Douluo Continent: Starting with a Tom Cat

Page 159

What's even more crucial is that Shen An is merely a Soul King.

With such talent and combat prowess, if Shen An is not killed and allowed to grow further, Bibi Dong will be restless and unable to eat or sleep.

Without the slightest hesitation, Bibi Dong shook her scepter and personally took action, even as Pope.

clang!

A crisp sound of metal striking metal rang out.

An ancient longsword blocked Bibi Dong's path; the newcomer was none other than Jian Dao Chen Xin.

Bibi Dong was both shocked and furious. She then realized that the three Title Douluos who had been besieging Chen Xin were all injured.

"Chen Xin, does your Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School really intend to oppose my Spirit Hall?" Bibi Dong's eyes held a deep sense of apprehension.

Even before being strengthened by the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School, Chen Xin is already so powerful. If Ning Fengzhi were to intervene again, wouldn't he really have a chance to take Shen An away?

To be fair, she doesn't really want to start a war against the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School right now.

Admittedly, the Spirit Hall is not afraid of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School at all.

However, Bibi Dong preferred to wait until everything was fully prepared before wiping out all forces that were hindering the Spirit Hall, so as not to alert them.

Ning Fengzhi held the Seven-Jeweled Glazed Pagoda in his hand, and his voice, as gentle as a spring breeze, rang out:

“Your Holiness, the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School has no intention of opposing the Spirit Hall, but we have a deep connection with Shen An.”

"My daughter Ning Rongrong is deeply in love with Shen An, and the two have already pledged their lives to each other. I really have no choice but to intervene. I beg Your Majesty to grant me this favor."

"Yes, yes, yes, I have already pledged my life to Shen An. Shen An is a member of our Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School. Your Holiness, you can't expect the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School to abandon its own disciple, can you?"

Ning Rongrong, disregarding her embarrassment, immediately spoke up. She understood that her father was simply looking for a legitimate reason to interfere.

Zhu Zhuqing, standing to the side, instantly guessed the father and daughter's intentions, but still couldn't help but feel a tightness in her chest.

Tom and Jerry then crowded around Shen An, looking as if they were willing to live and die with him, even though they wouldn't actually die.

Na'er, who looked like a porcelain doll, also walked over with small, quick steps, holding a silver dragon spear that was much taller than her.

Dugu Bo silently stood beside Shen An, and Meng Shenji and the other two followed suit, shouting that a million-strong Heavenly Dou army was coming over.

The situation is now clearly polarized.

Bibi Dong sneered repeatedly. She naturally didn't believe Ning Fengzhi's nonsense, but she had no way to refute it.

The scene fell silent as everyone awaited Pope Bibi Dong's next decision.

Whether to fight or make peace, at this moment, rests entirely on Bibi Dong's decision.

Time flowed slowly, three breaths, five breaths, seven breaths...

Bibi Dong parted her lips slightly: "I forbid it! Today, everyone can leave, but Shen An is not allowed!"

At this moment, Bibi Dong was filled with murderous intent. She had given Shen An a chance, but Shen An did not agree.

Moreover, after witnessing how Shen An caused Tang Hao to lose an arm with a single sword strike, Bibi Dong was even less likely to let Shen An go.

Even though Tang Hao was focused on confronting them, it was still not something an ordinary Soul Master could injure, let alone sever an arm.

Putting everything else aside, even if you brought Dugu Bo, Tang Hao would at most suffer a broken arm.

Faced with such a peerless genius, a talent that appears only once in a millennium, even someone as proud as Bibi Dong lacked the confidence to control him.

Therefore, Shen An must die!

Chen Xin immediately held his sword in front of him. He was the most stubborn person. So what if the opponent had nine titled Douluo? He would just fight them.

Dugu Bo stopped one, and the three Soul Douluos stopped the other.

With Ning Fengzhi's assistance, coupled with his current soul power of level 97 and his superb swordsmanship, what's wrong with taking on seven opponents at once!

