Chapter 3
Chapter 3 — Contract with the Cat God: Follow One Person All Your Life
Me and Bach Mieu lay under the canopy of the tree to catch the sun, so bored that we plucked its feathers to play. Suddenly I remembered that it had been a long time since my sister came to study with me, and no one forced me to wash up and return to the temple... I climbed onto Bach Mieu's stomach, sat with my feet up eating fruit, swayed absentmindedly and asked: "Hey, haven't I seen you in a long time?" Bach Mieu did not raise her head and lazily replied: "Seven months, nine days." What?! I sat up in shock: "You remember that clearly?" Then I squinted my eyes at it, half in doubt and half in sarcasm: "You... could it be that you secretly love that Huyen Dieu so you remember it so well?" Bach Mieu's belly bulged and threw me into the sky. I calmly turned around in the air, then gently fell back into the nest of feathers as soft as a cotton pillow, so comfortable that I didn't want to get up anymore. I buried my face in its belly and rubbed it, whispering: "If it's not because of him, then why?" Bach Mieu lazily licked her claws, then spoke for a long time: "That was the day Huyen Dieu transformed into a human. Since that day, your sister has never come to look for you again." I suddenly understood: "Oh— so you are jealous of Huyen Dieu who transformed into a human, right!" "You two obviously became spiritual beasts on the same day, it awakened into a divine beast, and even turned into a human, and you transformed from a gray cat... into a white cat, hahaha!" I laughed at her without any respect, completely forgetting that my sister and I were truly the world apart. Bach Mieu perked up her ears and protested dissatisfiedly: "Who would be jealous of him? My whole body is as flashy as a peacock! If I were to transform, I would definitely be several times more handsome than him." I scratched the velvety fur on its body, smiling with my eyes: "I believe it~ But you haven't practiced for a day, how can you transform? Let's just go like this - a beautiful waste, a cute useless cat, living a free life is enough." “It's a handsome cat!” I laughed, left the nest, straightened my clothes: "Let's go, let's go visit sister. Suddenly I miss her." Returning to the sect, I immediately realized that the atmosphere was strange. After finding Senior Brother Nghiem Vo Cuc, the person closest to me in the sect, I learned the shocking news - Sister is about to succeed Thien Phong Sect Grand Master! Oh my god, this news is more exciting than eating three meals of crystal ham! I excitedly turned around and ran straight to your yard, completely not hearing Senior Brother Nghiem's instructions behind me. But when I got there, I couldn't see my sister anywhere. Asking a few disciples, they found out that she was staying with Elder Qi. Elder Qi?! The person I fear the most in the entire sect! Normally, I would still avoid taking detours, let alone enter his room. But today, I was in such a good mood, your good news overwhelmed all my fears, so I boldly ran to the door of the elder's room - only to discover... the door was silently closed. I was about to quickly retreat, when Bach Mieu suddenly spoke: "There is someone inside." Immediately, a feeling of anticipation arose in my heart, Bach Mieu and I looked at each other with understanding. It immediately transformed into a small cat form and obediently crawled into my arms. I hugged it, crawled lightly to the window, quietly squatted down, straining my ears to listen... "Recently, the demon race has been constantly moving, there are rumors that the Ninth Prince of the demon race is about to awaken. If that's true, we will definitely come to take revenge. In the battle twenty years ago, our Thien Phong Mon suffered heavy losses. For decades, the younger generation in the sect is the only one who has reached the Ninth Realm, and there are only twelve people on the Seventh Realm — It is basically impossible to resist if the demon race comes with all their strength.” For the first time, I heard Elder Qi's voice so heavy. The demon race… is coming? Has time gone by so quickly? I silently recalled - My previous life was also around this time, when I was fifteen years old, the great disaster struck... "Even though I announced to the outside that I had just broken through Realm Nine, in reality, I had entered Realm Ten - the peak realm." Sister spoke coldly. Elder Qi was stunned: “You… have already reached the Tenth Realm?!” There was both surprise and unbelievable joy in his voice - it seemed like he also did not expect that his sister possessed such heavenly talent. In my previous life, when the great war with the demon race broke out, I barely reached Realm Six, and my sister only reached Realm Seven, completely unable to withstand the demon soldiers. But now — sister