Chapter 361.1: Hes Arrived (1/2)
Tang Doudou didn’t try to deny it and actually admitted it openly. “That’s right. I want you to let me go. I don’t want to die yet.”
“You’re sure honest.” Ninth Uncle gave a cold humph.
Tang Doudou said with a laugh, “Why don’t you reconsider my suggestion?”
“Humph! I only want you to die! Why go through all that trouble if your death could solve everything?”
Fudge! Seriously nothing gets through to this guy!
Tang Doudou silently cursed as she edged backwards. She continued persuading with a smile, “Ninth Uncle, we really can just sit down to discuss this properly. It’s not like death is the only solution to this problem.”
“Give up on your flowery antics, I know you’re just trying to buy yourself more time so that stinkin’ girl, Baili Yiling, can come save you. You should just give up! She’ll never be able to find this place!” Ninth Uncle laughed coldly. He had already cornered Tang Doudou and now, was slowly reaching out for her neck.
Tang Doudou’s eyes whirled and used her inner strength to dodge nimbly to the side. She rapidly backed alway in the direction of the exit of the cave. “If I disappear here, Yiling will definitely keep trying to find me. Even if all that’s left of me is my corpse, she’ll still find me!”
“Then I’ll make it so you don’t have a corpse. I’ll make you disappear entirely from this world!” Ninth Uncle crackled. “That one-eyed fish in the lake loves eating corpses!”
Tang Doudou recalled that creature’s ice-like blue eye and shuddered. She couldn’t even have an intact corpse when she died? Why were the Heavens so cruel to her?
When she saw the bloodthirsty playfulness in Ninth Uncle’s eyes, she started mourning for herself. She wouldn’t be able to buy much more time, but not a single sign of salvation has shown up. Could it be that this was really going to be her last day?
“Ah!” Just as this thought flashed through her mind, Ninth Uncle abruptly attacked. His nails were as sharp as steel nails. Tang Doudou hastily dodge and kicked a nearby stalactite to use it to block Ninth Uncle’s next attack.
However, Ninth Uncle crushed the stalactite to pieces with one hand. As the stalactite shattered, Tang Doudou was also blown back by Ninth Uncle’s profound inner strength and staggered back.
She couldn’t win again him, she had to run!
When Tang Doudou came to this decision, her figure immediately turned into a blur as she flew out of the cave. Ninth Uncle hadn’t been expecting for her qinggong to be this good. By the time he reacted, Tang Doudou had already reached the entrance of the cave. However, he didn’t seem flustered and just chased after her calmly.
When Tang Doudou got out of the cave and didn’t see Ninth Uncle chasing after her, she was puzzled. However, an instant later, she heard movement and her expression rapidly changed. She hastily picked a random direction and started running as if her life depended on it.
Once Ninth Uncle exited the cave, he stopped chasing and started making a strange call as if he was summoning something. The surrounding earth soon started rustling. Tang Doudou, who was in the forest, immediately noticed that something was wrong. When she looked carefully, she discovered that brightly colored snakes were all around her.
Her face paled and she hastily moved towards the ground.
Right before she landed, she saw that the ground was filled with snakes as well.
This was definitely Ninth Uncle’s doing. Tang Doudou’s face was deathly pale. If it had been something else, she’d be able to deal with it, but she was terrified of these soft and wiggly things. Just the sight of them made her legs go weak, there was no way she could bring herself to make contact with them.
Without anything to jump off of, she couldn’t keep flying. Her expression filled with panic when she saw that she was about to land on top of those snakes. Suddenly, she recalled the torches in the chest. Snakes liked the cool and were afraid of fire.
She hastily took out a rolled torch and blew it until it lit up, then threw it towards the withered branches on the ground. The branches immediately burst into flames and the snakes hastily slithered away.
Tang Doudou used her inner strength and forcefully changed directions in midair to land in that direction.
