Douluo Continent: Starting with a Tom Cat

Page 184

"Holy crap, how could you even lift that?!"

Qian Daoliu was dumbfounded. This was a divine artifact! No one other than a member of the Qian family or an inheritor of the Angel God could possibly lift it.

Okay, even if Tom is extraordinary and can ignore the limitations of the gods' power, this sword weighs 36,000 jin!

As Qian Daoliu watched Tom, who was swaying and wielding a seven- or eight-meter-long greatsword, slash at Jerry, he suddenly felt his worldview of over a hundred years collapse.

When Jerry saw Tom holding the knife, he swallowed hard. Realizing something was wrong, he quickly ran away.

Jerry ran ahead, Tom chased after him, wielding the angelic sword with golden flames flowing in his hand with great power.

Swish swish!

Tom slashed forward with all his might, and the golden sword light spread out for who knows how many feet. Jerry looked back and was so frightened that his whole body jumped out of his skin.

Qian Daoliu, who was in a daze, came to his senses and couldn't help but rub his eyes. What was that thing that just floated out of that little mouse?

Wait, now is not the time to worry about these things.

"Stop! Mortals cannot withstand the power of the Angelic Holy Sword. It will kill them!!" Qian Daoliu shouted urgently.

As for why he didn't block the sword, he wasn't stupid. The angelic holy sword had clearly been activated with divine power, and he would definitely pay a price if he tried to block it.

Bibi Dong has always been eyeing him covetously.

Tom, who had been blinded by rage, suddenly regained some clarity. Playing around was one thing, but if Jerry really died, he would never forgive himself for the rest of his life.

So Tom did his best to control the sword, which was originally slashing downwards, and made it rise upwards.

And so, the Douluo Palace, which had been passed down for countless years, opened up from the very center, with an incredibly smooth cut.

At the same time, the dazzling golden light, like the blazing sun, turned the night into day.

"Its daybreak?"

Walking through the city, Shen An looked at the surrounding scene with some confusion and said.

No, it was pitch black just now, how could it be dawn now?

Not only him, but all the powerful figures above the title Douluo level in the Douluo Hall sensed this sword strike that transcended ordinary people.

Even Qian Renxue, who was undergoing divine testing in front of the angel statue in the Elder Hall, suddenly opened her dazzling golden eyes.

"Why do I feel the divine power of the angels?"

She muttered to herself, but did not take any action. She was in the fifth test of the angels and could not go out without permission until she completed it.

Rumble!!!

The Douluo Palace had its own defenses, but these defenses were as fragile as tofu in front of the Angelic Holy Sword. The huge palace collapsed with a crash, and the surrounding rocks fell down one after another.

Upon seeing this scene, Qian Daoliu's face turned pale, and he silently shed two lines of tears.

He shouldn't have been so impulsive as to tease that cat and mouse; the Douluo Palace's reputation, passed down for countless years, was ruined because of him.

"What a tragedy!!!"

He wandered around and let out an angry shout.

Then the man, the cat, and the mouse were covered by the falling rocks.

The intense golden light and the deafening roar attracted the attention of all the powerful figures in Martial Soul City.

Wuhun City is built around a hill, and Douluo Palace is located at the very top of this hill.

At this moment, powerful figures emerged from their cultivation or rest, only to find ruins scattered across the hill.

No way, my Douluo Palace is that big?!

It is not only the tallest building in the Spirit Hall, but also the burial place of many Title Douluo, a sacred place in the hearts of all Soul Masters.

But now it's ruined!

It was destroyed right under their noses, isn't that a slap in their face?!

Most importantly, the Grand Elder has always been there. Who could destroy the Douluo Palace under the Grand Elder's watchful eye?

All the Title Douluos of the Spirit Hall turned ashen-faced, their hearts burning with boundless rage. They were determined to make the culprit pay the price!

Unlike the anger of the others, Bibi Dong, who walked out of the Papal Palace, looked at the ruins of the Douluo Palace on the hill and inexplicably laughed.

At first, he smiled slightly and was relatively restrained, but later he burst into laughter, clutching his stomach and completely disregarding the Pope's image.

Fortunately, there was no one else in the Papal Palace at the moment except her, otherwise she would have thought she was seeing a crazy woman instead of the supreme Pope.

A series of extremely powerful auras spread out, and a vast spiritual force combined to set up a barrier. At this moment, Wuhun City was only allowed to enter, but not to leave.

