Dealing with Lin Zong, a God King Realm Puppet

Clan Head's Hall

The banquet had just ended, and Nan Xiao sat in a chair with his eyes closed, resting.

Nan Xunran walked up to Nan Xiao and said softly, "Father, I'm going to the lower realm tomorrow."

"All right." Nan Xiao opened his eyes and looked at him, without asking why Nan Xunran was going to the lower realm.

"There are cultivation restrictions in the lower realm. I'll arrange a new protector for you temporarily," Nan Xiao said.

Nan Xunran nodded slightly.

"Be careful in everything you do," Nan Xiao added.

Outside the hall

"System, show me Lin Zong's location."

"Coming right up!"

Now that he knew where the opportunity lay, there was no need for Lin Zong to stay alive.

Nan Xunran took out the Soul-Chasing, Spirit-Seizing Needle. He had already left a trace of Lin Zong's soul on it.

As a system reward, it could kill Lin Zong in a single strike, no matter where he was.

The Lin Clan's flying vessel

"Ah!!!!!" A piercing scream rang out.

Lin Weiwei was so frightened that she collapsed to the floor.

The Lin Clan head's expression changed. "What happened?"

Lin Weiwei trembled as she said, "Lin... Lin Zong is dead..."

The Lin Clan head was horrified. He hurried forward to check.

Lin Zong had already ceased breathing, and his soul had completely dissipated.

The Lin Clan head's face was frighteningly grim. When had the Lin Clan offended such an expert, one who could take a life without anyone being the wiser?

He immediately shouted, "Everyone, gather around! Don't split up!"

None of them knew who the other party's target was, and all were on edge.

Not until they had all returned safely to the Lin Clan did anyone else die for no apparent reason.

They all understood that Lin Zong alone had been the other party's target.

Still shaken, Lin Weiwei said, "Damn it, what trouble did Lin Zong stir up out there this time?"

The Lin Clan head let out a long sigh.

Ever since Lin Zong had begun to distinguish himself, he had never stopped stirring up trouble.

Because of his exceptional talent, the Lin Clan head had stepped in many times to settle matters for him.

But now, Lin Zong had finally provoked someone he was powerless to stand against.

From beginning to end, the other party had never even shown themself.

Divine Son Hall

A crisp "Ding-dong!" rang out from the system's orb of light.

[Child of fortune Lin Zong has died. Heaven's Mandate Points reduced to zero]

[Host's Kill Points increased by 37,980]

[Obtained memory fragment x1]

[Obtained Soul-Devouring Umbrella x1: A defensive artifact that can devour souls. The more souls it devours, the stronger its defenses become]

[Obtained God King Realm puppet x1]

[Obtained Soul-Extinguishing Bell x1: The sound it produces can directly attack souls]

[Obtained Chaos Demon Seed x1: It can disrupt a person's mental world, throwing their thoughts into disarray, causing them to lose themselves in chaos and become a demonic puppet.]

Nan Xunran raised an eyebrow slightly. A God King Realm puppet?

"Host, host, you can choose the cultivation technique the puppet practices yourself. The puppet will cultivate on its own."

Nan Xunran nodded slightly. With a small movement of his right hand, a faint light flashed, and a copy of the Blood Demon Art appeared in his hand.

He waved his right hand, and the puppet silently appeared.

The puppet was expressionless, yet it gave off a powerful presence.

The puppet accepted the Blood Demon Art, then vanished.

Heavenly Spring Realm

Lu Clan

Lu Mingzhou exclaimed in shock, "Ancestor?! Why have you come out of seclusion?"

The Lu Clan's ancestor looked solemn and spoke a little quickly. "Hurry and notify everyone in the clan. Tomorrow, the Nan Clan's divine son from the Upper Realm will descend to the lower realm and stay with the Lu Clan for a while."

Lu Mingzhou nearly jumped in shock at the news. "What?!" he shouted in disbelief.

He quickly understood what this meant. The Upper Realm's divine son was coming to stay with the Lu Clan, a once-in-a-thousand-years opportunity for the clan.

The Lu Clan might well use this chance to become a top faction in the Heavenly Spring Realm in one leap, with an Upper Realm faction as its backer.

Lu Mingzhou dared not delay. He immediately notified everyone in the clan as quickly as he could, telling the younger members who were away to return home at once.

If anyone caught the divine son's eye, they might even be taken back to the Upper Realm.

As soon as the news spread, the entire Lu Clan erupted in excitement.

Everyone was astonished, and discussions broke out all around.
