Chapter 161 - Chapter 161: Yu Xiaogang's Critical Injury

He opened his eyes frantically. The Man Faced Demon Spider in front of him had already been flung ten meters away. Six of its eight legs were broken. Its body was horribly mutilated, and after struggling only a couple of times, it finally died completely. Standing over it was a slender figure.

Tang San was stunned for a moment before he finally reacted.

"Dean!" he cried.

The person who had arrived was Flender.

Thump!

Realizing what had happened, Tang San immediately knelt down on both knees before Flender. Tears streamed down his face as he explained, "Dean, Grandmaster was injured in a critical area by the Man Faced Demon Spider. Please, quickly save him!"

Flender frowned at Tang San's words. He had naturally seen Yu Xiaogang groaning in pain on the ground. But what did Tang San mean by a "critical area"? Could it be...?

Just then, Flender noticed that Yu Xiaogang's face had already started to turn purple. This was a clear symptom of severe poisoning. His hands were tightly gripping the sensitive area between his legs. Flender immediately understood the implication of Tang San's words. Was it possible that Yu Xiaogang was injured in that specific area by the Man Faced Demon Spider?

The Man Faced Demon Spider's venom was notoriously potent. Even a small amount of that poison would render that area useless. Considering the vulnerability of that critical area, Yu Xiaogang was probably beyond saving.

Thinking this, Flender didn't dare delay another second. He immediately pulled out a dagger and cut open Yu Xiaogang's clothes.

Once the clothes were open, he clearly saw that the critical area was already completely purplish-black. He was instantly shocked. In this state, it was basically impossible to save that part of the body. However, Yu Xiaogang's life could still be saved. This would involve surgically removing the deeply poisoned critical area, then expelling all the remaining toxins that had entered his body. Although this method would severely weaken a person, it was still better than losing his life.

Flender hesitated for a moment, then spoke softly, "Tang San, your Grandmaster's life is hanging by a thread , and he needs your help now."

Hearing the voice, Tang San immediately crawled over. "Dean, if there's anything you need help with, just command me! As long as I can do it, I will!"

Flender gently shook his head. "No, no, no, this matter isn't about you helping me; it's about me helping you. You've been Grandmaster's disciple for so many years. A teacher for a day is a father for life. I can see that the two of you have a deep father-son bond. Therefore, such an important matter for Grandmaster can only be completed by you personally."

With that, Flender directly handed the dagger in his hand to Tang San. Then, he immediately stepped back two paces.

Yu Xiaogang's condition was instantly exposed before Tang San's eyes. He was startled, his face filled with horror. Had Grandmaster's situation really gotten this bad?

After a moment of shock, Tang San also understood Flender's reasoning. Flender naturally didn't want to be the one to do such a drastic thing to Yu Xiaogang. Although his goal was to save Yu Xiaogang's life, when it came time to settle old scores later, given Yu Xiaogang's temperament, he would certainly not let Flender off the hook. Therefore, Flender came up with this solution. By letting Tang San do it, the problem was instantly solved.

"Tang San, the Man Faced Demon Spider's venom is spreading quickly. If you don't act now, you might miss the last chance."

Tang San was now sweating profusely. Flender's reminder reached his ears.

Gulp!

He swallowed, trying to calm himself down. Tang San never imagined that this trip to Sunset Forest would result in Grandmaster losing his ability to have descendants. In the future, Yu Xiaogang probably wouldn't even be considered a man anymore.

I myself can still be considered half of one, after all, I still have one, Tang San thought. Once I choose to act, Yu Xiaogang will be left with none at all. In that case, he couldn't be considered a man at all.

"Grandmaster, you have no children, so from today onwards, I, Tang San, am your son !" he roared. Then, he tightly gripped the dagger. He fiercely stabbed into the poisoned area.

Pfft!

With a swift motion, the poisoned area was directly cut off by him. Purplish-black blood gushed out. Tang San was momentarily flustered and didn't know what to do.

Just then, Flender walked up from behind. He placed his hand on Yu Xiaogang's pulse, and then his pure Spirit Power surged into the injured man's body. The Spirit Power of a seventy-eighth-level Spirit Saint roamed freely within Yu Xiaogang, a mere Spirit Grand Master. In just a few tens of seconds, all the residual toxins in his body were forced out.

However, along with the toxins, a lot of blood also flowed out. At this moment, Yu Xiaogang's face was no longer purplish-black, but due to excessive blood loss, his complexion was very pale.

Flender quickly took out medicine to stop the bleeding and bandaged Yu Xiaogang. He even took out one of his own precious pills and placed it in the latter's mouth.

After a quarter of an hour, he finally breathed a sigh of relief. Although Yu Xiaogang was still unconscious, his life was saved. But his career as a man in this life could be considered to have ended here.

Flender, having strong psychological endurance, was able to keep himself calm. But Tang San couldn't. He had never witnessed such a horrifying scene before. He had personally ended Yu Xiaogang's ability to procreate. Tang San had already been vomiting non-stop beside him. Although he was much better now, he was already physically weak. It could now be said that things were going from bad to worse. He couldn't imagine how he should explain things to Grandmaster when he finally woke up. Such a result, no matter how perfect and reasonable the explanation, was unacceptable for a man.

"The Spirit Rings of these two Man Faced Demon Spiders have appeared ; whether you want to absorb that Spirit Ring is up to you," Flender's faint voice came.

Tang San was slightly stunned. His physical condition at this time was too poor. The cultivation of the first Man Faced Demon Spider probably exceeded two thousand years. He directly chose to give up on that one. Instead, he chose the second, smaller Man Faced Demon Spider. He couldn't precisely determine the exact cultivation of this Spirit Beast, but he could confirm that it definitely exceeded a thousand years. However, it was only slightly over the thousand-year mark.

There were many different types of Spirit Beast Spirit Rings. The thousand-year Phoenix-Tailed Crested Serpent that Oscar had absorbed before belonged to a relatively gentle type of Spirit Beast. Absorbing its Spirit Ring was naturally not difficult.

But this Man Faced Demon Spider in front of him was different. It was definitely the most evil and violent existence among Spirit Beasts. Relatively speaking, although its Spirit Ring could provide a greater amplification effect, the process of absorbing it was also much more dangerous. This was because the Spirit Master absorbing it had to withstand the impact of this violent energy. If their body or will couldn't hold on, it was very likely to cause a fatal backlash.

Tang San looked at the unconscious Yu Xiaogang, and his heart finally gradually calmed down.

"Successfully absorbing the Spirit Ring can also be considered a small repayment to Grandmaster."
