My Cat Has Superpower?!
Chapter 196 - 195: Ninth Master Saves the Day

Chapter 196: Chapter 195: Ninth Master Saves the Day

"Little bastard!"

Feeling Lu Zixun’s body temperature rising unstoppably, Xiong Kang panicked immediately.

Logically, he had sensed that Lu Zixun’s bloodline was stable just now, and everything would have been fine after this period passed.

But now, who was going to tell him what the hell was happening?

"You, do me a favor, go to the kitchen and get ice cubes, the more the better."

After hurriedly instructing a student wearing a Thousand Paper Cranes, Xiong Kang’s Spiritual Energy surged within him.

After finding the room Lin Siyin was in, he dashed over without delay.

"Bang Bang Bang!"

Xiong Kang, frantic, pounded on the door forcefully.

"Who is it?"

Gui Xiaomeng’s voice echoed.

The moment the door opened, Xiong Kang spotted Lin Siyin, who was also lying on the bed, face twisted in pain.

His heart "thudded," and instantly, Xiong Kang understood what had happened.

The awakening of the Spirit Beast’s bloodline allowed the strength of both parties in the Contract to advance or retreat together.

But the current situation was that Lu Zixun’s strength was too potent.

Whereas Lin Siyin’s strength was too weak to bear the reciprocal nourishment of the Contract.

Faced with this predicament, Xiong Kang had no idea what to do for a moment.

It was either Lu Zixun enduring until Lin Siyin made a breakthrough, able to withstand the Contract’s reciprocal nourishment, or Lu Zixun dying from his body exploding, resulting in both the human and the cat dying on the spot.

"Shit!"

Holding Lu Zixun, Xiong Kang roared in irritation, his entire being like a raging lion.

Just then, the person sent to fetch the ice cubes arrived, pushing a cart. Seeing Xiong Kang in this state, he dared not utter a word, left the cart at the door, and ran away.

Taking several deep breaths to calm himself, Xiong Kang lifted the ice cubes with his Spiritual Energy and rushed, holding Lu Zixun, towards the bathroom.

He dumped the ice cubes into the bathtub and placed Lu Zixun in it at the same time.

Simultaneously, he protected Lu Zixun’s bloodline with his Spiritual Energy, preventing him from dying due to his body exploding.

Through these actions, the expressions of both the human and the cat relaxed somewhat, but this was not a long-term solution.

Xiong Kang, continuously circulating his Spiritual Energy, was now drenched in sweat.

Lu Zixun was passively absorbing the Spiritual Energy he was infusing, leading to Xiong Kang’s dwindling reserves of Spiritual Energy.

"I can’t go on."

Thoughts growing increasingly blurry, Xiong Kang bit his tongue hard to keep his mind clear.

"Heir of the Purple Mansion!"

He shouted and flung his phone away: "Call a person called Ninth Brother and tell him what’s happening here."

"Got it... got it!"

Startled by the sudden roar, Gui Xiaomeng picked up the phone quickly and searched for Long Jiuri’s number in the contacts.

"I’ve informed him."

After hanging up, Gui Xiaomeng hurriedly reported to Xiong Kang, but by then, Xiong Kang was beyond speech, barely sustaining himself through sheer willpower.

"Are you trying to kill yourself?"

A faint voice rose beside Xiong Kang’s ear as the cool-faced Long Jiuri arrived at the Mountain Villa.

"Ninth Brother, save the Orange Cat."

After struggling to say this much, Xiong Kang’s vision darkened, and he fainted.

Lin Siyin’s Spiritual Energy Acupoint, empty as it was, soaked in the nourishment of spiritual energy.

Long Jiuri placed his hand on Lu Zixun and, after sensing his condition, frowned.

"How did an S-grade sign a life-and-death contract with someone who’s barely reached A-grade?"

He muttered to himself and pulled out something that looked like a pink gemstone from the storage talisman.

Under the light, the pink gemstone emitted a dazzling, brilliant glow.

"Mr. Jiu?"

Recognizing Long Jiuri, Qiu Yuebai called out with some uncertainty.

"Hmm?"

Glancing at Qiu Yuebai calmly, a ripple of emotion crossed Long Jiuri’s icy gaze, "You’re... from the Heavenly Master Mansion?"

With respectful nod, Qiu Yuebai replied, "Qiu Mingyue is my father."

"Oh."

He responded calmly and then sat on a stool beside Lin Siyin’s bed, after inserting the pink gemstone into Lin Siyin’s body, watching her quietly.

At that moment, the faces of both the distressed man and cat began to regain tranquility.

Once he was sure there were no issues, Long Jiuri stood up and stretched his neck.

His gaze suddenly darted to a spot in the room, he raised his hand and an ice blade appeared, chopping down ferociously.

"Mr. Jiu, spare my life."

A rat scurried out from the wall, tumbled and transformed into a human shape.

"Heavenly Mechanism Rat?"

Staring coldly at the person before him, Long Jiuri bound him with ice shackles with a wave of his hand, "What are you doing here? Helping the Insect Clan smuggle?"

"Even with my guts, I wouldn’t dare to do such a thing under Mr. Jiu’s watch," said the Heavenly Mechanism Rat, gesturing for mercy as he knelt on the ground, quickly clarifying his purpose, "I was on a bounty from the Spiritual Cat Clan, specifically to investigate the Swallowing Sky Cat Demon."

Sitting back down, Long Jiuri clearly became interested, "Go on."

"Then I saw the Swallowing Sky Cat Demon at the Gongsun Family and followed it here."

Sighing, sincerity appeared on the face of the Heavenly Mechanism Rat, "Just now, seeing the Swallowing Sky Cat Demon about to fail awakening, I was about to assist when Mr. Jiu arrived and even took the chance to catch me."

Speaking to the end, the Heavenly Mechanism Rat’s head drooped with discomfort.

Looking at the Heavenly Mechanism Rat with a smirk, Long Jiuri tapped the armrest of his chair lightly, "Not telling the truth?"

The scrutiny from Long Jiuri made the Heavenly Mechanism Rat laugh awkwardly with a hint of guilt, "Well, Mr. Jiu, our line of work isn’t easy, you see..."

Before he could finish, Long Jiuri interrupted him, "Hand over what you’ve taken here and get back to the Crimson Land."

The calm words made the Heavenly Mechanism Rat’s expression turn unsightly as he bowed to Long Jiuri, "Mr. Jiu, doing so doesn’t quite follow the rules, does it?"

"Not following the rules?"

With a light chuckle, Long Jiuri pressed down mightily, pinning the Heavenly Mechanism Rat to the ground, "Here, I am the rule."

The pressure was so intense that it made the Heavenly Mechanism Rat’s bones creak; within seconds, he began to plead for mercy, "I’ll hand it over, I’ll hand it over, Mr. Jiu spare my life."

His face returned to a calm demeanor and, with blood on his lips, the Heavenly Mechanism Rat retrieved a chip the size of a fingernail from between his teeth.

Giving Long Jiuri a resentful look, "I’ve handed it over, can I go now?"

"I don’t want that."

With a cold laugh, Long Jiuri shook his head, "I’ll give you one last chance, hand over the Orange Cat’s blood."

"This..."

Upon hearing this, the Heavenly Mechanism Rat’s face showed difficulty, and he said tentatively, "Mr. Jiu, I need to take the blood back..."

Before he could finish, the ice shackles tightened, and the Heavenly Mechanism Rat was locked in place.

A droplet of blood floated up from the Heavenly Mechanism Rat, and with a grip of Long Jiuri’s left hand, the blood evaporated.
