The Whale in the Mountains
Chapter 137 Swallowed
At that moment, the infant fiend suddenly opened its eyelids, revealing a pair of blood-red eyes!
With almost no reaction time, the infant fiend jumped up and pounced on Lin Jie.
Lin Jie screamed in terror, her brain short-circuiting. She could only scream, completely unaware of how to dodge.
Even if she could dodge, she wouldn't have been able to.
The infant fiend's speed was simply too fast.
Even Chen Xiao was half a beat slower.
By the time Chen Xiao reacted, the infant fiend had already pounced on Lin Jie.
It hung on Lin Jie's body, its posture like an infant being held by its mother.
Lin Jie's face was drained of all color, she didn't dare to move, didn't dare to look.
Her brain was short-circuited, and she didn't know what to do.
The infant fiend opened its dark mouth, revealing a mouthful of fine, sharp fangs, and bit down on Lin Jie's chest!
*Crack!*
A fierce bite, but unfortunately, it bit nothing.
Because at the last moment, Chen Xiao finally arrived and lifted the infant fiend off Lin Jie.
Lin Jie couldn't hold on any longer and sat down on the ground with a thud, gasping for breath.
As for the infant fiend, feeling itself being held by Chen Xiao, it was extremely angry.
It screamed sharply and struggled desperately.
Its cries were horrifying, sharp and piercing, as if directly impacting a person's heart.
Fortunately, this was Tian Hai Yi Pin; the villas were spaced far apart, and Villa No. 1 was especially empty.
Otherwise, if these cries were heard by other residents, it wouldn't be long before all the residents here moved out.
This little thing was surprisingly strong, and Chen Xiao faintly felt like he couldn't hold on.
This made Chen Xiao angry: "Little thing, you better not struggle anymore, or I'll beat you until your soul is scattered!"
However, this little thing seemed to not understand Chen Xiao's words at all.
Come to think of it, it was completely formed from resentment, without a trace of humanity, so naturally it couldn't understand human speech.
In this regard, it was even inferior to the stone spirit.
Although the stone spirit was simple and didn't seem to have very high intelligence, at least it could understand human speech and communicate.
But this infant fiend was completely unable to communicate.
Chen Xiao felt like he was holding a mad dog in his hand.
The infant fiend lived up to expectations and bit Chen Xiao's wrist!
"Ouch, damn it!"
Chen Xiao felt the pain and threw the infant fiend away.
A cloud of black poisonous mist rose from the area where his wrist was bitten, looking very serious.
Chen Xiao quickly mobilized his spiritual energy to dispel the black mist, preventing the poison from entering his body!
This time, Chen Xiao was truly enraged and began to curse.
"Damn it, you little beast, I'll show you what's what. You don't know who's in charge!"
Before he finished speaking, he cast a lightning spell.
Although the infant fiend was very fast, it couldn't withstand the large range of Chen Xiao's lightning spell, and it couldn't escape.
Several bolts of lightning struck the infant fiend, causing it to scream and howl!
Its large red eyes were filled with anger, pointing directly at Chen Xiao!
Even someone as arrogant as Chen Xiao couldn't help but feel a chill.
An infant fiend was already this powerful. If it were to transform into a flying fiend, how terrifying would it be?
"I was originally planning to save you and return you to your mother's embrace, but now it seems that's no longer necessary!"
"You little bastard, prepare to accept your fate of having your soul scattered!"
Although the infant fiend's fate was very difficult, Chen Xiao didn't want to cause a catastrophe because of his moment of benevolence!
Two balls of crimson flame appeared in his eyes, burning brightly outward from his sockets.
"Let you return to dust, return to earth!"
Crimson flames surged out, locking onto the infant fiend.
Even in the face of the burning flames, the infant fiend's face did not show the slightest fear.
Born in resentment, it didn't know what fear was.
Moreover, its body had already undergone forty-nine days of smoking and burning, so it seemed to be accustomed to being burned by flames again.
It even pounced out of the flames, heading straight for Chen Xiao, with a world-destroying killing intent!
Chen Xiao naturally wouldn't panic. He hadn't used all of his strength yet, and he still had many trump cards.
However, he didn't need to use them.
Because when the infant fiend rushed in front of him, it suddenly disappeared.
That's right, it disappeared into thin air, without a trace.
Chen Xiao couldn't understand it, until he discovered that the yin-yang jade on his chest seemed to be covered with a faint layer of black mist.
"Could it be that the infant fiend was swallowed by this yin-yang jade?"
Chen Xiao had a bold idea.
He knew that this yin-yang jade was a psychic treasure with its own consciousness.
So it wasn't particularly strange for it to swallow the infant fiend.
But Lin Jie and Li Ziqing didn't understand what was going on, and immediately began to ask questions.
"Chen Xiao, what's going on? Why did that little ghost suddenly disappear?"
"Did you subdue it? Or did it hide?"
Faced with the two's questions, Chen Xiao gave a definite answer: "Don't worry, the infant fiend has been subdued by me, and there won't be any more trouble."
Chen Xiao told a small lie, but the result was the same: there would be no more haunting in Tian Hai Yi Pin.
Lin Jie breathed a sigh of relief: "Thank goodness, this matter is finally over."
It seemed like she was talking about this one thing, but also about everything.
But was it really over? At least her assistant, Xiao Ru, was still waiting for her to deal with.
Then Chen Xiao asked Lin Jie to find a place to bury the bones, and Lin Jie agreed immediately.
The dead are the greatest. Although these bones had caused Lin Jie to lose billions, she couldn't be blamed for it.
The people who wanted to harm her were Richard, and perhaps that Master Xuan Qingzi.
However, the two had already died in that deep mountain forest, and they had received their due punishment.
But little did they know that Richard and Xuan Qingzi were just pawns. The real mastermind behind the scenes had not yet appeared.
At this moment, under a certain bridge, an old beggar wearing a tattered Taoist robe suddenly woke up from his meditation.
He said in a low, angry voice: "Who is so bold as to destroy my infant fiend?"
Then he did some calculations and his eyes showed surprise: "Huh? The infant fiend clearly didn't have its soul scattered, but why has my connection with it been severed? Who is ruining my plans?"
He did some calculations again, and his eyes flashed fiercely: "So it's you again, you brat. No matter who you are, our feud is completely settled!"
