Chapter 432: Mu Suyi

The three prodigies of the Heavenly Court gathered together, accepting the adulation of the crowd.

"Shi Ruo, what were you looking at just now?" Wei Feng asked via voice transmission, having noticed Shi Ruo's unusual behavior.

Of the three present, Shi Ruo's strength was not the greatest, but his perception was absolutely the sharpest.

A smile curled at the corners of Shi Ruo's mouth: "That puppet, it seems somewhat extraordinary."

The one he spoke of was precisely Wang Lu's Life Puppet, an Intermediate-Grade Puppet.

"A puppet?" Upon hearing this, Wei Feng was dismissive. "No matter how extraordinary, it is still just a puppet.

A trivial path, unworthy of the grand hall."

Wei Feng spoke the truth.

In the eyes of the Heavenly Court, the art of the Puppet Maker was merely a trivial path.

To this day, the strongest puppets produced were nothing more than High-level Puppets.

High-level Puppets might sound strong, but in the eyes of a God-level Being, they could be destroyed with a flip of the hand.

Moreover, the Legendary Puppet of puppet-making lore had never once appeared in the world.

Even if it did appear, so what?

It could not fundamentally change the current situation.

These puppets were, at most, existence akin to servants.

Speaking of servants, how could cold puppets compare to young girls with warm bodies and hot blood?

Therefore, Wei Feng was dismissive of puppets.

Although Shi Ruo sensed that the puppet was somewhat unusual, Wei Feng could not be bothered to take a look.

Only a Legendary Puppet would be worth a second glance from him.

He did not care for the entire lineage of Puppet Makers.

Hearing this, Shi Ruo merely smiled and did not refute him.

Although his perception was strong, it was not omnipotent.

He only had a vague feeling; as for that Intermediate-Grade Puppet, he did not truly care.

The leader of the three from the Heavenly Court was named Mu Suyi; his eyes were very small, but if one observed carefully, one would find one was smaller and one was larger, yet because both eyes were very small, it was difficult for ordinary people to notice this difference.

"Shi Ruo, Wei Feng, after entering the Ancient God Temple, the three of us must walk together.

Do not walk separately as we did before."

Mu Suyi transmitted his voice.

The gazes of Shi Ruo and Wei Feng became solemn.

To think he would have them walk together.

One must know, the three of them were not ordinary God Bone possessors.

As God Seed candidates of the Heavenly Court, Shi Ruo and Wei Feng had already reached the level of High-level Professionals, only one step away from the Legendary realm.

Furthermore, both had experience battling Legendary powerhouses and could be considered capable of challenging the Legendary.

As for Mu Suyi, he was even more incomparably powerful.

Even when Shi Ruo and Wei Feng were beside Mu Suyi, they often felt a sense of trepidation involuntarily.

Mu Suyi was the true God Seed, with the potential to become a god.

Even so, the three of them had to walk together, which showed that this trip to the Ancient God Temple was not so simple.

"This newly opened Ancient God Temple belongs to the ancient god known as Wa Nv."

As Mu Suyi spoke, a trace of shock appeared in the eyes of Shi Ruo and Wei Feng.

It was actually that one!

Wa Nv held a very high status among the ancient gods.

That was a god comparable to a Strong Divine Power; there were even rumors that Wa Nv had the potential to ascend to the Sovereign Realm.

With such a powerful ancient god, the treasures within the Ancient God Temple would definitely be numerous.

"There is a rumor that Wa Nv is the daughter of the Father God, though I do not know if it is true or false," Mu Suyi transmitted, golden light flickering in the depths of his pupils.

"Naturally, it is false," Wei Feng said. "If Wa Nv were the daughter of the Father God, how could she only be a Strong Divine Power?"

The three left the crowd, talking as they walked.

Mu Suyi walked at the very front, clearly the leader of the three.

"We have come to the Ancient God Temple this time to do two things.

First, to explore the Ancient God Temple.

Second, to find that God Bone possessor from Luozhou City.

At that time, he took action to save our young talents and thwarted the Evil God's conspiracy.

He has rendered a service to our Heavenly Court.

The Heavenly Court believes in repaying kindness with kindness and grievances with grievances.

With the opening of the Ancient God Temple this time, it is very likely he will come as well, and we need to find him."

Mu Suyi's voice was indifferent and calm, but in the depths of his eyes, a trace of anger surged within the golden light.

Wei Feng and Shi Ruo did not notice this.

"Brother Mu, we will certainly find that person and invite him to join our Heavenly Court."

Shi Ruo held great admiration for that God Bone possessor.

After all, being able to enter the Ancient God Temple through the proper channels meant that person was not old.

To be of such an age and yet be able to kill an Evil God of the West showed the strength of his power.

"Such a prodigy, I regret not being able to meet him sooner," Mu Suyi said, though a trace of jealousy flashed in his eyes.

A golden light flickered in his pupils.

"If Senior Brother Mu didn't have to handle government affairs in his spare time, in terms of cultivation, how could that mysterious God Bone possessor compare to Senior Brother Mu?" Wei Feng flattered from the side.

