Douluo Continent: Starting with a Tom Cat

Strangely, he did not die; instead, like Tom, he put his dismembered body back together.

But then, hundreds of sword energies slashed at him. First, one sword beheaded Shen An, and then Shen An watched helplessly as his body was torn to pieces by the sword energy.

"Holy crap!" Shen An exclaimed, waking up in shock.

"Meow~" Tom pounced on Shen An, his face full of joy, and rubbed against Shen An.

Tom almost thought he was going to become a stray cat and lose Shen An, who was the best to him.

Just as Shen An was petting the cat, a figure carrying a fragrant scent pounced on him. It was Ning Rongrong, well, a little bit.

"Waaah, Shen An, you're finally awake! I was so scared! I thought I'd never see you again. Do you know how terrified I was?" Ning Rongrong said, her voice trembling with tears.

Shen An's heart softened. He inhaled the girl's unique fragrance and gently patted Ning Rongrong, saying softly:

"Okay, okay, I'm fine now, I even feel quite energetic. Did you guys give me something to eat?"

Ning Rongrong was reluctant to let go. When she saw Shen An being severely injured, her heart ached as if it were being torn apart.

She reluctantly let go of Shen An's small arms: "After you were injured, your father and the others were very worried. They even invited Aunt Tan, who is the most powerful healing-type Soul Master in the sects outside."

At this point, Ning Rongrong's tone became slightly unnatural: "Aunt Tan said that your constitution is very special, and you have the ability to heal automatically. Even without her, you will recover quickly."

"Isn't this great? What's with that look on your face? You're probably just hoping I'm doing well," Shen An teased, seeing Ning Rongrong's strange expression.

Ning Rongrong punched Shen An with her little fist, and it was surprisingly powerful, making Shen An choke.

"I thought Aunt Tan didn't want to treat your injuries, so I even had a fight with her. I didn't expect it to be true. You woke up in just one day," Ning Rongrong said guiltily.

Shen An couldn't help but smile, feeling both amused and exasperated. This girl was truly amazing to him.

"Your body is really special. Even if Grandpa Jian only uses his first soul skill, let alone a Soul Venerable like you, even a defensive Soul King couldn't withstand it," Ning Rongrong said, clicking her tongue in amazement.

'Is my body special?' Shen An recalled the inexplicable dream he had, in which he was clearly cut up but could still reassemble into one body, and even after his head was removed, he was still conscious.

This is clearly Tom Jerry's immortality! Could it be that the system gave it to me too? Thinking of this, Shen An felt a surge of excitement.

Shen An unleashed a surge of sword energy, cutting his fingernails before closing them again.

Holy crap! Perfectly aligned! I've succeeded!

Shen An stared blankly at his hands, then a wisp of sword energy surged forth, slashing his arm.

Ouch! That hurts!

Chapter 146 Before My Wife ~~cough cough

Ning Rongrong stared in disbelief as Shen An cut himself. Had he lost his mind in the fight?

Tom also touched Shen An's head with concern, and then pried open Shen An's eyelids, as if to examine Shen An.

The physical injuries have just healed, so why is the brain malfunctioning again? This really worries me.

"Go away, I'm just conducting an experiment."

Shen An pushed Tom away, staring blankly at his fingers. Something was wrong; his fingernails could close up, so they should have some healing power.

Shen An was puzzled. When he looked again, the bleeding wound had already scabbed over.

'This recovery speed is amazing.' Shen An was slightly surprised.

'Could it be that my constitution is special? But that doesn't make sense either; even with a special constitution, it's impossible to reattach lost connective tissue.'

Shen An fell into deep thought again. Why? Could it be that I only inherited some of Tom Jerry's regenerative abilities? But where did these regenerative abilities come from?

"Um, Shen An, why don't you put your clothes on?" Ning Rongrong's cheeks were flushed, and her big eyes kept glancing at Shen An's bare upper body.

Shen An stared blankly at himself, his strong chest, his solid and powerful muscles exuding strength and fluidity, his whole being radiating masculinity.

This is the result of repeated system refinement and absorption of soul rings, naturally optimizing the body.

"Ahhhhhh~" A sharp sound rang out, startling Shen An and Ning Rongrong.

Shen Anhao playfully slapped Tom, saying, "What are you yelling about?"

Tom chuckled sheepishly. Shouldn't people scream when they're naked? Last time Jerry took a bath, Tom accidentally saw him, and Jerry covered his body and screamed for ages.

