An unlikely team, Snake and Hamster, put their heads together to escape the pet store on the only day of the year there is no staff; Christmas.

A one-shot for a writing prompt - target length 1k words.

Lin Ha'er adalah anak perempuan mantan gubernur terhormat Lin Qiangkang. Setelah Lin Qiangkang dan Li Yuantao gagal menangani situasi politik. Li Yuantao pun memanfaatkan kesempatan ini dengan memfitnah dan mengatasnamakan korupsi, lalu mengambil posisi gubernur ini dari Li Qiangkang. Kemudian, para istri Li Qiangkang sudah pergi tidak karuan, bahkan semua keluarganya telah dipenggal.
Anak perempuan dari Li Qiangkang yang bernama Lin Ha'er ini berhasil membuat Li Yuantao, gubernur saat ini suka padanya. Sehingga dia membiarkan Lin Ha'er tetap hidup, dan menjadikannya istri keempat dari gubernur Penglaizhou saat ini.
Lin Ha'er meletakkan hamster kecil di pelukannya ke depan dua hewan peliharaan kecil dari istri kecil bangsawan Raja Huayou, sambil berkata dengan sopan, "Xiao Ciba, baik-baik menghibur dan menemani yang mulia Tuan Bao dan yang mulia Yuan Bao ya." 
Hamster itu sebenarnya adalah hewan peliharaan yang paling disayangi adik kedua Lin Ha'er, yaitu Lin Lian'er. Sebelum Lin Lian'er meninggal, dia minta Lin Ha'er untuk merawat dan memelihara hamsternya.
Seperti halnya dua chinchilla kecil, hamster yang bernama Xiao Ciba dengan patuh mengangguk pada Lin Ha'er. Raja Huayou memanglah Raja Huayou, di mana pun peliharaan istri kecilnya itu berada, mereka selalu sangat dihormati dan disambut layaknya Raja Huayou.
Hamster Xiao Ciba yang awalnya masih tidur, tiba-tiba ditepuk dan dibangunkan oleh pemiliknya untuk memintanya menemani para tamu terhormat ini. Namun, setelah lama tidak berjumpa dengan dua chinchilla itu, dia merasa kalau Tuan Bao sekarang benar-benar sangat langsing, dan semakin cantik.
Suami Chinchilla memandangi mata kecil hamster tersebut, yang terus memandangi istrinya yang cantik. Hal itu langsung membuatnya tidak senang, lalu dia berkata dengan kesal, "Eh eh eh! Xiao Ciba. Lihat apa kamu ini, hah?! Memang istriku ini bisa seenaknya kamu pandangi seperti itu, hah?!"
Tidak boleh lihat, ya sudah tidak lihat, cih! Istrimu cantik, terus itu hal yang luar biasa gitu?! Cih, aku nanti pasti akan merayu seekor hamster betina yang lebih cantik daripada istrimu untuk menghangatkan ranjangku! batin Xiao Ciba. 
Walaupun Xiao Ciba berpikir seperti ini, tapi di mulutnya hanya tampak senyuman sambil berkata, "Aduh, Yuan Bao, lama sekali tidak berjumpa denganmu. Kenapa kamu jadi semakin tampan seperti ini, sih? Sangat tampan sampai aku hampir tak mengenalimu."
Xiao Ciba, Yuan Bao dan Tuan Bao adalah teman sekampung halaman. Jadi, aksen bicara mereka sama. Yuan Bao dengan bangganya merapikan bulu di kepalanya ke belakang. "Benarkah? Hehehe, aku juga sudah biasa setampan ini," katanya dengan bangga.
Begitu dipuji oleh Xiao Ciba, Yuan Bao jadi sedikit malu. Dan dia begitu saja melupakan kejadian, di mana Xiao Ciba yang tadu memandangi istri cantiknya, bahkan melupakan sampai bersih dari ingatannya.

Bangunan Chiming, Kediaman Raja Huayou, 
Setelah Xuanyuan Pofan mengantar Liuli Guoguo ke halaman Liuli Guoguo untuk memberikan hadiah. Kemudian dia membawa istri kecilnya itu ke paviliun Ya di bangunan Chiming.
Saat ini, suasana di paviliun Ya sedang hangat sekali. Liuli Guoguo dan Xuanyuan Pofan sedang mengerjakan kegiatannya sendiri-sendiri dengan tenang. Xuanyuan Pofan sedang menulis lagi untuk menghafalkan buku suci pedang, sedangkan Liuli Guoguo tidur-tiduran di karpet yang tak jauh dari situ. 
Dengan tangan menopang dagu kecilnya, sambil membaca buku catatan pengenalan roh jiwa. Liuli Guoguo sudah berniat dan bertekad untuk membaca semua buku yang terkait dengan pelajarannya nanti, sebelum dia masuk perguruan tinggi Xing Yun.
Karena tidur-tiduran di lantai, kedua kaki kecilnya itu terlihat terbalik dan saling tumpang tindih, selalu bergerak dan tak bisa diam. Karena saat itu musim panas yang terik, Liuli Guoguo melemparkan sepatu brokatnya tersebut, dan hanya mengenakan kaus kaki tipis berwarna putih.
Pantat kecilnya yang bulat, dan sepasang kaki kecil yang tidak bisa diam ​terus saja bergerak dengan seenaknya seperti itu. Lalu, pemandangan ini masuk di dalam pandangan mata seorang pria berjubah hitam yang duduk di samping meja di belakangnya, yang sedang menyalin buku suci pedang.
Tenggorokan pria itu bergerak naik dan turun ketika melihat ini. Dia berusaha menahan pikiran jahatnya dan terus berusaha untuk menyalin buku suci pedang. Namun, saat baru saja menulis beberapa goresan saja, dia sudah tidak bisa menahan diri untuk mengangkat kepalanya, dan melihat kaki kecil yang tumpang tindih sambil bergerak tidak bisa diam dari tempat yang tidak jauh darinya itu.
Kaki gadis kecilnya itu sangat lembut. Rasanya Xuanyuan Pofan benar-benar ingin menarik kaki itu, lalu memainkannya. Hal tersebut membuatnya semakin gelisah tidak karuan. 
Ketika menyadari kalau dia telah memikirkan pikiran jahat lagi, Xuanyuan Pofan dengan cepat menampar dirinya sendiri dan melanjutkan menyalin buku itu. Hanya saja, pulpen di atas kertas itu tidak bisa digerakkannya, karena hatinya sedang terasa begitu gatal.
Liuli Guoguo ini benar-benar kucing kecil yang memikat! batinnya pria itu sambil terus berusaha melawan dorongan di dalam dirinya yang seperti itu. 
Namun, ketika Xuanyuan Pofan sudah sadar dan kembali ke akal sehatnya. Dia menyadari kalau dirinya telah menggambar sepasang kaki kecil yang indah di dalam kertas di atas mejanya.


Liu Li Guoguo seorang anak berumur lima tahun berlutut di depan halaman rumahnya sambil menjinjing ember berisi air panas. Dia melakukan itu untuk menyelamatkan ibunya yang ditangkap oleh pengambil jiwa, ayah Guoguo yaitu Liu Li Fu berjanji kalau Guoguo berhasil menjinjing ember berisi air panas selama habis terbakarnya tiga dupa maka ayahnya akan menyelamatkan ibunya dari pengambil jiwa. Sayangnya ucapan ayahnya itu hanyalah cara lain ayahnya untuk menghukum Liu Li Guoguo.
Kedua kakaknya Guoguo, Liu Li Fangfang dan Liu Li Pingping dan ayahnya Liu Li Fu selalu memperlakukan Guoguo dan ibunya dengan tidak baik. Di dalam keluarga itu hanya kakak keduanya saja yaitu Liu Li Tian yang selalu ada di samping Guoguo dan ibunya.
Ketika Guoguo berlutut di halaman, datanglah Kaisar timur Xuan Yuan Pofan yang terkenal dengan sebutan Raja Hua You dan adiknya pangeran kedelapan Xuan Yuan Poxi mengunjungi kediaman Cheng Zhu yaitu kediaman Tuan Liu Li Fu. Awalnya Xuan Yuan Pofan melihat Liu Li Guoguo yang dianiaya dia tidak merasakan apapun, sampai akhirnya Guoguo menabraknya dan memohon Xuan Yuan Pofan untuk menyelamatkan ibunya. Saat itulah Xuan Yuan Pofan melihat  mata dan wajah Guoguo dengan jelas, barulah dia sadar dia telah menemukan orang yang dicarinya selama 10 tahun ini.

