Chapter 48: Parasite

Mo Chenxuan and Qin Wu subtly looked at each other.

“It’s time.” Qin Wu said, and Lin Rongrong couldn’t help but be excited.

“Pretend to be asleep.”

Soon after, four people slumped on the table, knocking over knocking over plates and water glasses.

After ten minutes of knowing, the door finally opened, and Chen Da walked in.

“As expected! They couldn’t resist.” The man said in an excited voice.

At the same time, he looked around, his gaze lingering on the empty plates and water glasses.

“This is the first time that someone has been able to finish the food before falling asleep. Even that army guy couldn’t do it.”

The more Chen Da talked, the more excited he became.

“These four must be very powerful superpowers.” He said, excitedly walking towards the table.

A moment later, he opened his mouth, and cracking sounds echoed in the room.

Using his spiritual power, Mo Chenxuan observed the situation and couldn’t help but be surprised.

Unexpectedly, the chief’s mouth had somehow become a gaping cavern.

The cavern was about twenty centimetres wide and seemed to lead to a bottomless abyss.

As Mo Chenxuan watched, Chen Da stuffed his arm into his mouth and reached inside to grab something.

A moment later, he retrieved his arm, and four black stones appeared on the palm of his right hand.

The stones were the size of toy marbles.

However, unlike marbles, the stones had a dull surface and exuded a sinister aura.

’What are those?’ Mo Chenxuan unconsciously frowned.

He recalled everything he knew from his previous life, but nothing came to mind.

’Wu’er and I went to the capital using another route in our previous life, However, Chenjia village is too peculiar to have remained hidden. Could it be that the strange Chenjia didn’t exist in our previous life?’ He wondered but didn’t have time to dwell on the matter.

After retrieving the stones, Chen Da looked at the four people.

’It’s always best to start with me.’ He thought, shifting his focus to Mo Chenxuan and Xu Fei.

Because they were pretending to have fallen asleep while eating, none of the four were wearing masks.

At this time, Chen Da saw Mo Chenxuan’s face and couldn’t help but be moved.

“This face is wasted on a man.” He muttered, and Qin Wu almost lost her cool.

As the man’s secretary, Qin Wu knew that Mo Chenxuan was popular with both men and women.

Even people who didn’t like him couldn’t resist looking at him a few times whenever they met.

Knowing that Chen Da was ogling her man, she naturally wanted to lift her chair and smash the person.

’Just wait for me.’ She angrily thought.

Unfortunately, Chen Da was still looking at the beauty, completely unaware that he had provoked a terrible enemy.

After thinking about it, Chen Da finally decided to start with Mo Chenxuan.

“It’s best to control this beauty as early as possible.” He muttered, walking towards Mo Chenxuan.

After stopping beside Mo Chenxuan, he selected one of the stones and pocketed the rest.

A moment later, he raised his hand, preparing to open Mo Chenxuan’s mouth.

However, who was Qin Wu?

How could she let a random person touch her man?

Before Chen Da could touch Mo Chenxuan, a silver light flashed, and half an arm fell on the table.

Seeing the arm, Chen Da was momentarily surprised.

However, his surprise lasted half a second before he realised the arm was his own.

At the same time, four people sat up, and Chen Da reflexively retreated.

“You…, you…., you…,”

“You aren’t asleep? Is that what you want to ask?” Lin Rongrong sneered, and Chen Da narrowed his eyes in anger.

“You didn’t eat the food we gave you? How dare you disregard my kindness?”

“Kindness? Do we look like fools?”

“Old man, what were you trying to do to my man?” Qin Wu asked, and a trace of murderous intent flashed in her eyes.

“Do you want to know?” Chen Da asked with a teasing smile.

However, Qin Wu didn’t play his game and suddenly shook her head.

“What’s the use of knowing? I just need to kill you.”

While saying that, she unleashed another space slash and amputated the person’s leg.

“Bitch.” Chen Da roared in anger but didn’t know he had provoked another demon.

Without saying a word, Mo Chenxuan unleashed a lightning bolt and roasted the man.

However, Chen Da was more resilient than the four expected.

