Chapter 272: 272


    ‘This thing is such a mixed species that one has to doubt if people can tell it’s supposed to be a cat.’ Han Fei epted the mission but he couldn’t tell who was supposed to be the pet here. The pet shop owner was strong enough to entrap a Medium Lingering Spirit so it had to be stronger than that. Weep wouldn’t be able to handle it alone. To ensure that there was no ident, Han Fei summoned all of his neighbours from inside the urn. If they couldn’t win with strength, then they would win with numbers. If the neighbours were not enough, Han Fei still had other reinforcements.


    The shrill cries engulfed the pet store. Lee Zai stretched to unleash his brother, Lee Huo. After their adventure at Cattle Alley, Han Fei’s neighbours all experienced a categorical improvement. “Meat! I need more meat!” Glowing with red eyes, Lee Huo’s skin was covered in blood. He was a literal manifestation of misfortune and tragedy. The fists that were bigger than an adult smashed heavily. He charged at the cat-faced monster like the Hulk. Lee Huo had no feeling of fear.


    Before this, the tenants at Happiness Neighbourhood stayed in their own rooms and had nomunication, but with Han Fei’s help, the former strangers had started to ept each other, and knew how to work in a team. That was extremely rare in the cryptic world. Lee Huo was the tank, while Weep used his cries to interrupt the enemy to limit their movements. Drake guarded beside Han Fei. He gathered power in his hands. He looked for an opportunity to grapple the enemy so that Han Fei could deliver the final cut. The neighbours worked perfectly together but they had underestimated the terror of the monster.


    Each of the creature’s fur was bristling with curses. Its soul and heart were pieced together, in a way, it was simr to Xu Qin. The difference was Xu Qin was made from curses, while this monster was made from souls and flesh of humans and animals. Weep’s despair mainly worked on spirits which this monster was not, instead it operated on an intense hatred targeted at humans. If this monster was allowed a free reign, it would eventually seek breakthrough to be a Pure Hatred.


    The cat-faced monster and Lee Huo mmed into each other. The threads on the monster’s body unraveled. Pieces of animal carcasses fell out, and the animals’ souls were still crying inside the carcasses. Lee Huo didn’t fare much better. The cat-faced monster had left arge gash that tore through his chest. Through the wound, one could even see Lee Zai who was slumbering inside Lee Huo. Both the monster and Lee Huo were injured but while Lee Huo’s wounds worsened, the injury on the monster was rapidly recovering. In terms of self-healing, Lee Huo was slower than the creature.


    This cat-faced monster was immune to emotional and psychological attack, its body was indestructible, its speed and strength overwhelmed everyone present and it could heal rapidly. Other than ack of intelligence, this creature had no weakness. “Drake, go and help them!” Han Fei retreated once more, but he kept his eyes on the monster’s heart. The wounds there did not heal, there were minor cuts. ‘The monster is the owner of this ce, it has the local advantage. We need to finish this battle as soon as possible.’


    As the ck anaconda crawled into the ghost tattoo, Han Fei’s body temperature plummeted. Resisting the inhuman pain, Han Fei gained an increase in stamina and defense. Yin energy coated his body and Han Fei with masterful cold steel mastery gripped the hilt of the de. He put down the urn and focused on the 3 neighbours who surrounded the cat-faced monster.


    Slowing his breath, Han Fei adjusted his fingers that held the de. As the monster was rammed into the wall by Lee Huo and lost its bnce, Han Fei darted out. Han Fei’s narrowed pupils targeted the creature’s heart. Han Fei slipped through the three Lingering Spirits and delivered a deep cut!


    “Rest in peace!” The de materialized with a glow. Like a shooting star, it cut through the monster’s chest. Blood sttered as the wound on the chest was torn open. The souls trapped inside its body immediately escaped.