The green poison that came out of the alpaca's mouth melted the ground.
Kai didn't blink as he somehow managed to create his Oscillation Shield and boosted its power a little bit. Normally, it would only reduce the impact coming from an attack, but because he poured more magic power, it was able to deflect the spat from earlier, throwing it back to the alpaca.
Unfortunately, unlike his Sound Blast, the Oscillation Shield couldn't blow it away, so most of the poison fell to the ground instead of hitting the alpaca. Nonetheless, the alpaca had died under Kai's blade, and he somehow managed to escape unscathed.
"Seriously?!" Kai took a few deep breaths before turning around.
Evan's heart skipped a beat when he saw that and felt he was pretty lucky to avoid that.
"Captain, are you alright?!"
"I'm good. Focus on defeating the rest first and head to the other two. I will explain later." Kai commanded while slashing the magical beasts.
Evan nodded and started picking up his pace, killing them at a faster rate than Kai.
In just three minutes, they finally finished dealing with all the beasts.
"How is your stamina?" Kai asked as soon as they finished.
"I am good." Evan nodded, assuring him by waving his hand nonchalantly.
"That's good then. Follow me. I will explain on the way."
"I understand."
The two then headed toward the southeast, where they would separate at a certain point to fight their respective battle.
"I am glad that your shield is fast enough. I am not sure if I can regrow something that has melted, you know."
"Yeah. That's why poison might be the most dangerous thing in the world." He nodded. "Anyway, my Oscillation Shield activation is faster than Sound Blast, so it's convenient. Unfortunately, it doesn't hold the same strength."
"I see. That's why you often use your shield instead of Sound Blast even though it's stronger."
"Their purpose is different too, so I don't want to be reliant on one magic."
"I can see that."
"Anyway, your enemy is over there. There is a chance that the enemy might ignore you and chase after me, so if you can, you should assassinate it at that time."
"I understand. Well, you only have fifteen minutes to kill the leader and the rest of the magical beasts. Do you think you can?"
"I am not sure now. From what I have seen, the magical beasts are becoming smarter than ever. I don't know what caused it, but that's the case. Just like earlier, where the dying ape released the last bit of its strength to grab my feet. The monster this time might be more troublesome than we expected."
"Hmm? But can't you avoid the movement by listening to them?"
"I can, but do you think I have prepared a scenario where they choose to bring me down together? At the very least, I can prepare a minimum counterattack, but there are too many possibilities on how to bring an enemy down together with a hundred beasts… At the very least, I need to make a simulation battle in my head first, albeit we don't have that much time." He let out a long sigh.
"I see."
"Anyway, it's time to go on our way." Kai reminded him.
"Good luck to you." Evan smiled and stomped the ground as he changed his direction according to Kai's.
Kai, on the other hand, kept running straight and only adjusted the angle of his direction a little bit to match the movement of the magical beasts.
Not long after, the group finally came into his vision as he checked on them first.
'Should I use my Sound Insulation Room so the magical beasts on Evan's side don't make an unpredictable move?' Kai muttered while observing the enemies.
The leader this time was a chinchilla. Just like the previous experiences, the chinchilla had the size of half-human, looking very ferocious.
And this time, the fur was red along with the eyes.
"Cruck!" Suddenly, a magical beast informed the chinchilla of Kai's position.
"I am found out?" Kai narrowed his eyes, seeing how it ordered the magical beasts to charge in his direction.
At the same time, it released a few fireballs toward Kai and had it explode around him, preventing him from going around.
"As expected, this guy is seriously becoming smarter… I need to prepare for the worst then." Kai let out a long sigh and checked everything in his surroundings.
Unfortunately, they were situated in the middle of a road, so it was hard to take advantage of the environment since there was nothing to be taken advantage of.
He jumped once to build up his momentum and charged toward the magical beasts, clashing with them head-on.
As he expected, the magical beasts were more ferocious than he expected. It might be due to the loss of the alpaca and grison, but he couldn't find any way that these beasts knew such a thing.
Unfortunately, he could think nothing as he kept swinging his sword while glancing over to make sure the chinchilla didn't do anything.
But to his surprise, the chinchilla had prepared an attack for him by summoning a few fireballs over his head.
"Does it want to drop it here? There are the beasts under him…" Kai exclaimed in surprise as he tried to leap out of this onslaught.
And as he expected, the moment he left, the chinchilla immediately threw all the fireballs at him.
Kai had prepared for this and used his Sound Blast to go one step faster, avoiding this.
He didn't dodge in a random direction. Instead, he went straight toward the chinchilla, trying to finish this as soon as possible.
Kai slashed his sword downwards, aiming at the direct head.
Suddenly, his sword was stopped by a wall of flame that received his Vibration Sword completely. Unlike the magic that had solid form, this one was intangible. The force that was bursting from that form somehow managed to stop his attack.
Every time he met a beast like this, it never ceased to surprise him. He needed to know the source of their power-up, but his teacher might be the one that could investigate it.
He raised his head when he sensed heat coming from above his head, finding three fireballs.
The three fell down.
'It dropped the balls?' Kai widened his eyes as he immediately used his Sound Blast to launch him to the sky before using the Sound Levitation to check his surroundings.
'Did it die because of its own attack?' Kai thought while hoping it was true. However, he couldn't sit still anymore because before the smoke was cleared up, many magical beasts used each other to leap to the air, trying to strike him down.
Due to this, he was forced to deactivate his Sound Levitation and fell down to the ground. He focused everything on his hearing and found the heartbeat of the chinchilla. It was weaker, so he didn't find it instantly after the explosion, and this might be the chance to eliminate it.
He leaped toward the chinchilla and slashed its head without further ado before he noticed a red-colored ball above its head.
The chinchilla used the last bit of its strength to create that unstable fireball that would explode as soon as it lost control. In other words, it would blow out when the chinchilla died.
Realizing this, Kai put out his Oscillation Shield as big as possible while preparing his Sound Blast to escape.
*Boom!*
The fireball exploded, and the flame would soon surround him. It was at this time the Sound Blast shone, sending Kai away from being surrounded by the flame.
With this, he managed to kill the magical beasts, but he didn't feel like a victor. Not only the beast kept pushing him back with all those suicide attacks, but Kai could only land a hit that didn't decide the match.
The smoke cleared up a bit because of the shock wave from the second explosion. Although it produced a new smoke, it wasn't as thick as the first one.
He couldn't find the chinchilla's body, so he confirmed it was dead and reduced to ashes.
To think he would kill the magical beasts with just a single opening, it felt surreal.
"Still, I have two jobs left." Kai glared at the magical beasts that he avoided once and started killing them as this was one of the jobs.
It took him a few minutes to get rid of every single beast that seemed to be scared of him as soon as the chinchilla died.
After killing them, he took a breather first and reassessed his situation and Evan's condition.
"The magical beasts' movements were too absurd. They immediately tried to commit suicide and drag me together without fighting back. It's like there is someone manipulating them to make such a move, but who?
"If I think about it, the only possible answer is the protectors, but I don't hear anything about them. And I think they are not in my range the whole time, so it's weird to see something like this. I wonder if the two armies are suffering from this?" Kai thought for a moment and let out a long sigh.
"Anyway, I can only investigate it later. I need to—" Kai suddenly fell silent when he listened to the battlefield. The soldiers pushed the magical beasts back. It even passed the place where he killed the alpaca.
"And this one is even more absurd. How easy it is to push them back?" Kai exclaimed in surprise before he found a single group with another one hundred monsters that separated themselves from the magical beast army and headed toward Evan.
With this situation, they might arrive soon.
"Not good!"

