Chapter 1991: Chapter 1992: Tell Me, Who Are You Really? (Second Update)
"I almost let you trick me into talking again. Just remember, these matters are not for you to worry about now."
"You can’t say this, you can’t say that, then what can you tell me?" Xue An was silent for a moment before finally speaking coldly.
"There’s plenty I can tell you, like how to use this Command Talisman Armor and so on!"
The tabby cat said cheerfully, and then the scene in front of them suddenly changed, reverting from the desolate battlefield back to the armory filled with countless pieces of Command Talisman Armor.
The entire process showed no signs, appearing so natural, as if everything was as it should be.
Xue An didn’t look at the Command Talisman Armor, but stared deeply at the tabby cat, "So... you’ve been waiting here for ten thousand years just to tell me this?"
The tabby cat shrugged. Never mind how it did it, but to Xue An, it felt as if it shrugged, then said nonchalantly.
"Actually, the master didn’t really expect any descendants of the Hua Clan when he assigned me to guard this armory. It was all for that slight possibility. If it happened, great joy would follow; if not, it wouldn’t matter either. I would just take it as a ten-thousand-year-long sleep!"
Xue An was stunned, and after a long while, he said somewhat blankly, "You mean, you gamble a ten-thousand-year period on the possibility of someone appearing, despite not knowing if they will come?"
"Yeah! Is there a problem?"
Suddenly, Xue An fell silent.
Because he really didn’t know how to respond to the tabby cat’s words.
Ten thousand years, even for the top powers in the Multiverse, it’s an extremely long time.
In fact, an average Immortal King might not last ten thousand years before fading away.
After all, entropy increases everywhere, and without holding destiny in their hands, even Immortal Kings eventually perish.
But the other side didn’t care about using such a long time to wait for someone who might never appear, so what could Xue An say?
Exclaim in surprise?
"Young friend, I know you’re a bit surprised, but since you could make it here, it proves you are the one carrying destiny. Eventually, you’ll understand that when life reaches a certain length, waste ceases to exist, just as you wouldn’t care about a minute, neither do I about ten thousand years of sleep!"
"So, do you possess nearly infinite life?" Xue An asked.
"Hehe, where would I qualify as having infinity!" The tabby cat chuckled self-deprecatingly, then a trace of fear appeared in its eyes as it lowered its voice.
"You must know... in the eyes of certain beings, even time is just a toy to be manipulated at will!"
Upon hearing this, a profound look of contemplation emerged in Xue An’s eyes.
The tabby cat realized it had misspoken and hurriedly changed the subject, "Of course, it’s still a bit early for you to consider these things. I’d better quickly teach you how to use the Command Talisman Armor. These things were the master’s personally selected pieces, incredibly powerful!"
As it spoke, the tabby cat raised a paw, and several sets of armor flew towards them, ready to demonstrate for Xue An.
But then, Xue An calmly said, "Wait!"
The tabby cat was taken aback.
Afterward, Xue An slowly raised his head, looking at the tabby cat with brilliant eyes, "If I’m not mistaken, you and your master should have an inseparable connection with the Hua Clan. So, the great catastrophe of the Hua Clan ten thousand years ago, you were aware of it too?"
"And since this armory is left by your master, doesn’t it also prove that he foresaw future chaos in the Multiverse and specifically left it here?"
Faced with Xue An’s series of questions, the tabby cat kept backing away.
It wasn’t until Xue An finished speaking that it awkwardly laughed, "Sorry, I don’t know anything. I only know to leave all these things to you; that’s my mission!"
"Alright! Let me ask you, since these things were left for me, why didn’t you give them to me the last time I entered the armory, or even show up?"
Upon hearing this, the tabby cat’s eyes showed a look of panic, "Uh... this... this... "
Finally, it sighed helplessly, "Alas, forget it, I’ll be honest, yes! Last time I really should have handed these things to you, but at that time I happened to have fallen asleep, leaving only a part of my consciousness here to guard, so... "
"So you only gave me the Command Seal to enter the armory, right?"
The tabby cat nodded dejectedly, "That’s right!"
But then it protested endlessly, "But I didn’t do it on purpose. I waited here for nine thousand years without anyone coming in. Though I can endure loneliness, nine thousand years was too much, so I decided to take a nap, but who knew as soon as I fell asleep, you would arrive... "
Xue An, however, ignored its explanation and said indifferently, "Alright, since that’s the case, you have hindered the great endeavor; now this Command Talisman Armor is useless to me, farewell!"
With that said, Xue An turned and walked away.
The tabby cat panicked, flashed in front of Xue An, "Hey, don’t go! This is enough Command Talisman Armor to arm an entire army, how can you leave it?"
"Sorry, I’m not interested!" Xue An didn’t even blink as he continued to stride forward.
The tabby cat was truly anxious now, "Do you not understand what this means? With so much Command Talisman Armor at your disposal, you could become a powerful force, maybe even challenge for dominance in the Multiverse, that’s possible!"
"And what does that have to do with me?" Xue An slightly raised an eyebrow, still walking.
"Damn it, you better think twice, if you leave now, all these things will be left to others, then don’t regret it!" The tabby cat began to threaten harshly.
But unexpectedly, Xue An wasn’t buying it at all and didn’t slow his steps, striding right out.
Finally.
As Xue An took dozens of steps, about to tear through the void and leave.
The tabby cat could bear it no longer and shouted, "Alright, alright, I’m afraid of you now. Come back, I can now give you limited information, will that do?"
A faint smile appeared on Xue An’s lips, then he slowly turned around, looking at the tabby cat with shining eyes.
"Are you telling the truth?"
"Of course it’s true! Lord Cat never lies!" The tabby cat responded dejectedly, then muttering in a low voice.
"Never thought someone would use this method against me, what an oversight!"
After speaking, it listlessly lifted its head, "Say, what do you want to know, there’s only one chance!"
Xue An’s eyes turned extraordinarily brilliant, speaking solemnly, "I only want to know, who exactly are you?"
