Douluo Continent: Starting with a Tom Cat

Page 119

All eyes immediately turned to Tom Jerry.

Tom and Jerry circled Hu Liena once, then the two little ones looked at each other in bewilderment. They had experience with out-of-body experiences, but how could they have an out-of-body experience?

The ghost was somewhat disappointed; it seemed to be just simple curiosity. 'Looks like I was really grasping at straws in my desperation. This soul-shaking problem can only be solved by myself; I actually thought this strange cat and mouse had a solution.'

But the next moment, Tom and Jerry's performance dazzled them.

The two of them actually started choking each other, their faces turning purple at a visible speed. Then, both little ones simultaneously tilted their heads to the side and died.

This? ? ?

Everyone except Shen An was shocked. What the hell was going on? Weren't these two under the same master? Why were they killing each other?

Then, something even more unbelievable happened.

Even the ghostly figure of Yueguan rubbed his eyes in disbelief.

Two illusory shadows suddenly appeared on Tom Jerry's body, then jumped onto Hu Liena and disappeared.

Ghost fell silent. He had died once in his childhood, but by chance, his soul was able to possess another body, thus awakening his martial spirit.

In a sense, his soul is his martial spirit, but he himself is a living dead.

'Could it be that these two soul beasts are in a similar situation to me, except that their souls can linger in the world for a short time after they die?' Ghost thought to himself.

As Tom Jerry's soul entered Hu Liena's body, the previously turbulent and strange energy seemed to calm down, and even Hu Liena's breathing became steady.

Ghostly figures and the others gasped in shock, even Yan, who had just boasted that he would teach Shen An a lesson, fell silent.

Is this selflessness? Giving up his own life for Hu Liena, whom he had just met, after all, the cat and the mouse had both died.

Hu Liena, who had just absorbed the spirit ring, felt a tremendous shock to her mind, as if her spirit was about to be shattered.

She was filled with remorse, realizing she shouldn't have been so arrogant as to absorb a soul ring across so many years.

But inexplicably, the mental shock subsided, and three figures appeared in his previously dark mind.

And they're all people she knows.

The cat and mouse she just saw, and the Crimson Fox she killed, were all small and illusory.

"Am I just under an illusion, or has my mind been so shaken that I've lost my senses?" Hu Liena murmured to herself.

Then, the cat and the mouse started fighting with the Crimson Fox.

The next moment, he was given a good beating by the Crimson Fox. The Crimson Fox punched the cat and kicked the little mouse, showing no less its might.

Tom and Jerry were also furious; these two were never ones to back down.

Tom pulled out a golf club, and Jerry pulled out a brick.

Having weapons makes all the difference; the Crimson Fox's figure became increasingly illusory as they fought.

In reality, in addition to Hu Liena's original two yellow and two purple spirit rings, a black spirit ring gradually became clearer from the illusory airflow.

As dusk settled, Hu Liena slowly opened her eyes. She had become a Soul King! Her fifth Soul Ring, sixteen thousand years old!

"Boy, your name is Li Feiyu, right? The Spirit Hall will always remember your friendship. We will give you generous compensation for the deaths of these two spirit beasts."

Yue Guan spoke solemnly at this moment.

Tom Jerry's "corpse" twitched its ears. What the heck? Is someone cursing us to die?

"Nana, you're alright, that's great."

"Yes, Nana, your future is limitless after absorbing the Limit Break Soul Ring. No one in the entire Soul Master world can match you."

Xie Yue and Yan both congratulated Hu Liena.

Once Tom and Jerry came to their senses, they angrily walked over to Yue Guan and poked her.

The moment he was pointed at, Yue Guan didn't even turn his head: "Old ghost, why are you touching me?"

"Chrysanthemum Pass, what are you thinking about? I didn't touch you."

The ghost said, completely bewildered.

A chill ran down Yue Guan's spine. If it wasn't a ghost, then who could touch him, a titled Douluo, so silently?

Yue Guan stiffly turned her head to look, her alluring face turning pale.

"My God, it's a ghost!"

Everyone looked over and saw that it was Tom Jerry, whom they had just thought was dead.

Tom and Jerry glared angrily at Yue Guan. "We helped you save people, and you actually cursed us to die? Bah!"

The two little ones simultaneously launched a spitting attack on Yue Guan.

