Twenty Years Later

As for whether, in reality, Clear Wind's strength would increase to the point where he could match a Golden Core Middle Stage cultivator, He Song was not certain.

But according to He Song's true thoughts, that guess was probably not far off.

Even if Clear Wind's strength could not swiftly reach the Golden Core Middle Stage in his subsequent improvements,

Besides that,

It was only that, since He Song had not fused any precious materials into her, Mingyue's improvement in strength could not keep up with Clear Wind's.

According to He Song's previous plans,

among the Golden Core puppets in his possession, one would certainly need to receive special treatment.

After all, a Golden Core puppet at the Golden Core Middle Stage, or even the Golden Core Late Stage, would undoubtedly be of greater help to He Song than two Golden Core Early Stage puppets.
