Chapter 341 - Wipe Out (1/2)

“Bang! Bang!”

With two loud bang, the surrounding trees trembled. The Qingluan and Ziyun’er were once again bashed up. Although they had the strength of the pre-Nascent Soul Realm, in front of this copper man, they were defenseless.

“Be careful!”

As the copper man was about to kill the two sisters, Xiao Chen used the Immortal-override Steps and blocked in front of them.

“Ice Dragon!”

Xiao Chen’s two palms pushed, and in an instant, roars of dragon shook the sky, the temperature around them suddenly dropped. The things within the thirty feet together with the copper man were frozen right away.

Through the layer of ice, Xiao Chen finally took a clear look at the copper man. His eyes were lifeless, and there was a “Gold” inscription on his forehead, between his eyebrows was a faint activity of talisman. It was a kind of puppet, but not a Corpse Puppet. It did not have that evil aura of a Corpse Puppet on it.

Seeing that the puppet had stopped moving, Xiao Chen finally let out a sigh of relief and turned to look at Qingluan and Ziyun’er. “Are you hurt badly?”

Qingluan wiped the blood off her mouth and said, “I’m fine…” then she yelled suddenly, “Be careful, my Lord!” and rushed up right after.

With a loud bang, the layer of ice broke. Xiao Chen hurriedly turned around, and without thinking, he smashed out the Cyan Dragon Roars. However, the puppet bypassed him in an instant yet again and went gave Qingluan a blow. The blow hit on Qingluan’s abdomen causing her to spew out blood as she flew backward.

“Sister!” Ziyun’er cried, and hastily summoned her Bloodied Violet Blade. However, before she could hold it, she was being punched in the abdomen as well. She too vomited blood and flew out, breaking the four-arms-length big tree behind her into half.

Xiao Chen seemed to understand something. This puppet would only attack the girls and not him. He shouted, “It does not attack me! Leave now!”

The girls then cast a hand spell and were about to make their escape in the northwest direction when the copper man teleported over. It hit them with an incredible force and they flew out again, the gravels on the pathway splattered.

“What is this…” Xiao Chen’s eyes were shocked, and the Blood Lotus Demon Blade was smashed, and the blood-red knife was as long as 100 feet. In this dust, there is quite a power to destroy the earth. However, I saw that the copper man’s arm was lifted and slammed, and Xiao’s Nascent Soul’s power could not cause any harm to him.

In a blink of an eye, the copper man once again got around Xiao Chen. Its two fists were like a meteor as they hit at the heads of two lying in the pile of stones. If this fist went down, the two sisters were dead for sure!

At the most critical moment, a powerful voice could be heard from the top, “Gold Puppet! Stop!”

The wind stopped, and the copper man suddenly stopped moving. The left and right fists were only three inches away from the forehead of the two sisters. The two girls looked at the golden fists in front of them blankly. Their life was hanging by the thread just a second ago.

Xiao Chen quickly lifted the two sisters and looked up at the top of the mountain road. In the gentle breeze stood a middle-aged man with greyish sideburns, and his sleeves sway with the wind. The middle-aged man was shocked and happy at the same time. Four disciples of Xiao family followed behind.

“Father!” “Chen’er!”

The two voices sounded at the same time. The father and the son ran towards each other and embraced. Although they were only apart for a year, Xiao Chen had experienced numerous lives and deaths, and it had seemed like a decade.

“Chen’er, you have grown taller. Let me take a good look at you, how have you been?” Xiao Yifan was so excited that his eyes were teary. He looked at the boy who had now grown into a man, he did not know what to say anymore.

“I have been fine, very fine…” Xiao Chen replied as he started to choke with sobs. In the Violet Manor, who else would care for him like his father… Suddenly, he remembered the thrilling scene that happened just now, then he turned and pointed the motionless puppet, saying, “Daddy, what’s that?”

Xiao Yifan also looked over and muttered, “Gold Puppet has never been like this before; what is going on today…” Then he looked at the two sisters and said, “How are your injuries?”

Qingluan and Ziyun’er looked at each other and shook their heads together. Xiao Yifan turned his head and asked Xiao Chen, “Chen’er, who are these two girls?”

“They are the friends I made in the Violet Manor.”

Xiao Yifan looked at the two sisters and bowed. “Apologies to you two. Please come with me to my humble house. I’ll get someone to heal you.”

Qingluan and Ziyun’er bowed and said, “Headmaster Xiao, you’re too kind.”

On the way, Xiao Chen learned that his father had temporarily served as the chieftain and asked, “Oh right, father, where did this puppet come from?”

Xiao Yifan smiled and said, “This is a long story. Not long after you left, a girl in white came. The girl did not say who she was and gave me five puppets of the five elements. Along with them, she passed some control techniques to me, saying that these puppets can identify the enemy on their own. She told me to put them in the different corners of Xiao family for defense purposes…” Then he paused and turn to the girls and said, “I’m very sorry.”

Qingluan and Ziyun’er frowned deeply and kept quiet.

Xiao Chen took a deep breath. The last time the Xiao family was almost destroyed by Skygale Sect, the girl in white who had such powerful puppets. In this Human World, the only person he could think of was Bai Susu. But why would she help him again and again? Who was she…
