However, the Great Elder's timing for him to make a move was too subtle. The best way to put it was to help Chen Xiao at his most dangerous moment; the worst way to put it, was to help him when Chen Xiao was in his worst condition. And in this kind of situation, the Great Clan Elder had the ability to make a move against Chen Xiao and seize his Spirit Beast Heart.
"You want to help me? I'm afraid you don't have some sort of motive, right? " Chen Xiao's tone was very bad.
The Great Clan Elder revealed an embarrassed smile and said, "Chen Xiao, you don't have to worry. I really want to help you this time, and I won't do anything bad to you. However, if I am to help you, I want you to help me with something as well. "
"Oh? "Tell me about it." The Great Clan Elder's words caught Chen Xiao's interest. If the Great Clan Elder gave a reasonable explanation, Chen Xiao wouldn't mind trusting him again for the time being.
"Actually, it's not that difficult. Even after I help you, can you use your spirit beast heart to treat my Lord Ant Queen? " The Great Elder stated his request. This request caused Chen Xiao to involuntarily raise his eyebrows.
"Healing the Queen? "What, you want me to cure the Queen and then let her deal with me?" Chen Xiao immediately pointed out a possibility.
However, the Great Elder shook his head hurriedly, "No no no, I definitely won't do that! Actually, the reason why I want the Spirit Beast Heart is to let Lord Ant Queen recover as soon as possible. As the empress of our Ant Demon s, her place in our hearts is absolutely first. "
"However, after the incident with the Sand Man, Lord Ant Queen was injured and had been unconscious for a long time. How much longer it would take her to wake up, no one could say. Perhaps wait for the day I die of old age, Lord Ant Queen might not even be able to wake up. However, if you have a Spirit Beast Heart, then it's different. "
The Great Elder paused for a moment before continuing, "The Spirit Beast Heart is a sacred artifact of the demi-humans. It has the effect of healing. With its help, the Queen Ant's injuries can definitely be healed."
At this point, the Great Elder's expression turned awkward, "Actually, the reason I want to control you is only because of your strength. After sealing the artifact spirit again, the Sacred Ground would definitely reappear, and at that time, there would definitely be many demi-humans attracted to it. I am not sure about the strength of the demons outside, but we Ant Demon s are not strong yet. Therefore, if I want to use the Spirit Beast Heart to heal the Lord Ant Queen, I need to have sufficient strength to guard the Spirit Beast Heart. Otherwise, once others find out that the Spirit Beast Heart is in the hands of my Ant Fey, it will undoubtedly be a disaster for him. "
After hearing the Great Clan Elder speak of this much, Chen Xiao finally understood everything.
~ It seems that the Great Clan Elder's plans are all for the treatment of Lord Ant Queen. Of course, this was only on the surface. Whether it was true or not, only he himself knew.
However, the Great Clan Elder had already explained the situation so clearly. After thinking about it for a while, Chen Xiao was sure that he could trust the Great Clan Elder one more time.
However, Chen Xiao actually had no other choice other than to receive Grand Elder's help. As long as he agreed, even if the Great Elder still wanted to do something to him, it would not be now. And if he refused in exchange for the Great Elder's anger, there was no guarantee that the Great Elder would act against him and snatch away the Spirit Beast Heart.
In fact, Chen Xiao was overthinking it. The Great Elder truly needed the Spirit Beast Heart. However, he now understood that the Heart was a bomb that could explode at any time, and it was a quite powerful one at that! If it were to be taken as his own, forget about others, just the Spirit Demon Emperor and Kuang Hu were not an existence that the Ant Fey could withstand.
The current Ant Fey was not the old Ant Fey …
Under the arrangements of the Great Clan Elder, Chen Xiao once again returned to the Ant Demon Village. Just as he returned, he saw Da Ta rushing over first. The young lad saw that Chen Xiao's expression was not good and immediately asked if he was injured.
With regards to this, Chen Xiao laughed, feeling warmth in his heart.
"Da Ta, take Chen Xiao to rest first. Then, in the next two days, do your best not to disturb him and let him have a good rest, understand? " Back in the village, the Great Elder was kind and wise again, totally different from the outside world.
"Understood." Da Ta nodded heavily. He immediately supported Chen Xiao and headed back to his residence. Other than helplessly accepting it, Chen Xiao had no other choice. In the end, his current condition really wasn't that good.
...
Seeing Chen Xiao and Da Ta disappear, the Great Clan Elder's expression became serious. On the way back, he kept thinking about one question: Was it right or wrong for him to save Chen Xiao?
However, until now, he had yet to give a clear answer to this question …
At the same time Chen Xiao returned to the Ant Demon village, the Demon Emperor and Kuang Hu led their subordinates inside the yellow sand maze, frantically searching for Chen Xiao. A Saint that had run away from the hands of the two of them was simply laughable. Especially for Kuang Hu, he had never had the experience of failing a mission within the Extermination Sect. If those three people were to find out that he couldn't even match up with a Saint rank expert, they would definitely ruthlessly mock him!
As a result, Kuang Hu's hatred towards Chen Xiao soared, and even thought of bringing Chen Xiao back as a corpse, instead of just bringing him back …
However, no matter how Kuang Hu thought about it, after they had gone through the entire yellow sand maze, they could not find any trace of Chen Xiao. Not to mention Chen Xiao, even the Ant Demon that had rescued Chen Xiao had not been seen.
"Spirit Demon Emperor, the one who saved the boy was the Ant Demon, right? The Ant Demon should also be a member of your Spirit Demon Race right? " Annoyed, Kuang Hu complained to the Spirit Demon Emperor.
These words caused the expression on the Demon Emperor's face to turn ugly. It was true that the Ant Demon belonged to the Spirit Demon race, but as the Spirit Demon Emperor himself, the Ant Fey had never come into contact with it. Furthermore, even if he was the Demon Emperor, that did not mean that he controlled the entire demon clan. What the other demon race wanted to do was the other party's business. Even though he was the Demon Emperor, he would not go all out to interfere.
Another thing that the Demon Emperor is extremely unhappy about is that this place is the Demon Land and is the Demon Emperor's territory. You Extermination Sect came as you please, and didn't even bother to tell me, the Demon Emperor, what do you think of me, the Demon Emperor, as?
