Soul Devouring Demon Spider?!

"Puff!"

A mouthful of blood spurted from Xiao Hongchen's mouth as he collapsed amidst the ruins. He felt as if all the bones in his body were broken, his Martial Soul was on the verge of shattering, and even standing up was a luxury.

"Elder brother!"

"Don't come any closer, run!" Xiao Hongchen shouted urgently, straining her voice as she watched her younger sister rushing towards her.

"Trying to leave? Hehehe~" The mysterious man let out a strange laugh, then grabbed at Meng Hongchen with his large hand, instantly locking her in place.

"What... what are you going to do?" Meng Hongchen trembled as she watched the mysterious person slowly walking towards her, her face turning deathly pale.

"Why? You'll find out soon enough."

"Waaaaah, let me go, you bastard! Brother, save me!"

Xiao Hongchen, who had collapsed to the ground, could only watch helplessly as the mysterious man forcibly pulled his beloved younger sister into his arms. What happened next made his eyes widen in horror.

"Hehehe, watch closely, this is how Meng Hongchen uses it!"

"Waaaaah, brother, please save your sister!"

"Oh my god~ Waaah, brother, don't look, don't..."

Seeing this, Xiao Hongchen's eyes turned bloodshot, and he gasped for breath, but his internal injuries only allowed him to helplessly shout, "You damned bastard, let go of Meng!!!"

"Let me go, you dream!!!"

Elder Ma:?

Ma Rulong:??

Meng Hongchen:???

A roar filled with helplessness rang out, instantly waking Xiao Hongchen from his stool. Looking at the familiar surroundings and the strange expressions on the faces of the crowd, he finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Thank goodness, it was just a dream.

Xiao Hongchen was panting heavily when he realized that his back was already soaked with sweat.

"Xiao, what's wrong with you?" Looking at her strangely behaving older brother, Meng Hongchen blinked, then moved her chair away in disgust.

"I'm fine, I just had a nightmare."

Xiao Hongchen waved his hand, looked at his adorable younger sister, and suddenly remembered a scene from his dream.

Thinking of this, Xiao Hongchen quickly and solemnly assured him, "Meng, don't worry, as long as your brother is here, no one can hurt you unless they step over my dead body!"

Meng Hongchen:...

"Are you sick?" Meng Hongchen felt a chill run down her spine, and she felt goosebumps all over her body.

If it weren't for the fact that you're my brother, I would have kicked you long ago!

Xiao Hongchen also felt a little embarrassed, ignoring the gazes of the others around him, and resumed his aloof demeanor.

Well, as long as I'm not embarrassed, then it's others who are embarrassed.

As time passed, the meeting of the Sun Moon Imperial Soul Engineering Academy came to an end, and Xiao Hongchen went straight back to his room.

Looking at his handsome reflection in the mirror, the scene from his dream kept replaying in his mind.

"Hehe, in the end it's just a dream. What decent person would use a golden harpoon as a weapon?" Xiao Hongchen smiled in relief, then struck all sorts of strange poses in front of the mirror.

"Hmph, when the sun rises tomorrow, I will still be the greatest genius of the Sun Moon Empire in a thousand years!"

Sea God Village.

"Waaaaah, is this Dad... Lord Sea God's past love? It's so touching!" Tang Wutong nestled in Xiang Jun's arms, her little face streaked with tears, making Gu Yuena grit her teeth in frustration.

Get out of my way! That's my fiancé!

"Alright, alright, stop crying. Your makeup is all ruined." Although she had a lot of unspoken thoughts in her heart, Dao Xiang Jun still gently comforted her.

"Oops!"

Tang Wutong gasped, then sniffed and looked at Xiang Jun expectantly. "If one day, this princess also falls into such a state, Xiang Jun, will you do everything in your power to save me?"

Upon hearing this, Xiang Jun's lips twitched.

Of course, we should save him, but let's forget about that "Rise, my love."

"Then..."

"He's unwilling." Before Xiang Jun could finish speaking, Gu Yuena answered for him.

Tang Wutong's expression froze for a moment, then she was so angry that her teeth itched. "You bastard, say that again if you dare!"

I said, "Xiang Jun is unwilling."

"This princess thinks you want to fight!"

Seeing the two women on the verge of conflict, Xiang Jun could only shake her head helplessly and quickly separated them. "It's almost time, you two stop fighting."

"Hmph!" ×2

When Xiang Jun and the other two walked out of the theater, it was already completely dark.

"Let's go, let's clean up the mess in the forest behind the mountain, and then we'll head towards Star Luo City." Looking up at the sky, Xiang Jun headed straight for the back mountain.

Seeing this, Tang Wutong and Gu Yuena quickly followed.

A dark cloud silently obscured the moon, and night enveloped the forest. In the pitch-black darkness, one could not see their own hand in front of their face, and only the incessant chirping of insects could be heard, which made one feel inexplicably uneasy.

"Ugh, this place is so eerie." Looking at the pitch black surroundings, Tang Wutong couldn't help but shiver and instinctively leaned towards Xiang Jun.

"If you're scared, you can go back. Xiang Jun and I are enough," Gu Yuena said calmly, her eyes constantly scanning their surroundings.

"You... wait, you're not scared too, are you?" Tang Wutong was about to retort when she caught Gu Yuena's little movements, and then changed her tone, teasingly asking.

"Scared? I'm not as cowardly as you."

"Really? Then why are you holding Xiang Jun's arm?"

A blush crossed Gu Yuena's pretty face after she was exposed, but she showed no sign of letting go.

The three walked and stopped intermittently. The entire forest was eerily quiet, with only the chirping of insects and the rustling of leaves in the wind.

"This is Ten-Year Solitary Bamboo? It looks like something has absorbed the Life Ancient Tree." Xiang Jun looked at the withered Lone Bamboo in front of her and then fell into deep thought.

Judging from the methods used, it certainly resembles the work of Evil Soul Master.

As the three continued deeper into the area, the surrounding scenery became increasingly desolate.

Aside from the countless skeletons of Ten-Year Soul Beast scattered everywhere, even Plant-type Soul Beast like the Lone Bamboo Blue Silver Grass had withered away.

Just then, Xiang Jun suddenly noticed a very subtle fluctuation of Soul Power in the distance ahead.

Then came an extremely repulsive and evil aura.

Gu Yuena and Tang Wutong also sensed the evil aura, and their pretty faces immediately turned serious.

It's actually the ultimate evil attribute?!

Xiang Jun narrowed her eyes slightly and turned to warn, "It might be just ahead, be careful."

Gu Yuena and Tang Wutong nodded, and the three of them immediately suppressed their auras to the lowest possible level.

As they ventured deeper into the heart of the forest, the number of skeletons around them increased, and a strong stench of blood filled the air. Occasionally, a few white Spirit Ring could be seen floating above the skeletons.

Hiss!
