Chapter 42.3 (2/2)

Shen Yuan was here.

Shen Yuan actually came.

A moment later, Xiao Tangqiu noticed that Duan Hongzhen and Tang Mianmian had also come. Of course, the two women were there as well. All of them had survived.

Before he could quietly breathe a sigh of relief, Lippinobert smiled darkly at the people at the door. “You came just at the right time. I was starting to worry that there wouldn’t be enough sacrifices…”

“Fuck your sacrifices! Let go of my friend!”

Tang Mianmian didn’t wait for Lippinobert to finish his classic villainous lines before he cried impatiently, “Let Qiuqiu go quickly! Otherwise, I’ll smash all your puppets! You disgusting psycho with your freaky hobby!”

Lippinobert smiled sinisterly, “Don’t worry, you’ll soon be able to accompany my children.”

Xiao Tangqiu immediately shouted at the door. “Be careful! Don’t step into the array! He just used this array to devour all his puppets! He wants to sacrifice everyone to revive Lily Marlene!”

Tang Mianmian gasped. “You actually sacrificed your mother and daughter… You’re the ultimate psycho out of all the psychos, the number one, unrivalled psycho!”

Lippinobert laughed. The Ouroboros totem under his feet spread instantly, covering the entire church and leaving everyone with nowhere to run.

And the serpents also shifted their target and crawled towards Shen Yuan, slithering one after another. The dwarf puppet still hadn’t been completely devoured. Only half of its puppet body was left, but it staggered towards Shen Yuan and the others.

Lippinobert diverted his attention towards them, the serpents following his will. Xiao Tangqiu finally managed to escape and return to Tang Mianmian’s side.

Tang Mianmian quickly asked, “Qiuqiu! Are you alright?”

Xiao Tangqiu gritted his teeth. “Forget about me, it’s more important to deal with Lippinobert!”

Tang Mianmian looked at Xiao Tangqiu’s clothes. “Why have you suddenly turned into a woman?”

Xiao Tangqiu’s lips twitched. “Please focus on what’s important!”

Despite the grim situation, Tang Mianmian still didn’t forget to roast him, “Lippinobert has also turned into a woman. If I didn’t know any better, I would think he took you away to play some sort of perverted game…”

Xiao Tangqiu rolled his eyes so hard they almost rolled to the back of his head. But that was the end of the easy atmosphere, because in the next second, the serpents quickly crawled up to the front of them. He quickly warned the crowd, “Watch out for these serpents! They are very powerful…”

Duan Hongzhen smiled and assured him, “Don’t worry, we’ve dealt with each other many times.”

He seemed to be casually playing with the flying knife in his hand, but the look in his eyes and his expression gradually grew serious while Yu Fuling and Sai Lulu took out their weapons. Only Xiao Tangqiu and Tang Mianmian, who were empty-handed, had no choice but to watch.

In an instant, the serpents decisively launched an attack on the team. Duan Hongzhen, Yu Fuling and Sai Lulu immediately surrounded Shen Yuan, each person defending him from a different side.

They quickly drew the weapons in their hands, obviously tempered into the hardest steel by countless battles.

The serpents were beheaded one after another.

Xiao Tangqiu and Tang Mianmian weren’t at ease either, because the dwarf puppet started to attack them again with its shrill screams. They immediately covered their ears, but they were still hit by the aftermath of the soundwaves.

Blood poured out of Xiao Tangqiu’s ears in an instant. In the next moment, the dwarf puppet began to beat its drum.

With the rapid beat of the drum, Xiao Tangqiu was unable to control his body once again. He held out his hands, violently grabbing his own neck. The same was true for Tang Mianmian, who was struggling to grip his own neck, trying to choke himself to death. His whole face turned as red as pork liver.

The worst thing was that the dwarf puppet knew how to attack on both fronts. He began to beat the drum while screaming. Xiao Tangqiu grabbed his own neck against his will, so that he couldn’t cover his ears at all. His ears were exposed to the attack of the soundwaves as more and more blood poured out.

At the same time, he felt a metallic taste in his throat, blood began to flow out of his mouth and nose… If things continued like this, he would bleed to death out of his seven orifices and probably end up with his five viscera and six bowels ruptured like the middle-aged woman.

Xiao Tangqiu didn’t know why the dwarf puppet fought so hard. Clearly, it only had half of its body left and was going to be sacrificed by its owner, but it was still so loyal, wanting to protect his owner. Was it just like Lippinobert said – it didn’t have human emotions at all, so it didn’t care if it was abandoned and sacrificed?

Shen Yuan and the others felt awful as well. They were all frowning. Yu Fuling coldly looked at the dwarf puppet, drew her Tang sword and swung her blade.

She cut off the remaining arm of the dwarf puppet, and as the arm fell to the ground, the small leather drum dropped as well. The beating of the drum finally stopped.

Xiao Tangqiu was finally saved. He immediately took a big breath of fresh air, just like a drowned person taking his first breath.

However, in the next second, the dwarf puppet, who had lost half of its body and both its arms, still didn’t give up and continued to launch a scream attack on them. Yu Fuling cut off its head at once.

The crude puppet’s head fell to the ground, but the screams didn’t stop.

“The puppet is lifeless, and we all know what it really is. It’s useless to deal with it using the same method we use on human beings,” Duan Hongzhen said with a smile, turning to look at Shen Yuan. “Older brother, it’s your turn.”

Yu Fuling frowned slightly, apparently disagreeing. “Duan Hongzhen, older brother Shen has used his ability too many times in this instance… He can’t go on!”

“I know, but that’s all we can do now…” Duan Hongzhen looked helpless.

Yu Fuling wanted to say something else, but Shen Yuan finally spoke. He said faintly, “Leave it to me.”
