Although the Corpse-Eating Steel Spider does not possess the means of frenzy and pressure field like the bush demon, its speed and strength are superior. Its six steel legs can easily pierce the defense of a spiritual martial realm cultivator. It itself is as hard as steel, making it more difficult to deal with than the bush demon.

"elder brother?"

Nangong Rou's face turned pale. She had been looking forward to Jiang Zhige's arrival, but now that she saw Jiang Zhige, she was not happy at all.

Because the corpse-eating steel spider is too strong, even if the brother and sister join forces, they have no chance of winning.

Jiang Zhige looked calm and said in a deep voice: "Rou'er, I'll cover you from the front, and you find a chance to attack the Steel Spider's back."

As he spoke, he took out a turquoise-green pill and swallowed it, replenishing his depleted spiritual energy as much as possible.

The name of the pill is Guling Pill, and it is an eighth-grade pill. One pill is equivalent to Jiang Zhige's three years' savings. Although it is very expensive, he bought Guling Pill just to deal with this situation.

"Brother, do you want to fight?"

Nangong Rou's heart was pounding. She had no confidence that she could kill the corpse-eating steel spider.

The corpse-eating steel spider did not give Nangong Rou time to hesitate. It rushed over quickly, dancing its six steel legs, and making sharp roars from its bloody mouth.

Jiang Zhige did not dodge, but held the magic sword in his hand to quickly block the sharp legs of the corpse-eating steel spider.

"Rou'er, if you don't want to fight, then you..."

"I won't run away!"

After hearing Jiang Zhige's words, Nangong Rou, who was still trembling a second ago, became determined and raised her magic sword to chop at the back of the corpse-eating steel spider.

It’s not that she didn’t want to escape, but she knew that Jiang Zhige would let her go alone first.

Neither of them was a match for the Corpse Devouring Steel Spider. Wouldn't Jiang Zhige be doomed to die if he stayed alone? Jiang Zhige was secretly helpless. He had already guessed that this would happen.

Nangong Rou refused to flee. What else could she do except fight to the death? Most of the body of the Corpse Devouring Steel Spider was as hard as steel, except for its back which was relatively fragile. Unfortunately, Nangong Rou neglected to practice, and her sword strike failed to cause much damage to the Corpse Devouring Steel Spider.

The corpse-eating steel spider let out an angry roar, gave up on the somewhat difficult Jiang Zhige, and stabbed Nangong Rou wildly with its sharp legs.

Jiang Zhige drew his sword to stop it, but the defense right in front of the Corpse-Eating Steel Spider was the most amazing, and his full-strength sword could only leave a shallow dent.

Fortunately, Nangong Rou had some spiritual martial arts cultivation, and before being pierced by the sharp legs, she used her body skills to retreat to a nearby distance. The corpse-eating steel spider, which failed to kill Nangong Rou, became even more angry, and stabbed at Jiang Zhige with its sharp legs like a rainstorm.

Jiang Zhige was far behind in strength and speed, and was stabbed with several bloody wounds in an instant. It was difficult for him to protect his vital parts.

"elder brother!"

Nangong Rou was so frightened that her face turned pale. She hurriedly raised her magic sword and wanted to attack the corpse-eating steel spider's back again.

However, this time the Corpse-Eating Steel Spider was on guard, and before Nangong Rou could get close, it stabbed its sharp leg straight towards her.

Nangong Rou's pupils dilated and she felt a chill in her heart.

There is no way to hide, no way to avoid it, she is dead this time.

Seeing that Nangong Rou was about to be pierced, Jiang Zhige suddenly used the Crane Walking Step to block in front of her.

Phew!

The sharp leg pierced Jiang Zhige's shoulder, bringing up a large amount of blood.

Nangong Rou looked dazed and didn't react for a moment.

She touched her cheek, which was still stained with warm blood, and asked in a trembling voice, "Brother, brother?"

