I Have A City In An Alternate World

836 The choice of death (1)

After hearing Tang Zhen’s words, the mother and daughter’s eyes revealed fear as they subconsciously took two steps back.

However, seeing qiaoer and Allie pointing their guns at them, they didn’t dare to run away. Instead, they stayed where they were, looking helpless.

Behind Tang Zhen, Allie wanted to speak but stopped. Qiaoer, on the other hand, was expressionless. It was as if everything that had happened had nothing to do with him.

“Sir, you can’t do this. It’s not fair!”

The middle-aged woman growled hysterically. Her naked body trembled violently. Her hair was disheveled as she looked at Tang Zhen with a trace of madness and unwillingness.

That young woman did not say a word. She only looked at Tang Zhen in a daze. She was just like a walking corpse. It seemed that even death was unable to cause her fear.

“You don’t have the right to do that, there’s no Yingluo.”

Tang Zhen was unmoved. He merely coldly looked at her.

I’ll say it again. Only one of you can live. You choose!

When the middle-aged woman heard this, she fell to the ground in despair. She happened to sit next to the long-haired man who had been shot in the abdomen by the arrow.

The middle-aged woman had witnessed Tang Zhen’s methods before. She knew that if he wanted her life, it would be as easy as turning her hand!

However, the incomparably strong desire to live in the bottom of her heart caused her to be unwilling to give up the chance to live so easily. She was prepared to continue to beg Tang Zhen in order to obtain a chance to turn the situation around.

However, when she saw Tang Zhen’s emotionless eyes, her heart turned cold. At the same time, she felt complete despair.

After half a minute of silence, the middle-aged woman raised her head and said in a hoarse voice, ” “Please let my daughter go, I can die!”

His daughter, who was originally expressionless like a puppet, now looked at her mother with a hint of surprise in her eyes. She clearly did not expect her mother to make such a choice.

Tang Zhen nodded and used an approving tone to say,”A wise choice, and my target is indeed you!

I’ve seen everything that happened earlier. In order to survive, you’re willing to resort to unscrupulous means. Not only did you use your daughter’s body as a trade, but you also attacked the person who tried to stop you without any hesitation.

However, to be willing to give up his own life for his daughter’s life, this is indeed beyond my expectations!

Don’t worry, I’m just using you for an experiment. Although it’ll be painful, at least it’ll save your life!”

The middle-aged woman’s dark and gloomy eyes immediately erupted with a ray of hope when she heard this. When she raised her head and looked at Tang Zhen, her face still carried an expression of disbelief.

“Teacher, is what you said true?”

Tang Zhen was just about to nod his head when his expression instantly changed.

“Pfft!”

A crossbow bolt that had been polished to an unusually sharp point suddenly pierced through the middle-aged woman’s plump chest. Scarlet blood slowly flowed down her snow-white skin, looking extremely glaring!

The middle-aged woman’s face was filled with pain and disbelief. She slowly turned her head and found the long-haired man with blood in his mouth looking at her with a sinister smile.

“You’re so silly!”

The middle-aged woman wanted to reach out to grab the long-haired man, but her body fell back and she died in an instant.

“Ah, Yingluo!”

The zombie-like young woman seemed to come back to her senses. She looked at the middle-aged woman’s body on the ground, screamed, and suddenly picked up a machete.

The long-haired man’s expression froze as the sharp machete cut into his forehead. More than half of the blade went in, and blood spurted out!

The long-haired man let out a blood-curdling screech as his body fell to the ground, and he soon lost all signs of life.

However, that strange and sinister smile was frozen on his face, and it did not disappear even after his death!

He was already on the verge of death from his previous injuries, and the sneak attack just now had exhausted the last bit of strength in his body. Therefore, after suffering another heavy injury, he died immediately!

The young woman did not stop there. Instead, she screamed loudly and slashed again and again. Blood and flesh fell as she raised the blade.

In the blink of an eye, the long-haired man’s corpse was beyond recognition. His original appearance could not be seen at all!

“Bang!”

Qiaoer suddenly came up to the young woman and hit her neck with just the right force, causing the agitated young woman to faint.

“If I don’t knock her out, she might go crazy!”

Qiaoer explained. He then looked at the corpse on the ground and asked Tang Zhen,”What should I do next?”

Tang Zhen walked forward and casually picked up the middle-aged woman’s corpse. He then turned around and walked toward the thatched cottage.

“Clean up the battlefield, I’ll be back soon!”

......

Tang Zhen threw the middle-aged woman’s body on the bed and sized up the thatched cottage.

The interior of the house was simple and crude. There were many messy things hanging on the wall, and some farm tools were placed at the door.

Because of the previous battle, the house was in a mess. There were still bullet shells and traces of blood on the ground.

After not finding anything that interested him, Tang Zhen’s line of sight once again stopped on the middle-aged woman’s body.

A wisp of the world’s origin aura was slowly escaping from the corpse. When the corpse completely rotted, the world’s origin would completely separate and find a new host!

That’s right, the middle-aged woman in front of him was the host of a portion of the world’s Origin Energy!

Tang Zhen had already confirmed this after seeing her. Therefore, he had been observing her every move.

It was unknown if it was due to the influence of the world’s origin, but this woman’s desire to survive was extremely strong, and she was even somewhat unscrupulous!

The choice of only one being able to live was actually a kind of test by Tang Zhen. He wanted to see if the world’s origin would jump out and interfere with the thoughts and actions of the host when the host’s life was in danger.

As a result, Tang Zhen was very disappointed because the world’s origin was completely indifferent to this. It was as if the life and death of the host had nothing to do with it.

Later on, this middle-aged woman was willing to sacrifice herself to save her daughter. When Tang Zhen was really prepared to let her live, the long-haired man who was seriously injured and dying suddenly launched a sneak attack and directly pierced the middle-aged woman’s heart with a crossbow arrow!

This scene had happened too suddenly. Even Tang Zhen was not on guard. He was even more unable to save the middle-aged woman’s life in this split second.

However, this would also save Tang Zhen a lot of trouble.

He pointed at the corpse on the bed, and a terrifying flame burst out, devouring the corpse in an instant.

Tang Zhen’s body was not damaged in the slightest even though he was in the middle of the raging flames. There were no sparks in his surroundings.

As the body turned to ashes, the original hidden power of the world’s origin quickly flew out of the sea of fire and was absorbed by the phone.

The mysterious star in the phone flashed again, then returned to normal.

Tang Zhen had already anticipated this scene. Hence, he turned around and left with a calm expression, allowing the flames to completely devour the thatched cottage!
