Chapter 1376: Chapter 1376: Ding Dong, the Black-Hearted Medicine Jar Makes an Entrance! 35

Taotie steadied himself, and when he saw clearly who was standing before him, his eyes lit up.

Gulp.

The sound of swallowing.

He hadn’t expected that the food he’d been craving would actually show up right in front of him on its own.

With a chance this good, what was there to wait for?

He was always the quiet type who only ate, but for once, he took the initiative to speak.

"We meet again."

Su Yan turned her head and glanced at Bai Sheng.

Seeing that he was still alive, only grievously wounded, a mouthful of blood spat out as he dropped to one knee, clutching his chest.

She spoke.

"You go first."

Bai Sheng ground his teeth.

If not for Su Yan just now, he’d likely be dead beyond doubt at this very moment.

And compared to that, what shook him even more was that Su Yan’s strike just now had actually managed to contend with this monster of a man.

The shock in his heart was immense.

He used his Longsword to push himself up.

"Be careful."

With that, he staggered backward, retreating, preparing to leave.

Taotie looked at Su Yan first, then turned his gaze to Bai Sheng.

He suddenly gave up on the food he’d been longing for right in front of him, and instead charged straight at Bai Sheng.

"You think you can leave?"

As he spoke, his palm turned into a fist, and he struck straight at him.

Su Yan shot forward, fast, ready to save Bai Sheng.

If Taotie’s fist landed on Bai Sheng, he’d probably die.

Just as Su Yan was about to grab hold of Taotie.

Taotie’s fist suddenly changed course.

It shot toward Su Yan at lightning speed.

Bang!

Su Yan reacted fast.

But the one thing she hadn’t expected was that Taotie’s target wasn’t Bai Sheng at all—it was her.

The two forces collided.

Su Yan defended in a rush; Taotie struck with everything he had.

The next second, Su Yan’s body was like a kite with its string cut, hurled more than ten meters away.

She hit the ground hard enough to leave a crater.

Taotie had gone all out.

What he wanted was a one-hit kill.

This woman’s background might be unknown.

But her strength was on par with his. If they really fought it out, there’d be no winner or loser in the short term.

He had no patience for that now.

He only wanted to drink her blood and eat her until there was nothing left.

Taotie gulped again, audibly swallowing.

A tempting aroma, unique to the blood in her body, wafted into the air.

It was just too fragrant.

He rolled his neck, and didn’t even bother with the hostile stares and attacks around him.

Step by step, he walked toward the woman lying on the ground.

At this moment, Thunder cracked overhead, the sound deafening.

With a boom, Thunder came crashing down right at Taotie’s feet.

It blasted a crater into the ground at his feet.

Taotie rolled his neck and lifted his head to look.

Thunder rumbled.

Everyone nearby could sense that there was something wrong with the weather.

That bolt of Thunder just now was far too terrifying, slamming straight into the ground, bright enough to make it seem like daylight.

The battle that had been roaring a moment ago began to still under that colossal peal of thunder.

Both sides had suffered heavy casualties and were consciously pulling back.

Along with the crack of Thunder came a soft patter.

A single raindrop fell onto Taotie’s black mask.

He wiped at it once, then lifted his head, staring straight up at the sky.

"Even if you blast me to death, before I die, I’m going to drain her blood dry."

People often say, "To die beneath Mu Dan’s flowers, even as a ghost you’d still be flirting."

For Taotie, the happiest way to die would probably be after eating his fill of what he wanted to eat.

Even if he died, he had to eat first.

He walked toward Su Yan, one step at a time.

The rain came down in a fine, steady drizzle, accompanied by flashes of lightning and rolls of thunder, and finally began to fall in earnest.

The woman lying on the ground had seemed to have passed out.

But unexpectedly, after a short while, she actually moved.

Leaning on one arm, she lifted her head.
