Chapter 169 Puppet Talisman
Bai Ruoqian glared at him with bloodshot eyes, "You saw me being bullied like this, and instead of helping me, you sided with him! Are you even my senior brother...?"
Seeing her reddened eyes, Yang Shen suddenly felt guilty. "How could your senior brother not care about you? It's just that this pointless confrontation is not good for anyone."
"Just ignore it!"
Bai Ruoqian snorted coldly, cursing Yang Shen in her heart, and began to condense a powerful sword technique to bombard the protective barrier.
However, every time it was about to be broken, Ye Luo would immediately repair it. Instead, their spiritual energy was depleted, and they began to experience spiritual exhaustion.
Su Yuyuan, panting heavily, retracted his magic weapon and said, "This won't do..."
Looking inside the formation, Ye Luo appeared calm and relaxed. He hadn't used much spiritual power at all; he had only consumed a large amount of spirit stones.
"I'll lend you some power. Quickly break the formation and kill him. Killing someone in a secret realm is a common occurrence. No matter what, the sect will protect you, so there's no need to worry too much."
"Alright!" Bai Ruoqian closed her eyes, and suddenly a powerful force erupted from her body. The mighty and cold spiritual energy filled the longsword, which she slashed fiercely at the magic array in front of her, shattering the protective barrier in an instant.
Caught off guard, Ye Luo was jolted back a few steps. Looking at Bai Ruoqian, whose power had suddenly increased, he narrowed his eyes and said, "She really does have a trump card hidden within her..."
"Prepare to die!"
Bai Ruoqian flashed forward and swung her sword at the stunned Ye Luo, but he nimbly dodged it. He then threw a talisman at her, which she easily blocked.
"Have you run out of tricks? Let's see what other schemes you have up your sleeve!"
Ye Luo, unfazed by Bai Ruoqian's movements, continued to toss several talismans at her. A maniacal smile spread across Bai Ruoqian's face. "I told you, these are useless against me! I'm killing her today no matter what—"
Before she could finish speaking, she was suddenly enveloped by a shadow, and a huge puppet appeared in front of her, its massive spider leg lunging at her.
Spider puppet?
Her heart tightened, and she instinctively raised her sword to block, only to be instantly blasted several meters away. Looking at the jet-black spider puppet not far away, she couldn't help but frown. "Could it be Cen Feng?"
But when she looked around, there was no sign of Cen Feng.
Ye Luo jumped onto the spider puppet and grinned at her, "Oh dear, almost."
"He... he's actually a puppet cultivator?" A disciple of the Tianfeng Sect asked in disbelief.
Su Yuyuan: "How is this possible!"
Yang Shen frowned for a moment before saying, "Among the talismans he cast just now, there should be a puppet talisman. This should be the 'shadow puppet' sealed inside. Although its power is slightly weaker than the original owner's, its strength should not be underestimated..."
"Even if it's a shadow puppet, it must have practiced puppetry..."
As soon as Yang Shen finished speaking, everyone looked at Ye Luo with surprise and a sense of defeat welled up in their hearts.
This guy is practically a cultivation fanatic!
Bai Ruoqian trembled with anger. She used the power of her soul-guiding technique, causing her spiritual power to surge instantly. With a loud shout, she charged towards Ye Luo.
"What's with this terrifying power within her?" Yang Shen looked at Su Yuyuan beside him and asked seriously, "Are you hiding something from me again?"
"No!" Su Yuyuan was also bewildered at this moment. Looking at Bai Ruoqian, who was fighting in the distance, he said with disappointment, "She does have many secrets... which she has not told us."
“Indeed.” Yang Shen looked at his expression and knew that he was not lying.
The techniques or powerful sword skills that inexplicably appeared on her were things he had never even heard of. Although she explained that they were bestowed by a master, they had never seen that 'master' before.
"I must find her and ask her about this another day..."
With the power of the Soul-Guiding Technique and the advantage in realm, Ye Luo was quickly suppressed by Bai Ruoqian.
Under the onslaught of a sword array, the shadow puppet was shattered. Ye Luo was thrown into the air by the impact, a fragment cutting a small gash on her face before crashing into the giant flower behind her.
"Die!" Bai Ruoqian's face was full of malice as she charged towards Ye Luo with her sword, only to be suddenly struck away by a burst of spiritual energy.
Before Ye Luo could react, he was sucked into the giant flower behind him, its golden petals layered upon layer, tightly enveloping him.
"What kind of tricks are they playing..." Bai Ruoqian looked at the giant flower and didn't dare to go forward rashly for a moment. She had only cut the tree trunk and had already angered the will and laws of this place.
"Junior Sister, are you alright?" Yang Shen stepped forward and asked.
Bai Ruoqian glanced at him coldly, "Hmph, it's none of your business!"
Yang Shen: "..."
Suddenly, her gaze fell on Yu Xian'er, and she lunged at her fiercely, "Since that's the case... I'll capture her and see if you dare to come out!"
"Junior Sister, watch out!"
"Shut up!" Bai Ruoqian roared angrily, her eyes bloodshot with rage, and charged forward without looking back.
Just then, she suddenly felt enveloped by a terrifying pressure, and her forward-moving body was instantly frozen in place. A tall and slender figure suddenly appeared in front of her, his handsome face filled with a terrifying chill.
"Nan Muyin, stop!"
Fearing she would be killed by a sword, Yang Shen quickly pulled Bai Ruoqian behind him.
Only then did Bai Ruoqian realize that Yang Shen had noticed her presence and was trying to warn her.
A moment later, many figures emerged from the crack, including not only Yu Xuan and Yu Qianling, but also Cen Feng and his group.
Seeing Bai Ruoqian's pale face, she immediately withdrew the power of her Soul Guidance, fearing that Du Jiaoxi would discover something amiss.
Cen Feng: "Hey, it's so lively! What kind of treasure is this big flower bud?"
Shi Li greeted Shi Yi and chuckled, "This flower bud belongs to your junior brother, Ye Luo."
"Huh?" Cen Feng was quite surprised.
Hearing this, Ling Shu was also taken aback, "My Ye-ge... is he going to become a flower fairy?"
"..."
Nan Muyin glanced at Bai Ruoqian, then walked towards Yu Xian'er and said softly, "Are you alright?"
"Brother Yin, I'm fine."
"Come here quickly." Yu Xian'er called the group over and briefly explained what had just happened.
"So... this big flower bud really is Junior Brother?"
Cen Feng circled around it, and just as he reached out to tap it a few times, Yan Xiao grabbed his wrist. "Danger!"
Yan Xiao's voice drew everyone's attention, making him feel uneasy. Yu Qianling was the first to ask, "Fifth Junior Brother, who is he?"
"Oh, my human puppet."
"A human puppet?" Nan Muyin looked at Yan Xiao with a scrutinizing gaze, secretly probing him with her divine sense. She found that it was indeed not a living person, and then she relaxed her guard a little. "Where did you get such a high-level puppet?"
"Junior Brother Yan obtained it by chance, and then generously gave it to me."
Upon hearing this, Nan Muyin looked surprised. "Is it really for you?"
Cen Feng: "Yeah, what's wrong?"
"Do you know that these high-level puppets on the market cost tens of millions of spirit stones..."
"???"
