Bai Ge's Twisted Sense of Humor

"Isn't that a Man Faced Demon Spider's Spider Leg?"

Looking at Tang San, then at the Man Faced Demon Spider's corpse on the other side, everyone was shocked to discover that the objects growing from Tang San's back looked extremely similar to the Man Faced Demon Spider's Spider Legs.

They were just thinner overall, yet appeared more lustrous, even giving off a faintly sweet fragrance.

Zhao Wuji had seen quite a few cases of Spirit Masters absorbing Spirit Rings, but this was the first time in his life he had witnessed such a scene. For a moment, he lost the ability to judge the situation.

The strange occurrence was not over yet. After the eight Spider Legs stretched out from Tang San's back, they began to pulse slightly. The four lower legs slowly pierced into the ground, actually lifting Tang San's cross-legged body from the ground and sending him into the air.

At that moment, Tang San looked as if he had gained eight three-meter-long arms, appearing extraordinarily bizarre.

Tang San's body finally stopped convulsing, but his clothes had already been completely shredded. Gradually, the Blue Silver Grass that had extended earlier slowly curled back, wrapping Tang San inside like a giant cocoon.

Only the eight Spider Legs outside continued to pulse slowly.

Faintly, the Shrek group could only hear the constant crackling sounds of bones from within the cocoon.

Ma Hongjun could not help saying, "Tang San isn't going to turn into a giant spider, is he?"

Xiao Wu shot him a fierce glare. "Impossible. How could Xiao San turn into a spider?

This must be some mutation caused by the Spirit Ring he absorbed.

He'll definitely be fine."

One shichen passed, then two.

The sky gradually changed from darkness to light, then from light back into darkness.

The full twelve hours of waiting left everyone exhausted.

Except for Bai Ge. But everyone had grown used to it.

In the eyes of the Shrek group, there seemed to be nothing that could ever make him nervous.

Even when facing the Titan Giant Ape earlier, he had still held Ning Rongrong in his arms, flying through the sky and looking down at it.

Under Zhao Wuji's arrangements, everyone took turns resting. Only Xiao Wu refused no matter what, keeping watch beneath Tang San the entire time.

She prayed silently in her heart, praying that Tang San would safely make it through this ordeal.

"Mm—" A faint groan startled awake Xiao Wu, whose mind had already grown somewhat hazy.

She hurriedly looked up.

The long Blue Silver Grass slowly unfurled, each strand stretching outward and gradually revealing the person within.

Tang San's body was covered in a layer of brownish-black material. As the Blue Silver Grass spread apart, these brownish-black objects gradually peeled away from him like fallen nutshells, exposing the body beneath.

When Xiao Wu saw Tang San's body again, her pretty face immediately flushed crimson with embarrassment.

Tang San's muscles had become extremely defined. They were not exaggeratedly bulging, but they looked full of strength.

A faint purple glow flowed beneath his bronze skin. His entire body floated in midair, and he seemed to radiate an eerie, sinister aura.

Amid Tang San's messy black hair was an extremely conspicuous lock of purple hair. The purple strand itself seemed to emit a sheen, allowing Xiao Wu to see it clearly.

At that moment, Tang San's eyes were slowly opening, his gaze filled with confusion.

Even Tang San himself did not know what had happened. He only felt that he had been enduring and bearing extreme pain all this time.

Everything before his eyes was hazy, as if veiled by a layer of white gauze.

All kinds of sensations gradually returned to his body. As his mind steadily cleared, the scenery before Tang San also slowly came into focus.

His body felt indescribably comfortable, as if every cell within him was cheering and leaping with joy. Only his back felt somewhat itchy, as though something had extended out from it.

He could sense the dampness of the soil and the breeze in the surrounding air, yet Tang San vaguely felt that something had changed.

The others had also noticed Tang San's transformation. Zhu Zhuqing and Ning Rongrong hurriedly turned around in embarrassment when they saw his naked body, not daring to look again.

Though Xiao Wu was equally shy, Tang San's safety mattered more to her.

Two yellow and one purple Spirit Rings pulsed up and down around Tang San's body. The purple Spirit Ring was especially conspicuous, bright and translucent within its violet hue.

All the Blue Silver Grass around Tang San had quietly vanished. Only the eight enormous three-meter-long Spider Legs on his back remained.

"Brother—" Xiao Wu could not help calling softly.

The sudden voice startled Tang San. That voice was far too familiar to him, and far too dearly missed. Instinctively, he looked in its direction and saw Xiao Wu gazing up at him.

Tang San's body trembled violently, and he immediately wanted to pounce toward Xiao Wu. But his body was currently suspended in midair by four Spider Legs.

Those Spider Legs were also part of his body. With a thought, he naturally retracted them, pulling them out of the ground.

Tang San immediately lost his balance and fell from the air.

"Careful!" Xiao Wu cried out, spreading her arms to catch Tang San. Fortunately, she was quite strong, and the impact from Tang San's fall from just over two meters was not too great, allowing Xiao Wu to catch him perfectly.

The eight Spider Legs on his back simultaneously swept upward behind him. They looked strange, but did not affect Tang San's movements.

Tang San held Xiao Wu as they gazed deeply into each other's eyes. However—

"Ahem, ahem."

The coughing from the side jolted the two, overwhelmed by both grief and joy, back to their senses.

Dai Mubai was the one coughing. "Xiao San, could you at least put on a pair of pants first? There are other girls here, after all."

Tang San froze for a moment. Xiao Wu also came to her senses, and her pretty face instantly turned crimson. She hurriedly closed her eyes, yet still could not bear to leave Xiao San's embrace.

She merely buried her head in his chest, refusing to lift it.

"Um... how did I become like this? Who took off my clothes?" Tang San asked stupidly.

Oscar popped out from the side. "No one took off your clothes. Who knows how they disappeared?"

Tang San reached toward his waist. Thankfully, Twenty-Four Bridges on a Moonlit Night was still there. He hurriedly and gently pushed Xiao Wu away, swiftly taking out a set of clothes and putting them on.

Putting on his pants was fine, but when he tried to put on his shirt, a problem arose. Only then did Tang San notice the abnormality on his back.

When he saw the eight sharp Spider Legs growing from his back, he could not help freezing as well.

Ma Hongjun said with great understanding, "Don't ask us why this happened. None of us knows.

This happened while you were absorbing that Man Faced Demon Spider's Spirit Ring. Tang San, did your Spirit Ring mutate?"

"External Soul Bone," Bai Ge's calm voice rang out.

Everyone turned toward Bai Ge and saw a pair of enormous silver wings behind him.

They were precisely the External Soul Bone obtained from the Silver Emperor Skyfalcon.

"Soul bones apart from the skull, left and right arm bones, left and right leg bones, and torso bone.

Those are External Soul Bones."

Dai Mubai's face turned green. "So you watched us panic."

"It was quite interesting, wasn't it? Besides, Xiao San turned misfortune into fortune. There was no danger.

What do you think, Mubai? Surprised? Unexpected?"

Bai Ge wore an expression of sheer malicious amusement.

Looking at Dai Mubai, Ning Rongrong could not help observing a moment of silence in her heart. You can experience Brother Bai Ge's black-hearted side properly now.

At that thought, Ning Rongrong could not help shivering.

If Bai Ge could rein in the Little Witch who gave even two Titled Douluo headaches, how could he possibly be an ordinary person?