One by one, the titled Douluo transformed into streaks of light and leaped up, instantly flying towards the small hill.

Bibi Dong stopped smiling when she saw the light fall, tidied her slightly messy hair, and then flew to the Douluo Palace.

She's a bit crazy, but not stupid.

Although the Douluo Palace was reduced to ruins, which meant that Qian Daoliu had suffered a setback, she was very happy. However, as the Pope, she still had to maintain appearances, otherwise she might discourage everyone.

At this moment, the first person to arrive at the top of the hill was an old man dressed in a golden robe and silver embroidery. His whole body was covered with faint golden scales, but he did not move. He just looked at the ruins of the Douluo Palace with apprehension.

Five more figures landed.

"Second brother, what should we do now? Should we rush in?" the two brothers, Qianjun Jiangmo, asked.

"Don't rush, let's wait for Bibi Dong to arrive. The person who can destroy the Douluo Palace in front of Big Brother is definitely not simple. Fortunately, I can sense Big Brother's aura and he is not harmed."

The moment Golden Crocodile Douluo spoke, one figure after another descended, dispersing from him.

Even Ju, who was recuperating from her injuries, came.

"Bibi Dong is really arrogant. As the Pope, she didn't even come immediately after such a serious incident involving the damage to the Douluo Palace. Does she even care about the Spirit Hall?"

Golden Crocodile rebuked him without any politeness.

"Why are you in such a hurry, Second Elder? I was just afraid the thieves would escape, so I took a stroll around Wuhun City."

Bibi Dong suddenly appeared in front of all the Title Douluos, like a natural leader.

Golden Crocodile Douluo's eyelids twitched. He realized that he could no longer discern Bibi Dong's true strength, which meant that even if Bibi Dong was not as good as him, she was not far off.

"Brother is right, that woman is indeed exceptionally talented. However, given what happened back then, we absolutely cannot let her continue to control the Spirit Hall. Fortunately, we still have our young master."

Golden Crocodile Douluo's Secret Passage.

Bibi Dong scanned the ruins before her with her mental power, and a look of disappointment suddenly appeared on her beautiful face. In her perception, Qian Daoliu was still full of life.

How disappointing! Why is it taking so long to come out?

Qian Daoliu, lying beneath the ruins, was completely numb. He felt ashamed to face his ancestors, for the Douluo Palace had been destroyed by his own hand.

In the dark ruins, Tom and Jerry were hugging each other, realizing they had caused trouble. What were they going to do?

Bibi Dong reached out her hand forward, and huge rocks floated away. Tom Jerry was so frightened that he burrowed deeper into the rocks and ended up right in front of Qian Daoliu.

In the darkness, the two of them couldn't see Qian Daoliu clearly, but Qian Daoliu could see him very clearly. A cat and a mouse, wearing a dog's head made them look like real dogs. Damn it, he couldn't see any flaws.

More rocks flew upwards.

Qian Daoliu's lips twitched as he came to his senses. Hiding wasn't a solution; he had to face it eventually.

He appeared before everyone in a flash, but his once imposing figure now looked so desolate.

"Big brother, are you injured? How was the Douluo Palace destroyed? Did a powerful enemy attack?"

Golden Crocodile Douluo launched a series of questions.

Qian Daoliu looked at the starry sky with melancholy. How was it destroyed? By a powerful enemy? Well, it all started with a cat and a mouse.

But in short, it was because he had a bad habit of touching things.

Just as Qian Daoliu was hesitating whether to speak, two figures, one large and one small, one blue and one brown, with dog heads on their heads, tiptoed away, preparing to slip away quietly.

You've already caused trouble, what are you doing if you don't run away? Are you going to stay put and get punished?

"There's something! Are those two?!" A silver-haired Title Douluo, whose appearance and voice resembled those of a young boy, shouted.

The Fifth Offering Light Feather Douluo, whose martial soul is the Longbow, naturally possesses exceptional eyesight when it comes to archery.

All the titled Douluos instantly followed the gaze of the Light Feather Douluo.

Tom Jerry froze, glaring at the Light Feather Douluo with ill intent, wishing he could take a bite out of him.

Qian Daoliu nodded and said, "It was those two who destroyed the Douluo Palace."

Chapter 286 The Pope's Emotional Outburst

Bibi Dong tightened her grip on the scepter.

Suddenly, she noticed something was off about the feel of the papal scepter. Her gaze swept over it and she noticed that the special material of the scepter had been slightly dented from her grip.

The papal scepter...

