How is this possible?" [Ding! Based on the speed the sphere was traveling and the time you were in the void, the distance covered is ten times bigger than the Seeking Continent.] ''Goodbye to my sect trials. If I had known then I would have to spend my last years going toward another direction. No wonder the system does not know where I am. I have no map of this place. I needed to heal the women''s bodies and in the meantime figure out how to let Shu Er walk on her own. Shu Er looked sad, I could observe her through my soul. ''Sigh'' I guess for a beautiful woman losing a leg and a hand is not acceptable at all. Shu Yi was also feeling down without her arm, but still, she was better off than her little sister was since she could still walk. We walked for several hours towards the shadow of the city we spotted. We had been through a lot during the travel, so I tended their wounds and camp out for the day. The night was approaching; we were staring up at the dark sky. Shu Er opened her mouth to talk. "Master, will I have to stay like this forever?" Shu Er voice pierced through my mind. I was blaming myself, how weak I was. "Don''t you know how awesome your master is? I will heal you so don''t worry about it and go to sleep," I said turning my head to look into her eyes. We stared for some minutes until her eyes closed; she had fallen asleep. She was exhausted. "What are your thoughts, Shu Yi?" I could see her frowning. "I don''t understand you at all Master. What kind of person are you? You kill without batting an eye, you show no kind of emotion, and sometimes you behave like an adult sometimes as a kid. You are too hard to understand, you could have left us behind as we are just slaves yet you did not. You protected us. Why? It''s so confusing." Shu Yi''s hand was grabbing her heart all the time while she spoke. "Honestly? I do not know. I just know I will protect you both the best I can. You both are mine; I do not consider you slaves with no kind of value. The moment I sealed both your souls you were my followers. As your Master, it is important for me to care about you." "Is it only this?" Shu Yi asked in a soft voice.If you encounter this tale on Amazon, note that it''s taken without the author''s consent. Report it. I knew what she was getting at. I may not love them but I cared about them. Even if they were not useful, I will make them be useful. In my mind even though they had my seal, they were not different from any other follower I had. Just that it was more convenient with the seal for safety purposes. In addition, I could talk to them through it. "Don''t worry about it for now. Eventually, it will happen naturally." That was the best answer I could give her. Shu Yi smiled, turned her head around and faced the sky. "Good night," ... It was morning; it improved the mood a little. We could not eat since the Black Star Flame burned everything in my inventory. There was no beast in sight in this vast plain. We continued in the direction of the city. During our walk, we saw nothing strange, nor a beast. The only suspicious thing was that we did not get close to the city. Roughly, 6 hours later and the city had the same size. ''Don''t tell me now it trap us? Why can''t things be normal?'' ... "Master, what are we going to do?" 3 days of walking brought us nothing. We did not see a beast, an animal or a person. This place was too strange. The sky, the sun, the moon, the stars, they had the same position. Nothing moved. I went crazy and destroyed the plains. I created deep craters; I exploded the ground. I used every kind of idea in my head. The following day everything I had destroyed recovered as if I had done nothing. ''This place is too strange... If we didn''t find a solution Shu Yi and Shu Er will starve to death.'' "Master, look! The sky!" shouted Shu Yi. A tear appeared in the sky followed by a ray of light descending to the vast green plain. A young man appeared carrying a giant ax. He was quite far away, so he did not notice us in distance. The young man laughed, "It seems I arrived here first. I can''t wait for the rest of them to come here." I was about to approach him when another tear appeared in the sky. A new young man descended, his clothes were clean, different from the person carrying the giant ax and he was handsome. From his posture, he was someone from a rich family, probably some kind of young master. The worst kind one had to deal with; they bring too many troubles. Two more tears opened in the sky, this time two girls appeared. They were both inferior in looks to my Shu