Volume 1: Spring in Wulong Town Chapter 205: Awakening Talent, Phoenix Blood Thorns
The expanding moon was like a hook star, and the sound of its disintegration in the air could be heard from far away.
The entire Wulong Town could hear bursts of "crackling, crackling" sounds, which were sharper than thunder but more penetrating.
The Lan family ancestor lowered his head and looked at the ice-blue wound in the middle of his upper abdomen with his eyes that could not see clearly at all, his eyes widened...
The blood cloud in the sky couldn't repair the wound no matter how hard it tried. The blood flowed from the wound like a waterfall. He subconsciously reached out to cover it, but the blood flowed out from between his fingers.
Wisps of black mist flew out from the blood cloud and lingered around the ancestor of the Lan family like wandering souls. The blood flowing from his body was swallowed up by the black mist mouthful by mouthful.
His blood kept gushing out, as if it would never stop flowing...
But as his blood continued to flow out, his body shriveled up little by little.
Until there was no more blood left in his body, his entire body was drained into a mummy!
"Oh...oh..." The dried corpse of the Lan family's ancestor could still make bursts of shrill howls.
The wandering black mist did not let him go. Even though he had become a half-dead mummy, the mist continued to gnaw at him desperately.
At first, there was only the sound of blood being swallowed, then the rustling sound of dry meat being torn and chewed, and finally it turned into the crackling sound of bones being bitten into pieces...
It was not until the withered head of the Lan family ancestor fell to the ground that the black mist dissipated reluctantly along with the blood cloud.
It was just dawn.
A night of fierce fighting left Tangjiabao in a mess.
In the entire Tangjiabao, there is no complete house except a small courtyard next to Tang Zheng.
The tents on the martial arts training ground were also riddled with holes.
“Master, Master… come and have a look!” The Tang Family Castle, which had survived the disaster, was not as excited as it should be. Tang Zixie’s anxious voice rang out beside Tang Zheng, “Xiaotang…Xiaotang…”
Tang Zheng turned around suddenly and remembered the vine that helped him to win the battle!
A volley strike, forceful control.
Tang Xiaotang paid the price of a starburst!
He turned around and saw Tang Xiaotang had her eyes closed, leaning against Tang Xuan. Her ponytail, which was usually tied up high, had fallen down, and her black hair was swaying quietly in the breeze before dawn.
Tang Boyuan, who had just woken up, staggered over and fell to the ground with a plop. He took Tang Xiaotang's body from Tang Xuan's hands and gritted his teeth desperately, but he couldn't hold back the tears that fell...
Tang Xiaotang's starburst, combined with Tang Zheng's astrological talent, saved the entire Tang Family Castle.
But the price she paid was something Tang Boyuan could not accept.
"Uncle... accept my condolences." Tang Zixie said to Tang Boyuan in a trembling voice.
"Yeah." Tang Boyuan closed his eyes tightly, "Starburst... Starburst... Why didn't I have time to Starburst before I passed out..."
He would rather be the one to die.
Tang Xiaotang is not only his daughter, but also the future of the entire Tangjiabao.
"Wait a minute." Tang Zheng stopped them from preparing for the funeral, "Xiaotang's astrological sign hasn't completely dissipated..."
"Uh..." Tang Boyuan felt his heart almost stop beating after hearing this. He looked up into the air and asked, "Where?"
With Tang Zheng's eyesight, he could already see a transparent thorn petal rising from behind Xiaotang, followed by the second and third petals. Just like a flower bud blooming from a seedling, the tender and fragile petals seemed to be sucking in the first rays of morning air, gradually turning pink and fiery red...
It was not until the stars behind Xiaotang regained color that everyone in Tangjiabao could see clearly: "Really! How did her stars come together again?"
Afterwards, Tang Xiaotang's body gently floated up from Tang Boyuan's hands, and the formed fiery red thorn flower suddenly contracted, wrapping her entire body inside the pistil.
The fiery red light flows brilliantly around the thorn flower buds...
The surrounding star power became very peaceful and gentle.
After about twenty breaths, the flower bud bloomed again in the air.
Slowly, slowly...
The slowly blooming floating stars revealed the slender but resilient figure of a sixteen-year-old girl...
Everyone in Tangjiabao was stunned.
It was quiet all around.
Everyone's eyes were focused on Tang Xiaotang.
Tang Xiaotang opened her eyes a little confused...
The petals behind her floated quietly in the wind like wings, carrying her to the ground. The moment she landed, two bright stars suddenly lit up on the fiery red thorn flower behind her.
Those were the two stars that had shattered in the air when her star exploded!
At this moment, intact !
"I... am not dead?" Tang Xiaotang opened her still slightly pale lips and uttered softly.
"That's great!" The entire Tangjiabao burst into huge cheers because of her gentle words, "That's great! That's great!!"
"Sister Xiaotang is not dead... She is not dead!"
"We survived, we all survived!"
Everyone felt as if every pore in their body relaxed, and the dark cloud covering their heads finally dissipated completely at that moment.
