Chapter 4444: Be prepared

"The soul-eating demonic insect is so powerful. If I could subdue it and use it against the enemy, wouldn't it be even more powerful than the soul-stealing sword?"

Chen Xiao suddenly had a whim and thought.

When the shadow man used the Soul-Eating Demonic Insect to attack just now, he relied on a green wood gourd. Obviously, this Soul-eating Demonic Insect could be controlled.

He had also heard a lot of rumors about Chong Xiu.

Shiro tilted his little head, thought for a moment, nodded and said: "That's true, but don't think about this one. You saw it just now, that person was fed by essence and blood. The mark of control has long been left in the body. Unless you kill it, you cannot control this insect. Even in the Demon Realm, insect masters who can control soul-eating insects are rare. They are very powerful. Just now The shadow man is obviously trying to make trouble, not to control insects."

Chen Xiao looked stunned, "So that's it, there are so many ways."

"It's natural. The Soul-Eating Insect is extremely powerful. It can't be tamed easily. If you are not careful, it will be backlashed. I don't know how many demons have died in the mouth of the Soul-Eating Insect."

Hero said.

After hearing this, Chen Xiao gave up the idea of ​​controlling insects, which was a pity.

"Zhizhi."

But at this moment, the Soul-Eating Insect in the Thunder Bird Cage went crazy and hit the bird cage crazily, trying to get out. Even though it was bruised and bruised by lightning, it still kept hitting like crazy.

Chen Xiao was startled and asked: "Siro, what's going on?"

"It's hungry." Hero said.

"Are you hungry?" Chen Xiao's eyes were full of doubts.

Hiro nodded and said: "Yes, it is hungry. This insect feeds on essence and blood. Just now, in order to drive it, the shadow man fed it a drop of his own essence and blood. He must have planned to use the soul-eating insect. After killing you, I then devoured your essence and blood to feed it, but you succeeded in counterattacking. Now it is hungry, and the hungrier the Soul-eating Insect becomes, the crazier it becomes."

"What should we do now?" Chen Xiao asked.

Hiro spread his hands and said, "What else can we do? Just destroy it. Do you still want to keep it?"

Chen Xiao glanced at the crazy insect that was bumping into it randomly, and felt a chill in his heart.

If this monster escapes, I don’t know how many monks will suffer, it makes me shudder just thinking about it.

"That's fine."

As soon as Chen Xiao exerted his strength, there was a flash of thunder, the thunder snake rolled, and soon the soul-eating insect in the cage was scorched and turned into a wisp of smoke.

Seeing this, he breathed a sigh of relief, "It's safe now."

"Um."

At this time, the third prince and others also hurried over.

"Your Excellency Chen Xiao, are you okay?" The third prince came closer and asked.

Chen Xiao came back to his senses and said calmly: "Nothing happened, it's just a pity that the shadow man escaped."

Hearing this, the third prince felt relieved and said: "It's good that you're okay. You were scared to death just now. If you were killed, I'm afraid we wouldn't be able to survive. Can we discuss this before you fake your death next time?"

"Discuss? Can this kind of thing be discussed?" Chen Xiao said with a smile.

The third prince agreed, "Of course, you can trust me now."

Chen Xiao was noncommittal. He could see that the third prince wanted to win over him and at least leave some good impressions.

For a highly respected third prince of the Unparalleled Divine Dynasty, this was a very natural thing.

But in Chen Xiao's view, there is no need to do this. The relationship between them is just a matter of interest.

Of course, he wouldn't say these words plainly.

So, he changed the topic and said: "The shadow man just now came from the Dark Temple. I am afraid that he is inextricably connected with the Black Sky Sect and Zhantian City."

"You mean, Li Zhan is related to the Dark Temple?" The third prince said in shock.

"yes."

"this……"

Not only the third prince, but also Ying San and others all changed their expressions after hearing this.

They certainly knew a thing or two about the rumors about the Dark Temple. It was terrifying for a mysterious force that existed in ancient times to make a comeback and regain control of the divine domain.

And you can tell just by the name, it’s not a good thing.

Soon, the third prince reacted, "Ying San, send someone to investigate immediately. We must find out the truth."

Ying San smiled bitterly in his heart, and the truth came to light? This is easier said than done, the Dark Temple is too mysterious, and there is no clue as to the background of the shadow man just now.

But he still responded, "Yes."

"Hmph, this must be Li Zhan's fault. I have to go find him and get an explanation." The third prince said, looking at Chen Xiao, asking for his opinion.

Chen Xiao shook his head and said: "It doesn't have to be like this. If you do this, it will only scare the enemy and make the other party more vigilant. It will be thankless."

"Li Zhan had evil intentions and directly sent a killer. How can we let him go?"

The third prince said angrily.

"Do you have evidence?" Chen Xiao asked.

"This..." The third prince was at a loss for words. There really was no evidence.

The shadow man just now was well disguised, inconspicuous, and had no clues about his identity. If he just relies on inferences and goes to Li Zhan for his theory, it will not be tenable at all.

The third prince was only so angry when he was angry.

"No."

"That's it. If there is no evidence, if you continue to question him and the other party denies it, what will you do?" Chen Xiao asked again.

The third prince was speechless, a little embarrassed for a moment, and the atmosphere was very dull.

Seeing this, Chen Xiao patted his shoulder, "That's enough. Since ancient times, the winner is the king and the loser is the bandit. Only those with the bigger fists can stand to the end. Even if I am Li Zhan now, I can't defeat him. Even if I know that he sent someone to assassinate him, what can I do? Besides, his target seems to be me, not you."

This sentence hits the nail on the head.

It is obvious that the black shadow assassin came to attack Chen Xiao, wanting to kill Chen Xiao, so as to warn the third prince not to mess around.

So the other party does not want the third prince to die, and does not want things to get too awkward, which is not good for anyone.

The third prince took a deep breath and recovered, saying: "Yes, he wanted to kill you to warn me, but unfortunately he failed and underestimated your strength."

Chen Xiao shook his head, "No, he almost succeeded. If it was not me who was here today, but another immortal realm strongman, he almost succeeded."

"What?"

The third prince was stunned, and he thought he had heard it wrong.

The shadow killer had been very cautious and had not revealed his true abilities. He wanted to use the Soul Devouring Demon Bug to kill Chen Xiao, but what he showed was only a clone of the Blood Demon's true body. His true body was hidden inside the clone, so he could counterattack successfully.

If an ordinary immortal realm expert was drilled into the soul sea by the Soul Devouring Bug and eaten by the soul, he would not be able to resist at all.

There is only one outcome, death.

"Be prepared, the opponent is much more terrible than you think."

Chen Xiao sighed.

"..." The third prince.
