Chapter 88: Domineering Yet Filial



Seeing my Holy Power being consumed so quickly, my head was buzzing...

However, it still consumed 11.1 points of Holy Power to upgrade the Jade Ruyi to a Divine-rank magic weapon...

The cost is almost like water running out. I just earned 100 Holy Power points, which, combined with my previous accumulation, I thought would be enough, but after this series of operations, it's been halved...

Looking at the remaining 68.5 points of Holy Power, I couldn't help but feel a sense of despair...

When helping five people improve their strength, the system indicated that they could only be raised to the Martial Emperor realm, as this was already the upper limit of their talent. To continue improving their strength, their aptitude needed to be enhanced…

I almost stabbed the system with a knife. How is this any different from robbery?

Perhaps sensing my anger, the system indicated that only 0.1 Holy Power was needed to elevate a person to the Emperor rank, and the remainder would be waived…

Just when I was about to get emotional, I realized it was a trap...

Because the number following 0.1 is 0.01, it is rounded off and not calculated...

However, considering there were only five people, it did save some Holy Power, which was somewhat comforting...

With a heavy heart, I still consumed 0.5 Holy Power to elevate the five people to the Martial Emperor level, and also imparted my cultivation techniques to them...

After doing all this, Tuoba San slowly opened his eyes...

"Third Brother, are you alright?"

Even though she was heartbroken, Liu Lingxian still immediately expressed her concern for Tuoba San…

"I'm fine..."

Tuoba San replied casually…

Then she stood up as if searching for something, but Liu Lingxian completely ignored Tuoba San's expression and continued speaking.

“My mother-in-law…she’s already…”

Before Liu Lingxian could finish speaking, Tuoba San said impatiently.

"I know, my mother-in-law is dead..."

Liu Lingxian looked at Tuoba San in disbelief, wondering why he could speak so casually. After all, the Holy Puppet Granny had given him her inheritance, so why wasn't he sad at all?

“Xian’er, Xiao San has suffered too much. He watched his family members die one by one before his eyes. That night, he even shed tears of blood, but it was no use. At that time, he realized a truth: only by becoming strong can he control everything…”

I stood beside Liu Lingxian and comforted her...

Hearing my words, Liu Lingxian felt a little better, but instead felt sorry for Tuoba San…

Tuoba San seemed to have discovered something, and bent down to pick up a crystal...

Everyone was stunned when they saw the crystal in his hand; it was actually essence, only much larger than the essence of an Emperor-level being…

If the essence of an Emperor-level being is the size of a fingernail, then this piece is about the size of a quail egg…

"Third Brother, what's this?"

Liu Lingxian immediately rushed to Tuoba San's side and asked excitedly...

"This is the core for creating a puppet with independent consciousness..."

Tuoba San explained calmly, a thoughtful glint in his eyes. He had just received the inheritance from the Holy Puppet Granny and learned a great deal about the methods of puppet making…

The most important thing is the method of making puppets with independent consciousness. Grandma Saint Puppet is herself a puppet with independent consciousness, so how did she know the method of making it?

And why is the core essence source?

Suddenly, Tuoba San seemed to realize something. He spread his divine sense and quickly found a piece of essence in a deep pit...

It's even smaller than what Saint Puppet Granny left behind, which means that Saint Puppet Granny's core originated from an even more powerful monster from the Void God Realm...

However, the core of the Holy Puppet Granny has lost all power and its value...

Just as he was pondering how to deal with this relic, Liu Lingxian asked timidly.

"Third Brother, can I have this?"

Tuoba San didn't speak, but instead placed the core of the Holy Puppet Granny directly into Liu Lingxian's hand, causing Liu Lingxian's tears to flow uncontrollably again...

With pain and reluctance in her eyes, she knew that her loving mother-in-law would never come back…

"Third Brother, why don't you come back to the Divine Puppet Sect with me? I can take care of you there, and at least you won't have to wander like this anymore..."

After thinking about it, Liu Lingxian decided to ask Tuoba San for his opinion...

"I'm not going..."

Tuoba San answered decisively; he was unwilling to be a coward hiding behind a woman, so his tone was very firm…

"Why? The Divine Puppet Sect is a major sect. Not only do they have abundant cultivation resources, but they can also provide protection. Danger lurks everywhere in the Central Continent. You're all alone like this; it's very dangerous..."

Liu Lingxian said anxiously, no matter how many excuses she gave, she actually couldn't bear to see Tuoba San leave...

"unnecessary…"

Tuoba San's answer was cold and decisive, leaving Liu Lingxian feeling powerless...

"Xian'er, we still have things to do and it's not convenient for us to join the Divine Puppet Sect..."

I quickly tried to smooth things over, afraid of hurting Liu Lingxian too much...

I'm speechless at my eldest son's incredibly clueless behavior. I bet even the God of Love would be driven to despair. Even if the red thread were replaced with steel wire, it would have snapped in two by Tuoba San...

"Uncle Tuoba, is there anything else you need to do? It's too dangerous for a mere mortal like you to be running around like this..."

Liu Lingxian, using the excuse of caring about me, wanted to get Tuoba San to stay...

"You can return to your sect now. I'm going to the Three Forbidden Grounds..."

"no…"

Liu Lingxian shouted excitedly, clearly showing his knowledge of the Three Forbidden Lands, otherwise he wouldn't be so agitated…

Tuoba San frowned, looking at Liu Lingxian with obvious displeasure, and said...

"No one can stop me, not even you..."

The domineering tone made Liu Lingxian tremble, and her voice immediately softened. She said with concern...

"The Three Forbidden Zones are a place of certain death; I can't just stand by and watch you go to your death..."

"If I go, it won't be a certain death sentence anymore..."

Tuoba San said with great confidence and domineering...

"you…"

Liu Lingxian was furious, and she couldn't help but ask angrily.

"Why are you so stubborn? Going to the Three Forbidden Zones is suicide, don't you understand?"

"What does this have to do with you?"

Tuoba San asked, puzzled…

This made Liu Lingxian blush slightly, thinking to herself, "How am I supposed to answer this? Am I supposed to just say 'I like you'? That's too embarrassing..."

"Xian'er, don't be angry. It's all because of me. I'm the one who dragged that mistress down. I'm so useless; I might as well be dead..."

Upon hearing my words, Liu Lingxian looked puzzled, while Tuoba San excitedly exclaimed...

"Father, what are you saying? Even if I'm a burden, I'm willing, because you are a happy burden..."

Liu Lingxian thought to herself, "Third Brother is so handsome, and so filial. How can he have so many good qualities..."

"Hey, Xiao San wanted to find a spiritual root so I could embark on the path of cultivation, it's all my fault..."

I continued to wallow in self-pity, which made Tuoba San feel even more guilty. He looked at Liu Lingxian angrily and said...

"It's all your fault for making my father so sad. What business is it of yours where we go? Why are you being so nosy?"
