Chapter 162: Rescuing Shadowless 19

Situ Tengyi was completely dumbfounded. He had assumed that blowing up the male spider's ninth single eye would mean certain death for it, yet destroying one eye seemed to pose no threat to it at all!

The power of the two spiders far exceeded his imagination!

Meanwhile, as dawn broke, Luo Xia immediately began setting up her layout.

Originally, she did not have absolute certainty of winning, but with Wuying's joining, they would definitely be able to slay the spiders!

Calculating Wuying's intelligence, she figured he must have repaired his avatars almost completely by now.

Luo Xia was brimming with confidence.

As for Pang Xiaoyu and his sister, they felt as though Luo Xia was playing a child's game. Tier-nine spiders soaking in a hot spring? Wasn't that a joke?

"Miss Luo, are you certain this will lure the spiders out?" Pang Xiaoyu did not hold out much hope for her either.

Luo Xia smiled slightly. "Brother Pang doesn't believe me?"

Pang Xiaoyu shook his head.

"If you can lure the spiders out this way, I'll write my name backwards!" Pang Qingyu felt that Luo Xia was simply wasting time.

Facing the skepticism of the Pang siblings, Luo Xia maintained her smile. "Care to make a bet?"

Oh no, another bet?

Pang Qingyu recalled how miserably she had lost back in the cavern.

"What? Too chicken?" Luo Xia raised an eyebrow.

Pang Qingyu patted her chest. "A bet is a bet, who's afraid of whom?"

"And the stakes?" Luo Xia's smile was innocent.

The Pang siblings were far too wealthy; fleecing them heavily was practically doing justice on behalf of heaven.

"Ten thousand green crystals!"

To others, spirit crystals were a luxury item for cultivation, but to Pang Qingyu, they were mere pocket change. After all, who else had a brother who was a super-genius at making money?

Luo Xia smiled. "Deal."

Thinking of her personal treasury, Luo Xia chuckled inwardly.

"And what about your stakes?"

"How about I use the treasures from the first station as the stakes?" Luo Xia asked with a beaming smile.

Pang Qingyu was so angry she felt like pulling her hair out. Was Luo Xia deliberately pressing her sore spot?

"Fine!" Pang Qingyu gritted her teeth!

She really wanted those crystal stone tables from the first station.

"Does Brother Pang want to bet?" Luo Xia asked Pang Xiaoyu with a smile.

Seeing how confident Luo Xia was, Pang Xiaoyu couldn't help but feel skeptical, though he truly did not back her chances.

"I'll put up ten thousand green crystals as a stake as well."

Ha, she was going to net twenty thousand green crystals in one go! This was a massive windfall!

Luo Xia was ecstatic!

"How about Miss Luo puts up the treasures from the second station as the stake?" Pang Xiaoyu suggested with a smile.

Luo Xia agreed without even thinking.

You two—are bound to lose!

Before long, Luo Xia and her companions dug a large well right in front of the spider cave, and then brought out the Spring Eye Pot to pour water into the well—

Upon seeing the Spring Eye Pot, the Pang siblings froze—

And when they saw the pool filled with steaming hot spring water, the siblings immediately thought of the spiritual hot spring from the third station—that wonderful place that had helped them advance in rank!

When Luo Xia proceeded to plant nine rank-advancement spiritual herbs around it, the siblings were completely flabbergasted!

"This is the treasure from the third station! You actually dug it up, no wonder the spiritual energy vanished at the very end!" Pang Qingyu pointed at Luo Xia, her voice trembling slightly.

Even Pang Xiaoyu was exceptionally stirred!

With this Spring Eye Pot, wouldn't it be effortless for him to advance in rank in the future?

Luo Xia replied with a serene smile, "The Spring Eye Pot spent over two thousand years accumulating spiritual energy and released it all at the third station, which you've already completely absorbed. You should be content. If you want to wait for it to gather enough spiritual energy again, it will take many, many years."

Just as Luo Xia finished speaking, a loud explosion—*boom*—sounded!

The Pang siblings quickly grabbed Luo Xia and leaped aside, narrowly escaping injury from the sharp, jagged stones sent flying out of the spider cave.
