At that moment, Yang Fei finally saw the true form of that terrifying, poisonous creature.
It was a monster!
It looked quite like a spider, with antennae and limbs as thin as wires, but it had the face of a ghost.
Its sharp fangs and beansized eyes emitted a deadly light, and behind it hung long threads of spider silk.
Its body moved through the air by the force of the spider silk, swift as lightning.
What was most terrifying was that the creature seemed to possess a natural ability to mask its presence.
Clearly, such a fierce thing was darting through the air.
Yet even martial artists like Yang Fei and Ye, who were top-notch experts, failed to detect it.
A martial artist's sixth sense was not always infallible.
No matter how much humanity evolved, they couldn't surpass creatures that had lived on Earth for millions of years.
Xiao Xuanya screamed in shock when Yang Fei pushed her away.
"Yang Fei, be careful!"
Whoosh!
Fan Yi and Three Swords unleashed their blades simultaneously, targeting the creature.
But unexpectedly, that little thing, which seemed to possess some spirituality,
Utilized its silken thread to sway and dodge, evading the sudden attack from Fan Yi and Three Swords.
The spider, as if it had singled out Yang Fei as its nemesis,
Rapidly charged at him in an unrivaled manner.
Roar!
Suddenly, Yang Fei let out a thunderous roar.
The sound was like an air bomb, bursting loudly.
Tiger Roar!
The rolling sound waves seemed like the mighty Yangtze River, emitting a vicious and violent aura.
On one side of the hall was a small bar.
Separated by glass display windows, countless tall glasses shattered from the vibration.
Everyone's ears suffered.
People covered their ears as stars danced before their eyes and their heads felt as if they were being pricked by steel needles, the pain almost splitting their skulls.
Yang Fei's Tiger Roar was originally a magical treasure for group combat.
As his martial arts skills improved, the power of this move, when unleashed now, was incredibly formidable.
However, even under such a shocking sonic blast, the Ghost-Faced Spider still furiously pressed forward.
It bit down towards Yang Fei's neck, its movements only slightly slowed.
Yang Fei was startled.
He wondered how such an extraordinarily tough and resilient creature had been cultivated.
Yang Fei crouched low like a bolt of lightning and simultaneously flung out five playing cards.
Whizz!
The cards shot straight towards the hanging spider silk in midair.
With a clear ting, the spider silk emitted a sound like breaking steel wire, snapping in the middle.
With that, the Ghost-Faced Spider finally lost its aim and rolled onto the ground.
Qiu Yidao's long blade struck again, landing on the spider's head.
The creature rolled over and, astonishingly, didn't die.
It spat out silk from its mouth, attaching itself to a distant wall.
Then, by the force of the silk's pull, it darted out of the hall like lightning.
"Damn, don't let it get away."
Yang Fei had never encountered such a terrifying poison creature.
Even his own heart was pounding wildly with fear.
At that moment, a cold, lightning-fast blade flashed and disappeared.
The Ghost-Faced Spider let out a mournful cry and finally collapsed onto the deck, struggling a couple of times.
It lay on its back, belly up, motionless.
Ye had made his move.
Ye's expression was no longer calm.
In his eyes lay complex emotions, including a trace of anger.
Even on his face seemed to linger a hint of fear.
Yang Fei saw it clear as day and couldn't help but feel greatly puzzled.
Ye's martial arts skills must have already surpassed the Golden Core Earth Grade.
Moreover, his state of mind was tranquil and undisturbed, calm as still waters.
What sort of great power was tied to this single Ghost-Faced Spider?
Enough to make someone like Three Swords fearful?
```
Night One Blade had just slain the Ghost-faced Spider and suddenly strode away from the hall.
In the middle of the hall, everyone was terrified and kept their distance, not daring to get close.
The speed of the Ghost-faced Spider was so fast that the naked eye could barely discern it.
And its toxicity was even more ferocious.
In just a few seconds, it could poison a Martial Arts Master to death.
This was far more terrifying than any assassin.
Mad Blade had a quick thought and went to the bar to find two bottles of strong liquor.
He carefully doused the Ghost-faced Spider with it and then set it on fire.
Not until the alcohol had burned the body of the Ghost-faced Spider to a char did everyone finally believe.
The venomous creature that had nearly driven them all to a nervous breakdown was finally dead.
Looking back on the torment of the past few days and nights, it seemed like a dream.
Seeing that Night's expression was off, Yang Fei followed closely.
But he noticed Night moving faster and faster, now on the deck, now at the bottom level.
He seemed to be searching for something.
Unable to contain himself any longer, Yang Fei caught up to him.
"Night, do you know the origin of that Ghost-faced Spider?"
Night sighed.
"Let's walk and talk. The appearance of the Ghost Face Spider here means the Golden Poison King is also on board."
"We must find this old monster, otherwise it's too dangerous."
Yang Fei had never heard of the Golden Poison King's reputation.
But he paid more attention after hearing Night speak so gravely.
"Who is the Golden Poison King? Why is he poisoning these innocent people?"
Night was hurrying along, his eyes searching everywhere.
"With the Golden Poison King here, Lord Dragon King is in trouble."
"The friends from the Heavenly Demon Alliance may have already reached the Dragon King Hall."
Yang Fei felt as if he were in a fog, utterly lost.
"What Heavenly Demon Alliance? Why are they targeting the Dragon King Hall?"
Night suddenly stopped, slowly turned around.
His clear eyes stared at Yang Fei for a full three seconds before he finally let out a sigh.
"Yang Fei, I know you have issues with Lord Dragon King, thinking that Lord Dragon King's business isn't clean."
"But let me tell you, in this world, there's no such thing as purely clean business, nor are there people who are completely clean."
"In your eyes, the Dragon King Hall is a wicked force that does all evil."
"That's because you haven't seen what a truly evil gang does when they commit crimes."
A rare sneer appeared in his usually calm and clear eyes.
"Have you seen prisoners in a jail soaked in nutrient solutions, kept alive only to have their hearts, livers, and gallbladders excised for organ sale?"
"Have you seen the sale of arms escalate conflicts between two countries by releasing a large number of undercover agents, taking advantage of the situation to profit from the war?"
"Have you seen the widespread distribution of a Gene Virus, only to sell the remedy at exorbitant prices?"
Yang Fei was speechless.
"So, these deeds are the work of the Heavenly Demon Alliance?"
Night looked at him indifferently.
"They call themselves demons, which means they devour humans."
"For them, ordinary people are nothing more than slaves for making money."
"For the Heavenly Demon Alliance, morals and humanity can all be flushed down the toilet."
"For the sake of money, they can do bad things beyond your imagination."
As he spoke, a deep hatred emerged on the calm face of Ye Wenxiu.
"This is the Heavenly Demon Alliance, and the Golden Poison King is one of them, a bastard who deserves to go to hell!"
Yang Fei listened in shocked silence.
"So, the Heavenly Demon Alliance is on par with the Dragon King Hall as one of the Great Owls of the Imperial?"
Night nodded and continued his search without looking back.
"The Dragon King Hall and the Heavenly Demon Alliance, one in the south and one in the north, are among the top imperial syndicates in the country."
"However, the businesses under the Dragon King Hall are mostly legitimate."
"On the other hand, the Heavenly Demon Alliance does all kinds of evil and is highly secretive."
"That's why ordinary people don't know about the Heavenly Demon Alliance's reputation."
With that, Night suddenly stopped.
He barked at a uniformed crew member ahead.
"Freeze!"
I'd like to recommend a good book by a friend, the 'Ultimate Almighty Soldier King', a hot-blooded military tale by an author who is both handsome and plump. Everyone, go take a look.
