Douluo Continent: Starting with a Tom Cat

"I'm giving you one last chance to bring Na'er back, or you'll die!"

Shen An's gaze was icy, like that of a god, and his words were like divine swords, completely weakening the Silver Dragon King's fighting spirit.

But then, the Silver Dragon King unexpectedly showed a look of joy.

The Silver Dragon King looked up at the sky and sensed the power of the Golden Dragon King!

Moreover, it possesses only pure divine power, without consciousness!

Isn't this like a windfall?!

The chance to turn the tide has arrived!

Chapter 338 Oh no, the pancake wasn't meant to hit her!

Dragon God above, it turns out that pie really does fall from the sky!

The Silver Dragon King was filled with excitement.

He could feel the Golden Dragon King's divine core hurtling towards him.

It contained another aspect of the energy belonging to the Dragon God, and was attracted by the power of the Dragon God within her, rushing towards her!

He and the Golden Dragon King were both formed from the power of the Dragon God, sharing the same origin. As long as she integrates the Golden Dragon King's divine core into her body immediately, she will be able to utilize it in a very short time.

Even if he couldn't perfectly utilize all its power and integrate it into himself, he could at least break through Shen An's sword energy cage and then leave triumphantly!

'Hmph, foolish humans, still dreaming of slowly boiling a frog in water! I'm waiting for the divine core, what are you waiting for?!'

The Silver Dragon King had already made up his mind that after this escape—cough cough, strategic retreat—he would find a way to recreate the power of the Dragon God from back then.

When she becomes a god-king, it will be the day of the great revival of the soul beast race, and Shen An, she will treat him as a servant!

Immediately, Shen An also sensed an extremely powerful divine force. In terms of its rank alone, this force surpassed the divine power of the Sea God and the Asura God that he had ever seen, and even the power of the angels who combined light and darkness was inferior to it.

He looked up and saw a golden meteor hurtling towards the Silver Dragon King from the sky.

Shen An's gaze remained indifferent. Although the golden meteor represented the power of a god-king and was extremely tyrannical, he didn't care.

Although I have set up nine layers of seals for myself, it is not a big deal to break one or two layers in a short time if something really happens.

Before Shen An could make a move, the golden meteor that was originally heading straight for the Silver Dragon King was about to crash into the endless cage formed by Shen An's sword energy.

The Silver Dragon King's gaze was even more intense; she was ready to work from both inside and outside to break Shen An's hold in one fell swoop.

As a result, a look of human-like bewilderment appeared on the dragon's face, and the golden meteor suddenly stopped!

It floated there, so fresh and clean, in mid-air!

"Come here!!!"

With a roar, the Silver Dragon King forced himself to endure the terrifying sword energy and charged forward despite his own severe injuries.

Shen An frowned slightly. He had never intended to actually harm the Silver Dragon King, after all, it was also Na'er's body. Unconsciously, the sword energy formed a circling pattern, surrounding but not harming.

But as the Silver Dragon King charged forward, she discovered that the golden divine core was completely unaffected by the dragon god's power within her, and it made a spiritual turn in mid-air.

Then it swooped down, heading straight for a cat that was willing to risk being buried to read a mouse's diary.

The Silver Dragon King's eyes widened in horror. Oh no, the cake wasn't meant for her!

Shen An looked puzzled. How should he put it? If it happened to Tom, it seemed both reasonable and unreasonable.

Then, a heart-wrenching meow echoed throughout the world.

"Ooh!!!"

Everyone who heard this felt a pang of sympathy; what a pitiful cat.

The Silver Dragon King seemed instantly disheartened; all hope was gone, this human was simply too strong.

Tom was completely bewildered by the large, rapidly swelling bump on his head. Who was throwing things around like that?!

Have they no sense of public morality at all?!

Fortunately, the cat was only angry for a short while before it put away the divine core and prepared to read Jerry's diary.

Above the sky, the Silver Dragon King also realized that Shen An had no intention of killing her. Just as he said, he only wanted Na'er to return.

