After 100 years of leatherworking, I have become a giant in the magic sect.

Chapter 46: More Demonic Than Demons
"嘤嘤~~"

The soft arms gently shook an old man's shoulders, and the beautiful face rested on his shoulders. The beautiful eyes carefully hid the extreme disgust, and the red lips opened slightly and said: "Old man, why are you here in Nanzhu Peak? Let's go back to the main peak. Rufeng is also on the main peak, and he is very filial to you."

The old man was Master Shi.

The beautiful woman was his Taoist partner—Bi Huaiyi.

Master Shi said, "This place is close to the leather workshop. I am old now, so I want to come and see if there are any talented disciples."

Bi Huaiyi said: "You should just enjoy yourself peacefully, and leave these matters to Rufeng."

Master Shi was silent.

Bi Huaiyi hooked her arm around his neck and continued, "Why don't you give your little inheritance to Rufeng?

I know. That inheritance is very important to you.

So if you pass it on to Rufeng sooner, you can breathe a sigh of relief sooner, right?

I am thinking about you too."

The beautiful woman acted coquettishly, but Master Shi remained silent.

Finally, Bi Huaiyi seemed to be tired of it, and walked out of the cave, looking outside, and snorted in his heart: "Old man, you keep those things very closely, I don't know if you have passed them to anyone in advance.

Could it be Lu Hong?
No, if it was passed to Lu Hong, he would have said it long ago, and his attitude would not be like this.

He really is holding it in and hiding it!

If I don't tell you about it, will you take it to the coffin and leave? Damn old thing! Maybe it's time to use some tricks, how about poisoning?"

"Song Song."

The young elder in white robes looked at Song Yan, pointed, as if thinking, and then smiled, "Song Yan!"

Song Yan also recognized the elder, clasped his fists and saluted, saying, "Congratulations, Senior Brother Gu, for becoming an elder!"

He really didn't expect that the white-robed elder who led the team out to capture the servants was Gu Rufeng.

The white-robed elder smiled and said, "There are few talented people in our Shadow Play Peak now, so I was allowed to be the elder. Junior Brother Song has now entered the Mystical Realm, which is also a cause for celebration."

After a brief greeting, Gu Rufeng ignored Song Yan. After all, a young man who had just started practicing Xuan was still far away from him.

The group left the market gate of Nanzhu Peak, and soon, thousands of cavalrymen gathered. In front were the elite, and behind were many ox carts carrying cages. The leader clasped his fists and said, "General Dong Tongshan of the Great Jin Dynasty, under the order of our emperor, is waiting for the immortal master's orders."

Gu Rufeng said: "Come with us to arrest the man and bring him back."

After saying that, he raised his hand and summoned a shadow puppet boat.

The disciples boarded the boat one after another.

The empty boat flew up and went away, while the cavalry followed closely behind it.

Time flies, and several days have passed.

Song Yan still remembered that he was recruited in this way, but he didn't expect that in the blink of an eye, he would also be recruited.

The so-called recruitment basically means throwing all the young men and women caught along the way into cages, and then taking them back for testing.

Those whose aptitude can be detected will become disciples directly, and those who cannot be detected will be thrown into various service rooms and then undergo a second test.

The reason why the Puppet Sect is recruiting so many new members is because of the heavy casualties.

This is not the first time we have recruited new members this year, and it is not even the only batch of new members.

While Gu Rufeng was leading the team to plunder, there was also an elder from the Demon Sect leading a team to capture people on the other side.

The Puppet Sect is in urgent need of a large amount of fresh blood.

There was nothing Song Yan could do about this kind of thing. He could only adapt to the local customs and go with the flow.

But there was one thing that he was very concerned about.

He was deeply impressed by the "dispute over inheritance" that year.

The two parties in the "dispute over inheritance" were Lu Hong and Gu Rufeng.

Now, Lu Hong was captured by the ghost cultivator and went to a small dark room to make shadow puppets. Gu Rufeng can be said to be the strongest of the remaining leather makers of the younger generation.

But Master Shi handed over his robe and bowl to him.

In the past few years, Gu Rufeng must have tried every possible way to dig out Master Shi's legacy.

After all, in Gu Rufeng's view, he no longer has any competitors, and Master Shi will definitely pass on his legacy to him.

But the result is definitely no.

What would Gu Rufeng think?
Perhaps he was not sure whether Master Shi had passed on his mantle in advance, but he was very likely to do whatever it took to find out.

for example
Search for souls.

All the leather craftsmen or prospective leather craftsmen in Linglong Valley’s Strange Beast Association at that time could have become his target.

Of course, before searching the soul, he would use his power to intimidate others. After all, he was an elder and his grandfather was also an elder.

Although Song Yan was only at the first level of Lianxuan, he was no exception.

