Chapter 484: The Carriage Ride

The emerald spider walked calmly.

…

She, on the other hand, never expected that one day she would be opened by someone like a box.

It was more like being found along the thread of a web than being opened.

Once so arrogant, now so obedient, quiet… absolutely adorable but clueless.

She realized that before she had only lost a part of herself, but now, after a fierce argument, she was risking her own life.

Normally, she would have taken the initiative, fierce and decisive, aiming for a fatal blow.

But now, she was too scared to even make eye contact, her legs trembling as she watched.

Her smile gradually became ingratiating and self-deprecating.

Ah, what should I say…

In the blink of an eye, she was sentenced to death because of her hurtful words.

It’s quite sudden, right…

Fighting was definitely out of the question; seeing the opponent’s dazzling aura, their spiritual power was already materialized, reaching a heroic spirit level.

How could I have provoked such an opponent? What have I done wrong?

The Jade Spider said, "Actually, it was my junior sister’s idea. I had no idea at first, really…"

Bai Wei nodded, "Is that all?"

Then he raised his hand.

The Jade Spider saw the hand gradually rising and her voice quivered, "If you don’t do it, please… I beg you…"

Bai Wei shook his head, "I’m very busy too, so just say your last words."

The Jade Spider pleaded difficultly, "I can do what my junior sister can do… she still seems useful to you, and I am useful too. I know everything, 18 forms, 28 forms, 48 forms…"

"I can go with her…"

"Or I can hold her down for you…"

"Apart from the spider demon, anyone else would do!"

"Goat!"

"Lizard!"

"Elephant!"

"Ant!"

Snap!

Bai Wei slapped the crazy spider demon on the head with his hand, using a special move that flattened her instantly.

The emperor disgustedly shook his hand and said, "This monster is really dirty…"

He turned around and disappeared where he stood.

The jade spider was a core member of the royal family but died mysteriously in the cave, which would surely cause some disturbance.

On top of the gloomy mountain, a furious roar erupted, and a sinister aura filled the sky, "Investigate thoroughly!"

…

"Your senior sister is gone," Bai Wei said to the colored bead, "She was permanently banned because of her foul mouth."

At this moment, the female gatherer of healing herbs sat quietly on the bed, afraid to move a muscle.

The recent confrontation seemed intense, but it was actually very subdued, without any sound reaching outside of this room.

Even before they had a chance to move, they were suppressed by a single palm that held dominance throughout the ages.

Cat paws were indeed heavy, and the power of a tiger’s paw was no joke. She felt like her waist had been crushed.

She clearly saw what had just happened, but couldn’t quite understand it. Senior sister’s clone suddenly shattered, like porcelain.

It was her first time seeing such a phenomenon. If one’s cultivation was deep enough, they would definitely recognize it as the dissolution of the original body and the shattering of the primordial spirit.

She only knew one thing, that is… Sister is gone, I’m gone too.

Now, her life and death are in the hands of this person in front of her. Whether she lives or not, she has no say, but to die… Well, she doesn’t have the courage for that either.

It’s better to cling to life than to die. Don’t expect a spider demon to have any dignity. How much can dignity be worth? How many lives can it exchange for?

The little pearl asked cautiously, "Are you really here to introduce a job to me?"

Bai Wei retorted, "What else would it be?"

"No, nothing…" The little pearl honestly spoke the truth, "I thought you could see from the beginning that I had ulterior motives."

"You not only have ulterior motives, but you are also full of wisdom. Considering your exceptional talents, I think I can exploit your remaining labor value." Bai Wei said, "But now seeing how ruthless you all have been, I suddenly feel that killing you would be better."

"Please exploit my remaining value!" The little pearl immediately knelt down, bowing her head to the ground.

"Wages…"

"Don’t need money!" she thought, as long as she could keep her life.

"You’re right, life is worth more than money," said Bai Wei. "You planned to harm the people in the merchant group from the beginning. I actually have a thousand reasons to kill you, but why do you think I’m keeping you alive now?"

"Is it because I still have some use?" asked Caizhu.

"What kind of use do you think you have?"

"Keeping the bed warm?"