    ‘It’s still alive?’ This opportunity did note easy to Han Fei, but probably because the monster rarely killed, so Rest in Peace was unable to deliver a fatal blow. Holding its open chest, the cat-faced monster slowed down. As the wounds increased on its body and Han Fei thought victory was theirs, the monster’s lips suddenly broke into a humanlike smile. It took a nce at Han Fei. It was a strange feeling like you woke up to your pet tiger smiling at you in the middle of the night. The mouth covered in fur slowly opened to recite another strange direction. “If you have the habit of ying with pets, be cautious of hygiene. You have to bathe your pets often, and you yourself have to constantly wash your hands, take showers and change clothes!”


    Then its hands grabbed at the wound around the chest and pulled with full might!


    The horrid sound of skin tearing entered Han Fei’s ears. After the cat-faced monster shed the wounded skin, there was another brand new body underneath. The redness on its fur was more brilliant, its fangs and ws sharper than before!


    ‘The wounds have healed?’ Han Fei couldn’t believe his eyes. Other than the wounds left by Rest in Peace, the other wounds had all disappeared like the monster had been rebirthed. ‘Each shedding of its skin will grant it new life?’ Han Fei shot a nce at the vet. Clearly the man knew about this but he didn’t tell Han Fei. “What kind of monster have you created here?” Currently the vet was cowering at the corner. It appeared like he had been scared witness. After tearing off the skin, the hatred inside the cat-faced monster intensified. The vet had everything to do with its current status. One couldn’t help but wonder what kind of horrid torture and experimentations had been done on it to be a monster like this.


    The reborn monster was so fast that Lee Huo and Drake couldn’t catch up with it. Their bodies started to hurt and injure. Of the 3 neighbours, only Weep wasn’t affected. The often-ignored boy was slowly narrowing down his despair and cries. While no one was paying him any attention, he was slowly creating a cage out of despair. Lee Huo and Drake were fighting as best as they could. Weep was at a critical point as well. None of the neighbours could afford to be distracted and it was this moment that the vet at the corner started to move. He silenced his presence and used the fragmented pig’s mask to cover his face.


    The vet had a wonderful n. While everyone was caught in the battle, he would sneak away. To achieve that goal, he only gave partial info to Han Fei about the cat-faced monster. As he approached the door, malice crossed the vet’s eyes. He stole a look back. He saw Han Fei clutch his fingers around the butcher’s knife.


    ‘Have fun with my creation. It won’t die no matter how many times you kill it.’ The vet cursed Han Fei. He saw Han Fei raise the butcher’s knife that struck fear in his heart but instead of charging at the cat-faced monster, the man charged at him!


    ‘What?’ The vet’s glee was severed along with his arm. When he felt the pain that gripped his soul, his face wrenched with disbelief. Even though the cat-faced monster was bearing down on him, Han Fei decided to go after the vet first.


    “Have, have you lost your mind?!” Han Fei leaped to close the door. The weakened vet had to edge back to the room to avoid Han Fei. At that moment, Drake, who should be fighting the cat-faced monster, suddenly reached towards the vet’s face. The already fragile mask shattered. The vet’s presence exploded. He immediately sensed the hostility on him. Sensing his presence, the cat-faced monster stopped attacking the others. Its red eyes locked onto the vet. Before the vet could recover, both Drake and Han Fei joined to attack him again. They forced him to a corner and then quickly leaped back as the cat-faced monster charged at the vet.


    The human and pet met again. Weep had sessfully finished thest step of weaving the cage. The threads braided from despair trapped the vet and the cat-faced monster inside them. The vet wanted to use Han Fei to buy time for him to escape while Han Fei used the vet as bait to lead the monster into the cage of despair. “Do you think I’ve forgotten about what you did to Xu Qin at the House of the Butcher?” Han Fei told the vet who was trapped inside the cage with his creation. “I originally nned to give you a chance to redeem yourself, but you’ve shown that you do not deserve a second chance.”


    The cat-faced monster growled angrily. Han Fei opened Weep’s urn again and many eyes blinked open inside the pet store. After getting Han Fei’s present, Ying Yue agreed to his invitation this time and followed him out of Happiness Neighbourhood.
