Chapter 26 White Bone Demon VS Spider Demon
With only a few days left until Yao Ji's delivery, the entire Yang family was on high alert.
Yang Tianyou stopped going to the academy to teach, and his servants moved in early, fearing that he might suddenly go into labor.
Only Yao Ji and Xiao Yang Jiao didn't seem nervous. The mother and daughter were playing cat's cradle in the room when Xiao Yang Jiao's fingers suddenly stopped moving.
"What's wrong? Have you given up?"
Yao Ji looked on with amusement.
At that moment, Yang Jiao hesitated for a second, then suddenly returned to normal, and started acting like a rascal, crossing her arms and flopping onto the bed, whimpering:
“Mother is bullying the younger one. Your fingers are even longer than Jiao’er’s. I lose, I lose.”
The little one kept yelling and rolling around on the bed, kicking the neatly made bed until it was all crumpled.
Yao Ji frowned for a moment, then coaxed:
"Then if you lose, go to sleep quietly."
"Humph."
She pouted and ran off, only to suddenly lean against the wall once she was out of the room.
Just now, the system suddenly sent a notification.
Two little monsters have appeared in Guanjiangkou!
Ever since Xiao Yangjiao exchanged for the fragment of the Guanjiangkou Earth God, she has been able to learn about this place.
This is the first time a monster has appeared.
Two still!
How could she possibly miss such an opportunity?
Immediately, Xiao Yangjiao first ran to the secret room in the backyard and randomly picked up Yao Ji's demon-slaying bow, which did not resonate with magic artifacts, to protect herself. Then she took out the jade branch from her ear and flew over without Yao Ji noticing.
As night deepened, the entire Yangjia Village was immersed in tranquility, with few houses still lit by candlelight, and the whole place was pitch black.
After flying for a few minutes, Xiao Yangjiao arrived at the location indicated by the system. She carefully landed on a treetop and looked down.
Under the moonlight, a bare skeleton was tilting its head back, absorbing the moon's yin energy. The skull's upper and lower jaws opened and closed with a thud, then it exhaled a comfortable mist.
The skeletal frame stretched and stretched, the sound of tiny bones grinding together sending chills down your spine.
The bones, originally pure white, gradually began to turn gray under the shadow of the moon, turning towards black.
"That can't be right. Black energy is evil, so this bone is meant for demonic cultivation?"
Once a demon is possessed, it will start eating people. The key is that it's located within the territory of Guanjiangkou. If its fairy mother finds out, even if she's in the middle of giving birth, she'll have to put the baby back in and get up to kill it.
Thinking of this, Xiao Yangjiao's heart tightened.
We must clean this up quickly, so as not to disturb Yao Ji!
She gripped the demon-slaying bow and swiftly stood up on the tree, ready to leap down in a super cool way and shout "Hey!"
But just as he stood up, a huge spider web crashed down on him with a whoosh.
"Ouch!"
He instantly stuck her to him, and no matter how much she struggled, it was useless.
The sound immediately drew the attention of the skeleton beneath the tree.
Only then did Xiao Yang Jiao realize that the system had told her there were two monsters!
Great!
She looked up to see where the web had come from. The surrounding tree canopy began to sway, and the leaves rustled incessantly. A moment later, an enormous spider crawled out from within, with legs eight meters long and a body the size of two or three adult men!
"Oh my god, it's a spider demon!"
After Xiao Yangjiao finished wailing, she looked down again and saw that white hair was rapidly growing on the white skeleton. She cried out in despair.
"The White Bone Demon!"
"You appeared six or seven hundred years too early! Didn't you two eat Tang Sanzang? Eating me won't make you immortal."
The lousy system tricked her again, didn't it?
Two little monsters too?
These two are worthy of being the main characters in a short series; each of them could star in two episodes, which would be longer than the original owner of the body in the Lotus Lantern.
*crying emoji* o(╥﹏╥)o
Just as the spider demon was getting closer and closer to her, about to pierce her through with its two front claws.
The White Bone Demon flew over from under the tree and snatched her away.
The spider demon missed its target and angrily swung its forelegs. With a few cracking sounds, the big tree snapped in two.
Xiao Yangjiao was startled and quickly turned to the White Bone Demon, saying:
"Thank you so much, you're so kind."
"You're celebrating too soon."
The White Bone Demon was utterly impolite. Not only did she not say it was alright, but she also retorted, and then her hair grew like a waterfall, instantly wrapping her up like a rice dumpling.
Only a small head was visible, looking around.
Just as he opened his mouth wide, ready to smash a head in...
How could the spider demon let go of the meat that was already in her mouth? She quickly climbed down from the tree and forced the White Bone Demon back with a single move.