GGS-CHAPTER 409 FIVE ANIMAL PLAY

Previous ChapterNext Chapter

"You really did come at a good time, I was about to throw out that green fruit you gave me towards them. What would have happened if I did that?" Shi Qing couldn't help but complain after Wang Xiao and Shao Le took the two young people away and a curious look appeared on her face,  she didn't understand how she would have been able to protect herself by pinching a fruit and throwing it.

"Oh, you will know after you use it." Su Jing smiled.

"Again with the suspense." Shi Qing gave Su Jing a slight white look, but this green fruit should be valuable and should be quite useful, so she was reluctant to try it out in order to see the effect.

Anyway, Su Jing came out, Shi Qing did not go home so quickly. They dragged their shoes and played on the beach. In the evening, there were still many people on the beach.

"Gū gū gū" Accompanied by a cry, a cute little gray animal ran over here. Behind, there is a single ponytail girl chasing after it. Su Jing was afraid that the little animal would be trampled by someone, so he released his spiritual force and domesticated it instantly, and let it run straight to his feet. Su Jing bent down and picked it up. It screamed at Su Jing, looking cute.

"What is this, so cute." Shi Qing couldn't help but reach out and touch it.

"This should be chinchilla." Su Jing said.

"Chinchilla?" Shi Qing was stunned. She only knew that Miyazaki had an anime movie "My Neighbor Totoro" which had a Chinchilla. Isn't that a fictional lifeform?

"Oh, strictly speaking, this is a kind of rat. Its scientific name is the South American squirrel. Because it looks a bit like the chinchilla in Miyazaki's cartoon anime, it was later called the chinchilla." Su Jing explained it, and Shi Qing suddenly realized and took a closer look at it.

"That's my chinchilla, thank you for helping me catch it." The single ponytail girl ran over gaspingly. Wearing sportswear, she has a very slender figure.

"Here." Su Jing handed the chinchilla to the girl.

"Why, why does it act so good in your hands?" The single ponytail girl was surprised and looked at Su Jing, then suddenly her eyes brightened. "Ah, I know you. You are Taming Grandmaster Su Jing. You really deserve your reputation. You even tame my chinchilla at once. Can you teach me?"

"Have you only spent a small time with it?" Su Jing asked.

"I just bought it, from over there." The single ponytail girl turned back and pointed in one direction where more and more tourists were gathering. The secondary industry has also developed, and there are a lot more stalls, some selling nearby specialties, some engaging in toys and games, and some selling pets … Most of the stalls that buy pets are pet fish and chinchilla.

"You just bought it. Of course, it won't listen to you. You should be gentle with it, play with it more, don't yell at it. Don't beat it, it won't take long for it to love you back and listen to you." Su Jing said.

"Didn't you also just held him, how can it stick to you so much, Taming Grandmaster, can you teach me one or two tricks?" The girl tilted her head and asked with a cute look.

"…" Su Jing is speechless, this girl is really something.

"Junior Sister, aren't you embarrassed?" A burly middle-aged man came over and knocked on the head of a single ponytail girl, and said, "Since it's a unique skill, how can he teach it? Such a simple truth, can't you even think about it?"

"Ah!" The girl screamed and pouted at the burly middle-aged man.

"Are you two martial artists?" Su Jing asked, 'If the girl with a single ponytail has a lithe figure and looks like she has been trained, then this burly middle-aged man has definitely trained. Looking at the muscular figure and the steady pace and posture, I guess he has not only trained but really practiced kung fu. Moreover, they are so different in age that Senior Brother Junior Sister matches them.

"Mr. Su has good eyesight." The burly middle-aged man smiled and said, "We accompanied Master to come to Qingyun Town to recuperate our body. It was only a few days. We have heard Mr. Su's name many times and heard that Mr. Su is a Tamer, Chef, Ancient Zither Master, but I did not expect you to know martial arts."

"I just know a little about it." ​​Su Jing said modestly. He really didn't know much about martial arts. He just pondered and learned some Fighting techniques. His level is not high. It's just that his reaction speed and strong body are enough to overwhelm everyone. He couldn't help but ask, "What are your names?"

"Oh, I forgot to introduce myself. My name is Cai Wufeng. This is my Junior Sister Ji Xiaoting." The burly middle-aged man said and he turned and pointed away and said, "That's my master, Huo Hongyang."

Su Jing looked in the direction Cai Wufeng pointed to and saw a man about fifty years old, who was doing a punching routine. His movements were like tigers at first, then deer, then bears, apes, birds. At first glance, it seemed nothing special, but the more he discovered, the more coordinated and beautiful the man's movements become.

Many people around him were looking at him, but some looked at it for a while and then shifted their gazes, some kept watching but only admired, and some imitated a few tricks, but no one was really so concerned.

"What kind of boxing is your master doing?" Su Jing looked more and more surprised and couldn't help asking.

"Five Animals Play." Ji Xiaoting said proudly.

"This is the legendary Hua Tuo's Five Animals Play?" Su Jing was shocked. In fact, he had heard of Five Animals Play long ago and even saw others play in the impression. However, they all looked weird or playful. He never knew that Five Animals Play was so harmonious and coordinated.

"Wait, Huo Hongyang, that's a familiar name, where have I heard it?" Su Jing thought about it for a moment and suddenly his mind flashed and his mouth widened. Martial Arts Grandmaster Huo Hongyang? Although he looks very different at an older age, he should be right. How did he come here?

"Why did Master Huo come to Qingyun Town?" Su Jing said in surprise.

"Master's old injuries left when he was young relapsed and he needs to be rehabilitated. He doesn't like the turbid air in the city and he likes Qingyun Town beach very much. He feels that the air and animals here are full of spiritual energy, so he moved to nearby to recuperate. We also heard that Mr. Su is called Qingyun Town Young God of Cooking and Master wanted to try and eat your dishes." Cai Wufeng said with a smile.

"It's not difficult, I'll cook a few dishes for you later." Su Jing laughed and said.

"Really?" Both Cai Wufeng and Ji Xiaoting's eyes lit up. They have heard that this Qingyun Town Young God of Cooking seldom cooks for people. It is entirely based on his mood. It is difficult to eat the dishes he made. He originally just said this as a joke but he didn't expect him to agree so readily.

"Of course, introduced me to Master Huo first?" Su Jing said. In fact, the more he watched Huo Hongyang practice, the more emotional he got and he couldn't help but want to learn a few tricks. A master is a master. He can tell just by looking at him that Wu Long is nothing in front of this guy. He has played with Wu Long and has seen the so-called traditional martial arts they have learned. Su Jing is totally inconspicuous, but only by watching Huo Hongyang's Five Animals Play, he can't help but want to learn.

