In the matter of treasure hunting, besides Brother Feng, the person Zhang Ze trusts most is Li.
Although they have slightly different goals in seeking treasure, there really isn’t any difference in the outco.
Maomao hid five buns, Li could find six with her eyes closed.
That’s talent.
So, Zhang Ze, choosing to trust Li’s talent, followed the trench Li had dug, heading all the way west.
He quickly arrived at the entrance of a cave.
The cave appeared quiet, without guards at the entrance, nor were there catgirls with long bells; the cold damp air blew out from the entrance, and Zhang Ze slled a sowhat familiar scent.
Sweet, yet sowhat like the salty sea breeze.
It made his head feel a bit dizzy.
But at this mont, Zhang Ze couldn’t afford to be distracted, because he discovered that the trench Li dug ca to an abrupt halt at the cave entrance.
Worried about Li, Zhang Ze quickly flashed his beams again, and under the illumination of the colorless light, he saw Li in another dinsion lying on the ground asleep.
Breathing gently and evenly, without any issues.
And then Zhang Ze suddenly recalled the source of that familiar scent.
It was Fuji.
The first ti he encountered Fuji in the Sword Sect’s back mountain, this was the scent he slled.
He hesitated for a mont, then stepped into the cave.
...
Inside the cave.
In a chamber filled with signs of life.
Within the room, there was a complete set of stone tables and chairs, and a lonely copper lamp from an unknown era standing on the stone table, its oil long depleted and its wick turned to ash.
Even the copper lamp itself seed as if a light touch would turn it to dust.
Next to these dead objects, however, there was a ’living being’.
A purebred cat lady squatted on the ground, her tail swaying left and right, looking sowhat puzzled at the stone stele before her.
The Cat Lady Emperor from the Thousand chanism Pavilion was a bit confused, she had just been dozing off in class, why did she end up here upon opening her eyes?
Moreover...
She looked down at her hand.
Those weren’t her hands; there was a crack on her right wrist, where vortex-like spiritual qi leaked out continuously, the damaged array talisman flickering uncertainly.
Based on the knowledge recently learned from the Thousand chanism Pavilion School, the Cat Lady Emperor roughly recognized these things.
They were runes from inside a sword spirit.
Though the model differs slightly from those of the Thousand chanism Pavilion, the tracing is indeed akin to a sword spirit.
If that’s the case...
The Cat Lady Emperor thought of the Grade Three academic prodigy next door, Chuan’s midterm research project this year for early-grade promotion.
"On the Prospects and Technical Demonstration of Cultivators Controlling Sword Spirits Remotely via Divine Souls"
Although she didn’t really understand these things, the Cat Lady Emperor inferred cause from the result and imdiately realized that she might have descended via divine soul or consciousness onto an old-model sword spirit.
Thinking this, the Cat Lady Emperor imdiately perked up.
She wasn’t delighted by the imminent technological breakthrough, but simply realized that she had a handle on Chuan.
Unlike other classmates who are obsessed with studying and progressing daily, the Cat Lady Emperor’s sole purpose in attending the elentary school was this.
To dominate the Thousand chanism Pavilion Linglan Primary School and ultimately stand at its apex.
This path to domination had reached its final step; now, only Chuan’s Grade Three class stood in her way.
The Cat Lady Emperor secretly thought, even if she couldn’t grasp the situation, she would have the leverage against Chuan as long as she found a way to bring this sword spirit back; thus, defeating Grade Three would be easy-peasy.
Once Chuan yielded and knelt before her throne, he would be inviting her to internet cafes every day from then on.
The Cat Lady Emperor mused gleefully, completely oblivious to the person approaching from behind.
...
Carrying a hamr, Zhang Ze gently, quietly sneaked up on the cat lady squatting on the ground, backed to him, foolishly chuckling.
It’s not unwarranted that he acted cautiously, considering his recent exposure to an excessive number of cat ladies, he was now sowhat PTSD from these creatures.
Especially in this cave that likely had connections to Fuji.
Standing behind the cat lady, Zhang Ze’s hamr glead coldly, then he struck the cat lady’s head with it.
A good head deserves a good hit.
With this hard blow, the Cat Lady Emperor was imdiately flipped to the ground by Zhang Ze, who then unceremoniously pinned her down.
Holding Lily’s radio in one hand and gripping Dan Dan Swordsmanship in the other, he prepared to properly manipulate this cat lady acting like Xiao Jing.
Yet he hadn’t moved when he suddenly noticed discrepancies; the cat lady lacked seven bell pairs on the chest and had no bells below.
And the face looked sowhat familiar, as if he had seen it sowhere before.
But where...
As Zhang Ze lanted his poor mory, the cat lady emperor pinned on the ground cursed vehently.
"Zhang Ze, you bastard, why are you hitting your dad?"
Zhang Ze was startled by the words, then without thinking, he gave a second hamring to the cat lady emperor beneath him.
"You brat! I don’t care who you are! Feel the hamr!"
Finished speaking, Zhang Ze ignored her protests and hamred directly towards the cat lady’s mouth.
This sword spirit thoughtfully refrained from sharing pain beyond the alert threshold with the Cat Lady Emperor, so despite being battered, she wasn’t hurt.
But the heartbreak was inevitable because this sword spirit represented her ambition to dominate the Thousand chanism Pavilion Linglan Primary School; if it shattered, her dreams would be shattered too.
For a mont, she felt forlorn, and it was at this mont, Zhang Ze’s actions also ca to a halt.
