Chapter 223: Shenhu Mountain Divorce


The Big Black Horse pulled the carriage, slowly heading towards Shenhu Mountain. As it moved along, it chuckled inwardly. This time, the Bloody Overlord Demonic Dragon has truly been thoroughly suppressed by the Lord! A perfectly good Blood Dragon, actually turned into a little red cat by the Lord... How amusing!

In a stuttering voice, Little Cat said, "Senior, actually, being a cat isn't so bad. Look at me; I've grown used to it."

"Is that so?" The Bloody Overlord Demonic Dragon lay moodily on the carriage, its eyes lifeless as it stared at the sky outside.

At this point, the Big Black Cat collected itself. Realizing it was a good time to curry favor with the senior, it quickly chimed in with a laugh, "Senior, being a cat is actually not bad. Why don't you try it for now? After a while, maybe the Lord will change you back."

The Bloody Overlord Demonic Dragon desperately wanted to say, It's still better to be a dragon! But the thought of the Lord sitting inside the carriage made it suppress its frustration and swallow those words.

"Being a cat is quite nice," the Bloody Overlord Demonic Dragon suddenly said with a laugh.

The Big Black Cat scrutinized its face suspiciously. Finding the laugh to be genuine, it couldn't help but mutter to itself, Could it be that this senior from the Dragon Clan before me is really so willing to be a cat? it wondered.

"Senior, where did you come from?" Seeing the little red cat before her, Little Cat felt a great sense of closeness. She actually mustered the courage to ask about the Bloody Overlord Demonic Dragon's origins.

"I..." The Bloody Overlord Demonic Dragon was about to speak but suddenly closed its mouth. Now that it had become a cat, it was better not to speak of matters from the Ancient Times. "I was in secluded cultivation in Ten Thousand Dragon Ridge. I happened to meet the Lord and followed him back," the Bloody Overlord Demonic Dragon explained feebly.

"Oh, so that's how it is!" Little Cat nodded quickly.

Looking at Little Cat's dazed and cute expression, Big Black Cat wished it could reach out and smack her on the forehead. This girl is truly audacious, daring to say anything in front of an Eternal Realm senior. A newborn calf truly doesn't fear a tiger.

Suddenly, an idea seemed to strike Little Cat, and her face lit up with joy as she looked at the Big Black Horse ahead and asked, "Uncle Ma, is our next stop Shenhu Mountain?"

The Big Black Horse chuckled. "Yes, we're headed to Shenhu Mountain. Didn't the Lord promise to help you annul your engagement?"

Hearing this, Little Cat broke into an excited laugh.

Having left the territory of Ten Thousand Dragon Ridge, the Big Black Horse guided the carriage down from the sky. After all, the original Ten Thousand Dragon Ridge had become an unfathomable abyss, which was why the Big Black Horse had taken to the air.

As they traveled leisurely along the mountain path, cultivators who saw the black carriage pass by couldn't help but marvel.

"Look! There are three cats lounging on that carriage. You can tell how much the owner loves cats!"

"Indeed…"

"..."

Being pointed at and commented on throughout the journey made the Bloody Overlord Demonic Dragon a bit uncomfortable, but it dared not show the slightest anger. The Lord possessed the Ancestral Dragon Body and was, in its heart, as sacred as the Ancestor Dragon itself. It was now pondering what could have happened after Lord Ancestor Dragon disappeared back in the Ancient Times to make the white-robed Lord before it so similar to the Ancestor Dragon. The very thought made its head feel like it was about to explode. Anyway, I'm a cat now; no one will say anything about how I behave. So, it simply burrowed its head into its soft belly and fell asleep.

Seeing the senior fall asleep, the Big Black Cat couldn't help but curl its lip. "Little Cat, how far is it from here to Shenhu Mountain?" Big Black Cat asked quietly.

"Probably about a two to three-day journey," Little Cat replied, gauging the carriage's speed and making a quick mental calculation.

"That's perfect. I can get some more cultivation in," the Big Black Cat said with a laugh. So, it closed its eyes and resumed cultivating the Sky Exterminating Phantom Eye. This Divine Skill had saved its life several times in the Nine Soul Underground Palace, so the Big Black Cat was now intensely focused on mastering it. It practiced tirelessly day and night, striving to achieve initial mastery as soon as possible.

Little Cat also felt quite bored, so she too began to cultivate where she sat.

The Big Black Horse traveled with his eyes slightly closed, secretly practicing the Sky Exterminating Phantom Eye as he went. He was also extremely dedicated to this Divine Skill, having personally witnessed the power the Lord wielded when using it.

The journey continued smoothly, with no cultivators disturbing them.

「Three days later.」

The black carriage arrived at the foot of Shenhu Mountain.

"We're finally here!" Little Cat exclaimed, standing up excitedly as she gazed at the familiar black mountain.

The Big Black Cat also stood up. It had promised Little Cat to help her annul this engagement. This time, I have to take the lead. If my strength isn't enough, then I'll ask Uncle Ma to step in.

Shenhu Mountain stretched for thousands of miles, its range resembling a colossal tiger lying prostrate upon the earth, its aura overwhelmingly powerful. The Big Black Horse pulled the carriage deeper into the mountain range.

「Two hours later.」

They saw the settlement of the Golden Striped Tiger Clan.

"Who goes there?" Two young men from the Demon Clan, both Golden Striped Black Tigers, suddenly appeared and blocked their path.

Little Cat transformed, assuming the appearance of a charming young woman in red. "It's me!" Little Cat said coldly. "I'm here to see your Clan Leader. Go and inform him."

The two young men instantly recognized the stunningly beautiful Little Cat and knew where she came from. The newcomer was none other than the fiancée of their young master, from the Sky Spirit Cat Clan.

"Alright!" Neither of them dared to delay. One of the young men immediately turned and hurried off to report.

The Big Black Horse continued to pull the carriage forward without stopping. The other young man didn't dare to obstruct them.

The Big Black Cat also transformed, taking on the guise of a young man in a black robe.

"If you need my help, just give a shout!" the Bloody Overlord Demonic Dragon called out, looking up at Big Black Cat. He had been bored stiff on this journey and, finding the rare excitement of an engagement annulment, wanted to get involved.

Big Black Cat turned its head, smiled, and said, "Senior, why don't you come in with me?"

"Alright!" The Bloody Overlord Demonic Dragon perked up instantly and, with a leap, landed on Big Black Cat's shoulder. Its body shifted, shrinking even smaller than before. Like a miniature red kitten, it perched on Big Black Cat's shoulder, small and exquisite, looking utterly adorable.

"Don't call me Senior anymore; it makes me sound too old. Why don't you just call me Second Brother?" the Bloody Overlord Demonic Dragon suggested, shaking its head.

"Second Brother?" Big Black Cat was startled and hastily shook his head. "That won't do, Senior! We mustn't break the rules of propriety."

"Fine, fine!" The Bloody Overlord Demonic Dragon sighed and shook its head helplessly.

The carriage proceeded inward, finally stopping in a large plaza. Little Cat and Big Black Cat jumped down from the carriage and walked towards the grand hall up ahead.

At this moment, a burly man clad in black armor strode quickly out from the hall.

Big Black Cat was delighted the moment it saw this person. Ah, it's this lovable oaf again!

The Golden Striped Black Tiger's eyes lit up when he saw Little Cat. He grinned and said, "Little Cat, you're back just in time! Otherwise, I would have had to go to your Sky Spirit Cat Clan to see your parents."

"See my parents?" Little Cat's expression instantly turned icy.