The middle-aged woman in the store insisted that she come in first, so Lu Yi Yun carefully pushed the door open, stuck her head in and looked. 
Other than the middle-aged woman, there were also three men in the store. A few kittens were playing in the corner on the floor. A golden cat was playing with a shiny, small object indifferently and looked as if she didn’t care about anything. Another cat with black and white stripes was popping her head in and out under the stairs: she felt that the black and white cat was quite similar to hers. 
A young, white dog was locked in the display cabinet, walking precipitously in circles. There was a hamster cage and a rabbit cage. The layout of the store looked exactly the same as shown in Snowy’s live show. She knew she found the right place. 
"Ex..ahem.. excuse me, is this the place that provides the cat bathing service?" She realized that she could not even talk. When she started talking, it sounded so strange and weird that she had to clear her throat to cover up her nervousness. She surfed online all day where she only needed to type, and when she spoke to Jasmine she could make whatever noise and Jasmine would respond. Neither chatting online nor talking to Jasmine required face to face interactions. 
Zhang Zian nodded firmly, "Yes. You need to bathe your cat?"
She responded, "Um…Do you take a cat like this?" Her voice was very soft. Fortunately, it was quiet in the store, but Zhang Zian could barely hear her. 
"Yes," he said, "Except for kittens that still drink milk and cats that are sick, everyone else is welcome."
"Great. I want to bathe my cat…" she said. 
At this time, Aunt Liu who was standing aside, stopped Lu Yi Yun, "Young lady, that’s not wise!"
Lu Yi Yun paused and realized that she was talking to her. She looked at Aunt Liu with tons of questions going through her mind. She didn’t know this middle-aged woman. Why would she start talking to her all of a sudden?
This was her first time in a pet store. In order to prepare for today’s big moment—bathing her cat—she watched Snowy’s live show, recorded it, and watched it again so she would not make any mistakes or run into embarrassments. She was pretty sure she didn’t see this middle-aged lady in the live show. The middle-aged lady was holding a cat. She didn’t look like a staff member nor did she seem to be a customer. Customers would at least have a cat bag; seldom would they carry a cat like her. 
Aunt Liu put on a warm smile and said to Lu Yi Yun, who was greatly confused, "Young lady, you have to ask for the price first. If you don’t ask for the price, what happens when you find out later that you don’t have enough money to pay? Did you see the news? Some people went to a restaurant and didn’t ask for the price. When they finished, the bill was over 10 thousand yuan. What would you do if that was you, right? You can’t spit out the food and turn it back into the dish on the table. Right?" 
Upon hearing Aunt Liu’s words, Lu Yi Yun agreed. She had not interacted with a stranger in so long that she forgot about the basics. 
"I forgot. Thanks for reminding me," she praised Aunt Liu politely. 
Wang Qian and Li Kun saw the whole story and had completely changed their impressions of Aunt Liu. At first, they thought that Aunt Liu was a caring person. Then, they were confused because she started to be mean, and now they were totally sick of her. She was totally unreasonable. She didn’t buy the service because of the price and now she was trying to talk people out of it. That’s a total disturbance to the store! What’s more, she was too good at pretending to be a nice person. 
Zhang Zian watched quietly. He was not surprised because Aunt Liu was that kind of person. If she didn’t try to ruin his business, then it was not like her. That was okay. He was about to tell Lu Yi Yun the price anyways. He didn’t expect to have customers spend 300 Yuan to bathe their cat every day. The bathing room was empty. If he could make something out of it, it was better than nothing. 
Aunt Liu’s smile was even bigger and her tone was comforting, "That’s fine. You look so young. I am guessing you have not had many bad experiences, so I just wanted to remind you. Look, you are very polite and your skin is beautiful. You would look stunning if you changed your hair and got a new pair of glasses."
Aunt Liu thought the girl would fall for her. However, she didn’t know Lu Yi Yun was a female otaku that was truly disappointed in the real world. She was immune from Aunt Liu’s tricks. 
"Hmmm…" Lu Yi Yun was just about to ask Zhang Zian. 
Zhang Zian pointed at the note on the door of the bathing room and simply said, "Self-service cat bathing, 300 yuan per use."
Aunt Liu was worried that Lu Yi Yun didn’t understand and she explained, "Young lady, listen! You have to pay 300 yuan for one use. You also have to bathe your cat on your own. He will not do anything to help."
Lu Yi Yun thought for a second and said, "but I don’t know how to bathe a cat…"
Aunt Liu started to get impatient. She spent all that time and the young lady wasn’t getting her point! She raised three fingers and emphasized, "300 yuan per use! It is 300 yuan!"
Lu Yi Yun nodded, "I know, but I don’t know how to bathe a cat…"
She was so confused. What on earth was this old lady was trying to do? 
Aunt Liu was astonished. Is this girl smart? A normal person should respond: What?! Why is it so expensive? This store is a rip-off. I am not coming here! I will expose you online about the rip-off. 
From Lu Yi Yun’s perspective, she was willing to spend all her money for Jasmine. She didn’t know the price in other pet stores. Even if she knew, she would not change her mind simply because Snowy picked this store!  Snowy’s selection of stores were all on the pricey side, but they were all super special and they never disappointed Lu Yi Yun. She believed in Snowy’s choice and came here because of her.  
Zhang Zian interrupted at the right time, "It doesn’t matter that you don’t know how. It is actually very simple. I will stay right by your side. If you get stuck, I will help you."
"Perfect." Lu Yi Yun’s reply was short. "May I start now?"
"Of course, please come this way." Zhang Zian pointed to the bathing room.
Lu Yi Yun walked right by Aunt Liu as if she didn’t exist. 
 "Should I pay now or later?" she asked.
 "Either way is fine," Zhang Zian said. 
 "I will pay now." She put her cat on the floor, open her wallet and pulled out some money.
Zhang Zian squatted down to look at her cat. "Nice cat. A hybrid of Persian and chinchilla?"
Lu Yi Yun smiled for the first time since she entered the store. "Thank you." It was her first time knowing what breed Jasmine was. 
Aunt Liu was shocked, thinking to herself, "She didn’t even respond when I praised her for her looks. Now this guy said something nice about her cat and she was thrilled? Why would she spend that kind of money to bathe her cat when she only wore lousy clothes?" 
Aunt Liu simply could not comprehend. 
All in all, everyone had a particular value in their heart. 
Aunt Liu looked at her cat as a pet that was not worth spending money on. Raising children could bring great returns when they grew up. However, raising a pet could never lead to material gain.   
To Lu Yi Yun, Jasmine was not only a pet, but a companion, best friend and a force pushing her to be a better person. This was how experience and value caused the difference in consumption. 
The former was not Zhang Zian’s target customer, but the latter sure was.

