Douluo Continent: Starting with a Tom Cat

Page 111

Suddenly, Shen An exerted force with his long, slender fingers, lifting Tian Tieshan up abruptly, while simultaneously twisting his wrist sharply.

Under this immense force, Tian Tieshan was spinning uncontrollably in the air.

Shen An looked at it indifferently, then raised his hand high and slammed it down hard.

"boom!"

As Tian Tieshan's body crashed down, the ground instantly collapsed, Tian Tieshan's chest caved in, and he spat out mouthfuls of blood desperately.

"Spare me! Spare me, my lord!"

Shen An remained expressionless. A scumbag like this, who would even lay a hand on a little girl, deserved to be beaten no matter what.

Shen An raised his right foot again and stomped heavily on his dantian. At the same time, a sword aura struck in and tore his meridians apart.

"Pfft~"

Another mouthful of blood spurted out. Shen An slightly turned his head to avoid it; being splattered with the blood of this kind of person would make him feel disgusted.

Tian Tieshan was completely speechless at this moment, only staring at Shen An with resentful eyes.

His soul power was destroyed, and he would be a cripple from now on, even worse than an ordinary person.

Shen An lifted his foot and stopped looking. For this kind of person, destroying his martial spirit would be more painful than killing him.

Shen An turned to look at Shui Yu'er and said softly, "What's your name? Why are you here all alone?"

Shui Yu'er said softly, "My name is Shui Yu'er. Thank you for saving me. You are so kind. I will ask my sisters to repay you."

Shen An's eyes flickered slightly. Shui Yu'er, Shui Bing'er, Shui Yue'er, it can't be such a coincidence, can it?

Shui Yu'er's eyes lit up as she tilted her head and asked, "Can I pet this cat? It's so cute!"

Shen An smiled: "You'll have to ask it if it's willing."

Tom looked at Shuiyuer, who was a head taller than her, and burst out laughing. Such a small kid trying to touch her.

"Kitty, may I pet you?"

Upon hearing Shui Yu'er's words, Master Tang gave a wicked smile and reached out his cat paw to pinch Shui Yu'er's little face.

Today's achievement: petting a human cub. So happy.

Chapter 204 Mice are afraid of cats, that's a rumor (5000 words)

In an elegant teahouse in Tianshui City.

Shen An was gently sipping his tea; of course, it was regular tea, not milk tea.

“I heard from my sister, Shen An, that you saved her. I must repay you. What do you think about repaying me with my body?”

Shuiyue'er's eyes shone brightly; she felt as if it were an arrangement by heaven, and that she and Shen An were so destined for each other.

Shui Yue'er's burning gaze made Shen An feel extremely uncomfortable; she was too enthusiastic, almost unbearable.

"Is Shui Yu'er your sister? Your biological sister?" Shen An put down his teacup without changing his expression and changed the subject.

"She's my mother's sister's daughter. Oh dear, it's complicated. What do you think of my suggestion? I'm very serious about it."

Shuiyue'er said with eyes full of anticipation.

Shuiyu'er was petting the cat, and of course, the cat was petting her in return. The two were having a great time playing together.

Jerry ate his snacks with a sullen expression. "How annoying! Why does everyone like cats? Aren't mice cute too?"

"Then why did you bring Shui Yu'er to the outside of the city and leave her alone at the city gate?"

Shen An ignored Shui Yue'er's gaze and changed the subject again.

Shuiyue'er looked a little embarrassed, her youthful face showing a hint of shyness: "I just bought her some candied hawthorns, and they were quite delicious, so I couldn't resist queuing up to buy two more."

“Yu’er has innate soul power at level nine, and she can now obtain her first soul ring. I plan to take her to the nearby captive forest to hunt soul beasts.”

"Ninth-level innate soul power, what a talent!" Shen An sighed as he watched Shui Yu'er's little face being pulled and tugged by Tom like dough.

Of course, Tom's performance was even more exaggerated. His cat face was like clay, which Shuiyuer pulled and shaped into various forms.

The donkey, the cat, the little mouse, and Shuiyu'er were having a great time.