is already a Realm Ten powerhouse! This time… we can definitely repel the demon race! I was so excited that I wanted to lean into Bach Mieu's ear and whisper my congratulations, but before I could say anything, I heard my sister's voice speak again: "I will do my best to protect my fellow Thien Phong Mon. But Elder Qi and Mo Mo have shallow magic power and don't understand anything about the overall situation, so they shouldn't be forced to bear such heavy responsibility." “But you alone, how can you fight against the entire demon race? You two are identical twins, you practice day and night to the peak realm to protect the sect, and he..." Before Elder Qi finished speaking, his sister interrupted, her voice suddenly became extremely cold: "I practiced day and night, entering the peak realm, all just to protect Mo Mo. No matter the time, her safety is always the most important thing to me. If the Elder doesn't want me to get into trouble, then don't bother me even half a second!” I sat outside the window listening in a daze. I didn't understand what the demon race had to do with me. I also didn't understand why my sister was arguing with the elder to this extent because of me. While I was still in a daze, I heard footsteps, my sister was about to come out! I immediately threw the White Cat out. It turned back into a big cat right in the air. I jumped on its back and rushed over the wall into the next hospital. A boy who was cleaning saw a person and a giant cat falling from the sky, almost falling to the ground! Bach Mieu and I followed the path quietly back to my sister's courtyard, but we didn't see anyone - she must have gone somewhere else after leaving the elder's room. I sat down on the ground, leaning against Bach Mieu: "Hey, cat, what does the demon race have to do with me? My magic power is low, is there anything worth paying attention to from Elder Qi?" Bach Mieu just lay quietly beside him, not saying a word. That's right, the things we can't think of, they can't even think of. Only when the lanterns in the yard were lit did she return. Seeing me swinging on the swing in the middle of the yard, she looked a little surprised: "Why is Mo Mo back?" Her eyebrows frowned slightly, "You... did you hear something?" I ran and hugged her arm, pulling her into the house and smiling: "I heard that, right? And I'm so happy!" Sister's steps stopped, her face changed slightly. I pretended not to see and continued to chirp: "You're about to take over as head of the sect and you didn't tell me! It's such a big fun thing to hide~" You secretly breathed a sigh of relief, then smiled: "There's been so much going on lately, I've been so busy that I forgot. Luckily, you're good at it and came home in time - The succession ceremony is only a few days away." “Of course, there's no bustle that I can't get into!” I looked at my sister proudly, smiling widely, but in her eyes, I saw a trace of worry that was hard to hide. That night, I tossed and turned and couldn't sleep. Finally, I pulled Bach Mieu up and forced him to talk to me. “Hey, have you heard of the Ninth Prince demon race?” Bach Mieu lazily opened her eyes to look at me, was silent for a while before answering: "I know." For some reason, his voice was different today, carrying a low tone that I had never heard before. But we don't pay much attention — the point is: does it know?! Whereas in my previous life, I didn't know that name until the moment I died! 3 From ancient times until now, the human race and the demon race have been like water and fire. The two sides cannot completely destroy each other, so they still maintain a fragile state of balance. If you are strong then I am weak, I am weak then silently grow strong, both sides struggle, occasionally there are small conflicts but they have never erupted into a major war. Until twenty years ago — the Ninth prince of the demon race - Co Doanh appeared, breaking the entire balance. Co Doanh is known as the person with the strongest demon pill in hundreds of years, has been practicing in seclusion for many years, and has never appeared. But as soon as he appeared, he immediately attacked several major sects of the human race in succession, leaving them unable to react in time and almost being destroyed. This action angered the entire human race. The major sects gathered for an alliance and decided to join forces to counterattack the demon race. But they underestimated Co Doanh. His true strength is far beyond what he shows, as if he deliberately lures people into being subjective. It is said that the battle lasted for more than a year, the major sects suffered heavy casualties, and the elites were almost completely lost. If we continue to hold out, the human race will be eroded to the point of destruction. The nine leading sect leaders decided: Use life to change life.
