Chapter 073: Blood Puppet

Ren Yi hurriedly turns Su Tingyun over. As he talks, his eyes slowly brim with tears. He never thought that a person who’s perfectly fine could just drop dead, without leaving even a trace of her divine soul’s presence.

Beside him, Ren Jia looks at him like he’s about to tell the other to stop. Then his eyelids twitch, and he turns his head elsewhere.  Seeing that overly large orchid tongue grass that keeps on screaming, there’s a look of astonishment in his eyes, then they darken slightly.

Bai Su bows down and looks at the person lying on the ground.

Said person seems to be in a state where her primordial spirit is out of her body.

Bai Su notices the puppet that is held tightly in Su Tingyun’s hand. He extends his own hand to take it, but the other is clutching it too tightly, and it takes him a lot of effort to pry the puppet out.

This kind of puppet is made of bismuth crystals, and with the formation engraved on it, it can act exactly the same as a living creature. If it’s a human, it can cry, laugh and talk. It’s probably smarter than Ren Yi. But they don’t attack, and if they get hit or attacked, they will revert to their original form.

This is a secret technique of the Bai family, and as for those traitors who separated and changed their surnames, he has heard that they’ve been trying to turn people into puppets.

Su Tingyun was fine just now, she couldn’t have possibly been crushed this way.  It’s after she knocked down the puppet that she became like this. Could it have something to do with the puppet?

Bai Su takes out a lamp and lights it around Su Tingyun. This lamp looks common, very similar to bronze oil lamps in ordinary households. The only difference is that there’s a lot green copper rust on the lamp, as if it had just been fished out from the bottom of the water.

This is called the Soul Trailing Lamp, and he was going to use it to find Li Xinmei’s primordial spirit. But now, he has to find Su Tingyun first.

The candle flame of the Lamp is faint green, and a small light from it strangely falls on Su Tingyun’s bracelet. Bai Su quips, “Come out, I know you’re inside.”

“I’ve never seen you like this.”

The cicada sheds its carapace, to vanish leaving an empty shell. She’s a little too skilled in it, but for her to do it so easily, it is possible that this is not her original body?

Of course, that doesn’t make sense. If it’s possession, why would she abandon the body so easily? If the body accidentally gets destroyed, then she would be finished.  Because survival through possession is difficult by heavenly law, it is already miraculous to successfully do it once.

Bai Su lifts a hand and taps the jade bracelet on Su Tingyun’s wrist, “Have you misunderstood something?”

“Come on, come out.” He’s burning with impatience, so much so that he wants to just destroy the jade bracelet. But Little Lan (orchid) in his divine soul is not happy with it, and Little Bai is screaming in the pond. So Bai Su can only speak softly with a reserved face, even using the tone that Granny has used to coax children.

He’s in a hurry, and even though he knows that the seal could not be undone right now, he is still anxious. So after calling out twice, his tone darkens, even exerting pressure with his Divine Soul.

“Come out now!” he hisses out through his teeth, and the killing intent with it is obvious, bringing down a strong sense of oppression to Su Tingyun inside the jade bracelet.

It was only after he calls for the third time that Bai Su’s eyes turn cold. The hand holding Su Tingyun’s wrist suddenly squeezes hard, creating a purple mark on her wrist. This makes Su Tingyun, who’s hiding in the jade bracelet, jump in fear.

After the flame from the Soul Trailing Lamp falls on Su Tingyun’s jade bracelet for for a moment, it floats towards Ren Jia.  The faint green light shines on Ren Jia’s face.

“My Lord, what’s the matter?” Ren Jia asks with an inscrutable expression.

His Soul Trailing lamp can only look for the primordial spirit lost by those who are separated from their own souls.  That is to say, if the primordial spirit leaves the body and latches on to other things.

Ren Jia, Ren Yi, and himself definitely don’t stay together all the time, so, for the sake of ensuring the absolute loyalty of this two subordinates, he has also placed a brand on their souls. He hasn’t felt any abnormality recently, the signature of Ren Jia’s divine soul indeed belongs to the person in front of him, why…

No matter, control and detain the man in question first.
