Chapter 168 – Cat Dad’s Ally is not an Ally
Aside from the auto-resurrection, the karmic soul stone had another feature – As long as Xiaomao’s HP was full, no super boss or strong player could one-shot him regardless of the difference in strength.
In this case, Yuan Hua was a lot stronger than Xiaomao. A light attack could deal a million damage in one hit.
However, Xiaomao’s HP was 56,000. If he received a strong attack that caused more than 56,000 damage when his HP was full, his HP would never drop to zero because of the item’s effect.
Even so, Xiaomao was still killable if his HP was not at 100%. He was aware of his weaknesses. Thus, he chose to stick close to Mimir, who could easily heal him to the full HP in one spell.
DING
Just as Xiaomao had hoped, Mimir’s simple healing spell recovered his HP to the max. Now, he could withstand another strong hit from any super boss in this throne room.
“You… what did you do?!”
Yuan Hua’s level sharply dropped from 6,666 to 1,000. Her youthful appearance remained the same, but her dark aura was gone. In addition, her rings were ejected from her fingers.
Xiaomao was astonished at how effective the entity crystal was. He didn’t know that Yuan Hua was so weak without Pangu’s help.
“I’ve been removing curses left and right, but munya… I never knew that I could make someone so weak, munya.”
“This can happen when someone became an apostle to gain power,” clarified Mimir.
“But you and Taotie didn’t get weaker.”
“That’s because we had always been this strong before we were cursed. Removing the curses also removes all perks and blessings that we got from Pangu. In my case, I never got any blessing or reward. Taotie is similar to me.”
“Ah, I get it.”
Yuan Shaoqing overheard their conversation, but he didn’t chime in. He pulled Yuan Hua by the collar.
“Now, little girl. Your brother will reeducate you about what you have been doing.”
Yuan Hua didn’t give up. She yelled at his face.
“Let me down, you fool! What do you think you’re doing?! Are you betraying Lord Pangu and Lord Nian?!”
“I never intend to bow my head to any god. I’m THE EMPEROR, not THEM!”
Mercilessly, Yuan Shaoqing punched Yuan Hua in the gut. The girl’s eyes widen for a moment, then they rolled upward. She fainted and collapsed to the ground.
Xiaomao, Lucky, and Shepherd had cringe expressions on their faces. They had guessed that Yuan Hua might even be older than Yuan Shaoqing, but seeing how a grown-up man punching a pre-teen-looking girl in the stomach was horrifying.
“Big OOF, munya!”
Yuan Shaoqing carried his sister and walked toward Bush Cox. He handed her to him.
“Bring her to my wife. I’ll deal with the aftermath.”
Bush Cox nodded. He turned to Xiaomao and widely grinned before he left.
After Bush Cox and Yuan Hua were gone, Yuan Shaoqing pointed at the gate, and a yellowish force field dome was erected, blocking the exit path.
“Little kitty, I have another favor to ask you.”
“Y-Yes, munya?” Xiaomao gulped. He was afraid that the emperor might confiscate his entity crystal.
“I want you to use your artifact on everybody in this room, including me. All soldiers, generals, ministers, and officials might have gotten a few curses from Pangu’s priests or cultists that we don’t know about. Remove the curses for me.”
DING
<Emperor Yuan Shaoqing has given you a quest.>
.
Removing Curses
Yuan Shaoqing had been planning to rebel against Pangu and Nian for a long time, but he was helpless against the mysterious curses. Thanks to Mimir’s information, Yuan Shaoqing learned about your secret artifact that could remove curses.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtNow, he asked you for a favor. He wanted you to remove all curses on him and his retainers for good so that he could start mobilizing his forces against Pangu’s followers and the church.
Quest Objective: Touch everybody in the throne room with the Refined Entity Crystal.
Failure Condition: Someone escapes from the throne room, or something happens.
Quest Rewards: Contribution Points, EXP, Emperor Yuan Shaoqing’s Favor, and Others.
Failure Penalty: Unknown
*[Cathulhu Instinct]: This looks too good to be true, but you should complete this quest ASAP! ASAP! ASAP! There’s no telling what will happen if you waste your time here. MOREOVER, DO NOT TRUST YUAN SHAOQING!
