Chapter 433: Greed and Senses

Lumi only smiled.
Stop her?
It could do that, but why would it try to stop some ignorant creature with a death wish?
“If you want to stop me, bring it on! I’ll find out what you really are,” said the cat.
Lumi chuckled. “Why should I stop you? If you want to die, go for it.”
The cat wondered why the fire phoenix had the essence of nature with her and why Lumi said those things. There had to be an explanation. Her question was her way of probing Lumi for helpful information.
Unfortunately, Lumi didn’t entertain her.
If Lumi won’t stop me, why did it say I had a death wish? Surely, I can handle that fire phoenix. Although I’ll offend Yagon once more, once I defeat the phoenix and absorb the essence of nature, I won’t need to be afraid of the dragon anymore.
With enough power, she could afford to offend anybody.
“Let me remind you that I’m waiting for somebody. Are you sure you want to do this?
“The Dusk Soul Forest has lost the wolf king, the spider, the ice snake, and the four-winged bat. That’s a considerable loss. If you and the tiger die too, the forest will become defenseless.
“Are you sure you want to go through with your plan?” Lumi asked.
It didn’t want to lose another capable member of the forest. Although the cat was cunning, she was still an advanced sacred beast and one of the best in the forest. It hoped the three-eyed cat could behave herself.
As expected, the cat started hesitating. Lumi was a mysterious creature that might have been sent by “them.” She took its words seriously.
If Lumi was waiting for somebody, that person had to be very important. Only such a person could have a treasure like the essence of nature.
Once she figured that out, the cat gave up on the idea. “Are you from the other side?”
Lumi smiled. “Yes and no.”
Firey and the fire phoenix arrived at that moment.
“You stupid dog!” Phoe lost her temper as soon as she saw the dog.
He had absorbed her attack the other day and was completely fine. Phoe couldn’t stand it. She would have fought the dog to the end if Himmel Soan hadn’t stopped her.
Firey was drooling at the sight of the poisonous mad dog. “That dog looks so delicious!”
“Firey, let’s take it down!”
The poisonous mad dog wasn’t afraid of Phoe, but he kept falling back when he saw Firey as if it was scared.
“Phoe, I only ate your attack. Get over it already!” said the dog.
“I used my full power, but you just opened your mouth and ate it! You humiliated me! I won’t get over it! You must apologize!” Phoe stressed each word.
She might sound reasonable, but in fact, she was making trouble out of nothing. The dog could only shut up and listen.
Seeing this, Lumi jumped off the tree and landed in front of everybody.
“Phoe, I think that’s enough.” Lumi smiled.
“Lumi?” Phoe was confused. She wasn’t friends with Lumi, but why did it sound like they knew each other forever?
“Where’s your master?” Lumi asked Firey.
“He’s coming,” Firey said casually.
Phoe was dumbfounded. He was coming?
Firey’s master was Himmel Soan, Pheo’s brother-in-law.
“Firey, didn’t you say Brother-in-law wouldn’t know about it? Why is he coming here?” Phoe nervously looked over her shoulder like a child who had done something wrong.
Firey was still drooling at the poisonous mad dog. He was so scared that he hid behind Lumi.
“What’s going on?” The cat was dumbfounded.
Brother-in-law?
Master?
Who were they talking about?
What was the relationship between the dog and Lumi?
“Isn’t Phoe’s sister Gina?” The cat suddenly recalled a woman, and her hair stood up.
Brother-in-law? Gina’s partner? How was that possible? Hadn’t Gina disappeared? How could she have a partner?
“Cat, are you still having those ideas?” Lumi teased her.
“No! Of course not! I don’t have any idea at all!” The cat shivered.
She was frightened. She couldn’t think of anything else. All she wanted to do now was to go home and cultivate for the next couple of hundred years.
It was too late to slip away now.
“Master’s here!” Firey said happily.
“Where’s Brother-in-law?” Phoe looked around.
“I’m here. Are you looking for me?” Himmel Soan suddenly showed up and asked after Phoe.
Phoe shook her head. “I’m not! I just missed you. The air here is so fresh. Brother-in-law, what brought you here?”
Himmel Soan smiled and clunked Phoe on the forehead. “I told Firey to keep an eye on you. Don’t you know what that means? I gave her permission to let you come here. Otherwise, you’ll still be in the house!
“Don’t be foolish!”
Himmel Soan scolded her while Phoe listened without saying a word. She came here because she was worried about Yagon. She saw the cat killing the bat, and the tiger would fight Yagon later.
She knew Yagon would win. That was why she was so at ease.
“Cat, are you going to leave, or do I have to make you?” Himmel Soan said indifferently. After all, the cat had killed the bat and helped Yagon greatly.
He didn’t want to do anything to the cat, so he let her go.
