Party Time

"We've known each other for almost six years, right? Round that up and we've practically been classmates for ten years. Is there really no way that doesn't involve sacrificing me?"

"Fuck, I'm about to lose it again. Think of something, quick!"

"What the fuck does that have to do with me?! Who told you idiots not to know gratitude? I helped you avoid the whipping, and I spared you from soaking QQ in chili water, yet you ungrateful bastards are blaming me?"

"Bang!"

As Luo Yihe spoke, he realized Tang San had disappeared!

When he turned around, Tang San was running back with one hand clutching his head and the other gripping his pants.

"Fuck! I ran into a tree!"

Compared to the bump Luo Yihe got last time he ran into a tree, Tang San's injury was clearly much worse!

Half his face was covered in blood, but he did not dare stop. He could not stop for even a single step.

At that moment, Xiao Chenghe suddenly woke up groggily.

"Brother Luo, what are we doing? Why are we bouncing around like this?"

Luo Yihe said in delight, ٩(๑>◡<๑)۶ "Hey, Big Bear, you're finally awake."

Tang San cut in, "Xiao Chenghe, you're finally awake. Quick, help us hold back that Man-Faced Demon Spider behind us."

Xiao Chenghe and Luo Yihe said in unison, "Fuck off!"

{Ding...}

"Brother Luo, what's the plan now?"

"Kill it!"

Luo Yihe spoke with murderous intent.

Xiao Chenghe turned his gaze toward the Man-Faced Demon Spider and declared confidently, ✧(≖◡≖✿) "Don't worry. Leave it to me."

As he spoke, Xiao Chenghe flipped over and jumped down from Luo Yihe's shoulder.

Just as he was about to throw out a few harsh words and show off, Luo Yihe grabbed Zhu Zhuqing and Tang San and darted past him like a gust of wind!

Running away in a panic!

"Run~~"

While Xiao Chenghe was still utterly bewildered, a Man-Faced Demon Spider seven or eight meters tall appeared before him.

(|||ﾟдﾟ) "Holy shit, it's huge!"

A bead of cold sweat slid down Xiao Chenghe's forehead!

Two seconds later...

He took half a step back, turned around, and ran!

Fight my ass!

It was a ten-thousand-year Man-Faced Demon Spider, and judging by its size, it was more than twenty thousand years old. Killing a human six-ring Soul Emperor would be no problem at all, and killing a Soul Sage like Li Yusong would be no problem either.

By himself, he would not even be enough to fill the Man-Faced Demon Spider's stomach!

Now the three of them were sprinting through the forest. Zhu Zhuqing's stamina had already given out, and Luo Yihe was carrying her on his back as he ran.

Against a ten-thousand-year Man-Faced Demon Spider, if these three runners had been replaced by anyone at the same rank or even one or two rings higher, they would have died long ago.

How could they possibly keep running like this? Even Zhu Zhuqing could not withstand an escape at such intensity.

"I remember there's a lake up ahead. We'll lure it over there and kill it somewhere open."

Luo Yihe spoke with murderous intent.

"No problem!" ×3

Luo Yihe looked at Zhu Zhuqing on his back. "You..."

Before Luo Yihe could finish, Zhu Zhuqing said, "I'm fine. I've rested enough already!"

Zhu Zhuqing had thought she was already qualified to stand at Luo Yihe's side. But after everything that had happened tonight, she realized that she might not even measure up to Tang San.

She felt a little despondent again. She had once believed herself to be a super genius, only to discover that a genius like her was merely at the threshold of meeting people like Luo Yihe and the others. Though she did not want to admit it, that was the truth.

Soon, a lake appeared before them.

The group immediately possessed their martial souls and revealed their soul rings. Only Luo Yihe remained exactly as he was.

The Man-Faced Demon Spider's enormous body crashed out like a massive truck.

