  Purple Sabre Fairy sauntered down the magnificent lobby with his eyes scanning one person after another.

  As the core member of the most influential apostle organization in Southern China, Ivory, Purple Sabre Fairy’s objective for this trip was to recruit more cats for his organization.

  By manipulating the mortals with his power, the leader of Ivory, Death Prophet, had elevated his organization’s standings amongst all fields. Conversely, their substandard combat powers had failed to catch up. Hence, Purple Sabre Fairy had his eyes set on the ultimate prize – the King Pallas’s cat.

  After all, Mao Gang was infamous for their supercat auctions. Hence, there were bound to be other valuable supercats other than the King Pallas’s cat.

  While he was absorbed in his thoughts, Wind Devil started strolling towards him with a cup of martini in his hand and a devilish smile spread across his face.

  Purple Sabre Fairy met his smile with an intent glare. Wind Devil was one of Talon’s ace warriors. He had been exceptionally active the past few months. Even the southern apostles had learned about his atrocities.

  However, Wind Devil started acting all friendly and inched towards Purple Sabre Fairy before whispering into his ears, “Hey, loosen up. This is supposed to be a happy event. Try to smile.”


  Purple Sabre Fairy’s cool voice contrasted against Wind Devil’s enthusiasm, “Is Talon also here for the Super Pallas’s cat?”


  “I guess so,” Wind Devil laughed along as he switched his gaze to a corner of the hall, “Do you see that guy over there?”


  Purple Sabre Fairy turned his head around only to see a group of men with chins full of beard, dressed in authentic Chinese robes. They were the quintessential country bumpkins. Somehow, there was a huge tiger resting by their side. However, it instantly turned into an orange cat which started purring in one of the men’s’ arms when he caressed it.

  Wind Devil cautioned, “This is Prince Zazabi of the neighboring OPEC countries. That cat there is Zola. It has the power to turn into a tiger. Based on our intel, this tiger is as strong as a military tank. Any ordinary bullets cannot penetrate its thick skin. It’s famous in its country. The bearded man beside him must have borrowed his power. He too can transform into a tiger.”


  Purple Sabre Fairy’s eyebrow shot skyward, “How did you acquire all these information?”


  A sinister smile tugged at the corner of his lips as he replied, “That’s not the only information that I have.” He directed his attention to a group of Caucasians dressed in an immaculate white suit and continued, “These apostles come from Maine, US. They belong to an organization called Star Cats. Do you know where Maine is? I heard Maine Coon came from there.

  However, people only grew interested in that place because the meteorite landed there. Rumors say that the supercats there are significantly stronger than our average supercats. I’m not sure who these apostles from Star Cats are, but they are definitely no pushovers.”


  The majority of the apostles knew that the meteorite responsible for the supercats landed at Maine, US. Even Zhao Yao knew about it from Ho Hao Cang’s mouth.

  Calmly, Wind Devil turned his head around and focused his attention on a group of Japanese, “This is Yagyu Kazuihiko’s eldest disciple. It is rumored that he had mastered his master’s world-famous shadow manipulation powers. By seamlessly integrating this ability with his perfect swordplay, he holds the record for 29 consecutive kills.”


  “Here we have the largest apostle group in India, the Samsara Sect, with its three apostle representatives. Their powers remain a mystery. Over here are the five apostles sent by the richest man of Singapore. Their powers are also unknown. However, we understand they were all ex-military personnel. The secret society of Singapore, Devine Intervention, is also here with their 12 apostles. We only know about their leader, Lee Hao Nan. His power is something like a metallic skin. Anyway, I do know a little about the powers here but one thing that I know for sure is that they are not to be trifled with.”


  Following his elaborate description, Purple Sabre Fairy’s forehead began to furrow together.

  He finally let out a sigh before asking, “How did you learn about all these?”


  Wind Devil chortled, “That’s because we have been busy collecting intel about all these infamous international organizations. Frankly, we are not as rich as Ivory. Hence, our original plan was to steal all their cats in one fell swoop.

  However, I knew that it was impossible the moment I landed here. All of them meant business.”


  Purple Sabre Fairy struggled to suppress his worries. The rumors spreading regarding Talon were true. All the apostles there were lunatics. He was glad that the leader of Ivory was so much more rational compared to them. He was more aligned with the modern world and they never had to worry about monetary problems.

  However, judging from the characters in this auction, it was highly likely that he would fail to secure his objective.

  “There are so many dangerous apostles lurking around. If they decided to act together, they can instantly destroy an entire city.”


  Suddenly, Wind Devil continued his explanation, “Purple Sabre Fairy, to tell you the truth, there is no chance of either Talon or Ivory bringing home the King Pallas’s cat if we acted alone. We don’t have enough money. You might be able to afford it but you can’t bring it home. The rest will simply snatch it away before you return to China.

  Hence, I propose collaboration. After all, isn’t it better for a strong cat like the Super Pallas’s cat to return to our beloved homeland than the foreigners’ land?”


  A moment of hesitation flashed across Purple Sabre Fairy’s eyes. The scale of this auction had far exceeded his estimations. He was confident in bringing the apostles down if it came down to a one-on-one fight. However, there were simply too many apostles here. Security was truly a problem.

  He stared at Wind Devil for a split second before he replied, “Let me think about it.”
……

  Zhao Yao’s extradimensional gate remained erected in the middle of the auction hall. By hiding behind it, no one was even able to detect his presence.

  Currently, Zhao Yao had expended all 3 extradimensional gates. One was left in Faceless’s mansion while the remaining two were used for him to run around. Now, they were both inside the auction hall.

  Diana and Lightning both collapsed to the ground. Evidently, they were still in the midst of a struggle within the dream state.

  Zhao Yao’s ears began to quiver as he listened intently to Wind Devil’s words. Evidently, he was eavesdropping on their conversation.

  A line began to etch between his eyebrows as he learned about the abilities of the apostles around him and their stories.

  Originally, Zhao Yao was already rather somewhat furious with Mao Gang’s practice. However, he then learned about their importance in establishing law and order in the supercat’s world through Ye Mei’s mouth. Hence, he decided to turn a blind eye to their actions as long as they did not cross the line.

  However, upon learning that they were using adolescents to fight their wars, Zhao Yao could no longer ignore their atrocities. Flames of anger were literally shooting through him. He planned to report everything to Ye Mei once the matter was resolved.
