Douluo Continent: Starting with a Tom Cat

Page 115

Tianya looked at Bu Le with a mixture of evasion and pity in his eyes.

Family members, who understands how painful it is for those who do this kind of thing—to lose their manhood?

To be honest, they still can't believe that their like-minded best friend had his manhood destroyed by a cat.

Fortunately, when they were hunting spirit beasts for Bu Le as a group, they encountered a mysterious person.

The mysterious man killed all their makeshift teammates, but spared the lives of the three of them.

That bloody scene remains unforgettable for Tianya to this day.

"Hehehe, the auras of the three of you are quite unique. You are promising talents. I will spare your lives and you will plunder Soul Masters for me from now on."

"If you perform well, I will teach you a secret technique that can rapidly improve your cultivation level, and may even heal your injuries."

Tianya and the others didn't believe it until the mysterious man held a knife to their necks and gave them an unknown poison, leaving them no choice but to believe it.

"Hehe, I knew Tianya was the best to me." Bu Le said with a grin, a charming look that shouldn't belong to him appearing on his greasy face.

Drowning people often grasp at every straw, hoping that, just in case, the mysterious person can actually help them regrow their manhood.

"vomit!"

Tianya and Ekao couldn't hold it in any longer; their stomachs were churning, and they felt like they were going to throw up. It was so disgusting.

The reason Tianya and his group came to Tianshui City was that they intended to plunder female Soul Masters.

After all, none of the people they plundered survived anyway, so they might as well have their fun first and then offer the female soul master to them—it was a win-win situation.

The three of them turned and looked seriously at the people walking back and forth on the street, sensing the strength of their soul power, so as not to run into a tough opponent. It would be best to find someone with a similar cultivation level.

"Ah! Old Goose, Tianya! Look!" Bule let out a sharp cry, his eyes seemed to spit fire, and his orchid finger trembled as he pointed at a small blue kitten.

The two men looked up and their eyes lit up. "Holy crap, what voluptuous girls, and a pair at that." At that moment, their eyes were only on the Shui Bing'er sisters, and their drool was practically dripping.

Unhappy and furious, he punched the two men, shouting, "Look at that cat! That cat ruined my manhood, and there's that rat on its shoulder too!"

"Hehe, is that all? Don't worry, Bu Le, Old Goose and I will avenge you." We'll follow you secretly for now, and when we get to a secluded place, hehehe.

Tianya patted his chest and gave a guarantee, while his eyes remained fixed on Shui Bing'er, who was simply too alluring.

As for whether he could defeat them, Tianya didn't care at all. He and Lao E were both high-level Soul Kings, and he could clearly sense the strength of the other group.

Only the little girl with the ice-blue hair had a higher cultivation level, but it was only around the Soul Master level. As for Shen An, he was not taken seriously by them at all, as there was not a trace of soul power fluctuation on his body.

"Hmm?" Shen An instinctively sensed that someone was watching him and his group; this was the keen sense of a swordsman.

Soon, he spotted the three people from Tianya hiding in the shadows. Shen An frowned; these people didn't look like good people at all, and just looking at them made him want to vomit.

Shen An looked at the bustling streets around him and said with a smile, "I remember there's a river outside Tianshui City. Tom has been wanting to go swimming these past few days, so how about we go check it out?"

Tom tilted his head and looked at Shen An in surprise, as if to say, "When did this cat ever want to swim?"

The Shui Bing'er sisters stared blankly at Tom. Were they seeing things? Why were there so many question marks above Tom's head?

"Holy crap, these guys actually left the city! This is a golden opportunity!"

Outside Tianshui City, a person dressed in black robes, whose face was obscured, gazed into the city. He exuded a chilling aura, so much so that even the mosquitoes in the forest refused to approach him.

"Hehehe, it's much faster to plunder Soul Masters from those three shady characters than to spend all day searching for them in the wilderness. If any problems arise, we can just abandon them."

"Ah, if only the Spirit Hall didn't exist," the man in black sighed again.

If it weren't for the Spirit Hall's attack on them, Wu Zhong wouldn't even dare to imagine how comfortable their lives were or how quickly their cultivation improved.

However, because of the existence of the Spirit Hall, they had to be careful even when "eating," and afterwards they had to dispose of the corpses.

They often have to move to a different location to avoid being targeted, since they can't "eat" many people.

Even someone like him wouldn't dare to enter the main city rashly, for fear of being detected by the Spirit Hall.

Like rats in a sewer, they dare not appear in the sunlight.

The higher one's cultivation level, the more this is true. After all, the evil arts are not yet perfect. The more people one devours, the more resentment one accumulates. Once one makes a move, it is extremely easy for a master to detect it.

