"Impossible to be unpredictable!"

Xing Tian, controlling Shen Er’s body, looked at Chen Qing with a gloomy face and a trace of disbelief in his voice: "We have all mastered the character data of your people, using the latest psychological technology to create prediction models—errors are impossible."

"Mathematics isn’t all-powerful...." Chen Qing gave him a sidelong glance: "I admit this discipline is magical, but if you can calculate human nature so accurately, why not create a whole bunch of people yourselves to continue technological advancements, instead of trying to capture humans to serve you? "

Xing Tian: "...."

"Human creativity is irreplaceable, human complexity unpredictable. That’s where you cold data folks differ from us. Perhaps this time we’re still no match, but as long as the Human Race exists, there will come a day when you will lose."

"Is that so?" Xing Tian looked at Chen Qing: "Did you already know I was hidden in his body?"

"Recently guessed it."

"Were you waiting patiently for me to come out?"

"Yes..." Chen Qing smiled: "Only when you’re close to Ali do you seize control, and then is the moment I have a chance to detach you from Shen Er."

"You could’ve destroyed me, yet you took that risk. What if I captured the fox first?"

"I had no choice..." Chen Qing shook his head: "Nothing can have a perfect outcome. If you want to save people, you must have the resolve to possibly suffer a loss. Directly killing would indeed be the least risky, but if I did that, I’d lose the trust of the Shen Family and the highly potential Shen Er. Every seed is precious, possibly key to countering you. I’m not the Prophet behind you; I can’t predict what’s to come.

To win, you must strive for every advantage! "

"You’re terrifying..." Xing Tian seriously looked at Chen Qing: "The Prophet’s data was wrong, the model he has is outdated."

"To be called terrifying by the Fearful Heavenly Demon is indeed an honor."

With those words, the prepared Dharma Seal was activated directly.

The technique for soul separation is rare, thanks to the King of Qin, who had been studying such matters while in his own body.

Now there were small achievements, and this was the first practical use.

Hope this guy doesn’t let me down at the critical moment.

As the Soul Eye opened, Chen Qing clearly saw the connection between the monster and Shen Er. Due to the opponent’s first time controlling a body and Shen Er’s fierce resistance, a soul barrier was formed, extremely apparent. Chen Qing, without hesitation, slashed at it.

Ali watched breathlessly beside, unaware she was in such a crisis while just being here as a bystander.

With precise cutting, not a millimeter off, a clump of black soul body was completely severed. The moment it was freed, Chen Qing used the Hell Ruler Technique to confine this black soul body.

As expected, monsters with great abilities are often not very strong themselves. The Fearful Heavenly Demon, revealing its soul body, was the size of a small meatball, parasitically on humans like a tumor. This imagination, probably also Pu Yunchuan’s twisted humor upon learning he had cancer?

Chen Qing confined the soul body, looking at Ali.

Ali glared fiercely at Chen Qing: "Why didn’t you tell me about something this important?"

"Couldn’t tell you..." Chen Qing shook his head: "If you hadn’t shown that kind of fright just now, it might not have come out. Fearful emotions are very sensitive to it; there’s a big difference between pretending and being genuine. So I absolutely couldn’t tell you."

"You used me as bait?"

"Had no choice...." Chen Qing showed a sorry smile: "If we didn’t catch it, it would always threaten you. Taking a risk once is better than living in constant fear."

"Hmph... such ridiculous reasoning!" Ali angrily glared at Chen Qing.

Chen Qing shook his head with a bitter smile, carefully placing the Heavenly Demon into a space box.

How to deal with this thing is a problem—destroying it would be wasteful. If its power can be harnessed to counterattack the Heavenly Demons, it would be a sharp weapon.

"Master..." Shen Er wobbled up, giving a deep bow.

"Look how weak you are, still doing this?" Chen Qing gave him a sidelong glance and helped him up: "Always afraid to pursue Murong because of physical frailty, right? Still don’t realize that bit of dividence."

"Master, you..." Shen Er’s face changed instantly, could the Master of the Divine Path see through his thoughts?

"Don’t make that face, your little thoughts, perhaps only you think others don’t know. Fatty spread it everywhere long ago..."

Shen Er: "...."

Never felt this near-death sensation before. His thoughts were even known to Zhou Pangzi?

Spread everywhere?

When he goes back, he’ll reincarnate that guy into the beast realm.

"Your spirit revival at the last moment was key to this success, otherwise saving you would be difficult." Chen Qing said seriously.

Anyone encountering such an incident would probably give up resistance at the first moment, since the opponent intends to control your body and harm everyone important to you. Such a scene is something anyone would avoid.

Yet Shen Er refused to sleep; he’d rather watch with open eyes and keep the hatred in his heart. He’s that type of extreme person, but sometimes, some things require extreme people to succeed.

"Still, thanks to the master’s rescue." Shen Er gratefully bowed: "I knew the master could save me, just didn’t expect it so soon."

"Haha, didn’t tell you because...."

"I know, the fear emotion..." Shen Er nodded.

Moreover, that thing was inside him; Chen Qing couldn’t tell him, or the whole plan would fail. This time was truly an extraordinary risk.

"Sir, that monster spoke of a Prophet, seemingly omniscient, capable of predicting your success and placing pawns on me."

"It’s a troublesome entity but not omniscient, just like this time, didn’t it fail to predict?"

"But..." Shen Er hesitated, what if it predicts correctly multiple times, despite missing this once?

According to Chen Qing, this was an unprecedented battle, with the opponent’s strength surpassing any ancient entity, capable of destroying numerous worlds—a terrifying Race. And such an existence even has a Prophet capable of predicting their future, how terrifying is that?

This time, they miscalculated Chen Qing, but in the grand scheme, they weren’t wrong. Just this advantage could mean endless superiority on any battlefield.

"How to win against such monsters on the battlefield?" Shen Er hesitated to ask.

"On the battlefield?" Chen Qing shook his head: "It’s impossible to win on the battlefield."

Though Chen Qing didn’t want to admit it, this was the reality. A Prophet that can predict the future and has a fearsome computing ability—it can anticipate countless large and small battlefields. You might surprise in one battlefield, but surely not all, right?

In such a grand campaign, winning in only one or two places is useless.

On the front lines, it’s an insoluble dilemma!