*[Foresight]: Nian has already discovered what happened, and he will arrive here personally in five minutes. Complete the quest as quickly as possible and get out of here. Remember this – Although Yuan Shaoqing seems nice, HE IS NEVER YOUR ALLY! DO NOT TRUST HIM!
.
Without saying anything, Xiaomao accepted the quest and brought out the entity crystal. He touched Yuan Shaoqing’s hand.
DING
<Yuan Shaoqing is immune to Pangu Curse. The curse has been removed.>
<You have broken Pangu Curse in Yuan Hua and Yuan Shaoqing’s bodies! That blasphemous action has angered Pangu!>
<Your karma has decreased by 100,000!>
Xiaomao didn’t bother reading the notification messages. He pulled the item back and rushed to the two level-2000 generals.
DING
<Yan Liang is immune to Nian Curse. The curse has been removed.>
<Wen Chou is immune to Nian Curse. The curse has been removed.>
Not wasting time, Xiaomao rode on his flying sword and touched everybody with his crystal. He also shouted.
“Your majesty, munya! Help me organize your men to form ranks ASAP. I’m going to remove everybody’s curses before something bad happens, munya!”
“Something will happen?” Yuan Shaoqing frowned for a moment before he figured out what might happen after this. He turned to his men and shouted.
“FORM RANKS! IF ANYBODY DISOBEYS MY ORDER, YOUR HEAD WILL ROLL!”
The neutral officers obediently stood in rows, waiting for their turn. However, followers of Nian and Pangu dragged their feet and looked around in panic.
Xiaomao ignored the obedient people and rushed toward these guys first. He also glanced at the two generals that he had freed earlier.
“Help me catch these guys, munya!”
Yan Liang and Wen Chou stopped looking at their status menu and turned around. Noticing that some stragglers had dark karma and refused to cooperate, they summoned their halberds and charged at the officers.
Guo Tu shrieked and tried to escape through the gate. However, the force field barrier blocked his path.
Yan Liang showed the follower no mercy. As his level remained unchanged, he swung his halberd and cleaved the minister in half!
With just one swing, he dealt a hundred million damage. No item dropped from Guo Tu.
Meanwhile, Wen Chou caught Xin Ping. He pressed stepped on the minister’s back and beheaded him.
In less than three seconds, two level-500 were killed.
The other retainers trembled in fear. They knelt on the ground and begged Yuan Shaoqing to spare their lives.
Yuan Shaoqing scoffed, “If you want to live, get to the line and wait for your turn! No matter what happens, I’ll remove your curses, and you will no longer be a part of the Pangu Clan!”
The retainers awkwardly rushed to the line. They bit their lower lips as they had no choice.
As nobody broke ranks, Xiaomao had an easier time touching everybody. He flew over the people and touched their heads with the crystal.
.
Because of the repeated movements, Yuan Shaoqing and Tian Feng finally saw the artifact. They smirked and continued to gaze at Xiaomao.
As they were watching the cat, Tian Feng heard his lord’s voice in his mind.
‘When he’s done, invite Mimir and Xiaomao’s retainer to the secret passageway. I’ll catch that cat and get his artifacts.’
Tian Feng grinned. He also replied, using his voice transmission technique.
‘Understood, my lord.’
.
DING
<You have removed Pangu Curse and Nian Curse from 50 people.>
<Your karma has decreased by 50,000!>
After three minutes of random touching, Xiaomao finally finished his task. He let out a sigh and turned to Yuan Shaoqing.
“It’s done, munya!”
Yuan Shaoqing looked at every surviving minister and officer. He laughed at a few of them who lost either their youth or levels after Xiaomao had touched them.
“Well done. Good job, kitty.”
DING
<You have completed the quest – Removing Curses!>
<You have gained one million Contribution EXP!>
<You have gained one million EXP!>
<Yuan Shaoqing owes you a favor. You may ask him for a favor once.>
The urgent quest was completed. And now, Xiaomao needed to bail from here. He looked at Yuan Shaoqing.
“It’s done, munya. Could you remove the barrier? We need to leave here now, or Nian will kill us all, munya!”
Tian Feng immediately stepped forward, “Please follow me. I shall bring us to our secret tunnel. Nian wouldn’t find you here.”
Xiaomao was relieved that there was an emergency exit. He opened his mouth and was about to agree.
TWITCH
His right eyebrow suddenly twitched.
