Chapter 143.1: Strange Within Strange (2/2)

Seeing that Jin Longer was about to attack, Xiao Dao immediately moved in front of Tang Doudou to shield her. He shouted coldly, “Jin Longbiao, cease your impudent actions!”

“Who do you think you are, boy? Scram!” Xiao Dao’s warning had no effect. Jin Longbiao roared as he lifted his morning star and attacked Xiao Dao. The aggressive aura he gave off was so strong it gave one the impression that a single attack from him could crush Xiao Dao to death.

As things had happened too suddenly, Tang Doudou had no chance to react. When she saw that the enormous morning star was about to land on Xiao Dao, her pupils abruptly dilated. “Xiao Dao!”

The next second, she seemed to see Xiao Dao’s terribly mangled state. Tang Doudou was heartbroken with grief and indignation. It was all her fault, she had caused Xiao Dao’s death!

Feelings of self-blame and anger flooded her. Her fists tightened and her normally calm dantian was aroused by the fury. Power surged out and rushed through her entire body. Tang Doudou felt as if her body was being torn to shreds. She couldn’t help but tilt her face towards the sky and roar, “Aaah!”

As her black hair lifted into the air, a trace of red light actually flashed through her eyes. Following that, her figure seemed to become that of a demon’s. In the blink of an eye, she arrived above Jin Longbiao’s head. She reached out and lightly placed her palm on the morning star.

Boom!

Eye-piercing white light mixed with an enormous movement of air caused the morning star to break completely into pieces,before abruptly exploding outwards. The pieces screamed as they whizzed by, instantly causing all the bandits surrounding them to fall to the ground.

The dust gradually settled, revealing a chaotic mess.

The mountain bandits were so terrified by this scene that they were pretty much about to shit (and pee) in their pants. They instantly ran away screaming.

Yu Fenger stood not far away. There were only a few ripped pieces of his clothes left. He was frozen in place with astonishment, his hand still in the orchid fingers gesture as he stared at the figure in the center whose long black hair was dancing in the air.

Xiao Dao stared, just as shocked, at Tang Doudou who was in front of him and at the trembling Jin Longbiao behind her. His throat was a bit dry. “L-lady… Doudou.”

The energy that had abruptly taken over her body had been completely released in that outburst just now. She finally felt comfortable again, but soon after, pain as if she had been run over by a wheel hit her. Tang Doudou loosened a breath of relief when she heard Xiao Dao calling her. She brushed away the hair that had fallen over her forehead and turned around. “I…”

Pfff!

Before she could finish speaking, she spurted out a mouthful of blood.

“Lady Doudou!” Xiao Dao’s facial color changed drastically as he immediately went to catch her.

Tang Doudou gazed toward the sky, her eyes dull, her complexion pale as snow. Her lips were stained dark red. Seeing her like this made Xiao Dao completely lose his head. “Lady Doudou, ar-are you alright? Can you hear me?”
