Looking at the solemn, lifeless, purplish- Purple-Black Puppet standing before him, Xiao Han stroked his chin.

He had just obtained the method to control the puppet from the inheritance, and the result was a bit beyond Xiao Han's expectations. Such a high-level thing actually Blood Oath, without even needing to leave a Soul Imprint.

This anti-theft measure is truly worrying! Xiao Han wondered to himself if this puppet was worthless in the hands of that powerful figure from the Ten Thousand Puppets Sect, showing such a lack of regard for it!

We can only wait until he has thoroughly studied the inheritance and improved this anti-theft method.

With a flick of Xiao Han finger, crimson blood, radiating a faint but powerful aura, seeped from the wound. With a slight tremor, it shot straight towards the puppet's brow.

Faint ripples appeared as Xiao Han's blood slowly seeped into the puppet's brow.

About the time it takes for an incense stick to burn, a blue light flashed in the puppet's previously lifeless eyes as it looked at the intrigued Xiao Han. Then, it knelt on one knee.

"My lord!"

"Hmm." Xiao Han clicked his tongue inwardly, not expecting a puppet to have such high intelligence. This was far more advanced than some of the puppet-making methods circulating in Central Plains.

"Please, Lord, bestow a name upon us!"

"A name bestowed upon you?" Xiao Han was taken aback at first, then pondered carefully before saying, "From now on, you shall be called Puppet Saint!"

"Yes!" Puppet Saint replied expressionlessly.

"Go, find this person, and follow her orders from now on." Xiao Han gave his first command to the puppet, conveying Yi Huang's information to her and instructing her to go and join him.

"Yes!" the puppet replied simply, offering no further explanation.

However, Xiao Han overlooked one thing: this puppet's intelligence wasn't very high. Although it could understand human speech, it was very straightforward.

As a result, a big problem arose at the Langya Pavilion, but that's another story.

After the puppet left, Xiao Han continued to digest this Dou Sheng inheritance.

Before he knew it, Xiao Han was completely absorbed in the experience, and time flew by...

Northwest Continent, Black-Corner Region, Canaan Institute.

"Supreme Elder, this is something the clan leader requested to be sent. We hope you can pass it on to the Third Young Master," a man dressed in a blood-red robe with a shield badge bearing a giant sword on his chest said respectfully.

"Hmm." Xiao Lin sized up the attire of the Xiao Clan before him, frowning as he said, "Is that kid planning to rebuild the Judge?"

Xiao Lin was unaware of the judge's attire until Xiao Han provided the information.

After all, when the Xiao Clan was still around, the Judicator Legion had a reputation that was similar to or even surpassed that of the Gu Clan's Black Annihilation Army. Many forces in the Central Plains had records of them, so it was quite easy to figure out their attire.

However, Xiao Lin did not approve of Xiao Zhan's actions in rebuilding the Judges at this time. The Xiao Clan's strength was still too weak, and their numbers were less than a fraction of those of the Ancient Races. It was simply a disgrace to the Judges.

Moreover, he knew that before long, the Xiao Clan would be targeted. Rebuilding the Judge now was like lighting a lamp in the toilet—courting death.

The Xiao Clan, which even the judges remember, will undoubtedly be seen by the Soul Clan or the Soul Hall as a source of renewed vengeance, and the consequences are predictable!

"This is ridiculous!" Xiao Lin said with dissatisfaction.

Seemingly aware of what Xiao Lin meant, the member of the Xiao Clan's judges said, "Please rest assured, Supreme Elder, there are only fifty judges now, and they have already moved into the shadows, so they will not arouse suspicion."

Xiao Zhan knew how sensitive the appearance of the Judges would be, so he selected the most elite members of the Xiao Clan, focusing on their training. They were few in number, strong, and had the most potential. At the same time, their intelligence was also blocked.

The reason this person was dressed like this was simply to let Xiao Lin know this news.

"Tell him not to play with fire!" Xiao Lin knew he wasn't in a position to interfere in the Xiao Clan's affairs, but he offered a reminder, as this was a matter of life and death for the Xiao Clan and required utmost caution!

"Yes!" When the higher-ups spoke, he only needed to act as a mouthpiece.

"Go ahead!" Xiao Lin nodded and let the person leave.

After the member of the Xiao Clan left, Xiao Zhan glanced at the Storage Ring in his hand. There was a letter that Xiao Zhan had asked him to deliver, and he murmured, "Has the Dagger is Revealed?"

Xun Er walked alone in the Inner Academy of Canaan. The students passing by all turned their heads to look at this beautiful girl who had made a name for herself in the Inner Academy's Strong Ranking battle.

People greeted Xun Er from time to time, but she ignored them all.

Compared to her original gentle demeanor, which carried an aloofness that kept people at a distance, Xun Er now appeared somewhat indifferent and anxious.

"How should I tell Xiao Yan Gege?" Xun Er frowned slightly, her face bitter. Although she was very unwilling to be separated from Xiao Yan, Xun Er also knew that she could not disobey the clan's orders.

Only by returning to her family and receiving more comprehensive guidance, and becoming a stronger person, could she be qualified to control her own destiny. Otherwise, it would not be a good thing for either her or Xiao Yan.

Just as Xun Er was pondering her words of farewell to Xiao Yan, she suddenly felt the space around her gradually become sluggish.

Her expression turned cold, and a golden flame flashed in Xun Er's eyes. Just as Xun Er was about to use Secret Method to forcibly break through the surrounding space...

"Little girl, I advise you not to act rashly!" An old and calm voice rang in Xun Er's ears, causing her to pause in her movements.

After gathering her thoughts, Xun Er said coldly, "May I ask which senior is here? Aren't you afraid of offending Canaan Institute?"

As she spoke, Xun Er tried to activate the life-saving artifact her family had left her. If she could escape, the mysterious powerful figure would be finished.

"Hehe~"

"Since I dare to make a move here, what do you say?"

Just as Xun Er felt she was about to succeed, "Alright, stop your little tricks. If I wanted to take action, you wouldn't be alive now."

"Come with me!" An old man in a gray robe appeared before Xun Er and, before she could react, abruptly took her away.

Although this process took place in public, no one noticed anything unusual. Shortly after Xun Er disappeared, Ling Ying, who was in the distance, suddenly came to his senses and appeared at the place where Xun Er had disappeared. He searched everywhere but found nothing.

"Damn it, something's happened to Miss!" Ling Ying's face behind the mask was extremely ugly at this moment. Xun Er was a key person under the care of the Gu Clan. Her disappearance was enough to cause an earthquake.

But one sentence suddenly calmed Ling Ying down. "Don't worry, your young lady will be back safe and sound in an hour."

"Senior..." Ling Ying was sweating profusely, but he was helpless. He did not have the ability to oppose this powerful figure. It was clear that there was not enough time to send people from the clan. All he could do was wait.

They prayed that this mysterious powerful figure would keep his promise; otherwise, even if their Gu Clan tore him to pieces, nothing could be undone.

Compared to Ling Ying, who was frantically pacing around, Xun Er was unusually relaxed at the moment, but more surprised and puzzled.

"Elder Lin, what is the meaning of this?" Xun Er asked coldly from inside the pavilion. Anyone who was dragged here so inexplicably would not have a pleasant expression.

However, Xun Er also knew that since Elder Lin had only brought her to this pavilion, he should not have any ill intentions towards her, otherwise why would he go to such lengths?

Xiao Lin simply said one sentence, "My name is Xiao Lin."
