At this moment, Chen Zhou's pupils constricted, and the smile on his lips froze.

From the carriage that Zhao Zhiming opened, he saw a familiar figure...

She was a girl about his age, with a pretty face and a somewhat frail body.

She was completely naked, her body covered in wounds, some of which were still bleeding.

The girl’s beautiful peach blossom eyes had long since lost their luster and were staring blankly at the sky.

Unfortunately, her view was completely obstructed by the roof of the carriage, and she could no longer see the sky.

Just yesterday, the girl had been in Han’s house, warning Chen Zhou to be careful of Zhao Jing.

Chen Zhou had also warned her to take something valuable and run away immediately.

But unfortunately, the girl had not escaped after all. Or rather, she had escaped from the Han Mansion but could not escape this world.

The suffering people in this world are like weeds. A gust of wind is enough to uproot them.

Chen Zhou took a deep breath, gently closed the girl’s eyes, then removed his outer gown and covered her naked body with it.

The sound of people running away continued to echo in his ears, and Chen Zhou became increasingly upset.

......

"What a bunch of cowards! They’re all so afraid of death!"

Seeing everyone fleeing, Zhao Zhiming cursed and ran even faster. His mind was still clear— in this situation, he just needed to run faster than everyone else!

With his strength at the fifth level of the second realm, no one here could outrun him!

His chances of survival were higher than anyone else's!

Sssss!!!

However, just as he thought this, a sharp, piercing sound suddenly rang out behind him. It approached quickly, like the cries of thousands of birds in his ears!

Zhao Zhiming felt his scalp tingle, because this sound came from the electricity used by Chen Zhou in his martial arts!

The sound was so distinctive, so unique!

This bastard abandoned the others and chased after him?!

Damn it, I’m going to die!!!

A strong sense of death filled Zhao Zhiming’s body. At that moment, he saw the roof of the carriage in front of him suddenly open, and two cat demons, one large and one small, flew into the sky!

The male cat demon’s muscles bulged, and his sturdy body was like a tank. He charged straight toward the sinking boat, crushing all the debris in his path. Each step he took made the ground tremble slightly!

The female cat demon was light as willow catkins and as fast as thunder, leaving a trail of afterimages. In the blink of an eye, she appeared beside the sinking boat!

"The aura is at the fifth level of the second realm! But the physique is incredibly strong!"

"His lightning skills are also abnormal! Even in the third realm, we might not be able to win in a one-on-one fight!"

"If we work together, we can try!"

The man and woman worked together seamlessly. While in the carriage, this cat demon couple quickly analyzed the combat power of the sinking boat and already formulated a battle plan!

They worked together very skillfully—the male cat attacked from the front while the female cat hid on the flanks, waiting for the sinking boat to show a flaw and seizing the opportunity to strike!

With this exquisite coordination, they had even teamed up to kill a warrior at the peak of the third realm!

Chen Zhou, originally chasing after Zhao Zhiming, frowned. He hadn’t expected that when everyone else was running, only these two cat demons were still faithfully carrying out their mission.

What benefits had Zhao Shuanghe promised them, or are all monsters just this stubborn?

When it comes to keeping promises, monsters are better than humans!

However, the appearance of these two cat demons… seems to be something even more interesting.

"Master Lin, bring the good things in your hands!"

Chen Zhou stopped his pursuit and shouted loudly.

"Hey, you two cat-faced monsters!"

Immediately, Lin Yujing’s cold voice echoed from not far away: "Why don’t you take a look at what’s in my hand?"

The two cat demons, mid-sprint, suddenly froze. Their bodies stiffened as they turned their heads, an ugly expression appearing on the cat’s face.

A beautiful young woman stood about a hundred meters away, and in her hand… was their daughter.

The small body of the little cat demon dangled from Lin Yujing’s hands as if it were a cat doll.

"Red!"

The female cat demon trembled and shouted, while the male cat demon ground his teeth in fury.

In fact, they had smelled their daughter’s scent nearby just a moment ago, but to keep her out of this battle, they had deliberately ignored it.

After all, any careless movement at this moment would easily alert the enemy and give them an opportunity to exploit it.

But unexpectedly... the very thing the cat demon couple had feared happened!

The enemy’s allies had caught Honghong first!

Seeing the expressions of worry and fear on the faces of the two cat demons, Chen Zhou knew his plan was working. He continued:

"Don’t act rashly, Mrs. Cat. You wouldn’t want to see anything happen to your daughter, would you?"

The appearance of this cat demon couple intrigued Chen Zhou. The male cat demon was as strong as a tiger walking upright, exuding a powerful aura.

As for the female cat demon, she was slender—so slender, in fact, that even Victoria’s Secret models would be jealous.

Is this the legendary racial superiority?

If she were released into the world, many would surely covet this female cat demon's body. After all, the world is full of perverts.

But the most striking feature was the blood covering the two cat demons, some even splattered with minced meat and internal organs.

It seemed the two cats had been enjoying a hearty meal in the carriage.

"Let me tell you, Master Lin, family reunions are such a heartwarming sight. Why make it so they can’t enjoy it?" Shen Zhou’s voice turned colder. "Wake up that little cat."

"Okay!" Lin Yujing nodded, and with a flash of electric arc in her hand, Honghong, who had been sleeping, jolted awake.

Who am I? Where am I? What am I doing?

As Honghong awoke, fragmented memories returned. She quickly remembered the scent she’d followed into the courtyard, only to encounter a boy who wanted to eat her—until she was knocked unconscious...

As her vision cleared, Honghong saw her anxious parents in the distance. It then struck her—she was being held by the back of her neck...

Realizing the situation, her face twisted in fury, her claws sprang from her pads, and she turned to viciously grab Lin Yujing!

"You still want to catch me?" Lin Yujing frowned, unbothered by the little cat’s defiance. She increased the intensity of the purple arc in her palm.

"Bah!"

Honghong was jolted by the electric shock, twitching violently as she cried out, "Meow! Meow! Meow!"

"Well done. You still dare to resist. This little cat is really in need of affection," Chen Zhou said coldly, without an ounce of mercy on his face.

Electric shocks were indeed a fitting punishment. One zap, and it was enough to make her suffer.