“Perhaps we can have a talk now,” the Silver Dragon King said.

She was originally unwilling, and even lied that Na'er was just a memory, because she did not want to consume her own source power, since Na'er was from the same source as her.

Giving Na'er a body would be a significant drain on her, which would be extremely detrimental to her future great cause of reviving the soul beasts.

But things are different now. The Golden Dragon King's divine core has fallen into Tom's hands. If she can absorb the Golden Dragon King's divine core, then the power that Na'er has consumed will be nothing.

Moreover, the Golden Dragon King was originally sealed by the God Realm, but now his divine core, containing all his power, has fallen into the mortal realm, which means that there must be a major change in the God Realm.

Even the entire God Realm might go mad, so the Silver Dragon King must hurry to fuse with the divine core in order to protect himself and the Soul Beast race in the future.

"Sure," Shen An replied readily.

“I can separate Na’er, and even give her an independent body and personality, but you need to hand over the divine core you just obtained.”

“No problem.” Shen An saw the Silver Dragon King’s longing for the golden meteor, nodded in agreement, and then withdrew the sword energy that filled the world.

The Silver Dragon King reverted from his dragon form to human form and stared at Shen An incredulously: "No, you just agreed like that?"

"Otherwise what? I've already said I don't care about you, the only one I care about is Na'er."

Shen An said calmly.

"But if I get that thing, I will become incredibly powerful, and you won't be a match for me."

The Silver Dragon King said with a hint of competitiveness, as if what she considered a treasure was nothing in Shen An's eyes.

"Oh, I see."

"If you obtain her, you might be able to reach even greater heights!" The Silver Dragon King's vision went black, and he said defiantly.

"Alright, let's go. I'll have Tom give you your things."

The Silver Dragon King felt a tightness in her chest and shortness of breath, despite her near-god-king level.

This was something she had never experienced during her tens of thousands of years of slumber.

At the same time, he glared fiercely at Shen An, a surge of anger rising within him.

On the ground, Tom was reading Jerry's diary and laughing out loud. Jerry's diary was mostly filled with funny stories about the two of them.

But as Tom watched, he realized something was wrong. He enjoyed the beginning, which was a short story about Tom bullying Jerry on the golf course.

But later, Tom reaped what he sowed and was badly tormented by Jerry.

As everyone knows, Tom is a cat who cares a lot about his image, and this embarrassing incident made him furious.

Tom, still refusing to believe it, turned to a new chapter, and it was another story about its shameful deeds!

The third, fourth, and eighth entries, all of the diary entries, record Tom's embarrassing deeds.

Tom was furious, and it turned red!

Worried about Tom, Jerry tiptoed over, startling the little mouse so much that it jumped up, clearly frightened by Tom.

Then, Jerry saw Tom bar his fangs; Tom was going to teach Jerry a lesson!

Shen An and the Silver Dragon King obviously saw this scene as well. Watching the cat and mouse chasing each other, Shen An's lips twitched. He decided to ask the Silver Dragon King for something later.

After all, he couldn't afford to mess with someone in a red-hot state or a cat and mouse that were in a fit of rage.

What god-king, sword immortal, even the legendary Dao Ancestor might not be able to compare to Talking Tom and Jerry.

"Um, wait a minute, wait until they finish fighting, then I'll ask you for the divine core."

Shen An coughed twice.

Soon, the Silver Dragon King looked at Shen An with disdain: "Who is the master, you or them?"

Then, the Silver Dragon King watched as Tom Jerry passed directly through a high mountain, leaving two gaps the size of a cat and a mouse, and then a soft sound of a door opening came from above the clouds.

That was Jerry sneakily opening a door in the clouds! God, there's a door in the clouds!!!

The Silver Dragon King shouted in his heart, and saw the cat and the mouse chasing and playing around, ignoring gravity and their surroundings.

"Perhaps you are right." The Silver Dragon King recalled the fear he felt that day when he was dominated by Kung Fu Tom.

