Am I A God?

Meanwhile, Zhao Yao had followed Mamba all the way to the borderlines.

“Aren’t they lavish? I never expected them to shift the entire auction to a foreign country. From the looks of it, the participants of the auction are no small fry.”

Zhao Yao continued to follow closely behind him until he ended up at the entrance to a magnificent manor. Currently, they were definitely beyond the Chinese borders, but Zhao Yao was clueless as to his specific geographic location. Regardless, Zhao Yao commenced his search immediately and found throngs of supercats hidden underground.

Upon closer inspection, he did not find any trace of Lightning or Red Packet.

“Hmph? Don’t tell me that my instincts are wrong? Maybe that obnoxious fat cat lied to me? Or maybe Mao Gang really did not take Red Packet and Lightning away.”

Memories of the entire search process flooded his mind as he tried to pinpoint any loopholes which he had previously missed.

At this moment, Matcha suddenly returned to the extradimensional belly. Shortly after, the unconscious Lightning was tossed in using the extradimensional belly gates.

Zhao Yao’s eyes sparkled with excitement as he exclaimed, “Matcha, you guys managed to find Lightning?”

Hence, Matcha began to recount their entire story, how they managed to locate the base and what happened consequently. Then, he threw his paws in Lightning’s direction and continued, “That’s the whole story. However, we just can’t seem to wake this guy up.”

Zhao Yao’s forehead furrowed slightly, knowing that the most important cat laid there unconscious. Suddenly, a glimmer of exhilaration flashed across his eyes as he shouted, “Where is Diana? Get her to enter his dream state and wake him up!”

Moments later, Diana stopped right in front of Lightning as she pressed her beautiful paw against her forehead and muttered, “This guy is already dreaming. Let me try to enter his dream.”

…

On the other hand, Lightning had just woken up in his dream state as he tried to take in his breathtaking surroundings. Everything was white, snow white and it looked extraterrestrial.

“Hmph? Wasn’t the Pallas’s cat king transferring his power to me in an attempt to turn me into the Super Pallas’s cat? Where am I?”

“Hmph!” Suddenly, a Pallas’s cat appeared in front of Lightning. It was coated in a breathtakingly beautiful white fur, unlike anything Lightning had ever seen. It sneered, “This is your inner world, you r*tard!”

Lightning was seized by a momentary shock before excitement started racing through his body, “Oh? I didn’t even know such a setting even existed! Are you the devil inside my head? Or are you the remnants of a powerful warrior? Or maybe you’re the untapped potential residing within me?”

Lightning crackled as he knocked himself on his head, “Meowhahaha! I knew it! There was no way that I could possibly be so weak! Am I finally going to be awakened?”

“Idiot!” The white Lightning bolted towards Lightning before landing a resounding slap across his face, “If you wish to be awakened, you have to first defeat me!”

Lightning struggled to find his footing before he collapsed to the ground, “That’s so troublesome. Anyway, you’re either hidden within my sub consciousness or sealed within me as a secret power or a dark force residing inside me, why don’t you just give it to me straight away? Why do we have to resort to violence?”

White Lightning was seething with anger as he retorted, “Can’t you at least give it a try? Are you intending to give up without even trying?”

“Stop your nonsense.” Lightning interrupted, “Just give me your power now, be it some formidable weapon or system or maybe the memories of my past self. I don’t care. Just give it to me!”

White Lightning was left speechless by this unreasonable individual, “Forget it, pretend as if I did not say a thing. I want you to focus your attention on one thing: to release the dormant strength within you.”

Immediately, Lightning shut his eyes together and looked as if he was deep in thought. Moments later, he opened his eyes and saw golden fur sprouting from his skin. It looked as if his body was engulfed by a burst of golden flames.

“Oh! I feel it! I feel the strength! The endless flow of strength that is emerging within me!” He threw his palm forward as a surge of golden wave charged forth, engulfing anything that was in its way.

“Is this the true power of my strength? Too strong! I am simply too strong!”

Suddenly, he was alerted to a familiar voice ringing in his head, “Stop daydreaming already! You are simply relishing in your own dreams!”