Yi and Shu Er, but I had to say they were also good looking and had nice bodies. "We are the first four to pass?" said one of those girls. "I guess they will take some time. It''s awesome for someone as dumb as you to pass," The young man mocked the girl who just talked. ''I guess they don''t have a good relationship. Who cares about their relationship; I need to know where the hell I am'' I approached them while they were discussing with each other. "Excuse me, I''m lost. Do you know where we are?" I said innocently. The four of them jumped back and aimed their weapons at me; I did not expect this kind of reaction. "Who are you?" The young man with the giant ax asked. "Idiot! The test must have started already." "He''s right. Don''t you see the two women, they are way over the minimum age to be able to take part. It must relate him to the test." "Should be we kill it..." The small girl said. "Not, don''t you see his cultivation? I cannot see it. He must be a very strong puppet. I guess the mission must be to help him. Perhaps this test is a group test?" Vol 02 - CH02 Madness More tears appeared in the sky. Hundreds of lights started to descend. "Dammit, this is too messy. Li Qi we need to regroup." The youth with the axe said to the young man. "Don''t freaking order me around Chu Xian." Li Qi replied back in a commanding tone. "Stop it; both of you. Don''t start a fight, now isn''t the right time." The other girl who didn''t talk until now stood between the both of them. "You Ye is right, we don''t have time." Chu Xian said. "Xiao Wu, let''s go. We already found the guide." You Ye held Xiao Wu''s hands. "Look these two puppets are broken! One is missing a leg and a hand while the other is only missing an arm." Li Qi pointed out. "The passage of time must have damaged them, but why is a puppet carrying another puppet? So strange." You Ye was frowning. Sigh. "Actually, they are quite beautiful... what a pity." "Li Qi, can you regroup with our people? This is our chance to make them eat dust." Chu Xian laughed. "For once we agree! You three take care of the 3 puppets make sure they are hidden. They have low intelligence, so their soul must be a low level one." Li Qi said while speeding off towards a direction. ''What is going on? Did they mistake us for puppets? Why are so many people descending from the skies?!'' "Hey! We are not puppets!" The three of them looked at me with weird faces without saying a word. Shu Yi and Shu Er were also confused and a bit angry. They were actually pitied because of their missing limbs. A huge tear opened in the sky, interrupting their thoughts. A big and beautiful Swallowtail butterfly appeared. Mounted on it was a beautiful girl. However, there was a cold layer of air around her. She was a Qi Refining Peak expert while her mount was a King Beast rank. "Sh*t! Lu Xin caught up!" Chu Xian, You Ye and Xiao Wu''s expression paled. ''What''s special about this girl that makes them so afraid? To think they''d be scared of a beautiful girl. The butterfly was pissing me off though. Simply because I hated them In my previous life.'' "It''s Li Qi he''s back" You Ye got excited. "Everything has been arranged. I managed to join our sects together, they will shield us. There is not much time to waste, we need to move fast. Chu Xian, your Mountain Berserk Sect will take the initiative to push through them. My Light Sect will do the covering. You Ye and Xiao Wu''s MoonLake Sect will take the rear." Li Qi was explaining when he was interrupted by You Ye. "The DarkWood Sect didn''t agree?"The tale has been stolen; if detected on Amazon, report the violation. "No! I overheard that they had colluded with Lu Xin''s Sword Sect. I''m afraid it won''t be easy. We can only use the element of surprise." Li Qi said while looking at me. "Damn it! These unworthy guys. This time we are facing 17 sects. We can''t back down. Us from the South Country will prevail." ''Light Sect? Wasn''t I outside the seeking continent? Facing 17 sects, aren''t these four just seeking death? Could it be...'' "The Trial.." before I could finish what I was about to say Chu Xian grabbed me. You Ye and Xiao Wu took care of Shu Er and Shu Yi was picked by Li Qi. "Now! The puppet started the trial," Shouted Li Qi. Dozens of youths yelled out Qi art names hitting other youths, many were unprepared to receive this sneak attack. I could see over 50 youth armed with axes surrounding us. "Senior Chu, we will charge through. Good luck." ''F*ck, are they insane!'' They were charging at 500 youths with only 50 on their side. "Li