But her arm was suddenly supported by a pale and bloodless hand.
The same icy coldness could be clearly felt even through the clothes.
She frowned slightly as she looked at the person who had suddenly appeared beside her; it was none other than the corpse puppet Xiao Tian.
The corpse puppet Xiao Tian still had runes left by Wei Qinghe on her body, and her face was expressionless.
However, Wei Qinghe could sense that he meant her no harm. He even seemed to have his own consciousness and knew that he should help her up at this moment.
"Junior Sister!" Qiao Luoning rushed over.
She stared at the corpse puppet Xiao Tian in astonishment, "How...how did he know to help you?"
Wei Qinghe shook her head slightly. "I don't know. Maybe he doesn't want to continue being a corpse puppet of the Ghost King Sect."
Wei Qinghe also heard Xiao Yun's words and realized that the corpse puppet Xiao Tian was actually Xiao Yun's older brother.
Qiao Luoning had no interest in the corpse puppets. She looked at them with concern and self-reproach, saying, "Junior Sister, you're injured."
Wei Qinghe shook her head again, a faint smile on her face. "It's alright. The ghost cultivators who didn't die should have escaped. Senior Sister, you and Fenfen go ahead and get busy. I can't let this injury go to waste."
Qiao Luoning naturally trusted Wei Qinghe. At this time, she was still allowed to harvest treasures, so she must not have been seriously injured.
Sure enough, the next second, **Pink appeared.
“Master, Master, I found it, I found it… Who is this guy?” Pinky saw that the corpse puppet Xiao Tian had actually hidden behind Qiao Luoning.
"The Corpse Puppet Xiao Tian is Xiao Yun's older brother."
As Wei Qinghe spoke, she swallowed a few pills. The sect leader of the Ghost King Sect seemed very powerful; he could injure her with just a single battle from a distance.
"Uncle Qiao, let's go quickly. I don't want to stay in a place full of corpses." Fenfen tugged at Qiao Luoning's sleeve, wishing she could disappear immediately.
This experience has somewhat alleviated Qiao Luoning's fear.
Wei Qinghe flicked her sleeve, chose a clean spot, and was about to find a stone slab to rest when she saw the corpse puppet Xiao Tian bring a stone slab from somewhere and put it down.
Wei Qinghe looked at the corpse puppet Xiao Tian with great surprise. This guy actually has a good eye for things.
Although I am somewhat interested in corpse puppets, I can't carry a corpse around with me all the time.
Besides, she doesn't know how to preserve a corpse; if it stayed with her, it would probably rot in a few days.
“You are quite clever, but it’s inconvenient for me to carry a corpse with me, nor do I want to hide it on my person.”
Although Wei Qinghe was not afraid of corpses or ghosts, she didn't have that kind of fetish.
It was unclear whether the corpse puppet Xiao Tian had understood Wei Qinghe's words. He simply stood behind Wei Qinghe like a pine tree, as if waiting for her to give him instructions at any time.
She set up a formation on the spot, and then summoned Little White and Little Cat.
The Corpse Puppet Xiao Tian was invited outside the formation. He didn't react much, but simply guarded it quietly.
Wei Qinghe's consciousness was severely injured by the Ghost King Sect Master, and she now needs proper treatment and recuperation.
A tiny figure of light appeared between her brows and then entered her sea of consciousness.
It seems that the Ghost King Sect Master possesses powerful spiritual sense and is very skilled in spiritual attacks.
Fortunately, Wei Qinghe's sea of consciousness was not severely damaged, nor were any cracks left behind.
Spiritual energy and mental energy intertwined and moved, and the sea of consciousness gradually returned to calm. The phantoms of two swords and a pen each occupied one side of the sky above the sea of consciousness.
The handle of the Zi Dong Liu Yun pen appears to have some intricate carvings.
Little White and the kitten watched the corpse puppet Xiao Tian with great vigilance, ready to fight at any moment.
After this period of care, the kittens look almost fully recovered, and the two little ones stay together like twins.
"Why does this corpse look almost like a living person?" The more Xiao Bai looked at the corpse puppet, the stranger Xiao Tian felt.
"The crafting method for this corpse puppet must be different; it must have been crafted while the puppet was still alive," the kitten whispered.
"You even know about corpse puppets?" Little White was quite surprised. They were both White Tigers, so how could the little cat know so many things it didn't?
"I've been around that old guy for too long, so I know a thing or two."
The kitten seemed to sigh, as if it didn't want to bring up the past.
"Isn't Immortal Venerable Wenyuan a sword cultivator? Could he also be a ghost cultivator?"
Little White asked curiously, having just heard its master say that he was interested in the corpse puppet.
As the owner's most beloved pet, it will naturally try to satisfy the owner's needs for anything that interests it.
Of course that's right. It actually hopes that its master will learn more so that his path of cultivation will be less difficult in the future.
"So, it was actually Immortal Venerable Wenyuan who was chased here by ghost cultivators?"
The kitten's jewel-like eyes showed a struggle. "That old guy was actually being chased because he was protecting me. It has nothing to do with his cultivation."
