Chapter 48: Master Ma, I Have Finally Met You

Chapter 48: Uncle Ma, I’ve Finally Met You

"Damn it! That little black cat actually left a puddle of stinky urine here. When it comes back, I’m going to make it lick it all up."

Gazing at the urine stain on the ground, the big black horse recoiled a couple of steps in disgust, distancing itself from the cat’s mess.

But cat urine is cat urine, pungently foul.

Unable to bear it any longer, the big black horse cast a spell, conjuring a light barrier that enveloped the puddle of cat urine.

“Little Horse, how’s the outside world? Have you met any mares that caught your fancy to be your wife?”

Suddenly, a terrifying figure appeared before the big black horse, settling upon its back.

The horse’s body sagged suddenly, nearly collapsing to the ground.

“Sister Feng, please be gentle! My skinny little frame can’t handle your weight…”

The big black horse said with a pitiful look.

“Oh dear, I forgot! I thought you were out there living the high life with the master, growing strong and sturdy.”

The terrifying figure spoke with a coquettish feminine voice.

She used her powers to lessen the pressure slightly.

The big black horse felt some relief.

Shaking its head, it smiled bitterly. “Sister Feng, there aren’t any suitable mares out there. I’m destined to be a bachelor for life!”

The terrifying figure chuckled softly.

“Is the outside world fun?”

She continued to ask.

The big black horse first shook its head, then quickly nodded.

“What do you mean by that? One moment you say no, the next you say yes. Is it fun or not?”

The terrifying figure frowned.

“Sister Feng, the strength of the people outside is too weak. There’s no way to play with them… When I say it’s interesting, it’s because the master’s sect has three disciples. Those three little rascals are quite amusing…”

“Oh, I see!”

The terrifying figure thought for a moment, then encouraged the big black horse, “Why don’t you ask the master if those three juniors need divine pets? If they do, we’d be willing to go out and serve as their divine beasts.”

“All right, Sister Feng.”

The big black horse lowered its head reluctantly.

If all these terrifying creatures went out, wouldn’t the world go mad?

The master’s original intention was to train the three disciples of the Divine Dragon Sect.

If they kept pets, how could they be properly trained?

But the big black horse dared not say this, fearing Sister Feng might pierce holes in its body in anger.

---

Suddenly, a golden light descended.

Bang!

The golden terrifying figure threw the little black cat to the ground.

It grumbled, “This little guy is hopeless—fainted the moment he got there.”

“Big Gold, you must have had ill intentions, taking him to the scariest place, right?”

Sister Feng giggled.

“Hahaha… I wanted to broaden his horizons, but he fainted as soon as we approached. I was afraid he’d die of fright, so I quickly brought him back to avoid the master’s punishment.”

With that, the golden terrifying figure vanished in a flash.

“Little Horse, this little cat is too timid. When he wakes up, comfort him properly.”

Seeing the situation was bad, Sister Feng immediately slipped away.

In the darkness, those terrifying figures closed their eyes one by one, falling into a deep sleep.

The entire warehouse was dark and silent once more.

The big black horse shook its head, seeming unaccustomed to the quiet.

It recalled how they used to frequently brawl with each other!

Why did they prefer sleeping so much recently?

Could it be that they were simply worn out from all the fighting over the years?

After pondering, the big black horse approached the little black cat.

It tapped the cat’s head with its hoof, infusing a bit of magic.

The little black cat slowly woke.

“Uncle Ma, I’ve finally met you! I thought I’d never see you in this lifetime.”

Seeing the handsome horse face in the darkness, the little black cat felt an overwhelming sense of familiarity. It leapt up suddenly, clutching the big black horse’s sturdy leg and sobbing uncontrollably.

Earlier, it had seen the most terrifying demon beast of its life.

It had fainted on the spot from fright.

That demon beast had only half-opened one eye to glance at it.

The little black cat felt as if it had died in hell eight hundred times over.

It was simply too terrifying!

“Stop crying, little kitty. Now you know how scary it is here with the master, right?”

The big black horse said with a hint of annoyance.

“I know, Uncle Ma.”

The little black cat wiped its tears and said sorrowfully.

“So, from now on, as a cat, you have to keep a low profile. Don’t think you’re impressive just because you’re a nine-tailed spirit cat. To your Uncle Ma, you’re nothing.”

The big black horse lectured in a stern elder tone.

The little black cat wiped its eyes and nodded firmly.

“I won’t dare again. I’ll definitely keep a low profile as a cat.”

“That’s better.”

The big black horse pointed with a hoof toward a direction, saying irritably, “Look at you, so hopeless—you even peed in the master’s warehouse. Hurry up and lick it clean, or else I’ll toss you here for them to eat.”

Hearing the big black horse’s threat, the little black cat’s fur bristled all over.

It dashed to the puddle of urine, opened its mouth wide, and sucked it all up into its stomach.

“Ugh, Uncle Ma, stay away from me next time! You’re really filthy!”

The big black horse raised its head, showing a look of disgust.

It was, after all, a big black horse who liked cleanliness.

“Don’t worry, Master. I used magic to decompose it, so there’s no smell.”

The little black cat raised its paw and chuckled.

“Clever of you.”

The big black horse said grumpily, turning around and walking out.

Watching the whole scene, Ye Yun couldn’t help but smile to himself.

This time, the little black cat was truly terrified.

Surely, it wouldn’t dare be so high-profile ever again.

Ye Yun moved his wrist gently, lifting the big black horse and the little black cat into the air.

Back in the daylight, the little black cat greedily breathed in fresh air, its face showing a look of survival after disaster.

Bang!

The big black horse immediately struck the cat on the head with a hoof.

The little black cat understood quickly that this was no time to relax. It hurried to Ye Yun’s feet and repeatedly kowtowed.

“Master, the little cat knows its mistake. Please give me another chance.”

Ye Yun smiled faintly, hands behind his back, and said softly, “If you want to come with us, it’s not impossible. But the current leader of the Divine Dragon Sect is Luo Li. You should ask her opinion.”

Seeing that the master did not object, the little black cat’s heart leapt with joy, feeling hopeful.

It hurried to Luo Li’s feet, knelt on the ground, and kowtowed, “Sect Leader Luo, please take me in. The sect will surely need a divine beast to guard it in the future. I’m sure I can be up to the task!”

Seeing the little black cat suddenly kowtow to her, Luo Li was startled but found the cat’s action amusing.

She didn’t dislike the little black cat.

However, if she were to accept it, she felt it would be a bit hasty.

Su Wanyi looked at the little black cat with a trace of gratitude in her eyes.

“Junior sister, this cat senior saved me back then and helped me a lot. Why don’t you just accept it?”

Su Wanyi said softly.
