Chapter 69: Deadly Danger

Ji Chenxi typically disliked doubting his judgment, but at that moment, he was influenced by the abnormal pheromones. Therefore, upon catching that scent, he didn't think Chi Zhuo had arrived; instead, he felt something was wrong with his own perception.

It was quite the turn of fate; he had just mocked Chi Zhuo for his pheromone disorder, and now, that confusion had promptly fallen onto him.

Ji Chenxi shook his head, trying to regain some clarity.

Facing the aggressive omega, who clearly had malicious intentions, Ji Chenxi dared to dive into the situation, so how could he be unprepared at all?

He had two suppressants in hand; one was a standard S-grade, while the other, with its dark blue liquid, was a concentrated special type, capable of quickly calming an alpha in a susceptible phase. The only downside was that it could cause significant harm to the body, potentially leading to instability in subsequent susceptible phases.

Ji Chenxi chose the special type without hesitation. His susceptibility due to the high compatibility omega's heat wouldn't be easily resolved.

With one hand holding the omega girl down and the other injecting the suppressant into himself, he was also calculating how Wu Zhang's actions were progressing. Ji Chenxi didn't fully trust Wu Zhang, but he believed Wu Zhang could clean up those who were lurking and observing. Even if he couldn't, Ji Chenxi still had a trump card; the Nightwalker had been waiting for Ji Chenxi to assign him a task.

Just as Ji Chenxi was about to inject the suppressant, his hand hesitated slightly. The scent of alcohol in his perception became more pronounced, almost as if it were trying to stop him from administering the suppressant, making his head spin even more.

He was being pulled between two states. His brain could still think clearly, but his rationality was beginning to waver. His perception of the outside world was no longer as clear as it had been at first.

Ji Chenxi furrowed his brows and pressed the omega girl down into the water again.

At that moment, his expression was cold, his knuckles prominent as he firmly held the girl, giving her no chance to escape.

If he accidentally killed a noble omega during a susceptible phase, even as a prince, he would face punishment. However, as long as he suppressed the matter, the losses he incurred wouldn't be as great as they had planned. The ones lurking in the shadows, observing Ji Chenxi, were growing anxious. Why hadn't the serpent arrived yet? Didn't the tech department say they had reviewed the information? Surely they couldn't be so paranoid.

The people in the shadows deliberately made some noise to attract Ji Chenxi's attention, giving the susceptibility time to ferment.

Monitoring Ji Chenxi should have been extremely simple. Ever since they secretly discovered the high compatibility between the Third Prince and Wen Rui, which reached 86%, they only needed some drug enhancement. This 86% compatibility could directly yield a 90% effect. A 90% compatibility indicated a soul bond; Ji Chenxi should have been irresistibly drawn to Wen Rui and marked her. Yet, the current situation was that he could barely maintain his rationality while still pressing the small omega down into the water.

What good was the serpent's arrival if it was just to help the Third Prince dispose of a body?

The reeds stirred slightly, and Ji Chenxi glanced over to see a large gray mouse scurry out and quickly flee.

Ji Chenxi narrowed his eyes. "So it was just a mouse."

The person in the shadows felt displeased but didn't expect that in this short time, Ji Chenxi had already removed the needle from the suppressant. The discarded needle was suddenly thrown from Ji Chenxi's hand, aiming straight at the opposite direction where the mouse had appeared, landing perfectly in a way that sealed its throat.