That night, Sam came out of an old house with a smile on his face. He just made a huge deal which will also give him some advantages.
Although, Black water is something he would destroy sooner or later, that doesn't mean he cannot use it for his own reasons.
The next day, the whole empire has rumours starting about something. Sam has destroyed the fields under the imperial authority due to his conflict with the emperor and because the officials are incompetent that they cannot catch Sam, they started taking their anger on Sam's friends and the people low level guards who are responsible for guarding the fields.
They are even planning on executing them. This rumour was fresh out of over and the people who have nothing better than gossip started spreading out like wild fire. Even the authorities started hearing the news soon enough and they started to panic.
They wanted to quell the rumours but the source is nowhere to be found.
Sam is using the Blackwater to do this. In a war particularly an internal war, the one with most information will have a higher chance to win. And one with the control over the information will have even higher possibilities.
Sam knew how deep the Blackwater penetrated into the empire and he has enough money to use them.
Now, the whole Black water will not only be providing intel to him, they will also be manipulating the information according to his wishes.
This will make things very much easier for him and after that, there was another news that spread that Sam is in the Indigo city.
The officials of the Indigo city got alerted and didn't know how to react. General Fischer though started his journey towards the Indigo city.
Meanwhile, Sam is far away from the Indigo city and is now catching the Long-tailed chinchilla.
This chinchilla is unlike other rodent species. Generally, the rodents will be a bane to all types of vegetation but this chinchilla is a boon for them.
This chinchilla is a natural fertiliser machine and that fertiliser is something that works wonders.
The Long-tailed chinchilla generally feeds on all kinds of plants whether they are spiritual herbs or not. And the excrement of this chinchilla has a sixty percent chance of producing a seed of the herb it consumed or the excrement will be a highly valuable fertiliser for the same kind of plant.
But the problem is if they eat spiritual herbs, they would be dying soon due to spiritual energy poisoning and their carcasses are something that the beasts would go crazy about. But the problem is the plants that grew off of these excrements will not be too pure and they would be like a mass-produced knockoff compared to a handmade antique.
So, nobody would use these for cultivating herbs and when they are in the forests, they would increase the vegetation a lot which would attract all types of herbivore beasts and which would in turn attract the carnivores. This small rodent can start a food chain in a place.
But the main ability of these chinchillas that attracted Sam here, is that their digestion. They are almost incapable of diarrhoea. Yes, they actually don't take the nutrient content of any plant rather they would take the vitality of the plant that too not completely. This is the main reason for their excrements to have this type of quality.
And why does Sam need these and not just one? That is for the next operation, he is going to use these small harmless chinchillas and these would be one of the major players too.
 They are going to execute the operation and Sam doesn't even have to do much work.
After four days, he went to the place where he planned to meet with Watt and Jack. They are already waiting for him there and what is Philip doing, he is in the library.
He is in the library browsing through all the Artisan data.
Even though, he is already a Great realm cultivator, he is still fixated on being an Artisan, Sam doesn't have many objections. Even though, the information is valuable, Sam doesn't have a problem sharing it with a friend.
And now he doesn't have much to do anyway.
The Place Sam met with Watt is the north-eastern corner of the southern Star Dukedom and last main source of the Dukedom.
That is right, this is Sam's last target in the southern star.
Authorities are having a misconception that Sam is destroying all their resources one by one, but no. Sam is destroying only the main resources of the Southern Star. The main income and the supply sources right under the imperial authority.
He doesn't have time or energy to mess with the minor resources of the southern star. And the presence of these minor resources is going to be one of the players in his big plan, so he is not going to deal with them.
Now he is in a town named the Miner's town. The name of the town is self-explanatory. Near this town, there are many metal mines and this place is where the miners and their families stay.
The majority of the weapons, armors and all kinds of war supplies that uses metals get their source of metal from this town.
The elemental metals are not that common and most of them use the neutral metals. The elemental metal wines are completely under the Artisan tower control as they leased them from the empire that is for almost a century.
How does Sam know? That is one of the perks of being an Artisan that too a high-level one. Chaya gave him this information.
Now, these mines are going to utter waste at least the people of the empire.
Because, Sam is going to use a plant and the Chinchilla in combination.
Yes, the Plant that Watt and Jack went to get.
This is looks just like a type of grass and it grows where the mineral content is high, particularly a metallic one and an abundance of rocky terrain. This plant has another function and that is releasing some kind of gas.
This gas is invisible and it causes extreme nausea.
The main advantage is that this grass doesn't even grow that long.
It will grow very short and in very small creeks. It doesn't even take that long. Even though, due to its size the gas expulsion is not that effective and only works in the smaller range, the mines are places where the space is compact and dark.
This place is an extremely great place to use this.
In this place it is extremely great to use this, since getting rid of it is also difficult. As for just burning the whole thing, it is actually a worst thing to do, because if it burn in a large quantity, there would be some serious diarrheal affects for the inhaler and the entire Miner's town wouldn't be able to escape from the effects.
If inhaled in high amounts, even the Nascent stage cultivators will have bear the suffering.
But before he does that, Sam has to train these chinchillas.
Even though, he doesn't like doing this, he has to and at least these chinchillas wouldn't be seriously harmed.
Right now, Sam is using the negative reinforcement training.
He placed all kinds of plants that these chinchillas eat along with the Nausea grass. If these chinchillas eat any other plant than the Nausea grass, they would receive a splash of water from Sam.
This went on for two days and after that, Sam had the shadow mice over and explained them how things work and what to eat what not to eat.
Why didn't he tell them earlier? The chinchillas don't have as high intelligence as other beasts, they only act on their instincts.
After two days of explanation. Sam left these chinchillas discreetly in the mines.
But he didn't leave them by themselves, he stayed in the mice for the next week along with these chinchillas. So, that they won't die in the hands of the miners, but his worries are unfounded, the miners didn't care much about the rodents because they are actually looking exactly like a type of mouse species that live in mines.
And since the miner got used to them, they didn't care much about chinchillas.
After a week in the mines, Sam caught all chinchillas back and went away.
He visited one of the abandoned mines and made a mark on it.
"SAM WAS HERE."
His friends all sat there and had a barbeque in the open.
 As they drank some fresh fruit juice along with the beasts.
Sam laid down and was thinking how far he has come since the start of his journey in this world.
It has been three years and now he is starting a fight with the whole empire. The Emperor who can kill him in a wink is now his enemy and not only did he piss him off, he is playing with the whole empire and making him even more mad and now he is have barbeque out in the open with his friends.
"What is our next plan?" Philip asked.
"You are asking as if you are doing something. You are going to hole up in that library again."
Before Sam could reply, Jack already fired back.
"I am trying to increase my arsenal of knowledge so that I can work better in the future, what the hell do you know?" Philip said in mock anger.
 "Okay, stop it. We have to see the results of the work before going anywhere. So, we will wait for a while and see how the Empire will react."
"Then, we are on leave till then. Hurray."
Philip started cheering.
"Tssk. Like you care. You are on holiday from the start." This time it is Watt.
"Watt, you are also going against me? Don't think I would beat you up."
"Like, hell you can beat me up. I am not afraid of you."
Just like that, the four youngsters who are in a war with the empire are having barbeque while cheering and bickering.

