Chapter 462 - 464: Be Reborn Sooner
Chapter 462: Chapter 464: Be Reborn Sooner
The high slope was suddenly enveloped in azure light, as sturdy and tenacious light tendrils burst forth, intertwining to form what seemed like azure, glowing scale pythons!!
These azure light tendrils, sprouting from the soil, quickly grew as dense as a lush jungle, completely trapping the Bronze Hammer Heavy Slave Puppet inside.
The Light Tendril Python Grass, it turned out, formed a colossal cage.
The Heavy Slave Puppet indeed possessed boundless strength, but no matter how it hammered, it couldn’t break through these tough plants.
Trapped, the ice and frost female puppet found herself increasingly isolated and unsupported.
The Azure Phoenix Azure Dragon stared at her, spitting a cascade of light towards her. Upon closer inspection, the cascade was actually made of fine, dense light threads that could pierce through solid rock!
The stream of light threads left the ice and frost female puppet covered in glowing holes, her blood seeping out.
Yet, the puppet clearly felt no pain, for even after such severe injuries, she charged forward relentlessly, this time slamming her palm into the ground and freezing it solid!
As the ice spread, it quickly covered the Light Tendril Python Grass’s cage as well, the condensing frost making the resilient vine plants brittle.
Then, the Heavy Slave Puppet unleashed his terrifying brute force. He repeatedly swung his hammer against the Light Tendril Python Grass cage, his powerful blows shattering the frozen vegetation!
Having broken free from the vegetative prison, the Heavy Slave Puppet’s fierce eyes fixed on Zhu Minglang at the edge of the cliff.
“The feng shui here is more suitable for your burial, rest assured, I will obliterate your remains,” Lu Mu said aloud.
Recalling the insulting words previously said by Zhu Minglang, Lu Mu suddenly felt a surge of excitement. She must smash Zhu Minglang’s head, skin him and make a Human Skin Puppet, otherwise, her hatred would not be appeased!
Zhu Minglang stood there, with no place to retreat.
The Heavy Slave Puppet was tying down the Azure Phoenix Azure Dragon, allowing the ice and frost female puppet to bypass the Azure Phoenix Azure Dragon and advance on Zhu Minglang.
Lu Mu’s smile curled, sinister and venomous.
She had thought Zhu Minglang had some special skill, but it turned out he only had an Azure Phoenix Azure Dragon to show for himself.
Unfortunately, a single dragon couldn’t stand against her two puppets!
She raised her palm, swinging it directly towards Zhu Minglang’s face.
Sharp icicles burst forth from her palm, thrusting fearfully at Zhu Minglang!
But just as she was about to strike, the eyes of the ice and frost female puppet suddenly lost their luster. Her movements froze, as if her soul had abruptly been extracted, leaving behind only an empty shell.
The gathered sharp icicles vanished into dust in an instant. Not just the ice and frost female puppet, but the Heavy Slave Puppet too, remained frozen in a hammer-swinging pose!
They lost control!
In that moment, the two puppets underwent a change in demeanor. They stood motionless, lifeless as two walking corpses, with vacant, soulless eyes. The commanding Demon Patterns on their bodies also disappeared!
Zhu Minglang looked at the female puppet right in front of him and couldn’t help but snort coldly.
Just as he had suspected, this Puppet Master would never let her true body appear before him. Although her demeanor, tone, and actions were identical to a living person’s, she was still just a puppet.
They were but marionettes.
The slight difference was that, even in the absence of controlling strings, they wouldn’t disintegrate instantly…

…
After waiting for a moment, Wu Peng walked up from the slope below, his hand still dragging a woman wrapped tightly in cloth.
This woman was dressed strangely, her gaze terrifying, her face still wrapped in light-colored bandages, revealing only her eyes, nostrils, and mouth.
Zhu Minglang watched as this bandage-wrapped mystery woman, like a hunted deer, was brought forth by Wu Peng.
“With such petty tricks, did you think you could escape the discerning eyes of your Grandpa Zhu?” Zhu Minglang said, looking at Lu Mu wrapped in bandages.
So this was her true appearance.
A freak who dared not show her real face.
No wonder she became ferocious and frightening the moment someone mentioned her ugliness; she truly was a monstrous, venomous woman!
“I am but an assassin. Even if you kill me, they will still have you killed.” The Puppet Master Lu Mu no longer bore the fierce demeanor she had before.
When controlling puppets, she was wildly arrogant, proclaiming that she would turn Zhu Minglang into a new Human Skin Puppet, but at this moment, she dared not show the slightest hint of defiance.
It seemed that Wu Peng had broken her legs, the agony so severe that it made her speech weak and strained.
“Weren’t you tough as nails? But now it seems you have a lot you wish to say to me. If you want to beg for mercy, now’s the time… Along with answering that initial question of yours, Zhao Yin Ge was thrown by me down this cliff to feed the Shark Crocodiles.” Zhu Minglang stated.
Upon hearing this, the Puppet Master Lu Mu visibly twitched. She glanced down at the reef waves below the cliff, also spotting the fierce Shark Crocodiles lying on the rocks, where it seemed there were even traces of blood!
“Please, Mr. Zhu, have mercy. I was coerced by An Qingfeng and had no choice but to follow his orders to harm you. I’ll tell you anything you want to know, I won’t hide a thing!” The Puppet Master Lu Mu shuddered in terror.
“If Zhao Yin Ge had no valuable information, I suppose you won’t have any either. Here’s what we’ll do, you were caught by Wu Peng. I’ll ask Wu Peng whether he wants to spare your life. If he agrees, I’ll give you a chance to start over.” Zhu Minglang had no intention of interrogating Puppet Master Lu Mu.
An assassin puppet master is essentially a loyal hound for An Qingfeng, an expensive tool nurtured for murder. It’s for the best to liberate her early; with her adept and deft killing methods, there was no telling how many lives were on her hands.
Puppet Master Lu Mu immediately set her gaze on Wu Peng, pleading, “Esteemed sir, I have many stunning female puppets at my disposal. Don’t be fooled by my ghastly appearance now, but those puppets are just like real women, I assure you they can serve you most comfortably. Esteemed sir, please spare my life!!”
Wu Peng looked at her, his eyes devoid of any flicker of emotion.
“Whatever type you like, I’ll capture for you, skin them…”
“If you have any enemies, I can also turn them into Undead Puppets, making them your slaves.”
“I can become your slave too; you can command me to do anything!”
The more Puppet Master Lu Mu spoke, the more disgusting her words became, further revealing her true nature.
Wu Peng was a mute after all.
How could he possibly speak.
So, Lu Mu’s fate was sealed from the start, especially after she mentioned using beautiful women for Undead Puppets, which only intensified Zhu Minglang and Wu Peng’s intent to kill.
Zhu Minglang signaled Wu Peng with his eyes, and Wu Peng nodded.
Wu Peng walked behind Lu Mu, cradled her head in his hands, and with a gentle twist, granted the cruel and venomous woman a swift end.
People like her, better reincarnate as animals sooner.