Mu Suyi was one of the three great prodigies of the Heavenly Court, a true God Seed.

"Junior Brother Wei, do not praise me to my detriment; when we meet that person, we must treat them with courtesy," Mu Suyi said slowly.

"Naturally, we in the Heavenly Court are very interested in that person.

If we can bring them into our Heavenly Court, the Heavenly Court's strength will increase, and we will have more certainty in dealing with the Western Evil God," Shi Ruo could not help but say.

Regarding the Western Evil God, he had always maintained an attitude of hatred.

His parents had died at the hands of Western heretics.

Mu Suyi glanced at Shi Ruo: "The Western Evil God truly deserves to die!

Junior Brother Shi Ruo, do not be sad; one day, we will wipe out the Western Evil God."

"I accept Senior Brother Mu's kind words," Shi Ruo replied, feeling a bit of warmth in his heart.

"Alright, the Ancient God Temple is about to open; let us enter the Ancient God Temple quickly, and do not let others seize the initiative."

"Senior Brother Mu, with you here, who could seize the initiative?"

The Ancient God Temple opened, and countless God Bone possessors flooded into it.

Wang Lu and Guo Mei were also among them; with four High-level Puppets guarding them, plus one Intermediate-Grade Puppet, their safety was absolutely guaranteed as long as they did not encounter special circumstances.

At the same time, a tall figure, holding a little girl by the hand, also entered the Ancient God Temple.

Beside them followed a tall woman, but that woman looked very indifferent, like a walking corpse.

This trio was naturally Lin Chao, Xiao Bing, and Twenty-one.

"Daddy, it smells so good here."

Just after entering the Ancient God Temple, Xiao Bing took a deep breath.

Lin Chao's gaze looked forward.

In the distance was an endless forest, with lush green ancient trees and exotic flowers and herbs, with fragrance overflowing.

"Wa Nu?"

Lin Chao naturally had also received this news.

This temple was rumored to be the Ancient God Temple of Wa Nu.

It was the temple of a powerful ancient god, and this ancient god was quite extraordinary, having practiced the Forging Heaven Art.

Currently, Lin Chao, with Xiao Bing's help, had obtained quite a bit of the Forging Heaven Art, but it was not complete.

He wondered if he could have any gains this time upon entering the Ancient God Temple and obtain a more complete Forging Heaven Art.

"Xiao Bing, does it smell very good here?" Lin Chao asked.

Since Xiao Bing said it smelled good, it meant there would definitely be gains this time.

"Here, it smells better than all the previous ones," Xiao Bing inhaled hard, a look of intoxication appearing on her face.

"Is that so?" Lin Chao nodded.

If that was the case, perhaps this trip to the Ancient God Temple would bring him quite a few gains.

"Let's go." Lin Chao held Xiao Bing's hand, and their figures disappeared.

He was naturally doing this to get ahead of the other God Bone possessors, obtain the Ancient God statues, cast them into materials, and then refine them into puppets.

Finally, he would go to get the Forging Heaven Art.

On the other side, the three God Bone possessors of the Heavenly Court gathered together.

Shi Ruo had a curious look on his face: "Senior Brother Mu, why aren't we moving faster?

According to the intelligence we obtained earlier, the disappearance of the Ancient God statues in the Ancient God Temple should have been done by that God Bone possessor.

We must hurry to the Ancient God Temple to be able to see that God Bone possessor."

Mu Suyi shook his head: "No matter how fast we are, we cannot compare to that God Bone possessor.

This time, we have another important matter to attend to, which is to obtain the inheritance of Wa Nu."

"Wa Nu's inheritance?" Shi Ruo was startled, "Isn't the inheritance in the Ancient God Temple?"

Mu Suyi chuckled: "The true inheritance is not in the Ancient God Temple; that is just a ruse.

The Heavenly Court received some news that the inheritance is hidden in the Secret Realm of the Ancient God Temple, and I was specifically ordered to retrieve it.

We must go slowly and search carefully.

Inviting that God Bone possessor to join the Heavenly Court is only a secondary matter."

Upon hearing this, Shi Ruo's expression became solemn.

Wei Feng also looked serious: "We will definitely assist Senior Brother Mu in obtaining Wa Nu's inheritance!"

Mu Suyi was indifferent, but still nodded with satisfaction: "I will trouble you both."

The reason he told these two this information was simply because these two were sacrificial pawns.

Wa Nu's inheritance was of great importance and was not so easily obtained.

Therefore, two sacrificial pawns appeared; he would let them try to accept Wa Nu's inheritance first, and if there were no major problems, he would then truly accept it himself.

Of course, Shi Ruo and Wei Feng did not know about this.

Upon learning that the true inheritance of Wa Nu was here, both were very excited.

One day later.

Lin Chao looked at the woman in front of him, a flash of disappointment appearing in his eyes.

"Greetings, Master."

This was the twenty-second God-Tier Puppet he had created.

