Chapter 451 - Chapter 451: Chapter 148 Puppet Guild Plan (2/2)
“since lin daoyou has already killed one of their people, you should disguise yourself now and focus on your cultivation until this matter blows over.”
after listening, lin jing spoke directly, saying,
“don’t worry, i’m not afraid of these puppet cultivators…”
zhao linxing then continued,
“since lin daoyou was able to kill that golden core ninth layer cultivator, i believe you definitely have a way to deal with them.”
“but they are numerous and strong, and they like to send puppets to make stealth attacks at night the most.”
“that is the most terrifying…”
“therefore, lin daoyou must still be very careful…”
xu ye also spoke up at this time,
“lin daoyou, do you need my help…”
lin jing shook his head and said,
“no need, xu daoyou, i appreciate your kindness.”
helpless, xu ye sighed and said,
“if that’s the case, then you must be careful, lin daoyou. it’s best to continue acting in this disguise, don’t change back to your original appearance, at least it can save you a lot of trouble…”
upon hearing this, lin jing indeed found the advice sound.
although lin jing was not afraid of those puppet cultivators, facing them was always troublesome, so it would be better to keep the disguise and save a lot of trouble.
afterward, lin jing said to xu ye,
“alright…”
“from now on, i will use this disguise.”
……
while lin jing, xu ye, and zhao linxing were talking,
at this moment, on another mountaintop, the puppet guild leader, together with several other members of the puppet guild, were gathered and discussing something.
“are you sure that you saw the cultivator who killed my brother returning?” one of the grey-robed cultivators asked another yellow pine cultivator in front of him.
“yes, guild leader,” the yellow pine cultivator replied with a bow.
these puppet cultivators were all very respectful to the guild leader.
because…
most of the puppetry techniques they practiced were handed down by this guild leader.
besides, some of the cultivators’ puppets were also gifts from the leader.
the puppet guild leader was very intelligent. he always welcomed anyone who wanted to join the puppet guild and taught them the methods for controlling puppets.
moreover, when imparting puppetry techniques, the guild leader also made it clear that he would hold back some of the art and that he could easily control others’ puppets.
those who joined the puppet guild voluntarily, other than those who were truly desperate…
the others, even outside, were not easy to deal with and thought of plundering first whenever they lacked spirit stones.
however, now in the devouring spirit blood realm, their own cultivation techniques were too noisy.
so they had to find other means.
and practicing puppetry technique was the most suitable cultivation technique.
firstly…
puppetry technique was much easier to practice than other techniques, and secondly, they liked the way the puppet guild operated.
although part of the spoils they obtained would be taken away by the guild leader,
what was left was enough for their use.
indeed, the puppet guild leader could control others’ puppets, but as long as no one was attempting to confront him directly, he actually wouldn’t randomly control others’ puppets.
after all…
the stronger the puppet guild, the more resources the guild leader would obtain.
and for the cultivators under the guild leader, it was easier to understand; these people only needed to hand over part of the plunder to the guild leader, while the rest was enough for them to survive on.
otherwise, if they did not practice puppetry technique to plunder from others, they might very well become blood corpses themselves.
joining the puppet guild, aside from a somewhat unpleasant reputation, was far better than other cultivators in all other aspects.
as for the reputation…
when you can barely survive, what do you need reputation for?
it was for these reasons that these puppet cultivators had such infamous reputations.
……
then, the guild leader continued and asked,
“where is that person now?”
“one of our guild members saw him being found by zhao linxing, and he followed zhao linxing…”
“he’s probably been noticed by xu ye.”
“xu ye…” the puppet guild leader frowned and muttered.
next, the puppet guild leader continued to ask,
“is anyone following him now?”
“yes…” the yellow pine cultivator nodded.
“we have a guild member who has been watching at the foot of the mountain where xu ye is located, keeping an eye on it…”
“guild leader, what do we do next?”
“do we wait for him to come down and then strike to kill him?”
the puppet guild leader knitted his brows and said,
“my brother was a golden core ninth layer cultivator, yet this person was able to easily defeat him; his strength must be extraordinary, and his cultivation technique causes little noise, not fearing the blood corpses at all.”
“of course, i am not so foolish as to confront him head-on.”
“what does the guild leader mean?” the yellow pine cultivator asked, puzzled.
the puppet guild leader replied,
“only at night can our puppet guild truly demonstrate our strength.”
“notify the others in the guild and say that i want to select a few people to ambush this individual at night. i will reward each participant with two hundred thousand midium grade spirit stones.”
“and moreover…”
“if any puppets get damaged during this operation, i will take responsibility myself…”
