“This… the soul origin of ants is too little!” Yan Chong was somewhat speechless after killing a few ants.

According to Inheritance Knowledge, the soul origin was a mysterious thing. It was the core and essence of the soul. It was related to the strength, vitality, and wisdom of life. For ordinary people on Earth, the soul origin was usually around 1 to 10 points.

However, the ants’ soul origin was actually at the level of one in ten million. This was lower than what Yan Chong had expected. It was obviously impossible to obtain XP by farming ant nests.

Yan Chong could only entrust the source of the XP to the slaughterhouse. He hoped that the soul origins of the chickens, ducks, cows, and sheep, which were similar to humans, were close to humans. However, based on their intelligence, their XP was probably much lower than humans.

Yan Chong was not in a hurry to cook when he returned home. Now that the problem of being sleepy has been solved, his life should be back on track. To celebrate his obtaining of the Demon Eye bloodline, Yan Chong looked at the 5-digit living allowance on his phone and considered ordering a sumptuous takeaway.

“Meow ~” At this moment, Yan Chong suddenly heard an extremely weak cat’s meow. It sounded very childish. To be honest, if not for the fact that his five senses had improved greatly due to the fusion of bloodlines, he would not have heard such a weak sound normally.

Walking to the window of the living room, Yan Chong realized that there was a kitten lying on the window ledge outside.

How did this little kitten get to the window? One has to know that Yan Chong’s house was on the fifth floor, about twenty meters above the ground. The window was less than twenty centimeters long. It was easy to fall down if one stood on it.

The kitten was only about ten centimeters long and looked like an American Short Fur. Its body was mostly white, and there were some black stripes on its face and body. Its two eyes were big and blinking, looking soft and cute.

If a girl saw this, her heart would probably melt and she would definitely rush up to hug and love it. Even Yan Chong, who boasted that he was a straight man, couldn’t help his thoughts of wanting to bring it in and raise it.

Yan Chong hurriedly ran to the window and opened it, preparing to catch the little kitten. After all, the position at the window was too dangerous. How much XP would it be if it fell down? Yan Chong shook his head and quickly killed the last thought in his mind.

The little kitten suddenly shivered and looked pitifully at the human walking over, full of helplessness and curiosity.

Just as Yan Chong reached out the window, he suddenly thought of something and activated [Reading] on the little kitten.

Race: Silver Cat Race

Occupation: Arcanist

Battle Power: D+

Power: 0.5, Agility: 0.9, Intelligence: 3.2

Constitution: 0.6, Spirit: 2.7, Charm: 4.9

Status: Weak / Cursed (Time remaining: 9999 years).

Shock!!! This was a cat with a story!

Although he did not know what the Silver Cat Race meant, it was obviously much higher than Yan Chong’s Black Iron Race. He did not know why, but he felt that it was impressive. Furthermore, this cat had a profession! It was an Arcanist which was full of mystery!

What made Yan Chong feel the most ashamed was that this cat’s combat power rating was D+, which far exceeded Yan Chong’s D- and Kung Fu master, Teacher Ye Da’s Grade D. In other words, even if this cat was surrounded by more than ten burly men, she could still easily defeat it!

Also, her intelligence, spirit, and charm attributes were abnormally high. Perhaps, even humans were not as smart as her. Not to mention, the curse on her would make one uneasy and would let one’s imagination run wild.

A gentle breeze blew into the room. Yan Chong could not help but shudder. He knew that there must be something fishy about such a small cat appearing outside the fifth floor window.

“It feels like something weird has been happening to me recently.”

Yan Chong stared at the little kitten and held his hand out of the window. He paused for a minute and the scene was very awkward. After that, the little kitten revealed a look of longing, anticipation, and encouragement. Yan Chong grabbed her, pulled her into the house, and closed the window.

“Whether it’s a blessing or a calamity, I can’t avoid it. No matter what, I’ll take it.”

Yan Chong felt a sense of heroism. Since this cat was extraordinary, a window would not be able to stop her. So he might as well face it calmly. Besides, the acquisition of the Demon Eye Warlock bloodline gave Yan Chong quite a bit of confidence.

As his palm came into contact with the little kitten, a warm and soft touch came from his palm. Yan Chong could not help but rub the cat in his hand as she let out a soft and cute meow.

At the same time, another message appeared before Yan Chong.

Bloodline: Human B+ (Sealed, XP needed: 998), Flame Talent A- (XP needed: 1024).

Yan Chong was deep in thought after looking at the angry kitten.

Just now, he had used [Reading] to check his teacher’s status and could easily see the other party’s bloodline and skill information. This did not match the description of [Reading] in the Inheritance Knowledge—a Grade D [Reading] should not have such a comprehensive ability.

On the other hand, he had read the skill [Learning] from the Inheritance Knowledge. However, that could only check, replicate, and affix the bloodline as he met the other party’s eyes or he had physical contact with the other party. Moreover, there was no XP required to replicate the inheritance knowledge on Ye Da.

He placed the little kitten on the ground. As expected, the Inheritance Knowledge that appeared just now disappeared. This gave Yan Chong a vague guess. He hugged the kitten with both hands again and raised it in front of his eyes. From time to time, he touched the cat’s head, completely ignoring the kitten’s powerless struggles.

“You can understand what I’m saying, right?”

“Stop pretending. I know you’re not normal.”

“You’re a cat with a story.”

“Come on. Tell me your story. Maybe I can help you.”

“Come on guys, tell me your story, I can help you.”

“Hi, do you understand? Can you speak Chinese?”

Yan Chong said to the little kitten.

“Led go!”

Yan Chong’s eyes widened when he heard the intermittent and unclear sounds of Chinese. Even though he had a strong mental fortitude and was mentally prepared, it was his first time hearing a cat speak human language. So his worldview was still severely affected.

“You really know how to speak!” Yan Chong exclaimed in delight.

“Of course!” The little kitten said disdainfully. Her learning ability seemed to be very strong. It was difficult for her to speak just now, but now she immediately became fluent. However, her voice was still weak and soft.

“What is this place?” The little kitten asked.

“This is my house. It is I who wanted to ask why you appeared at my window?” Yan Chong was a little speechless.

“I mean, what continent is this? The Eastern Continent or the Southern Continent? No, it’s neither of them. I’ve been there before. It doesn’t look like it at all. It doesn’t look like the Northern Continent either. It won’t be so hot.” The little kitten’s voice became softer and softer. It was full of doubts.

“What do you mean by the Eastern and Southern Continents? Tell me first. Who are you? Why do you speak human language when you’re a cat?” Yan Chong was puzzled. He did not know what was going on either. Too many things had happened today. Hence, his psychological endurance was much stronger and so he could converse with a cat calmly.

“My name is Catherine, and I am a great Arcanist!” Catherine said proudly. “Now, hurry up and put the great Catherine down! Do you know how uncomfortable I feel?”

“Oh, I’m sorry.” Yan Chong quickly placed Catherine on the ground. As a cat, Catherine’s body was soft and not as big as Yan Chong’s palm. It felt good to the touch. Yan Chong shook his hands and felt a little lost.

“Let me tell you, I’m not a cat. I was cursed to become like this!” Catherine said angrily and seemed to have thought of something when she saw Yan Chong’s expression and actions.