Although Mo Chenxuan and Qin Wu didn’t use their full strength to deal with the man, their attacks were enough to seriously injure the person.

Contrary to expectations, Chen Da was not at the point of death.

Instead, his injuries seemed to be healing at an incredible speed. Even the amputated limbs were quickly regenerating.

“This…” Lin Rongrong and the rest couldn’t help but be shocked.

“Is it a regeneration ability?” Xu Fei wondered, and Qin Wu narrowed her eyes.

In her previous life, Qin Wu had heard of healers who could regenerate limbs.

However, those healers were high-level superpowers.

Most importantly, even healers couldn’t regenerate limbs at such a fast speed.

Thinking of this, Qin Wu turned to Mo Chenxuan.

“This is not a healing ability.” The man said, and a trace of murderous intent flashed in his eyes.

When Chen Da first approached him, Mo Chenxuan sensed a trace of life in the four ’stones’.

It was only at this time that he realised the stones were actually eggs.

Based on that realisation and the current situation, Mo Chenxuan had a vague guess about the old man’s superpower.

However, he couldn’t be sure and needed to observe more.

With that in mind, he attacked the old man.

Seeing this, Qin Wu, Xu Fei, and Lin Rongrong also attacked.

However, the old man wasn’t fazed.

He seemed to have a bottomless reserve of superpower energy and could quickly recover from the attacks.

“I am immortal.” Chen Da suddenly laughed, looking at the four with mocking eyes.

“It doesn’t matter what you do. I can recover from any attack.”

“Can you grow another head if we behead you?” Qin Wu asked, her lips curled in a beautiful smile.

“What an evil woman! You actually treat your fellow human like this?” Chen Da argued, but he wasn’t as calm as he pretended.

In fact, he could regrow his head.

However, regenerating a head wasn’t the same as regrowing a limb.

Not only would he need a dozen times more energy, but he would also require a lot of time.

Most importantly, if the four were ruthless and maliciously burned his body, he wouldn’t be able to regrow himself.

“Fellow human? Are you still a human?” Mo Chenxuan sneered, and everyone turned to look at him.

“What are you talking about? I am clearly a human.” Chen Da argued.

“Can a human drain other humans in order to sustain their life? You have long ceased to be a human. You are just a parasite!” Mo Chenxuan said in a disgusted voice.

“Brother Mo, what do you mean?” Lin Rongrong asked in a curious voice.

“He is some kind of parasite mutant. Once he implants his egg into someone’s body, he can control that person and even drain their life.” Mo Chenxuan said, pointing at the old man’s injuries.

When the other three looked closer, they saw microscopic insects scurrying around the injuries.

Soon after, the injuries healed, and the old man regained his vigour.

“Disgusting.” Lin Rongrong exclaimed and subconsciously stepped back.

“Brother…” Qin Wu started, and a complicated look flashed in her eyes.

“I didn’t think a big-breasted woman could think of it.” Chen Da burst into laughter and quickly continued.

“The more you injure me, the faster I drain their lifespan and the more my superpower increases.”

“You truly are a parasite.” Lin Rongrong said through gritted teeth, but the old man wasn’t concerned.

“Aren’t you righteous people? What will you do now that you know I will continue to harm them if you continue to harm me?”

Unfortunately, the old man calculated wrong.

Although the four never did things against their conscience, they had their priorities straight.

They knew Chen Da was an evil that couldn’t be kept.

Even if it meant sacrificing everyone in Chenjia village, the old village chief couldn’t continue living.

This time, neither Mo Chenxuan nor Qin Wu acted.

Before they could do anything, a sword flashed and split Chen Da into a dozen pieces.

However, Xu Fei wasn’t done.

After the first attack, he continued attacking and soon separated Chen Da into more than a thousand pieces.

“It’s enough.” Mo Chenxuan said, and Xu Fei understood.

After that, the four watched as the old man tried to reconnect and regrow himself.

However, even the collective energy of the Chenjia villagers was not enough to heal himself.

After exhausting his energy, the old man stopped struggling, and his body parts lost all traces of life.

However, the four were not happy.

After all, this victory came at an extremely heavy cost.
