"Immortal Venerable, please don't forget that my divine sense is inherently stronger than that of other cultivators of the same level."
As Wei Qinghe spoke, she looked at the corpse puppet Xiao Tian again.
The corpse puppet Xiao Tian still possessed divine consciousness. If it were to unleash what the Immortal Venerable had described, the chances would be far greater than those of other corpse puppets.
Does Xiao Tian not hate Xiao Yun? Why did he follow her instead of staying and waiting for Xiao Yun to find him?
Even if it didn't know about the attempt to seize its master's body, its divine sense should have known to endure and wait for the right opportunity.
After acquiring the Puppet Technique, Wei Qinghe wanted to familiarize herself with and practice it as soon as possible.
Meanwhile, the alchemist competition was progressing very smoothly.
Today's competition has ended; the final competition will begin tomorrow.
"Junior Sister, where is Senior Sister?" Qi Cheng asked anxiously as soon as he and the others arrived in front of Wei Qinghe.
Without seeing Qiao Luoning, one cannot be completely at ease.
"Senior Sister should be waiting at home."
Wei Qinghe picked up Xiaobai and stood up, her gaze sweeping towards the corner.
Mei Wushuang was actually hiding in a corner, peeking.
"At home?"
Qi Cheng was even more worried. Could it be that Qiao Luoning was seriously injured and had already been sent back to the Spirit Sect?
Wei Qinghe could tell from his flustered and uneasy expression that he had misunderstood.
"Don't overthink it. Senior Sister is unharmed and is waiting for me at her home here. I had someone buy her a house here."
Qi Cheng sighed, both amused and exasperated, realizing he truly had no faith in his junior sister.
As soon as Wei Qinghe moved, the corpse puppet Xiao Tian followed suit.
"Who is this?" Qi Cheng asked curiously, looking at the corpse puppet Xiao Tian following behind Wei Qinghe.
So well wrapped up, it's really impossible to tell who it is.
However, Qi Cheng knew that this was definitely not a disciple of the Spirit Sect.
"We'll talk about it when we get back."
As soon as the group left, Mei Wushuang emerged from the shadows.
Her eyes seemed to be filled with poison.
...
Because the Pill Refining Guild is located here, the houses here are not cheap.
However, Wei Qinghe's house is quite large.
You can hear Qiao Luoning's voice as soon as you enter the door.
"These things are essential; Junior Sister loves them."
Seeing such a large house, Qi Lan was dumbfounded.
"Sister Qinghe, when did you buy this house here?"
I wanted to say it wasn't cheap, but then I remembered that Wei Qinghe was not only the Lingzong's precious darling, but also had great abilities.
I just don't quite understand why I would buy a house here, since I don't live here often.
“Junior Sister always brings her whole family with her, which is inconvenient when living outside. She actually has houses in many places.” Qiao Luoning recalled that Wei Qinghe was just as naive as Qi Lan when she first came back.
The cultivators are all poor, and many of them don't choose to buy houses, so house prices are not high.
Junior Sister is the richest woman in the immortal sect; she won't lack spirit stones to buy a house.
These alchemists, who shouldn't be poor, simply couldn't imagine what it meant to have houses in so many places.
"Junior Sister, who is this?" Qi Cheng was becoming increasingly curious about the corpse puppet Xiao Tian.
His constant protection of Wei Qinghe gave off an indescribable feeling.
"This time, Senior Sister encountered a ghost cultivator..."
Wei Qinghe kept the story short and recounted what had happened.
"What? This is a corpse puppet?" Qi Lan was the youngest and had the least experience, so she was naturally frightened when she heard that it was a corpse puppet.
Wei Qinghe removed the disguise from the corpse puppet Xiao Tian, revealing his true appearance.
"This doesn't look like a corpse at all. It looks just like a living person." Qi Cheng found it incredible.
If he hadn't been told beforehand that it was a corpse puppet, he would definitely have mistaken it for a living person.
"Alright, everyone, you've all worked hard. Eat and drink your fill and get some rest." Wei Qinghe was still eager to study puppetry.
The group was exhausted; they were all nervous about the competition, each carrying their own mission and tasks.
Living outside is indeed not very safe; we take turns sleeping at night.
But now it's all good. Wei Qinghe and Qiao Luoning are coming, and it's still Wei Qinghe's house, so I can sleep soundly without worry.
After eating and drinking to their hearts' content, Wei Qinghe took a meal and led the kitten, Xiaobai, and the corpse puppet Xiao Tian back to the space.
Daoist Fuyue is still cultivating, and it seems he won't be finishing anytime soon.
The Corpse Puppet Xiao Tian felt no discomfort upon entering the space. Regardless of whether Wei Qinghe had left any runes on him, he maintained a distance that was neither too close nor too far from Wei Qinghe, as if it were intentional.
Wei Qinghe found a place a little further away from Daoist Fuyue and opened the scroll of puppetry.
As the puppetry technique was activated, a strange red light suddenly appeared.
Instantly, even the eyes of the corpse puppet Xiao Tian turned red.
