Chapter 373 – This Lord May Agree, but I’m Afraid Someone Else Won’t~

Hearing Zhu Yu’s plea for mercy, Ning Yechen waved his sleeve, and in an instant, severed everything that was burning with demonic flame on the Myriad Spider Mountain before him!

In a flash, a silver light streaked past, and countless mountain tops were directly sliced off.

Once the demonic flame ignited, it was immortal and indestructible. To extinguish it, the only way was to sever all contact with it before it had a chance to spread.

After the demonic flame was extinguished, the Myriad Spider Mountain was a complete mess. The dense mountain forest was now just a desolate ruin filled with wreckage and remains.

The Spider Clan, hidden within the mountain, had suffered even more tragic casualties, their numbers almost halved in an instant.

“You must be the supreme ruler of the Demon Realm, the great Demon Lord, right~”

“I am the chief of the Spider Clan, Zhu Yu. I would like to invite you into my cave for a discussion, if I may?”

On the barren and ruined spider mountain, a massive palace shaped like a spider’s head slowly rose from the ground, and a seductive, pleading voice came from within.

Ning Yechen, naturally, was not worried. With his hands behind his back, he strode towards the spider palace.

Luo Ruying and Hu Shan’s group were about to follow, but were blocked by spider silk that suddenly shot out from both sides.

“My apologies~ I only invited the Demon Lord. I’d like to have a private chat with him~”

“Everyone, please wait outside for a moment~ It will be over soon~”

Zhu Yu’s charming and seductive voice came from within the palace again.

“My wife, you all wait here for a moment.”

“This husband will be back soon.”

Ning Yechen, unafraid of any tricks the other party might play, spoke reassuringly to Luo Ruying and the others.

Hearing this, Luo Ruying couldn’t help but furrow her beautiful brows and pout, her pretty face showing her displeasure.

Just from the sound of her voice, she knew it was a spider spirit! To specifically invite Ning Yechen alone was clearly a sign of ill intent! Who knows what kind of bewitching potion she planned to give him…!

“I’ve heard that Zhu Yu of the Spider Clan is extremely bewitching and incomparably beautiful!”

“Isn’t that the truth? I’ve heard many who have seen her have been deeply captivated by her with just one glance.”

“And I’ve heard that those who were captivated have never returned…!”

“If it were me, I probably wouldn’t be able to bear coming back either…”

“I wonder if the Demon Lord will…?”

The members of the southern clans behind them couldn’t help but start whispering amongst themselves.

And these words happened to be overheard by Luo Ruying…

“Qingyou, I’ll leave Ye Ye in your care!”

Luo Ruying’s beautiful brows were tightly furrowed. After leaving that one cold sentence, she vanished from the spot in an instant.

“I understand, Madam.”

A faint, light smile appeared at the corners of Yue Qingyou’s mouth as she bowed and accepted.

“Big Sister Yue, is Mommy going to find Daddy?”

Luo Hongye, riding on Erxia, had her big eyes filled with curiosity.

“Mmm~ The Madam is worried about the Demon Lord~”

Yue Qingyou turned her head, chuckled softly at Luo Hongye, her mood exceptionally good.

The Madam was clearer than anyone about the Demon Lord’s strength. There was absolutely no need to worry.

Therefore, what she was worried about were other things…

……

Inside the spider grotto.

Ning Yechen strolled leisurely through the cave as if taking a walk in a courtyard.

The entire interior of the palace was like a hollowed-out mountain, filled with intricate and complex tunnels.

The tunnels were covered in webs, and the walls were densely packed with small holes and caves, with pairs of eyes hidden within.

Wherever Ning Yechen passed, all the surrounding spiders would hurriedly hide in their caves.

Led by a very small, white-jade spider, Ning Yechen arrived at the deepest part of the spider palace.

“Demon Lord, please~”

“Lady Zhu Yu has already bathed and is waiting for you~”

Two half-human, half-spider girls welcomed him at the entrance, making a respectful gesture of welcome.

Ning Yechen didn’t stand on ceremony and strode right in.

Inside the palace, a figure lay behind a curtain, revealing a graceful and enchanting silhouette, with numerous limbs raised high.

“Demon Lord, you’re here~”

“I’ve been waiting for so long~”

A slender, fair, jade-like hand extended from the curtain. As the curtain was slowly drawn open, a gorgeous and seductive woman appeared before Ning Yechen.

The woman’s figure was slender, her waist as thin as a snake’s, her body wrapped only in a thin gauze robe, the graceful and ample figure on her chest faintly visible.

Unlike an ordinary woman, besides her pair of jade-like eyes, she also had many pairs of eyes on her forehead, and nearly a dozen extra hands on her back and waist.

“Welcome~ Demon Lord~”

“I have long heard of your name~”

“I heard you alone annihilated the entire Pig Demon Clan. Truly amazing~”

“Even the web barrier I specially laid couldn’t stop you at all.”

“I admire you very much, Demon Lord, but that one breath of fire of yours cost me quite a few children~”

“I’m so sad~”

Zhu Yu descended from the couch, brought a wine cup to Ning Yechen, her numerous eyes gazing at him seductively. Her barely-covered body intentionally and unintentionally pressed against him.

Ning Yechen gave Zhu Yu a calm glance and took a small step back, causing her to lunge at empty air.

Zhu Yu couldn’t help but look astonished. This was the first time a man had rejected her so decisively…

“What business do you have with this Lord? Speak directly.” Ning Yechen said coldly.

“Don’t be in such a hurry, Demon Lord~”

“I intend to bring the Spider Clan to join you and crusade against the Dragon Emperor together~!”

“As long as you can agree to one condition of mine~”

Zhu Yu said with a seductive expression, handing the wine cup in her hand to Ning Yechen.

“What condition?”

Ning Yechen asked after taking the wine cup.

“I’ve lost so many children, so I just need you to compensate me~”

“It wouldn’t be a loss for you, would it~”

“I guarantee I’ll let you experience a pleasure you’ve never felt before~”

“Don’t you want to have a taste of a spider~?”

Zhu Yu once again drew close to Ning Yechen, pressing against his ear and tempting him in a seductive voice.

The several pairs of eyes on her forehead all opened, emitting a faint, bewitching light.

Ning Yechen smiled faintly, glanced behind him out of the corner of his eye, and couldn’t help but laugh, “That’s quite a nice proposal~”

“It’s just that even if this Lord agrees, I’m afraid someone else won’t~”

“Hmm?”

Hearing this, Zhu Yu couldn’t help but look puzzled.

The dignified Demon Lord, does he need someone’s permission to do this…?

Just as Zhu Yu was feeling puzzled, a sword-rainbow shot across the air, leaving an afterimage of an electric arc.

Accompanied by flashing and leaping immortal lightning, it pierced through Zhu Yu’s shoulder, pinning her to the wall!

S-So fast…!

Zhu Yu looked at the celestial sword piercing her shoulder with a terrified and astonished expression.

With her dignified peak Immortal Emperor cultivation, she actually didn’t have time to react at all…!

And what’s with this celestial sword? The might of the immortal lightning contained within its blade is a bit too terrifying!

She couldn’t even reach out and pull out the sword!

That crackling immortal lightning made her not dare to touch it easily…!

Who is it?!

“Hmph! Spider spirit…!”

“Don’t you even think about making a move on someone else’s husband!”

Luo Ruying, frowning, slowly walked out from behind Ning Yechen…
