Chapter 1370: Chapter 1369: Silk Demoness (Part 1)
Chen Tianlong also realized he was at a dead end, so he swung his sword at the incoming blood bats with all his might, temporarily driving them back for a while, but he knew this was not a long-term solution.
At this moment, Chen Tianlong examined the door behind him. Although it was made of iron, given that he had the Dragon Slayer Sword, he wanted to give it a try.
"Wu Mengting, help Gu Yuxin and step aside a bit."
Chen Tianlong thought for a moment and said to Wu Mengting.
"Okay, got it."
Wu Mengting quickly moved away, supporting Gu Yuxin, and reached a safe place.
Chen Tianlong grasped the Dragon Slayer Sword with both hands and softly said, "Precious sword, dear sword, you have to give me some strength."
At this moment, the Dragon Slayer Sword began to glow, as if responding to him. Chen Tianlong smiled with satisfaction, then swung the sword forcefully, and with a "whoosh," the door opened.
Chen Tianlong didn’t wait any longer and directly let Wu Mengting support Gu Yuxin in pushing the broken door and entering inside.
Meanwhile, the blood bats also pursued them, getting closer, when suddenly Chen Tianlong spun around and slashed with his sword, and the Sword Qi swiftly wiped out the oncoming blood bat.
But in an instant, another swarm of blood bats swooped in, more daring than a suicide squad. Chen Tianlong thought angrily to himself: Damn, these reckless creatures are terrifying.
Chen Tianlong quickly pushed the door open and ran inside. Fortunately, there was another iron mesh door inside, which he hastily closed, using a piece of wood to secure it, finally putting his mind at ease.
Only then did the three of them breathe a sigh of relief. After taking a moment to gather themselves, they noticed the place was brightly lit and incredibly spacious, at least a hundred to two hundred square meters wide. Directly opposite them stood a statue, to be precise, a statue of a woman, with "Silk Demoness" carved into it.
Chen Tianlong was taken aback for a moment upon seeing these words. Silk Demoness?
The name felt a bit strange.
The three of them slowly approached the statue and began to examine it closely. Suddenly, Gu Yuxin groaned in pain, her face pale. Upon seeing this, Chen Tianlong immediately walked over and checked her eyelids.
"It’s not good, the blood bats are poisonous."
Chen Tianlong said as he quickly turned Gu Yuxin’s body around.
"You idiot, Chen Tianlong, what are you doing?"
Gu Yuxin was startled by Chen Tianlong’s actions and couldn’t ignore her discomfort anymore.
"If you don’t want to die, stop talking nonsense; soon the poison will reach your heart and not even the Daluo Immortals can save you." Chen Tianlong felt a bit like a good person misunderstood.
"Gu, Chen Tianlong wants to check your wound, you seem to be poisoned." Wu Mengting quickly explained.
"Oh."
Only then did Gu Yuxin let down her guard and gave Chen Tianlong a glare.
Chen Tianlong dared not waste any time, hurriedly removing Gu Yuxin’s clothing. Soon, her white shoulder was exposed, and Chen Tianlong couldn’t help but swallow a few times at the sight.
"What are you looking at? I’ll dig your eyeballs out later." Gu Yuxin noticed Chen Tianlong’s reaction and scolded him with a glare.
Chen Tianlong was speechless. Just one glance and he got caught. He thought to himself: Serves you right, I’m just being kind by checking your wound, can’t I get a little benefit?
Chen Tianlong shook his head and directly pulled back part of her clothing. At this point, the wound was exposed, and turning over the bleeding area, it had already turned a purplish black. Seeing this, Chen Tianlong realized something was seriously wrong; he needed to quickly expel the poison.
"Wow, it’s so terrifying, the wound is this black!"
Wu Mengting said with great concern.
Gu Yuxin also realized the seriousness, feeling dizzy, she thought to herself: Am I going to die?
But the next moment, she felt a warm sensation at the wound, instinctively turned her head to see Chen Tianlong was using his mouth to suck out the venom and then spitting it out before continuing.
She was initially startled but soon calmed down, feeling both shy and touched. The fact that a man she’d just met not long ago would risk himself to do such a thing for her was something she knew could very well result in his own poisoning and death. At that moment, she gradually began to open her heart to Chen Tianlong.
Soon after, Chen Tianlong spat out the last mouthful of venom, wiped his mouth, stood up, and said with a smile, "Alright, it’s done."
"Ah! Chen Tianlong, is Yuxin okay?" Wu Mengting asked, both puzzled and concerned.
"Hehe, as long as I’m here, nothing can go wrong," Chen Tianlong boasted again.
"Tch, keep bragging. You were lucky this time, otherwise, you would have died from the poison immediately." At this moment, Gu Yuxin felt less pain and returned to her lively self.