Ning Rongrong rolled her eyes at Tom: "Shen An, are you feeling better? Do you need me to get Aunt Tan to treat you again?"

Although he was still a little weak, Shen An wanted to test his body's self-healing ability.

He rarely gets injured, so this is a rare opportunity for him to reflect on his injury and assess his condition.

He gently shook his head: "No need, let's go out first, don't make everyone worry. By the way, we've been gone for so long, how is Xiao Zhu?"

“I notified her early this morning. She arrived last night, and we’ve been taking turns watching over you.”

Upon hearing this, Shen An felt a warm current surge in his heart. He then turned to Ning Rongrong and said, "Well, I need to get dressed. Why don't you go out first?"

Ning Rongrong's face stiffened: "Hmph, it's not like I haven't seen it before. Fine, let's go."

Before leaving, a sly glint flashed in her eyes. As she got up to go out, she subtly grabbed Shen An's chest with her small hand.

"Hmm, it feels nice." Ning Rongrong's face flushed even more.

Shen An was stunned. When did this little girl become so bold?

......

Zhu Zhuqing, who was resting on the sofa by the door, was just awakened by Tom's scream. However, out of fear, she hesitated to push the door open and enter.

Please, whatever you do, don't let anything happen. Otherwise, I will spend the rest of my life seeking revenge on the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School. Zhu Zhuqing silently prayed to herself.

For a Soul Master to have such thoughts about a behemoth like the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School is so unrealistic, yet her resolve is so firm.

"Rongrong, how is Shen An?" Upon seeing Ning Rongrong who had just come out, Zhu Zhuqing quickly stepped forward and asked, her face full of caution, afraid of hearing bad news.

Ning Rongrong's face showed a hint of unease. She had completely ignored Zhu Zhuqing's presence outside when she touched Shen An's chest.

A thought of coughing in front of his wife flashed into Ning Rongrong's mind, but it also gave her a strange kind of excitement, 'Awesome!'

'Pah, who knows who will be the main wife in the future? Why am I having such thoughts of being subservient to someone else?' Ning Rongrong cursed herself for being so spineless.

"Shen An is all better now. He's inside getting ready and will be out in a bit," she said, trying her best to keep her tone calm.

"That's good." Zhu Zhuqing's tone was full of joy, then she asked suspiciously, "But Rongrong, why does your face feel so hot?"

"Haha, I'm just happy to see Shen An wake up." Ning Rongrong chuckled sheepishly.

Fortunately, there were Tuffy diapers. Shen An often stuffed his personal items into them, as the unlimited space allowed him to do whatever he wanted.

Dressed neatly, Shen An opened the door and went out, immediately finding a soft, boneless body in his arms.

"Shen An, I'm so worried about you." Zhu Zhuqing hugged Shen An tightly, as if she was afraid that Shen An would disappear if she let go.

"Xiao Zhu, don't worry, I'm fine," Shen An reassured her.

"Shen An, I'm sorry. Your sword intent was too strong that day, and I was simply too eager to try it out." Chen Xin also flew over on his sword and said apologetically.

At the same time, Chenxin subtly moved away from Tom, who was staring at it.

That seemingly powerless cat-like punch actually sent a Title Douluo flying without any resistance; it was simply terrifying.

Gu Rong has been laughing about this since yesterday, and even took the later disciples of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School to visit the human-shaped cave he smashed.

That's halfway up the mountain! Gu Rong led his disciples up to see it!

Enraged, Chen Xin wiped away all traces left behind with a single sword strike.

"It's not Senior Chenxin's fault. I learned a lot from that sparring match." Shen An's words were not just polite talk; he had indeed learned a great deal from it.

Shen An discovered a blade of grass sword intent that, after being baptized by the Seven Kill Sword Intent, became even stronger and more ferocious, perfectly embodying the principle of becoming stronger when facing stronger opponents.

Come to think of it, without this characteristic of becoming stronger when faced with a stronger opponent, how could a blade of grass possibly cut down the sun, moon, and stars?

Ning Fengzhi arrived at this moment, looked at Zhu Zhuqing nestled in Shen An's arms, and then at his daughter standing beside him, pouting, and sighed inwardly.

I think my daughter is completely hooked.

No wonder Shen An is such a prodigy. He comprehended sword intent at such a young age, and he is also handsome and has a good temper. It is inevitable that his daughter would be somewhat swayed by him after living with him for so long.