······

The scene above the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School also attracted the attention of countless people. Qian Renxue was also delighted to see Shen An, who was completely unharmed and even better than before.

But then a wave of melancholy washed over her; she didn't know how to face Shen An.

"Sect Leader Ning, I'm going back to Chang'an City now. The Star Luo Empire has announced its surrender recently, and I need to take care of that."

"If you see Shen An, tell him that I will not allow him to fool around with another woman under my nose."

Qian Renxue said coldly, and Ning Fengzhi was slightly taken aback before nodding.

Ning Fengzhi is a shrewd man; he wouldn't let Shen An mingle with others right under his nose, so it's fine if it happens outside his sight.

The empress eventually gave in; she couldn't let go of Shen An after all.

Ning Fengzhi chuckled inwardly; this kid really has a lot of charm.

Then he saw Qian Renxue transform into a golden streak of light and disappear into the horizon.

Suddenly, Ning Fengzhi realized that there was not only Zhu Zhuqing right under his nose, but also his daughter.

Honestly, if it were any other person, Ning Fengzhi would never have allowed his daughter to suffer, but unfortunately, this person is Shen An.

At such an age and with such achievements, there is no one like her in history, and her daughter still longs for Shen An.

If Qian Renxue tacitly agrees, wouldn't that mean Ning Rongrong also has a chance?

Ning Fengzhi's heart pounded. He decided that, for the sake of his daughter and the future of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School, he would offer some advice to Ning Rongrong.

To encourage her daughter to bravely pursue love.

······

Tom and Jerry finally quieted down, and Shen An successfully handed the Golden Dragon King's divine core to the Silver Dragon King. At this time, the Silver Dragon King had already gone into seclusion to prepare to separate Na'er and fuse the power of the divine core.

After receiving Ning Fengzhi's message, Shen An's eyes were filled with complex emotions. He couldn't help but curse himself for being such a scumbag, deliberately using tricks to force the women to acknowledge each other's existence.

He slowly exhaled a breath of stale air. Never mind, he had achieved his goal. Next, he needed to find Xiao Zhu.

His powerful divine sense swept across the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School in an instant, and he saw Zhu Zhuqing, who was sitting alone on the roof, gazing at a mountain forest, lost in thought.

He was certain that the girl had seen his battle with the Silver Dragon King in the sky and knew that he was in good condition.

The reason she was lost in thought was simply because she wanted to wait for Shen An to come find her.

Perhaps this was a little girl's last act of stubbornness.

The next moment, Shen An appeared beside Zhu Zhuqing.

"Zhu Qing," Shen An called softly.

Zhu Zhuqing bit her lip lightly, clearly conflicted. She was unaware of Qian Renxue's decision and feared that Shen An would choose Qian Renxue and abandon her.

Zhu Zhuqing did not answer, and Shen An did not say much either, but simply sat down quietly beside her.

As night fell, the sky was filled with twinkling stars, and the bright moon cast a veil over Zhu Zhuqing, making her appear like a goddess of serene beauty, pure and aloof.

"Are you alright now?" Zhu Zhuqing asked.

"It's nothing, in fact, it's a blessing in disguise, allowing me to reach an even higher level." Although Shen An usually tells the truth, he can occasionally tell a little lie.

A white lie is not a lie. You can't say that he pretended to be injured to gain their sympathy.

The brief exchange broke the deadlock. Zhu Zhuqing, with a hint of hesitation in her eyes, asked again, "So, have you made your choice?"

But all that followed was silence.

Zhu Zhuqing's large eyes reddened slightly, her gaze becoming watery and misty, and she felt an indescribable pang of pain in her heart.

"Okay, I understand. I will leave, and we will never see each other again." Zhu Zhuqing's tone was very desolate.

The aloof beauty suddenly stood up, ready to leave.

But he was stopped by a strong arm and could not move.

"No, Zhuqing, you've misunderstood. I don't want to make a choice. If you insist on asking, I only have one answer: I want them all!"

Shen An spoke firmly: Only children make choices; adults want it all.
