Chapter 2249 - Embodiment of Arrogance

"Sis Le, come give me a hand."

Lin Lele had been sleeping soundly within the cavern. Dissatisfied at being woken up by Tianming, she complained, "You again! Why do you keep fwaking me? You're heartless!"

"Sis, pronunciation! It's waking! Waking!"

"Yeah, fweaaaking, sure...."

Tianming gave up."So? Tell me what the hell you need," she said, still woozy.𝚒𝚗𝚗r𝚎ad.co𝚖

"Here you go. Your bedmate." Tianming handed the sleeping cat to her.

"What a cute cat! What’d it do? Something wrong with it?"

"Ah, not really. I just want to see if you can catch up to it with your full power," Tianming said. He wasn't one to mess around, and he wouldn't risk letting Meow Meow lure Lin Jianxing away if there was a chance it could be caught. Since he had no idea about the full capabilities of an astral god, he had to give it a try.

"Why would I chase it? It's far too small! I wouldn't be anywhere near full even if I ate it," she complained.

"Well, it did something wrong."

"What’d it do?"

"It called you a fat pig behind your back. What can I even say to that? You're absolutely gorgeous," Tianming said, shaking his head.

"What! In! The!" Her eyes widened with rage.

"Meow!" The cat snapped awake after detecting a murderous aura. It turned around, its hair fully raised, and saw a gigantic face in the darkness filled with so much rage that it threatened to swallow it whole.

"A meownster!" Meow Meow shrieked before it zipped away from Tianming's arms like a lightning bolt."Shameless cat, you can't escape! I’ll dissect you and grind your bones to ash!" Lin Lele roared as she gave chase, causing the cavern to freeze in an instant.

"How fast!" Tianming only felt a gust of wind before the cat and Lin Lele both vanished before his eyes. The surroundings wildly shook as Lin Lele smashed the obstacles in front of her to smithereens like a stampeding beast.

"Fuck! Fuck!" Chaos lightning coursed through Meow Meow's fur, increasing its speed more and more and slowing down Lin Lele with the afterburn.

"Yin Chen, keep me informed on how it's going," Tianming said, smiling with his arms crossed.

"Cat Bro... is way... ahead ahead!" Yin Chen excitedly said.

"Perfect!" That was what Tianming wanted to see.

After quite a chase, Lin Lele finally stopped, panting heavily from exhaustion. Meow Meow saw the chance and immediately escaped into Tianming's lifebound space, slumping softly and skidding across the ground for half a kilometer, its fur leaving trails of sparks, before falling asleep.

"Get... get it back out!" Lin Lele barked.

"It's enough, Sis Le," Tianming consoled in a hurry. "Let's not split hairs with a stupid little animal, alright?"

"No way!" She glared at him and pulled his ear. "Tell me! You're messing with me, right? Are you trying to see if I can catch up to it? What’re you up to now?!"

Tianming figured that his ability to somehow monitor his surroundings was something the audience had already picked up on. There was no way for him to keep that hidden, so he wouldn’t bother keeping it from his ally either. "I am indeed up to something. However, I want to confirm something with you first: would you be able to catch up to Meow Meow if you give it your all?"

"I didn't use my order to suppress it earlier. If I had, maybe there'd be a chance. However, the range of my order is rather limited, so it's quite unlikely for me to catch up."

"Alright, got it. So the key is to maintain a substantial initial distance. Once the gap widens, you'll have even less of a chance of catching up."

"That's right."

"Do you think Lin Jianxing can keep up?"

"Him? This lifebound beast is the fastest myriadstar beast I've seen. Lin Jianxing's stronger than me, but not by much. I'm guessing he'd have a hard time as well, especially if you make sure the initial distance is wide enough. That little critter is just like the Central Shuntian Clan's albusbeasts. It's way too agile."

"Then it'll work." Tianming nodded and told Lin Lele about his plan without holding anything back. "They're nearby right now, but they're leaving because they can't find me. The Oldgod Domain is rather large. If I let them leave now, it'll be quite a long time before I can find them again."

"Wow, that's quite a move to make." Lin Lele was no longer surprised that he could find those green skeletons.

"He was already rather antagonistic toward me anyway."

"That's true. I heard that he tried to court your wife at the sixth level of the Caeli Vault. If I were you, I'd crush his balls too!"

"Haha! Alright, I'll be making my move, then." He was about to leave.

"Wait, Brother Feng. It's still a little risky for Meow Meow. Why don't I follow you guys and wait for Meow Meow nearby? Have it run in my direction. If it’s fast enough, I won't have to interfere. But if it's almost going to be caught, I can protect it," she said, reassuringly patting her chest.

Tianming was quite touched by the gesture, but he still seemed worried. "Sis Le, if that really comes to pass, won't you be exposed to danger?"

"What are you thinking about? I'm not you. He doesn't hate me that much, and I'm also a disciple of the Lin Clan. Few disciples of the same clan fight each other during this event, and those incidents are even rarer in ours. The seniors tell us to treasure our own kind. If we actively go against our own people on a stage like this, the entire clan will be against us! Not to mention, the moment you show up near Lin Linglin, Lin Jianxing will immediately turn back. If you can't finish things quickly, you'll be the one in danger." She didn't seem the least bit worried. Lin Jianxing wouldn't dare to touch her, and anyway, she wasn't that weak.

"Alright. Thanks, Sis Le. You're such a great comrade!" At least there was a safety net for Meow Meow. While it wasn't likely that it would be needed, it was still reassuring to have.

"The biggest problem with the plan is that you're only a tenth-level stellaminor. How will you be able to take Lin Linglin down quickly enough? She's Lin Lingxiao's sister, and her father’s a council member! She has six-six talent, which is better than mine or Lin Jianxing's! If she wasn't thirty years younger than me, I wouldn't be her match." There was no way for Lin Lele to know that Tianming was only at the fourth level.

"Don't worry. It'll be all too easy."

"You're the embodiment of arrogance!" She rolled her eyes.
