Daoying

Chapter 684 Puppet Contest

Inside the invisible passage, the atmosphere froze and it was so quiet that the only sound that could be heard was the sound of spiritual energy surging.

A figure slowly emerged in the silence. It was an old man in a black robe. He was tall and slender, as if he had merged into the endless darkness outside.

The old man's black robe was embroidered with an intricate pattern of yin-yang fish, which seemed to be spinning and swimming.

"Good! Good! Good!"

The old man suppressed his anger and murderous intent and said, "You are the first one who dared to step on the face of Yin Yang Gui Sect in the past three hundred years!"

Xie Huan felt a pair of cold eyes piercing through the air, staring at him.

"Master Yan, you are joking. I entered the cave with the permission of Master Lie. This is Master Lie's token."

Xie Huan was neither humble nor arrogant. He took out the token and threw it out.

The token turned into a stream of light, passed through the cave entrance, and came in front of the old man, but was blocked by an invisible energy and exploded to pieces with a "bang".

"Humph!"

The old man snorted heavily and asked in a cold voice: "Who are you?!"

“It’s hard to tell you.”

Xie Huan sighed, walked out of the cave, met the old man's eyes, and then smiled politely.

The old man was none other than Yan Wuya, the leader of the Yin Yang Puppet Sect. After receiving Lie Qiong's message from thousands of miles away, he hurried back and headed straight for the Dihuo Xuanshui Cave.

I didn't expect the sword domain to be triggered so immediately.

Who could have thought that this forbidden area of ​​his own would be restricted by the other party? When the sword came down, he was stunned. With a blow of that magnitude, whether he took it or not, the passage outside the cave would be destroyed.

Fortunately, the opponent stopped the sword, thus avoiding a disaster.

Seeing Xie Huan's demeanor and temperament at this moment, coupled with his previous understanding of the Sword Domain, and what Lie Qiong said about the Great Saint Body, Yan Wuya felt mixed emotions.

A person like this could never be an unknown person. He certainly had his own reasons for not wanting to reveal his name, but there could be some conspiracy or intrigue involved.

Now is a time of great turmoil, and we must not be careless.

Thinking of this, Yan Wuya's eyes flashed with determination. He waved his black robe and said coldly: "It's really hard to tell you. That's called strength. It's not convenient here. Follow me outside!"

"It's better not to."

Xie Huan said respectfully: "I will leave Qianji Island now, and I am willing to pay the corresponding remuneration."

"Is this a matter of reward?! This is the forbidden land of our Yin Yang Puppet Sect. You can come and go as you please. How will the world view our Yin Yang Puppet Sect in the future?"

“It doesn’t matter how others see you, what matters is how you see yourself.”

"You are talking nonsense! Stop talking nonsense. If you don't give me an explanation today, you can't leave!"

Yan Wuya was so angry that his eyes widened and he pointed at Xie Huan and shouted.

"In that case—"

Xie Huan smiled slightly and calmly made a "please" gesture: "Then let's spar here."

"You want to threaten me with the Earth Fire Mysterious Water Cave?"

Yan Wuya's eyes turned cold, and he suppressed his anger and said, "Whatever you think, since you are not willing to give in, I don't need to accommodate you anymore. If you want to fight, then fight here. Otherwise, I won't accompany you."

Xie Huan put his hands behind his back and looked away slightly, as if he was too lazy to pay attention to you.

"you!--"

Yan Wuya was so angry that he was shaking all over. He knew very well that if a fight started here, the Dihuo Xuanshui Cave would be destroyed.

"Okay! Brat, do you think I can do nothing to you like this?"

A resolute light flashed across Yan Wuya's face, and he laughed in anger: "If you have the guts, stay here forever!"

After saying that, he suddenly threw away his black robe, sat cross-legged in the air, formed seals with his hands, and started practicing directly.

He made up his mind to fight Xie Huan to the end. He didn't believe Xie Huan could stay with him forever. As long as he left, he would catch up with him.

As he formed seals with his hands, the void behind him twisted and two puppets of very different sizes emerged.

One of the statues is small in size, with translucent skin, like a woman, with silver hair fluttering in the wind. The most peculiar thing is that what are rotating in the woman's eye sockets are not eyeballs, but two copper bells engraved with talismans, and the joints of her body are all rotating copper coins.

The other one is a giant scorpion covered with black scales, with its tail raised high, flashing the cold light of its tail needle. A large bronze tripod is fused on its back, with Samadhi True Fire and hot gas coming out of it.

As soon as the two puppets appeared, their aura locked onto Xie Huan.

Now it was Xie Huan's turn to have a headache. If a powerful late-stage Spirit Transformation expert, who was also a puppeteer, could depend on him, it would be a real problem.

He glanced at the two puppets and came up with an idea. He said, "I haven't seen Sect Master Yan for a long time. He was one of the two great puppeteers at that time. I also have a puppet. I wonder if Sect Master Yan is interested in a competition? If my puppet can win by chance, the matter here will be written off. If Sect Master Yan's puppet wins, I will tell you my name and family background and let you deal with me as you wish."

Yan Wuya suddenly opened his eyes, and the cold light in his eyes shot out like a sharp blade. His face turned red with anger, but there was a twisted smile on the corner of his mouth: "Haha! Good boy! You really made me laugh! You actually said that you can release a puppet to defeat my puppet. You, you are very good! If your puppet can win, I will chop off your head directly!"

"Isn't this bad..."

Xie Huan showed an embarrassment on his face and spoke hesitantly.

"Stop talking nonsense! Come, let's see the truth!"

Yan Wuya's eyes widened with anger, and he roared loudly. His figure and the two puppets turned into streams of light and flew out of the forbidden area like an arrow.

Xie Huan's eyes flashed, and without hesitation he turned into lightning and followed closely behind.

The two of them arrived above Qianji Island in an instant. The wind was howling, making their robes rustle.

Yan Wuya folded his hands in front of him and stared at Xie Huan coldly: "Boy, release the puppet."

Xie Huan looked calm, and looked at Yan Wuya in a neither humble nor arrogant manner: "I have another question. What if the puppet war ends in a tie?"

"You win!"

Yan Wuya waved his hand impatiently, a look of disgust on his face, not wanting to listen to another word Xie Huan said.

He couldn't wait to teach this arrogant man a lesson. The anger in his heart was like a volcano that had been suppressed for a long time and was ready to explode at any time.

"If that's the case, then I'm sorry."

Xie Huan smiled slightly and waved his hand, and Kizaru appeared in front of him, with his burly arms folded across his chest, staring straight ahead.

The moment Yan Wuya saw Kizaru, his pupils shrank drastically, and his original impatience and disdain disappeared instantly, replaced by a hint of shock. Then, his eyes emerged with pupil skills, staring at Kizaru, the shock in his eyes became more and more intense, his mouth gradually opened so wide that a duck egg could be stuffed in, and he let out a shocked cry: "Ah, this..."
