"You look so harmless when you\'re sleeping so peacefully."

Xu Shan sat on the bed, looking at the unconscious Saintess. Ever since the dark-haired woman disappeared, he was left alone with the Saintess, lost in thought.

"Could you really be the one who killed him?" It appeared as if he was talking to himself, still wondering how the real Third Prince actually died. "Or was it your Celestial Spirit?"

There were many mysteries in this world when it came to Celestial Spirits. There were also many people who Awakened Celestial Spirits that had never appeared before, for example, his own Celestial Spirit of Devouring.

"Umm..."

Xu Shan raised his brows, hearing the Saintess making a sound. It was as if she was close to waking up.

The Saintess of the Celestial Palace was well known all around the world. However, only the people of the Celestial Palace knew that her real name was Yu Fei. Moreover, even in the Celestial Palace, the number of people who knew what kind of Celestial Spirit she had could be counted with a single hand.

She had barely turned twenty years old, and she was close to becoming an Earth Celestial, which was the same realm where Xu Shan\'s Royal Guard Zi Huang was.

Xu Shan understood just how much trouble this girl could be. When he first came to this world, he really hesitated about killing people. However, he could feel changes in himself...changes that he didn\'t like.

He couldn\'t help but look at his slightly pale hands.

\'As expected, I don\'t feel anything at the thought of killing someone. The Celestial Spirit of Devouring... Just what exactly are you?\'

While he was slightly distracted, the Saintess finally opened her eyes, only to be stunned at the realization that she wasn\'t in the restaurant anymore.

Moreover, she could feel that her hands and legs were tied, which shocked her. The last thing she remembered was that she was eating in the restaurant and the next thing she knew… the world turned completely dark! She knew she had been poisoned!

Even though her hands and legs were tied, it wasn\'t enough to stop her, especially now that she was awake! She was already a 9th-grade Celestial General after all! Just a little force and the chains that tied her hands and legs broke apart.

The Saintess sat up while a frown developed on her face as she noticed Xu Shan standing beside the bed with his hands behind his back.

"You\'re the one who drugged me?" Her eyes observed her surroundings. Her face darkened as she realized that she was in someone\'s bedroom. On top, her hands and legs were tied previously, which made her think of a lot of things!

A trace of killing intent flashed in her eyes as if she was going to kill the man before her if she didn\'t get a satisfactory answer!

Even though her Sword and other treasures were missing, she could see that the man before her was a mortal. She didn\'t need weapons to kill an insect!

Fortunately, she still had clothes on her body and knew that nothing had truly happened. Otherwise, she wouldn\'t even wait to ask a question!

"I would advise you to drop your thoughts about killing me. Otherwise, before your hands can even reach my neck, your head will roll on the ground."

Generally, Xu Shan would\'ve been pretty scared to face the killing intent of a Celestial General. However, ever since his innate nature changed, for some reason, he lost his ability to feel fear at all, along with some other senses.

At times he even wondered if he could still feel sadness and happiness or not. He was still the previous Xu Shan, but his emotions weren\'t in his control anymore, if he had any left. Only his thoughts were still the same old; however, even they were slowly getting corrupted.

Yu Fei\'s brows arched as her frown deepened. She couldn\'t feel anyone else in this room. That\'s why she didn\'t understand why this mortal before her was so confident? Unless there was an Earth Celestial or a Sky Celestial hiding in this room to protect him?

As she thought of the possibility, her face became even more solemn. She realized that not many people could afford a luxurious room like this.

The man before her was definitely an heir of one of the four Major Clans of the Eternal Dynasty or even a Royal Family member! Since she hadn\'t seen the Third Prince before, she couldn\'t directly recognize him. Even she didn\'t believe that the Third Prince would be stupid enough to kidnap her.

"Who are you?"

"The last man on earth," Xu Shan lazily answered, thinking back to the words the Saintess had spoken in the restaurant about the Third Prince. "The villain that you wanted to kill with your own hands."

Even though there was no smile on Xu Shan\'s face, Yu Fei could feel that those words were filled with taunts!

At this point, it wasn\'t hard for her to recognize who the person before her was! She also gained a rough understanding as to why he made a move against her.  However, what she didn\'t understand was why she was still alive?

She slowly moved back, getting off the bed and onto her feet.

"Where are my friends?" She asked.

Since she knew that the man before her was the Third Prince, she couldn\'t ignore the possibility that someone was really hiding in the room. Why else would the Third Prince be so confident and unafraid in this situation?!

"They went on a long vacation. I doubt you\'ll see them in the future. They might just settle in the place they went to, after all."

"You killed them?" Yu Fei\'s body was visibly trembling as if she found it really hard to control her anger. If she wasn\'t worried that someone was hiding in the darkness, she would\'ve already crushed the Third Prince\'s throat.

"Me?" Xu Shan shrugged as he lazily turned around as if he didn\'t even take her presence seriously. "I\'m but a weak human without a Celestial Spirit. Do you really think I can kill people?"

The Saintess clenched her fists. Throughout her conversation, she had been trying to find where the Royal Guards were hiding. However, until now, she had no idea.

"Be careful of this man. He is dangerous." While the Saintess was trying to find a way to get close to Xu Shan without getting killed by the hidden expert, she heard a voice in her head that appeared to have come from the depths of her soul.
