"Don't, don't kill us!"
The four of them fell to the ground and vomited blood as they desperately begged for mercy.
Yang Qingxuan said, "Stand up and speak properly. Who wants to kill you? Look at you, you're like mud. Killing you will only dirty my hands. "
"Yes, yes, we're mud. Sir, please don't dirty your hands." The four of them were relieved when they heard that he wouldn't kill them. They stood up in trepidation.
Yang Qingxuan got straight to the point. "Where did you learn your puppet arts?"
One of them said, "Our Clear Gorge is a sect famous for controlling puppets. Everyone knows about it. Sir, are you not from around here?"
The four of them were bitter. They knew that they had kicked an iron plate this time. He was so young and possessed such terrifying strength. He was most likely not someone from the northern part of the continent.
The Clear Gorge was indeed a famous sect in the northern part. Otherwise, their only teleportation formation wouldn't be in the gorge.
There were only two situations in which teleportation formations could be established. The first was by a large sect to make it convenient for their own sect. The second was by a merchant association to make money.
The entire northern part of the Blacknight Continent was relatively isolated, so the effect of making money was limited. Merchant associations weren't willing to set up shop here, so there was only one teleportation formation in the Clear Gorge.
Two years ago, Hua Ling met Yang Qingxuan in the Heavenly Consort Academy. She planned to establish a short-distance teleportation formation in the Cangnan Country and set up a branch of the Daluo Merchant Association. But because of the battle on Little Flowerfruit Mountain, Yang Qingxuan's whereabouts were unknown, and Hua Ling had lost her reason to continue staying. So, she left swiftly, and the matter of setting up the teleportation formation and branch was left unsettled.
"Oh? A sect that controls puppets? I'm very interested in your puppet arts. "Yang Qingxuan smiled." Can I borrow it for a look? "
The four of them looked at each other. One of them said, "This is a secret of the sect. It can't be divulged. Please don't make things difficult for us."
Yang Qingxuan gave them a thumbs up. "You've got guts. Then I won't make things difficult for you. Go to hell."
As he spoke, he raised his hand, and a powerful cyclone burst out from his palm, enveloping the four of them. The force of his palm did not press down on them. Instead, it spun continuously, like a meat grinder, and slowly pressed down.
The four of them were scared out of their wits. They hurriedly begged, "Spare us, spare us, we'll tell you, we'll tell you everything, we'll tell you everything we know."
Two of them even took the jade slips and held them up high. "The Puppet Technique is here. Please spare our lives, sir!"
Yang Qingxuan said coldly, "But this will make things difficult for you, and I don't like to force people."
"Not at all, not at all. Sir, you didn't force us. We did it of our own free will, right? "One of them hurriedly said. His eyes stared at the slowly descending vortex as he trembled in fear.
"Yes, yes, we did it willingly. We did it willingly. We didn't force ourselves in the slightest." The other three hurriedly echoed.
Yang Qingxuan released his five fingers, dispersing the cyclone. At the same time, he grabbed the two jade slips and placed them in front of his forehead. He scanned them with his divine sense.
The four of them stood to the side quietly, not daring to make a sound or move.
After a while, Yang Qingxuan frowned and stared at the sky in a daze. He seemed to be in deep thought.
"This' Advanced Puppet Technique 'doesn't seem to be complete, right?" Yang Qingxuan suddenly asked, causing the four of them to tremble in fear.
One of them said embarrassedly, "This is the 'Advanced Puppet Technique' that only the sect's elders and protectors can learn. There are indeed many things that we don't understand. We don't know if it's complete, but … the Sect Leader's puppet seems to be stronger than ours."
After this person finished speaking, his eyes flashed with a trace of cunning, but it disappeared in a flash.
The other three lowered their heads. They immediately understood his intentions. He wanted to lure this person to the sect and let the Sect Leader deal with him.
"Oh?"
The corner of Yang Qingxuan's mouth raised into a smile. He stared at the four of them and said, "Are you sure the Sect Leader's puppet is stronger?"
The four of them nodded their heads and said one after another, "Sure, a hundred percent sure."
Yang Qingxuan nodded and said, "I'll have to trouble the four of you to lead the way. Yang Qingxuan is here to pay a visit to Clear Canyon."
Since he was already in the northern part of the continent, he wasn't far from Cangnan Country. He wasn't in a hurry. Since there was something he was interested in in Clear Canyon, he might as well take a detour.
The four of them were surprised and happy. They secretly thought, "So this person is called Yang Qingxuan. He actually dared to enter the canyon. I'll definitely make sure he doesn't return. I'll take revenge for what happened just now!"
… …
Half a day later, Clear Canyon exploded with an earth-shattering sound. A large amount of Desolate Qi spread out, causing the mountains to split open and the vegetation to wither.
In a flat valley, an old man with white hair draped over his shoulders was constantly forming hand seals. In front of him, there was a giant that was five people tall. Its entire body was green, and its aura was like a mountain.
The giant roared, and a strong light burst out from its body, causing the space to shake and the mountains to shake.
At this moment, the Spiritual Qi of Heaven and Earth became extremely chaotic. It was as if the aura of the entire mountain range was absorbed by the giant and condensed into its palm.
"Taiyue Tribe's Innate Skill — Qi Condensed Mountains!"
The old man shouted and slammed his palms down. The Taiyue Tribe giant's eyes shone with a sharp light as it slammed its palms down. Countless shadows of giant mountains appeared and revolved under the palm technique.
It was the first time most of the Clear Canyon's disciples had seen their Sect Master use such a skill. They were extremely surprised.
"The Taiyue Tribe's puppet is indeed terrifying. That brat actually dared to challenge us. I'm afraid he'll be crushed into meat paste."
"Who told him to have designs on our Clear Canyon? He deserves to die."
"He even dared to threaten our Sect Protectors. After he dies, we'll make him into a puppet as a warning to others."
The four Protectors exchanged glances with each other as they listened to the mocking words coming from all around them. They couldn't help but laugh as their eyes flashed with resentment. They hoped that Yang Qingxuan wouldn't die so quickly so that they wouldn't miss out on the fun.
One of them sneered and said, "I'm researching how to make a living puppet. I'm lacking a sample."
The so-called living puppet was to make a living person into a puppet. The method was cruel and the process was terrifying. It was too horrible to look at.
Yang Qingxuan's figure flickered a few times in the void under the Taiyue Tribe's attack. He didn't panic, but there was a strange look in his eyes. "The puppet can use martial skills?"
A scene that he had seen before suddenly appeared in his mind. During the Five Nations Grand Tournament, Xuan Tianji had attached a strand of his consciousness to Chang Yu and summoned his Martial Soul, Yesterday, to turn the Green-horned Barbaric Bull's power into a baby.
After this scene appeared in his mind, he couldn't get it out of his mind.
Under the pressure of this extremely powerful palm technique, his robes fluttered in the wind. There was even a faint golden glow on his skin, and mercury flowed in his blood vessels. However, his expression was somewhat distracted, and he said to himself in a daze, "Perhaps … I can also give it a try!"
When he thought of this, his eyes lit up with uncontrollable excitement. He licked his lips and chuckled. Then, his figure flashed and disappeared, leaving only afterimages behind.