Chen Tianlong was speechless, thinking to himself: I saved your life, and instead of thanking me, you’re giving me a hard time. If I’d known, I wouldn’t have saved you.
"Ah!" Wu Mengting suddenly screamed.
At that moment, the two beside her were startled and quickly looked in Wu Mengting’s direction.
"Mengting, what’s wrong?" Chen Tianlong hurriedly asked.
They saw Wu Mengting pointing at a nearby statue. When they looked over, they were also shocked because what met their eyes was a strand of hair, and crucially, that strand of hair was slowly extending. Before long, it reached right in front of them.
Chen Tianlong urgently swung his sword, then pulled Wu Mengting and the others back several steps.
But the hair continued to extend. Chen Tianlong didn’t stop but instead swung the Dragon Slayer Sword vigorously, the Sword Qi directly slashing towards the source of the extending hair.
Suddenly, a woman appeared by the statue, and the hair instantly retracted. Standing before everyone was a young witch. Her height was similar to Wu Mengting’s. She wore a fitted long robe, and her long hair flowed down to her waist, with a pair of eyes filled with allure.
Chen Tianlong warned cautiously, "May I ask where you’re from, demon?"
"Haha, you’re the demon. I’m the master of this place, the mage Yili. You dared enter my domain, which is disrespectful to me. Prepare to die!"
As soon as Yili finished speaking, a lock of her hair swiftly extended forward.
It was a good thing that Chen Tianlong reacted quickly, immediately raising his sword to block it. The Dragon Slayer Sword was firmly bound by the strands, but with a strong tug, Chen Tianlong finally broke free, leaving the strands completely unharmed. He was very surprised.
Then, Yili turned around, and another lock of hair flew over. Chen Tianlong quickly avoided it, and the strands crashed into the wall with a rumbling sound. At this moment, everyone was stunned. Could hair have such power?
"Haha, I advise you to save your energy. You can’t escape from my grasp," Yili laughed arrogantly.
"Hmph, you’re too arrogant!" Gu Yuxin, with her impatient nature, could no longer hold back.
"Hehe, little girl, don’t be rude, or else I may leave you a whole corpse later," the witch said smugly.
Chen Tianlong didn’t waste more words with her. Since things had come to this, there was no choice but to fight to the death.
At this moment, Chen Tianlong proactively attacked. He leapt forward with his sword, quickly thrusting at her. But the witch didn’t give him the chance and thrust back. Just as he was in mid-air, the witch unleashed her magic, and her entire head of hair suddenly shot towards Chen Tianlong like daggers.
Chen Tianlong was taken aback and quickly sidestepped and jumped away. But the next moment, the witch’s hair remained relentless, swiftly pursuing him again. Chen Tianlong immediately activated the Nine Yang Celestial Dragon Technique, threading through the strands. The sword and hair created a constant "clang clang clang" of clashes.
Before long, Chen Tianlong’s stamina was halved, and he was panting, standing not far from the witch.
"Haha, I told you it would be in vain. You can’t defeat me," the witch taunted more blatantly.
"Hmph, evil witch, as long as there is breath in my body, I will persevere," Chen Tianlong declared resolutely, glaring at the witch in front of him.
At this moment, the witch made the first move. She lowered her head for a few seconds, then suddenly spread her arms wide, and all her hair shot towards Chen Tianlong like lightning. Even while being alert, Chen Tianlong couldn’t react in time before being struck heavily in the chest, sending him flying backward and causing him to spit a mouthful of blood upon landing.
Chen Tianlong felt excruciating pain in his organs, so he quickly sat down to cultivate the Qi and heal himself. At this moment, he was using the Heart Method of the Nine Yang Celestial Dragon Technique, and when he began to run this method, the pain immediately diminished significantly, and then the injuries also slowly started to heal.
Seeing that Chen Tianlong was already seriously injured, the witch didn’t want to delay any further and hurriedly aimed to get rid of these people and continue her cultivation.
So the witch suddenly "swished" to Chen Tianlong’s side and began to pull out a crystal rod from her waist. After chanting an incantation, her hand rose, ready to finish Chen Tianlong off with a single blow.
Chen Tianlong was in the middle of healing when he suddenly saw the witch approaching, feeling a chill, thinking: I have to dodge when she’s off-guard; otherwise, one hit, and I’m done for.
The crystal rod was coming down, and Chen Tianlong was ready to dodge.
But at this moment, Gu Yuxin’s whip lashed over, knocking the crystal rod away. Chen Tianlong took the opportunity to push himself up with one hand and performed a sweeping move, kicking the witch in the stomach.
Instantly, the witch was forced back several steps before she regained her balance.
"Hmph, you brat, how dare you ambush me. I’ll make your death very unpleasant shortly," Witch Yili started to get angry.