We dined in the neat, tiled modern kitchen of a big family with faded photos on the wall. Everything was white tiles and stainless steel and glistening wood. We washed our food, we helped to move hot rocks and cook things and serve them on clean plates. We cooperated and made smalltalk although every day the elephant in the room was Chan had choked one of our group to death – at least he'd killed the concept of somebody. 
I stared at my midwife-bot while Watson helped Chan and Esther and KT to plate the food. Eli came and sat with me and we gossiped about smalltime stuff, like KimYe's grandchildren and Tay-Tay's greatest hits and fluffy, time-killing, gentle stuff. We talked about old soccer matches we'd watched, about the Olympics, about popes and sex scandals. We took our minds out of the biodome. 
When Chan served up the chinchillas Watson had helped him barbecue with chilis and garlic, with platters of wild zucchini and carrots and oranges, we took our seats at a plastic table. It was circular, had a basin of green felt in the middle and it had cup holders and plastic slots for cash. It was really a poker table, but it was better than nothing. 
We were about to eat when I noticed an empty space. I was supposed to take my seat as the Head of the table. 
'I'm not sitting there, you guys,' I told them. 'I lead from the back. I'm not special-er. Someone's going to have to move.'
Esther spun her fork in a circle and didn't look at me as she said, 'Why don't you ask your dad who he wants to sit there? He's the one who put us in this hole.'
KT dredged up some cheeriness, brushing her lap clean, perfecting her posture, convincing herself that she was on camera and had to be all chirpy. 'Eli, you'd make a splendid king?'
'I serve the king of kings already,' Eli said. 'Ede, what's going on? Everyone voted for you.'
I lost my temper, waking Hope up. She began to scream from the next room, where I'd put her on a mattress. 'For crying out loud: We do not need some lord. We do not need some president or whatever. Gawd.' I kicked KT and she got out of her seat. 'Move your stupid ass, KT.' I took her seat, relieved now that I wasn't standing over everyone. 'See? You just lost your seat. This rudderless worshippy thing you're doing? It's got to stop. Just be happy with who you are. Worship yourselves for a change.'
Without thinking about cutlery, I pressed my fingers into the oily, crispy guts of a chinchilla and tore off a hunk of flesh and chewed it. 
Esther stared at the beautifully-presented, colourful, steaming banquet like she'd witnessed a murder. 
Everyone was silent until KT – who had found a barrel to sit on, refusing to assume the leader's empty chair – said, 'Guys, we should have a toast. This is the first time we've eaten together since the Golden Age.'
Everybody toasted except me. I told Watson to take Hope out of the house for a couple of minutes. I had something important to deal with. 'There never was a golden age, retard. Sorry to burst your bubble. KT: who was the biggest loser in our group?'
KT said, 'Ad-' then shut up. She'd been programmed to never criticise Adam. 
'Eli?' I couldn't help poking him with my fork. He owed me some pain. 'Who was the coolest?'
'My boy over here.' Eli nodded at tarnished Chan. The bearded homeless-looking boy kept his eyes low and humble and chewed a chinchilla leg. 
'That's the thing, you guys. There were 12 of us. Everyone had a place. Everyone was cooler than someone else. We had people at the top, right? Well guess what: if there's a top, there's a bottom. And Adam was at the bottom. He was like – god, I dunno – he was like some dirty old grapes. We stomped on him to get wine.' Everyone thought about this for a moment, heads bowed as if praying. 'I loved my cool group – LOVED it, d'you understand? But that's the messed-up thing about society. When you tread on others, when there's like – what's the word? Pecking order, yeah. Hierarchy. When you stand on people, you may go up, but you're not just flattening the person you're standing on. You're pushing that person somewhere else. '
Esther glared at me. 'Not as if you were on the bottom, Ede.'
'THAT'S WHAT I'M SAYING. I HATE MY OLD SELF. HATE HATE HATE. I like my new self. I like Hope. I like being a mum. So, so, so… .' I blew my nose on my shirt. 'So I'll be your mum, you guys. But I don't want winners in this group. I don't want losers. I want equals. I want family. And this family eats dinner together. So EAT.'
Eli took a piece of the pet meat and chewed it. 'Tastes a bit like chicken,' he said. 
'Tastes like stupid old chinchilla,' Chan mumbled. 
'Es, you used to have a pet chinchilla, didn't you?'
Eli played the game. 'I think it was called Chewbacca, wasn't it?' he said, munching. 'Mmm, Chewy.'
I burst out laughing, KT covered her face to stifle her splutters and Watson scanned everybody, recording our interaction. Chan tried to give his girlfriend a kiss on the cheek to make her feel better. She pushed him away and I imagined I'd won something. Esther glared darkly at me. Finally she took a zucchini and swallowed it, grimacing.  
I'd broken the ice. Everyone ate something, and we respected each other, and soon more jokes came and even Esther lightened up. Chan said he would help catch more chinchillas tomorrow if his arms weren't too shaky. Even Watson took a seat and processed some food in the grinder at the back of this throat. 
'Hey, dude, can I ask you a question?' KT said, pointing her fork at Watson, swaying as if she was tipsy. 'Like, be honest: do mechs go to the toilet?'
Everybody guffawed. Bits of chili and orange peel fell out of Eli's and Esther's mouths. Watson – who didn't laugh –  explained that he has the same digestive tract as everybody else, it's just that his digestive enzymes are better tuned so there��s less gas when he processes food in his intestines. Eli laughed hardest, thumping the table so hard he almost knocked a bowl off. 
Then KT cleared her throat and took a sip of energy drink. 'I just want to say, I have $40,000 in the letterbox at number 183 Vine Street,' she said. 'I mean, forget about it. I thought it would be cool if everyone shares, you know? Shares where their investment is. Shares their secrets.' She smirked at me. 'Hedge funds, everybody?'
'Yeah!' Esther said, her eyes bulging. 'Adam's got mad stacks hidden somewhere but we don't know where.'
 'Bust it out for Christmas, I say.'
'CHRISTMAS! Hell yeah.'
'There's Maeve's money too, don't forget,' Chan said, 'No Christmas without the dinero, y'all. I always thought she'd stuck the big bills where the sun don't shine, know what I'm saying?'
'Or in the garbage,' Eli said, 'No one would rummage through garbage.'
'Ede?' KT asked from across the table, 'Can we do this? Can we make something great out of all the B.S.?'
I muttered some Sojourner Truth stuff to myself, as if I were babbling in tongues. Sojourner Truth stood up against assholes when they treated her like less than human because she was an abolitionist, and black, AND a girl. If the first woman God ever made was strong enough to turn the world upside down all alone, Sojourner once said, women together ought to be able to turn it back , and get it right side up again.
I kept that little mantra to myself. Everyone waited for me to rule. I went and checked on my baby, I stretched my neck, I rolled my head around, I looked to Watson's eyes for an indication of what he thought. Finally my people's eyes were boring into me and I couldn't take it anymore. I cleared gunk out of my throat and swallowed it. 'I've made my decision. We're gonna turn things right side up.'
'Tell us.'
'TELL US, EDE.'
'My decision is we shouldn't talk about money at the dinner table. Chan, would you pass the chinchilla, please?'

12 friends. 12 million bucks. 12 months. 
No food. No adults. No backing out.

***
Eden Shepherd was promised a million bucks and a year with her best friends in a biodome experiment controlled by sinister artificial intelligence. No one told her there would be no food, no banks for her money, no law, and no backing out.

Xia Qinghan was shocked and hopeful when she saw Pudding leap towards Xia Xibei.
What if Pudding scratched Xia Xibei and ruined her nasty face?!
What Xia Qinghan hated the most was Xia Xibei's face. Every time she saw it, she felt uncomfortable.
If she was truly scratched by the cat, she would be affected, maybe even needing surgery later on.
Thinking of this, Xia Qinghan became very excited.
However, as soon as she had this vicious thought, she was dumbfounded.
Pudding swiftly landed, and before anyone could react, it flew into Xia Xibei's arms.
"Meow!"
Honey was lying in Xia Xibei's arms, drowsy from being caressed, and its eyes were almost squinted.
Suddenly, sensing an unfamiliar scent, it opened its eyes. As it watched an equally pretty cat rushing toward it, or more accurately, Xia Xibei's arms, it suddenly became angry!
Its claws opened and a cat vs. cat fight began.
People watched Honey slap Pudding to the ground with two swipes!
But that wasn't all.
Honey soon broke free from Xia Xibei's arms and punched Pudding angrily.
"Meow! Meow!" it screeched. 'I will beat you!'
"Meow~" Pudding was caught off guard, only able to dodge left and right for a while. It gave out helpless cries but couldn't avoid Honey's attack.
Everyone present was dumbfounded at seeing the two cats fighting!
Actually, it was a Chinchilla cat who was unilaterally beating a Ragdoll cat! It was adorable in its fierceness, and not to be messed with!
What the-
The Chinchilla cat and the Ragdoll cat were both very docile cats. They rarely fought, so why were they fighting now?!
"Stop fighting!"
Pudding's owner felt distressed, as her baby was beaten without any strength to fight back. This would simply kill her!
However, she didn't dare to go up too rashly. If this Chinchilla went nuts, she might be scratched!
"Honey! Stop!"
Xia Xibei was also stunned by Honey's outburst. Recovering, she hurriedly called out for them to stop.
However, Honey was still upset.
What did this cat want? Was it attacking it or its big treasure?
Honey wanted to continue punching but was suddenly plucked up by the neck by Xia Xibei.
When Xia Xibei acted, everyone took a deep breath.
When cats and dogs were fighting, most people couldn't get involved. Even if the fight wasn't lethal, it would be awful if you got scratched. If your face was hurt, it would be even more troublesome.
Under everyone's horrified gazes, Xia Xibei's hand moved to lift Honey up.
Being caught by its weak spot, Honey waved its paws twice in the air, then dropped down in vain, looking a bit pitiful.
"I'm telling you to stop fighting!" 
Xia Xibei wanted to laugh. Honey was getting bossier and bossier!
"If you hit anyone… Any cat, I'll stop playing with you!"
With these words, Honey's pupils shrank, and its body became tense.
"Meow!" it yelled immediately. Its body softened and its voice was full of grievances, begging for mercy.
It was that little b*tch who started the fight!
Xia Xibei couldn't even react. Pudding just wanted to get close to her.
Because she was off in a remote area, other cats and dogs did not react much after being comforted.
However, Pudding had just been brought towards her by Xia Qinghan, so its reaction was a bit enthusiastic.
Too bad that it met Honey and was almost overwhelmed.
Pudding's owner quickly picked up the cat and looked at the scratch marks on its body, feeling heartbroken.
Regardless of how she felt, she still couldn't blame Xia Xibei.
After all, her cat had started the fight.