Yue Guan blankly touched the drool on his face. Surprisingly, he, who was usually a clean freak, didn't feel disgusted. He coughed lightly and said in surprise:

"It's really strange. He wasn't breathing just now, but now he's alive again."

Wait a minute, Yue Guan, who was sizing up Tom and Jerry, quietly exchanged a glance with Gui Mei. Their eyes flickered, and it was unclear what they were thinking.

"So, it was you two little ones who just saved me, right?" Hu Liena stepped forward and smiled as she looked down.

Although it was a question, there was no hint of doubt in the tone, after all, the scene in his mind could not be faked.

Hu Liena's charming eyes held a hint of relief; she hadn't expected that her casual act of kindness would save her.

If Yue Guan had driven Shen An away and he hadn't been able to stop him in time, he would probably have been turned into an idiot by the shock to his soul.

Tom nodded his little head, stretched out his paw in front of Hu Liena, and said, "I've saved you, so it's not too much to ask for something, is it?"

Hu Liena stared blankly at Tom, wondering what he meant. At that moment, she looked exceptionally adorable.

"Oh, do you want something? I have lots of delicious food here." After a moment of surprise, Hu Liena took out various exquisite pastries from her soul tool.

Then Hu Liena slowly walked up to Shen An.

"Thank you for saving me with your two pets. My name is Hu Liena. If you encounter any problems in the future, you can come to the Spirit Hall to find me. Here is this token for you."

Hu Liena expressed her gratitude and handed Shen An a small, exquisite token.

Shen An reached out and took the candid gift, smiling broadly, "Since you're alright, young lady, then I'll take my leave."

Now that Hu Liena has finished absorbing the spirit ring, he quickly made an excuse to leave, as the scene of Tom Jerry saving Hu Liena was too bizarre.

This means that as long as one's physical condition can withstand the impact, the soul attack will not be a problem. This is undoubtedly a great temptation for a soul master, and he will not gamble that everyone is grateful.

"Wait a minute, kid."

Shen An's heart skipped a beat. So, he was going to be targeted?

"Is there anything else, senior?" Shen An turned to look at the ghost and smiled.

"Your cat and mouse are quite amazing. Why not join our Spirit Hall? You'll have everything you could ever want in the future," Ghost said.

This person's two pets were able to withstand the soul shock of a ten-thousand-year-old soul beast, and it seems that they themselves were not affected.

Bringing him back to the Spirit Hall would be a great achievement, but since this person just saved Nana, I can't very well force my way in. Ghost thought to himself.

Haha, not only are they eyeing Tom and Jerry, but they're eyeing me too. I'll refuse them first. If this old bastard dares to use force, I'll immediately use my kung fu headband to beat them half to death.

Then I'll immediately go find the Titan Ape. Whether I find it or not, once the time limit is up, I'll slip away from the Star Dou Great Forest. Shen An's mind raced.

"I have long heard of the Spirit Hall's reputation, but I am by nature averse to formalities, so please forgive me, senior," Shen An politely declined.

Ghostly Moon and Guan exchanged a glance. Their brotherly bond had run deep over the years, and they could understand each other's thoughts at a glance. The significance of the cat and mouse game was too great.

If they could bring him back, the next generation of the Spirit Hall would definitely surpass others, so they decided to forcibly keep Shen An.

The atmosphere on the field gradually became a little strange, and Shen An's heart was in his throat.

"Grandpa Moon and Grandpa Ghost, what are you doing? If he doesn't want to come, that's fine. There's no need to force him."

Hu Liena gave a coquettish laugh and stood in front of Moon Ghost Douluo, blocking their view of Shen An.

At the same time, he secretly gestured to Shen An, signaling Shen An to hurry up and leave.

Shen An was surprised; Hu Liena was indeed quite kind-hearted.

Yue Guan and Gui Mei exchanged glances, realizing that Hu Liena was trying to protect Shen An.

“Silly girl, Grandpa Ghost just wants to invite him to join the Spirit Hall. Although the method is a bit crude, you probably know what benefits joining my Spirit Hall brings.”

"Besides, that cat and mouse are too magical. They will have an unimaginable effect on the fresh blood of the Spirit Hall in the future. Don't worry, Grandpa won't hurt him."

The ghostly sound condensed into a thread, quietly transmitting the voice into Hu Liena's ears.

