Chapter 315: 315: Cliff After resting one night at the Fae Race's territory, the group left the next morning, heading to the next location where the other tribe lives. Their destination is somewhere in the north. To guide them, one of the fairies had joined the group. This is a young fairy who wanted to experience what it's like outside the village, thanks to the stories of Tan Bingyu. As per the command of Yue Xuexia, the Fae Queen ordered her race to be prepared for the incoming war. This war will involve them fighting with the Ape Race and the group of the Yue Xuexia to battle against the fallen Ancient Tree God and the Demonic Titanoboa at the center of the rainforest. To know when they will act, a fairy was chosen to follow the group of Yue Xuexia. The next village in the north is harder to find compared to the Fae Race's village. This is because the elementals are protecting the village of the elves. Before the group left the village of the Fae, Yue Xuexia visited the world tree and bid her farewell. She whispered to the world tree, "I have healed you. Don't get hurt anymore. I leave the protector of the Fae race in your care." There is no obvious response as the world tree spirit has entered slumber. However, the swaying of the world tree branch was like a sign of farewell to the ground, which Yue Xuexia accepted with a smile. Yue Xuexia finally turned around and looked at her group. "It's time to leave. Let's depart before the sun starts to set." With these words, the group departed from the Fae Race's village. The Fae Queen, standing beside the world tree, watches them leave before once again activating the formation around the territory. Once the group was out of range, the illusionary defensive formation from before was once again activated. --- On the way to the north, the group temporarily halted their journey as the first elder monkey and the little young fae were bickering, causing the group to divert from their original path. They ended up falling on a small cliff without preparation. Moreover, there is something in the way that causes them to feel sleepy. It even affected Shen Jueyang and Taiyang. Thus, the next moment the group opened their eyes, they woke up unable to move and were glued to a huge web under a cliff. Ugh~ Taiyang asked, "Is there anyone hurt?" He tried to move only to realize that he was unable to move freely, but when he used force to lift himself, he felt a force keeping him from lying down. So he moved his hand and ripped apart whatever was restraining him. He was stunned to see a silky and sticky thing in his hand. Taiyang complained, "What the hell is this? A web?" The Sentient monkey in their group whispered in warning, "Please don't shout. This place... This place must be the territory of the tarantulas." "Hih~ why those things? This is bad. Those guys like to live in groups and are all violent by nature. They are also carnivorous!" said the little fairy in their group. She looked so badly terrified by the thought that they would be surrounded by multiple large spiders in all directions. "Ah, what should we do? This is all your fault, you damn old monkey!" complained about the little feisty fae. The first elder monkey retorted, "It wasn't my fault alone, you rude bug! Who told you to lead us this way? You don't even know about this damn cliff!" "Of course, I know! It's your fault for distracting me!" rebuked the small fae. The elder monkey from the Ape Race and the little fairy from the Far Race started bickering once again. Taiyang was helping the others to remove the spider web on them and stand up on the ground. Among them, Yue Xuexia felt the most relaxed hanging on such a large web. Yue Xuexia commented, "This is not bad. It's like hanging in a huge hammock. Soft yet sturdy." "If it's not sticky, it would be perfect," said Shen Jueyang. Tan Bingyu was the quietest among the group. Her body started to stiffen when she heard the fact that there would be huge spiders in the group coming over to this area. She is quite tense, and everyone notices it. Taiyang said, "What's wrong with you? Did you get hurt somewhere during the fall? Let Xue'er check on you." "No... That's... not... it. I... am..." Tan Bingyu looked listless while looking around and flinching at any rustling sounds in the area. Yue Xuexia immediately noticed what was wrong and asked, "Sister Bingyu, are you afraid of spiders?" "I hate them," answered Tan Bingyu. Rustling sounds echoed in the dimmed area they were