At this moment, she realized that she didn't recognize these two monsters!
"You two don't get along?"
She instantly received two fierce gazes that seemed to pierce through her.
Okay, she shut up.
The two monsters were locked in a fierce battle, with the spider demon constantly spitting out silk and its forelimbs whistling through the air with each swing, sharp as blades.
Not to be outdone, the White Bone Demon unleashed her fury, shooting it like thousands of sharp needles at the Spider Demon. Gradually, the hair that controlled her body was drawn into the battle by the White Bone Demon.
After regaining her freedom, Xiao Yangjiao pondered for a long time, wanting to find the moment when the two figures overlapped and activate the light of her Heavenly Eye to eliminate the two demons in one fell swoop. At this moment, the system's voice suddenly rang in her ears.
[Host poses a danger; task selection initiated.]
[1. After the Heavenly Eye eliminates the monster, you will be rewarded with two card draw tokens.]
[Part Two: Subdue monsters; each monster rewards five gacha tokens.]
"This... choosing the second option is way too risky! I'm only two years old, how could I possibly subdue a powerful demon?"
But you can get ten free draws by exchanging two monsters.
Even though I don't know if the item will be good or bad, once you get hooked on this game, you'll still want to give it a try even if you know you won't get a top-tier character.
There is a chance involved in drawing lots.
If you don't smoke, you'll definitely get nothing!
After a long internal struggle, she steeled herself, stamped her foot, and gritted her teeth:
"I choose option two!"
Give it a try and turn your bicycle into a motorcycle.
The demon-slaying bow in her hand had two arrows. Just as she was about to shoot at the White Bone Demon, the spider demon suddenly used its claw to knock the White Bone Demon back several steps, crashing straight into a tree before finally stopping.
"Hmph, you think you can compete with me with your measly hundred years of cultivation?"
After the spider demon spoke in human language, Xiao Yangjiao was puzzled:
"Hmm? Only a little over a hundred years of cultivation!"
That's right! Journey to the West begins after the Investiture of the Gods, and there are five hundred years in between when the Great Sage Equaling Heaven was imprisoned under the Five Fingers Mountain. Didn't these two become powerful demons who dominated their respective regions during that time?
Since it's still just a little monster, why not bully it while we can?!
Little Yang Jiao shouted at the two monsters:
"Hey, everyone stop for a second."
The two demons turned around and looked at her, quite puzzled that this human child had the audacity to speak to them. They immediately stopped and stared at her.
"That's right, everything can be discussed, I'll give you two choices."
"First, be shot to death by my demon-slaying bow; second, become my attendant, and from now on, you are forbidden from killing and must cultivate diligently."
Upon hearing this, the two monsters suddenly burst out laughing.
One was hissing and the other was giggling—it was extremely disrespectful to children!
Xiao Yangjiao snorted coldly and drew the Demon-Slaying Bow to its full extent once again.
At this moment, the spider demon finally saw the magical artifact in the little girl's hand, and took a step back in alarm, saying to the white bone demon:
"Stop hitting him! The magical artifact in this little beast's hand is no ordinary weapon."
"One arrow can kill a demon who has cultivated for a hundred years, and I, a spirit who has been cultivating for more than three hundred years, cannot withstand two arrows!"
Upon hearing this, the White Bone Demon also began to look at her seriously.
Her bones turned pale instantly.
Suddenly, the White Bone Demon looked at Xiao Yang Jiao's bow, which only had two arrows nocked. Her empty eye sockets deepened, and she laughed:
"What's there to be afraid of! She only has two arrows. No matter which one of us she shoots, we'll all die today."
Upon hearing this, the spider demon hissed and laughed.
"Little girl, if you shoot that White Bone Demon to death with one arrow first, I promise I won't eat you."
"Damn it, you even lie to children! You shot both arrows at this fat spider!"
Xiao Yangjiao stood between the two monsters.
Now, in front of us is the White Bone Demon, and behind us is the Spider Demon.
They all coveted her, and just when they thought that young Yang Jiao must not know what to choose, she did not hesitate at all.
Draw the bow and nock the arrow.
call out--
An arrow struck the spider demon.
The White Bone Demon burst into laughter. To be honest, she was terrified that Yang Jiao would shoot her dead first, since she only needed one arrow.
As for now, it remains to be seen who will ultimately eat this little baby.
The arrow struck the spider demon, turning into specks of light that seeped into its body, causing it to writhe in pain and knock down several trees.
At this moment, Xiao Yangjiao stood between them and drew her bow fully again.
"Now you all only need one arrow."
"The rest depends on your performance."
