Eternal Heavenly Emperor-Chapter 305 - 295 Make an End

Chu Hao only felt as if his hands were about to break.

This strike was not meant to be taken head-on. Logically, a person should have been blown away by a palm like that, dissipating the immense force. But Chu Hao’s strength surpassed merely being blown away, yet it was not enough to take it completely, resulting in the current predicament.

Fortunately, his bones had just undergone remodeling and were even harder than the Barbaric Girl’s, so although every bone in his body was colliding and making a violent noise, he somehow managed to bear it.

Hiss!

Upon witnessing this scene, everyone’s eyes nearly popped out of their sockets.

Before this, no one had been able to receive a blow from a Cat Demon without hitting the ground, yet Chu Hao managed to stand firm! True to his status as the new leader of the Fledgling Dragon List, this prodigy seemed capable of surpassing an era.

"Meow, I didn’t expect your physique to reach such a level!" Fat Cat stretched out a paw to scratch its whiskers, "It seems I’ve underestimated you."

Chu Hao pulled back his hands, feeling almost no sensation in both arms, just numbness. As he began to walk, his feet felt as if they were filled with lead, making every step difficult. However, after a few steps, his blood and qi circulated more smoothly, and the discomfort on his body quickly disappeared.

"You can enter the city now," Fat Cat said, waving its paw.

"Little White, come with us," the Barbaric Girl said longingly as she gazed at Fat Cat, entertaining the idea of luring it away.

"It’s Lord White Emperor to you!" Fat Cat jumped up, standing its tail stiffly and shouted indignantly, as if its tail had been stepped on.

"How boring," the Barbaric Girl huffed and walked into the small door.

Chu Hao also took a deep look at Fat Cat, a talking cat was completely beyond his expectations.

Originally, he thought that Sky Martial Star was a high martial world, but ever since the moving Skeleton Monster appeared, he began to sense something amiss, and zombies emerging only deepened his suspicion.

To think that now, even a cat could talk, and with a rascally demeanor to boot, was like a Cat Demon personified.

This was no longer just a high martial world!

In the current world, ferocious beasts are just ferocious beasts, Martial Artists are Martial Artists; the line between them is clear, and they are in a state of complete antagonism, each devouring the other. But in Ancient Times, it’s said that powerful Divine Beasts could even transform into human shapes, blurring the boundaries between the two.

Chu Hao could not help but yearn, wondering what kind of world Ancient Times were, with not just clouds of mighty beings but also various "monsters" stirring one’s blood to boiling.

The three of them walked into the city which was naturally desolate, with only metallic buildings standing tall, very desolate.

"Let’s go in and have a look," Chu Hao suggested.

The Barbaric Girl, of course, had no objection, and Ke Ruoshan was also very curious, so the three began checking the houses one by one.

Very ordinary.

Besides being made of metal, these houses appeared no different from ordinary ones, with nothing special about them.

"What do you think is the origin of that Fat Cat?" Chu Hao suddenly asked.

This was an unsolved mystery, as no one had ever seen a talking cat before. It is said that even War God level ferocious beasts can’t speak and can only transmit their consciousness through soul vibrations.

This form of expression, higher than language, also transcends the barrier of language, but speaking... has always been a human prerogative.

Of course, there’s also Ancient Times. It’s said that back then, Divine Beasts could transform into humans, so speaking was not strange, but that was more than a million years ago. To say that Fat Cat had come from such an ancient past... who would believe it?

"In this world, apart from Spiritual Medicine, there shouldn’t be any creature capable of living for millions of years, right?" Ke Ruoshan guessed.

Spiritual Medicine is an anomaly, often living for tens of thousands of years, but their lengthy lifespans come at a great cost—they virtually bear no self-protection capability and are at the mercy of others.

"Could that cat be a spirit of Spiritual Medicine transformed?" Chu Hao wondered, but he startled himself with his own suggestion.

Divine Beast transformation was already a legend from Ancient Times, let alone the transformation of Spiritual Medicine, which was unheard of even back then.

"Indeed, a spirit of Spiritual Medicine can conjure manifold illusions to bewilder people, but they lack physical form," Ke Ruoshan immediately added, "Yun Cai held Fat Cat earlier, proving that it’s not a transformation of Spiritual Medicine."

"Right, right, right, that big Fat Cat must be so lazy that it’s gotten that fat," the Barbaric Girl promptly agreed.

"Meow, it is not nice to talk badly behind a cat’s back," the voice of Fat Cat suddenly rang out.

Chu Hao and Ke Ruoshan were startled, while the Barbaric Girl was filled with curiosity, looking around and asking, "Little kitty, where are you?"

"It’s Lord White Emperor to you!" Fat Cat’s annoyed voice came through right away.

"Little kitty, how can you hear us talking?" The Barbaric Girl continued unaffected.

"Meow," Fat Cat sighed helplessly, seeming to have no way to deal with the girl, but soon it declared proudly, "Within this Black Iron City, I am the king of all things, and everything must obey my commands."

"Then bring out whatever treasures are here, and save us the trouble of looking," the Barbaric Girl said unabashedly.

"Meow—" Fat Cat groaned and then fell silent.