Qi! The tokens! Do they work?" Xiao Wu shouted anxiously. "Yes but you need to claim a life to be able to exit." Li Qi faced back. "Light Sect, Blind Cover." One hundred youths appeared covering the formation the 50 youths made. This was total madness. In a matter of seconds, more than 200 hundred youths died without knowing what hit them. "Go! Move out!" Chu Xian yelled while splitting five guys with one wave of his axe. "Cover them!" Ten young girls between 13 and 14 years old yelled. ... "Stop them! They have found the Trial Guide!" "Chase after them!" "Everyone! Take cover, they are doing sneak attacks." "Look! Their Sects united. They are covering for them." Hundreds of shouts rang out, we were charging out of the encirclement. This was a messy battlefield. Li Qi was covered in blood while he was assisting his Light Sect. Right now the MoonLake Sect was the one in charge of covering us, they made a huge barrier while Chu Xian was the heavy support. "Teleport out when you can''t handle it anymore. Get your tokens ready." Chu Xian was in the front row full of blood. Two youth beside him got hit by a Qi art that dealt them serious damage. Although they survived that, they were seriously injured. I saw them crushing a token in their hands and disappearing from the battlefield. The guy who injured them was split in half by Chu Xian''s axe. Li Qi was also killing smoothly yet they were up against too many. I had to say Li Qi''s formation was quite effective. In a few more minutes 20% of the guys died and 40% teleported, with only 40% left we were advancing. I didn''t know whether to laugh or cry... I did say that I was not a puppet... yet they thought I was some kind of guide... Free Death Points were always welcomed though. Although many managed to teleport there were many that died, especially at the start. I''m sure this time the South Country will get a huge enmity with all the other sects. Three sects fighting against seventeen sects was crazy. But I liked their guts and style! Bring more death! "MoonLake Sect switch now!" You Ye commanded. One hundred girls covered themselves in their barrier and rushed to the enemy lines. The girls were doing a kamikaze attack. "Reflection!" It was madness! Hundreds of girls were getting hit, their barrier was barely holding on. After yelling "Reflection" the barrier expanded and exploded. The girls laid on the floor with serious injuries although not life threatening. They were smiling while crushing their tokens. It seems this Sect was seriously no joke... I couldn''t help but look at the innocent You Ye and Xiao Wu. It was scary to think that a sect has such arts. After that, the Light sect exploded in a huge light. I was blinded. I could see nothing at all, however, through my soul I could see Li Qi covering all of us in his Qi and rushing forward, he was getting paler by the second. Ten minutes later the light diminished, and I recovered my sight. We were far away from the battlefield, the youths were recovering and pulling together. No one from the Light Sect, the Mountain Berserk Sect or the MoonLake Sect remained, only Li Qi, Chu Xian, You Ye and Xiao Wu. These four youth had a solemn face on them. They were covered in blood exhausted, but their eyes showed a burning fighting spirit. "Sh*t! Lu Xin is chasing us." Vol 02 - CH03 Getting away "Why are you so afraid of her?" I asked. She was still far away from us, thanks to the butterfly which was a King Beast peak, in a few minutes, she would catch up with us. "That because she''s from the Righteous Sect the most powerful Sect from the Central Country. Also, she''s the granddaughter of the Head Master. They have trained her since young. She''s only 13 years old, but she''s already at the Qi Refining Peak..." "So? You are four against a woman..." What a bunch of weaklings... "She''s stronger than us combined..." Shu Er and Shu Yi laughed, it''s been a while since they laughed. I enjoyed their smile. "Master, let them witness the strength of the mighty Puppet Guide..." "What are we going to do, it seems if we don''t agree to fight her the Puppet may ditch us." Xiao Wu said. "But it''s impossible for us to win her, she has many trump cards." I looked at Shu Yi and Shu Er, we three had a disbelief looks on our faces. Are they dumb or something? What quest... I was getting pissed with this four idiots. While they were talking Lu Xin already caught with us. "You think you four can''t match me? Hand over the Puppet Guide, this time you create a big trouble for your three sects. You, though with only this