Sheng Ning had a lot of experience with being eaten by spiders.
She turned around, torch in hand, and gazed at her fellow disciples with a melancholy look.
The latter immediately recalled the day they arrived at the secret realm, when they were surrounded by spiders and their junior sister was devoured, a memory that filled them with disgust.
Lu Qing'an coughed lightly with his fist to his lips and said, "Junior Sister is right. We must be careful. It would be bad if the disciples of the Heavenly Sect were inside the Ghost Spider's belly and we hurt them."
Standing at the back, Su Daiyuan was filled with questions as he watched them speak in riddles.
"What's wrong? What fun things did you guys do? Why didn't you include me?"
Seeing his senior brother's eager expression, Yu Ye quickly frowned and reminded him, "Senior brother, stop talking!"
Su Daiyuan looked at him with a head full of questions, "Why? When I broke through to the next level and entered the secret realm, you had already been inside for quite some time."
"What happened before I found you and joined you?"
"Actually, it's not a big deal," Lu Jingshen said, bracing himself for the worst, despite the lingering gaze from his junior sister.
"It was just that my junior sister was swallowed by a tarantula after entering the secret realm that day."
"My senior brothers dislike me because of the tarantula's slime on me; they don't really love me..."
Sheng Ning's soft voice rang in everyone's ears.
Lu Qing'an's features crumpled up, and he said in a deep voice, "Of course the senior brothers love their junior sister, but the circumstances were different back then. Junior sister, listen to your senior brothers' excuses!"
“Yes, junior sister, if your senior brother were swallowed by that tarantula, would you despise him?” Yu Ye asked, completely ignoring any logic.
Sheng Ning looked up and met his eyes, her delicate face filled with resentment. "No, I will perform a hand seal for my senior brother to make him clean."
The four people, including Yu Ye: ...
My junior sister is so innocent, so kind, so...
How could they have looked down on their junior sister back then!
They deserve to die!
When the old grievances were brought up again, Lu Qing'an and the other three lowered their heads, pretending to know they were wrong.
Sheng Ning took in their performance, and her face, which had been filled with grievance and resentment just a moment ago, blossomed into a smile the next.
"I'm just teasing my senior brothers. If they were eaten by the wolf spider or the ghost spider, I would also despise them."
"Now is not the time to settle old scores. How about this: if the total number of Ghost Spiders killed by you senior brothers this time exceeds mine, I will let bygones be bygones regarding that matter. What do you say?"
There was hardly any light in the cave; only the torches in their hands illuminated everyone's faces.
Looking at the smile on Sheng Ning's face, Yu Ye and the others felt it was incredibly radiant.
How could there be such a kind and understanding junior sister in the world, who even gave him a way out?
She knew perfectly well that there were more of her fellow disciples, yet she deliberately said that she would forgive them as long as the total number of ghost spiders they hunted exceeded hers.
What an absolutely amazing junior sister she is!!!
Raising his hand to wipe away non-existent tears from the corner of his eye, Yu Ye said with a touched expression, "Junior Sister, you are such a kind person."
But as soon as he finished speaking, Sheng Ning, who was standing in front of him, suddenly rushed towards Ghost Spider.
"Without further ado, senior brothers, I'll go first."
"How can you go back on your word, Ah Ning? Wait for Second Senior Brother!"
"Me too, junior sister, this time when hunting the Ghost Spider, your third senior brother will definitely be better than you."
"Guan Yunchuan, charge! They've all gone in, what are you waiting for?!"
"Get off me first, how am I supposed to do anything if you don't get off?"
The passageway is not very wide.
There was only enough room for the six of them, brothers and sisters, to stand side by side.
The Ghost Spider is much smaller than the Wolf Spider, and it is agile and has spider silk that can burn cultivators. Cultivators who encounter the Ghost Spider usually find it very difficult to defeat it.
However, they were unlucky this time, and ran into Sheng Ning and his group as soon as they stepped out.
The laser beams lit up the cave.
Accompanied by the hissing of the ghost spiders, the once quiet passageway became quite lively.
Su Daiyuan watched his fellow disciples rush forward and shook his head helplessly. "Fine, I'll settle accounts with you later."
As he spoke, tens of thousands of icicles shot towards the Ghost Spider from behind him.
The Ghost Spiders had never encountered such troublesome cultivators, especially the laser cannons in Sheng Ning's hands, which were even more lethal than the spider silk they spewed.
Enraged, the Ghost Spider caused the already countless 'ghost fires' in the passage to multiply after Sheng Ning and his group took action.
Not only the ground, but even the ceiling was covered with ghost spiders.
Sheng Ning frowned as she looked at the ghost spiders in front of her; there were just too many of them.
Although not as many as the number of tarantulas they had encountered before.
But the ghost spider was silent; a single spit of its silk could scorch the robes she wore.
Looking down at her robes, which had been burned with several holes, she showed a hint of impatience.
The colorful spiritual energy that was originally injected into the laser cannon suddenly turned into a white light.
Sheng Ning rarely uses this move.
This is because it depletes too much of the spiritual energy in the body.
Each time she gathers the spiritual power of her five spiritual roots together, she always needs to recuperate for a long time.
She even fell into a coma for several days when she entered the Northern Region.
If she only uses a single elemental spiritual root to attack these ghost spiders, they are like cockroaches that can never be killed. Once she kills one, dozens more are waiting for her.
The small ball of light in his hand changed from blue to blue-red, until all five colors came together, and a powerful white light suddenly shone in the passage, illuminating the entire passage.
Su Daiyuan and the others, who were attacking the Ghost Spider, stopped what they were doing and their eyes all fell on Sheng Ning, who was not far away.
Unlike the first time when he condensed five elemental roots, Sheng Ning felt that his spiritual power was not completely drained after advancing.
On the contrary, the five elemental roots within her body are continuously absorbing external spiritual energy to replenish the spiritual energy she has used up.
The abundance of spiritual energy within his body gave Sheng Ning tremendous encouragement.
She placed her palm on the laser cannon, and her delicate face, illuminated by the white light, became even more captivating.
"I just want to ask, have any spiders seen my friends?"
The spiders were still angry and about to attack Sheng Ning and the others, so they didn't hear what Sheng Ning said at all, or rather, they didn't take Sheng Ning's words to heart at all.
Sheng Ning was not annoyed.
She aimed the laser cannon at the ghost spider that had just crawled up above her.
As she channeled her spiritual energy, streaks of white light flashed before everyone's eyes.
Then Su Daiyuan and his group, along with the other Ghost Spiders, saw the Ghost Spiders hanging from the top of the passage fall down one by one.
The swarm of ghost spiders was quiet for a moment, but soon they became agitated again.
Sheng Ning coldly stared at this group of emotionless, ugly creatures and repeated what she had just said in a deep voice.
"I'll ask again, have any spiders seen my friends?"
