Laying down on her bed was a woman who was renowned as the black widow for her actions in the Arena and Slaughter City, her mansion became a no man's land, and her opponents end up defeated and captured in a cocoon, it was the last time they were seen, their fate remaining a mystery.

Yue Li was resting from her last simulation, feeling her cultivation go deeper even though she couldn't breakthrough.

' It has been a year since I came to Slaughter City, I finally completed everything I wanted, I now have a new upgrade sets of self-made soul skills, varying drom defense, offense, control, movement, insight. Even the duel cultivation technique was deduced. ' Mused Yue Li to herself.

' Matter of fact, the only thing we need is time, and finding a suitable 85 000 years old moon attribute spirit beast ' Responded the dark arachne. ' A pity though we couldn't try the dual technique. '

' It's not like you can find someone who will willingly knell down to fuck. ' While mentally musings, she sensed a person coming in her territory knocking on her door before standing straight.

' How rare, someone came through the front door, that's a first. ' Remarqued the dark arachne with a hint of sarcasm on her voice. ' To make even hilarious, I'm peaking up the feeling of fear, despair, and resolve with hope. '

' Their is someone who feels hope from standing in front of my door. '

Yue Li, curious, decided to open the door and see the newcomer. Manipulating her threads, she swiftly opened the door while going down to see her guest.

Meanwhile Lin Ya, the woman infront of the black widow house was deeply afraid, she didn't want to come here but was forced in circumstances because of her beauty.

' The first kill was a small noble from the heaven Dou empire out of self-defense, but it quickly spiraled down hill till I became wanted and escaped toward Slaughter City, with my mere strength of level 45 at the age of 24, the one who wanted me dead was a soul king. I couldn't do much even if I'm a small genius so I run and planned to stay in the outer area, but then again my beauty brought me troubles even if I tried to hide it, so I run to the inner city, my goal is the rumored black widow. As long as she could take me under her wing, I can have her protection, I only hope that she is the soul power Master from spirit hall. '

Lin Ya walked inside the mansion begging to see the Master in the hallway yet it was empty.

Soon, she heard the sound of steps going down, looking at the direction of the steps, she found the Master, she was of mesmerizing beauty, better than all she had seen, her size dwerfed her and her eyes pierced through her, she felt naked under her dark silver eyes, with no secrets to hide.

As Yue Li made her way downstairs, she was met a little beauty, she a smaller the her but her feelings where as clear as the expression in her face.

' Well, seems like you can now try dual cultivation. ' Mused the arachne.

" Who are you, and what do you want. " Asked Yue Li with authority in her voice.

" M-My name is Lin Ya, I came here to demands your protection. All I can offer is by product of my martial soul, poisonous green spider, in the fool moon, it can make a healing nectar for words under the soul king's level. "

' That was how I'm able to survive all their pursuits, if not for the good mutation that my martial soul experienced, I don't believe I could live till this day much more escape. '

Lin Ya's heart pounded with trepidation as she stood before Yue Li, her eyes fixed on the mesmerizing beauty that seemed to command the entire room. The weight of desperation and fear clung to her words as she explained her tumultuous journey, recounting a tale of self-defense turned fugitive survival.

The fear in Lin Ya's eyes mirrored the shadows of her past, the echoes of a life on the run. Yet, within that fear, there lingered a glimmer of hope, a flicker of resolve that sought refuge under Yue Li's protection. As she spoke of her martial prowess, a poisonous green spider, there was a plea in her voice, a silent request for sanctuary.

Yue Li, the dark arachne, observed the smaller woman with a hint of amusement, her silver eyes cutting through the vulnerability exposed in Lin Ya's confession. The air thickened with anticipation as Lin Ya awaited a response, her fate hanging in the balance.

In the silent pause that followed, the atmosphere resonated with uncertainty, a delicate dance between a vulnerable soul seeking refuge and a formidable arachne deciding the fate that lay before her.
