In reality, Dust Ball was bewildered. A moment ago, she was still sleeping soundly in Zhao Yao's pocket. Now, Zhao Yao took her out from his pocket and stretched her mouth wide open.
"Zhao Yao! What did I just eat?" Dust Ball licked her lips and asked hesitantly, "It seems quite delicious though."
Zhao Yao gave a gentle rub on the back of her head and replied, "Nothing, it was just an ice-cream. Was it good?"
Dust Ball continued to lick her lips and stared at Zhao Yao with an adorable smile, "Are there more?"
Dust Ball's loyalty had increased by 1 point.
"Nope, but I'll give you more when we get back!" Zhao Yao giggled when he saw Dust Ball's loyalty increased. He turned his head to his BOOK and noticed that he had completed the mission on the mission panel. Phew! He could finally relax after receiving confirmation that the mission was over.
He allowed Specter to make contact with his body to convince Specter that he had a tangible body. With the use of illusion to disguise Dust Ball's position and Specter's disorientated sense of direction, Zhao Yao immediately led Specter into Dust Ball's mouth.
Extradimensional belly allowed living matter to enter if they wanted to. That was how Matcha came to get hold of his phone.
Extradimensional belly could also simultaneously absorb non-living matter.
Zhao Yao did not know whether Specter got absorbed in because he was a non-living matter or because he willingly went in as a living matter. Zhao Yao just created a condition which would fulfill both requirements and captured it in Dust Ball's belly.
Zhao Yao was supposed to earn two hundred experience points for the mission. Due to "2X Exp Card", he received four hundred experience points instead. Suddenly the contents of his book changed again:
Book: lv3(824/2000)
The black curtain and all the spirits had disappeared. Order was restored in the manor.
The people who were escaping stopped in their tracks and turned around to see Zhao Yao and Dust Ball with a look of astonishment.
Xiao Ming was the first person to notice, and he shouted agitatedly, "Master did you succeed? Did you manage to overcome that spirit?"
"Hmm," Zhao Yao was pleasantly surprised by his wit and grinned from ear to ear. He nodded his head and continued, "I've used a magical seal to seal the spirit into the black cat's stomach. You do not have to worry. The spirit will never bother your family again."
Gasps and exclamations erupted from the people. Even Xiao Ai Guo, the person who did not have much faith in Zhao Yao, came forward to shake his hands and told Xiao Ming, "Xiao Ming, you haven't introduced ask us to our savior! This spirit threatened our family for a long time; I could not imagine what could befall us if he did not intervene and save us."
Xiao Ming stared at Zhao Yao hesitantly because he had promised to keep Zhao Yao's identify a secret.
Xiao Ai Guo noticed it and announced, "It's okay. No matter what you will always be our family's savior. You must stay for dinner for us to show our gratitude."
Granny Xiao, who was previously influenced by the Specter, staggered over to shake Zhao Yao's hands. She could not express her gratitude in words.
As for the rest of the Xiao family, they were just in awe as they gazed at Zhao Yao with admiration.
It was rather an awkward situation for the priests, monks, and psychics to be in. They were quite reputable and respected by many in their fields. Today, when compared to Luo Hao and Zhao Yao, it was like Golden State Warriors competing against Dallas Mavericks.
However, Zhao Yao was the one who saved them from the evil spirit; they were grateful yet envious of Zhao Yao's ability. They had a mixed bag of emotions just thinking about what happened.
Luo Hao, who was previously possessed by Specter, regained consciousness after Specter was sealed in the extradimensional belly. Members of the Xiao family brought him out of the house, and no one knew what they were going to do to him.
However, there were a few people who had other ideas in their head. Priest Yang and Master Mao stared at Zhao Yao with a glimmer in their eyes, and they thought, "If I were to learn magic from this guy, I would be able to make so much money."
Zhao Yao was not bothered by the attention he was showered with. He just felt a little awkward because of Granny Xiao's never-ending handshake which was followed by words of thanks by every member of the Xiao family and culminated with a feast.
However, that was not what Zhao Yao wanted. He was still waiting for the thing which he longed for.
He could not help but think, "Aren't you guys super rich? Just quickly give my pay, who wants to have dinner with you? I would rather go back to my cats."
It was as if Granny Xiao could read Zhao Yao's mind as she tapped her head and announced, "I got washed over with happiness that I almost forgot about the most important thing. I would like to thank everyone who came down today and help solved this crisis. You can collect a RMB one hundred thousand red packet when you leave. Please take it as a token of my appreciation."
Granny Xiao was very good with her words. Her speech lifted the mood in the hall, and everyone was seen grinning from ear to ear.
She held Zhao Yao's hands and whispered, "Especially you, Master. God knows what would happen to my house if not for you. However, I know that you do not care about money …"
Zhao Yao shouted in his head, "No! I care about money! I love money! The only thing I love in life is money and cats!" However, he continued to look at Granny Xiao with a gentle smile.
Granny Xiao continued, "However, I do not know of any other ways to repay you but with money. I will get someone to transfer RMB fifty million to your account. It's just my token of appreciation. If you need help in the future, the house of Xiao would always be at your service."
A few sitting at the table stared with their mouth wide open. Even at the house of Xiao, RMB fifty million was no small sum. However, Granny Xiao had absolute authority over the house, and her words overwrote everyone.
Under the influence of Specter, Granny Xiao had witnessed how powerful such magic was. Her gesture was not just to show her gratitude but to pull Zhao Yao to her side.
Zhao Yao was in a daze when he heard the words, RMB fifty million, and was over the moon.
His smile did not fade as he walked into Xiao Ming's car and was on his way back to his café.
"RMB Fifty million … RMB Fifty million …"
Xiao Ming pouted as he saw Zhao Yao who could not hide his excitement to himself and asked, "Master, where are you heading to? Back to the café?"
Zhao Yao was jolted from his daydream by Xiao Ming's question and asked, "Oh yes, how about the RMB two million which you promised me."
Xiao Ming laughed awkwardly and responded, "You can send me your bank account details via WeChat, and I'll get someone to send the money over as soon as possible."
However, both Xiao Ming and Zhao Yao did not notice, or maybe it was impossible for them to realize that they were stalked.
It was a cat stalking them. Its body was translucent, and it gave out a faint blue light. Its hind legs were just a cloud of smoke, making it almost impossible to spot. Because of its appearance, you could not even identify its species.
Its form was very similar to Specter's form and it was evident that it was the supercat which gave Specter his power.
Because it was always in its spirit form, Zhao Yao and Xiao Ming did not notice it.
It was just floating behind the car, with a curious look on its face.
"So there's a power which could eat up a ghost? I thought that I was invincible with my power, I guess there's so much more for me to learn about superpowers."
It licked its paws and pondered, "Hmm, even though I still do not fully understand how his power works, but I should keep an eye out for the both of them."
Hence, the spirit cat followed them all the way back to the cat café.
They had spent quite some time on the road and in the fight against Specter. They arrived at the café just before it closed.
The spirit cat continued following Zhao Yao and noticed something strange when he stopped abruptly and held his head in his hands.
"Shit, my Panamera is still in Dust Ball's belly."
In reality, Dust Ball was bewildered. A moment ago, she was still sleeping soundly in Zhao Yao's pocket. Now, Zhao Yao took her out from his pocket and stretched her mouth wide open.
"Zhao Yao! What did I just eat?" Dust Ball licked her lips and asked hesitantly, "It seems quite delicious though."
