"What?" Jiang Si opened her mouth wide in disbelief, shoving the video at the nine-tailed orange cat lying sprawled out, eyes rolled back, tongue lolling out: "Honey, what is this thing?"

Agares' deep voice paused slightly as he repeated what he had said before, "Your Highness, what are you talking about? The Nine-Tailed Cat, the sacred beast of the orc race!"

Jiang Si picked up the unconscious, sprawled orange with her backhand.

The big orange had its front legs dangling, its hind legs dangling, its nine fluffy tails hanging down, its head tilted, its tongue lolling out, looking utterly hopeless.

Jiang Si poked Da Ju Zi's round face with her other hand, saying with a complicated expression, "This thing is the Nine-Tailed Cat, a sacred beast of the orc race. I'm not well-educated, so don't try to fool me."

“My parents don’t recognize this thing. They all say it’s a primal creature. You say it’s a sacred beast of the beastmen, then it is a sacred beast. Where’s the proof?”

Are there really such silly mythical beasts?

No.

Besides, her group of shady characters, though she didn't know exactly what their identities were, she could imagine that none of them were easy to deal with. For example, Fu Huan... a true merman bigwig, Yu Feifei, the princess who escaped from the Fourth Civilization, and others from the Federation, and so on.

There were about 30 people, and they had at least 30 different aliases. Moreover, each of them was either rich or noble, powerful or influential, and knowledgeable. They didn't even recognize that Si Mubei was the Nine-Tailed Cat, the sacred beast of the orc race. So why did Agares think that way?

Agares looked at his young wife through the screen, listening to her disbelief in his words, and slowly said, "You know you're not well-educated and are easily fooled, so why don't you study?"

The rejected ginger shreds: "..."

So what if I don't read much?

She didn't have much education, but did she become arrogant?

Jiang Si pouted. She had originally wanted to rub the cat on her stomach, but Jiang Dandan had already taken over, so she put the cat back in its place and looked directly at her cheap husband through the screen: "And then?"

Agares' lips curled into an almost imperceptible smile: "It's normal that your parents don't know him. The Nine-Tailed Cat was most famous among the Orcs, especially in the Abel Galaxy, 2300 years ago."

"In the legends and fables, every cat has nine lives, so they are not easy to die when they fall from a height, into the water, or encounter danger."

"The nine-tailed cat is a legend among legends. It was originally said to have appeared in the mythology of ancient China in the Milky Way."

"The story says... Legend has it that anyone in the world with seven orifices can cultivate to become an immortal, and cats are naturally among them. Cats with spiritual roots and spiritual energy will grow a tail every 20 years of cultivation. When they have nine tails, they have achieved perfect merit and even the gods in heaven will show them respect."

"However, it is extremely difficult for a cat to grow its ninth tail. When a cat grows its eighth tail, it will receive a hint, which is the tribulation in the legend. This so-called tribulation is to help a destined person realize their wish. After the wish is fulfilled, it will grow a new tail, and at the same time, one of its old tails will fall off, making it eight tails."

"This cycle repeats itself endlessly, creating a vicious cycle. No matter what, it's impossible to cultivate to nine tails. But cats always believe they can cultivate to nine tails. Whether there are any legendary cats that have cultivated to nine tails, I don't know."

"2300 years ago, a nine-tailed cat appeared among the orcs. It was a nine-tailed cat with snow-white fur and heterochromatic eyes. The appearance of that nine-tailed cat forcefully replaced the orcs' sacred beast, the nine-tailed fox, and became the sacred beast."

Ginger shreds: "!!!!"

The nine-tailed cat replaced the nine-tailed fox as the sacred beast?

So the one lying on her bed is a hybrid of a nine-tailed cat and a nine-tailed fox?

What does this tell us?

Does this mean that the nine-tailed cat and the nine-tailed fox from 2300 years ago had a relationship?

That's why their ancestors and descendants have a nine-tailed fox cat that is both a cat and a fox.

Agares paused for a moment, then continued, "The nine-tailed cat replaced the nine-tailed fox as the sacred beast of the orcs, and successfully predicted earthquakes, volcanic eruptions, planetary explosions, and invasions by other races, among other things."

"For a time, the Nine-Tailed Cat was all the rage, revered by the entire Beastman race as a true sacred beast and messenger of the Beast God. However, this good fortune did not last long. Everything is fair. The Nine-Tailed Cat successfully predicted these disasters, and at the same time... it had to pay the price."

Jiang Si's face darkened: "It will pay a price, and that price is its tail?"

Agares nodded: "Yes, it prophesied that one tail would fall off each time, nine tails, nine prophecies. It saved the orcs from natural and man-made disasters, but it was no longer viable."

"It's finished. The nine-tailed fox it drove away has returned. The nine-tailed fox has successfully reclaimed its throne and taken the position of sacred beast. Together with the then-king of the orcs, they imprisoned the nine-tailed cat and ordered the erasure of everything related to the nine-tailed cat, wiping out all its achievements."

"Then... after 2300 years, basically no one, no beast knew that the Nine-Tailed Cat had once been a sacred beast. Moreover... as time passed, a secret decree was rumored to have been issued by the royal family of the Beastmen. The decree stated: If a Nine-Tailed Cat appears in the Beastman Cat Clan, it can directly skip the sacred beast Nine-Tailed Fox and be conferred the title of sacred beast."

"This secret decree is known only to the royal family; no other beastmen know about it, including the current sacred beast, the Nine-Tailed Fox."

The other orcs were unaware of this.

Jiang Si blurted out, "Since this is a secret that the other beastmen don't know, how do you know it?"

Agares' dark eyes flashed, but his cold and handsome face remained unchanged. He opened his mouth and said in a serious tone, "I know these things thanks to my teacher, General Bo Jichen. He asked me to study the habits of various races and species."

"I accidentally saw the Nine-Tailed Cat in an ancient book, so I entered the Orc Royal Private System, looked up some information, and got a general idea of ​​it."

Jiang Si suddenly realized: "Oh, I see. So, how much do you think this cat is worth?"

Agares: "..."

"Oh, no." Jiang Si realized her mistake after saying that and quickly explained, "What I meant was, if I send this cat to the beastmen and he becomes a sacred beast, will I become rich?"

Agares was speechless: "I don't know if you'll post it or not, but this little kitten will definitely stay in the temple for its entire life, just like the orcish sacred beast, the Nine-Tailed Fox, and can't go anywhere else!"

Are you destined to spend your entire life trapped in the temple, never able to leave?

So... is this the reason why Cheap Mom ran away from home to become a space pirate?

I'd rather be a robber than live a life of luxury and wealth than have freedom.

Jiang Si patted her chest and said earnestly, "Life is precious, love is more precious, but freedom is the most precious of all. I finally understand the meaning of these words."

"So...honey...this little kitten..."

Before she could finish speaking, Agares squinted at the kitten lying on the bed and interrupted her in a deep voice: "Wait, I know who this sacred beast, the nine-tailed cat, is."

Jiang Si exclaimed, "You know who it is?"

Agares nodded, and said firmly, "Yes, I know who he is. He's your Mu Bei's mother, isn't he?"