The leaders of the battle groups looked at Tang Xiaotang as if she were a treasure: "Phoenix Blood Thorn... Is this Phoenix Blood Thorn?"
The young men of Tang Family Castle all looked puzzled.
They were not as knowledgeable as the battle-hardened regiments and had no idea what these four words meant.
However, the various chapters did not have time to answer them.
"Little Sugar Girl, how about joining our battle group?"
"Let's go with our regiment. We are the top trump card of Tulun Pass..."
"The competition there is fierce, but the treatment is not as good as here!"
Tang Xiaotang was like a piece of sweet cake, being desperately fought over by several ace regiments.
Wang Danyang realized it later and changed his clothes before reacting: "You guys are robbing me in front of me?"
"The talent of the Phoenix is unique in the world. We definitely won't give you any face. No matter what you say, we won't give in." Ye Chu sat on the ground, regulating his breath, and slowly opened his eyes and said.
"That's right, this may be the only time I get to see the Phoenix's talent awaken in my lifetime. If I miss this opportunity, I will never have it again!"
Several battle groups were talking to each other, leaving the real boss aside.
However, Tang Xiaotang herself was not confused at all.
The images that emerged in her mind...
That special star power flows in her star veins ...
Every little change made her very clear what was happening to her!
"Your astrological talent that has never been awakened has finally awakened, right?" Tang Zheng said with a smile.
"Yeah!" A bright smile bloomed on Tang Xiaotang's face.
…
The thorns are tough, they can survive fire and water. You can find all kinds of thorns in dry deserts or wet swamps.
It is very small, not as dazzling as the towering trees. Its flowers are only small, and compared with the beautiful flowers of the decadent and luxurious life, it is not as beautiful as others.
But its indomitable spirit and tenacity allow it to grow and survive tenaciously in every inch of land with different conditions.
Xiaotang's own experience is just like a tough thorn. When he was eight or nine years old, his star power was less than 100, but at the age of sixteen he had already become a two-star warrior.
People who are not from Tangjiabao might be surprised that she can have such a powerful astrological talent that allows her to come back to life from the dead. However, her elders and her brothers and sisters would not be surprised at all.
On the contrary, after understanding what kind of talent "Phoenix Blood Thorn" is, everyone feels that it is the talent that should belong to Xiaotang!
Every bit of Tang Xiaotang's effort was hidden under her smile as bright as a fiery red thorn flower.
But after she advanced to the second star, her astrological talent was slow to awaken, leaving her and the people in Tang Family Castle feeling as if something was worrying them.
And now, her astrological talent has finally awakened.
Back from the dead!
After waiting for so long, it’s worth it to finally get this result!
"They call it Phoenix Blood Thorn?" Tang Zheng laughed.
"Yeah." Tang Xiaotang smiled.
"Wouldn't it be more descriptive if we called it 'One Pawn a Day'?"
"..." Tang Xiaotang pouted, "Okay. Then I will work hard to make one move every day."
Her astrological talent had just awakened, so of course it was impossible for her to be resurrected every day. The special star power that supported her astrological talent flowed very slowly, and it would take at least a month to gather again.
However, as her strength increases, breaking through three stars, four stars... all the way to seven stars, the frequency with which she can use her astrological talent will naturally become higher and higher.
When you reach Seven Stars, maybe you can use your astrological talent once a day?
Tang Zheng was of course just joking: "Brother Xinzheng, revive with full health and mana!"
Tang Xiaotang didn't understand his jargon, so she just imitated him and snapped her fingers with a smile.
"Clean up and check the casualties. Are there any servants who didn't have time to hide in the Chongshan Battle Group?" Tang Boyuan was extremely happy. Although the battle with Yinlan Villa almost destroyed the entire Tang Family Castle, compared with the final safe outcome and the awakening of his daughter's astrological talent, the destruction of Tang Family Castle was no big deal.
"Yes, there was a child hiding under the table in the kitchen. Unfortunately, he was hit by the blood arrow and died... and several others were injured..." Tang Zhongxing gave him the results quickly, "And... he is still alive."
As he spoke, the two servants behind Tang Zhongxing threw a skinny man in front of Tang Boyuan.
Tang Zheng, who was standing next to Tang Boyuan, took a closer look and said, "Manager Li from Yinlan Villa?"
The servant of Tangjiabao died, but Manager Li who was imprisoned in the woodshed was still alive. Tang Boyuan didn't even look at him and waved his hand: "Kill him."
Manager Li's eyes were bloodshot: "Old Ancestor... You killed the old ancestor? How is it possible... How is it possible..."
Tang Zheng smiled and threw the head, which was so dry that it was almost unrecognizable, in front of him.
Li Guanshi's eyes suddenly shed two lines of blood and tears...
Just when Tang Boyuan was about to have someone take him away and kill him, Tang Zheng stretched out his hand: "Wait a moment."
"What's wrong? Is there any use for you keeping him?" Tang Boyuan asked.
"No, it's just that I have something interesting to show him before he dies."
