Chapter 133 - 130: You Can Do It

"So it is Master Asura!" The white-haired old woman, Ling Wen, looked at Mo Qianqian before glancing at Ling Qingxue.

Seeing that Ling Qingxue was unharmed, Ling Wen turned her gaze back to Mo Qianqian. In a tone that was hard to read, she asked, "I wonder, Master Asura, if you would be willing to part with the Flame Demon Flower and give it to the Ling family?"

Her words carried a subtle threat. It even seemed as though they were sizing him up, contemplating whether to kill Mo Qianqian right then and there.

"Master Asura, our previous agreement still stands," Ling Qingxue chimed in. "Feel free to state your terms. As long as it is within the Ling family’s power, we are willing to offer anything."

"And if I refuse?" Mo Qianqian countered.

The expressions on Ling Wen and her two companions darkened.

"It doesn’t matter if you refuse. You fought for it, Master Asura. On the contrary, you also saved my life. I, Qingxue, owe you a great favor," Ling Qingxue said, her face the picture of sincerity.

"I’ll be taking this back with me. As for whether I’ll give it to the Ling family, we’ll see when the time comes," Mo Qianqian said. With that, he turned and left, remaining on high alert in case they made a move.

Right now, he couldn’t figure out if Ling Qingxue had genuinely wanted to ambush him. Logically speaking, if they were going to attack, they should have done so already. An expert at the Seventh Level of Tongyou Realm was present. The other two, along with Ling Qingxue, were also in the Tongyou Realm. They held an absolute advantage.

However, even as Mo Qianqian put a considerable distance between himself and the group, they made no move to attack.

"Has Ling Qingxue really stopped suspecting my identity? Is she not planning an ambush? Did she really just generously surrender the Flame Demon Flower to me?" Mo Qianqian wondered in astonishment.

But on second thought, a fake Mo Qianqian had already appeared and executed the Vast Spear Technique. Naturally, they wouldn’t believe he was Mo Qianqian anymore. It was perfectly normal for Ling Qingxue to try and win him over. As for whether she had tracked down the imposter, he didn’t care. Most likely, she hadn’t. After all, Zhongli Xuan’s escape method was brilliant, and her speed was simply too fast. As for Chu He, he had probably been shaken off by Ling Qingxue as well.

On the other side, seeing Mo Qianqian walk away, Ling Wen couldn’t help but look at Ling Qingxue.

Ling Qingxue simply shook her head. "A genius Second-Grade Spirit Master with a Bone-Eroding Spiritual Source is worth more than a single Flame Demon Flower. I don’t need it to break through to the next realm anyway."

Only then did Ling Wen and the other two abandon the idea of hunting down Mo Qianqian.

After putting dozens of miles between them, Mo Qianqian was finally certain that they hadn’t followed him.

"This Flame Demon Flower really fell into my lap!" he said, preparing to enter the Ninefold Coffin to refine the herb.

Just then, the mysterious woman’s voice rang out again. "There might be a surprise waiting for you about ten miles ahead."

"Oh?" Mo Qianqian’s eyes lit up. Following the mysterious woman’s directions, he quickly moved forward.

It didn’t take long for him to arrive at a valley. It looked entirely ordinary, not like a place that would hide anything special. Scanning his surroundings, Mo Qianqian asked in confusion, "Senior, there doesn’t seem to be anything here."

"There’s a cave off to the side," the mysterious woman replied.

Mo Qianqian looked over and approached. Indeed, there was a cave entrance about five feet wide.

"Is it dangerous?" Mo Qianqian asked.

"Why don’t you go in and see for yourself?" The mysterious woman’s voice carried a hint of amusement.

Hearing this, Mo Qianqian summoned his Spirit Body, letting it take the lead while he followed closely behind into the cave.

The cavern widened as he ventured deeper. After walking for several dozen feet, he reached a lava cavern that spanned seventy or eighty feet in diameter.

A body lay on the ground. It was resting on its back, with six long, spindly legs protruding from beneath it, pressing against the floor. The figure was completely naked, its snow-white skin marred by copious amounts of blood. Yet, its face was exceptionally beautiful—enchanting enough to mesmerize the world.

Aside from the spider legs on its back, the delicate body perfectly showcased a woman’s voluptuous curves and slender waist. Most importantly, she was stark naked! And she was curled up, directly facing Mo Qianqian.

At just a glance, Mo Qianqian felt his blood boil. But a moment later, he shuddered in terror, immediately clamping his legs together.

"It’s the Black Widow!" Mo Qianqian exclaimed in his mind.

The alluring, spider-legged woman before him was none other than the terrifying existence known as the Black Widow! The only Black Demon Spider capable of possessing a human body was the Black Widow! There was absolutely no other!

Mo Qianqian suddenly had the urge to curse. The mysterious woman had actually led him to find the Black Widow. Wasn’t she just trying to get him killed? Although it looked like the creature was heavily injured—likely a result of her battle against Chu Yiming and the other experts—she was still an upper-tier Rank Three Spirit Beast! She could easily kill an expert at the Ninth Level of Tongyou Realm! A casual flick of one of those legs would be enough to end his life!

"So? Are you sexually attracted to spiders?" the mysterious woman’s teasing voice echoed from his shadow.

Mo Qianqian was rendered utterly speechless. This wasn’t a matter of whether he was interested or not; it was a matter of life and death.

"Don’t worry, she’s severely injured and on the brink of death. You can handle her," the mysterious woman added.

Mo Qianqian really wanted to curse at her. Her appearance was indeed incredibly tempting, but this was the Black Widow! A monstrous being transformed from a Black Demon Spider, and she hadn’t even fully evolved into a human yet. Who would dare approach her?

HISS!

The Black Widow suddenly opened her eyes. Her pupils carried an innate arrogance and coldness, and in an instant, a dense, murderous gleam flashed within them.

A flash of inspiration struck Mo Qianqian, and he hastily blurted out, "I’m a Second-Grade Spirit Master! I can save you! Help me fight once, and I’ll save your life. Deal?"

Black blood trickled from the Black Widow’s mouth before she spat out a single word in a delicate, cold, and hoarse voice, "Deal!"

Gritting his teeth, Mo Qianqian manipulated his Spirit Body to approach the Black Widow. He pressed a hand against her and began infusing her with spirituality.

Saving the Black Widow was incredibly dangerous! But wealth and glory were found in the midst of danger! If he wanted to flatten the Ling family, he needed a helper. Since the Black Widow had just transformed into her human form, her intelligence shouldn’t be too high. If he could trick her into going to the Ling family for revenge, she would undoubtedly deliver a devastating blow to them.

Of course, he wasn’t going to heal her completely. He only intended to preserve her life, ensuring she would still need his help and wouldn’t try to kill him the moment she recovered.

"You’ve got some guts, I’ll give you that. It’s just a shame you don’t have quite enough. If you could sleep with a spider, then you’d be a real man," the mysterious woman teased.

Mo Qianqian was speechless.

Over half an hour later, he was still channeling his spirituality while staring at her naked body. A trickle of blood dripped from his nose. Feeling a bit embarrassed, he quickly wiped it away.

HISS! HISS!

Right at that moment, an unexpected anomaly occurred.
