Chapter 55 You're such a jerk

Wen Ning never intended to keep the Eight Spider Lances, his external soul bone, for himself.

If she really wants it, she can wait to get the third spirit ring and come to the Star Dou Great Forest when the time is right.

To put it simply, she just didn't want Tang San to have it.

Yes, that's how vicious it is.

Under everyone's watchful eyes, fine beads of blood began to appear on Wen Lin's back again, and his whole body was convulsing violently.

Then, the eight protrusions suddenly burst open. Strangely, Wen Lin's skin did not curl back. Eight fist-sized, dark purple objects emerged from the eight protrusions and grew wildly at an astonishing rate.

When the eight protrusions ruptured and grew out dark purple objects, Wen Lin relaxed a lot, and even the expression on his face relaxed, but the spasms in his body continued.

Under everyone's astonished gaze, the deep purple object had grown to more than a meter long in the blink of an eye, and was still extending at an alarming rate.

When it grew to over 1.5 meters, it paused slightly, and at the end, something like a joint grew out. As the dark purple color extended again, it extended in another direction from the joint.

Everyone was stunned by what they saw. Qi Lin stood there, mouth agape, "This...this is..."

The eight dark purple objects grew to over three meters long before stopping. They were shiny purple and had extremely smooth surfaces. They were thickest near the back and gradually thinned outwards, becoming as sharp as a cone at the very end.

Looking at the final form, Qi Lin couldn't help but exclaim, "Isn't this just the spider leg of the Human-Faced Demon Spider?"

His words successfully voiced all the doubts in everyone's hearts.

Although Feng Qi and Xie Yue didn't speak, they nodded subconsciously when they heard those words.

I agreed with what he said.

These are indeed the legs of the human-faced spider.

Looking at Wen Lin, and then at the corpse of the human-faced spider lying on the ground, everyone was surprised to find that the object growing from Wen Lin's back was very similar to the spider's legs, only thinner overall, but with a better luster.

Jiang Que had seen many soul masters absorb soul rings, but this was the first time he had ever witnessed such a scene, and for a moment he lost his ability to judge.

The strange events didn't end there. After the eight spider legs stretched out behind Wen Lin, they began to pulsate slightly. The four lower spider legs slowly pierced the ground, lifting Wen Lin, who was sitting cross-legged, into the air.

At this moment, Wen Lin looked extremely strange, as if he had gained eight arms, each three meters long.

His body finally stopped convulsing, and his clothes were completely torn.

Seeing this, Wen Ning finally took action, using tree branches to wrap his entire body.

Her actions drew everyone's attention. Hu Liena asked, puzzled, "Xiao Ning, what are you doing?"

Why wrap Wen Lin up with tree branches?

Wen Ning wanted to say that she didn't know either; the system had told her to do it.

But she couldn't say that, so she had to bite the bullet and make up an excuse: "I feel like he needs something to cover himself up right now."

Thinking of the torn clothes on Wen Lin's body, Hu Liena slowly came back to her senses and nodded thoughtfully.

However, Wen Lin did not react to this package, and no sound came out for a long time.

If it weren't for the eight spider legs on his back constantly moving, people might have thought he was unconscious.

Time flew by, the sky gradually brightened from darkness, and then returned to darkness. After a whole day had passed, the person who was wrapped up finally showed signs of moving.

The branches that had enveloped his body began to burn slowly, the initially weak flames gradually growing stronger until they were completely reduced to ashes, and Wen Lin's body reappeared before everyone.

However, after seeing his body clearly, Wen Ning instantly conjured a wall of water to completely cover him, making it impossible for everyone to see him.

Wen Lin, who had just opened his eyes, was still a little confused as to why Wen Ning was doing this. But after realizing what was happening, he immediately understood and took out a set of clothes from his soul guide ring to change into.

The flames had burned away the last bit of clothing he had on him, so Wen Ning saw Wen Lin completely naked.

That's why I did what I just did.

After Wen Lin finished dressing, Wen Ning removed the water wall.

Seeing that he had finally woken up, everyone gathered around. Qi Lin was the most talkative and the first to speak, "What happened? Why did it take you so long to absorb the spirit ring? And what's with those eight spider legs on your back?"

As he spoke, he raised his hand to touch the spider leg on Wen Lin's back, but he immediately withdrew his hand as soon as he touched the sharp spikes. Wen Lin's expression changed instantly. "What's wrong?"

Almost immediately, large drops of sweat appeared on Qi Lin's forehead and slid down his forehead, indicating that he was enduring great pain.

A scream escaped his throat, sounding rather pitiful.

Not a single mistake, not a single poem, not a single post, not a single piece of content, not a single look!

Wen Ning cursed inwardly and immediately reached out and grabbed him.

"You're so clumsy."

Although she said that, her hands worked without hesitation, quickly treating Qi Lin.

The Emerald Swan truly lives up to its reputation as the strongest healing-type soul beast; even the poison of the Human-Faced Demon Spider is no match for it.

Qi Lin's complexion began to recover, and his hands, which had shown signs of festering, healed at a speed visible to the naked eye. In just a few breaths, he was as good as new.

Even though he had recovered, he was still shaken. Recalling Wen Ning's words, a bitter smile appeared on his face as he explained, somewhat palely, "I just wanted to touch it, who knew my leg was poisonous?"

Hearing his words, Wen Ning simply rolled her eyes. "Have you touched enough? Want to touch me again?"

Qi Lin shook his head repeatedly, "Forget it, forget it, I'm afraid I can't handle it if I try again."

The venom of the Human-Faced Demon Spider is extremely potent, as evidenced by the scream Qi Lin let out after touching its leg.

Seeing that Qi Lin had returned to normal, everyone finally breathed a sigh of relief. However, someone soon spoke up, "Xiao Lin, these spider legs..."

Xie Yue looked confused, as if she wanted to get an answer from Wen Lin.

Unfortunately, Wen Lin himself didn't know the answer.

However, he is now certain of one thing: "The spider legs that grew on my back are likely carrying the venom of the Human-Faced Demon Spider. I don't know why I absorbed the venom of the Human-Faced Demon Spider when I absorbed the Soul Ring."

Seeing that even he himself could not give an answer, everyone's eyes turned to Jiang Que.

As the Dean of Studies at the Spirit Hall Academy, does Jiang Que know why this is?