The Shui family has excellent genes. Shen An thought of Shui Yue'er and Shui Bing'er; each of them was an undisputed genius.

"Shen An, please, just give in to me, uh, no, let me repay you." Shui Yue'er said again when Shen An did not respond.

She subtly moved closer to Shen An; Shui Yue'er was a sucker for good looks, and Shen An's appearance perfectly matched her aesthetic.

He was elegant, otherworldly, handsome, and incredibly strong. Shuiyue'er even started imagining what to name her future children.

"Well, why don't you take Shui Yu'er to hunt soul beasts first? I think it's getting late, so it's better to go and come back sooner."

Upon hearing this, Shuiyue'er immediately realized, "Oh no, I haven't even gotten to the important business yet, and I'm only thinking about romance."

She was never very reliable to begin with, and this time she volunteered to take Shui Yu'er to obtain a soul ring. If they didn't succeed, she would be nagged by her father again.

"Shen An, I'm taking Yu'er to get her soul ring now. Remember to stay in Tianshui City for a few more days, and I'll show you around some fun later."

Shuiyue immediately grabbed Shuiyu'er's little hand and ran out.

Shen An smiled. This girl's martial soul didn't seem to be water-attribute; it was more like fire-attribute, so fiery and energetic.

After leaving the teahouse with Tom and Jerry, Shen An prepared to find a place to stay.

Since we're already here, we should at least go to the Great Soul Arena to make a name for ourselves and experience the local customs and culture of Tianshui City.

The afternoon sun was warm and gentle, and Shen An, who had just done another good deed, was in a great mood.

However, he discovered a small, dark cloud about his own height, and beneath it stood Tom, his expression somber.

Tom walked listlessly, looking preoccupied.

"Tom, what's wrong with you?" Shen An felt that he should pay attention to his cat's mental state.

Upon hearing Shen An's words, Tom awkwardly gestured, then his cat-like expression grew increasingly sorrowful, his large eyes becoming misty with tears.

She grabbed Shen An's leg and made a pleading gesture with her hands.

Shen An was speechless. The cat thought he was going to abandon it and run away with Jerry. It turned out that Tom had sensitive skin.

They grabbed Tom's cat face and kneaded it into various shapes.

"You silly cat, we didn't leave you behind at all. You drove off and left Jerry and me behind, making us run around for most of the day. We're exhausted."

Upon hearing this, Tom's cat face immediately lit up with a smile, then turned into an embarrassed smile, realizing that he had misunderstood.

Jerry, standing nearby, slapped his thigh and laughed loudly. Look at Tom's cowardly cat-like appearance, it's absolutely hilarious!

Tom immediately glared at it with hostility, and sharp cat claws instantly sprang from his fingertips. He was about to strike, but then stopped after thinking for a moment.

Tom, feeling guilty for abandoning Jerry, decided to let him go.

Shen An, who was initially slightly nervous, relaxed. This was on the street; let's not cause any trouble.

Suddenly, a group of beautiful young girls in sky-blue school uniforms appeared on the side of the street and exclaimed in surprise.

"Look, there's a cat and a mouse! But why isn't the little mouse running away? Isn't it afraid of the cat?"

Jerry's ears twitched. He was very unhappy about the saying that mice are afraid of cats.

It's the weakest member of the family, so it doesn't bully the cats at will.

Shen Anxin clenched her fist, realizing something was wrong. With Jerry's fiery temper, how could he tolerate being called a mouse afraid of a cat?

Sure enough, the next moment, Jerry's mouse eyes swept over the group of young and beautiful girls. Today, it was going to change everyone's perceptions.

The idea that mice are afraid of cats is a myth.

What's so scary about a kitten?

Summoning my courage, I knocked the cat down.

Age-old prejudices must be overthrown.

Jerry clenched his fists, walked to Tom's feet, lifted Tom high in the air, and then threw him far away.

Tom was wondering why he had suddenly been lifted into the air, and then whooshed away, instantly smashing into pieces.

Along the way, Jerry bumped into several vendors, and then casually picked up a tomato from a stall and accurately threw it at Tom's handsome face.

