My Childhood Sweetheart Is a Crazy Beauty

Chapter 211: Chapter 211: Worldview Shattered

Everything Tang Chuxia saw today completely overturned her understanding.

Not to mention the source of the Divine Power she doubted, what the heck was this "gluttonous banquet"?

Looking at Elder Huang’s expression, it seemed everyone understood except for her.

Fortunately, Lin Qingchen was righteous enough to clarify her confusion.

"The so-called gluttonous banquet is about consuming your energy since the tao tie only takes in and never releases."

Mind blown!

All her beliefs were shattered.

Tang Chuxia believed that if she hadn’t seen it with her own eyes today, she would never have believed what she heard.

What infuriated her even more was Beihuai standing next to her, who added, "It’s similar to a Pixiu, what crap about tao tie!"

Tang Chuxia even took the time to compare the two – both Pixiu and tao tie only take in and never release. What’s the difference? At most, one is an auspicious beast, and the other an evil beast?

But what did it matter?

To her, both were only outputs without inputs.

Not to mention the quiet muttering among the three of them, let’s talk about Tang Wanqiu in the center of the venue who had already begun convulsing on the ground, with traces of blood emerging from her wrists.

Tang Chuxia thought of that vague memory and severely suspected her granduncles were some sort of evil leaders.

Otherwise, how could there be such a bloody scene?

The key issue was that the four elders did nothing but simply watched.

This was completely different from the saintly and moral impression Tang Chuxia had of them.

It was simply outrageous.

Even though Tang Chuxia disliked Tang Wanqiu intensely, she couldn’t just watch her die in front of her. However, she couldn’t possibly get close, as Lin Qingchen held her by the shoulder.

Seeing her genuinely anxious, Elder Huang sighed, "Why are you in such a hurry? She won’t die. At most, she’ll suffer a bit! You’ll see soon enough!"

Tang Chuxia could only wait impatiently and, sure enough, Tang Wanqiu soon stood up, clutching her wrist and walked towards the young man, then kicked him.

She really put a lot of force into it, visibly very angry and especially furious.

The young man dodged and said with a chuckle, "I was just afraid you wouldn’t dare to go in by yourself and wanted to help you!"

Tang Wanqiu shouted, "I can walk by myself!"

The granduncle scolded discontentedly, "Shut up!"

Tang Wanqiu dared not speak anymore, and the young man also stood obediently with his hands down.

Tang Chuxia couldn’t care less about their whispering and focused entirely on the scene.

The huge piece of jade had absorbed the blood and slowly started to flow, eventually revealing a pattern.

How did Tang Chuxia recognize it as a rune?

She would definitely tell you to watch more videos by Taoists; they have people drawing them.

However, the emerging symbol only flashed briefly.

"Indeed a waste!"

The granduncle disdained but then remarked, "She only drank a bit of that girl’s blood and already showed such a change, aren’t you all envious?"

Tang Chuxia felt like she was a fool, the kind who had come over just to be bullied.

One who had invited this upon herself.

Third Grandpa nodded, "Envious!"

After he spoke, the granduncle grew even more enthusiastic.

"See, I knew Third Brother understood me. Why don’t we start now?" The granduncle was almost eager to grab Tang Chuxia and make her bleed by cutting her wrist.

Third Grandpa asked, "How did you know this girl had that thing in her body?"

Uncle paused, rubbing his hands, clearly reluctant, and said, "That girl told me!"

He was pointing at Tang Wanqiu. Tang Wanqiu wasn’t the Uncle, she lacked stability but she also acted differently from before, giggling softly, "Third Grandpa, aren’t you being a bit too biased? I, too, grew up under your watch. Why are you so cold towards me?"

She clasped her wrist, "Look how miserable I am, and you still only think of my sister. I will get angry!"

She handed her hand near the young man’s lips, but he disdainfully pushed it away, yet covered it with a handkerchief.

Tang Wanqiu used her teeth to help tie the handkerchief.

"How did you come to know this?"

Third Grandpa asked in a cold voice, clenching a smoking pipe in his hand, except the bowl of the pipe did not contain tobacco, but some wriggling worms.

Tang Wanqiu clearly knew the danger of those worms. She took two steps back to ensure her safety before saying, "My father came to see me!"

Third Grandpa glanced at Tang Chuxia and then at Uncle, "Did you act as the intermediary?"

Uncle’s face turned red with embarrassment as he nodded reluctantly.

Third Grandpa flung the item in his hand directly at Uncle, who dodged like a monkey, trying to swipe the worms away and bellowed angrily, "Third Brother, aren’t I also your brother? Was it necessary to strike me so harshly?"

Third Grandpa said with disapproval, "Aren’t you still alive?"

This remark deeply agitated Uncle, and even the old Taoist next to him grew impatient.

"Tired, let’s finish this and go to sleep!"

The old monk also spoke up, "Amitabha, I also believe so!"

Then, Third Grandpa shouted at Gu Beihuai, "Take action!"

Gu Beihuai’s weapon began firing, then he blew a whistle, and many more people jumped into the group surrounding Tang Chuxia and the others.

Although not numerous, they were clad in black and moved like ghosts through the night, claiming lives with each movement.

For a time, Tang Chuxia watched the battle unfold with great intensity.

Lin Qingchen was continually protecting her, not allowing her to join in.

"I can help!" Tang Chuxia was very confident in her Divine Power, but Lin Qingchen disagreed, his exact words were, "The Taoist master ordered me to ensure your safety!"

That was utterly rigid!

How could he pursue her like this?

He was truly not suited for her.

Tang Chuxia had no choice but to watch quietly with Elder Huang, but her stillness didn’t mean everyone else was motionless.

The young man previously standing by Tang Wanqiu’s side suddenly rushed towards Tang Chuxia.

Tang Chuxia wasn’t scared of him, but Lin Qingchen still reacted, and when he moved, it created an opening.

Tang Wanqiu took advantage of this and moved closer to Tang Chuxia.

She threw something at Tang Chuxia’s face, but what she expected to hit Tang Chuxia’s face fell onto an umbrella instead.

Who would have guessed Tang Chuxia would carry a foldable umbrella that could pop open with a press of a button?

Tang Wanqiu saw that her object hadn’t reached Tang Chuxia, and cursed in annoyance, but she didn’t attack again, instead retreating.

Is Tang Chuxia the type of person who doesn’t retaliate when attacked?

Clearly not, so she charged forward, knowing Tang Wanqiu must be holding something, and aimed the umbrella at Tang Wanqiu’s ankles.

Amid Tang Wanqiu’s screams, Tang Chuxia grabbed her ankle and flung her toward the young man attacking Lin Qingchen.

The young man cried out as Tang Wanqiu crashed into him.

The two of them collided, and their fighting ability was gone.

Lin Qingchen looked at her disapprovingly, and Tang Chuxia just smiled at him.

"Tang Chuxia, try smiling again!" a voice full of warning whispered in her ear.
