Chapter 437 - Chapter 437: Chapter 429: Level 10 Demon Spider_1 (2/2)

“`

Bai Xuezhu was originally locked in a fierce battle with a dark and sinister elder from the enemy side, managing to maintain a slight advantage. Now that the Nine Insects Gang Leader had joined the fray, the pressure on him surged instantly.

Despite Bai Xuezhu’s expertise in tough external martial arts, and his fearless nature of neither dreading the heavens nor the earth, his heart couldn’t help but shudder at this moment.

“Old witch, stop your violence, eat my blade!”

A man in his forties, wielding a Crescent Blade and mounted on his horse, positioned himself in front of the Nine Insects Gang Leader.

This man had muscles coiled like a dragon, thick beards covering his face, and a towering build. His cultivation was similarly not weak, likely above the middle stage of the Spirit Qi Realm.

His energy felt much stronger than that of an ordinary warrior of the Spirit Qi Realm.

But he was still far weaker than Bai Xuezhu.

Usually, these top warriors of the Black Tiger Gang practiced in solitude at home. Now, faced with the threat of annihilation, they had all emerged.

There should be dozens of Spirit Qi Realm experts within the Black Tiger Gang.

After all, they also had many years of accumulation.

Take the Fang Family, for instance, with no fewer than five Spirit Qi Realm experts, each an esteemed patriarch.

“Cao Family, you’ve always been the most talkative one!”

The Nine Insects Gang Leader spoke in an ice-cold tone, sounding like that of an eighteen-year-old girl. Though it carried supreme authority, it was as pleasant as silver bells.

The banter indicated familiarity between the two parties.

Spirit Qi Realm experts often lived over a hundred years, and it was not unusual for members of neighboring gangs to know each other.

The Tyrant Funnel-Web Spider beneath her spewed out a large puff of spider silk, ensnaring the middle-aged Cao patriarch in what seemed like a vast net. The middle-aged man slashed at the descending spider web with his blade, causing radiant Blade Qi to appear along the edge of the Crescent Blade.

Yet his Blade Qi seemed ineffective against the web.

The threads appeared soft and delicate but turned out to be incredibly durable.

“That Cao fellow is done for.”

Qin Niu made a prediction in his mind.

Both parties were Spirit Qi Realm experts, and once one side found themselves ensnared, unless they had exceptional life-saving techniques, they were almost certainly doomed.

Even with such techniques, if they didn’t act early and decisively enough to deploy them quickly, there was only a slim chance of survival.

After failing to cleave through the web with one slice, the Cao patriarch seemed to panic and made a mistake by striking a second blade. He put all his effort into this strike, and the Blade Qi shone even more brilliantly than before.

The Nine Insects Gang Leader raised her delicate hand, and her figure vanished in a flash.

When she reappeared, she was already behind the ensnared Cao patriarch, wielding twin Crescent Halberds in her hands.

Both were plunged into the back of the Cao patriarch, with a small section protruding from the front at the heart position.

This woman was truly ruthless.

Killing with efficiency, as if it were an insignificant trifle.

After successfully taking down her target, she withdrew her Crescent Halberds, her form vanishing again. The next second, she reappeared on the back of the Tyrant Funnel-Web Spider.

Such unpredictable movement techniques gave Qin Niu a glimpse of how terrifying a Spirit Qi Realm expert could be.

He instinctively shrank his neck, harboring not even a hint of desire to rush forward and play the hero, but rather watched indifferently as the Cao patriarch was killed, silently gauging the strength of the Nine Insects Gang Leader.

He was well aware that a battle between Spirit Qi Realm warriors was not something he, an Innate Realm warrior, could interfere with.

He had already learned his lesson during previous battles with Elder Jiu Yin and Elder Mei.

The gap between the Innate Realm and the Spirit Qi Realm seemed to be just one major realm, but in terms of strength, it was the difference between heaven and earth.

After eliminating the Cao patriarch with a single move, the Nine Insects Gang Leader once again turned her attention to Bai Xuezhu.

Bai Xuezhu, frightened, launched two aggressive moves and made a hasty retreat.

As brave as he was, he wasn’t foolish. The Cao patriarch had been swiftly killed in one move, so how could Bai Xuezhu dare to fight two against one?
