The two of them finally left the classroom after completing their world-class act. To demonstrate her remorse and sincerity, Xiao Yu even bowed in apology for an entire minute before leaving, “Teacher, I’m so sorry for causing you so much trouble,” Xiao Yu apologized as she carefully shut the doors.

Zhao Yao was trying his best to suppress his laughter as he chuckled, “36? D? I didn’t know that you had such aspirations.”

Xiao Yu swept her head around and pinned him down with her death glare, “Why do I get the feeling that you are gloating over my demise?”

Somehow, Zhao Yao didn’t realize the change in mood and continued poking fun at her, “I never expected girls your age to be so vain! I mean you even resorted to lying about your boob size when you’re in middle school. I dare not imagine what will happen in high school. Everything that we say should be rooted in truth. You are simply too vain for your own good. Who taught you all these?”

“I do whatever I deem fit.”

Zhao Yao was stunned by her snarky response. However, that did not stop him from taking advantage of the situation, “Xiao Yu, I’m reminding you that your reign of terror has ended. From today onwards, you are not to call me by my nickname. From now on, I’m your elder brother. If not, I’ll simply tell your parents about today.”

Xiao Yu slid Zhao Yao a cold, condescending glare as she muttered, “Yao Er, you are already a grown man. I don’t expect a grown man to resort to threatening a girl like me. Don’t you find your actions childish?”

“Haha, I am childish. What are you gonna do about that?” Zhao Yao bellowed in a wave of laughter as he continued, “Don’t you remember how I used to snatch the lollipop from you when we’re younger? Actually, I didn’t even like lollipops. I just wanted to show you what it means to be powerful, to be in control. I hope you got to learn a thing or two from today.”

Xiao Yu nodded her head and continued answering in a snarky fashion, “I remember. I was still in kindergarten then. My parents almost turned you into a cripple because of it.”

While making their way out of the campus, Zhao Yao was greeted by an unusual sight. Scores of girls turned extremely flustered the moment they say Xiao Yu and immediately bowed in her direction, “Good evening, Ms. Xiao Yu.”

“Good evening, Ms. Xiao Yu.”

“Have a good day, Ms. Xiao Yu.”

Even the 1.7 meters girls who towered over her had to greet her in the most respectful manner. Zhao Yao’s lips curled in disgust as he muttered, “What exactly have you been doing in school?”

Xiao Yu just replied matter of factly, “Before I came, some of the delinquents were extorting money out of these poor students. Hence, I decided to teach them a lesson. Actually, they weren’t the only ones who I’ve beaten up.”

“Using your superpower?”

“Erm, you don’t say?”

“Aren’t you afraid that the school will learn about your abilities?” Zhao Yao facepalmed himself when he learned of her blatant abuse of superpower, “Stop using your power for such lame reasons!”

Xiao Yu responded with a mirthless laugh, “Says the one who used it to open a cat café. How dare you even accuse me?” Nekomata had secretly fed much information about Zhao Yao to Xiao Yu.

Zhao Yao could only shake his head in despair. He decided to drop the topic and moved on to something he was truly concerned about, “Oh yes, can you tell me more about your power?” He continued by asking another seemingly random question, “Don’t tell me your power is to turn into a ghost?”

Zhao Yao had seen for himself how she turned into a female ghost during the cat king competition. He had long suspected that Nekomata had something to do with her power.

“Hmph, you are quite an astute observer. That’s right. I have the power to turn into ghost, spirit, whatever you want to call it. I have the power of psychokinesis, illusion and things like that.”

Zhao Yao’s gaze gave a light shudder when he heard those words which confirmed his hypothesis. A solemn expression crept up his face as he asked, “Where did your power come from? I vaguely remember you telling me that it came from the husky.”

Zhao Yao’s first guess was that Nekomata had somehow managed to possess the husky’s body.

However, Xiao Yu’s response shocked him. She shook her head and replied, “Nope. It’s from a spirit cat which I’ve recently adopted.”

