Chapter 870: The Talking Black Cat
"The master says you can go in." The black cat shot them a disdainful glance, its attitude rather dismissive, then turned its head and, with a stride well-suited to its aloof cat nature, leisurely walked down one of the small paths.
Han Jing...
This cat... can talk?
Xiao Xue was already dumbfounded, clutching Lianwu and saying, "Brother Lianwu, did you, did you hear that just now? That cat spoke? It actually spoke? How amazing? But... did you figure out if it’s a male or female?"
Lianwu...
That proud black cat, which had already walked two meters away, unexpectedly stopped when it heard Xiao Xue’s comment, emitting a very disdainful sound, "hmph."
Xiao Xue...
Still couldn’t tell... is it male or female?
Han Jing glanced at Su Yu, Su Yu nodded slightly, and Han Jing immediately pulled Su Yu along to follow.
Lianwu, carrying Xiao Xue, also followed.
Xiao Xue was still curious about whether the black cat was male or female, but this time, she had learned her lesson. She had also heard the black cat’s disdainful sound earlier, so this time, she whispered in Lianwu’s ear, "Brother Lianwu, did you figure it out? Male or female?"
Lianwu... who cares if it’s male or female? Even if it can speak, it’s still an animal!
Xiao Xue saw that Lianwu didn’t answer and stared at him unblinkingly. Lianwu, unable to help himself, replied, "Male!"
The black cat paused for a moment but did not turn around, maintaining its proud demeanor.
Now Xiao Xue was even more curious, "Brother Lianwu, how did you figure it out?"
She spoke very softly, and normally, people couldn’t hear at this distance. However, Han Jing and the others were cultivators, and that black cat was even more extraordinary, so... they heard it clearly.
Lianwu’s face was a tad stiff. As the Ghost King... as a spirit, his vision was, of course, far better than ordinary people’s. And that cat... it wasn’t wearing clothes, so... of course he could tell.
But how was he supposed to explain this to Xiao Xue?
So, Lianwu decided to steadfastly ignore her.
Xiao Xue, having waited a long time without Lianwu saying anything, had no choice but to change the topic, "It looks a lot like Little White, could it be called Little Black?"
Sigh, because Little White was too weak, she was afraid it would be too dangerous to take Little White out, so she left Little White at the Prayer Pavilion for Uncle Jiangnan to take care of.
The black cat finally couldn’t hold back after hearing this. It suddenly stopped, turned its head, and looked at Xiao Xue coldly. Xiao Xue blinked her beautiful big eyes, staring right back at it, still murmuring, "Are you glaring at me?"
Black cat...
As expected, children are the least adorable.
The black cat thought, with its noble status, it couldn’t stoop to arguing with a dim-witted child, so it turned its head, continuing to lead the way with its proud stride.
Xiao Xue still looked confused, asking Lianwu, "Brother Lianwu, did it just glare at me?"
Up in front, Han Jing finally couldn’t bear it any longer. Daughter, if you keep chattering like this, it won’t just glare at you anymore. We are in enemy territory, not in our home garden!
"Xiao Xue, stop talking, be quiet." Han Jing said sternly. Everywhere here was strange, and they must not be careless. This talking black cat was certainly no small character.