In her former life, she was robbed of her status, her looks, and her reputation.
Reborn, she is now a top scholar, and queen of the entertainment world. She will teach the fake girls a lesson and show the creeps how to really live life!

Chinchilla made use of the games visor and a human's identity to enter Closers World. He discovered he had become a dark, short and fat guy in the Beginner's Village.
Then he looked at the surrounding players and found all of them to be dark, short and fat. They looked different from the humans on Earth.
"Is this a dreamscape?" Chinchilla sensed the situation in Closers World. "Giggle made an awareness country? This is prohibited."
An exclamation was heard from the surrounding and Chinchilla turned his head to see a group of dark shorties gazing at a white clean fat guy walking by.
"D*mn, this guy's white."
"He obtained the pure white skin item."
"This item's a treasure of a level 20 dungeon. The game has only gone online for a few days. He's very strong."
Chinchilla frowned as he could not understand the concept of online gaming. He could not figure out why they were exclaiming.
He did not know that in Closers World 2.0's design, all beginners started as short, fat and ugly. To become beautiful or handsome, they had to conquer dungeons and complete missions to become taller, fairer, more beautiful and handsome.
…
In Zhao Yao's cafe.
Zhao Yao was sitting in front of the computer studying the games company's data about Closers World.
"The online gamers had breached 10 million and it's still growing." Zhao Yao nodded with satisfaction. "The servers' capacity have to be expanded. Hehe, with the current trend, it's a matter of time before the numbers reach one billion." 
He stroked his chin and thought, "Making Closers World as a dreamscape, I wonder if there's a limit for number of players? Is it able to sustain a billion people's awareness?"
Zhao Yao thought that he should find time to research Closers World's capacity.
He turned to look at Ning Ning and said, "Hey, you've mopped the floor beside me for half an hour. Tell me if you have things to say."
Ning Ning smiled in embarrassment as her eyes glanced at the computer's date and time. "Good, my time was not changed."
After witnessing the endless work situation of Sun Jian and his companions, Ning Ning was suspicious daily as she was worried if she worked for nothing for the day.
She smiled and said, "Nothing, continue with your work and I'll continue with the mopping."
Zhao Yao frowned at Ning Ning as she left. "She's acting weird and mysterious."
Matcha jumped into Zhao Yao's arms and said, "Zhao Yao! Latte's playing Closers World every day. Could you ban his game's account?"
"Yes." Cheese stood beside Zhao Yao and said, "Rice Cake hadn't gone offline for two days. I'm worried she may die of exhaustion."
"Two days online?" Zhao Yao was surprised. "Did she eat, drink or use the bathroom?"
Seeing Cheese nodding, Zhao Yao said, "That's alright if she's eating, drinking and using the bathroom. Closers World's similar to dreaming and has a restorative effect. She will not die of exhaustion."
Matcha said, "If they play computer games daily, won't they waste their talents? If they don't know anything, what are they going to do when they grow up?"
"Yes, exactly." Cheese said, "Zhao Yao, please help. Ban their game accounts."
Zhao Yao shook his head and said, "My games company will not ban game accounts without reason."
Matcha said, "How about duration restrictions? How about half an hour per day for kittens?" 
Zhao Yao stroke his chin and thought, "Duration restrictions?"
"Yes." Cheese nodded his head and said, "Cats below five years of age should only be allowed to play for half an hour." He thought, "If Rice Cake could get rid of her internet addiction, she'll have more time to lick my fur and play with me."
"Below five years of age?" Matcha was unhappy as a lot of his friends were unable to access Closers World. "Five year old cats are already halfway in their graves and they aren't adults?" 
Matcha looked disdainfully at Cheese. "Rice Cake's quite old. She's no longer a kitten."
"What? What about Rice Cake? She's still a kitten in my eyes."
Zhao Yao waved to interrupt both cats. "Enough. Whether it's human or cats, I won't set duration restrictions. Both of you may leave."
After pondering, Zhao Yao added, "Don't worry, I'll expand the supercats' academy. They'll study during the day and play in Closers World during bedtime."
As Y Academy's marketing officer, Matcha was surprised. "Ah? Y Academy's expanding? Why was I not informed?"
"Hmm." Zhao Yao nodded and said, "I've decided with several large countries to develop supercats' nine year education. We hope the supercats to start schooling from six months to nine years of age."
Cheese was speechless.
Matcha was shocked. "D*mn it. Aren't we stuck in school for most of our life?"
Zhao Yao nodded and said, "Yes, it's a joy to be in school. Once you are enrolled, you'll understand. Once you've graduated, you'll be nostalgic of your schooling days."
Matcha was even more astonished. "We've got to go to school?"
Zhao Yao said, "Nonsense. You're not above nine years of age. Take a few days to study. You'll need to take the streaming exams for your level."
Matcha hugged Zhao Yao's leg with a pitiful face. "Zhao Yao, please don't let me go to school. I don't want to study. I want to keep you company every day."
"No."
Matcha kept his wits. "If we study, what about the business at Cat Wonderland Street? We've to work." 
"I've thought about that." Zhao Yao said, "We are pushing for joyful, quality and a reduced load education. You'll be dismissed from school at 2:30pm and start work at 3pm until 10pm at night."
"You study in the day and work at night. Your life would be more fulfilling."
Matcha cried as he said, "D*mn if I'll be fulfilled."
Matcha and Cheese left dejectedly. When they returned to the Extradimensional Belly, they saw Uncle Egg smiling merrily as he said mysteriously, "Someone in your home's addicted to the internet?"
"Not respecting their father and brother?"
"Getting more rebellious and disrespectful?"
Uncle Egg smiled and said, "With more kittens addicted to the internet and gaming, Roly Poly and I started the Internet Addiction Clinic to treat internet addiction. Do you want to try?"
Uncle Egg's tail glimmered with blue electrical sparks.
…
In the cafe, Diana returned to the material realm from Closers World and shouted at Zhao Yao, "Zhao…. Zhao Zhao Zhao Zhao…"
"What's happening?" Zhao Yao looked at the Level 22 Diana and caressed her head as he said, "You're a Level 22 supercat. Be more mature."
After Closers World went online, Diana's level skyrocketed. She was immune to 99% of all physical attacks and her power-up factor was 220%.
Zhao Yao estimated that the upgrades were not unlimited. After increasing five levels, Diana would reach a new bottleneck.
Diana shouted loudly, "An alien cat intruded Closers World!"
"What? I have to ban his account. Wait…" Zhao Yao waved his and said, "Don't act recklessly. I'll monitor him for 24 hours and look at the situation."


