Chapter 135 Qiao Yu's Trump Card, Yin-Yang Conversion!

Having sacrificed three people in a row, the altar radiated incredibly dense energy. Tang Lan sat cross-legged on the altar, continuously absorbing the energy.

Qiao Yu only took a whiff from afar and felt his mind clear up a bit.

He helped Mi Yuan up and slowly retreated with Qin Qianxue towards the narrow staircase.

Regardless of what Tang Lan wanted to do, he just wanted to get away from here as quickly as possible.

The aura of danger Tang Lan exuded was far stronger than that of the old man from before.

The narrow staircase was already in sight. Just as Qiao Yu was about to ascend, countless green vines instantly blocked the exit.

"Where are you three going?"

Tang Lan's figure had appeared behind them at some point.

Qiao Yu forced an awkward smile.

"It's too stuffy down here. We wanted to go out for some air. You wouldn't want to capture us for sacrifice… right?"

"What do you think?" A bewitching smile crept onto Tang Lan's lips.

Immediately afterward, several vines lashed out at Qiao Yu and the others.

"To leak the news to that old man and lure you all here, I put in a lot of effort. Do you think I'd let you go?"

"Don't worry, it won't hurt much on the altar. You'll lose consciousness in an instant."

Tang Lan's figure was similar to Zuo You's, but every smile and frown carried a natural charm.

However, all Qiao Yu could feel at that moment was endless coldness.

Was she lying when she told him to send her into the Soul Cleansing Lake?

From beginning to end, everyone was a pawn in this woman's scheme? Including the old man?

Her strategy of setting tigers against each other was truly chilling.

Clang!

Mi Yuan slashed apart several vines with her sword, her pale face showing no fear.

"You really think you have us cornered? Your strength has indeed increased a lot, but you're still just a mid-level," Mi Yuan said.

"If you were in your prime, I naturally wouldn't be so confident."

"But can you still unleash even thirty percent of your full strength right now?"

Tang Lan glanced coldly at Mi Yuan. The battle with the old man had already drained too much of Mi Yuan's energy.

"Give up struggling. That way, you'll at least suffer a little less."

Tang Lan waved her hand, and several more vines attacked instantly.

"Then I'll show you how much strength I have left! Luo Ling Dragon Slash!"

Mi Yuan gritted her teeth and slashed her sword at Tang Lan. As she exerted force, the wound on her calf reopened.

Fresh blood gurgled out, staining the ground red.

"Overestimating yourself."

Tang Lan waved her hand, and several vines condensed together, forming a strong wooden figure that stood in front of her.

The golden dragon attacked, smashing the wooden figure.

But then several more wooden figures composed of vines stood up and pounced on Mi Yuan.

Cold sweat streamed down Mi Yuan's forehead, and she couldn't stop panting.

"What, trying to sneak attack me?"

Tang Lan, with her back to Qiao Yu, suddenly turned her head. Qiao Yu, behind her, was caught with his fist raised, unsure whether to strike or not.

Damn it, can this woman see people with her ass?

Qiao Yu couldn't help but curse inwardly.

"You have my wood seed on you. I can sense your location at any time. Give up those childish ideas," Tang Lan sneered.

"Sister Tang Lan, don't misunderstand. I, Qiao Yu, never hit women, especially pretty ones. I couldn't bear to."

"I just wanted to show you how handsome I look in this pose. See? Is it good-looking?"

Qiao Yu smiled sheepishly, and then a fierce glint flashed in his eyes.

He didn't expect that his trump card would ultimately have to be used on Tang Lan.

"Yin-Yang Conversion!"

Qiao Yu waved his staff and cast a skill on himself.

[Neutral State: Yin-Yang Conversion]

[During Yin-Yang Conversion, the player's defense is reduced by 100%, attack power is increased by 100%, duration: 10 seconds.]

This skill was exactly what he had obtained from killing the Zhou brothers. With the blessing of the Qiongqi Pendant, he was finally able to unleash this skill.

In the Yin-Yang Conversion state, his attack power instantly broke through the thousand mark!

At the same time, the Corpse Ancestor Ring activated, stealing fifty percent of Tang Lan's agility for ten seconds.

Qiao Yu knew very well that he only had these ten seconds.

If he couldn't defeat Tang Lan within ten seconds, he would really be thrown onto the altar as a sacrifice.

The Skeleton King Ring activated, and Qiao Yu punched Tang Lan in the face with all his might. This was the strongest punch he could currently deliver.

"How laughable. You really think a beginner can challenge someone above their level?" Tang Lan didn't take Qiao Yu seriously at all.

Several vines weaved together to form a wall in front of Tang Lan.

However, the next second, Tang Lan's eyes widened.

The vines she summoned were as fragile as paper in front of Qiao Yu's punch.

Qiao Yu's fist shattered all the vines as easily as a hot knife through butter, and then, with undiminished momentum, rushed towards her and smashed into her lower abdomen!

Pfft!

"-1314!"

A terrifying damage value appeared above Tang Lan's head, and she opened her mouth wide, directly vomiting green bile.

Her eyes were filled with horror. How could a beginner necromancer deliver such terrifying damage with a single punch?

Qiao Yu wouldn't give her time to think. He knew that failing to kill a snake would only invite future trouble.

Eye gouge, groin punch, knee strike, elbow strike.

In this life-or-death situation, Qiao Yu couldn't care less about gentlemanly conduct. Within ten seconds, he used every move he could.

He knew very well that if Tang Lan didn't die, then he would be the one to die!

The pitiful Tang Lan could only summon vines to weave together a layer of vine armor to protect herself, enduring Qiao Yu's storm of attacks.

Her heart was filled with frustration, and she was on the verge of vomiting blood. Just now, this kid had told her that he never hit women?

Sure enough, there wasn't a single good man! They were all liars!

Mi Yuan and Qin Qianxue, not far away, exchanged a glance, seeing horror in each other's eyes.

That horror wasn't towards Tang Lan, but towards Qiao Yu…

Bang!

The last punch landed, and a green cocoon was bouncing around in the passage.

In the blink of an eye, ten seconds had passed. The high-intensity punching and kicking made Qiao Yu pant heavily.

After smashing through countless stone bricks, the large cocoon finally stopped moving.

Click!

A fair, small hand pierced through the green cocoon, and Qiao Yu's heart trembled instantly.

Could it be? Is this Tang Lan a cockroach in disguise? She's not dead after all that?

He didn't have enough mana to cast Yin-Yang Conversion again!

The small hand grabbed the edge of the cocoon and pulled hard.

A pig's head stretched out from the cocoon. From the features, one could vaguely recognize that it was Tang Lan.

She no longer had any of her previous charm, only bloatedness and clumsiness.

Her eyes, almost narrowed into slits, were filled with hatred for Qiao Yu. She had never suffered such humiliation in her life.

"Your name is Qiao Yu, right? This grandma remembers you! Even my dad has never hit me like this! I'm definitely not done with you!"
