Chapter 218: Fun! I like it!

Having lost some of his spiritual power, Malgani was currently hiding in the relatively remote Sigh City, extremely weak.

In order to quickly replenish the lost spiritual power, Malgani prepared to find a few Soul Professional toys to play with in some wild Secret Realm in the human world, intending to feed on their souls to replenish himself while he played.

Malgani quickly locked onto a Secret Realm; at this moment, on the screen before him, a five-person squad was struggling to fight against the monsters inside the Secret Realm.

It could be clearly seen that these five Soul Professionals were wearing the uniforms of the Xiaolong Squad recruits, but they seemed completely unaware of an evil soul intrusion.

The five-person squad that Malgani wanted to lay his hands on was none other than He Muxue and her four companions.

At this time, the five of them were undergoing their final intensive training before entering the New Recruit Training Camp, yet they were completely oblivious to the danger quietly approaching.

"Sister Xue, I seem to sense an unusual aura..."

Having just finished off a few monsters, Liu Yu, who was walking at the back of the squad, looked around somewhat strangely and muttered.

He Muxue knew that Liu Yu possessed a Strong Perception skill, which was even stronger than her own unique Spiritual Power Perception.

In fact, before Liu Yu said this, He Muxue had also felt as if some force in the shadows was spying on them; the feeling was very strange, the kind that was hard to put into words.

Hearing Liu Yu say this, He Muxue immediately became alert; she once again released her Spiritual Power Perception to the surroundings, cautiously sensing everything around her.

However, apart from the lingering aura of the monsters they had just eliminated, she did not seem to detect any special aura.

"Liu Yu, are you sure you sensed something? Could it be that the lingering aura of those monsters just now gave you an illusion?" He Muxue asked with a frown.

Liu Yu shook his head, a trace of firmness appearing in his eyes: "Sister Xue, I can feel it; that aura is very faint, but it is extremely evil, not like the aura of a monster."

The others in the squad heard the conversation between the two and also stopped what they were doing, vigilantly observing their surroundings.

"Then what should we do? Should we leave here first?" the priest girl in the squad asked somewhat nervously.

He Muxue thought for a moment and said: "Let's not act rashly for now; after all, we are in the middle of intensive training, and we cannot leave the Secret Realm without special circumstances."

"We will continue to remain vigilant and move slowly toward the exit. If there really is danger, we will be able to respond in time."

Everyone nodded one after another and cautiously moved toward the exit.

"Oh, it's a few Soul Professional recruits, fun! I like it~"

The corners of Malgani's mouth curled into a cruel arc, and a transparent thread immediately extended from his hands, sweeping toward He Muxue.

At this moment, He Muxue, who was on full alert, suddenly felt her soul being tightly gripped by a strange force.

Although she tried to break free from the opponent, she was shocked to find that she had been bound tightly.

Just as she was struggling desperately, a voice was transmitted into her mind: "Go, pick up the bow and arrow in your hand and kill them."

The Puppet Soul Thread had been deeply embedded into He Muxue's soul; one could see a strange red light flash across her pupils instantly, and her whole person became somewhat dull, her eyes turning hollow.

She was seen slowly nocking an arrow, slowly aiming at Liu Yu beside her.

"Sister Xue, what are you doing?" As Liu Yu turned his head, he saw He Muxue aiming her bow at him, and his expression could not help but turn stern.

"Xue'er, what's wrong with you? Xue'er, that's Liu Yu." The priest girl also discovered He Muxue's abnormality; she hurriedly pulled at her, trying to make her regain consciousness.

But how could He Muxue, deeply controlled by Puppetry, listen to her now? In her eyes, there was only slaughter.

The next moment, He Muxue jerked her body, directly knocking away the priest girl who was pulling her, and the arrow nocked on the bow was shot toward Liu Yu.

In the panic, Liu Yu hurriedly ducked his neck, and the arrow flew past, grazing his scalp.

Seeing that the strike failed, He Muxue ferociously pulled out the short blade at her waist, lunged forward, and stabbed directly into Liu Yu's right rib.

"Sister Xue, wake up, what is wrong with you!" Liu Yu used his hands to grip He Muxue's wrist that was holding the knife tightly, enduring the pain as he shouted.

"I want you to die!" There was not a trace of emotion on He Muxue's face; her expression was indifferent as she coldly squeezed these words out of her mouth.

Seeing this situation, the other three team members were about to step forward to stop her, but in the next second, these three suddenly all stood frozen in place like soulless puppets.

Immediately following a flash of strange red light in their three pairs of pupils, they each raised the weapons in their hands and stabbed toward He Muxue's back in unison.

When Zhou Chu's spiritual power found Malgani, he happened to see this scene.

Although this scene was only seen by Malgani alone, Zhou Chu was currently blessed with God-level Spiritual Power, so he could also see Malgani's soul vision.

With a flick of his finger, Zhou Chu sent a transparent thread to wrap around Malgani's neck, and then with a violent pull, he dragged Malgani's body flying backward.

Malgani, who was focused on casting the spell, was interrupted by this sudden action and instantly lost control over He Muxue and the others; the scene before his eyes flashed and vanished, and he lay on the ground splayed out.

Malgani was terrified; just as he wanted to get up, he discovered that his neck was being tightly gripped by an invisible giant hand, and his limbs were also being firmly restrained.

"Who! Who exactly is... uh..."

Malgani suddenly felt that his body no longer belonged to him, yet he felt his throat could still make a sound; just as he was about to shout, he was tightly strangled by that invisible force, and could only make "uh" sounds, his face full of terror.

Just at this moment, deep within his soul, Zhou Chu's figure suddenly appeared.

Zhou Chu's face wore a grim smile, and his voice carried a cold tone: "Malgani? You certainly made me look for you!"

"You, it's you..."

Seeing the figure manifested deep in his soul, Malgani widened his eyes, his gaze full of shock and fear.

"You... how do you know Puppetry..."

Malgani squeezed out this sentence with difficulty; his neck being gripped by an invisible force made it very difficult for him to speak and breathe.

The force in Zhou Chu's hand increased by a few more degrees; Malgani could only make "uh-uh" sounds, and his light purple skin instantly turned a dark, bruised purple.

He knew deeply that he could not contend with Zhou Chu's power, and under the control of the God-level Puppet Soul Control Technique, he realized even more the fear of being controlled.

"Spare, spare, spare me..."

Under the intense desire to survive, Malgani used almost all his strength to begin begging for mercy.
