Chapter 1260: Be careful!

Looking at this puppet, everyone felt reluctant to look at it, and Hong Zun even couldn't help wanting to go up and kick it, just giving it a kick.

But Ye Zhangqing beside him hurriedly stopped him.

"Wait a moment, Peak Master."

"What's wrong?"

"Your kick might easily knock it apart."

Just a few steps ago it had lost half its body; could it take your kick? If you kick it, it might not even be able to crawl.

Hearing that, Hong Zun could only sheepishly retract his foot, as if that really was the case.

Nobody dared to touch it anymore, for fear that a careless move would break it apart.

Inching toward the exit, after great effort, finally the hand touched the exit.

Though the distance was less than half a meter, seeing the puppet finally reach the exit, everyone couldn't help feeling excited.

Not easy, really not easy; for that short distance, the puppet wriggled on the ground for almost a damn tea's time.

"It's past."

"Do you see it? What's the situation now?"

"Only the hand has passed; I can see the fur."

Half an arm had already passed, the crowd excited, while on the other side the demons had also waited half a day, but there was still no follow‑up; just as they were about to lose patience, suddenly a demon god king called out.

"Quick, look, what is that?"

The demons turned toward the sound and saw a hand slowly extending from the exit.

"Finally out."

Seeing this, the demons felt excited, having finally waited, but soon realized something was off.

Why is the hand so low? It doesn't look like normal walking.

Who walks with their hand on the ground, in a crawling posture?

Something's wrong, something's wrong; the two demon emperors made a quick decision, signaling the demons to stay still for a moment.

Hearing that, the demons didn't act right away, just fixing their gaze on the hand reaching out from the demon cave.

Then the demons saw the hand swaying back and forth at the demon cave's exit, as if trying to crawl over, but damn it, it didn't move.

It was actually moving, just too slow, making it seem as if it weren't moving at all.

Seeing this, the demons gritted their teeth in frustration, unable to bear it.

In their hearts they couldn't help cursing.

"Damn it, if you're coming, hurry up—what are you doing?"

The demons were so anxious they wanted to rush over and pull him up—what the hell is going on, did someone trip you behind?

But without the demon emperors' order, they dared not act rashly, only gritting their teeth, suppressing their inner anxiety, and waiting patiently.

Time passed bit by bit; finally, when many demons were almost driven mad by torment, a …… no, half a head stretched out.

"Here it comes, get ready."

"Wrong, why is it only half a head?"

"Huh???"

Seeing that it was finally out, the demons' hearts surged with excitement; they secretly readied themselves, ready to rush forward and subdue the person at the demon emperors' command.

But as the demon god king spoke, the demons froze for a moment, then their scalps went numb.

After waiting so long, we finally saw the head, but damn it, why is it only half?

"Where's the other half of the head?"

Then another demon discovered, damn it, this doesn't look like a person at all.

"Is this a puppet?"

"A puppet? Have you ever seen such a trashy puppet?"

"I haven't, but it really looks like a puppet—look, there's no sign of life at all."

The demons stared fixedly at the half‑head, their hearts filled with curiosity.

They had of course seen puppets before, but the puppets of Zhu Tian Wan Jie are all mighty and majestic—how could they resemble this trash before our eyes?

Even getting out of the demon cave, it wriggled there for almost a quarter hour, and now it's only half a head—could this thing be a puppet?

Even the two demon emperors couldn't help moving a bit closer to examine it.

This thing is quite novel; it looks like a puppet but is utterly trash—what use could it have?

Inside the demon cave, seeing the puppet finally extend its head out, Yun Xiantai hurriedly asked.

"How is it? What's the situation outside now?"

"Lots of ingredients."

The Artifact Master Alliance's elder spoke truthfully; hearing that, everyone was not surprised, after all they had already guessed as much.

The demon cave has been opened; how could the demons lack any preparation? Surely it's heavily guarded.

It seems we won't get to see the demon realm's appearance today, but since we've opened the demon cave, the future is long and we'll have plenty of time.

We'll surely find an opportunity; there's no need to rush.

Seeing everyone abandon the idea of going to the demon realm, Dongfang Hong couldn't help but sigh in relief.

He really feared that Yun Xiantai and the others would be headstrong and rush out heedlessly, which would truly be walking into a trap.

Now it's fine; it seems Yun Xiantai and the others are bold, yet they still value their lives and don't recklessly endanger themselves.

There wasn't much opportunity, and everyone was planning to head back, but just then the Artifact Master Alliance's elder suddenly broke into a smile and asked.

"Want to bring some ingredients over?"

"Oh? Any chance?"

As soon as these words were spoken, Yun Xiantai immediately became interested and hurriedly asked.

The Artifact Master Alliance Elder then signaled them to stay calm and not be restless.

"Wait for Yun Ancestor to follow my orders and act."

"Okay, no problem."

Yun Xiantai could not see the outside scenery and could only follow the commands of the Artifact Master Alliance Elder.

On the other side, in the Demon Realm, at this moment the two Demon Emperors and a host of Demon God Kings, out of curiosity, had already gathered at the exit, closely examining this half-made puppet.

They weren't worried at all, laughing, here we have two Demon Emperors and so many powerful Demons; what tricks could those humans possibly pull?

Even the Demons were hoping those humans would show themselves soon; how long have we been waiting?

Thus, the many Demons had no precautions at all, each one curiously discussing.

"It indeed looks like a puppet, but it's just too crude."

"It feels like a single finger could poke and ruin it."

"Do you think it's because the artifact-refining skill of the Haotu World is too low, so they refined this puppet into such a shape?"

"That's quite possible, after all, it's just a barbarian land."

The Demons had no defenses whatsoever, and not far away, Yi Qi, seeing this scene, always felt something was wrong.

Those humans of the Haotu World are full of tricks; this is clearly off.

When things go awry, there must be something uncanny.

Just as Yi Qi was about to speak up to warn them, suddenly, from the exit, a large hand shot out; seeing this, Yi Qi's hair stood on end—indeed, there was indeed a problem, and he hurriedly shouted.

"Be careful!"

Too bad, the warning came too late; only see that large hand grabbed one of the Demon Emperors, who wore a bewildered expression, and in a swoop dragged him into the Demon Cave.

Huh???
