Jujutsu: Eight Magical Skills At The Beginning, Admission Is A Special Level

Chapter 30: The Prettier the Woman, the Better at Deceiving

The Buddha-faced Golden Spider suffered a heavy blow from Lu Bei's attack, its ferocity unleashed as it moved its eight legs to chase Luo Ban. Green liquid dripped from its mouth, mixing with the swirling dust, causing the coverage of the poisonous mist to expand.

Zhu Bo continuously waved his fan, creating a strong wind to block the spread of the poisonous mist.

Lu Bei took out an antidote pill and swallowed it, stopping the continuous loss of health. He then brandished his sword and strode towards...

Glancing at the nearby exit, Lu Bei stopped in his tracks. On one side was the escape route, on the other was the raging monster. Choosing between the two was not a difficult problem.

Of course, he went back to fight the monster.

From She Xuan willingly putting herself in danger, to them being ambushed by the Buddha-faced Golden Spider while staying in the safe zone, to the difficulty of distinguishing reality from illusion in the illusion array, the truth was now clear.

They fell into the trap!

The last time She Xuan entered the tomb, it wasn't the illusion array that stopped her, but the Buddha-faced Golden Spider. Knowing that she couldn't defeat it, and unwilling to share the benefits of the Cave Mansion with other experts, she found Zhu Bo, who had similar strength, and sacrificed her allies to buy time.

It is also highly possible that there was no illusion array in the Cave Mansion to begin with. She Xuan had set everything up in advance, triggered the mechanism, and left, leaving the Buddha-faced Golden Spider to guard the Cave Mansion for them.

What Ji's mother said was right, the most poisonous thing is a woman's heart. The prettier the woman, the better she is at deceiving.

Except for Bai Jin.

Lu Bei didn't know the current situation outside or whether She Xuan had obtained the Demon Cultivator's relic, but one thing he was certain of was that She Xuan dared to dig a pit for the Zhu family and had no intention of letting Zhu Bo leave alive.

There are traps outside, appearing to be a way out but actually leading to a different kind of dead end.

This is unacceptable!

With this in mind, Lu Bei made a calculation. He took a deep breath of the poisonous gas and rushed towards the Buddha-faced Golden Spider.

"Don't panic, my brothers. I'll lend you a hand."

His blade struck down, disregarding the consumption of his cultivation, continuously using the 'Dark Tide' skill to increase critical hit rate. Although he didn't inflict much damage on the Buddha-faced Golden Spider, he managed to pull Luo Ban away from its poisonous mouth.

"Brother Lu, you came at the right time!"

The thug arrived by his side, immediately becoming spirited. In times of adversity, true feelings are revealed. Zhu Bo was moved and said, "I'm ashamed to admit that I just saw you at the entrance..."

"Brother Bo, you underestimated me. Let's temporarily put this grudge aside and settle it later." Lu Bei snorted coldly, instantly establishing himself as a loyal friend who would sacrifice himself for his brothers.

"Alright, it's a deal."

Zhu Bo nodded and waved his Law Treasure fan, creating a violent wind that pressed the Buddha-faced Golden Spider to the ground. Lu Bei and Luo Ban repeated their previous actions, each wielding a sword to strike, once again shattering one of the spider's eyes.

Seeing this, Lu Bei's spirits rose. He vaguely saw a red strip on top of the Buddha-faced Golden Spider's head shorten, and he swung his sword with even more force.

With one person controlling the field, two people launching a strong attack, and three people cooperating for the first time, their output was quite smooth. Especially Lu Bei and Luo Ban, the latter recognized Lu Bei's military swordsmanship and immediately adjusted his own sword technique to assist Lu Bei. Not only did he save his own cultivation and stamina, but he also greatly increased their attack damage.

After a moment, all eight eyes of the Buddha-faced Golden Spider were shattered, its head was pockmarked, and green fluid stained the dust and gravel, making it impossible to discern its specific shape.

Strike while he's weak, take his life.

Lu Bei decisively followed up, taking advantage of Luo Ban's distraction to attract attention, and threw another flying knife.

This time, he didn't aim for the mouth, but instead hit the pockmarked head of the Buddha-faced Golden Spider, causing it to explode with splattering fluid, taking away half of its life.

"It's still not dead?"

"What a tenacious vitality..."

As they watched the Buddha-faced Golden Spider rolling in the green poisonous mist, the three of them gasped for breath and gathered together, exchanging glances.

Zhu Bo's face was pale. The consumption of his Foundation Building Stage cultivation and continuous activation of Law Treasures was extremely severe. He took out several bottles of pills and threw them into his mouth.

Luo Ban, the main attacker, had blood at the corners of his mouth. Without the support of his well-equipped big cousin, his defense was far inferior to Lu Bei. He had been swept away twice by the Buddha-faced Golden Spider and relied solely on his Body Refining technique to withstand the injuries. He was the most seriously injured among the three.

Lu Bei was not in a good state either. He had the highest overall output, but his cultivation points had dropped to the point where the "Backtrack" skill was about to be triggered, and his health had also rapidly decreased due to fatigue.

"What should we do? Should we continue to kill it?"

"The situation outside is unclear for now. We should prioritize preserving our strength. Anyway, it's half-dead and blind, unable to see us. Let's take this opportunity to leave."

Zhu Bo made the decision, and the three of them hurriedly walked towards the exit. Before entering the door, Luo Ban raised his hand to stop Zhu Bo and threw a flying knife to confirm that there were no ambushes. Only then did he take the lead with his long knife in hand.

Bang!

A figure flew out.

It was Luo Ban, moving at a fast speed, leaving behind afterimages.