"Hahahaha"

Seeing Tom so easily defeated by him, Jerry laughed heartily.

He then walked smugly up to the group of girls, gave himself a thumbs-up, and said, "Little kitten, what's there to be afraid of?"

The female students from Tianshui College looked at Jerry in amazement and exclaimed in unison, "Wow, you're amazing!"

"Yes, you are the most amazing little mouse we have ever seen."

"Still the cutest little mouse."

With each compliment from these beautiful girls, Jerry's face turned redder, and his little tail wagged faster and faster, turning into a propeller.

By the end, Jerry's face was so red it was practically steaming, and he was so flattered that he practically floated into the air, spiraling upwards.

Shen An hurriedly took out gold soul coins and gave them to the vendors who had been knocked down, giving them more than they should have, since it's not easy for ordinary people to earn money.

As soon as he turned his head, he saw Jerry, who was completely oblivious, and the girls with surprised expressions.

Shen An's lips twitched; Jerry was clearly being manipulated.

I never imagined that such a small city like Tianshui would have so many girls who are experts in mouse psychology, or rather, child psychology.

Xuewu looked at Jerry in amazement. What an amazing little mouse! It can fly by simply rotating its tail.

Tom, who had collapsed on the stall, shook his head vigorously to wake up and glared angrily at Jerry. This was simply too much of a bullying for a cat!

Grabbing the iron shovel beside him, he charged towards Jerry's back, swinging it upwards, horizontally, and downwards, the shovel swung powerfully behind Tom.

Jerry, who was facing Xue Wu and the others, seemed to have eyes in the back of his head. He immediately started moving around like a pro, striking a series of flamboyant poses. Tom was panting heavily from the fight, but he still couldn't touch him.

Jerry didn't even look at it, and directly braced himself on the iron shovel with one hand. Tom tried to pull it up with both hands, but the iron shovel was bent and he just couldn't pull it out.

Finally, Jerry calmly loosened his grip.

"bang"

Tom, who was using all his strength, was repeatedly hit on the head by the vibrating iron shovel, and his face was turned into a square.

"Pfft, hahaha." Xuewu and the others covered their mouths and burst into laughter. This was too funny!

Jerry glanced back at Tom. "Little kitten, take her."

Then the mouse wagged its little tail and quickly snuggled close to Xuewu's arm, giving her an elegant hand kiss. It loves people who compliment it the most.

Xuewu laughed so hard she was shaking with joy. She never expected that taking her junior out for a walk would lead to encountering such an interesting little mouse.

This level of wonder is almost on par with the cat-and-mouse musician that Shuiyue'er mentioned.

Tom, having regrouped, pounced on Jerry again. Shen An watched the two little ones fighting and felt helpless.

The two of them fought so fiercely that they created a small whirlwind, and even if he wanted to intervene, he couldn't.

Soon, the small whirlwind traveled further and further along the street. Many pedestrians dodged it, but many more roadside vendors were caught off guard and their goods were blown to pieces.

Shen An had no choice but to follow, scattering coins along the way, instantly filling the street with the color of gold soul coins.

"Hey, you guys?"

Xue Wu reached out in the direction Shen An had left, a hint of regret on her pretty face. She wanted to get to know this amazing cat and mouse duo better.

Unfortunately, Shen An has already disappeared without a trace.

......

"You two, you've already fought, now I'm going to find a hotel, so behave yourselves," Shen An said seriously, pointing at Tom and Jerry.

God knows how many gold soul coins he scattered today, all of which were used to clean up the mess left by those two little ones.

It even alarmed the city guards, who were about to arrest them, but in the end, Shen An revealed his identity as a Soul Master, and the matter was finally resolved.

Tom and Jerry nodded seriously and even raised their little paws, looking like they were making a vow.

"Sigh, never mind, let's go, let's go." Seeing how serious the two little ones looked, Shen An decided to believe them for the time being.

Tom and Jerry's assurance should be credible, right... right...?

And so, Shen An took Tom and Jerry to find a suitable hotel, walking and looking around along the way.