This was almost an inevitable situation. Song Yan could almost imagine what would happen next.

Returning to Nanzhu Peak, he would most likely be taken in for questioning, and then detained, with the threat of "soul search" to oppress him, which was no different from "violent interrogation". He would have to use force to escape, and in the process he would inevitably cause quite a stir, and then things would go completely out of control.

While Song Yan was thinking about these things, he lowered his head and did not look at the white-robed elder in front of the shadow puppet boat.

However, he had already deeply felt the "cause and effect" between himself and Gu Rufeng.

This "cause and effect" started with Master Shi and cannot be broken.

If Master Shi had not died, he might have protected him, but this protection would cause problems.

If Master Shi has passed away, Gu Rufeng will definitely do his best to find out where his legacy is.

In the distance, Gu Rufeng was holding a communication jade in his hand, seemingly communicating with someone.

After the exchange, his face turned livid, his eyes showed resentment, he snorted coldly, and cursed: "Old thing!"

Song Yan's pupils condensed slightly, and he understood: It seems that the teacher is still alive
However, he has to find an opportunity to kill Gu Rufeng.

Although the truth has not been revealed, the evil karma is too deep and we have to take action.

Since he has inherited Master Shi's legacy, he has to take over and deal with all these causes and consequences.

The recruitment was successfully completed.

A group of people returned to Shadow Peak.

Iron cages were carried to the top of the mountain.

After Gu Rufeng said goodbye to everyone, he left alone.

It was deep winter and the sky was covered with light snow.

It was dusk again, and in the distance, a demon was rising in the cold wind.

Gu Rufeng mounted a blood-blade elk shadow puppet and flew quickly without paying attention to the terrain. When he reached the top of the delphinium forest, the shadow puppet even walked on the treetops.

Obviously, he was going back to the main peak of Shadow Peak at this time.

Suddenly, he seemed to sense something and turned his head slightly, but he only saw snow falling with the wind and nothing else.

"Ok?"

Gu Rufeng frowned, thought for a moment, and quickly controlled the shadow puppet to fall into the delphinium forest.

It's too conspicuous at a high place. If you encounter an enemy, you will be a sitting duck.

Although this white-robed elder is young, he has great vigilance and combat experience. Although he cannot be sure whether there is something wrong with his perception just now, the fighting on the battlefield has also made him develop sufficient caution.

As soon as he landed, he didn't care whether there were enemies or not, or whether he had sensed it wrongly. He immediately rolled down from the Blood Blade Elk Shadow Skin and took out a shield weapon.

The Blood-Blade Elk is a mid-level monster. Due to its physique and blood, it will always be stronger than a cultivator of a certain level.

The shield weapon can protect him, allowing him to watch the Blood Blade Elk fighting with the enemy. Then, he can take the opportunity to use other weapons and talismans to attack.

This is the correct way for a puppet master to fight: release the puppets, protect himself, take advantage of every opportunity, weaken the enemy, and kill them with one blow.

Just as Gu Rufeng took out the shield weapon and released his perception, the perception that had expanded by dozens of feet instantly touched a huge black shadow.

Gu Rufeng was so frightened that he almost exploded.

what is that?
It has three heads, and its body is covered with armor. There are thorns on the armor, and outside the thorns are two small wings. Each feather in the wings is as sharp as a steel blade.
These images made Gu Rufeng inexplicably think of common low-level monster images such as "two-headed wolf", "white thorn deer", and "iron-feathered bird".

These low-level monsters are not scary, but when they are strangely combined together, they become scary.

demon?
Have demons invaded here?
But, what kind of monster is this!!!
The moment he sensed the strange demon, he suddenly felt that the demon seemed to be laughing.

All three heads smiled.

For an instant.

Whoosh!
Black light flashed.

The demon appeared in front of him across dozens of feet. A hard giant hand broke through the air and the whistling sound made his brain buzz and go blank. Then he felt his face being tightly grasped by those rough five fingers. His neck tightened, his legs were suspended in the air, and he kicked up subconsciously.

Before he could react, he felt an extreme pain in the center of his eyebrows.

"predict"

Gu Rufeng opened his mouth, but no word "no" came out. He became a soulless walking corpse, with his struggling arms and kicking legs hanging down, swaying in the cold wind of the forest.

But in a moment, those out-of-focus eyes regained their brilliance.

Full of murderous look!
The demon put him down and whispered, "Go to the evil place, and then... commit suicide."

Without saying a word, Gu Rufeng took control of the Blood Blade Elk again and headed west.

Tonight, he will die in a dangerous place and then be possessed by a ghost.

The Puppet Sect and the Ghost Cultivators have always had a grudge against each other, so one less will not make too much, and one more will not make too much either.