Lu Bei had been on guard early on and quickly retreated on his tiptoes. However, it was of no use. He was fast, but the opponent was faster. A fist the size of a sand pot rapidly enlarged in front of him. He only had time to raise his knife to block, but was still sent flying by the surging force.

Zhu Bo followed closely behind. Just as Lu Bei had laid down, Zhu Bo came crashing straight towards him. Seeing the situation was not good, Lu Bei flipped over to dodge, but Luo Ban, who was lying beneath him, suffered two consecutive blows.

[You have been attacked. After deducting defense, your health points -80]

[You have been poisoned. After judgment, your health points -20 per second, lasting for 30 seconds]

It was not the poisonous mist of the Buddha-faced Golden Spider, but a more potent poison.

When did I get poisoned?

Lu Bei took out an antidote pill and swallowed it, but it was unable to neutralize the special toxin. He thought for a moment and accepted the default of losing 20 health points per second.

"Hehehe..."

A burly man walked in, cracking his fists. He was the one who tore apart the zombies with his bare hands earlier. He had an astonishing physique and great strength, just like She Xuan, a Monster Cultivator.

"Zhu Commander, you have great skills. You've beaten this fierce beast into submission," She Xuan led the team in and with the absence of the two cannon fodder, Feilong and Pangu, there were still five members left in the seven-person squad.

As hostages in the hostage exchange, the Liu brothers were currently tightly bound, their faces swollen and bruised.

"And this little brother here, quite skilled. Sister almost fell for your naive romanticism," She Xuan smiled and looked at Lu Bei, who was lying on the ground gasping for breath. In response to her words, he lifted his shoulder slightly.

"Sister She is the skilled one. I, Zhu Bo, am no match for her. To kill or to release, you decide!" Zhu Bo, poisoned and unaffected by the antidote, was dizzy and unable to speak clearly.

He knew that the enemy was waiting for them to exhaust themselves. Their own injured were injured, and those captured were captured. There was absolutely no chance of winning by force.

But he was not afraid. His surname was Zhu, and seeing that She Xuan didn't dare to kill the Liu brothers, he knew there was room for negotiation.

Zhu Bo made a fierce statement in his heart, vowing to find someone to put the demon woman in all sorts of positions and then chop her up for snake soup.

"Commander Zhu, don't misunderstand. I calculated against you out of helplessness," She Xuan calmly said. "Your family has a large business and your people are spread throughout Wu Zhou. If I didn't have the advantage, how could I make you willingly give up benefits?"

I knew it!

Zhu Bo felt relieved and didn't give She Xuan a good expression. "Enough with the nonsense. I'm poisoned by your snake venom, so bring out the antidote."

"Of course."

"And also, release my two brothers."

"Commander Zhu, you're too greedy!"

She Xuan shook her head, but she agreed to Zhu Bo's request. She handed a bottle of antidote to Liu Meng and pushed the Liu brothers out with a wave of her hand.

The Liu brothers stumbled and knelt in front of Zhu Bo with tears streaming down their faces. Luo Ban forced himself to stand up straight and cut the ropes to free the two.

"Big brother, that woman..."

"The antidote," Zhu Bo interrupted with a grim expression.

The Liu brothers nodded repeatedly and took out a small bottle from their pockets, pouring out three pills and giving one to each of the three.

"Gulp!"

Luo Ban swallowed one pill, his complexion slightly improving. He motioned for the Liu brothers to step back and stood in front of Zhu Bo, protecting him with his sword.

"Brother Lu, are you alright?"

Zhu Bo took the antidote and saw that Lu Bei was still lying motionless, furrowing his brows.

Just then, a severe pain surged from his abdomen. Zhu Bo's face changed drastically, and when he looked at Luo Ban standing in front of him, he couldn't help but kneel down in pain.

Puchi! x2

Two cold lights pierced through, and Zhu Bo and Luo Ban froze in place, unable to believe that they had been betrayed by their teammate.

The Liu brothers took advantage of the opportunity and quickly moved away from the scene, standing behind She Xuan without daring to make eye contact with Zhu Bo.

"Why?"

Zhu Bo said bitterly, coughing up a mouthful of blood, almost being choked to death.

"People go up, water goes down. Where does 'why' come from?" She Xuan smiled and explained, "I met the Liu brothers in the Grand Tomb District. They thought they could profit more by following me than by following you, so they made the rational choice to abandon the darkness and embrace the light. It's as simple as that."

The Liu brothers lowered their heads deeply, accepting the fact of their betrayal without explanation.

Don't ask why either. The answer is that she gave them too much.

"Sister She, you're really good at calculating, every step connected. I didn't understand..."

Glancing at Luo Ban lying on the ground and Lu Bei continuously pounding his chest and coughing up blood, Zhu Bo asked his doubts, "If I die, someone will eventually trace it back to you. What benefit does that bring you?"

"The world is vast. Just leave Wu Zhou," She Xuan looked at Zhu Bo with pity. "To be honest, I don't want to have an endless fight with Commander Zhu, but unfortunately, I have a business that requires the blood of the Zhu Clan. After thinking it through, I can only use you as a sacrifice today."

"You want to rob the ancestral tomb of my Zhu Clan?"

"Hehe, it's better for a dying person like Commander Zhu to not know so much, so that even if you die, you won't be able to swallow this anger." She Xuan coldly waved her hand, and a person walked out from behind her, unsheathing a sharp blade to draw blood from Zhu Bo.

At this moment...

"I'm finally... about to die..."

Lu Bei threw away the antidote in his hand, coughed up blood, and sat up. His eyes emitted a fierce light, pulling everyone in front of him into his range of capture.
