My Childhood Sweetheart Is a Crazy Beauty -
Chapter 124: Who Are You Really?
Chapter 124: Chapter 124: Who Are You Really?
The uncle’s smile became even more kindly.
"Uncle, I’m doing this for your own good. You just need to transfer the Divine Power to Tang Wanqiu. Don’t you despise that child? Let her bear all this instead!"
Tang Chuxia: ...
She felt that her uncle might have some issues with his intelligence.
Give it to Tang Wanqiu?
Wait for her to come and kill herself?
"Of course, if you’re unwilling, this old man can do it too!"
He even seemed a bit embarrassed.
Finally, Tang Chuxia couldn’t keep her composure, and her face cracked!
"Uncle, could you please tell me how to transfer it?"
She asked with curiosity as the uncle stood up, walked to the center of the room, pulled off the covers, and revealed two white jade beds.
"What’s this? Could it be the legendary thousand-year-old ice?"
She laughed at her own remark, finding it quite amusing.
The uncle rubbed his hands together: "Exactly!"
Tang Chuxia: ...I was joking!
But you’re seriously spouting nonsense; that’s a bit unkind.
The uncle circled around the bed twice with a face full of obsession. "I spent decades searching for this object, and I finally found it!"
His old fingers caressed the jade as if it were a lover, giving Tang Chuxia the creeps. If it were not for the certainty that she hadn’t entered some strange Cultivation World, she would have suspected something was wrong with her nerves.
"Xiaxia, you are a good child. I’ve put so much effort into keeping you alive, and you’ve done well,"
he murmured, but Tang Chuxia caught the keyword.
Survived?
He?
Hadn’t Madam Tang said it was the old Taoist?
If it were the man before her, it couldn’t possibly be her uncle.
Who the heck was this person?
She was very curious but also knew that now was not the time to ask. As the uncle had people come in to prepare for action, Tang Chuxia saw Tang Wanqiu come in, tied up, and couldn’t help but wonder.
Wasn’t Tang Wanqiu one of their own? Why was she tied up?
She rubbed her eyes doubtfully. What was going on?
Tang Wanqiu glared at her with pure hatred, which felt somewhat disjointed from before.
Tang Chuxia’s head ached, feeling like she ought to be dreaming, even going so far as to pinch her own thigh.
Ouch—
It hurt—
Why pinch herself for no reason?
Tears sprang to her eyes.
But the uncle thought Tang Chuxia was afraid.
"Child, don’t be scared, I’ll definitely be very gentle!"
His eyes became blurry, and he was in a state of excessive excitement.
Tang Chuxia responded with an "Oh," obediently complying with his instructions.
The uncle was even more pleased; he did not seem to worry at all about Tang Chuxia running away or causing trouble. Only Tang Wanqiu’s expression shifted back and forth between resentment and confusion, which looked very strange no matter how you looked at it.
Soon, the uncle took out a syringe, ready to give Tang Chuxia an injection.
Seeing the glinting needle, Tang Chuxia was quite uncomfortable, as she had been pricked by this thing before.
As expected, the look in Tang Wanqiu’s eyes held more schadenfreude, as if watching her about to endure unspeakable torment.
And Tang Chuxia chuckled dryly: "Uncle, we don’t need this, do we?"
The uncle’s initially blurry eyes suddenly hardened.
"Why wouldn’t we need it? This is necessary!"
Tang Chuxia looked around the room and, seeing only the three of them there with the others already gone, she moved her neck a bit, then her wrists. "Great-uncle, was the medicine Tang Wanqiu injected into me supposed to make me weak?"
The great-uncle chuckled with a disgusting display of yellow teeth, finally revealing a beast-like greed.
"Of course, otherwise I couldn’t have been sure to keep you near me!"
Tang Chuxia nodded; that was good to know.
She was also curious; some things still needed to be asked.
She walked over to Tang Wanqiu, laid a hand on her shoulder, and smiled brightly, "My dear sister, you are quite formidable!"
Tang Wanqiu didn’t understand and frowned at her.
Before she could ask anything, Tang Chuxia chopped at Tang Wanqiu’s neck with the side of her hand and, before the old man could shout for help, she grasped his neck with lightning speed, plunging the needle he held straight into his body.
The liquid medicine was fully pushed into the old man.
The old man panicked.
He opened his mouth to yell but found he couldn’t make a sound; Tang Chuxia placed the old man on the thousand-year-old jade bed and did the same with Tang Wanqiu.
There was a slot on the bed, just the right size for two hands to rest, with a channel in the middle that led to a collective point.
Looking at the structure of the bed, she said to the old man in a good mood, "How could you be so careless, old man? You say I have Divine Power and think of using drugs to control me, but shouldn’t you at least make sure the dosage is right?"
She found a blade on the old man, made a cut on his wrist, and his dark red blood flowed down into the channel.
She didn’t spare Tang Wanqiu, mainly because the old man was a madman, and Tang Wanqiu was no good either, but she still wanted to see Tang Wanqiu’s reaction to everything.
The two streams of blood flowed into the channel and met in the middle indentation, but there was no magical chemical reaction, not even a physical one.
No, wait!
There was a little physical reaction.
It multiplied!
Tang Chuxia was somewhat dissatisfied.
Why wasn’t there any magical reaction?
Was the thousand-year-old jade overhyped?
Or was it not supposed to be used like this?
Tang Chuxia pondered while rubbing her chin and woke Tang Wanqiu up, "Do you know what this is used for?"
Tang Wanqiu looked at her own wrist in terror, instinctively struggling, but felt a blade pressed against the main artery of her neck.
"My dear sister, I must remind you not to move carelessly, okay? After all, the blade is somewhat sharp!"
Tang Wanqiu ground her teeth and growled, "How come you’re not affected?"
Tang Chuxia shrugged. "How should I know? Maybe you gave me a fake medication!"
Tang Wanqiu wanted to curse at the damned fake drug.
Was she insane?
Tang Chuxia seemed to have the knack for infuriating people without paying with her life, "Or maybe you’ve had a change of heart, finally honoring your older sister, right? I am, after all, somewhat touched that my sister knows to show me respect!"
Tang Wanqiu...
She almost ran out of breath.
Forget it!
She was already lying back on the bed; she couldn’t very well lie back even more.
Meanwhile, the great-uncle, the old man, was immobilized, watching Tang Chuxia with horror, wanting to speak, but unfortunately, Tang Chuxia wasn’t interested in listening.
"Tang Wanqiu, are you really that stupid? Every time I think you’re finally acting like the main character, you start making foolish mistakes! Do you think you’re justifying all the emotions I’ve wasted on you?"
Tang Chuxia circled Tang Wanqiu twice.
Anyone not knowing better would think she was the crazy old man, not the pitiable girl who was captured.
Tang Wanqiu clenched her teeth. "Tang Chuxia, who the hell are you?"
She had to admit, Tang Chuxia had gotten smarter!
"Oh, you’re asking now? I thought you would’ve asked when I started beating you!"
Tang Wanqiu wanted to spit blood!
"Who exactly are you?"
Tang Chuxia chuckled darkly, "Of course, I am your half-sister from another father and mother!!!"
