69 -66: Eliminate Evil, Return to the Royal City!
“Whoosh!” The bag containing the head of the Shadow Spider Queen flew towards the gang of thieves.
Suddenly, the gloomy man and his dozen subordinates all crazily rushed toward the head.
If the head of this noble creature were to shatter on the ground, that would mean losing out on more than a thousand Gold Coins.
In just one second, more than a dozen men hurriedly surrounded the head of the Shadow Spider Queen.
The gloomy man was the first to reach it, and with a fierce motion, he caught the bag and looked inside.
Sure enough, it was the head of the Shadow Spider Queen.
Fortunately, the entire head was intact.
However, there seemed to be some noise inside, as if water was boiling.
But no matter, more than a thousand Gold Coins were already in hand.
“Attack, take the beauty back, and completely dismember this pretty boy to sell off.
Even the Black Widow wouldn’t know it was us who killed him,” the gloomy man said coldly.
Then, the dozen men directly charged toward Lanling, aiming to snatch away Ye Jingyu and kill Lanling.
Although Ye Jingyu was extremely weak, she immediately positioned herself in front of Lanling.
Inside, Lanling prayed incessantly, “Explode, please explode; otherwise, my life is definitely over.”
Even though his plan was sound, if the boiling power wasn’t enough to blow up the head of the spider, it would truly be a complete tragedy.
He would undoubtedly die, and Ye Jingyu was in a state where she could neither live nor die.
At that moment, the limestone inside the head of the Shadow Spider Queen fiercely reacted after absorbing water, reaching a critical temperature and boiling everything inside.
Countless steam couldn’t find an escape, started to condense, condense…
After reaching the limit of pressure, it exploded violently like the burst of a thermos bottle liner.
“Bang…” The toxic water mixed with the spider’s brain matter splattered everywhere.
At that moment, the gang of thieves were all crowded in the narrow cave tunnel, closely gathered around to look at the Shadow Spider Queen’s head worth over a thousand Gold Coins, so not a single one escaped.
The dreadful toxic water, the venom, sprayed all over them, on their faces.
The leader of the gang, the gloomy man, was at the closest distance and got the fearful venom all over his face and head.
“Ahh… Ahh…” Amidst the chilling screams, his entire head gruesomely melted away.
Pieces of flesh rotted and fell off, and both his eyeballs turned into mushy pulp.
The entire scene was utterly horrifying.
Even those who only got splashed with a few drops found the venom swiftly corroding their skin, penetrating deep into their stomachs, starting to eat away at their organs.
Instantly, more than a dozen men writhed on the ground, screaming in agony, their whole bodies corroding and rotting away in an intensely gruesome scene akin to hell.
Seeing this, Ye Jingyu felt an unprecedented sense of pleasure, looking at Lanling with complete astonishment.
She had not expected him to use such a scheme to kill the gang of thieves.
Seeing the thieves rolling on the ground, screaming in pain, Lanling immediately picked up his bow and arrows.
Drawing the bow and setting an arrow, one shot for each.
“Swoosh swoosh swoosh swoosh swoosh…”
After a dozen arrows, all of them were shot dead, and he devoured their Bloodline Dragon Forces completely.
Unfortunately, the high-level Samurai among them, the gloomy man, had already been poisoned to death, so his Bloodline Dragon Force couldn’t be consumed.
However, consuming the Dragon Forces of the other dozen Martial Artists was quite the haul as well.
After the devouring, Yao Xing let out an incredibly comfortable sound.
And Lanling looked at Ye Jingyu, smiled slightly, and said, “Alright, let’s go home.
Sister must be worried by now.”
Ye Jingyu stared blankly at Lanling, then her eyes slowly reddened, and she suddenly hugged Lanling very, very tightly, almost making it hard for him to breathe.
“You fool, you big fool, why did you come back?
Why did you come back?” Ye Jingyu said while hugging tightly and pounding on Lanling’s back.
…
Having fled dozens of miles away from the Shadow Spider Queen’s cave, they arrived at the clear lake.
Ye Jingyu’s first priority wasn’t to eat but to strip herself clean and then plunge into the waters of the lake.
For more than ten days, stuck in spider silk and unable to bathe, she felt like she was going insane; she was someone accustomed to bathing twice a day.
In the lake, she drank water in big gulps and swam around joyfully.
Meanwhile, Lanling had shot a few wild rabbits and was roasting them over the fire, waiting for Ye Jingyu to finish her bath and come up for a meal.
But Ye Jingyu, that crazy woman, actually bathed for two hours without coming up, as if she would never get the chance to bathe again in her lifetime.
“That’s enough already, you’re going to soak yourself into ruin,” Lanling said, “Come up and eat.”
Reluctantly, Ye Jingyu climbed ashore and sat naked across from Lanling, grabbed the roasted rabbit, and wolfed it down.
Without food for more than ten days, Ye Jingyu had lost weight, but since she was previously very fit and toned, her figure still looked very good even after slimming down.
This caught Lanling off guard, and he didn’t know where to look, causing his breathing to become utterly labored.
“Aren’t you going to put on your clothes?” Lanling asked.
“I only have one set of clothes, and they’re not dry yet, so I can’t wear them,” Ye Jingyu replied.
Taking a deep breath, Lanling tried to keep his eyes steady, staring at the fire.
“Was everything you told them true?” Ye Jingyu asked, “That woman, is she really the Black Widow?”
Lanling nodded and said, “It was her.”
“Then, how did you survive?” Ye Jingyu asked with lingering fear.
“It’s complicated, you could say it was a close escape from death,” Lanling said, then he pointed to his neck, showing Ye Jingyu the wound left by Meng Tuoluo biting and sucking his blood.
Seeing this, Ye Jingyu shuddered and immediately went over, gently touching the wound on Lanling’s neck, saying, “It must have really hurt at the time.”
“It didn’t hurt that much, just felt somewhat cold,” Lanling remarked.
Ye Jingyu said no more but continued to gently caress the wound on Lanling’s neck as if by doing so, she could soothe his fear and pain from that moment.
“We need to hurry on our way, there are only four days left until the final exams for graduation; sister must be getting anxious,” Lanling said.
Ye Jingyu nodded, then put on her dried clothes, and the two mounted the barbarian steed, racing toward the direction of the South Barbarian Border City to the north.
“Lanling, what’s your current level of cultivation?” Ye Jingyu asked while on the back of the beast.
“I’m roughly a Level Three Samurai Archer,” Lanling responded.
Ye Jingyu was so astonished that she fell silent for a while, then said, “You’re really a monster; you’re definitely destined to shock the whole world.”
Ye Jingyu was thoroughly amazed.
To progress from a novice to a Level Three Samurai Archer would take even a highly gifted martial artist several years.
Lanling had accomplished it in just over three months.
“Ling, this time you return to the Royal City, you’ll blow everyone’s mind,” Ye Jingyu said, “Not just the lady, but Lord Suo Hanyi, and Commandery Princess Zhining too; basically, everyone’s mind will be blown.”
The two rode the beast, galloping all the way.
They stopped a few dozen miles from the South Barbarian Border City, as the mount, being a steed from the Barbarian Tribes of the vast mountains, was not allowed to enter the Human Kingdom.
Reliant on their legs, they ran all the way to the South Barbarian Border City, and without any time for rest, they spent a lot of money to hire two of the most majestic horses and dashed toward the direction of the Royal City at full speed.
Because, there were only four days left for the Royal City Academy’s final graduation exam.
