Chapter 38 Yao Chen's suspicion, carving puppets

Holy Spirit Long?
Hun Qing was stunned and turned his head mechanically.

Could it be that she really misunderstood?

But as long as he is not from the Spirit Clan, it will be fine. After all, the Spirit Clan was destroyed by the Soul Clan, and it was a completely extinct race. If a Spirit Clan member suddenly appeared, he must have a deep hatred for the Soul Clan. Even if he is her first friend, she will never trust him again.

Hun Qinghao heaved a sigh of relief and smiled, "Fortunately, Brother Linglong is not from the Ling Clan, otherwise Qing'er... Anyway, Qing'er doesn't want to be an enemy of Brother Linglong, so it's good like this now!"

Sheng Linglong's eyes were deep, "Yes, it's good like this now!"

But...he still wants better!

…………

After leaving the auction house separately from Sheng Linglong, Hun Qinghao returned to the courtyard of the Alchemist Guild.

Hun Qing was in a very good mood because he not only bought two treasures today but also met an old friend whom he hadn't seen for five years. He was humming a song as he entered the door.

After the Amethyst Winged Lion King who came in later closed the door, Yao Chen couldn't wait to come out of the ring.

"Xiao Qing'er, do you really believe what he said? He said he had nothing to do with the spirit race, and you foolishly believed him? What if he was lying to you and approached you for other purposes? I wonder what you would do then?"

Yao Chen had been holding these words in all the while, and now he finally blurted them out like pouring beans.

But Hun Qinghao didn't care, "Brother Linglong is very good, why shouldn't I believe it!"

"..." Yao Chen held his forehead with his hand, feeling exhausted and speechless for a moment.

This girl usually looks smart, but why is she so careless at a time like this?

I really don't understand what's going on in her mind!
Yao Chen gathered his strength and tried his best to calm himself down, saying earnestly: "Silly girl, you don't even know his background, yet you trust him so much. One day, he sells you out, and you still help him count the money!"

Hun Qinghao lowered his head and said stubbornly: "No, Brother Linglong would never do that!"

Yaochen: "..."

This stubborn girl almost made him faint from anger.

What's so good about that pretty boy that she trusts and protects him so much?

"Okay, let's not talk about this. Let's talk about something else. During your conversation today, every time you asked about his background, he avoided talking about it. He was obviously so secretive. There must be something wrong. Can't you see that?"

"So what? Maybe Brother Linglong has some unavoidable difficulties. Friends should trust each other, right?"

Nothing he said made sense, Yao Chen was so angry that he exploded, "Okay, okay, you two trust each other, but I'm the one who talked too much!"

After saying that, Yao Chen, who was full of anger, turned around and got into the ring. But speaking of which, did the Soul Clan leader know that his daughter trusted a pretty boy of unknown origin so much?

Emperor Hun Tian really didn't know about Sheng Linglong's affairs, otherwise he would definitely chase after him with his several-meter-long sickle and chop him down.

"Humph, why are you so fierce!" Hun Qinghao snorted at the black ring, "Brother Linglong has never offended him, why does he dislike Brother Linglong!"

"Um... Master, I also think that there is something wrong with your brother Linglong." The Amethyst Winged Lion King, who had listened to the conversation between Hun Qinghao and Yao Chen not far away, suddenly raised his hand and said in a low voice.

Hun Qinghao glared and threw a small object over, "You monster, what do you know!" The Amethyst Winged Lion King dodged, muttering to himself.

He didn't understand human rules, but he felt that what Yao Chen said made sense, and he always felt that there was an aura from Sheng Ling Long that made him feel uncomfortable.

The master's soul power is so strong, don't you feel something is wrong?

After hearing what Yao Chen and the Amethyst Winged Lion King said, Hun Qing's good mood was gone. She sat down at the table, took out the thousand-year-old soul-guiding wood that she had bought at the auction, condensed a carving knife with the power of her soul, and began to carve on the wood carefully.

As the soul carving knife fell, the surface of the ancient wood that had left the auction house helpless was actually scratched.

"When I was traveling across the continent, I had heard of the Soul-Guiding Wood, but I had never seen it, nor had I heard of its effects. Xiao Qing'er, do you know how to use the Soul-Guiding Wood?"

When Yao Chen saw Hun Qinghao carving the soul-guiding wood, he couldn't hold back and ran out of the ring to ask.

Hun Qinghao didn't even raise his head, "Don't forget, we just had a fight, go wherever you want, don't bother me!"

Yao Chen said righteously: "What kind of quarrel? I was just trying to persuade you with kind words. If you don't listen, then forget it, but how can you slander me?"

"Then who was the one who went back into the ring in anger just now?" Hun Qinghao raised his head, turned the soul carving knife towards him, and spoke softly.

"Okay, I won't talk about your brother Linglong. Tell me the function of this soul-guiding wood." With a dry laugh, Yao Chen pushed away her soul carving knife and looked at her with curiosity in his eyes.

"Hmph, I won't bother with you." With a proud snort, Hun Qinghao drew an outline on the soul-guiding wood and explained, "Our Soul Clan's supreme skill, the seventh level of soul-stealing, requires the use of puppets carved from the soul-guiding wood for its accompanying fighting skills."

"The Soul-Guiding Tree grows in an extremely cold place, but its texture is extremely solid. Only the secret method of my Soul Clan, coupled with the powerful power of the soul, can leave a mark on it."

"These puppets must be carved by the operator himself. The older the soul-guiding wood is, the more powerful the carved puppet will be. The best soul-guiding wood I used before was given to me by my father, and it was only a thousand years old."

"As for the ten thousand year old soul-guiding wood, this is the first time I've seen one, so I have to carve two puppets that I'm most satisfied with this time!"

"I see." Yao Chen had a new understanding of the Soul-Guiding Wood after hearing this. He then asked curiously, "What do you want to carve these two puppets into? Do you have any reference?"

"Hmm..." Hun Qinghao stopped carving, propped up his chin with one hand, thought for a moment and said, "In the past, I carved according to the characters in the storybooks. This time, I might refer to the people around me, such as my father and myself."

"Your father is so powerful, can you carve him completely?"

"That's why I'm worried about who to carve the other puppet into!"

After being discouraged for a while, Hun Qinghao cheered up again and laid out the puppets he had carved before. He pointed at these lifelike puppets and smiled proudly at Yao Chen, "How about it, my carvings are pretty good, right?"

"It's really exquisite, vivid and lifelike!" Looking at the sixteen puppets on the table, Yao Chen praised them generously.

Hun Qinghao accepted the compliment without any guilt, his face was full of confidence, "That's right, each of them is carved by me with great care, and each has its own story behind it."

Yao Chen: "The story in the book?"

"Yes." Hun Qinghao nodded seriously, and then said something shocking, "The storybook we are reading may be a true story from another world. Anyway, I believe it."

Otherwise, how could she have traveled through time and space? How could she have come to the world of Dou Po Cangqiong?
