The Qi Refinement Realm ninth level hall servant who walked in after him felt the frighteningly terrifying outburst emanating from the puppet body, nearly causing him to collapse with fear.
The puppet was built using second-tier beast materials as its core!
Further inside, there might even be the spirit of a creature at the peak of the Foundation Establishment Realm, or possibly even the False Core Realm!
In this moment of wrath, even Hu Xiu, at the first level of the Foundation Establishment Realm, couldn’t withstand the fierce terror and was left utterly shocked.
As a ninth level cultivator of the Qi Refinement Realm, how could he endure it without being targeted by the puppet?
He was terrified for a moment.
Then he bared his teeth and shuddered, trying to appease the puppet. “Please calm down, senior! We mean no harm. Hu simply wished to make your acquaintance.”
While he tried to pacify the puppet, Hu Xiu looked on in fear and reverence.
At this time, in a room on the third floor of the hall…
A young disciple furrowed his brows and asked the elder in front of him, “Chief Officer, won’t we intervene? Are we going to let them continue to make a ruckus? Our hall’s reputation is at stake.”
Addressing his disciple’s concerns, the Chief Officer of the hall sipped his Spiritual Tea leisurely and responded, “Let them make a fuss. The louder the better. The trouble would be if they didn’t cause any.”
Seeing his disciple’s confusion, the Chief Officer said, “A true hall that poses no threats is unappealing. At least, the Hall Master despises it. But he could do nothing about it before.”
“But now, with neither the Hall Master, the Second Palace Master, nor the City Lord in the fairy city, he has finally revealed his ambition. That’s a good thing.” The youth seemed thoughtful, but also confused.
However, listening to his master’s words gave him goosebumps. Even though he didn’t quite understand, he could sense the hidden danger.
He swallowed. “But…” The youth’s face turned a little pale. “Now that so many cultivators have joined him, doesn’t that worry the Hall Master?”
The Chief Officer smirked. “It’s not that simple. The hearts of the people aren’t that easy to control.”
“With his method, it’s already a blessing from the fairy city if there’s no backlash.”
“Sometimes, eating too much can choke you to death and only benefit others.”
The Chief Officer of the Hall then called for all of the hall’s officials to stand down and to ignore the situation below.
On the second floor…
The puppet, staring at Hu Xiu with an ice-cold gaze, withdrew its power and said calmly, “I’m just a wandering Daoist. No need for acquaintances.”
Hu Xiu, who had been terrified by the puppet’s suppressive intimidation, took a while to recover. His face turned pale, but he forced himself to keep a smile.
He didn’t dare to utter another word and quickly processed the verification for the auction of the Foundation Establishment pills for the puppet.
He had to respectfully hand the certificate to the puppet and call it “senior”.
“Be careful next time.’
The puppet took the certificate and left after leaving those words behind, leaving Hu Xiu to sigh with relief. It was then that he realised his back was soaked with sweat and his feet felt weak.
Damn…
Hu Xiu cursed under his breath, his face full of embarrassment. He had truly lost face this time.
However, recalling the terrifying might of the puppet, Hu Xiu felt a twinge in his heart and couldn’t bring himself to think of revenge.
Perhaps he could regain his face if it was against a cultivator of the same level.
But against such a terrifying entity, seeking revenge would be seeking death!
This was something he was well aware of.
Elsewhere…
After leaving the hall, the puppet blended into the bustling crowd without looking back. After entering a small alley, he first cleansed his aura using the Green Wood Year Ring Skill, then activated a second-tier concealment talisman and a second-tier invisibility talisman.
His figure disappeared without a trace.
In the Dan Pavilion…
“He knew his place.”
Seeing Hu Xiu trained like a dog, Su Yu shook his head. This guy who only bullied the weak had it coming.
This would be a small interest collection for now.
The puppet didn’t return after leaving, but changed its appearance and rented a room at an inn elsewhere.
Despite having used the invisibility talisman and other tactics, who knew if someone was able to evade his detection and follow the puppet?
So, he decided not to let the puppet return for now.
As the date of the auction approached, disciples from some of the major clans and powers that had vanished due to the Golden Jade Fairy Gate reappeared, bringing life back to Bai Yue Fairy City.
During this period, Su Yu discovered that these people had turned up because some had obtained rewards from the Golden Jade Fairy Gate and wanted to auction them off at the five-yearly auction of the Spirit Hall.
Hearing this, Su Yu burst into anticipation, “I wonder what good things there will be?”
One day…
Su Yu, Yu Ke’er, Yu Qianqing, and Li Pingchang all headed to the Spirit Hall together.
On the way, Li Pingchang said in a low voice, “These past few days, I’ve heard a lot of news. Among them, there were rumors about why the Demonic Dao was interested in the Golden Jade Fairy Gate.”
Su Yu looked at Li Pingchang. From his investigations, Li Pingchang’s second-tier lower-grade Alchemy was indeed terrible, producing successful pills at a rate below 10% even for common second-tier lower-grade elixirs.
If it were him practicing Alchemy, he would definitely be making a significant loss.
It was for this reason that Li Pingchang had chosen not to open his own shop but had sought out Su Yu under the patronage of the Yu Family.
However, Li Pingchang had his strengths, such as networking and gathering information.
In only three short months, Li Pingchang had already met almost all the shopkeepers in the small market around the Dan Pavilion, and the shopkeepers of more than a dozen nearby stores were already on friendly terms with him. He was definitely a social butterfly.
As for Su Yu…
He had barely seen the shopkeeper next door even after such a long time running the Dan Pavilion.
There was the difference.
Su Yu asked in surprise, “What was the reason?”
Li Pingchang replied quietly, “I heard it was for a secret technique of the
Golden Jade Fairy Gate. This technique has a peculiar effect on the Demonic Dao and is said to neutralize the defects of practicing the Demonic Dao. Even in the Ancient Era, it was a special skill that attracted the interest of countless Demonic Dao practitioners!”
Su Yu felt something was wrong, and thought to himself, “To neutralize the defects of practicing the Demonic Dao? Is that even possible? What special skill is that powerful?”
Li Pingchang said, “I heard it’s called the Golden Cicada Method.”
He suddenly felt a chill. “Damn this weather, why did it suddenly get cold?”
Suppressing his shock, Su Yu asked, “Did they find it?”
Li Pingchang shook his head. “It doesn’t seem so. The righteous path is also looking for it, but nobody seems to have found it..”
