Am I A God?

Zhao Yao"s heart sank when he heard that obnoxious female voice rang in his head, "That pesky fella is here again, but how did she even managed to recognize me?" Just now, Zhao Yao had already spotted them when they were stealing all the limelight. It was impossible to miss the entire entourage plus the husky.

Zhao Yao chose this spot just to avoid her. However, it was futile.

"Are you wondering how I managed to spot you?" Xiao Yu bent next to Noodle and rewarded him with a pat on his back, "It"s because of Noodle"s fantastic nose!"

Zhao Yao let out a sigh of despair before using his illusion to communicate with Xiao Yu alone, "Do not expose my ident.i.ty. I"m sure you are equally reluctant to expose your own ident.i.ty as well."

"Of course." A glimmer flashed across her eyes, "I would never partic.i.p.ate in this kind of stupid compet.i.tions if not for that house."

"House?" Zhao Yao was left speechless by her response, "You are intending to sweep the top three prizes?"

"Of course, with the rising standard of living, property prices in Jiangmen City have soared. My parents are just ordinary people. They will never be able to afford another property in Jiangmen."

Xiao Yu spoke as if she were a thirty-year-old, "Hence, I can only depend on myself or my future husband for my own house. However, I do not wish to be constrained by my future husband"s financial capabilities, so I"ll simply buy one on my own."

Zhao Yao replied with a roll of his eyes, "Wow, that"s far-sighted of you."

"Of course. By the time I"m in college, I will have a house, a car,

and my pretty little face. Guys will simply flock to me." Suddenly, Xiao Yu tapped Zhao Yao on his shoulders and remarked, "I have no intention of hurting you with these words."

Zhao Yao was already devoid of expression as he answered, "That"s exactly what you are doing."

Xiao Yu ran her fingers through Zhao Yao"s hair in an attempt to comfort him, "Actually, it"s not a bed of roses when it comes to relations.h.i.+ps. The boy from my neighboring cla.s.s had been courting me for the past month. He finally gave up last week which made me sad for at least half an hour. Staying single at 25 years old is truly a smart decision. A relations.h.i.+p is truly too saddening."

Zhao Yao clutched his chest tightly as he felt dozens of swords impaled right through his heart.

Because of the illusion, Liu Yun was totally oblivious to this conversation. She inched towards them and asked, "Do you guys know each other?"

Zhao Yao immediately clarified, "We"ve met a few times but we"re not that close."

Liu Yun seemed rather confused and asked, "But I thought I heard her call you Yao Er?"

"It"s Guo Er, I think you heard wrong." Xiao Yu came forward to help Zhao Yao conceal his ident.i.ty.

"Huh?"

Zhao Yao immediately screamed at Xiao Yu via the illusion, "Hey! Stop giving me some random names! Do you think you are actually Xiaolongnü? Call me brother."

Xiao Yu acted all sad and lamented, "Oh my, Guo Er, Aunty used to dote on you so much when you"re young. Have you forgotten all about it already?"

Zhao Yao was left speechless and reb.u.t.ted, "Kid, what exactly do you want from me?"

A glimmer of excitement flashed across her eyes as Xiao Yu announced, "Join forces with me as we sweep the top prizes of the compet.i.tion!"

Zhao Yao stroked his chin thoughtfully before replying, "But they have yet to release the compet.i.tion format. An alliance will be rather useless if it"s round robin."

"Have you ever heard of soccer fixing?" Xiao Yu continued, "If the two of us meet in a compet.i.tion, you don"t have to go all out, do you understand?"

Zhao Yao covered his mouth with his hand as he pondered about it. Finally, he decided to relent since there were no obvious disbenefits from it."

Meanwhile, the husky and Fish Ball had already gathered around the Serval cat.

Fish Ball slammed his paws against the wooden plank and roared at Matcha, "Young fella, why do you look so familiar?"

Matcha slid Fish Ball a glance before replying, "Where are you from?"

Fish Ball collapsed to the floor in laughter before he went back on his feet and answered, "You don"t even know who I am? I am cat king Fish Ball of Hanada II. The entire Jiangmen City knows about my name while you remain clueless. Are you even a supercat? I will protect you from today onwards if you kneel down and call me your master."

"Protect me?" Matcha sn.i.g.g.e.red before revealing his claws, "Look at it. Have you ever seen claws as sharp as this? Many humans have already fallen prey to these claws."

Fish Ball was not going to lose just yet. He followed suit and revealed his claws. However, they were barely an inch long, "D*mn it, I forgot Xiao Yu helped to trim them last night!"

Immediately, he illuminated his entire body with light, "A fight between supercats boils down to superpower, not physical brawl!" He dangled his paws in front of Matcha as two beams of light shot out of it, "Do you see the light? Do you have an intense desire to chase after them? Do not control yourself! Chase it, release your inner demons!"

The Serval cat could no longer suppress her urge and pounced onto the beam of light. However, the beam of light always seemed to be able to slip through the gaps between her claws.

Fish Ball began cackling before he looked towards Matcha and commented, "Stop controlling yourself, go and chase …."

Piack!

Matcha instantly retaliated with a slap to his face before pouncing on his body and landing a barrage of punches.

"Are you taking me for a fool?" Matcha roared.

Suddenly, Fish Ball started s.h.i.+ning even brighter as he screamed, "Stop it! I will kill you if you continue doing that!"

Matcha was taken by surprise when the light suddenly grew brighter. Zhao Yao did not dare to take any risks in the world of superpower and decided to strike first by turning the world to a standstill.

"I hit! I hit! I hit! I hit!"

When time resumed, Fish Ball was already lying motionlessly against the ground with a red and blue light illuminating from his body.

When he saw Matcha flas.h.i.+ng his claws in the air, Fish Ball immediately jumped to his feet and pleaded, "Brother, please stop hitting me. I will die if you continue doing so!"

The husky watched the two cats struggling with each other before he rested on the floor impatiently, "Why are cats the only animals awakened? Cats are so stupid. It would be so much better if dogs were awakened instead!"

At this moment, an announcement blared on board the pa.s.senger liner, broadcasting the cat king of the north"s voice into every corner.

"How are all the partic.i.p.ants doing? I"m sure all of you must be famished by now, so we shall distribute the northern cat cat food to all our partic.i.p.ants. We would like to thank them for their generous sponsors!"

"If any of you like the flavors we have prepared today, feel free to scan the QR code at the bottom of the bag. You get to enjoy a 20% discount as a partic.i.p.ant during your future purchases!"

Zhao Yao was left speechless by this product placement, "When will he ever stop with his advertis.e.m.e.nt?"

Soon enough, a person had approached them with bags of cat food. However, Zhao Yao had never expected to see this "person" here.

If you looked at this "person" from afar, he would simply pa.s.s off as an ordinary man. However, upon closer observation, you would notice the artificial imprints on his face, wrist, and even neck. He was obviously a human puppet.

"Speaking of which, the person who operated the speedboat just now also seemed kind of strange. Is he also a puppet? Is this the power of the cat king of the north?" Zhao Yao had always been interested in these four cat kings. From the superphones to these human puppets and the weird prizes up for grabs, Zhao Yao suspected that the cat king of the north had the power to create unique items like these.
