Li Qi patted his shoulder and said with satisfaction,

"Master, I heard from my fellow disciple that you once were a formidable figure who had 'leaped over the Dragon Gate'. So why did you still grow old?" Zhu Shanying asked, puzzled.

Li Qi laughed and said lightly, "The 'dragon' I raised was killed by someone, so my consciousness could not soak into the body anymore. Naturally, I could no longer maintain the 'Breakthrough' state and constantly adjust my body, so aging became inevitable."

Zhu Shanying nodded, seemingly understanding but not quite.

...

By the time Xue Jing returned to his residential area, it was already past midnight.

He touched the wound on his body and found the healing speed was so fast it was almost absurd; the skin that had been torn open was already growing a thin layer of flesh.

At this rate, he estimated it would heal in two or three days.

He greeted the security guard, entered the neighborhood, and got home.

When he opened the door, he did not see Miao Miao coming to greet him.

He closed the door, searched all around the house, and wondered,

"Not here again?"

Lately, Miao Miao was too mysterious, disappearing from time to time. Xue Jing had no clue what it could be doing.

After some thought, Xue Jing's gaze swept through the entire house, imprinting everything firmly in his eyes before he closed them.

[Meditative Visualization].

This skill, which could enhance the intensity of his consciousness, gave him an incredibly terrifying ability to control his thoughts and imagination.

Especially since it had reached Level 4 tonight.

He visualized every trace in the house in his mind; every detail was depicted vividly.

The cat hair on the sofa, the slightly worn soft plastic buttons on the TV remote, the faint scratch marks on the chair legs...

He used his imagination to work backward through all the traces.

Inside the house visualized in Xue Jing's mind, a black cat with white 'gloves' appeared.

It moved around the house, stretching, watching TV, clawing at the chair, rummaging through the fridge, playing with the computer, bouncing on the bed...

The actions of the black cat corresponded to every slight trace inside the house.

At last, the black cat, which was idly playing with its tail on the sofa, seemed to have heard something and turned its head to look towards the balcony.

Soon after, it stood up, walked with elegant cat steps to the balcony door, and struggled to push open the glass sliding door with its paw, walking out.

In reality, Xue Jing also closed his eyes and followed the black cat in his mind, stepping out onto the balcony.

The black cat jumped onto the railing of the balcony—Xue Jing opened his eyes.

The impeccable vision brought by Aiming allowed him to inspect the railing for a while, replaceing two almost imperceptible paw prints of Miao Miao on the black paint.

Based on the shape of the paw prints, he visualized Miao Miao's jumping posture, direction, and arc.

He leaned his upper body over the railing in a posture that would be extremely dangerous for the average person and looked straight down below the balcony.

He could barely make out an air-conditioning unit hanging there.

The unit, long-unwashed and covered in dust, had many cat paw prints imprinted on it.

Xue Jing thought for a moment, grabbed the railing with both hands, flipped over with a jump, and swung over with agility like a monkey, landing silently on top of the air-conditioning unit.

Then he continued to visualize the traces of Miao Miao's actions...

...

In a dark alley not far from Xue Jing's residential area.

Ning Fengwan squatted on a crumbling brick wall, watching two figures, one larger and one smaller, both clad in black trench coats, black sunglasses, and masks, wrapped up tightly, and sighed humanely.

"I've said, try not to come replace me of late."

"And you two, are you trying to make sure nobody misses how suspicious you look? What's with this get-up?"

Ning Fengwan commented.

The smaller of the two weakly raised her hand, speaking in a soft, girlish voice, "I was against dressing this way, like some stalker, but the Priest..."

The taller silhouette glanced at her, immediately silencing her, preventing her from speaking further.

Turning her cat-like head, Ning Fengwan frowned at the taller figure and said:

"Mr. An, didn't you take off for Inner Ring City already? What brings you back here now?"

Previously, when she was chatting on the 'Inside World Forum,' Yun Qin had told her that the members of the Dragon Cult had mostly scattered, and Mr. An was among the first to leave.

Mr. An's voice was deep as he said:

"Sect Hierarch, I didn't run away; I went to the headquarters."

Beside him, Yun Qin muttered softly, "Going to the headquarters is also running away..."

Ning Fengwan, surprised, said, "Huh? We have a headquarters?"

Her succession as the Sect Hierarch came quite abruptly, and there were many things the old Sect Hierarch had not mentioned to her. It was the first time she had heard of this.

Mr. An said, with an utterly unvarying tone, "Our Dragon Cult is a sect that serves the 'Infinity Dragon' Ananda Tashasha, who has a thousand heads. Therefore, our Dragon Cult..."

"Has a thousand branches."

Ning Fengwan was astonished and said, "A thousand?"

Mr. An nodded and said, "Indeed, a thousand. It's normal for you not to know, Sect Hierarch. The branches are spread all over the world, and the connections between them are not close. We haven't been in contact with other branches for over thirty years now. The old Sect Hierarch probably forgot this as well."

Ning Fengwan frowned and asked, "Since the connections are not close, why bring this up to me now?"

Mr. An removed his sunglasses, revealing a pair of red vertical pupils.

Ning Fengwan's pupils contracted slightly.

Mr. An's voice gradually became more fervent, "Because Ananda Tashasha himself has responded to us!"

"The branch in Yuan City has received a divine oracle from Ananda Tashasha. According to ancient rules, they are the headquarters for this generation."

"Let's go, Sect Hierarch. Follow me to Yuan City now to worship and receive the infinite blessings of Tashasha. This is the highest honor, something the old Sect Hierarch never encountered in his lifetime!"

Mr. An spread his arms, his fervent faith clear for all to see.

Ning Fengwan inexplicably felt a sense of horror, causing her fur to stand on end, and her emerald-green, cat-like eyes filled with wariness.

"Sect Hierarch, your potential is exceptional, and you could surely become a Blessed One under Tashasha, even possibly a 'Divine Child'..."

As Mr. An was speaking, he began walking towards Ning Fengwan.

"By then, our branch of the Dragon Cult can rebuild with the strength of the headquarters. The Spirit of the Heaven that is the old Sect Hierarch would certainly..."

His words had barely finished when a 'bang' suddenly echoed from the side.

A handsome and tall youth appeared from nowhere, causing the alleyway's cement floor to crack as he landed.

"Sorry, I didn't expect that the air conditioning unit was full of water. I slipped a bit."

Xue Jing spoke with a bit of embarrassment.

He looked around at the three pairs of eyes that turned to face him, pondered for a moment, then hesitantly said, "Maybe I've come at a bad time?"
