The Understated Dragon Lord novel Chapter 733

Daniel was determined to expose Black's lies. Wanting to compel some honesty from Black, he chose the simplest method — raising the wooden stick high.

"Whack!" The stick came down hard onto Black's bottom.

"Ah! Ouch!"

"Country boy, you struck me again! Are you trying to kill me? My old bones can't take this kind of torture!"

"Black, I don't want to torment you either! But you've been so dishonest. If you're not going to be straight with me, I need to persuade you to open up a little bit!" Daniel said, swinging the stick through the air for emphasis.

Whoosh! Whoosh! The stick cut through the air with a chilling whistle, sending shivers down Black's spine. The mere sound made his bottom ache in anticipation of another strike.

"Are you ready to tell the truth now?" asked Daniel with a smile.

"I'll talk! I'll tell the truth!" Black was ready to give in.

"Spill it, then! How did you find The Spirit Cat?" Daniel pressed.

"We discovered its weakness!"

"What about the kitten?"

"Of course, The Spirit Cat rescued it! It was only because it was in a hurry to save the kitten that we managed to escape. Otherwise, we would have been dead meat under The Spirit Cat's claws."

Black recounted the events with a shiver.

"Black! You say you're so old, yet you dared to steal The Spirit Cat's kitten. Do you even know what morality is?" Daniel scolded, then added his own insight. "If The Spirit Cat has an offspring, that means there's not just one but a pair of them! Because a single female couldn't reproduce on her own."

Daniel's words sparked an epiphany in Black. "You're right! It's a pair! That explains why I noticed The Spirit Cat looking different at times while it was chasing us. We were being hunted by two Spirit Cats, not just one!"
