Chapter 47 - 47 Too Generous



His eyes flashed, and he asked curiously, “What deal?”

The cat general glanced at Ai.

“I want you to take care of Ai.”

!!

As soon as the cat general said this, both Lin Shen and Ai were stunned.

“I can’t stay by Ai’s side all the time, and Ai is innocent. She can’t live in Dragonside City alone, so I hope you can take care of her.”

Lin Shen glanced at Ai and thought to himself that the cat general was making an understatement. She wasn’t just naive; she was rather dumb.

If she really lived alone in Linlong City, she might be caught at any time.

Lin Shen was a little curious about how Ai could last so long under the siege of the Night Grinders.

Many thoughts flashed through his mind in an instant. Lin Shen pursed his lips and shook his head to stop his imagination.

“I’m sorry. I can’t do that.”

Apart from the Dragon Roar Through the Clouds and the God Seeking Token, the reason why Lin Shen agreed to save Ai tonight because this was a one-time deal.

The Night Grinders did not know his true identity. After tonight, he would no longer need to interact with the Night Grinders.

However, it would be different if he agreed to the cat general’s request.

No one could guarantee the Night Grinders wouldn’t come after Ai again.

If that really happened, Lin Shen would no longer be able to stay out of it. He would have to face the Night Grinders head-on.

Although he wasn’t afraid of the Night Grinders, he didn’t want to provoke such trouble for nothing.

No matter what reward the cat general offered, Lin Shen had no intention of agreeing…

“In return, I can give you another powerful martial technique.”

“…”

Lin Shen cleared his throat.

“Pardon me for asking, but what martial technique is it?”

“It’s a Physical Enhancement martial technique, but it can only be cultivated with the cooperation of spiritual essence.”

Lin Shen’s expression changed.

If it required the combination of spiritual essence, it meant the martial technique could only be cultivated by those at the Long Breath Stage.

However, he wanted a Physical Enhancement martial technique now because he wanted to increase his combat ability without slowing down the improvement of his cultivation level.

Once he broke through to the Long Breath Stage, he could choose to cultivate weapon-type martial techniques. Physical Enhancement martial techniques wouldn’t be as attractive to him as now.

Still, a powerful martial technique at the Long Breath Stage was still very precious.

Lin Shen was a little tempted.

As if sensing Lin Shen’s hesitation, the cat general seized the opportunity and continued.

“Apart from martial techniques, I can also open more restrictions on your God Seeking Token.”

“What do you mean?”

“The rune stones embedded in the God Seeking Token are restrictions. The more rune stones lit up, the fewer restrictions the God Seeking Token will have, and the higher the cultivation level of the incarnation it can summon!”

Lin Shen was enlightened. So that was the effect of those rune stones.

That explained a lot of things. If the mighty God Seeking Token could only summon a Long Breath Stage incarnation, that would be too weak.

Martial arts and the effect of increasing the God Seeking Token…

Lin Shen was even more tempted.

“I can also get Ai to sign a soul contract with you.” The cat general threw out another offer.

A soul contract was one of the most common contracts in the cultivation world. It was usually used to tame spiritual beasts.

Whenever a cultivator raised a spiritual beast, they would first sign a soul contract with it.

Once the contract was established, the spiritual beast would be loyal to their master and obey their orders.

Moreover, once the cultivator died, the spiritual beasts would also lose their lives.

It meant as long as a soul contract was signed, the spiritual beasts would never be able to betray their masters in their lives.

Similar contracts included law contracts and blood contracts.

The former was a contract commonly used by orthodox sects, while the latter was a contract commonly used by heretic ones.

However, these two types of contracts were more extensive and flexible than soul contracts.

Lin Shen glanced at Ai, who seemed confused but didn’t object to the cat general’s words.

In any case, with the soul contract, Lin Shen’s biggest concern about adopting Ai was mostly resolved.

However, there was another very realistic problem.

“Divine Lord, to be honest, with my current financial resources, I can’t afford to raise a spiritual beast!” Lin Shen shrugged.

To a certain extent, raising a spiritual beast was more expensive than raising a person.

Most spiritual beasts needed to eat meat and even spirit beast meat every day to survive.

Some special spiritual beasts even had to eat rare herbs every day. The cost was huge, and it was almost as expensive as nurturing a cultivator.

Lin Shen was already struggling to make ends meet. He wished he could break a spirit coin into two and use it. How could he still have the energy to raise a spiritual cat?

...

But unexpectedly, after hearing Lin Shen’s words, the cat general only smiled faintly and turned to look at Ai.

“Ai, take out the stone you found earlier.”

Ai nodded obediently. She used her paw to touch the golden bell on her neck. When she retracted her paw, there was a stone on it.

Lin Shen raised his eyebrows in surprise. It turned out the bell was a storage treasure like the storage jade plate!

“You recognize this thing, right?”

The cat general took the stone and threw it at Lin Shen.

Lin Shen reached out to catch it with a puzzled expression. He looked at it carefully, and a look of surprise gradually appeared on his face.

He could feel the faint spiritual aura emitted by this stone.

“Is this an essence stone?”

“That’s right.” The cat general nodded.

After getting the cat general’s confirmation, Lin Shen couldn’t help but take a deep breath.

...

The essence stone was a mystical object containing the spiritual energy of heaven and earth. It was a necessity for cultivators to cultivate, replenish their spiritual energy, refine spiritual artifacts and pills, and even set up formations. It was very expensive.

Although the essence stone in Lin Shen’s hand was only the size of a pinky and not even a low-grade one. At most, it could be considered a broken essence stone. However, if sold on the market, it could be worth at least 200 to 300 thousand spirit coins.

This broken essence stone alone was enough to cover his living and cultivation expenses for a month!

“Ai is very sensitive to natural spiritual energy and is very good at finding essence stones and rare herbs. She found this essence stone by accident. With this ability, I don’t think you need to worry too much about her expenses,” the cat general said slowly.

Lin Shen took a deep breath and looked at Ai in surprise.

“No wonder you look so silly. It turns out you’re making up your intelligence with treasure-hunting skills!

With this powerful ability, she could afford to cover his living expenses as well, not to mention raising herself!

At that moment, Lin Shen wanted to hug Ai and ask her to become his sugar daddy.

“What do you think, cultivator? Do you want to make this deal with me?” The cat general stared at Lin Shen.

After hesitating for a moment, Lin Shen finally nodded.

“Alright, I agree!”

He had no choice. The offer was too generous!

The martial technique, the God Seeking Token, and Ai’s treasure-hunting ability were all very beneficial to him. He really couldn’t bring himself to say no.

“I’ll do it! What’s there to be afraid of?

“The Night Grinders are nothing!

If nothing worked, he still had the God Seeking Token. If the Night Grinders didn’t give up and came to find trouble with him, he would make sure that those guys never returned!

Seeing that Lin Shen had agreed, a smile appeared on the cat general’s face. Its whiskers even trembled a few times, which showed how happy he was.

Seeing this, Lin Shen couldn’t help but ask curiously,

“Divine Lord, do you trust me that much?”