After all, their soul power aura is too distinctive.

"Hmm? Why are those three people out here? No, wait, they're following that group ahead." Wu Zhong muttered to himself, a cruel smile appearing on his face beneath his black hat, like a hunter eyeing his prey.

“I know dogs can swim, but this is the first time I’ve heard of cats swimming,” Shui Bing’er said curiously.

Tom raised his head dismissively, "That's because you're ignorant. Cats can do a lot of things: breaststroke, butterfly stroke, freestyle, doggy paddle... cough cough."

In short, it can do everything Spike can do, and it can do things that Spike can't do.

Shen An walked ahead, going wherever there was a secluded and deserted place, until finally, he arrived at a completely deserted forest.

"Come out," Shen An said casually, picking up a green leaf that had fallen from the sky.

"Hey, you actually managed to spot us. I underestimated you."

Tianya and the others emerged from the shadows, staring intently at the Shui Bing'er sisters, while Bu Le stared intently at Tom.

Chapter 209 I've been too kind all along.

"I've been looking for you for so long! Today, I'm going to skin you alive, tear your tendons apart, and drink your blood!" Bu Le said, pointing a trembling finger at Shen An and the others.

Shen An was also puzzled. Did this person have a grudge against him?

But the next moment, Tom trembled and scurried into his arms, biting his fingers in fear. This man actually wanted to eat the cat! How terrifying!

Jerry was trembling just as much as Tom was, as if he were glued to him.

Shen An understood then that this person was probably the lecherous thief that Xiao Zhu had mentioned that day.

However, Shen An wasn't too surprised that this lecherous thief not only survived but also came knocking on his door.

After all, Tom Jerry has never been seen killing anyone.

Shui Bing'er and Shui Yue'er exchanged a glance, and a total of seven spirit rings floated out from their bodies.

"You lot, you don't look like good people at all. Don't hurt Tom, and get out of here right now, or don't blame me for being impolite," Shuiyue said fiercely, but it didn't really intimidate anyone.

The goose, clearly indulging in excessive drinking and womanizing, said lecherously, "Hehehe, I'm not interested in that cat at all, but I'm quite interested in you. Come on, experience the pleasures of adulthood with your uncle."

Shuiyue looked at Ekao with disgust: "You disgusting thing that makes people want to vomit just by looking at you, do you even deserve to be called one?"

Goose's face instantly darkened. The truth is often the sharpest knife, and the honesty is usually the most hurtful. He hated nothing more than people pointing fingers at her appearance.

"How dare a mere Soul Venerable speak to me like that? Today I'll show you how good I am! Brothers, let's go!" Goose said with a gloomy expression.

The three of them simultaneously unleashed waves of soul power.

A pink dome appeared on Bu Le's head, and Goose Kao's neck and beak became incredibly long. Feathers sprouted from its arms, and its belly was larger than that of a woman in her tenth month of pregnancy. Both of them looked extremely comical.

On the contrary, the most lewd of the three, Tianya Wuhun, was the most normal, carrying a short sword.

Shui Bing'er and her sister panicked instantly, because all three of them were actually Soul Kings.

All three of them have a combination of one white, one yellow, and three purple.

They even sensed soul power fluctuations close to Leng Yingqiu's from Tianya and Ekao.

Shui Bing'er thought to herself that this was a big problem. She knew that Shen An was incredibly powerful, but the difference between facing one Soul King and three Soul Kings who could cooperate was significant.

"Shen An, we should try to fight and retreat as much as possible to attract the attention of Tianshui City," Shui Bing'er said in a low voice.

"You Soul Masters who act recklessly because of your strength are truly disgusting." Shen An looked at the three of them with disgust, a murderous intent stirring in his heart.

He harbored ill intentions towards Zhu Zhuqing from the very beginning, and even after being taught a lesson by Tom, he showed no remorse whatsoever. Such a person truly deserves to die.

Perhaps, all along, I have been too kind, Shen An thought back to many things in an instant.

In this dog-eat-dog world, he has always been very kind. Even with his extremely high combat power and the Superman suit, a weapon that can bring nuclear peace, he has restrained his behavior and never kills easily.

Shen An slowly shook his head. He knew this wasn't right. Since he had come to Douluo Continent, he had to learn the rules here.

He will uphold his principles from now on, but he has decided to show no mercy to those who deserve to die.

"Pfft!"

Shen An channeled his soul power into the fallen leaf in his hand, and the leaf burst forth with unparalleled light, transforming into a sword beam that flew towards the group.

