Chapter 21 Almond Tofu from Another World: An Unforgettable Taste

Goron and his soldiers left in a hurry, and the streets were empty. The pedestrians who had run away earlier did not dare to return for a while.

The students inside Yuexuan also dared not come out, fearing that they would be taken away by the enraged Gelong.

Only Xiao, Poison Douluo, and Tang Yuehua remained on the entire street.

Tang Yuehua breathed a sigh of relief, patted her chest, and looked at Xiao with a complicated expression.

She thought the demon she needed to protect actually had such abilities.

He even defeated the titled Douluo of the Spirit Hall.

But in her eyes, Xiao was still a young man who needed to be cared for.

Besides their own personal fondness, they also have high recruitment value for the Haotian Sect!

Tang Yuehua had just opened her mouth, but before she could say anything...

Poison Douluo then said, "Alright, now that this guy is gone, you should come with me. I refuse to believe I can't heal your injuries!"

Poison Douluo, his face tense, was about to step forward and grab Xiao's wrist.

Tang Yuehua panicked when she saw this and stood in front of him.

"Your Excellency Poison Douluo, how can you drag someone away? Xiao has his freedom, and you have no right to interfere."

Poison Douluo glanced curiously at Tang Yuehua, then looked at Xiao behind him.

An inquisitive look immediately appeared on his old face.

Tang Yuehua, the most noblewoman among nobles in the Heaven Dou Empire, possessing unparalleled elegance and known as the First Noble Lady, was surprisingly nervous.

There must be some kind of relationship between these two people, right?

For example... an illegitimate child?

The moment that thought crossed his mind, he received Xiao's death stare.

Poison Douluo felt a chill run down his spine, finding the young man increasingly strange. Could it be that he could even guess what was on someone's mind?

Tang Yuehua glared at Poison Douluo with annoyance; this guy couldn't hide anything on his face!

Xiao remained calm throughout, even when Goron surrounded him just now.

In Douluo Continent, being surrounded by Ge Long's soldiers might seem like a serious matter, but he is the Golden Roc General, who has fought countless demon gods and seen even bigger scenes.

How could this cause any ripples?

"What kind of place is the Killing Capital?" Xiao was only interested in that right now.

He had little contact with humans to begin with, and now that the materialized "demon god" was gone, he was having some trouble finding his way.

The "killing city" that Goron mentioned seems to be a very specific location.

Slaughter—it's not a good word to begin with.

He was a belligerent demon, but deep down he disliked excessive killing.

"Well... you should come with me first. I'll tell you after you've recovered." Poison Douluo chuckled, not giving Xiao any explanation.

Tang Yuehua grabbed Xiao's other hand and said with a forced smile:

"Your Excellency Poison Douluo, Xiao is a guest of my Moon Pavilion. Do you intend to be an unwelcome guest?"

The two of them each grabbed an arm and refused to let go.

Xiao stared intently at Poison Douluo, as if to say, "If you don't tell me, I'll keep watching."

Poison Douluo was speechless for a moment. Unable to bear the gaze, he relented and said, "Fine, you're really persistent. The City of Slaughter is a forbidden land..."

To put it bluntly, Killing City is actually a large prison.

The guilty and the fugitives who flee from their crimes all go to the killing city, and once they enter, they almost never come out.

But those who emerge are all peerless killing gods, one in a million!

So the direction that Goron pointed out to Xiao was correct in a way: nine out of ten people there deserved to die!

However, in the past thousand years, no more than ten people have been able to get out of it.

If Xiao goes in, he probably won't be able to come out again.

Xiao wasn't worried at all. A group of villains, with their soul power sealed, meant their combat strength was greatly reduced. It was practically a blessed place!

It is possible to kill the guilty without using too much power.

Xiao seems to be very worthwhile.

"Where? I'll go," Xiao asked again.

Poison Douluo opened his mouth, "No, didn't you understand what I said? In over a thousand years, fewer than ten people have managed to get out! If you're trapped inside, you're finished!"

Xiao remained expressionless, showing no concern for what Poison Douluo was emphasizing.

Tang Yuehua, no longer bothered with competing with Poison Douluo, smiled slightly and said, "Xiao, didn't you want to eat almond tofu? We've already prepared it, why don't you come back and eat?"

Poison Douluo nodded repeatedly, "That's right! Filling our stomachs is the key! But what is almond tofu?"

Tang Yuehua ignored him and pulled Xiao into Yuexuan on her own.

Poison Douluo's expression turned awkward. Did this Tang Xuanzhu really not care about his reputation as a Title Douluo?!

……

The top floor of Yuexuan.

Tang Yuehua, wearing an apron, brought over some food, including a small dish with several pieces of tender white "tofu".

She sat opposite Xiao, looking at him tenderly.

"Want to try some?"

Poison Douluo stood aside, glanced at the legendary "almond tofu," and immediately curled his lip upon seeing its color.

It was just sweets after all. Xiao is just a boy, as expected.

I can't compare to a mature man like myself!

Xiao scooped up a small piece of almond tofu and put it in his mouth.

With its delicate and soft texture and a hint of sweetness, it offers a unique taste experience.

"Xiao, why do you like eating almond tofu?" Tang Yuehua asked curiously.

Xiao replied, "It tastes a lot like 'sweet dreams'."

"Huh?" Tang Yuehua and Poison Douluo were both taken aback. A beautiful dream? What kind of taste could this thing possibly have?

Poison Douluo's curiosity was piqued, and he reached out to scoop up a piece of almond tofu as well.

"Smack...!"

Tang Yuehua slapped the back of his hand.

"???" Poison Douluo looked at Tang Yuehua blankly.

No way, I'm a titled Douluo, can't I even eat a piece of tofu?

Tang Yuehua smiled gently and shook her head, saying, "If Your Majesty the Poison Douluo likes it, you can offer it next time you come. But not today, and it's getting late..."

Tang Yuehua was practically ready to serve tea and see the guests off.

"..."

Poison Douluo was so angry he laughed, saying, "Master Tang, haven't you heard that Xiao has offended the Spirit Hall? It won't be long before they come to take revenge!"

"You think you can protect him? You can barely protect yourself, can you?"

"I'm taking Xiao away to my place. Not only will it prevent him from being found, but I can also heal his wounds. You should know that letting go is the right thing to do."

"Poison Douluo said calmly."

"..." Tang Yuehua bit her lip, feeling extremely resentful of her unreliable older brother.

It would have been so nice if you had just arrived, why haven't you arrived yet?

Without Tang Xiao's backing, she wouldn't have the confidence to say she could protect Xiao.

"I will leave with him," Xiao suddenly said.

Poison Douluo immediately revealed a smug smile.

"But you can't cure me," Xiao added truthfully.

Poison Douluo's face immediately turned embarrassed, and he said angrily, "Fine! Just you wait and see! I'll heal you! And then I'll poison you again!"
