    Zhao Yao narrowed his eyes and emitted crimson rays that immobilised Sphynx. Then he waved in Ares’ direction and said, “Lead me to Lucifer.”


    Ares sighed in relief after seeing Sphynx frozen. The Deflective Field was activated. The steel columns fell from its body. Ares hurriedly exited the cat dwelling.


    Even after leaving, Ares so terrified that his fur couldn’t stop falling.


    “Close shave, almost lost my virginity.” Ares quickly licked his fur in order to calm down.


    Zhao Yao frowned, “You can run away once but you cannot avoid it forever. Your fighting prowess is way below Sphynx’s. It is a matter of time before you sumb to him.”


    Ares trembled, crying, “What should I do?”


    “If resistance is futile, then enjoy it. If you don’t try, how do you know you don’t like it?”


    Ares red at Zhao Yao, then muttered, “Why don’t you try it yourself,” under his breath.


    Zhao Yao followed Ares as they left the Extradimensional belly to find a small wooden house on Cat Ind. As they neared, they heard screams of pain that seemed toe from a cat.


    The small wooden houses had been rebuilt after Zhao Yao conquered Cat Ind. They were given to cats as dwellings and were filled with many cats. Supercats who could not get used to Extradimensional belly often chose one of the small wooden houses on Cat Ind as their home.


    Zhao Yao’s eyes focused. “This is... Lucifer’s voice?”


    Ares sighed, “Yes, Lucifer has unknowingly changed a lot. Lucifer, Gaia, Fūjin, Rakshasa and I grew up together, but now we have gone off on our own different paths.”


    Zhao Yao rolled his eyes and walked towards a small wooden house. He mmed the door open.


    Lucifer’s entire body was bound and hung from the ceiling. On the side, Rakshasashed Lucifer continuously with a whip. With everysh, he cried out in pain. Though it sounded like screams of pain, Lucifer’s face showed deep pleasure.”


    “Ah,sh me harder!”


    “Don’t stop! Even harder!”


    Fūjin held a handphone in its mouth, very focused on shooting the scene. While filming, Fūjin shouted, “Good, that’s good. Lucifer, you can’t only show pleasure, add some suffering. Rakshasa, use more force. Theshes seem very soft.”


    Zhao Yao frowned and burying his face in his palms. Taken aback, he hollered furiously, “What are you all doing!?”


    Rakshasa jumped with fright. The whip in her mouth fell to the ground and she lowered her head in embarrassment, saying, “It is not me! I am not the one who wanted this. This is Lucifer and Fūjin’s idea of making money.”


    The handphone in Fūjin’s mouth also fell on the ground and Fūjin said frightened, “Don’t me me. Diana wanted to see a tomcatsh another tomcat. Afterpleting the shoot, Diana will give us money. I do not know anything.”


    Zhao Yao rolled his eyes and said, “Get lost.”


    The two cats, like students caught in the arcade by the form teacher, ran away in fear.


    Only Lucifer was left, hanging in mid-air, shouting, “Don’t stop! Continue tosh me!”


    Zhao Yao shook his head, extended his hand and used the Deflective Field to unbind Lucifer. Pushing Lucifer in front of him, he said, “Let’s go. I need your help with something.”


    Ignoring Lucifer’s protests, he dragged him all the way back into Extradimensional belly, to the same location he had entered it.


    Whaty before them was a Japanese hospital. Their reason foring here, ording to Zhao Yao, was to locate Kaede Hattori’s younger brother, Kappei Hattori. He was receiving treatment after his family jewels exploded.


    Above Kaede Hattori’s head, the fire of the burning exmation mark was burning stronger and brighter. Zhao Yao felt tempted.


    No matter how many times he disguised himself as Mr. Yamada to ask for tasks, Kaede Hattori had no intention of seeking his help. Instead, he reminded Zhao Yao to find Diao Bao.


    ording to Zhao Yao’s analysis, he could only gain more of Kaede Hattori’s trust by finding the criminal Diao Bao. Then, and only then, would he be able to receive tasks from the burning exmation mark.


    Zhao Yao spent the next few days vigorously investigating Diao Bao’s trail in vain. Kappei Hattori’s foes, opponents, and coborators all had solid alibis. Even when Zhao Yao used a superpower to interrogate them, the truth remained the same. They did not do the act.


    After a series of futile investigations, Zhao Yao was down to hisst resort: asking Kappei Hattori whether he knew who had attacked him.


    However, Kappei Hattori had been in aa ever since his serious injury. Zhao Yao could not wait for him to awaken. As he was an apostle, he could get Lucifer to lend him his powers so he could awaken Kappei Hattori. Then he could ask him.


    They arrived at the hospital. Under the cover of the power of illusion, they easily sneaked into Kappei Hattori’s ward. Zhao Yao patted Lucifer’s head and said, “Lucifer, lend your regeneration power to this man.”


    Lucifer frowned, jumped onto the bed and pressed his paw onto Kappei Hattori’s head. After some time, Lucifer furrowed his brows, puzzled, “I am unable to lend my power over to him.”


    “Oh, I almost forgot about this.” Zhao Yao’s eyes brightened. If the loyalty of his contracted supercats reached one hundred points, they couldn’t lend their power to other apostles.


    Zhao Yao pped Lucifer’s face and said, “Quick, lend him your power.”


    Lucifer’s loyalty increased by one point.


    After being pped, Lucifer purred in pleasure and said, “I’m still unable to lend my power.”


    “Argh!” Zhao Yao pped Lucifer’s face twice and shouted, “D*mn cat, lend your power to him right now!”


    Lucifer’s loyalty increased by one point.


    Lucifer’s loyalty increased by one point.


    Lucifer’s loyalty increased by one point.


    Every time Zhao Yao pped him, Lucifer’s loyalty remained at a hundred points. It seemed like it could not be lowered.


    Looking at Lucifer lyingfortably on the ground humming and asionally quivering, Zhao Yao shook his head and said, “What kind of cats do I have under me? This unit is too hard to lead.”


    Zhao Yao stroked his chin, thinking of solutions to lower Lucifer’s loyalty.


    Suddenly, his eyes brightened. He activated his powers of illusion, blocked Lucifer’s touch and transformed it into a different feeling.


    Lucifer had closed his eyes and was lyingfortably on the bed. He immediately opened his eyes wide and said astonished, “What happened? What is this feeling?”


    “Hehehehe... Lucifer, you are so young, perhaps you have not experienced this before?” Zhao Yaoughed heartily. “Your whole body feels uneasy and you would like to let it out. You’ve used all your strength in vain. You seek help, yet are unable to find any...”


    “This is called constipation.”