"What is this?!" Tianya felt the sharpness of the attack and hurriedly raised his sword to defend himself.

"boom!"

An ordinary green leaf collided with the short knife in his hand, and unexpectedly burst into incredibly brilliant sparks, which made Tianya's heart tremble.

"No, goose, this kid is no ordinary person, let's all attack him together."

Bu Le and E Kao also realized this, and simultaneously released their soul skills, heading towards Shen An.

"Go!" Goose shouted, flapping its two arms, which had transformed into wings, powerfully. Countless feathers flew out from its body, transforming into a white feather tornado that pounced on Shen An and the others.

Each feather was like a sharp blade, gleaming with a metallic luster, leaving a trail of destruction in its wake.

Shui Bing'er stared blankly at this scene. Wasn't the plan to fight and retreat at the same time? But Shen An seemed to be going to launch a full-scale attack on these four people.

However, she was quite calm and collected. In an instant, she used her second soul skill to coat everyone with a layer of blue ice armor, and then she was about to use her ice-sealing soul skill to control the actions of the three opponents.

Shuiyue'er's reaction was a step slower, but it didn't matter.

Because Shen An had already rushed out with the Nine-Leaf Sword Grass in his hand, followed by four soul rings—one yellow, two purple, and one black—a chilling aura permeated the entire scene.

Everyone present was shocked. The second spirit ring was a thousand years, and the fourth spirit ring was ten thousand years. This was simply beyond imagination.

Wu Zhong, who was secretly observing, was even more shocked beyond words, and his eyes blazed with intense greed.

'Such a powerful aura! It's truly astonishing. If I were to devour this person, how strong would I become? And could such a spirit ring be the result of a special secret technique?'

Seeing Shen An rush forward, Shui Bing'er became anxious. Those were three Soul Kings! How could she confront them head-on? The best approach would be for her to take control first.

With the characteristics of her top-tier beast spirit, the Ice Phoenix, even a Soul King would be affected. But Shen An rushed up there like that, wasn't he just throwing his life away?

"So what if it's a ten-thousand-year soul ring? We three Soul Kings can't take down a Soul Master like you!" Tianya laughed instead of getting angry when he saw Shen An charging towards him.

The three of them simultaneously used their fifth spirit rings without regard for the cost. They spoke fiercely, but facing Shen An, who possessed a ten-thousand-year spirit ring, they decided to play it safe.

Shen An looked at the three of them with the gaze one would give to a dead man, and his four spirit rings shone brightly one after another.

Chasing the wind and lightning!

Sword control!

Azure sword eyes!

Unrestrained!

The sword in his hand transformed into a vast expanse of blue light, illuminating all directions.

The sharp sword intent, the powerful sword momentum, and the boundless soul power were all concentrated in this one sword strike.

The group of people from Tianya attacked the sword light, but the sword light did not come in a straight line, but rather like a fleeting curve.

The three bodies fell simultaneously, silently to the ground beneath the trees. Their heads, which had been flung high into the air, looked at their headless bodies, a hint of bewilderment even in their eyes.

Why can a Soul Master's sword be so fast? Why can a Soul Master's sword be so sharp?

A bloody smell permeated the air.

Shen An even used his arm to cover Tom and Jerry's eyes; it was too gory, and it was better for children not to watch.

The Shui sisters stared at the scene with pale faces. Although their cultivation was not low, when had they ever killed anyone or witnessed such a cruel scene?

"A Soul Master with such combat power is truly an eye-opener for me."

"But kid, these three are my men. You killed them like this, don't you have an explanation for that?"

"Tell me your method of absorbing spirit rings from higher levels, and I might let you go."

A sorcerer shrouded in a black robe emerged, utterly shocked. Shen An's speed and attack had just unleashed a sense of threat even to this Soul Saint.

Killing three Soul Kings with a single sword strike required even his full strength, which made him somewhat wary.

However, this attack consumed a considerable amount of soul power. He was now nothing more than a lamb to the slaughter, Wu Zhong thought to himself.

Shen An looked at the newcomer indifferently. With his enhanced perception through his Azure Sword Eyes, he had already discovered the person hiding in the shadows.

Unexpectedly, this person came out so quickly, as if afraid he would run away.

"A dying man dares to make demands." Shen An flashed and handed Tom and Jerry to Shui Bing'er, then transformed into a sword light and attacked Wu Zhong.

Wu Zhong never expected that Shen An would start a fight without warning, and that the speed at which he attacked was in no way inferior to that of Zhan Tianya and the other two.

'No, this place isn't far from Tianshui City. I need to finish this quickly, or I'll attract a Soul Saint-level expert,' Wu Zhong thought to himself.