"Let go of that kitty cat!"

A shooting star whizzed through the sky, causing countless super powers to appear on Earth.

However, the main characters that awaken during this phenomenon aren't humans, but cats...

During this event, this same thought appeared in the minds of countless cats: "Am I a god?"

Zhao Yao, an ordinary human, is the only person that can control these super cats.

Zhao Yao: "Am I a god?"

………………

TL's Intro：

Zhao Yao, the protagonist of the story, is the most ordinary man you could possibly imagine. Since graduating from college, he had been engulfed by his bureaucratic workplace and its toxic environment. To make things worse, he has neither a car, money nor a girlfriend. The only silver lining was his fat and lazy cat, Matcha, which provided a semblance of company and friendship.

However, things were about to change drastically for Zhao Yao and Matcha. One shooting star will transform their lives into anything but ordinary.

Even before leaving the woods, everyone could see a green radiance gushing toward them.
"Get into your formation! Get ready to kill!" Qi Ziting shouted.
"Kill!" Thousands of winged cavalry warriors shouted at the same time while tree branches and leaves were thrown into the sky, seemingly forming a green pillar where everyone's murderous spirit was concentrated.
The trees and rocks ahead of them had all been flattened as they charged toward the incoming butterflies.
These jade-waisted slaves fluttered in the air, occasionally brushing past the soldiers.
The winged cavalry wielded weapons such as maces, giant axes, blades and truncheons. Some of them even used the thigh bones of beasts as weapons as well. These warriors wielding large weapons against the small enemies were like bears dancing with butterflies.
The situation didn't look very positive.
To the strong and boorish winged cavalry warriors, they detested these small and nimble opponents the most.
Besides, the jade-waisted slaves greatly outnumbered them, and with one glance, a person could see at least several thousand of them.
Fortunately, on average, they were only at the Man Wheel level or slightly below. Even though they were nimble, their acceleration was much slower compared to the winged cavalry warriors.
Even though the situation wasn't positive, the winged cavalry were still able to drop about 100 of the butterflies every minute.
There were several thousand jade-waisted slaves against 1,600 winged cavalry warriors. As such, their movements seemed pretty slow in comparison.
"These demonic butterflies are in a formation!" Ren Baqian realized this after taking a glance.
Even though a large number of them had fallen, they still remained in good order.
Besides, there was also a flute-like sound coming from afar at the moment. This was probably how the herdsman commanded the butterflies.
"That's right!" The empress nodded. After Bor died, the jade-waisted slaves lost their direction and didn't know what to do. They ended up circling around the mountain and were easily exterminated by the winged cavalry.
The bodyguards behind Ren Baqian opened a box and tossed a large number of bottles over. As the pesticide filled the air, changes started to occur. The butterflies in the air started to slow down.
Slowing down at this moment meant death.
The butterflies started dropping to the ground like falling rain.
The winged cavalry warriors on the battlefield began to burst into laughter. Even though these jade-waisted slaves weren't considered strong, they were hard to deal with. Once those clear bottles were thrown over, the butterflies started falling to the ground. The warriors could even hit several of them by simply swinging their maces around.
At present, a dark figure suddenly entered the scene and dashed straight toward the boxes behind Ren Baqian.
Thump!
As the empress swung her palm across, the dark figure immediately got swatted away. The figure grabbed a tree trunk and flashed her teeth at the empress, looking extremely fearsome.
Even though Lin Qiaole looked pretty docile, with her five centimeter long nails and a pair of cat eyes, she looked pretty sinister.
"Hehehehe…" Sweet-sounding laughter, which sounded like bells, came from the darkness.
"So many guests today! All top grade nourishment! Should I thank you for dropping by?"
"Stop toying around!" The empress lifted a piece of rock with her foot and kicked it into the darkness. "Come out!"
A few seconds later, the herdsman turned around and looked behind himself with a puzzled expression.
Who was she trying to hit?
Nobody?
He quickly suppressed his suspicions and let out a burst of crisp laughter as he looked at the people. "Is this half-human with the ancient blood on your side? I didn't expect to meet one here. How lucky!
Unfortunately, you came too early. If you came slightly later and after I had finished training her, then I would be able to show you the true power of the ancient blood."
"Are you referring to the blood of the chinchilla?" Ren Baqian raised his voice. He had heard Qi Ziting mention this before.
"You actually know about it?" The herdsman was initially puzzled, but came to a realization soon after. "She was only acting like that because you guys don't know how to activate the blood of the chinchilla. Sadly, you have been in possession of such a powerful weapon, yet you don't know how to use it. Of course, you, who have abandoned us, should have long forgotten about all of this. I'm already pretty surprised that you actually knew that she has the blood of the chinchilla!"
"Abandoned you? What do you mean?" the empress coldly asked.
"Hehe. Of course you would have already forgotten about it. Since that's the case, I won't tell you!" the herdsman replied from the shadows.
"You will die for leaving it hanging!" Ren Baqian exclaimed.
"Die? We shall see about that after you defeat this half-human with the chinchilla blood!" The herdsman burst into laughter.
The sound of the flute rang out again.
Lin Qiaole's face looked extremely pained. Her teeth grew longer, and her body seemed to have grown one size larger.
Her clothes stuck to her body tightly.
Her A cup bosom grew into C cups.
This made Ren Baqian extremely surprised!
At this moment, Lin Qiaole grew larger, more developed, and her curves had become more alluring.
Her face looked even more seductive.
After taking a closer look, Ren Baqian saw something that was even more shocking.
"A tail!"
He immediately realized that a tail was growing out from under Lin Qiaole's skirt!
It was a very short tail with long gray hair.
"Elder brother-in-law, stop him!" Even though Lin Qiaole looked pretty attractive at the moment, Ren Baqian didn't dare to let the herdsman continue manipulating her and immediately shouted out for Qi Ziting to stop the herdsman.
"Hmph!" Qi Ziting grunted. He pushed his crutches off the ground and immediately pounced toward the darkness like a large eagle.
However, a dark figure dashed out of the shadows at this moment and intercepted Qi Ziting in midair.
Boom!
The jade-waisted slaves surrounding them were all blown away.
Even the rocks on the ground were thinned out.
Both of them flipped backward successively.
Ren Baqian's eyes were sharp, and he saw a snake's tail behind that dark figure.
"Haha, haha! How powerful!" Qi Ziting landed and burst into laughter before he launched himself into the darkness once more.
At this moment, Lin Qiaole started charging toward the soldiers. Her movements were much faster than before, and Ren Baqian couldn't see her clearly.
Purple veins immediately started to creep along the empress's face as she charged forward to face off against Lin Qiaole.
Both of them dashed around in midair before they came to a halt, and almost no sounds of conflict could be heard.
Ren Baqian glanced over and saw a pale red color on the empress's abdomen between her snowy-white skin and purple veins. However, she simply gave it a wipe and the wound disappeared.
However, she couldn't remove that hole in her red muslin clothes.
Ren Baqian took a deep breath. 
Lin Qiaole actually wounded the empress in their first clash!
On the other hand, Lin Qiaole crouched with her limbs on the ground. She raised an arm and moved her fingers rapidly while a scratching noise could be heard at the same time.
Ren Baqian didn't know if this was an illusion, but it seemed to him that her nails were actually tearing the air apart.


In a world where its inhabitants can destroy a city wall single-handedly, the empress has a kirin as her pet, and the imperial palace of Great Xia has a pool containing a dragon. There is also a Sword Mountain where spirit swords occasionally leave in search of a master .

Bootlicking the empress, Ren Baqian ascended to the apex of life.