"Hey hey hey, little kitty, say something!" the Barbaric Girl said to the air.

Chu Hao couldn’t help but laugh out loud, "Still, you’re the best, scaring that rogue cat away just like that."

"Black Heaven Sect is very mysterious, rumoured to have possibly obtained an inheritance from Ancient Times. That fat cat might really have some connection to Ancient Times," Ke Ruoshan said.

"Let’s not worry about that now. Since this is the ruins of Black Heaven Sect, there should be some good things left behind." Chu Hao was the first to step out the door.

"Ptui, what Black Heaven Sect, they’re not worthy to be called the owners of this place!" The voice of the Fat Cat reappeared; this time its figure also appeared in front of Chu Hao, floating in the air, and it was much smaller, its body transparent and enveloped in a bubble.

The Barbaric Girl, curious, went over and poked it with her finger; with a pop, the bubble burst and the figure of the Fat Cat immediately disappeared. But then another bubble appeared, and the shrunken version of the Fat Cat was still inside it.

"Hahaha, this is fun." The girl poked it with her finger continuously, pop pop pop pop, one bubble after another burst, causing the girl to laugh sweetly in delight and thoroughly enjoy herself.

"Fat Cat, you say that Black Heaven Sect isn’t the real owner of this place?" Chu Hao was even more curious about what the other had said.

"Of course not, meow." The Fat Cat said haughtily, but immediately got annoyed, "You wild girl, have you had enough? Watch out or I’ll turn you into roasted dragon ribs."

Chu Hao then asked, "So who exactly is the original master of Black Iron City?"

"Meow, why should I tell you?" said the Fat Cat coyly.

"Cut it out. Maybe even you don’t know!" Chu Hao tried to provoke.

"Haha, you think you can use reverse psychology on me? Boy, you’re still green! I’ve lived for nine lives—meow, I almost let it slip again," the Fat Cat pulled back in the nick of time.

"You’ve lived for nine lives?" Chu Hao was shocked internally, but his tone didn’t change, "You really know how to bluff."

"You brat, don’t you know that cats have nine lives?" the Fat Cat boasted, "I am a divine cat of heaven and earth, I can punch Azure Dragons and kick White Tigers. In the future, I shall become the first Cat Emperor in history."

Hearing this, Chu Hao couldn’t help but doubt again. The words of the Fat Cat were a mix of truth and bluffs, uncertain which were true and which were false.

"Black Heaven Sect has been destroyed for over a hundred thousand years, don’t tell me you were already around back then." Chu Hao probed.

Even a War God only had a lifespan of a thousand years. Even if the Fat Cat could really live nine lives, that would only total a mere ten thousand years. How could it possibly have lived through a hundred thousand years?

"What a curious child you are. When I roamed the world, your ancestors didn’t even know where they were!" the Fat Cat huffed, "Had I not been asleep at the time, would it have been the turn of those Black Heaven Sect brats to occupy Black Iron City?"

"What exactly is this city?" Chu Hao asked.

Someone’s final resting place," the Fat Cat replied.

"Final resting place? Whose final resting place?" Chu Hao pressed on.

"You brat, why are you so full of questions? Why should I answer you?" the Fat Cat snorted, and after its bubble was burst by the Barbaric Girl once more, it did not reappear.

"What an irresponsible Fat Cat," Chu Hao shook his head.

"Let’s go somewhere else."

The three of them started to explore the city along the streets. They also encountered people who had entered here earlier, but since no treasures had been found yet, naturally, no one wanted to start trouble.

After all, most of the people here came from Great Sects, and the death of any one of them would cause a huge uproar.

As they walked, three people suddenly approached them head-on.

Oh?

Chu Hao suddenly stopped in his tracks, his gaze fixed on the person walking on the far left.

Chai Kang!

Due to the Star Shattering Pill, Chai Jian had wanted to kill Chu Hao, gaining both wealth and revenge, but ended up losing his life to Chu Hao’s hands instead. And to avenge his brother, Chai Kang had hunted Chu Hao for two days and nights, which led to Chu Hao consuming an entire precious White Jade Ginseng.

Later, they faced each other again in the Fledgling Dragon List ranking battle, where Chu Hao’s strength was far superior. But due to the protection of the arena, he was unable to kill Chai Kang.

Now, it was the third time the two had met.

Chu Hao saw Chai Kang, and Chai Kang naturally also saw Chu Hao. His steps also slowed down, immediately falling out of sync with the other two.

"Junior Brother Chai, what’s wrong?" asked a man with a commanding presence.

"Chai Kang, long time no see," Chu Hao said loudly, his voice very cold.’

Chai Kang huffed, "Chu Hao, what do you want to do?"

"Oh, so this kid is Chu Hao." The two men with Chai Kang both nodded, one dressed in black, the other in purple. Chu Hao was absolutely the hottest topic in the past two months, the new number one on the Fledgling Dragon List, especially having replaced Yuan Tiangang in that position, it would be impossible for him not to be remembered.

Chu Hao looked at Chai Kang, his eyes filled with murderous intent, "It’s time we settled our grudge, don’t you think?" (To be continued.