"I need you to keep my bed warm?" Bai Wei asked. "I really don’t understand, are all the fairies from the Ten Thousand Demon Kingdom so ordinary and confident?"

Caizhu couldn’t think of what use she could have, but at least she understood that she wouldn’t die. "Thank you for sparing my life, sir. I will…"

Bai Wei didn’t pay attention to these pointless words, it was like farting in front of him. Before leaving, he asked her a chilling question.

"Are all you spider spirits truly respectful to the elderly and protective of the young? One enters and a whole group follows?"

…

After Bai Wei left the room, he saw Chao Lu waiting and asked, "Can’t sleep?

"A little bit," Chao Lu asked curiously, "Why didn’t you kill it?"

She had suspected that the female herb gatherer was definitely up to something, but couldn’t confirm which kind of monster it was disguised as. Now that she could clearly see it was a spider, she felt it would be better to eliminate it, because spider monsters were always numerous and never-ending.

Bai Wei said, "It’s still useful to keep it. You don’t want to continue walking so slowly, right? Staying up late and not sleeping, just to watch the excitement?"

Chao Lu shook her head and said, "Of course not, it’s just that… we had a little argument. I’ll sleep outside tonight, it’s a good opportunity to be with you."

"An argument? With Nalan?" Bai Wei was puzzled, "You also have these childish moments?"

"It’s a long story." Chao Lu didn’t plan to explain the reason for the argument in detail, "But I’d rather take a bit of a loss myself."

"Hmm?" Bai Wei was about to say something when he suddenly felt a comforting warmth approaching. A soft body pressed against him, and a gentle hand caressed the patterns on his bronze mask.

"Ice-cold…" Chao Lu leaned on the young man’s shoulder. "It doesn’t have the tiniest bit of warmth."

Bai Wei sighed, "Don’t be so reckless just because I’m a puppet. Even though you can’t feel it, I still have a little bit of imagination for the senses."

"I know, as a reward for your hard work, I’ll give you some benefits."

Princess Bai Ze, like a cat, approached and rubbed against him. She had green hair and snow-white skin.

"You also know how to give the machine some lubricating oil."

Bai Wei glanced sideways, rarely having the chance to admire her face up close. He never had the opportunity to see a girl from this angle before.

If it were me, I would definitely avoid it, but because I’m a puppet, I didn’t really do anything.

"You’re making it sound like I’m a bad woman."

"Indeed, you’re not one now."

"Why now?"

"Because no one can predict the future," said Bai Wei. "How much longer do we have to endure?"

"Just for one night, let me rest here for a while," whispered Chao Lu. "I am the primary wife, I have the right to do so."

"How many more times do we have to go through this?" Bai Wei sighed, but he didn’t push her away or reject her. He understood Chao Lu’s thoughts at this moment. He had experienced a similar situation in a previous life when the Black Rose coven was just starting out and the witches were not yet familiar with each other. Snow Leopard and a noblewoman named Koi Fish would often argue and pick fights. Initially, Snow Leopard always lost those fights and her sisters would help in Koi Fish’s defense. But as time went by, one day Koi Fish lost an argument and came to Bai Wei’s office, still angry. At that moment, Bai Wei smiled and realized that she had finally integrated into the group.

Being favored doesn’t always mean it’s a good thing. It can also be a form of distancing. Snow Leopard could compensate and comfort herself for her losses, but Koi Fish in the past couldn’t. She had to appear tough and handle everything on her own. If she kept losing arguments, she would quickly lose confidence in fitting in with the group.

This time, it was the same. Chao Lu allowed Nalan to win once, seeking comfort for herself. She knew she still had a safe haven, while Nalan no longer did. She didn’t need to worry about anything else. To make herself feel better, all she needed was to return to her safe haven.

What a wonderful safe haven it was.

Bai Wei self-deprecatingly remarked, "Unfortunately, I arrived late in life."

…

On this clear morning, Rainbow Bead, who had prepared herself mentally, was ready for the storm, but she never expected…

"Before noon today, you must run to Hujia Grave with your eight legs at least five times faster than usual."

Bai Wei untied the horse’s rein and threw it in front of her, giving her a capitalist look.

"Go."

"Pull the cart."
