"Meow meow, you actually became my spirit pet?" Looking at the small line of text that appeared above Beiluoshimen's head, Jiang Yuan said in surprise. "Ugh, I told you, my name is Beiluoshimen!" A playful female voice suddenly rang out in Jiang Yuan's mind. "Who? Who's in my head? Get out now!" Startled by the voice that abruptly appeared in his mind, Jiang Yuan immediately shouted inwardly. "Hehe, it's me, Master!" Just then, the cat suddenly jumped onto Jiang Yuan's shoulder and scratched his cheek with its paw. "Meow meow, was that you talking to me?" Jiang Yuan was slightly surprised, looking at the Persian cat covered in wounds on his shoulder. "I said my name is Beiluoshimen, why do you keep calling me Meow Meow? It's so ugly!" Beiluoshimen, lying on Jiang Yuan's shoulder, blinked at him and then nodded! "Beiluoshimen, you can actually talk?" Jiang Yuan looked at Beiluoshimen with an incredulous expression. "I've always been able to talk, okay? It's just that I couldn't establish communication with you before!" Beiluoshimen said coquettishly to Jiang Yuan. "Beiluoshimen, how are your injuries? Are they serious?" Seeing the wounds on Beiluoshimen, Jiang Yuan immediately asked with concern. "Just a few minor scratches, nothing serious! But it does hurt a bit, meow wuwuwu!" Beiluoshimen, standing on Jiang Yuan's shoulder, turned its head to lick its wounds, put on a pitiful face, and said to Jiang Yuan. "Beiluoshimen, ah, that feels so awkward to say. I'll just call you Meow Meow!" As soon as Jiang Yuan said "Beiluoshimen," he felt his tongue twist, so he said helplessly. "No, no! Meow Meow sounds terrible!" Beiluoshimen kept scratching Jiang Yuan with its paws in protest. "Hmm, then I'll call you Beiluo!" In the end, Jiang Yuan came up with a name and reached a consensus with the Persian cat that kept scratching his face on his shoulder. "Beiluo, can you tell me about your previous master?" Curious about the Northern Dipper Star Lord who had bestowed the power of inheritance upon him, Jiang Yuan looked at Beiluoshimen and asked. "My master was a star official in the celestial realm in charge of the Northern Heavenly Gate, which is the gate for the celestial army to enter and exit, so it's also called the 'Military Gate.' That's how I got my name. Who knew that my master... meow wuwuwu!" When Jiang Yuan asked about the Northern Dipper Star Lord, Beiluoshimen couldn't hide its sadness and said to him. "Tch, I thought it was some big official, turns out it was just a gatekeeper grandpa!" Jiang Yuan muttered to himself, and Beiluoshimen, lying on his shoulder, immediately asked, "What's a gatekeeper grandpa?" "Uh, it means the person in charge." Caught off guard by the question, Jiang Yuan had a flash of inspiration and explained to Beiluoshimen in a different way. "The person in charge? That sounds so impressive. Master, when you ascend to the celestial realm, you'll be the person in charge too!" Beiluoshimen stretched its head out, rubbed against Jiang Yuan's neck, and said happily. "Beiluo, who was stronger, your previous master or that Eastern Demon Lord?" Remembering the Demon Realm Lord mentioned by the Northern Dipper Star Lord, Jiang Yuan asked Beiluoshimen. "Of course, the Eastern Demon is stronger! He's a genuine Demon Lord-level figure, while my master was just a minor Golden Immortal. In this cat's estimation, the Eastern Demon didn't even go all out; otherwise, with a burst of demonic energy, my master would have fallen on the spot!" Beiluoshimen waved its front paws, standing on Jiang Yuan's shoulder and said. "Demon Lord? That sounds pretty powerful. Are the other Demon Lords in the Demon Realm also at the Demon Lord level?" "Of course, only by breaking through to the Demon Lord level can one qualify to become a Demon Realm Lord. But even at the same Demon Lord level, the Southern Demon Lord and Western Demon Lord are only level 65 Demon Lords, the Northern Demon Lord is a level 69 Demon Lord, and the Eastern Demon is as high as level 72! If the Eastern Demon Lord breaks through to level 73, he could become the first Demon Emperor in tens of thousands of years in the Demon Realm, and then no one in the three realms would be able to match him!" "No wonder the Demon Realm has been so active lately; it must be the Eastern Demon's doing." After Beiluoshimen finished speaking, Jiang Yuan had a rough understanding of the top combat power in the Demon Realm. "Beiluo, now that this matter is settled, we should head back. I just happen to have a surprise for you!" After chatting with Beiluoshimen for a long time, Jiang Yuan slowly stood up, said to it, and then walked out of the cave. Bringing Beiluoshimen back to the Upper Capital, he found the NPC for home teleportation. With a flash of white light, the one person and one cat arrived at the Yuhang realm map. At that moment, an antique two-story small courtyard appeared before Jiang Yuan, with the number clearly marked as 001! Leading Beiluoshimen into the courtyard, he pushed open the door. An elderly man stood in the yard, and upon seeing Jiang Yuan, he immediately bowed and said, "Your servant greets the master." "You are?" Seeing an unfamiliar old man standing in his newly built home, calling him "master," Jiang Yuan asked in confusion. "Your servant's surname is Zhong, the steward of the master, tasked with managing this residence." The old man surnamed Zhong said to Jiang Yuan with a smile. "So you're Steward Zhong. I'll be in your care from now on." "Master, please come in." After Jiang Yuan spoke, Steward Zhong made a "please" gesture, slightly stepping aside to clear the way. Jiang Yuan led Beiluoshimen into his luxurious home. Facing the main gate was a several-meter-high screen wall, carved with a "Pine and Crane Longevity" pattern. Rounding the screen wall, a garden came into view. In front of the garden was a long corridor. Following the corridor inside, Jiang Yuan saw a two-story building with carved beams and painted rafters, very beautiful. Entering the first floor, Jiang Yuan found two armchairs and a mural hanging on the wall, likely used as a living room for guests. Climbing the wooden stairs to the second floor, there were three rooms. One room was clearly a bedroom, the middle room connected to the bedroom and contained a bathtub, likely a bathing area, and the other separate room had a desk, bookshelves, and a few chairs, presumably a study. "Meow! What a beautiful house!" Beiluoshimen jumped off Jiang Yuan's shoulder and rolled around on the soft, red-carpeted floor, clearly very satisfied with Jiang Yuan's residence. "Hehe, Beiluo, this is your home from now on!" Jiang Yuan patted Beiluoshimen's little head as it rolled on the floor, smiling warmly. "Meow! Awesome! I want to take a bath first, and then quickly prepare some dried fish for me. I'm hungry!" Beiluoshimen stretched, flipped over with a thud, and ran out of the room.
