiate terms? You cowardly creature!”

Yang Yu pressed down a bit harder, causing Dark Cloud to howl in pain,

”Stop! Stop! The ribs are really breaking! I get it, I won’t negotiate anymore, ask your questions!”

Yang Yu relaxed his grip, ”If you said so earlier, wouldn’t it be better?

First, the initial question, you just said this is your job...

Tell me how to get to the Nine-Life Cat Demon’s kingdom!”

Dark Cloud waved its cat paw, pointing at Yang Yu, ”That’s quite a leap from your question; I thought you’d ask about my job content, not jumping to how to go to the Nine-Life Cat Demon’s kingdom!”

”Don’t waste my time; quickly answer my question.”

”Who wants to waste time, you bastard!”

”Hmm—?”

”Big brother, I was wrong...

The ribs are really breaking; how can you lay hands on such a cute little cat...

Aiya, I was wrong, I was wrong.... honestly, the ribs are breaking...”

Dark Cloud decided not to eat the fine wine but the penalty wine instead, and Yang Yu felt no compassion.

The opportunity rarely presents itself, and Yang Yu wouldn’t let it pass easily.

Yang Yu repeated the question:

”I’ll ask again, how do you get to the Nine-Life Cat Demon’s kingdom?”