As long as the Limit Douluo doesn't appear, Chen Xin can be considered the strongest person on this continent.

Ning Fengzhi was in a terrible predicament. He only wanted to scare Bibi Dong, but he didn't expect Bibi Dong to be so eager to kill Shen An and directly confront him.

Ning Fengzhi was certainly not someone who feared death, but the problem was that the lives of countless disciples of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School were in his hands.

Sometimes, people in high positions are not in control of their own lives; their words and actions no longer represent only themselves.

Moreover, if he were to make a move today, could he really break out of the Spirit Hall?

He wouldn't doubt it if Chen Xin took one or two people with him, but Shen An, Ning Rongrong, Zhu Zhuqing, and others are all here.

"Uncle Ning, today's events have nothing to do with the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School. I will take full responsibility."

Shen An noticed Ning Fengzhi's predicament and immediately stepped in to speak.

How could he possibly make the whole Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School risk their lives with him?

"Uncle Ning, please take Rongrong and Zhuqing with you and leave. I have my own way of getting away."

Shen An turned to face the Spirit Hall members and spoke abruptly.

"Shen An, don't be afraid. My Heaven Dou Empire's million-strong army is not to be trifled with. Bibi Dong, you should think carefully about whether the Spirit Hall really wants to start a war!"

Meng Shenji forced himself to muster the courage to step forward and speak.

Bibi Dong scoffed, "I really don't believe that your Heavenly Dou dares to mobilize a million troops for a single Soul Master."

The Moon Gate Ghost and the others behind him also let out a sneer at the right time. If others didn't know, how could they not know?

The crown prince of the Heaven Dou Empire is the young master of the Spirit Hall.

Although Qian Renxue clearly has a strong liking for Shen An, they believe that when faced with matters of principle, Qian Renxue will definitely make the right decision.

Bibi Dong also lost patience. Her aura was locked on Chen Xin. Compared to Ning Fengzhi, who was burdened, Chen Xin was the unstable factor.

At the same time, he glanced at the people next to him.

Following Bibi Dong's instructions, Mo Xiong and the others launched an attack on Shen An.

Just as Chen Xin was about to make a move, he found himself locked onto by Bibi Dong. Unlike Dugu Bo, he was not unable to move.

However, if he were to lend a helping hand to Shen An, he would be met with a strong counterattack from Bibi Dong.

In that case, they will all probably die here today.

Shen An sighed softly in his heart. Time waits for no one. If he were given time and the opportunity to break through to the Soul Emperor level, then the current crisis would no longer be a crisis.

With a variety of amazing gadgets, there's no doubt that they'll be able to break out.

But there are no "what ifs" in this world.

Shen An's eyes remained fearless, and his mind made up its mind.

The sudden attack from the eight titled Douluo was too much for anyone to bear, as everyone felt that Shen An was in imminent danger.

Only Yu Xiaogang, who had woken up at some unknown time, was filled with excitement. Thinking it was a dream, he even pinched his own face, only to scream in pain again.

But the next moment, a deafening roar erupted.

A dazzling golden light suddenly arrived, firmly protecting Shen An, and the attacks of the eight Title Douluos could not shake him in the slightest.

Amidst the golden light, Shen An, who had just lifted the cat, was stunned.

There are more experts?!

Chapter 263 What do you know? She and I are true love!

"Meow~"

Tom, who was being lifted up by Shen An, tilted his head and cried out.

For a moment, Ning Fengzhi and the others fell silent. Why did you lift the cat up in this critical moment?!

To be buried with them?

Yue Guan and the others were extremely surprised and at a loss for what to do, as they were naturally familiar with this golden light.

The indifference that once clung to Chen Xin vanished, replaced by a complex expression.

Bibi Dong's confidence vanished completely, replaced by a gloomy expression.

On the entire continent, apart from the Grand Elder of the Spirit Hall, there is no one else who can match such strength.

"What exactly do you want! He is an enemy of our Spirit Hall!"

