Older Sister!!!

"I'll go myself. You stay here!"

Seeing the man with glasses about to leave, Long Jie dropped those words and followed after him. Dressed in black, he was hard to spot in the night.

Shui Bing'er froze for a moment. She had stayed here with him for three hours, and now he was telling her he was going to act alone?

"Oh, you really are something! Hmph!"

After cursing under her breath, Shui Bing'er did not obediently heed his words. Instead, she quietly followed after him.

Up ahead, Long Jie followed the man with glasses through turn after turn until they finally arrived in an alley. The alley was steeped in shadow, and Long Jie seized the chance to rush in front of him.

"Stop! Hand over Catwoman, or don't blame me for showing no mercy!" A pair of claws appeared out of thin air in his hands. The Gale Wolf's claws gleamed brilliantly under the moonlight.

At the sight of this, Catwoman grew extremely excited. In a voice hoarse from crying, she said, "One of my people, save me! Save me!"

Clearly, she had mistaken Long Jie for a catman.

"Oh? Someone from the catman tribe?" The man with glasses pushed up his glasses and stared coldly at Long Jie, baring his teeth in a grin. "Since you're a catman, you can be my toy too!"

Long Jie frowned. "Why? We're both people, so why do you look down on catmen?"

"Look down on them?" The man with glasses paused, then burst out laughing. "I don't look down on catwomen. They're all toys I like. I love them too much to look down on them! Hahaha!"

Damn it, what disgusting behavior!

Long Jie frowned and no longer wanted to say another word to him. Wind stirred beneath his feet as he charged at the man with glasses in an instant, the claws in his hand flashing coldly as they shot straight for his face.

"Hmph! A mere catman thinks he can kill me? I'm a dignified Soul Elder!" The man with glasses roared furiously. Three soul rings—white, yellow, yellow—instantly appeared behind him.

A long tongue shot from his mouth and lashed toward Long Jie!

"Hmph! Overestimating yourself!" With a single slash of his claw, Long Jie severed the man with glasses' tongue as easily as cutting tofu.

"Ahhh..." The tongue was connected to the heart, and the agonizing pain made the man with glasses scream. But he did not scream for long before he fell silent. The pain overwhelmed his consciousness, and he collapsed unconscious onto the ground.

"What an idiot. Of all things to cultivate, you chose your tongue. It's disgusting, has no defense at all, and all it has is a little paralysis?" Looking at the bespectacled man on the ground, Long Jie seriously mocked him before turning to Catwoman beside him.

Catwoman seemed to have caught the scent of Gale Wolf bloodline on him. Though it differed from her Catwoman bloodline, he was still not an ordinary human.

This discovery delighted her, and she cautiously moved closer to Long Jie.

"Thank you for saving me, big brother. Let's kill him!" Catwoman looked at the man with glasses, murder in her eyes.

Seeing this, Long Jie frowned and lightly rapped Catwoman on the head. In a warning tone, he said, "Don't harbor killing intent. Although he coveted you, he didn't do anything evil to you, and he wasn't the one who kidnapped you. There's no need to hate him!"

After being tapped, Catwoman said nothing and fell silent, though her eyes remained filled with deep hatred.

She hated those who captured her, hated those who bought her, and hated all humans.

Long Jie sensed that hatred as well. He could only sigh helplessly. This was a conflict between humans and catmen. He could not stop it; he did not have that ability.

He only stepped in when he saw something happen. He did not have the power to do anything more.

Looking at Catwoman, Long Jie slowly said, "Where is your home? I'll take you back!"

"Home! Going home! Big brother will take me home!" Catwoman said excitedly. She had been captured for several days. She missed her father and mother; she wanted to go home.

Long Jie's heart softened at her words, and he nodded. "All right. Where is your home?"

"My home is... in a small village. It's very beautiful, full of peach blossoms!" Catwoman described it excitedly, but Long Jie was troubled as soon as he heard it. Where was that? He could not tell at all.

"Does it have a name or something?"

At that, Catwoman fell silent for a while. After thinking for a long time, she finally said a name. "Sea God Village!"

Sea God Village? Long Jie's gaze froze. Where was Sea God Village? What did it have to do with Sea God Island? And what did it have to do with the Sea God?

In an instant, countless thoughts ran through his mind. But no matter which possibility it was, he could not verify it now. Because he could not go to Sea God Island!

Helpless, Long Jie could only look at Catwoman and say, "Big brother doesn't know where your home is, so it seems I can't take you back. How about you stay with big brother for a while first?"

At that, Catwoman looked warily at Long Jie. She carefully inspected his ears and claws, and only relaxed slightly after confirming they were not fake. Then she said,

"Okay, then Meng Meng will follow big brother!"

"So your name is Meng Meng. That's a lovely name!"

"Mhm, it's the name Mother gave me. My full name is Cat Meng!"

Meng Meng? Cat Meng? Long Jie was stunned. Why did those names sound a little familiar?

"Long Jie, why were you so fast? I couldn't keep up at all!" At that moment, Shui Bing'er finally caught up. She was not skilled in speed to begin with, so naturally she had struggled to keep up with Long Jie.

When Meng Meng saw Shui Bing'er in human form, she immediately became alert. She stared coldly at Shui Bing'er, every hair on her body standing on end!

Alert state!

"Meng Meng, don't be nervous. She's one of us!" Seeing her like this, Long Jie hurriedly soothed her.

He stroked Meng Meng's head, smoothing down her raised fur bit by bit. Only then did little Meng Meng completely lower her guard.

But Long Jie's actions made Shui Bing'er unhappy. What are you doing? I didn't scare her. Why are you comforting her?

And you're even stroking her head. You've never stroked mine...

Feeling somewhat dissatisfied, Shui Bing'er said, "Long Jie, how are you planning to arrange for her now? Let me make this clear first: there can't be a third person in my room!"

Long Jie froze at her words. That was indeed a problem. Now that Catwoman Meng Meng had been rescued, how should he settle her?

Hmm... that was a question worth thinking about.

Just then, a group of people suddenly approached from the distance, frightening them into quickly hiding.

"Be careful, everyone. This big cat isn't like a little cat. She's very valuable!" The group carried a large cage. The leader was grinning happily as he lifted the black cloth covering the cage and admired the beauty inside. He said,

"This big cat has such a great figure, tsk tsk tsk... She'll surely fetch a good price!"

Inside the cage was a woman covered in wounds, filthy from head to toe, yet her voluptuous figure was still plainly visible. A pair of ears stood atop her head, and a tail extended from behind her, revealing her identity.

An adult Catwoman!!

Unlike little Catwoman, this Catwoman had fully matured and become a "fine commodity" in the hands of hunters!

She was also a slave and toy coveted by countless nobles.

The moment Meng Meng saw this Catwoman, her eyes widened. She cried out anxiously, "Older Sister!!!"