Zhao Yao froze for a split second. After a few more questions, he was sure that the spirit cat Xiao Yu referred to was none other than Ho Hao Cang’s Nekomata.

With his power, Nekomata could hide so well that even Zhao Yao would not be able to locate it. Hence, Zhao Yao didn’t even bother to spare any effort on this futile search. However, he never expected him to end up in Xiao Yu’s care.

“Does that mean that Nekomata has already seen me? Maybe he’s simply using Xiao Yu as a tool to exact revenge on me?”

Zhao Yao thought long and hard about it before deciding to let Xiao Yu in on the secret. He started by asking, “Xiao Yu, is your spirit cat around us right now?”

“Erm, yeah. What’s the matter?”

Chills ran down Zhao Yao’s spine when he heard that response. Cold sweat beaded his forehead as Zhao Yao asked, “Has he been here all this time?”

Meow! With a gentle purr, Nekomata had materialized right before them. He then started to rub his body against Xiao Yu affectionately before she bent down to pick him up and cradled him in her arms, “Nekomata, why did you suddenly appear? I thought you hate being seen by others?”

Nekomata glanced at Zhao Yao before communicating with him telepathically, “Do not worry, I mean no harm to the both of you. You are not responsible for his death. Furthermore, he didn’t die in your hands. He literally died in his own hands.”

Actually, Nekomata had spent a long time pondering over his own relationship with Xiao Yu and Zhao Yao since entering his extradimensional belly.

The last thing he wanted was to be enemy with Zhao Yao. It would be ideal if they could become partners, or even friends. Hence, he began to ignore Noddle and started to interact with Xiao Yu, in hopes of expressing his sincerity and goodwill.

They became friends immediately. With his goodwill and significantly more powerful strength, it was hard not to.

Zhao Yao was stunned by his sudden appearance. He had never expected Nekomata to appear on his own accord and even broached this taboo topic.

Actually, there was nothing much Zhao Yao could do if Nekomata chose to remain invisible. To show up and explain the situation showed how sincere Nekomata was in establishing a new relationship with Zhao Yao.

The situation would be so thorny if Nekomata insisted on hiding behind the shadows.

However, it was not that easy to earn Zhao Yao’s trust with a few words.

Hence, Zhao Yao only responded with a nod of his head. Deep inside, he was contemplating whether to tell Xiao Yu the truth so that she can better guard herself against this potential adversary.

“If Xiao Yu borrows Nekomata’s power every day, both of them would possess the spirit powers. Hence, they can see each other and defend against each other. This would be a layer of defense working against Nekomata. However, it was one which he could take away whenever he wished to.”

At this point, Zhao Yao still couldn’t decipher his true intentions behind his generosity towards Xiao Yu.

Even though this partnership granted Xiao Yu an especially potent strength, it also brought along some inherent risks since she’s spending so much time with this relatively unknown supercat.

Zhao Yao thought about it and whipped out a collar from his pocket before passing it to Xiao Yu, “Take it.”

This was the special collar which was infused with Elizabeth’s ability. A specific illusion had been sealed within it. Since earning Illusion’s Seal (upgraded), the duration of the illusion had been extended to 1*Elizabeth’s level.

An illusion seal created by a lvl 6 Elizabeth would last for six days before expiring.

He had specially sealed the illusion – The 5 Senses – within this collar.

As he handed the collar over to her, he began to communicate some thoughts telepathically.

“I told you some things about Nekomata just now, but I need you to be careful. Maybe you might even need this ... but this thing expires every six days. Hence, you have to come over to my café every six days.” He then continued to introduce the power and functions of the collar to her.

It was impossible for Zhao Yao to deal with Nekomata when he was invisible. However, things were different when he was visible. Elizabeth’s power of illusion provided the best counter to his ability.

Xiao Yu glanced at the collar before sliding Zhao Yao a condescending glare, “Zhao Yao, don’t tell me that you have some weird fetishes.”