Before Nangong Rou could come to her senses, Jiang Zhige suddenly reached out and pushed her out.

"Rou'er, hurry up and go find Senior Sister Qiushui."

Jiang Zhige held the sharp legs tightly to prevent the corpse-eating steel spider from cutting him in half.

Seeing that it couldn't kill Jiang Zhige, the Corpse-Eating Steel Spider swung its sharp legs and threw him out.

"elder brother!"

Nangong Rou had no intention of running away and ran towards Jiang Zhige crying.

Jiang Zhige fell to the ground, blood gushing out of his shoulder wound.

He glanced at the corpse-eating steel spider that was charging towards him, and then looked at Nangong Rou who was staggering towards him.

"Silly girl"

Jiang Zhige gritted his teeth and quickly took out a piece of talisman paper.

Just as he was about to activate the talisman paper, Nangong Rou suddenly waved her hand and sent out a stream of spiritual power, destroying his talisman paper.

Jiang Zhige stood there in a daze for a moment, not knowing what to do.

The next moment, the corpse-eating steel spider raised its two sharp legs like steel knives towards him.

Nangong Rou dodged in front of Jiang Zhige and was stabbed by the steel knife on the spot.

"Rou, Rou'er."

Jiang Zhige's face turned pale and his lips were trembling.

Nangong Rou turned her back to Jiang Zhige, blood oozing from her mouth, and said weakly: "Brother, you always like to act on your own."

The talisman that she erased was called the Escape Talisman, which could teleport a person to a location ten miles away.

The invisibility talisman is extremely valuable and is a life-saving artifact, but Nangong Rou knows that Jiang Zhige will never give it to her.

Because Nangong Rou still remembered the scene when Jiang Zhige bought the invisibility talisman two years ago.

There were two invisibility talismans in total. Jiang Zhige bought one. Nangong Rou also wanted to buy one, but he raised his hand to stop her.

"Rou'er, don't you still want to buy a skirt?"

The invisibility talisman was too expensive, and after Nangong Rou bought it, she could no longer afford anything else.

"But this piece of paper can save my life. My brother with the piece of paper can live, but Rou'er without the piece of paper will die."

Nangong Rou felt aggrieved. If Jiang Zhige didn't buy it, she wouldn't bother to spend money to buy any talisman paper.

At that time, Jiang Zhige burst out laughing and said casually: "One is enough, Rou'er will not die."

Jiang Zhige thought Nangong Rou was still young and wouldn't understand, but he didn't know that Nangong Rou had already guessed what he was thinking.

Jiang Zhige spent a lot of spirit stones to buy talisman paper, but he didn't buy it for himself at all.

Nangong Rou insisted on buying one, but she couldn't persuade Jiang Zhige, so she could only use the spirit stones for other things.

When faced with danger today, Jiang Zhige knew that he was no match for the Corpse-Eating Steel Spider. How could he possibly agree to let Nangong Rou stay and join forces to deal with it?

If Jiang Zhige had been more resolute and said a few more words to let Nangong Rou go first, she might not have doubted.

However, Jiang Zhige was too abnormal. He let Nangong Rou escape alone without saying a word.

From the beginning, he had been thinking about finding an opportunity to use talisman paper to send Nangong Rou away, and Nangong Rou had also been on guard against Jiang Zhige acting on his own.

Jiang Zhige's eyes were filled with tears, and his emotions were surging like an ocean.

After hearing Nangong Rou's words, he realized that perhaps Nangong Rou had guessed that he would do this two years ago.

If Nangong Rou had not taken precautions in advance, how could she have destroyed the escape talisman in time?

Nangong Rou guessed his plan and knew that he would never be able to escape alone, so she chose to be buried here together.

At this moment, Jiang Zhige suddenly realized that Nangong Rou was no longer the little girl she was seven years ago.

Unfortunately it's too late, everything is too late.

"To be honest, I feel envy right now."