A violet glow appeared in Tang San's eyes, and his third soul ring beneath his feet began to shine. "Third Soul Skill, Spiderweb Binding."

A Rune Battle Bear appeared behind Xiao Chenghe, lightning flowing through his eyes. "Thunderfall!"

A web shot straight at the Man-Faced Demon Spider's face. Just as it leaped aside, a bolt of blue lightning struck down from above.

"Roar~"

The Man-Faced Demon Spider let out an angry roar and charged at Xiao Chenghe. Luo Yihe reacted swiftly, already taking Xiao Chenghe away before the spider reached him.

Zhu Zhuqing followed up with an attack, her third soul ring lighting up. "Third Soul Skill, Netherworld Space Slash."

A dark purple blade of energy sliced directly across the Man-Faced Demon Spider's back.

Hm? No damage?

Zhu Zhuqing: "..."

She suddenly did not want to fight anymore. She did not want to speak either.

In the instant Zhu Zhuqing lost focus, a web rapidly spread toward her.

Luo Yihe had been watching her the whole time. He instantly teleported to Zhu Zhuqing's side, and the moment he grabbed her hand, he teleported again.

Xiao Chenghe charged directly at the Man-Faced Demon Spider.

Both bear paws were covered in lightning as they clawed viciously at the Man-Faced Demon Spider.

"Roar~"

The Man-Faced Demon Spider howled in pain and furiously stabbed toward Xiao Chenghe. Xiao Chenghe raised a defense with lightning, but the Man-Faced Demon Spider easily shattered it. Xiao Chenghe was sent flying, smashing through two towering trees.

Tang San was not idle either, constantly holding small throwing knives and trying to attack the Man-Faced Demon Spider's abdomen.

Tang San and Zhu Zhuqing circled the Man-Faced Demon Spider, constantly trying to leave wounds on its body or abdomen.

Whenever Zhu Zhuqing was about to be hit, Luo Yihe appeared right on time to take her away. Whenever Tang San was about to be hit and could not dodge, Luo Yihe would also kick Tang San in the face before the Man-Faced Demon Spider could strike him, saving him from the spider legs.

"Luo Yihe, do you have to treat us so differently?"

(¬_¬) "You can't blame me. Your face is the only clean part of you. If I don't kick you in the face, what am I supposed to do, slap you? You'd be even more unhappy then!"

"Fuck you."

Xiao Chenghe, who had been sent flying, soon ran back. Luo Yihe pulled a divine axe from the system space. Its blade glinted with cold light, lightning wrapped around its body, and it radiated a heavy, domineering aura.

This was the Storm Battle Axe Luo Yihe had drawn. The moment he got it, he knew it would definitely suit Xiao Chenghe.

"Big Bear, catch the axe!"

Luo Yihe threw it toward Xiao Chenghe.

After Xiao Chenghe caught the divine axe, his presence rose to a whole new level, and the lightning around him became even more violent.

Xiao Chenghe leaped high into the air, wielding the Storm Battle Axe as he gathered the power of a thunderstorm and slashed viciously down at the Man-Faced Demon Spider. Its front two spider legs crossed to block the strike.

Xiao Chenghe still did not retreat in the slightest. The phantom of a massive axe covered in thunderstorm energy illuminated the entire Star Dou Forest.

"Huh? What's that?"

Countless gazes turned toward the axe phantom. Since Luo Yihe and the others were not from Spirit Hall, no one from Spirit Hall had chased after them to investigate when they fled.

Thus, there was no one else around Luo Yihe and the others.

In the core region of the Star Dou Forest, the Silver Dragon King blinked once more. Her gaze crossed countless distances to look at Luo Yihe and the others, locking onto the young man wielding a giant thunder axe with a Rune Battle Bear behind him.

"Di Tian, come see me."

"Awesome!"

"Unbelievably cool."

Accompanied by an unwilling roar, the Man-Faced Demon Spider was split in half by Xiao Chenghe's axe.
