067 The Heartless Spider

"Your Majesty! Don't you think there are more and more poisonous insects in this town?" The rat demon complained as it flicked away a centipede that had crawled onto the pool table.

"That's a lot! I guess that old poisoner is practicing some kind of poison technique again!" Huang Feng nodded nonchalantly. "Rat Two, your skill level is no good! I've already let you score two goals in a row, how come you still can't get it in!"

"Your Majesty is exceptionally intelligent! I am far inferior to even a fraction of your talent!" the rat demon quickly flattered.

"Hmph! I'm not playing anymore! It's no fun! Playing with you would be beneath my skill level!" Yellow Wind Monster threw his pool cue on the table. "My brother Baichuan is much more interesting. It's a pity that after the battle at the Spider Cave, I don't know where he went!"

"Your Majesty! Shall I go down the mountain and search for him?"

"No need! Wuji Ridge has been quite turbulent lately, so let's just stay here and hide!" Huang Fengguai stopped the rat demon's idea. It is said that rats have the most acute senses, and this rat that has become a spirit is even more so.

"By the way, Rat Two, how are my black-boned chickens doing?" This Yellow Wind Monster has two great hobbies in life: playing billiards and eating chicken, especially the black-boned chickens that are abundant in Black Chicken Town, which are his favorite.

"Your Majesty! The black-boned chickens are fine, but there is a strange thing!"

"Oh? What strange thing? Tell me about it!" The Yellow Wind Monster simply stopped playing billiards and pulled the Rat Demon aside to ask.

"That's right! Yesterday, when I used the feed prepared by the king to process the black-boned chickens, I discovered that one of the chickens actually laid a golden egg!"

"A golden egg?" The Yellow Wind Monster immediately became interested. "Take me to see it!"

Inside the henhouse, the rat demon, ignoring the chicken droppings and feathers scattered all over the ground, crawled into the nest and took out the golden egg.

"Your Majesty! This is it!" The rat demon presented the golden egg as if it were a treasure.

"Stay away from me!" Huang Fengguai said, pinching his nose, and took the golden egg with a look of disgust.

Unlike ordinary eggs, this egg is entirely golden.

"They really are golden eggs!" Huang Fengguai's eyes darted around. "These black-boned chickens are just ordinary livestock, they don't have the bloodline of golden chickens at all. Could it be that, like Marshal Tianpeng back then, some deity mistakenly reincarnated into the mortal realm?"

"Your Majesty! Among these black-boned chickens, some were gifts from the Taoist priest with many eyes!" the rat demon reminded him from the side.

"Oh? It seems so!" Huang Fengguai thought for a moment. It seemed that he had only been in Wuji Town for a short time when that guy brought over a few black-boned chickens under the guise of a visit. However, they were just ordinary chickens, which he usually used for a snack, so he didn't think much of it. "It seems that old centipede demon has some shady intentions!"

The Yellow Wind Monster wasn't stupid; he grabbed the Rat Demon and demanded, "I'm asking you! Have you told anyone else about the golden egg?"

"Your Majesty... Your Majesty!" The rat demon was startled, thinking he had done something wrong. "I even spoke with Rat Big and Rat Three!"

"Bring those two guys over here!"

"Yes, yes, yes!" Rat Two hurriedly replied, turned around and walked out. A moment later, he returned with a fellow who also had a rat's head and a human body.

"Your humble servant, Rat San, pays his respects to Your Majesty!"

"Hmm? Why is it just you! Where's Rat Big?" Yellow Wind Monster frowned.

"Your Majesty! Rat Big is missing!" Rat Three answered honestly.

"Gone? When did it disappear?"

"This morning, he told me to get up early to feed the chickens, but I haven't seen him yet!"

"Feed the chickens?" Yellow Wind Monster was taken aback. "Hasn't Rat Two always been in charge of this?"

"Your Majesty, spare me!" Rat Two suddenly knelt on the ground with a thud. "I've been lazy lately and left the task of feeding the chickens to Rat One, which was his own request!"

"What? How did you find the golden egg?"

"Your Majesty! It was Rat who told me about the golden egg!"

"Not good!" Huang Fengguai's expression suddenly changed, and he flung the golden egg in his hand away. However, it was too late. A small hole had already appeared in the golden egg, and a black spider crawled out from it!

"Heartless Spider!" Huang Feng's pupils shrank, and he tried to shake off the black spider, but the latter had already grabbed his arm tightly with its claws, and quickly spat out a stream of green viscous liquid.

"Ah!" The slime spread rapidly on the Yellow Wind Monster's arm like poison, and soon his entire right arm was completely covered in green.

"Quick! Get that spider away!" Yellow Wind Monster shouted in terror, calling to the two rats, Rat Two and Rat Three, who were standing there dumbfounded.

The two little demons then realized what was happening and hurriedly caught the black spider. However, before the two demons could even breathe a sigh of relief, Rat Three, who had caught the Heartless Spider, let out a shrill scream.

The green slime rapidly spread across his body. Since he didn't have the same level of power as the Yellow Wind Monster, it quickly spread throughout his entire body.

"Help...me..." The green blades moved upwards, quickly encroaching on Rat Three's neck. The guy struggled violently for a couple of moments as if his neck was being choked, then collapsed to the ground with a thud. His body twitched twice before falling silent.

"This..." Rat Two shuddered in fright, thinking to himself that it was a good thing it wasn't the spider he had caught.

"You bastard! Help me up!" Huang Feng cursed, his voice weak.

"Your Majesty! I deserve to die! Are you alright?" Only then did Rat Two remember the Yellow Wind Monster. At this moment, the latter had stopped the spread of the slime, but his right arm hung limply. Obviously, the venom had caused him great harm.

"I'm not dead yet!" Yellow Wind Monster gasped for breath. "But that was really close. If it had been any later, all my magical power would have been wasted!"

"Your Majesty! What exactly is that black spider?" Rat Two helped Yellow Wind Monster up, glanced at the Heartless Spider lying belly up not far away, and asked cautiously.

"That's a Heartless Spider!" Huang Fengguai said with lingering fear. "This kind of spider only grows on the corpses of Seven Emotions Spiders. Seven Emotions Spiders are born from the same egg, and the venom of the Heartless Spider becomes stronger with each one that dies. Fortunately, in the battle at the Spider Cave, only five spider demons died at my hands. If this were a Heartless Spider that had lost all six emotions, you and I would be doomed today!"

"Is Rat Three...?" Rat Two swallowed hard and asked, pointing to the motionless Rat Three beside him.

"You won't survive!" Huang Feng glanced at Rat Three. "The reason the Heartless Spider is named is because of its insidious love poison. Unless you can completely sever your seven emotions and six desires, you will not escape death! But in this world, even a reincarnated Great Luo Golden Immortal cannot completely abandon the seven emotions. Whether it is a demon or a human, everyone has the seven emotions and six desires. No one can escape them!"
