I couldn't help but feel that Furball's voice had a certain allure to it. Was this creature really going to eat me?
Honestly, beings like Furball should never have come into this world. They were ancient sacred beasts, carrying countless secrets within them. If their inner spiritual power awakened, it would be a terrifying force!
"It seems Mr. Xia ultimately refused."
At that moment, Yamaguchi Miho spoke again. She lightly tossed aside the oiled paper umbrella in her hand, and in an instant, her hair exploded into chaos. Her black locks danced wildly in the torrential rain, and her energy surged violently. Then, with a gentle wave of her hand, a torrent of chaotic energy shot directly toward me!
This woman...
She was not one to hold back when it came to fighting!
My gaze sharpened. She appeared calm on the surface, but her actions revealed her as a master of psychological warfare, trying to make me relax before launching an attack.
However, since I was here today, I had no intention of retreating even a step. My mind was intensely focused. As soon as I saw her make a move, I gripped my long knife tightly and prepared to counterattack. After all, she was at the Ninth Stage level while I was stuck at the threshold of the Ninth Stage, unable to advance further. There was a significant gap in our realms; I had to give it my all.
At that moment, I had no time to think about Furball. Just as I was about to unleash my full strength against Yamaguchi Miho, Furball suddenly stood up from my shoulder and dashed toward Yamaguchi Miho with astonishing speed. He was much quicker than me; by the time I reacted, he had already met the oncoming wave of energy she unleashed. I nearly jumped out of my skin in shock.
Then, Furball opened his mouth wide, and his eyes changed color in an instant—one eye pure white and the other pitch black—a bizarre sight indeed.
In that moment, all the chaotic energy surged into Furball's mouth, and in the blink of an eye, that violent energy completely vanished.
This scene left me utterly dumbfounded. Instinctively, I halted my charge and stared at Furball's round little backside in shock; my astonishment was beyond words.
That had been a full-force attack from a Master Level Onmyoji! And just like that, it was swallowed whole?
What kind of existence was this child?
My uncertainty deepened.
Not only was I horrified; Yamaguchi Miho was even more so.
To be precise, she was no longer just shocked; she was terrified. Despite the dim light and pouring rain, I could still see her face turn pale as she instinctively took a step back. The sound of her wooden clogs hitting the ground echoed sharply—a small sound but particularly clear amidst the rain.
A Master had retreated just like that.
Furball seemed unsatisfied, licking its lips with a pink tongue, looking as if it craved more. Once again, it floated towards Yamaguchi Miho!
At this point, even if Yamaguchi Miho wanted to retreat, it was too late. I saw a flash of determination in her eyes as she brewed a terrifying Energy Storm beside her. This time, it was even more ferocious than before, clearly pushed to the edge by Furball. With a wave of her hand, the energy torrent surged towards Furball.
As a result, Furball opened its mouth and swallowed it once more!
This time, Yamaguchi Miho had no temper left. Without a word, she turned and ran. Despite wearing a kimono and wooden sandals, her speed was impressive. Her hips swayed as she dashed forward, the clacking of her sandals echoing on the muddy path. In the blink of an eye, she had covered several dozen meters.
Furball seemed to find Yamaguchi Miho's energy particularly "tasty," showing no intention of letting her go. It extended its pink tongue, licking its lips repeatedly, and then chased after Yamaguchi Miho directly. Its speed appeared even faster than before, making me wonder if it grew stronger by devouring energy. It certainly didn't possess such terrifying speed before; waking up from its slumber had made it significantly more powerful. In an instant, Furball appeared in front of Yamaguchi Miho, blocking her path!
With its furry arms outstretched, it gave Yamaguchi Miho a gentle push on the shoulder. It was impossible to tell how much force was used; she shot backward like a cannonball, crashing into the mud with a thud. She spat out a mouthful of black blood, her elegance and composure vanished in that moment. With disheveled hair and a wild look, she resembled a ghost as she hoarsely roared at Furball, "Get away from me! Get away! Devil!"
Instinctively, she attacked Furball again and again, but each strike was swallowed by it. It was clear that Yamaguchi Miho was truly on the brink of collapse; every attempt to escape resulted in being pushed back by Furball. The whole scene felt like a cat playing with a mouse. Furball did everything it could to provoke Yamaguchi Miho into attacking, only to consume all her energy in the end.
This method was nothing short of torture!
To devour her energy, Furball had turned Yamaguchi Miho's struggle for survival into an impossible task; if it were me in her position, I would have likely broken down as well. Every attack was ineffective and became mere sustenance for Furball while draining every ounce of strength from her—who could endure such treatment?
Especially since this was a dog!
I couldn't help but twitch at the corner of my eye; poor Yamaguchi Miho really drew the short straw—just when she needed it most, Furball woke up.
This torment lasted nearly three or four minutes until Yamaguchi Miho lay on the ground like a defeated dog. She looked completely drained of energy and could barely stand!
At that moment, Furball finally returned to my shoulder, leaning over and saying, "I'm full and sleepy," before promptly falling asleep.
It seemed that even Furball couldn't endlessly consume energy!
When it absorbed enough energy, it would fall into slumber to digest and grow. If there was too much energy, Furball might not be able to handle it either; excess could lead to being overwhelmed!
Thus, Furball wasn't invincible; it had its own fatal flaws. If faced with a sufficiently powerful opponent, it could easily be obliterated by sheer force!
It looked like I needed to keep a close eye on this creature in the future; otherwise, if something went wrong due to negligence, I feared I would regret it for life.
Gradually, I began to grasp some characteristics of Furball.
I patted Furball's head and then strode over to Yamaguchi Miho. The moment she saw me approaching, her pupils dilated sharply, and she hurriedly exclaimed, "Don't kill me! I can serve you!"
I was taken aback, raised an eyebrow, and hesitated for a moment before giving her three words: "I refuse!"
"Why?"
Yamaguchi Miho was stunned. "I can help you a lot!"
"But if you can betray Dong Ba now, you will surely betray me in the future."
I sighed lightly. "I lack many things, but betrayal is not one of them."
With that, the knife in my hand fell.
Thud!
Yamaguchi Miho became just another Lost Soul beneath my blade. Her blood mingled with the rain, and until her last breath, she never closed her eyes.
