Eat Little Almonds
Chapter 134 Tang Lan's Calculation
Inside the secret chamber beneath the Tihun (Soul Cleansing) Ancient Mansion.
Two groups of people were facing off. Cao Shao and his men were holding Tang Lan and Qin Qianxue hostage.
While Qiao Yu and his group were holding the old man hostage.
"Cao Shao, what exactly are you and Wu Chengfu trying to do?" Mi Yuan questioned sharply.
"That's none of your concern. Hurry up and hand over the old man!" Cao Shao revealed a fierce expression.
"Sister Mi Yuan, the real Wu Chengfu and Cao Shao should already be dead. I don't know what these things in front of us are."
Qiao Yu's eyes narrowed slightly.
Mi Yuan's pupils constricted. She remembered when she was possessed by an evil spirit. Could it be that Cao Shao and Wu Chengfu were also...
"You really think I wouldn't dare to do anything?"
A flash of light, and Cao Shao slashed Qin Qianxue's thigh with his blade. Fresh blood immediately stained half of Qin Qianxue's thigh red.
She trembled slightly in pain, but she bit her silver teeth tightly, refusing to make a sound.
"Okay, we agree to exchange."
Qiao Yu carried the old man forward. The old man was still coughing up blood, but he couldn't stop the smile on his face.
"Alright! I'll count to three, and we'll let go together." Cao Shao licked his lips.
"Three!"
"Two!"
"One!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Cao Shao pushed Qin Qianxue over, and Qiao Yu threw the old man over.
Although Qin Qianxue's mouth was blocked, she kept winking at Qiao Yu.
Qiao Yu's heart tightened. He reached out and pulled Qin Qianxue to the side, and then a cold light burst out from behind Qin Qianxue.
Qiao Yu punched the cold light, knocking it back.
If Qin Qianxue hadn't winked at him, Cao Shao's knife would probably have pierced them both.
"Huh?"
Cao Shao was a little surprised, seemingly not expecting Qiao Yu to react.
"Never mind them, put that woman on the altar, quickly!"
The old man urged Wu Chengfu.
Wu Chengfu nodded and walked towards the altar with Tang Lan.
"Stop!"
Mi Yuan wanted to stop them, but she had just been injured, and the excessive blood loss greatly reduced her combat power.
She stubbornly propped her broadsword on the ground, refusing to let her body fall, and stared at Wu Chengfu intently.
"Hahaha, you think you can stop me! Impossible!"
The old man laughed wildly, and Cao Shao also stood in front of Qiao Yu to prevent him from saving Tang Lan.
Wu Chengfu climbed onto the altar, and the black shadows screamed even more shrilly.
He lifted the petite Tang Lan, preparing to throw her down. The old man in the back was filled with desire in his eyes.
Just as Wu Chengfu let go, Tang Lan's eyes suddenly opened!
Several tree vines burst out from her body, attacking Wu Chengfu.
Wu Chengfu's reaction was also extremely fast. From above, he stabbed towards the top of Tang Lan's head.
But with calculation against carelessness, Tang Lan was still one step faster than him. The thick tree vines pulled hard, and Wu Chengfu fell forward.
And Tang Lan twisted her body, instantly transforming into Wu Chengfu, who fell onto the altar.
The old man was stunned, and Mi Yuan and Qin Qianxue were also stunned.
"Ah!!!"
Wu Chengfu let out a scream that didn't sound human, but no one could save him.
The black shadows let out shrill screams, and then pounced on Wu Chengfu one after another like hungry tigers.
The black shadows devoured Wu Chengfu in large gulps, and Wu Chengfu soon couldn't scream anymore.
In less than five minutes, he didn't even have a bone left.
After Wu Chengfu's body was eaten, the runes on the altar lit up again, and a rich and pure energy radiated from the altar.
"Quick, take me over there, take me over there!"
The old man urged Cao Shao anxiously. Cao Shao carried the old man on his back and was about to rush towards the altar.
"Kid, stop them."
Tang Lan's voice rang in Qiao Yu's heart, and at the same time, the wooden seed in his chest began to ache faintly.
"Damn it."
Qiao Yu hated this feeling of being coerced, but he still had to stand in front of Cao Shao.
"Get out of the way!"
Cao Shao slashed at Qiao Yu with his blade, and Qiao Yu blocked with his fist.
At the same time, the energy radiating from the altar began to enter Tang Lan's body.
The aura emanating from Tang Lan's body also became stronger and stronger.
Even Qiao Yu was a little shocked. Apart from killing monsters and grinding dungeons to become stronger, could there actually be an evil method of sacrificing other players to become stronger?
"Hurry up and rush over!"
The old man was anxious. His eyes were red as he stared at Tang Lan, as if he couldn't wait to swallow Tang Lan in one gulp.
Cao Shao couldn't beat Qiao Yu for a while. In desperation, he directly threw the old man over!
The old man rolled directly under the altar. He stood up, his aged face full of hideousness.
Covered in wounds, he seemed to have a sudden burst of energy, leaping directly onto the altar.
Tang Lan glanced at the old man, not taking him to heart at all, and continued to absorb the energy radiating from the altar.
"Stop! You bitch!"
The old man struck Tang Lan with a palm, but Tang Lan didn't move. Then, several tree vines bound his hands and feet.
The old man, who had been so high-spirited, was now tied up like a pig to be slaughtered.
With a snap of a tree vine, the old man's body rolled to the center of the altar.
The black shadows instantly pounced on him again, beginning to feast, and blood flowed along the grooves of the altar.
The old man was dead, but his eyes were as wide as copper bells, staring intently at Tang Lan.
The energy radiating from the altar was even richer than before.
Qiao Yu's Adam's apple couldn't help but bob up and down. He discovered that neither Wu Chengfu's nor the old man's body had turned into starlight.
This also meant that they did not return to the safe town to revive, but truly died on that altar!
What the hell was that altar?
After the old man died, Cao Shao's state clearly became a little strange.
He sometimes giggled foolishly, sometimes became manic, and then he rushed towards the altar like a madman.
"What are you doing? Why don't you stop him?"
Tang Lan scolded sharply. The look in her eyes towards Qiao Yu already carried a hint of killing intent.
Qiao Yu remained silent, feeling that letting Tang Lan continue to absorb that energy was not a good thing.
Cao Shao rushed onto the altar, raising his knife and slashing at Tang Lan. Tang Lan didn't fight him, but just kept dodging.
However, her act of absorbing that energy could only be interrupted.
Cao Shao didn't notice that a vine had unknowingly wrapped around his ankle.
Then the vine pulled back, and Cao Shao fell backwards towards the altar.
At the critical moment, Cao Shao reached out and grabbed towards Tang Lan's head.
With a forceful tug, a human skin mask fell off Tang Lan's body, revealing a delicate face with a hint of enchanting beauty.
That face seemed to evoke humanity's most primitive desires with just a single glance.
Having grabbed nothing, Cao Shao desperately grabbed the edge of the altar to avoid falling.
At this moment, he seemed to have regained his senses.
"Damn! What the hell is this place? Save me!"
Cao Shao shouted for help. Tang Lan walked forward with a cold expression. The oversized hoodie she wore had a different kind of charm to it.
A tree vine wrapped around Cao Shao's body, lifting him up.
"Thank you, little beauty, thank you."
Having just expressed his gratitude, Cao Shao didn't even have time to be surprised.
The next second.
Tang Lan directly threw him into the center of the altar. Cao Shao didn't even have time to scream before he was drowned by the black shadows.
That sight made Qiao Yu's heart turn cold.