“Hmph?” With rage sweeping over him, Lightning cocked his head around and saw a black Lightning standing in a faraway corner. It was shouting at him, “Lightning, I am Diana! You are just dreaming! Faster wake up now!”

Evidently, Diana had emerged in the form of a black Lightning within his dream state.

“Tsk, another devil within my heart?” Lightning gave a mirthless laugh before springing into action. He bolted forward and stopped inches from black Lightning’s (Diana) face. With a light punch, a tremendous wave shot out in all directions, distorting the very space-time dimension which they occupied. Instantly, black Lightning was vaporized.

“Too weak!” Lightning bellowed, “Invincible! I am invincible! No one can take me down!”

“Hmph?” Lightning suddenly threw his paws over the back of his head and muttered, “Why is there a sudden throbbing headache?”

…

In reality, Diana had woken up after dying inside the dream state and reciprocated Lightning’s punch with a slap to his head.

“This idiot,” Just thinking about it caused Diana to shake with anger as she trampled over Lightning’s face with her own paws.

Zhao Yao was taken aback by this confusing behavior, “What happened? Why can’t you wake him up?”

“This idiot is simply too imaginative.” Diana was shaking in anger, “Give me some time. I will make him beg for his dream to end.”

Zhao Yao rolled his eyes as he watched Diana once again plunging into the dream state. He cocked his head towards Matcha, who stood by his side and instructed, “Alright, I will stay here and wait until Lightning wakes up. Meanwhile, do not stop over at your end. Allow Sphynx Cat to continue his investigation. Let’s see if he can catch up to their newest location.”

…

Meanwhile, the preparations for the auction had already reached the final stages.

Even in the dead of night, the entire manor was awash with lights. Faceless was pacing along the alley as he asked, “Who is the representative for Ivory?”

This was an unprecedented event for Mao Gang. The logistical demands to organize an auction beyond the Chinese borders were immense. Hence, supercat organizations from across the globe were invited to this extraordinary event. Naturally, the local groups of Ivory and Talon were also invited.

“The representative from Ivory is Purple Sabre Fairy,” Peacock replied, “He is coming alone.”

“That’s good. Purple Sabre Fairy is a high-ranking official of Ivory. This means that they have accorded the event the respect it deserves.” Faceless guffawed before continuing, “Let’s meet him then.”

Ivory was the largest apostle organization in Southern China. Even the government dared not to disregard their presence. By establishing a healthy relationship with them, Mao Gang would enjoy an elevation in their sphere of influence.

Faceless appeared at the gates to welcome Purple Sabre Fairy as they exchanged pleasantries.

At this moment, the sound of a bellowing wind rustled. The wind was as strong as a tornado as it came crashing towards Faceless’s position.

Before Faceless even responded, Centipede (personnel responsible for security) had already let out a deafening scream.

In a split second, both Purple Sabre Fairy and the hiding Peacock had sprung into action.

Purple plasmas flew across the sky, tearing apart the air particles in its way as it clashed against the tornado.

At the same time, three columns of water shot out of Peacock as it sliced across the tornado.

The three formidable forces clashed simultaneously, producing a deafening blast which echoed in their ears. With the explosion at the epicenter, the shockwaves spread radially, causing others to run for cover as they threw their hands over their ears.

A shadow emerged from the center of the tornado and stood calmly on the grass patch in front of the manor. He gave a shrug of his shoulders as his eyes met Purple Sabre Fairy and Peacock, “Hey, calm down. I was just trying to say hi.”

With that, he threw a letter in the air.

With a gust of wind, the letter landed in Faceless’s hand.

Faceless took a look at it as his expression turned into a scowl, “You are from Talon?”

The man responsible for the tornado sniggered, “You can call me Wind Devil.”

Even though Faceless was furious with his brash actions, he dared not say anything offensive against a representative of Talon, the strongest apostle group of Northen China. He could only laugh in response.

Following that, more participants started making their way in. The customers included apostles, businessmen, politicians and even some mysterious figures. It was bustling with noise.
