Tang Sect, Man Faced Demon Spider (Part 1)

"Fuck, someone took my shed skin?!"

Sky Dream Ice Silkworm jolted upright from his dying state. A little silkworm somehow pulled off a carp leap, looking outside through Huo Yuhao's eyes just in time to see Ling Bai put the white membrane into his Storage Soul Tool.

"NO!!!"

Sky Dream Ice Silkworm threw back his head and howled. The way he stared at Ling Bai was somewhere between a man avenging his father's murder and a grief-stricken wife whose gambling-addicted husband had lost everything.

Though he was roaring madly inside, telling himself to snatch his shed skin back, Sky Dream Ice Silkworm's remaining reason told him that he only wanted to create a god as an Intelligent Soul Ring, while that guy opposite him clearly already possessed Divine Might.

In other words, Ling Bai was very likely the inheritor of some god, or at worst, an extremely close junior. Rashly provoking Ling Bai now would not be a wise move for either Sky Dream Ice Silkworm or Huo Yuhao.

Sky Dream Ice Silkworm hated it so much his teeth itched, but he had no choice but to swallow this loss.

Thirty years east of the river, thirty years west of the river. Don't bully a young... old silkworm because he's poor!

"Bai Ge, what happened?"

Ning Tian and Wu Feng woke from the spiritual domain, their eyes carrying a trace of confusion and a strange feeling as though lifetimes had passed.

"Nothing."

Ling Bai smiled. There was no need for them to know Electrolux's and Sky Dream Ice Silkworm's secrets. Sometimes, being confused was better than being clear-headed.

"Yuhao! Yuhao!"

In the distance, two figures raced toward them at great speed.

A boy and a girl, both seeming to be fourteen or fifteen. The girl had a lively oval face, long black hair tied into a long ponytail, and large, bright eyes. She was clearly a beauty in the making.

The boy was tall and straight, his short dark-blue hair gleaming like gemstones. His handsome features carried a hint of refinement, and even while hurrying along, his gaze kept drifting toward the girl beside him.

"Big Brother Bei Bei, Sister Tang Ya!"

Huo Yuhao recognized the arrivals as Bei Bei and Tang Ya, whom he had met once before, and immediately waved in delight.

Everything that had just happened indicated that Ling Bai, standing not far away, was extremely dangerous. Sky Dream Ice Silkworm had also repeatedly warned him that he absolutely could not provoke that monster!

Bei Bei and Tang Ya's arrival gave Huo Yuhao a little more sense of security. His taut body and nerves gradually relaxed.

"Sorry, little Yuhao, we came too late!"

The two quickly stopped beside Huo Yuhao. Seeing the Wind Baboon's mangled corpse on the ground and Huo Yuhao's injuries, their faces filled with lingering fear and concern.

"It's alright, Sister Tang Ya." Huo Yuhao shook his head. "A blessing in disguise—I killed the Wind Baboon and obtained my First Soul Ring."

Sky Dream Ice Silkworm's million-year Soul Ring X

Wind Baboon's ten-year Soul Ring

"A ten-year Soul Ring..."

Bei Bei frowned slightly. When they had met before, Huo Yuhao had not revealed that his Spirit Eyes martial soul was of the spiritual type. He simply felt that a ten-year Soul Ring might delay Huo Yuhao's future.

"It's no big deal. You can look for a hundred-year soul beast for your Second Soul Ring!"

Tang Ya had always been carefree. In her eyes, it was already incredibly lucky that Huo Yuhao had survived; things like Soul Rings were minor matters. Then...

She caught sight of Ling Bai's group of three by accident. Her beautiful eyes instantly widened like bells, and she cried out instinctively:

"Bei Bei! Bei Bei! Look at how good-looking they are! Especially that handsome little guy—he's amazing!"

Bei Bei looked speechlessly at his airheaded girlfriend, but he had to admit it.

The looks of the three before them really were...

Bei Bei racked his brains for a long time, but in the end, he could only come up with two words.

Heaven-defying.

White crystal high heels, a light-blue fitted skirt suit, and luxurious ornaments in her platinum-blond hair. Even Bei Bei, who had seen countless beauties at the academy, had to admit that Ning Tian was excessively beautiful.

Her innate charm was something ordinary people could never compare to. Anyone who saw this girl would sigh at how unfair God was. Only such unfairness could have sculpted the genetic beauty she possessed. Looking at Ning Tian, Bei Bei could practically imagine the suffocating string of peerless beauties in her family tree.

Although Wu Feng's appearance did not match Ning Tian's, she absolutely deserved to be called a beauty. Her figure had also begun to take shape, with a hot, curvaceous body that made the slightly older Tang Ya lower her head to stare at herself, a wave of inferiority rising within her!

"Stop looking! Stop looking!"

Tang Ya bared her teeth and claws as she covered Bei Bei's eyes, glaring at Ling Bai in exasperation.

Damn it, my boyfriend gets to look at pretty girls, so I get to look at handsome guys too!

Eh, he really is handsome!

Slurp, slurp!

Bei Bei helplessly moved Tang Ya's little hand aside and openly looked at Ling Bai. He considered his own looks to be eye-catching enough, yet before Ling Bai's face, he was still utterly crushed.

That handsome, jade-carved face seemed as if it had been meticulously sculpted, without the slightest flaw. His brilliant golden eyes shone like suns, yet carried a trace of calmness and laziness. Long golden hair matching his eyes fell to his waist, inexplicably reminding one of the radiance of the mighty sun. One glance was enough to make it impossible to look away for a long time.

Bei Bei and Tang Ya had to admit that standing beside such a trio would create immense psychological pressure from being crushed in terms of looks.

Bei Bei was the first to recover. He stepped forward of his own accord, the smile on his handsome face flawless, and said loudly:

"Hello, my name is Bei Bei. This is my girlfriend, Tang Ya, and my little brother, Huo Yuhao. Tang Ya and I are both students of Shrek Academy. Thank you for protecting Yuhao for a while before we arrived."

"Oh, Shrek Academy?"

Wu Feng tilted her head. "Then that means you should be upperclassmen?"

"Could it be that you're also..." Bei Bei suddenly realized.

"Hello, Senior Bei Bei, Senior Tang Ya." Ling Bai picked up the conversation. "My name is Ling Bai. These are my companions, Ning Tian and Wu Feng. We're this year's new students at Shrek Academy, from the Heaven Dou Empire."

At that, Tang Ya's lively eyes immediately lit up. "What a coincidence, Junior Ling! Bei Bei and I are from the Heaven Dou Empire too. We're all fellow countrymen. If you run into any trouble at the academy, just give them your senior sister's name. No need for the small stuff, and I can't handle the big stuff!"

"Six."

Ling Bai could not help looking at Tang Ya in a new light. So whether it was a big matter or a small one, giving her name was useless!

What a wonderfully thunderstruck good person you are!

Ning Tian and Wu Feng stood prettily at Ling Bai's sides, the corners of their rosy lips unable to resist curling upward. Clearly, Tang Ya's overbearing self-introduction had amused them as well.

"Wait a moment!"

Bei Bei hurriedly pulled Tang Ya behind him, coughed lightly to ease the awkwardness, and said seriously:

"Junior brother and junior sisters, since we've met in the Star Dou Great Forest, I assume you came here to obtain Soul Rings."

"Yes, I need a Soul Ring." Ling Bai nodded slightly.

"Just so happens that Xiaoya needs a Soul Ring too. Since we're all Shrek Academy students, how about forming a temporary team? We can hunt soul beasts together, then return to the academy to report in."