He had originally thought that by using the statue of the Wa Maiden, he would be able to create a powerful puppet, but in the end, it was only comparable to a deity of Medium Divine Power.

Although it was considered strong among those with Medium Divine Power and much stronger than Twenty-one, it was not a Strong Divine Power after all, which left Lin Chao quite disappointed.

"From now on, you shall be called Twenty-two." Lin Chao could not be bothered to come up with a name; it was not easy to remember.

"Many thanks to Master for bestowing this name." Twenty-two knelt on one knee, looking heroic and spirited.

Beside them, Xiao Bing looked at Twenty-two, her eyes shining: "Daddy, is this the mother you found for me?"

Lin Chao felt helpless and rubbed Xiao Bing's head: "No."

"I want to have a mother." Xiao Bing's face was filled with anticipation.

Lin Chao was thoughtful: "Xiao Bing, do you not have a mother?"

"No."

"None?"

"Mm, I only have Daddy. It was Daddy who created me."

"Hm?"

Receiving this news left Lin Chao quite surprised.

However, when he questioned Xiao Bing further, he could not obtain any other useful information.

This made Lin Chao even more curious about Xiao Bing's identity.

"Xiao Bing, let's go, take me to the fragrant place!" Lin Chao held Xiao Bing, and the figures of the two vanished.

Twenty-one and Twenty-two followed closely behind Lin Chao.

Night fell, but in this Secret Realm, there was no concept of night; the entire sky was bright.

Wang Lu slumped on the ground, panting heavily: "If I ever catch that God Bone holder, I must give him a sound thrashing."

"Wang Lu, with your small frame, stop fantasizing.

Besides, it's not like you didn't gain anything; you obtained a Divine Art.

It's me who... returned empty-handed." As Guo Mei spoke, there was a look of helplessness in her eyes.

This time, they came to the Ancient God Temple, but the bulk of the wealth in the Ancient God Temple had already been taken by someone else.

Even the ancient god statues had been moved away by someone.

The person capable of doing these things was naturally that God Bone holder who had recently become famous.

"I only obtained one Divine Art!

Guo Mei, you have more than that; you obtained at least three Divine Arts, plus a pile of pills." Wang Lu said loudly, "I feel like you didn't come here for the Ancient God Temple, but for those men."

Guo Mei's goal in entering the Ancient God Temple was not the wealth of the Ancient God Temple; along the way, she wandered among some young talents and received so many gifts her hands grew soft.

"Those men are so easy to fool; I'm just keeping things safe for them, and then I'll teach them a lesson." Guo Mei laughed, "Wang Lu, when are we leaving?"

"The Ancient God Temple will be open for five days this time; no rush. It was hard for us to get in, so let's look around more; perhaps there will be other gains." Wang Lu said.

The gains in the Ancient God Temple were not just within the Temple.

In these spaces, there were also many strange flowers and rare herbs.

For Wang Lu, she could also find some precious materials.

"Is it really that simple?" A smile appeared in Guo Mei's eyes, "Wang Lu, what exactly is the Divine Art you obtained in the Temple?"

Upon hearing this, an unnatural flash passed through the depths of Wang Lu's eyes: "Why ask so much? Are you my mother?"

The Divine Art that Wang Lu obtained was somewhat special.

From that Divine Art, she had also obtained quite a bit of information.

The Puppet Making Technique originated from a powerful divine scripture.

Now, what she was thinking about was whether she could find the divine scripture that the Puppet Making Technique originated from through that Divine Art.

If she obtained it, perhaps... she could really create a Legendary Puppet and fulfill her father's wish.

"Eh?" At this moment, Guo Mei suddenly revealed a look of confusion, "Wang Lu, have you noticed... there is something abnormal here?"

"Abnormal?"

"The sky has turned dark."

"Ah?"

Only then did Wang Lu realize that the world was gradually turning dark, and the speed... was getting faster.

"It's dark." Guo Mei's expression became solemn.

The sky had truly turned dark.

Looking out, it was pitch black, and one could not even see their own fingers.

However, they were professionals after all, so they still possessed ordinary night vision.

The darkness did not have much impact on them.

But the fact that the sky suddenly turned dark meant there was a big problem; something must be hidden within it.

"Look quickly, light!"

Suddenly, Guo Mei discovered something, and her expression became excited.

Actually, there was no need for Guo Mei to remind her; Wang Lu had also discovered that beam of light.

They saw that in the southwest direction, not far away, a pillar of light pierced through the sky and the earth, looking exceptionally bright in the pitch-black Secret Realm.

"This must be a treasure appearing!

This treasure is so close to us; it is fated to be ours!" A look of excitement appeared on Guo Mei's face.

Wang Lu felt helpless: "Although this pillar of light is close to us, there are so many experts in the Secret Realm; with our strength, I'm afraid it will be difficult to snatch it."

"Even so, we have to go and take a look, don't we?"

"Anyway, you have four High-Grade Puppets, plus one Intermediate-Grade Puppet, and with my charm added in, no one will do anything to us!"
