Chapter: 3075

Just then, this special bug had already opened its dark mouth and thrust its head into Xuan Fengnian's brain, devouring it with relish.

Xuan Fengnian immediately died from extreme pain.

His skin began to turn black and blue at a speed visible to the naked eye.

At the same time, his seven orifices suddenly erupted in fresh blood.

His corpse knelt still on the spot, with an expression of utmost sorrow, as if he were kneeling to apologize for the innocent person's death that was in his hands.

Lei Chen saw him already dead, and sneered coldly, saying, "Such evil deeds will surely reap what they have sown!"

Just then, Ma Chengxing humbly said, "Young master Lei, since you can control that bug, you should definitely tame it, as it will certainly be useful in the future."

Lei Chen sneered coldly, "What use would I have for this bug that feeds on people's brains?"

Ma Chengxing hurriedly said, "Young Master Lei doesn't know this, but this bug is a treasured item that Mr. Xuanyuan has nurtured for at least 20-30 years. This thing can already do whatever it wants if it's alive, and I think it's an accomplishment that Mr. Xuanyuan has cultivated over half his life!"

Lei Chen sneered coldly, "If I were to leave this ghostly thing behind, would I also have to feed it on people's brains?"

Ma Chengxing was taken aback for a moment, hesitated for a while before opening his mouth and saying, "I just feel that killing this bug is indeed somewhat regrettable......"

Lei Chen said disdainfully, "I'm still far from needing to rely on something like this to get by!"

As he spoke, he grasped the Lightning Commandment in his hand and shouted loudly, "Thunder comes!"

Immediately after, another bolt of lightning descended, striking Mr. Xuanyuan's heavenly canopy.

In an instant, Mr. Xuanyuan, along with his true bug, was reduced to a pile of dust!

A gust of wind blew over, and the dust transformed by Mr. Xuanyuan instantly turned gray and dispersed in mid-air.

Ma Chengxing stared at this scene with his mouth agape, sighing inwardly, "Today, I've witnessed a miracle...... This Young Master Lei is indeed someone with great divine power! That's why he can make Li Qinghua, who's only 20 years old, look like a 30-year-old! With the power to summon lightning, it's as if time has reversed itself."

Lei Chen looked at Ma Chengxing and said calmly, "You've helped me catch Mr. Xuanyuan, but you're too cunning and overly self-serving. Plus, you're helping my enemy come to Jinling to find out where I am. Although you've achieved something, it's not enough to make up for all the mistakes you've made, so from now on, I'll have you and Ma Ke kept under close surveillance in Jinling until I settle accounts with Su Chengming, then I'll release you both."

Ma Chengxing's expression was very bitter, but he knew in his heart that asking Lei Chen for mercy or showing loyalty to him was futile. It was because Lei Chen had already weighed his options and decided not to change his mind based on someone else's pleas or concessions.

The recent example of Xuanyuan is the best proof.

So, the current best choice is to obediently listen to Lei Chen and follow his instructions.

Although being under house arrest is painful, it at least allows me to preserve my life.

I will cooperate with Lei Chen's words in the future, perhaps there may be an opportunity to redeem myself.

With this thought, he bowed his head respectfully and said: "Young Master Lei's decision is absolute, I have no objection. Everything is up to Young Master Lei's discretion......"

Lei Chen nodded satisfactorily and opened his mouth, saying: "Since it's like that, let's go back with me then." JrNovels.com
