Son-in-law Heaven Emperor Xiao Yi-Chapter 443: Frantic Pursuit

```

"How do you wish to die?"

Xiao Yi's longsword in his hand spat forth Sword Qi, like a venomous snake revealing its fierce fangs.

In the flashing cold light,

a chilling breath swept through the surroundings in an instant.

The God Devouring Ants were indeed powerful!

But he was the Heavenly General, and even more, he possessed many secret techniques and heritages of the powerful, among which included the heritage of the Wind Thunder Master that mentioned the God Devouring Ants. With the power of Wind Thunder contained within his Wind Thunder Holy Body, he was perfectly suited to restrain these God Devouring Ants.

That's exactly why...

Upon discovering that Lin Xu controlled the God Devouring Ants, Xiao Yi also let out a sigh of relief.

Hiss hiss hiss!

Lin Xu's grip on his walking stick tightened, and the surrounding God Devouring Ants subsequently produced a series of hissing sounds, their gazes void of any emotion. Under the control of the God Devouring Ants queen, these ants were like puppets.

Fearless of death, only slaughter remained!

Lin Xu's face was as still as water, and seeing the corpses of the God Devouring Ants on the ground made his heart bleed, for he had invested countless efforts in raising these ants: "You little bastard, you dare to slaughter my God Devouring Ants? Do you know how much effort I put into raising them?"

For every person the queen of the God Devouring Ants devoured, it could give birth to ten more God Devouring Ants.

The tens of thousands of God Devouring Ants that Xiao Yi had just slain would have required the consumption of an entire small village!

"It is precisely because I know how you raised them, that I have to kill you even more!" Xiao Yi's sword tip rose, pointing at Lin Xu in front of him, his Sword Qi roaring like a rainbow, creating ripples in the air as it breathed in and out.

"Heheh, let's see if you have the ability!"

Amidst a grim smile, Lin Xu fiercely stomped the ground with his dragon-head cane.

Boom!

The ground suddenly let out a dull thud.

With his dragon-head cane as the center, ripples spread outwards in all directions, the cracks sprawling across the ground like a spider's web. On the ground, countless God Devouring Ants twisted their bodies frantically, swarming towards Xiao Yi in a dense mass.

As Xiao Yi had previously broken through the encirclement of God Devouring Ants and escaped to the side, Yang Ling and the others watched the scene with tense expressions.

The dense swarm of God Devouring Ants was enough to make one's scalp tingle.

Yang Ling clenched his fists, his face filled with concern: "Shen Mo, what chances do you think Xiao has of defeating these God Devouring Ants?"

"This..."

Shen Mo instinctively opened his mouth but realized the answer in his head was extremely pessimistic; he said with a wry smile, "I don't know much about the God Devouring Ants, but when we broke out earlier, I struck a few of them. These creatures have extremely tough shells and are very tricky to deal with. Moreover, their numbers are vast, they fear neither life nor death, and even though Director Xiao is strong, facing so many God Devouring Ants, I'm afraid..."

Yang Ling's complexion turned slightly pale.

Gu Yun, covered in blood and with a pained expression, said: "It's over, we're all going to die here..."

Meanwhile,

Xiao Yi was faced with a wall of black ants, their pairs of blood-red eyes fixed upon him, ready to devour. In their eyes, Xiao Yi was food, was prey.

"Rip him to shreds!" Lin Xu raised his arm, the dragon-head cane pointing towards Xiao Yi.

Boom!

The wall of ants writhed madly, suddenly transforming.

Into a massive black hand, the great hand lunging to crush Xiao Yi.

This hand, made entirely of God Devouring Ants, would leave Xiao Yi with no chance of escape if he were caught.

"Sword Qi Flower Lotus!"

"An endless cycle of life!"

Xiao Yi's face showed no emotion as he stood with his sword in hand, like an invincible swordsman.

Swish!

```

The Sword Qi Flower Lotus appeared out of nowhere, spinning and complementing each other, endlessly blooming. Sword Qi Flower Lotuses fell into the massive hand of the God Devouring Ants, exploding violently with a booming sound.

