Chapter 273: 273

Ying Yue was Han Fei’s trump card. The little girl had never really unleashed her full power before Han Fei so no one really knew the true extent of her power. As the eyes opened inside the room, an indescribable pressure enveloped everyone present. The cat-faced monster inside the cage of despair felt it as well. It threw the dying vet to the ground and looked around with alert. Being the centre of all the scrutiny, Ying Yue walked out from absolute darkness, twisting the light as she went.

Her small body contained a power distinct from other Lingering Spirits. The two dark hollows stared transfixed at the cat-faced monster. Black blood leaked out from her skin. As Ying Yue lifted her hands towards the cage, all the eyes bled. A red world appeared hidden inside the endless darkness. As you met her gaze, you would be sucked into that darkness!

Ying Yue who lived forever in darkness and had never been touched by light had constructed a world from fear and torture in her mind. There was no light and love there, definitely no love and friends, there was only an endless sea of pain!

The cat-faced monster wailed as it used its sharp claws to puncture its brain. It could feel something trying to leave its brain but it was unable to stop it. Its desperation only caused more wounds to appear on its body. This was the first time Han Fei saw Ying Yue fight with her full force. Ying Yue’s power was very unique, it was not a curse, or a psychological torment. It did not contain yin energy or negative emotions. She appeared to be able to pull her victims’ consciousness into the world inside her eyes.

Both parties were equally powerful. Ying Yue’s body trembled. Seeing that, Han Fei ordered the other neighbours to help her. Weep morphed the cage into chains, Lee Hou attacked from the front, while Han Fei used Rest in Peace to add more wounds on the cat-faced monster’s body. ‘The 5 of us should be able to defeat it now!’

As more wounds appeared on its body, the cat-faced monster pierced its claws under its skin and tore off another layer. Its presence became more foreboding but the wounds caused by Rest in Peace remained. With a loud growl, its eyes bled with blood. Ying Yue’s body was reflected in its eyes like she was the only thing it could see now. The arteries under its skin pulsed. The monster rose to full height. Instead of attacking anymore, it slammed its fist into the floor!

The floor cracked. Horrible scent of blood and decomposition drifted out from the ground. ‘The pet store has a basement?’

The revealed basement was frightening to say the least. A mass grave was hidden under the cute pet shop. It was stuffed with the carcasses of different animals. Most of them had been sewn together from the needlework visible on their bodies. To Han Fei’s consternation, some of the ‘failed products’ inside the grave were still alive. Their souls lingered in the grave as they struggled painfully. The cat-faced monster dropped into the grave, causing a major splash. It picked up the dead carcasses and stuffed them into its wounds. The animal bodies melted into the wounds but they were unable to restore the wounds caused by Rest in Peace.

“It’s growing stronger!” With Han Fei leading the way, all the neighbours charged forward. No one present would be able to take on the cat-faced monster alone. Its scary recovery ability could only be stopped by Rest in Peace but the blade’s owner, Han Fei was too physically weak compared to the monster. If he had to face the monster alone, he wouldn’t even have the chance to use the knife. Weep and Lee Huo created openings for Han Fei to attack with Rest in Peace. As Han Fei weakened the monster, it became more susceptible to Ying Yue’s power. There was something core to the monster which was being sucked into Ying Yue’s eyes.

“Keep on pushing!” The highly intense battle lasted for a whole 20 minutes before the cat-faced monster finally cracked. The threads around his heart and head burst open. A lingering spirit shaped like a black kitten was drawn into Ying Yue’s eyes. The growling stopped immediately. The cat-faced monster’s body froze and everyone turned to Ying Yue. In the world of her eyes, a wounded black kitten hissed angrily. Eventually Ying Yue closed her eyes. After a long time, Ying Yue’s eyes started to bleed like the kitten had scratched behind her eyelids. She walked towards Han Fei and grabbed Han Fei’s arm. She laid her hand on the ghost tattoo.

“This will be painful.” After giving that warning, Ying Yue opened her eyes and stared at Han Fei’s back. Han Fei had no idea what happened. As he turned around to look, it felt like someone had taken a brand to his back. The pain was so intense that he bit on his lips until they bled. Moments later, the pain disappeared. Ying Yue looked like she was about to faint as well.

“Ying Yue?” Turning around, Han Fei noticed that the ghost tattoo had a big change. The ghost face was now being bitten by a giant black feline.

“Fuelled by endless torment, the cat is impossible to kill, I had no choice but to trap it inside your tattoo. That should help you though.” Ying Yue sauntered back to Weep’s urn. “When you gain its trust, you can let it out.” After that, Ying Yue returned back to the urn. Touching the tattoo, Han Fei heard the system notification.

“Notification for Player 0000! You’ve obtained a beginner level Grade F Ghost Tattoo— Nine Lives.

“Ghost Tattoo—Nine Lives: Gain 5 extra resistance to blood and flesh type curse. The tattoo can help you survive 9 fatal blows.

“Notification for Player 0000! You’ve completed Grade G Hidden Mission, Adopt a Pet! Obtained 1 free skill point! Obtained a new pet—Nine Lives!

“Pet Training (Grade G Upgradeable Skill): Only by mastering the basic science behind pet training and adopting the correct training method can you see the training effect double on your pets. It’ll make your training effort more effective.”

Han Fei was baffled. He finally got his first pet in his life. He hadn’t had one before. ‘So I’m a cat owner now?’

Han Fei tried to communicate with the kitten inside the tattoo. When he attempted to touch the kitten’s head, the kitten’s wounds tore open and it grew in size. It wanted to leap out from the tattoo to bite at Han Fei’s hand. ‘Such a cute kitty. It doesn’t aim for my neck but my hand. That shows a purity of heart. Even though its loyalty is zero now, it’s trainable.’ It was not easy to find a pet in the cryptic world, so Han Fei did not ask for much.

‘I need to do something to show that I mean it no harm. A good beginning is half the journey.’ With that in mind, Han Fei turned to the vet. The vet involuntarily shivered. “Based on your wounds, you’re not going to survive. Why not make your death more valuable?” Practicing a life of no waste, Han Fei used Soul-depth Touch to pick up the dying vet and placed him beside the ghost tattoo.
