The black-veiled young girl followed along and, with one glance, saw Jiang Chen standing at the stairway entrance.
The battle had already begun, yet Jiang Chen was still standing there.
"Could it be that he's actually letting his woman go fight that Soul Emperor?" the girl thought to herself, her impression of Jiang Chen plummeting instantly.
He had been talking about helping his woman seize a house, yet now he was standing in the corner watching the fight.
She walked up the stairs and stood beside Jiang Chen, looking toward the battlefield.
The living room space was very large, and Hu Liena was already locked in fierce combat with that woman.
The woman was dressed very scantily, and since she had just been engaged in that kind of activity, she hadn't had time to tidy up. During the battle, her body swayed with intoxicating allure.
However, Jiang Chen's gaze did not linger on her; instead, he was focused on Hu Liena's condition.
The black-clothed girl was very surprised by Hu Liena's combat strength. Only now did she realize that Hu Liena was actually a Soul King-level powerhouse.
Moreover, the deadly poison from that female Soul Emperor, which terrified countless people, had no effect whatsoever when it landed on Hu Liena.
In the midst of the fight, Hu Liena gradually integrated the combat techniques she had learned over the past month, her long sword becoming increasingly cunning and ruthless. She had already left quite a few bloody marks on the Soul Emperor woman's body.
Hu Liena's sword posture was extremely graceful; even the watching black-clothed girl felt her eyes brighten at the sight.
"Why aren't you helping her?" the black-clothed girl frowned and asked.
Jiang Chen replied, "Didn't you see she's getting stronger? She can handle it."
Just as he spoke, Hu Liena's long sword flicked upward. The woman couldn't dodge in time, and a large chunk of soft flesh was sliced off.
"Ah, I'm going to kill you!" The woman let out a shrill scream, her face twisting. Her originally beautiful features instantly became incomparably hideous.
In an instant, a large amount of black gas surged from her body. This black gas carried deadly poison, causing Hu Liena to instinctively retreat a step.
As the black gas poured out, an astonishing change occurred to the woman's body.
Her two round and straight legs vanished. Below her abdomen was now a huge oval sphere, gray-black in color.
The sphere was covered in fur, along with densely packed fist-sized purple spots.
On both sides of the sphere were eight legs, each as thick as an adult's arm and fully two meters long.
Her two arms had transformed into black, straight, long spears, still covered in fur, with extremely sharp tips.
Her entire face had turned purple, and with that twisted expression, she looked exceptionally terrifying and frightening.
"I, Black Widow, have never suffered such humiliation. I want you to wish you were dead!"
The woman's voice was as sharp as a vengeful ghost, her eyes filled with extreme venom as she glared at Hu Liena. The two long spears in her hands stabbed downward from above toward Hu Liena.
At this moment, her height had exceeded three meters, making it difficult for Hu Liena to attack her upper body.
Hu Liena struggled to block the attacks from the two long spears and swung her sword at one of the opponent's legs.
However, those spider legs were extremely tough. Even with a full-force strike, her sword only cut in a little bit.
Jiang Chen still did not intervene. Fighting an opponent like this was a precious experience for Hu Liena.
With a ripping sound, the woman's long spear tore through the clothing on Hu Liena's chest, nearly injuring her body.
Hu Liena's heart jolted, and she involuntarily retreated several steps.
At that moment, the woman lifted her massive oval abdomen. Below the abdomen was a finger-length slit, now aimed directly at Hu Liena.
Puff! A mass of milky-white spider silk shot out, spreading into a web in midair and enveloping Hu Liena.
This was not a soul skill, merely an innate ability of her spider martial soul. Aside from the deadly poison on her body, this was her strongest method.
The spider silk possessed extreme stickiness and toughness. Once Hu Liena was wrapped up, she would be at the woman's mercy.
The spider silk shot out at extreme speed, and it was launched right when Hu Liena was panicked and retreating, catching her somewhat off guard.
Just when Hu Liena thought she was about to be enveloped by the web, a figure moved even faster than the spider web, grabbing her and pulling her aside.
Jiang Chen pulled Hu Liena back to the stairway entrance.
Hu Liena was still somewhat shaken, her chest heaving dramatically. Her clothing had been torn open earlier, momentarily distracting Jiang Chen.
Jiang Chen shook his head, refocused, took a few steps forward, and looked at the spider woman.
After observing for a while, he had already understood this woman's characteristics.
Her strength wasn't particularly great; she mainly relied on deadly poison and this web attack, followed by the two spear-like arms.
Jiang Chen and Hu Liena were precisely unafraid of poison. The web was extremely lethal to slow people, but to Jiang Chen, it was practically nothing.
"You two are both going to die today!" The woman's sharp voice rang out. Her eight legs moved in unison, charging toward Jiang Chen at extreme speed.
Jiang Chen did not release his martial soul, nor did he even manifest his zombie body. With a single step, he darted to the woman's side.
The woman was startled. In her spider form, her sides and back were her attack blind spots.
She tried to turn around, but in merely an instant, she felt Jiang Chen land on the oval sphere behind her.
The woman panicked completely. Jiang Chen was now on her back, standing on that oval sphere; her hands couldn't reach him at all.
A dagger appeared in Jiang Chen's hand. Just as he was about to strike, beneath his feet, the densely packed fist-sized purple spots on the oval sphere began to wriggle.
In an instant, large amounts of purple poisonous mist sprayed out from those purple spots.
This purple poisonous gas was not only terrifyingly toxic but also highly corrosive. Jiang Chen's clothes instantly developed many large holes.
After discovering that the poisonous gas posed no threat to him, Jiang Chen thrust the dagger forward, piercing through the woman's back and out through her chest.
A wretched, blood-curdling scream rang out. The woman's body convulsed wildly. Jiang Chen pulled out the dagger, leaped into the air, tapped his feet several times midair, and landed in front of Hu Liena.
"Did I do well?" Jiang Chen smiled.
"Not bad, though you look a bit disheveled." Hu Liena teased, glancing at the many holes in Jiang Chen's clothes.
Suddenly, she remembered there was still the black-clothed girl nearby and quickly pulled Jiang Chen to the side.
She absolutely would not let this black-clothed girl, who clearly had improper thoughts toward Jiang Chen, take any advantage, even just with her eyes!
At this moment, the black-clothed girl's heart was filled with incomparable shock. This young couple had actually taken down this powerful Soul Emperor.
She had already been very shocked by Hu Liena's combat strength earlier, and now she was even more astonished by Jiang Chen's power.
Clearly, his soul power fluctuations weren't strong, so how could his strength be so formidable?
She had seen the power of that female Soul Emperor's purple poisonous mist before—even Soul Emperors of the same level would perish if caught off guard by it.
Yet Jiang Chen, aside from some damage to his clothes, was completely unharmed.
Jiang Chen's speed filled the girl with questions. He hadn't even released his martial soul—how could he be so fast?
She had too many questions in her heart and wanted to ask, but when she opened her mouth, no words came out.
She gave a bitter smile. How could these two possibly tell her about their strength?
