Shocked! The Young Master's Petite Darling Is a Master of Mysteries-Chapter 439 Soul Devourer

Xie Huang said there was an incident, and it was his superior who encountered trouble.

Recently, the Supernatural Event Investigation Bureau discovered several bizarre incidents. After reporting to the superior, the response was indifferent, which aroused Xie Huang and others’ suspicion, so they quietly sent someone to monitor their superior.

As a result, not long ago, his people discovered that their superior seemed to be controlled by something.

There was something wearing their superior’s skin, giving orders in their place!

With this major discovery, his people immediately called him, requesting Xie Huang to provide a course of action.

As Xie Huang happened to be at the Lu Family, he asked Lu Zechuan for help in handling it.

On the way to his superior, Lu Zechuan listened to Xie Huang’s words and couldn’t help but lightly furrow his brows.

According to Xie Huang’s subordinate’s account, the ability to control a host and continue living wearing their skin could only mean a soul eater!

Lu Zechuan’s expression was grave. Such entities were already a headache for people in the Mystical World, and they were even more unforeseeable for ordinary people in the current world!

Moreover, the current deadly issue was that these entities seemed to have considerable intelligence and knew how to strategically take control by intervening at the top, starting from the Supernatural Event Investigation Bureau’s superior... 𝚏𝕣𝕖𝚎𝚠𝚎𝚋𝚗𝐨𝐯𝕖𝕝.𝕔𝐨𝕞

Lu Zechuan sat silently in the back seat while Xie Huang drove, also bearing a heavy expression.

Their superior also had a superior. If their superior was possessed by something sinister, what about the superior above their superior?

Now, could their supernatural investigation still function normally?

Under Xie Huang’s growing anxiety, they quickly arrived downstairs at the building where Xie Huang’s superior lived.

Song Ci, Xie Huang’s subordinate, saw Xie Huang’s car approaching and quickly revealed himself from the shadows to greet them.

Once inside Xie Huang’s car, Song Ci explained the current situation gravely to Xie Huang, "Wang Cheng just went up, and he hasn’t come down yet."

Xie Huang pressed his lips tightly, "Let’s go up as well."

Knowing that something was wrong with the superior, yet still approaching, Wang Cheng’s condition might not be favorable now.

Song Ci showed some worry, "Director Xie, Brother Wang said if he doesn’t come down soon, they’ll bypass Elder Zhang and report further up..."

Xie Huang got out of the car, "Let’s go up and check the situation first."

Elder Zhang’s body had been occupied by something inexplicable, his mind no longer under his control. Wang Cheng going up at this time may be harmed by Elder Zhang; they must promptly rescue Wang Cheng.

Lu Zechuan followed behind Xie Huang and Song Ci without speaking.

Having dealt with soul eaters before, he knew their greatest skill was devouring others’ souls, but they also had a fatal weakness—fear of light and fire.

Lu Zechuan practiced cultivation techniques of the Wood Clan, traditionally afraid of fire, but Lu Zechuan was different from ordinary Wood Clan members.

While cultivating Wood Clan techniques, he also practiced Divine Clan techniques, so controlling fire was not difficult for him.

While Lu Zechuan’s thoughts wavered, Xie Huang and Song Ci were already standing at the door of Elder Zhang’s home.

The door to Elder Zhang’s house was wide open; in the living room, Elder Zhang’s wife and children were huddled in a corner, Elder Zhang’s wife holding the child and trembling, eyes filled with dread.

"Sister-in-law," Xie Huang called out to Elder Zhang’s wife.

Sister-in-law Zhang snapped out of her daze, shivering all over, "Director Xie... Save my husband, Old Zhang!!!"

As she spoke, Sister-in-law Zhang’s eyes darted towards the bedroom as if suddenly remembering something, "Save your colleague!"

Tonight, she had already fallen asleep, but hearing noises in the living room, she got up to check. She saw a black smoke emerging from her husband Old Zhang, transforming into a skull shape mid-air, looking terrifyingly creepy...

Sister-in-law Zhang screamed in fright, and Old Zhang turned towards the noise, grinning at her, baring his white teeth with strands of raw meat hanging between them, almost causing her to collapse on the spot...

A young man from the Supernatural Event Investigation Bureau heard the commotion, rushed inside, and led Old Zhang into their bedroom, and hasn’t come out since.

The young man had rushed in to save them, and they could only hope nothing happened to him!

Hearing that Wang Cheng was in Elder Zhang’s bedroom, Xie Huang immediately wanted to rush in.

But Lu Zechuan held him back.

"Hold on," Lu Zechuan tightened his sword-like eyebrows.

As he spoke, his gaze slowly landed on Sister-in-law Zhang and the child in the living room.

The Soul-devouring Clan could control human souls, occupy human bodies, and after perfectly merging with the host’s body, live like a host.

The mother and child before them seemed no different from normal humans, but Lu Zechuan sensed an aura from them that did not belong to humans!

So, whether this mother and child were still human was genuinely questionable.

Under Lu Zechuan’s sharp stare, the mother and child couldn’t help but shrink a little more.

"Hurry up, go on! Any more delay, and your colleague might be dead!" urged Sister-in-law Zhang.

Xie Huang didn’t initially notice anything odd about Sister-in-law Zhang and her child, but now, with the incessant urging to hurry to the bedroom, his worry-fueled logic slowly returned.

The bedroom door was tightly closed, blocking views from outside.

There was no sound from the inside either, leaving them clueless about what was happening.

If there was a trap set inside, would they fall right into it by rushing in like this?

"What are you hesitating about! My husband Old Zhang has gone mad! If you don’t go in, Old Zhang will devour your colleague alive!" Sister-in-law Zhang was getting anxious.

It sounded like she was genuinely considering Wang Cheng’s safety.

A shadow clouded Lu Zechuan’s eyes, "Your husband Old Zhang went mad? I think your entire family has gone mad."

As his words fell, flames suddenly danced at his fingertips.

Upon seeing the flames at Lu Zechuan’s fingertips, fear instinctively flickered in Sister-in-law Zhang’s eyes.

Seeing this, what more did Lu Zechuan need to understand?

The entire family of Elder Zhang had already been taken over by the Soul-devouring Clan!

Now, with no sound coming from Elder Zhang’s bedroom, that young officer from the Supernatural Event Investigation Bureau named Wang Cheng probably met a misfortune already.

Or perhaps, he too had been possessed by those Soul-devouring Clan people!

Lu Zechuan’s face darkened, "Will you come out by yourselves, or shall I invite you out?"

The Soul-devouring Clan had witnessed Xia Mian’s methods but had yet to see Lu Zechuan’s capabilities.

Instinctively, they weren’t very afraid of Lu Zechuan.

But the flames flickering at Lu Zechuan’s fingertips were terribly frightening, causing the soul eaters occupying Sister-in-law Zhang and her child’s bodies to tremble uncontrollably.

Now, what more did Xie Huang need to understand? His superior’s entire family was likely already compromised!
