He then hung it from the attic of this house, where it was baked to death by the sun.
If any new demons come to Mount Natagumo in the future, Rui will try to invite them to become his family.
If the existing family members do not fit the image of family in Lei's mind, he will also replace them.
"Yes, I understand, I'm tired." The spider mother trembled violently as she was swept by Lei's gaze, and answered tremblingly while trying to appear calm.
"I understand, I'm tired." *2
In comparison, the older brother and sister seemed much more natural.
After all, as siblings, the responsibilities they need to fulfill are much fewer than those of their parents.
The less they did, the fewer mistakes they made, so they had an easier time compared to their mother, who was often punished.
As for his father, he did not answer, after all, he was just a puppet who only knew how to obey orders and had no consciousness of his own.
After receiving Lei's orders, the Spider Demon family members left one after another to fulfill their responsibilities as family members.
After leaving the dilapidated thatched-roof wooden house, even Spider Sister breathed a sigh of relief.
Although they are called 'family', none of the ghosts like this house from the bottom of their hearts.
For them, this is not home, but a forced workplace, and their job is to play house with Lei, who loves playing house.
Except for 'Dad', all the ghosts knew this was just playing house.
After all, they are ghosts, and all they need to do is eat people; they don't need all this messy tableware.
But no one dared to say it.
No, not only did no one dare to say it, but they even had to pretend to be happy.
Eating together is a ritual that demonstrates the bond between family members. If someone is unhappy, it disrupts family harmony and will be punished!
At that time, this house will not only be a cage and a workplace, but also an execution ground.
This is the fifth lower moon, a childish game built on fear and threats, belonging to him!
Since it was just a game, just like how each ghost was assigned a different identity and had to perform different duties, they each had their own area of responsibility.
As they were about to part, the spider brother let out a strange laugh at his mother.
"Hehehe, Mom, you'd better work hard and not make Dad angry again, hehehehe..."
Although what was said sounded like a reminder, it was by no means out of goodwill.
It sounded more like sarcasm.
"I...I understand. I will kill the intruder!"
Upon hearing Spider Brother's words, Mom shuddered violently, as if she had imagined some terrifying scene.
Although she plays the role of "mother", she has no status in the family. She is timid, always gets things done but is always frustrated, and is often subjected to violence by her "father".
Because her father was irrational, he would often get angry for no reason and physically abuse her.
Although ghosts don't die, the pain they experience is not reduced.
Therefore, it can be said that the mother lives in fear every day.
Unlike the spider brother, whose personality was even more twisted and who didn't forget to mock his 'mother' before leaving, the spider sister simply watched this scene indifferently, a hint of disdain flashing in her eyes.
However, he didn't say much, and left without uttering a word.
As for the spider father, he didn't even say goodbye to anyone. The moment he left "home," he hopped away like a big monkey, using the large trees that two people could hug to support him.
Chapter 382 A Real Man Doesn't Look Back at an Explosion
"Hehe~, everyone's in position, right? Well then, let me end this clumsy game of pretend play. Let's start with the ugliest one..."
After determining the location of each member of the spider family using his white eyes, Xia Yan, standing at a Y-shaped fork in the road, made a choice to himself.
The sound of spiders crawling could be heard everywhere in the forest.
This animal seems to have an innate ability to send chills down your spine.
The segments tapped against the dry leaves or climbed on the branches and trunks. Though subtle, the sound was continuous, and the clicking sound was so irritating that it made people feel restless.
People with poor psychological resilience or rich imaginations may even feel nauseous as a result.
Click——click——
Just as Xia Yan was talking to himself, a bizarre-looking spider with a human head, about the size of a millstone including its legs, crawled out from behind him.
The creature seemed to have no intention of concealing its presence; its weight far exceeded that of a normal spider, and it made a chilling sound as it stepped on the ground.
However, even if it didn't make any sound, it wouldn't have any effect in the face of Xia Yan's disdain.
This spider has an extremely terrifying appearance, like a monster crawling out of a nightmare.
Although it retains the overall shape of the 613 spider, it lacks the arthropod's exoskeleton; all its limbs and torso are made of twisted flesh.
Generally speaking, it has a strange color, like the color of a corpse that has been dead for three days without any treatment, and its body is covered with strange patterns formed by twisted blood vessels and veins.
The extremities were blood red, like a skinned corpse.
The most bizarre thing is that where the spider's head should be, there is a human head instead.
