A cat?

A cat that walks on two legs?

Whether it was Lu Baichi or Wang Meiling, including everyone else who saw the door open where this cat slunk out from, was dumbstruck.

Everyone considered many possibilities – an old expert who still held strength striding out, a middle-aged artifact refiner with a proud gait, or even a lively teenager. Any of these scenarios, no matter how implausible, could be grudgingly accepted.

But what the hell, why was a cat coming out the door?

Could the senior who was trying to breakthrough to the level of an artifact refining master actually be this insolent looking cat?

This idea was so ridiculous it made them gasp. It was immediately dismissed

by nearly everyone.

It couldn’t be a cat. Although the cat was fat and round like a ball, there was no way it could lift the giant artifact refining hammer. Surely there were people other than this increasingly irritating cat who were attempting to break through.

Growing more irritating by the moment…

Suddenly, someone exclaimed: “Scoundrel Cat!

Scoundrel Cat!

Hearing these words, everyone in the vicinity was taken aback. The nickname had almost the same reputation as Yang Zhen. Since their time on East Forest Island, a scoundrel cat always accompanied Yang Zhen. Both were equally preposterous and trouble magnets.

Wang Meiling looked with a peculiar expression at Scoundrel Cat. Her face was

a canvas of vibrant expressions.

Now that the Scoundrel Cat was out, it was almost guaranteed that the next one to appear would be Yang Zhen!

As expected, Yang Zhen walked out from behind Scoundrel Cat. He hadn’t noticed that the cat had stopped and almost stepped on it. His eyes went wide as if he was frightened by the expectant crowd.

That’s no surprise – anyone would be frightened by the sight of a thousand expectant eyes, especially someone like Yang Zhen, who was infamous for his unpopularity.

Seeing Yang Zhen indeed come out, Wang Meiling seemed to think of something. Her heart skipped a beat. She looked unbelievingly at Yang Zhen, whose eyes were also wide with shock.

For a moment, all the spectators gasped in surprise and looked at Yang Zhen in disbelief.

Why was Yang Zhen here?

Among the crowd, none were more shocked than Wang Meiling and Lu Baichi. Especially Lu Baichi who could almost see his eyeballs popping out. He glanced at a fellow practitioner beside him, whispering, “Yang Zhen, why is he here?” The practitioner was just as puzzled. After a moment of silence, he said solemnly, “I didn’t expect such good luck to come his way. Just arriving at Wanhua Island and he already witnessed a breakthrough attempt. Although the senior didn’t succeed, it’s still a great opportunity for Yang Zhen.”

Lu Baichi, uncertain and astounded, watched Yang Zhen. Suddenly, an alarming thought made him blurt, “Could it be that the senior who attempted the breakthrough was Yang Zhen?”

“You must be joking,” the practitioner looked at Lu Baichi with a strange expression, bursting into laughter, “Senior Brother Lu, when did your judgement get so poor? What’s Yang Zhen’s level of cultivation? How could it be him?”

Lu Baichi sighed in relief, laughed awkwardly, and said, “You’re right, I didn’t think this through. No matter how astounding a genius Yang Zhen is, how could he have such an achievement in artifact refining? If it were really him, the rest of us might as well give up cultivation and go hang ourselves!” Upon saying this, Lu Baichi glanced at the still perplexed Yang Zhen, saying, “Just look at his current expression and demeanor. He’s as clueless as an inexperienced lad who’s never seen the world. I really don’t get how the Water Moon Spirit Lady deemed him superior to me. The joke is on me for actually falling for it and challenging him!”

The practitioner laughed heartily, saying, “It just goes to show how questionable the Water Moon Spirit Lady’s judgement is!”

“Let’s cut the chatter and visit the senior who attempted the breakthrough.” Lu Baichi wore a sarcastic smile, looked at Yang Zhen, and said, “I wonder what he’s thinking right now.”

The two exchanged a glance, shared a hearty laugh, and walked towards the smithy with the crowd.

The reason Yang Zhen was late to emerge was that he had requested another hammer from the Great master, the heaviest one available in the smithy. It resembled a pickaxe, only much larger with a wider hammer face.

Yang Zhen was very satisfied with it. Even though it was just a normal hammer, the Chaotic Cyclone Hammer Technique he practiced didn’t require any special weapon. This technique emphasized controlling force.

Yang Zhen estimated the hammerhead to weigh about a hundred pounds. Even with his strength, he found it challenging to lift. Fortunately, he was just able to complete the Chaotic Cyclone Hammer Technique with one hand.

When he stepped outside, Yang Zhen was still immersing himself in the Chaotic Cyclone Hammer Technique. When he nearly stepped on Scoundrel Cat’s head, he was instantly stupefied, gazing in disbelief at numerous green eyes staring back at him. It felt as if a herd of a thousand alpacas ran riot in his mind.

Damn, are these people gossip hounds? Just practicing martial skills for a short while, and so many people gathered. What if one of the artifact refining masters was refining a spiritual-level weapon? Would it draw a sea of humanity?

Yang Zhen noticed even the little rich lady who had invited him and Scoundrel Cat to the Wanhua Feast was there. She was looking at him in surprise.

Since he had accepted her banquet invitation, though he never agreed to her conditions, Yang Zhen lifted his hand in greeting, his mouth splitting into a bright smile.

The next moment, Yang Zhen stiffened as if electrocuted, he hunched over and quickly placed his hand over Scoundrel Cat’s mouth.

No wonder this jerk Scoundrel Cat had halted, he must be scheming something.

Just as Yang Zhen had greeted Wang Meiling, he heard an audible intake of breath and instantly tensed.

Damn it, that sound was way too similar to Scoundrel Cat’s prelude to advertising on East Forest Island. Here, it wouldn’t yell anything like ‘East Forest Island’s pill refining is bankrupt’; but he was certain it wouldn’t be anything pleasant.

At that moment, Yang Zhen recollected all the times Scoundrel Cat had provoked him, which immediately enraged him. He changed his intention from silencing the cat to giving it a sharp slap on the head.

“Scoundrel Cat, you dare…”

“Lu Baichi, which son of a bitch are you? Come out, let’s fight!”

“Damn it!”

Yang Zhen’s slap whiffed through the air. It was evident Scoundrel Cat had already predicted this reaction.

Scoundrel Cat’s shout rumbled through like thunder, echoing down the street. In that moment, all were thunderstruck and stared at Yang Zhen, looking even more flabbergasted.

Wang Meiling’s eyes widened in astonishment. She immediately covered her mouth, staring in shock at Scoundrel Cat and Yang Zhen. Her eyes were full of complex emotions.

The next moment, the complexity in Wang Meiling’s eyes was replaced by amusement as she looked at the now ashen-faced Yang Zhen.

When she looked at Lu Baichi, who was still startled and staring at Scoundrel Cat, as if petrified. Even as everyone’s attention was turned towards him, he remained motionless.

He was utterly stunned!

Who could have predicted that Scoundrel Cat would start hurling insults as soon as it appeared? And do so in such a swift and earth-shattering manner, as naturally as breathing..