in, and they all turned vigilant, especially Tan Bingyu, who pulled her sword, and a chill came from her side. Taiyang cursed, "Fuck! Nothing is coming out yet! Can't you hold back your frost!" The temperature around Tan Bingyu dropped dramatically. The rustling in the area gets louder and more frequent. Everyone knows that the owner of this place has come over. "Here they come!" said Taiyang as a fire appeared on his hand. From all directions, a web was shot at them. Taiyang wanted to burn it down but was stopped by the elder monkey and the fae. The fae exclaims, "Don't use fire. These webs are highly combustible!" "With webs on our clothes and bodies, we will also be burned with the web!" The elder monkey said. Tsk! Taiyang clicked his tongue and took back his fire. He used his fist to punch the incoming web and make it explode on the spot. On the other hand, Shen Jueyang waves his hand in a knife form to cut the web into pieces. Chirps~ hiss~ hiss~ Countless more webs were about to fall on them, but ice shards were immediately cut into pieces, and the whole area was covered in ice. Tan Bingyu's aura exploded in panic, and her gaze was swirling in fear. Taiyang and Shen Jueyang barely offset it with their fire. With the web covered in ice, it won't easily catch fire right now. Seeing this, the huge tarantulas in the area all come out. Tan Bingyu's eyes widened at this sight, and she cursed, "Fuck! How can... it be... so... big?" She fainted on the spot that the white of her eyes was showing. Yue Xuexia calls, "Yangyang!" Taiyang had no other choice but to catch Tan Bingyu, who fainted in fear and was shocked. As for the others, they tried to defend themselves as much as possible. Shen Jueyang said, "I will burn down the cliff. Jump or fly as high as you can!" "Wait! Let me try something!" said Yue Xuexia. She suddenly recalled that unique skill she got when he signed in at the monkey village. Witch Doctor Skill: Insect Domination. This is a skill that uses one's presence to pressure an insect to submission. One needs to find a specific target to use this skill. Yue Xuexia looked around and found the spider with the strongest aura and used the skill Insect Domination on it. It is more like a mental-related skill instead of a physical one. The targeted spider quivered at Yue Xuexia's skill and gave up resisting accepting her dominant aura. A white tarantula the size of a human head jumped on Yue Xuexia's head. Everyone was shocked, as Shen Jueyang was about to kill it on the spot but was stopped by Yue Xuexia. Yue Xuexia held the hand of Shen Jueyang, which intended to flick away the white spider staying on her head. "STOP! This little one is my tamed spider. She is the leader of all these tarantulas," Yue Xuexia said. Shen Jueyang looked at the slender yet warm hand that held his hand. He immediately stopped and stared at their hands, holding each other. Yue Xuexia's actions meant nothing, as she had only forgotten to let go as she ordered the white tarantula on her head to calm the other spiders on this cliff. Hiss! That one sound sent all the spiders in the area away. The sounds of crawling and rushing immediately dispersed in a few minutes, and no spiders attacked them after that. The number of spiders on this cliff is clearly numerous, but who would have expected that the leader would be a small one like the one in Yue Xuexia's head? Seeing the danger is no longer present, Yue Xuexia let go of Shen Jueyang's hand, making the latter look a bit disappointed. She grabbed the spider on her head and looked at it. It was such a slightly chubby tarantula. It looks like a soft-stuffed spider that looks so squishy and soft. Yue Xuexia mumbles, "Cute~ little one. Do you want to come with me?" Chirps~ Hearing a positive response in her mind, Yue Xuexia smiled and said, "Alright. Your name shall be Xiao Meng (Little Cutie)." With this, the spiritual pets in Yue Xuexia's possession had once again increased by one. With Xiao Meng's help, the group successfully climbed up the cliff. It seems that this cliff had a ban that prevented others from flying. If they had gone through the plan of Shen Jueyang just now, they would have turned into charcoal. After reaching the top surface, everyone sighed in relief. They only continued their journey after Tan Bingyu woke up from her unconscious state. She didn't see Xiao Meng when she woke up, as the sentient white tarantula was capable of shrinking itself further and hid in her master's sleeves.
