Chapter 219: Everyone Has Their Secrets
The spider web was made of some unknown material, its terrifying stickiness making it difficult for both of them to move. Yunyao chanted something, and her sword left her hand automatically, slashing at the web. However, the moment the sword touched the spider web, all its force was absorbed, and the treasured sword stuck to the web.
“Don’t waste your energy. This spider web isn’t ordinary. We probably can’t break free easily,” Zhanyue taunted.
“Hmph, it’s all because of you,” Yunyao glared at Zhanyue fiercely.
“You ungrateful woman, you’re really biting the hand that feeds you. If you hadn’t chased me so hard, how would we have crashed into this?” Zhanyue was exasperated.
As they were about to argue further, they felt a steady rhythm. Their peripheral vision caught sight of a huge cave in the nearby cliff. Something indescribably terrifying seemed to be coiled inside the cave, but its aura was stable, as if resting.
“Let’s be careful. If we wake that thing up, we’ll both lose our lives,” Zhanyue said softly. Then, a spark of flame appeared at his fingertip – the Three Talents Wondrous Fire. The mysterious spider silk seemed to meet its nemesis when it encountered this flame, melting like spring snow under the scorching sun. Yes, melting. Before long, Zhanyue freed himself from the web.
He flew in front of Yunyao, carefully examining the woman before him. Yunyao was firmly bound by the spider web, like a beautiful golden butterfly. Her hands were stuck to the web as she had tried to tear it, unable to move at all.
Zhanyue leaned in close, with a fierce expression.
“You nasty woman, try being fierce now,” Zhanyue felt extremely satisfied. After being chased and hunted by Yunyao for so long, he could finally hold his head high.