The black hand was cleaved open, leaving a huge gash.

Whoosh!

Xiao Yi dashed forward, shooting across the air like a bolt of lightning, passing through the gap in the massive hand.

His speed was incredibly fast.

Tapping his toes continuously on the Sword Qi Flower Lotuses in the void, his speed burst forth a second time, shooting through like an arrow released from a bowstring. As he passed through the black hand, the God Devouring Ants behind him had just filled the huge gap.

Transforming back into a black hand, it pursued Xiao Yi relentlessly.

"Not good!"

Lin Xu's face changed dramatically.

He had not expected Xiao Yi's sword technique to be so powerful that it could easily rip through the hand formed by the God Devouring Ants.

With the sharp Sword Qi already before him, Lin Xu, in haste, could only raise his cane to block in front of him. A thunderous 'thud' resonated as the cane trembled violently, sending out circular ripples.

The terrifying force transmitted up his arms, Lin Xu screamed in agony as the flesh at the base of his thumb split open, with even the bones in his arms showing signs of fractures.

"Such a terrifying force, this young man's strength is so formidable…"

Lin Xu's complexion drastically changed.

Seeing Xiao Yi charging at him again with his sword, his heart lost the desire to fight any longer. His figure fled, lifted and carried by a clutch of God Devouring Ants, as he ran madly into the distance.

At the same time…

Squads of God Devouring Ants formed a black tide, attempting to block Xiao Yi.

Lin Xu's own cultivation was merely at the First Nirvana Realm. If he engaged Xiao Yi in close combat, it would surely be a path to certain death. Previously, relying on the peskiness and vast numbers of the God Devouring Ants, he managed to capture Yang Kun and the others.

But now…

Against Xiao Yi, who possessed the Wind Thunder Holy Body as well as the Green Lotus Sword Song, the God Devouring Ants seemed virtually useless. Having lost his main reliance, he could only flee.

Watching Xiao Yi chasing relentlessly from behind, Lin Xu cursed viciously, "Damn it, if these God Devouring Ants hadn't just hatched, would I have fallen to such a wretched state? Xiao Yi, don't get too proud. Once I gather the rest of the God Devouring Ants army, your death will be at hand!"

Lin Xu had far more than the mere hundred and some thousand God Devouring Ants before him that he had cultivated to disrupt the Great Qian Dynasty's ancestral worship ceremony.

Among this batch of God Devouring Ants, the vast majority were new insects that had just hatched after devouring the people from the Gu Family Fort.

His true trump card wasn't with him.

The two of them, one chasing and one fleeing.

In the blink of an eye, they reached the exit of the Gu Family Fort. Xiao Yi glanced at Yang Ling and the others pursuing from behind using his peripheral vision. He patted his chest and instructed Little Lin, "Little Lin, protect Yang Ling and the rest, take them back to Northern Bing City and wait for me. I'll come back once I've dealt with Lin Xu!"

"Got it, Boss. Take care of yourself!" Little Lin nodded and flew towards Yang Ling and the others.

Xiao Yi nodded and resumed his mad pursuit of Lin Xu.

Along the way...

Xiao Yi continually slew the swarms of God Devouring Ants that tried to block him, watching the number behind him dwindle.

The distance between Xiao Yi and him grew ever closer.

Traversing through the woods, Xiao Yi's longsword swept across the sky, cutting down hundreds of towering trees with a swath of sword light. With a kick, the felled trees transformed into arrows, shooting forth with a whooshing sound.

Bang bang bang!

Several trees struck Lin Xu hard, the force causing him to spew blood from his mouth, but he dared not slow his pace.

With a vicious gleam in his eyes, Lin Xu roared, "Xiao Yi, stop chasing me... If you keep this up, don't blame me for being ruthless and slaughtering all the citizens of the Great Qian Dynasty atop this ice plain!"

"You can try..."

Xiao Yi sneered repeatedly, "Let's see whether you manage to slaughter them first, or I manage to slay you first!"