With an eerie, deathly white color, the hair on his head looked as if it had been forcibly pulled out, leaving only a few scattered strands.
The head was almost the size of a spider's rear end; the bizarre proportions created a strong sense of disharmony.
Seemingly having experienced intense pain, his bloodshot eyes bulged out like a goldfish's.
His lifeless and empty gaze was fixed on Xia Yan.
Judging from the soft facial features, this head seems to belong to a woman.
To be more precise, this spider was transformed from a woman!
The Spider Demon family were originally a group of extremely weak demons with mediocre talents, who had not even awakened their own Blood Demon Arts.
Most of them were chased by the Demon Slayer Corps and had nowhere to go but to Mount Natagumo, where they were rescued by Rui and then joined the Corps.
He gained the power of Blood Demon Art by drinking the blood of Lower Moon Five, Rui.
Because the origin of Blood Demon Art is the Spider Demon Rui, every demon's Blood Demon Art is inevitably related to spiders.
Rather than saying they awakened the Blood Demon Art, it's more like Rui shared his Blood Demon Art with his family.
Spider Brother's Blood Demon Art, besides the most basic ability to control spiders on the mountain, is also poison!
His poison has the ability to turn those who are poisoned into spiders.
Generally, poisoning will cause numbness and tingling in the hands and feet. These symptoms will continue to worsen, and after twenty minutes, they will be accompanied by a strong feeling of dizziness and vomiting.
After 25 minutes, intense pain will occur, the body will begin to shrink, and then the person will faint.
During the period of coma, the body continues to be transformed under the influence of toxins.
Upon waking up, a brand new human-headed spider had been successfully created.
These created spiders have no self-awareness, completely obey the spider brother's commands, and each one carries the same toxin that can turn people into spiders.
In addition, the spider brother can also spray venom directly from his mouth, turning it into highly corrosive venomous phlegm.
"Tsk!"
Xia Yan frowned slightly as he watched the spider-like creature crawling towards him, a hint of disgust flashing in his eyes.
He wasn't afraid of spiders, but deep down he just couldn't bring himself to like them.
Keng——
The sound of swords rang out.
A wind blade, almost tangible, pierced through the body of the human-headed spider with lightning speed, then flew into the depths of the forest, leaving a smooth, even cut on the ground.
This is not some extraordinary ability like sword energy; it is simply the wind pressure created by swinging a sword.
"Mumei Shinpu Ryukenjutsu" is a sword technique that can manipulate the flow of air, but it requires specific moves to unleash its power.
After obtaining the Stand ability of "Anubis", Xia Yan's swordsmanship talent was maxed out, and his swordsmanship reached a new level.
Therefore, even without using any sword shape, simply swinging the blade is enough to create wind pressure with powerful destructive force.
Xia Yan casually twirled his sword, then sheathed it and walked along the chosen path without looking back.
He left behind only a dashing silhouette, exuding the aura of a master.
A real man doesn't look back at the spoils of his labor!
The spider-like creature, its head slashed by the wind blades, continued its pursuit of Xia Yan as if nothing had happened.
She had only taken two steps when a line of blood spread from the center of her nose, dividing her body symmetrically into two parts.
puff--
Bright red blood gushed out, and the next second, the still-crawling humanoid spider suddenly split in two.
However, it was because the wind blade that Xia Yan swung was too sharp. Even though it had cut the opponent in half, the opponent himself did not realize it.
Although the spider-headed creature looks quite terrifying, and ordinary people might even faint from fright, to be honest, it's just scary in appearance; it's not that powerful.
The spider with the human head split in two struggled twice and then stopped moving.
His previously blank stare now held a hint of relief.
Since it is not a demon, but an ordinary human transformed by the Blood Demon Art, it can be killed even if the damage is not caused by the Nichirin Blade.
After walking several dozen steps, a sudden enlightenment dawned.
A crescent moon hung in the sky, and before them lay a relatively open space, where a dilapidated wooden house was suspended in mid-air by extremely thin spider silk.
Next to the wooden house, there were several other humans also suspended in mid-air.
Some of them looked normal, simply asleep, but others had already begun to transform into spiders, their limbs losing their original shape and changing into sharp spider legs.
Chapter 383 The Power of the Snow-Dipped Plunger
A strong stench filled the air, making Xia Yan's disgust even stronger.
Then, the wooden house, suspended in mid-air by spider silk, shook violently, as if something inside was moving.
