Am I A God?

Seeing the innocent look on Zhao Xue’s face, Zhao Yao laughed and said, “She got married. She went back to her hometown to get married. She has retired for good and will not be coming back ever again.”

Zhao Yao patted Zhao Xue’s shoulders and reassured her, “Don’t worry, you have your brother here to protect you from now on. Given my abilities now, no one will be a match for me. Next time if anyone bullies you, come back and find me. I will stand up for you and make sure that person suffers.”

Zhao Xue stared at Zhao Yao suspiciously, “Really? She got married?”

“Of course, why would your brother lie to you,” Zhao Yao slung his hand over her shoulder and hugged her neck as they walked to the dimension portal leading to the Cat Island. “I have all the money and power now. If you want anything, just tell me. I will get it for you.”

Zhao Xue said, “I still want to go back to my university and study first. If I don’t go back now, they might just expel me.”

Hearing Zhao Xue’s words, Zhao Yao quickly waved his hand and said, “No no, it’s better for you to stay on the Cat Island during this period.”

“Why?”

Zhao Yao replied, “There’s someone out there trying to get back at me. People like them love to target their opponent’s parents and siblings. If you go out now, there’s a high chance that you’ll be attacked.”

“Ah?” Zhao Xue said, “Didn’t you say you could protect me? That no one would be a match for you?”

Zhao Yao coughed hard before he said, “This is different. Though he can’t beat me, he’s very good at hiding and loves to play dirty tricks. He’s always ambushing me rather than fighting me head on. So before I kill him, it’s better for you, Dad, and Mum to stay here.”

Zhao Yao continued to explain in detail the whole situation with the King of Death, shocking Zhao Xue.

“King of Death’s powers are very troublesome. Although I can kill him now, many other people will die with him as well,” Zhao Yao patted his chest and said, “But who am I? Am I someone who would do such a heinous thing?”

Dust Ball shouted from afar, “Zhao Yao! Bald Head and his gang took our goods but refused to pay! Should we kill them all off tonight?”

“She’s kidding, why would we go and kill people?” Zhao Yao smiled at Zhao Xue before turning back to shout at Dust Ball, “Shut your mouth now. Why are you screaming and shouting over such a small issue? Don’t you know there’s something called WeChat message? I said before that we should digitize our work! Digitize! Can’t you understand human language?”

Zhao Xue stared at Zhao Yao doubtfully, but she still agreed in the end. “Okay, I get it. I can continue staying here for a while, but I can’t stay here forever, it’s not like I’m one of your cats. I want to go out and shop, meet up with friends and watch movies. I haven’t even graduated from university.”

Zhao Yao stroked his chin and said, “For your university, I will talk to your principal and request a leave of absence for you. As for your time here, don’t worry, it won’t be very long. By next month, at most by the month after that, I will be able to finish off the King of Death and you will be safe.”

“It’ll take that long?” Zhao Xue sighed but she knew it was for her safety. She could only nod in resignation, “Okay, I get it.”

Zhao Yao continued, “If you want to shorten the time there are other ways as well. If you borrow Sphynx cat’s powers to train every day, as long as you reach the same physical prowess as him and use your psychokinesis to borrow another supercat’s power, I will be reassured enough to let you go.”

Zhao Xue brightened up when she heard that. She thought of that time when Sphynx cat had beat up four black-fire warriors and the immense power he unleashed. It was way better than Zhao Yao’s laziness. Zhao Xue was very keen of this idea, so she nodded and said, “Okay, then I will go train with Sphynx cat first! I must become as strong as Sphynx cat.”

“Good luck!” Zhao Yao waved to the back of his sister as he thought, “Phew, finally managed to distract her. She didn’t suspect anything about ‘Sister Guang Yu’… right…”

After settling everything with the House of Cats, Zhao Yao stood on the roof of the building that night, prepared to accept Book’s punishment. To his surprise, he did not fail the mission.

He had successfully adopted one feline girl. 50*2 experience points awarded.

Zhao Yao’s eyes brightened before he quickly regained composure, “Don’t tell me it’s Zhao Xue? Speaking of which, she can be said to be living off me now as well.” At the thought of this, Zhao Yao smirked in delight and accepted the experience points with satisfaction.

As he said that, he looked up to the sky and thought, “But does my Book still have the power to issue lightning strikes?”

…

In the same night, Matcha, who had fought his way around and got beaten up in the process, looked as if he had dropped some fur as he limped in pain by the roadside looking all sad and unhappy.

“I tried so hard to pretend to be the leader of the Cao Gang yet they all betrayed me just like that. What a bunch of unloyal cats.”

Matcha’s stomach growled out loud as he winced, “I’m so hungry.” He sprawled on the side of the streets and decided to rest for a while.

At that moment, a young girl walked past hurriedly with a cat in her arms, looking lovingly at the cat while stroking the cat’s head.

At the sight of this Matcha sighed in envy as he said to himself, “Other cats all have their owners to hug them. Now, I have become a stray that no one hugs.”

The cat in the young girl’s arm twitched his ears as he shouted at Matcha, “Brother! Save me please! This woman is bringing me out to be neutered! Help!”

“That cat sounds like he’s saying something? He sounds agitated. Well, he’s probably excited, being hugged by someone,” Matcha sighed again, “Why hasn’t Zhao Yao come to fetch me? Don’t tell me he really wants to kick me out?” He took out his phone and opened his chat history with Zhao Yao, wanting to send him news about himself but he hesitated.

Seeing the low battery on his phone, Matcha thought, “Forget it. I should just charge my phone first.”

Outside Xiaoyu’s house, Matcha wriggled and crawled up onto the windowsill and peeked through the curtains to check the room. He saw Xiaoyu lying on the sofa in the living room caressing Fish Ball’s back with her leg.

“Even Fish Ball has someone to dote on him,” Matcha thought about the pee he had held in on the school campus today, “Forget it, since Xiaoyu is inside, I won’t disturb their happy moment.”

Inside the house, Fish Ball carefully sent a voice message saying, “Xiaoyu, could you not use me as a leg rest, you’re a little heavy.”

“Are you saying I’m fat?!”

“No, Xiaoyu, you are the cutest, prettiest, and most attractive person ever,” Fish Ball said, “But could you please use your hand to stroke me instead of using your leg.”

“No, you were drenched in pee and that traumatized me. I only dare to use my leg to touch you now. I don’t dare to touch you with my hands anymore.”

The husky barked twice as he gloated over Fish Ball’s misfortune.

Xiaoyu pointed to the husky and chided, “You still have the cheek to bark? You just shit wherever you like outside, then you still sit on it and cover your butt in shit. Starting from today, you are not allowed to sit on the floor at home with your butt for one whole week. Do you understand?”

Noodle cried sadly, “How can you blame me for this. When I was shitting halfway the wall suddenly collapsed, I was so scared that my legs gave way.”

Matcha walked alone on the cold hard streets as he thought about what he should do next.

“Seriously, isn’t it just because I ate a slice of Elizabeth’s cake? This Zhao Yao, he’s just biased towards Elizabeth and the rest. What’s the big deal with ragdoll cats?”

Images of the ragdoll cats Elizabeth, Catherine and Diana subconsciously appeared in his mind.
