Chapter 9: Tang Ya Makes Her Move, Bei Bei's Jealousy
Huo Yuhao dodged the Man-Faced Demon Spider's lunge with a swift sidestep.
Tightening his grip on the White Tiger Dagger, he stabbed the demon spider's abdomen several times, then followed up with two flying kicks to its head.
However, the Man-Faced Demon Spider didn't fall as expected; instead, Huo Yuhao was surprised to find it growing stronger with each attack, not retreating but charging towards him.
“Bang!”
He landed on both feet, his body steadying.
The White Tiger Dagger flashed, aiming for the Man-Faced Demon Spider's eyes.
But this time, he clearly felt something was wrong.
Just as he was about to strike his target, he felt an immense, unparalleled force erupt from within the creature.
His attack was instantly neutralized, and then a gaping, blood-red maw appeared before him.
“Pfft, pfft!”
Several soft sounds followed one another; Huo Yuhao's shirt at his chest instantly tore, revealing a deep, bone-visible wound, gushing blood.
The Man-Faced Demon Spider seized the opportunity, biting into Huo Yuhao's shoulder with its sharp fangs.
The pain made Huo Yuhao's face contort, and his whole body trembled. More importantly, he could clearly feel a toxin being injected into his body through the torn wound.
This feeling was truly awful.
Indeed, his strength was still too weak, and this body was too frail, unable to reach the heights he desired.
Just then, the Man-Faced Demon Spider suddenly spat out a web, and Huo Yuhao, caught off guard, was directly bound to a large tree.
Holy crap!
It really was like a house leaking during a continuous night rain!
Huo Yuhao tried to move his body but found that it was gradually becoming numb.
Coupled with the inherent toughness of the spider web, breaking free in a short time was very unlikely!
Meanwhile, Bei Bei, who had been observing the battle, watched Huo Yuhao with cold eyes. Huo Yuhao being injured by the Man-Faced Demon Spider was exactly the outcome he wanted; he wished the demon spider would devour him right now!
Bei Bei was definitely not to be relied upon; now he could only depend on himself.
Looking at the Man-Faced Demon Spider approaching him, Huo Yuhao decided to fight to the death.
Just right, he still had two spirit abilities he hadn't used. He wondered if his current strength could still sustain them!
The Man-Faced Demon Spider stared coldly at Huo Yuhao, its two sharp spider legs like spears aiming for his heart.
“Spiritual Interference!”
Huo Yuhao's eyes flashed with an unusual light as he directly unleashed his spirit ability on the Man-Faced Demon Spider.
Under the effect of Spiritual Interference, the demon spider's two legs actually deviated, missing Huo Yuhao's body and landing on the tree trunk instead.
Huo Yuhao quickly broke free from the web and retreated rapidly.
At this moment, he no longer cared about conserving his strength and directly unleashed his other ability.
“Spiritual Shock!”
A peculiar ripple silently spread out, enveloping the Man-Faced Demon Spider.
The Man-Faced Demon Spider, which had been preparing to continue its pursuit, seemed to freeze in that instant, standing there motionless.
Huo Yuhao's eyes flashed with a cold glint, and he stomped his right foot, leaping into the air.
The White Tiger Dagger in his hand brought forth a brilliant blade light, slashing towards the Man-Faced Demon Spider's neck.
However, at this critical moment, an electric arc flashed, directly striking Huo Yuhao's body.
Huo Yuhao, hit by the lightning, fell heavily to the ground, clearly severely injured.
“Bei Bei, you…”
Huo Yuhao could tell who was responsible for the sneak attack with his toes.
No need to think, among those present who could unleash lightning attacks, there was no one but Bei Bei!
“Hmph! Kid, I admit you work hard, but your talent is truly too poor. You shouldn't have provoked Tang Ya. How could people like us be something you could covet?”
Bei Bei revealed a sinister smile. In front of Tang Ya, he would still pretend, acting like a gentle and refined senior disciple of the Tang Sect.
But now, he had shed his disguise, determined to achieve his goal at any cost!
Huo Yuhao's impression of Bei Bei plummeted to rock bottom. He hadn't expected Bei Bei to be such a narrow-minded person.
Not only did he not rescue him when he was attacked, but he also ambushed him from the shadows.
He was simply a hypocrite, just like his ancestor, Yu Xiaogang!
It's over!
He had only acquired his golden finger two days ago and hadn't even had time to enjoy it. Was he going to kick the bucket already?
Huo Yuhao felt he was too unlucky. He had just transmigrated and encountered a female baboon, almost losing his virginity.
And now, he encountered the Man-Faced Demon Spider… Wait!
Female baboon?
Losing his virginity?
Huo Yuhao suddenly thought of something, so he quickly asked the system in his mind.
“System, I want to ask, is this Man-Faced Demon Spider male or female?”
【Ding! Detecting that this Man-Faced Demon Spider is male!】
“System, then can you make an exception and let me add a male to the Favorability System?”
【System: ...】
【No!】
Alright!
The dog system was still too conservative. It could cross species, but not genders. How useless!
He had originally intended to deal with the Man-Faced Demon Spider like he did with the female baboon, but the dog system was uncooperative!
Seeing Huo Yuhao fall to the ground, the Man-Faced Demon Spider seized the opportunity and quickly approached him.
It's over!
This was completely Barbie Q'd!
He still wanted to abuse Tang Dog and build a harem. Was his entrepreneurial journey going to collapse halfway through?
Huo Yuhao wanted to stand up and run, but Bei Bei, that despicable scoundrel's lightning, had paralyzed his entire body, making it difficult to even move a finger, let alone escape!
Huo Yuhao closed his eyes, preparing to accept this final moment.
However, just as Huo Yuhao thought he was certainly dead, a beautiful and decisive voice rang out.
“Third Spirit Ability, Shara Snake Web!”
Dozens of small snakes formed a snake web that directly surrounded the Man-Faced Demon Spider. After a short attack, it completely devoured its body, leaving no bones behind!
“Yuhao, you’re poisoned!”
After dealing with the Man-Faced Demon Spider, Tang Ya quickly came to Huo Yuhao's side, pulled out a small green bottle from her in my arms, took out a pill, and fed it to Huo Yuhao.
This was an antidote pill, given to Tang Ya by Bei Bei before they came to the Star Dou Great Forest, for protection. It could neutralize all poisons and was extremely precious!
Seeing this, Bei Bei's jealousy grew even stronger!
He hadn't expected Tang Ya to suddenly appear when Huo Yuhao was about to die at the hands of the Man-Faced Demon Spider.
He also hadn't expected that Tang Ya, after absorbing her third spirit ring, not only immediately dealt with the Man-Faced Demon Spider but also gave the antidote pill he had given her to Huo Yuhao.
This made Bei Bei furious!
After taking the antidote pill, Huo Yuhao's complexion slowly turned rosy, and the Man-Faced Demon Spider's poison he had contracted was also neutralized by the antidote.