Bibi Dong shouted angrily at the distant Elders' Hall.

"Whatever the matter is between you and me is an internal affair of the Spirit Hall. If you try to hinder his growth because you are dissatisfied with me, you will regret it!"

"With his talent and combat prowess, he will definitely be our Spirit Hall's biggest rival within ten years."

Bibi Dong's face was ashen, her eyes were cold, and she held her scepter high in her hand.

She instantly realized that Qian Daoliu was trying to seize power ahead of time to pave the way for his granddaughter, seeing that her control over the Spirit Hall was becoming increasingly deep.

No one noticed that little Na'er's pupils had turned into vertical slits like a beast's after the attack, but thankfully they returned to normal after the golden light arrived.

A dazzling golden light appeared in the sky in an instant, so bright that its appearance was obscured.

The person was treading in the air without revealing any soul rings, yet he gave people a feeling of worship, as if he were a god.

The majestic, almost divine voice resounded in everyone's hearts, yet its words surprisingly carried a worldly air.

"So what? As long as my granddaughter likes it, that's fine. Today, none of you are allowed to touch him."

Everyone was instantly stunned.

Bibi Dong felt as if a tidal wave had surged through her mind, leaving her completely blank.

Does Qian Renxue like this?

What a joke! A political creature like Qian Renxue, who has been lurking for over a decade without making the slightest mistake, would actually fall for a man?

Shen An and the others were completely baffled. Who was his granddaughter?

Zhu Zhuqing and Ning Rongrong pursed their lips, especially Zhu Zhuqing, who was certain that Shen An had not been in contact with any other girls.

Besides the two of them, their only other good friend was Xue Qinghe.

Ning Fengzhi and the others were also completely baffled. The Grand Elder of the Spirit Hall actually had a granddaughter, and her granddaughter even liked Shen An?

Only Tom and Jerry exchanged a glance and winked at each other; no one understood better than the two of them.

Looking at the golden figure in the air, Shen An instantly recognized it as the person who had defeated Tang Hao that day. No wonder he had helped him scare Tang Hao away that day, and now he was even stepping forward to protect him.

Does he even know his granddaughter?

"Um, senior, if I may ask an inappropriate question, do I have a relationship with your granddaughter?"

Unable to contain his curiosity, Shen An asked.

Everyone fell silent. Good heavens, even someone as powerful as a god has come to your aid, and you, the person directly involved, still know nothing.

Qian Daoliu also glared at Shen An. It was infuriating that his granddaughter had her heart completely devoted to Shen An, and this kid didn't even know it.

Wait, it seems my granddaughter didn't tell Shen An she's a girl. Oh well, it's alright then.

Shen An couldn't help it

"Ah, you don't need to know, just remember my gift to you."

Qian Daoliu said indifferently.

Bibi Dong, standing to the side, was already horrified. Her daughter, Qian Renxue, had actually fallen for Shen An, which she could not accept.

She was abandoned by her lover and defiled by her teacher in her life, and never truly experienced happiness. So why should Qian Renxue get it?

An extremely subtle evil thought spread within her body, which made her mind increasingly twisted, but Bibi Dong herself was completely unaware of it, believing that it was all her own thought.

Subconsciously, Bibi Dong wanted to ruthlessly destroy Shen An completely, but when Qian Daoliu glanced over from the air, she stopped her actions.

Now, she has absolutely no way to deal with Qian Daoliu, a level 99 Limit Douluo who is known as invincible in the sky.

"Very well, then let the Spirit Hall be humiliated in front of the world. Not only will they be unable to keep Tang Hao, but they won't even be able to do anything to a mere Soul King."

"And all of this is because of you—the Supreme Elder of the Spirit Hall!"

Bibi Dong said angrily.

"I don't care," the golden figure in the sky replied.

They're just a bunch of ordinary mortals; what could they possibly compare to their own granddaughter who underwent the nine trials of the angels?

Shen An was slightly taken aback. How domineering! He had been indirectly saved twice.