Family members, does anyone understand? A titled Douluo with strength at least level 98 or above has an extremely unstable mindset. If he's not careful, he might use all his strength to grasp it. Who can withstand that?

Bibi Dong was somewhat conflicted at this moment. She was quite pleased that the Douluo Palace had been destroyed, but with the two people in front of her involved, she couldn't laugh anymore.

This is the pet of the Tenth Elder, whom she just recruited today and intends to cultivate into a trusted confidant in the future.

In an instant, all the titled Douluo glared angrily at Tom Jerry, each one eager to grind his fists and reduce him to ashes.

"Alas, I am Yan Chixia. It was my fault for not disciplining my children properly. Please forgive me. I am willing to bear all the compensation."

Shen Anyi came out. He was the one who should take care of his own pets. If he didn't clean up their messes, who would?

"Pay? What will you use to pay for this? This is the Douluo Hall, the sacred place in the hearts of all Soul Masters. Since you have damaged it, you must pay the price with your life!" Guangling Douluo said bluntly.

Not only him, but none of the worshippers had any goodwill towards Yan Chixia, who was Shen An's incarnation.

Bibi Dong openly bestowed the title of Title Douluo upon Shen An in the Papal Palace, which was tantamount to seizing power from their elder brother, Qian Daoliu.

They were already eager to get rid of him, and now with the Douluo Palace incident, they were even more furious.

In other words, Qian Daoliu hasn't made a formal statement yet, otherwise they would have already joined forces.

Bibi Dong breathed a sigh of relief, thinking to herself that as the leader, she had to be able to take responsibility. She had just brought Yan Chixia under her command today, which was a perfect opportunity to win people's hearts.

Moreover, while others might see the damage to the Douluo Palace as an unforgivable crime, she saw it as an opportunity to become an enemy of Qian Daoliu and thus belong to her side.

However, Yan Chixia was a newcomer, and she was not clear about his background. She originally wanted him to do more for the Spirit Hall, and test and assimilate him little by little.

But now that this has happened, isn't the price to pay for standing up for Yan Chixia and confronting Qian Daoliu ahead of time too high?

For a moment, Bibi Dong was very hesitant.

Qian Daoliu, standing to the side, carefully examined Yan Chixia. He found it very interesting. Apart from his sword aura, this person was completely unlike Shen An, yet Qian Daoliu was certain that this person was Shen An.

After all, Tom and Jerry were raised by Shen An, and had no other master but Shen An.

As for why he couldn't tell, the disguise was so good, it must have been Tom Jerry who did it. The two of them put on the hoods right in front of him, and he couldn't tell after they were on.

However, why did Shen An infiltrate the Spirit Hall? There must be something fishy about it, the seasoned veteran Qian Daoliu pondered.

Every move in Wuhun City could not escape his eyes. He thought it was just a promising Title Douluo who had arrived, but he never expected it to be Shen An in disguise.

"Great Elder, I feel there must be more to this than meets the eye. How could two little dogs possibly destroy the Douluo Palace?" Bibi Dong decided to test the waters by saying a few words first.

If Qian Daoliu insists on forcing the issue, then Yan Chixia will have no choice but to be discarded.

After all, the divine test is the most important thing; everything else is just icing on the cake.

The Golden Crocodile Douluo shouted from the side, "Bibi Dong, what do you mean by this? Why are you protecting the culprit who destroyed the Douluo Palace? Brother, give the order, and I will kill them all, dog and all!"

"You dare! I am the current Pope. Without me, no one can lay a hand on Yan Chixia!"

Bibi Dong's face darkened.

"Heh." Golden Crocodile scoffed disdainfully. This crazy woman really can't tell the difference between the king and the queen.

"Pope? If it weren't for my elder brother's support back then, could you have become Pope with only the Soul Douluo level? Let me tell you, this Spirit Hall is not your Spirit Hall, but the Spirit Hall of the Qian family!"

"You are nothing but a puppet pushed to the forefront. Even without you, the Spirit Hall is still the strongest force in the world."

Bibi Dong was as deep and unfathomable as a well, and in the depths of her eyes lay a madness of extreme insanity.

Through her many years of hard work, she has made the Spirit Hall grow stronger and stronger, and she herself is hailed as the most powerful pope in history.

In the mouth of Golden Crocodile Douluo, she was like a mascot, and it made no difference whether she was there or not.

There's also the support of Qian Daoliu behind her, otherwise she wouldn't be able to win over the masses.