Hu Liena's expression froze. She understood that Ghost had made up his mind. If it weren't for watching her grow up since she was a child and for her being the Pope's disciple, Ghost wouldn't have done anything to her.

If a Title Douluo is determined to do something, how can she stop him?

"Li Feiyu, joining my Spirit Hall will only benefit you. Old Ghost and I, as Title Douluo, have extended invitations to you one after another. You won't refuse, will you?"

Yue Guan's tone was soft and gentle, but her words contained a hidden threat.

Shen An was utterly disgusted. The Spirit Hall was really unscrupulous. Wasn't this just like the story of Mr. Dongguo and the wolf, or the farmer and the snake?

Tom sensed something was wrong. They were going to forcibly take them to that organization called the Spirit Hall. Weren't they just cat traffickers?

Tom, who hated the cat traffickers to the core, took out his kung fu bandana and looked at Shen An. As long as Shen An gave the order, it would transform into a martial arts master and kill these ungrateful cat traffickers.

For some reason, both Yue Guan and Gui Mei felt a pang of heart palpitation, a feeling that made them very uncomfortable.

"Li Feiyu, come with me. Once we get to the Spirit Hall, you'll know I'm not trying to harm you." Yue Guan's figure blurred, and he was about to seal Shen An's meridians and acupoints to take him away.

"Senior, wait a minute!" Shen An suddenly had a plan that would allow him to avoid using the kung fu headband.

Yue Guan's blurry figure became clear again, and he said casually, "If you have anything else to say, say it since you saved Nana."

"I was fortunate enough to obtain my fourth spirit ring. If that person can defeat me, I am willing to go to the Spirit Hall with you," Shen An said, pointing at Yan.

The leakage of Shen An's aura will inevitably attract the Titan Giant Ape, thus driving away the wolf and devouring Hun.

He had kindly saved someone, only to be betrayed and blamed, which left him extremely upset.

Moreover, Yan has provoked him time and time again, so it would be a perfect opportunity to beat him up.

With that in mind, Shen An gave Yan a kind smile.

Chapter 216 Danger! The King of the Forest Strikes Again!

"Pfft, hahahahaha!" Yan laughed loudly without any attempt to hide his laughter. This person actually dared to challenge him.

Who is he? He is one of the Golden Generation of the Spirit Hall, and as long as he goes back with Hu Liena and Xie Yue this time, they will be awarded the Purple Record Medal by the Pope.

In the contemporary world of Soul Masters, Yan doesn't believe anyone among the young people is more outstanding than himself.

Yue Guan also smiled. He could tell that Shen An was very young, probably no more than twenty years old. It was truly rare and precious for someone of this age to have the cultivation of a Soul Master.

But if he were to challenge Yan, that would be overestimating himself, since Yue Guan is certainly not as good as Yan at this age.

"Okay, then I'll agree." Yue Guan said with a smile.

"Kid, I'll go easy on you since you just saved Nana." Yan casually stretched his limbs, his body crackling like popping beans.

Five powerful soul rings—two yellow, two purple, and one black—emerged around Shen An, accompanied by blazing dark red flames that suddenly erupted from his body, creating a terrifying sense of oppression.

"Then let me introduce myself. I am Yan, a level 51 Power Attack-type Soul King, with the Martial Soul of Flame Lord. From now on, I will be someone you can never catch up to, even if you spend your whole life!"

"Li Feiyu".

Shen An said calmly.

Hu Liena was initially worried about Shen An, but now that she saw Shen An only give his name, she felt even worse.

Given Yan's temper, he hates it most when someone dares to put on airs in front of him, and Shen An's actions will undoubtedly provoke him.

Hu Liena originally wanted to advise Yan to go easy on him, but she thought that if she spoke up to defend Shen An, Yan would probably become even more furious.

"Fine, fine. If he's about to hurt Li Feiyu, then I'll make my move immediately," Hu Liena thought to herself.

As expected, seeing that Shen An was ignoring him, Yan's flames surged even more intensely.

"You're very rude, kid. Well then, I'll teach you how to behave today!" Yan said fiercely, the air around him distorted by his terrifying heat.

Has anyone ever told you that your mouth smells bad?

Yan was utterly astonished; the voice seemed to be right next to his ear.