kind of ability you could get the Ancient Ruins buried treasure? Kneel and repent or face death. Choose!" The fourth youth brought out their weapons, they were ready to fight Lu Xin. "I appreciate your courage, at least you aren''t trash. Well, you shall die under my sword," ''What an arrogant woman... mm... my soul picked subtle change in the environment. Something changed. I could see a bit more clearly the city shadow. Something must have been activated'' The fight was about to start; it was a tense moment, sweat could be seen on the four youth foreheads yet Lu Xin stood there with that cold face of hers... Shu Yi stomach growled... her face turned red. Shu Er smiled at her. They didn''t eat for many days, they needed something to eat. The five of them turned to look at her, they made her blush more; she took a few steps back and hid behind her little sister...If you encounter this story on Amazon, note that it''s taken without permission from the author. Report it. The mood became awkward... the five of them turned to look to this young puppet with a missing arm. ''Oh! The butterfly well it''s a bug but it will have some kind of meat being so big right?'' I walked towards the butterfly, it also had an attitude like her master. Too arrogant. My hand was moving slowly I released some pressure to root the beast. The five of them were watching my hand moving until it grabbed the butterfly head, the five of them had different though, no one expected me to exert a little bit of pressure. The butterfly head exploded. [Ding! Killed Swallowtail butterfly. +1350 EXP] [Ding! Death Point +1] [Ding! Death Core +1] Their jaws dropped... the puppet was that powerful? Was not it damaged... that was a King peak beast it did not even struggle at all. It just faced its death without doing nothing... Wait! Something was wrong with this the Puppet only Guide them through the test and explained the rules and this kind of things... they did not kill the participants on the test. "You are not the Puppet Guide! Who are you?" Lu Xin was furious her precious mount was dead. She had this butterfly since she was little. I moved the corpse towards Shu Yi and Shu Er I dissected and dismember it fast, my trait King Monster hunter was very useful it allowed me to select the best parts for them to eat. They sat and cooked really fast with their Qi the butterfly parts I gave them. Lu Xin mind went blank. She was never disregarded like this; this youth in front of her ignored her totally. He even gave her dead mount corpse away for both women to eat. She was watching how her precious mount that was with her for ten years was being eaten. She could not process what was happening... "We were mistaken? Wasn''t he the Puppet Guide? But he was here before us." I confused Li Qi. "Right we were the ones to pass first the second trial." Chu Xian exclaimed. "Also look at those couple women they are over 15 years old they should be able to be able to enter the trials..." You Ye was checking both women up and down. "But this youth is less than 15 years old... Could the anomaly in the Ancient Ruins was caused by him?" Xiao Wu was mumbling... They were discussing this absurd situation; they could not make any sense out of it. "You boy! You court death!" Lu Xin shouted. It seemed that after some time passed, she came back. She was ready to cause me troubles. She unleashed her sword and moved towards me she executed a movement technique called Cloud Steps, she was slightly floating coming towards me. I did not dare to underestimate her movement technique it was fast, but it was clear that she was not used to fighting at all. She lacked experience besides my body boosted with Qi cultivation could match a normal Core Foundation 1st Rank; she became slow to the point I could crush her instantly. Her technique was great I could see that, but it was clearly a flashy movement without substance or improvement in speed. I guessed it would be a Core art, and she was executing being a Qi cultivation useless except for show. She did not grasp the technique properly. In fact, Li Qi was faster than she was. I did not want to embarrass her anymore, so I slapped her face, I sent her flying. "You are not a worthy opponent. Your technique is inferior to these four, yet you are so arrogant and mighty. Go home and train some more years." I could not stand this kind of attitude. I did not want to kill her. She could be a potential problem and I needed to get smart and play low. This kind of place could bring me too many enemies. I did not want that many troubles...