Ning Fengzhi did not object to Ning Rongrong liking Shen An, and even secretly hoped that the two could be together.

However, as the sect leader of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School, he absolutely did not want his most talented daughter to share the role of serving Shen An with other women.

"It seems I need to find an opportunity to give Rongrong a little pointer. There are some things you'll have to fight for in the future," Ning Fengzhi thought to himself.

Keeping these thoughts to himself, Ning Fengzhi smiled and said, "Shen An, you've just woken up, why don't you rest at the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School for a while?"

"Thank you for your kindness, Uncle Ning, but I am fine now." Shen An politely declined. Although the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School was very comfortable, Shen An still returned to his own little nest.

In this respect, Shen An and Tom are remarkably similar: they both value family.

“Dad, if Shen An leaves, I want to leave too. Being by his side gives me the motivation to cultivate,” Ning Rongrong quickly said.

Ning Fengzhi was speechless. "A daughter is like a tree that grows up and can't stay at home forever," he thought, "and she's not even grown up yet."

Chapter 147 Fighting Shrek Academy? Count me in!

Shen An still left, after having a meal at the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School.

Sect Master Ning was very generous; when he left, he gave Shen An a black card containing 500,000 gold soul coins.

Sect Leader Ning said casually, "It's just a few mundane things. I hope it can help Shen An avoid some unnecessary expenses in his life, so he can focus more on his cultivation."

Before Shen An could refuse, Tom grabbed the black card and pulled it into his arms, his eyes turning into the shape of gold soul coins, just like a money-loving little cat.

In Tom's view, Shen An was injured, so what's wrong with taking some money from him? Consider it medical expenses.

In the end, Shen An could only accept it with a smile.

"Shen An, why don't you want to stay at my house?" Ning Rongrong asked curiously.

“You said it yourself, that’s your home, not mine. I still prefer my own little nest, and I believe Tom feels the same way,” Shen An said with a smile.

Tom nodded seriously to the side. Although the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School was very large, it still preferred its own little home.

There's no place like home, no matter how good it is.

"But speaking of which, Xiao Zhu, are you going back to school?" Shen An asked curiously.

Zhu Zhuqing, who had been silently nodding to the side, suddenly stiffened. How annoying, why did this topic suddenly come up?

"Let's wait a while longer. I don't want to go back yet," Zhu Zhuqing said somewhat evasively.

She wants to improve her skills, but she doesn't want to leave Shen An's side. However, Shen An is unwilling to go to school with her, which puts her in a dilemma.

······

After returning home, Shen An comfortably lay down on the bed. It was so much more comfortable at home.

"However, my injuries seem to have completely healed. Although I have the healing from a support-type Soul Saint, the speed is too fast. Perhaps it is still related to my Tom physique, which has been weakened countless times," Shen An muttered to himself.

Forget it, I'll stop thinking about things I can't figure out for now; it's probably harmless anyway.

Shen An glanced at his reputation score and was pleasantly surprised.

Fame value: 97692

Shen An was secretly pleased. After being unconscious for half a day, his reputation value had actually reached such a high level again. That was really good.

Without the slightest hesitation, I started drawing, ninety consecutive times!

Ding! Congratulations on receiving 9 Small Soul Power Experience Packs.

Ding! Congratulations on winning Tom's Kung Fu Headband.

Ding! Congratulations on obtaining Tom's bullying shotgun.

Shen An curiously examined it: [Tom's Kung Fu Headband: Wearing it will temporarily grant Tom mastery of all Chinese Kung Fu for one hour. (Tom: I'll take on ten at once!)]

Tom's shotgun: Powerful, far surpassing a pistol, and comes with ten rounds; however, it might soften its barrel in the face of a strong enemy.

(P.S.: Tuffy's armory can restock shotgun ammo.)

Shen An stared blankly at his haul; he found it difficult to evaluate what he had acquired.

A headscarf that allows Tom to temporarily master all Chinese Kung Fu, but the upper limit of Chinese Kung Fu isn't mentioned, making it difficult to judge.

The other is a hunting rifle that bullies the weak and fears the strong. According to the description, it is strong against the weak and weak against the strong. In short, it's a useless weapon.

Shen An placed the two props directly into the diaper, and then came the exciting upgrade part.

One-click upgrade to 999? Cough cough, that's impossible.
