Sixth Soul Skill: Flute-Guided Mirror Puppet

After confirming that Lu Xuan was responsible, the group exchanged hurried glances, a sliver of hope still lingering in their eyes.

"Take him down! Maybe there's still a chance to salvage the situation!"

The thought crossed their minds, and without further hesitation, they charged towards Lu Xuan with their remaining Soul Power.

Lu Xuan quietly watched the crowd rushing towards him, then pressed his lips to the Black Jade Divine Flute once more, and the melodious flute music began again.

Sixth Soul Skill: [Flute-Guided Mirror Puppet]!

Buzz!

As the sound of the flute rippled through the air, several figures appeared out of thin air. Their appearance and figure were exactly the same as those of the robbers; they were their own reflections.

This is Lu Xuan's Sixth Soul Skill, Flute-Guided Mirror Puppet.

It can reflect the enemy and create an identical image puppet to fight in his place.

The puppet can perfectly replicate the opponent's Soul Ring and all their Soul Skill, without any discrepancies.

Moreover, Lu Xuan could use his first Second Soul Skill to amplify it, making the strength of this image puppet surpass that of the original.

The downside is that powerful puppets consume an extremely high amount of Soul Power.

Advantages: Uncompromising copy. With just this one Soul Skill, Lu Xuan was enough to contend with Peerless Douluo.

The strongest among the group before him was only Soul Elder, and now they only had three pale Ten-Year Soul Ring left. Replicating them was a piece of cake for Lu Xuan. The Soul Power consumed by activating the puppets could not even keep up with the speed at which his own Soul Power naturally recovered.

In the blink of an eye, these bandits who had attempted to rob and plunder were all killed in the battle with the puppet.

Lu Xuan didn't bother to look at the mess on the ground. He spurred his horse, and the group continued on their way.

Ye Lingling had already witnessed the terror of this Sixth Soul Skill. Even she herself had been copied and imprinted, and the healing methods performed by that puppet were in no way inferior to hers.

Even though she had expected it, she still couldn't help but be amazed when she saw Lu Xuan use the [Flute-Guided Mirror Puppet].

"This is the Soul Skill that Brother Lu Xuan spent months in the Far North, determined to obtain," Ye Lingling murmured, her gaze falling on the young man beside her. "With your meticulous search for Soul Ring, it's hard to find another person in this world who can compare to you."

Most Soul Master, upon encountering a Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast, would be unable to restrain themselves and would do everything in their power to hunt it down and absorb it.

But for Lu Xuan, Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast that doesn't fit his plan will be discarded directly.

Let alone Soul Ring, Lu Xuan still has a Hundred Thousand Year Soul Bone he hasn't absorbed yet!

"Aren't you two the same?" Lu Xuan turned his head and smiled, slowly saying, "Soul Ring and Soul Skill are never necessarily better the rarer they are; the most suitable one is the best."

Dugu Yan nodded deeply, agreeing wholeheartedly.

Her current set of Soul Skill complements each other; each time she absorbs Soul Ring, the previous Soul Skill also stack and evolve. The most satisfying thing is that the power of her Soul Skill stacks, but the mana consumption does not increase.

The mana cost of a thousand-year-old Soul Skill was used to unleash the power of Ten-Thousand-Year Soul Skill.

Ye Lingling, standing to the side, also liked her current Soul Skill, but she longed to cultivate her Second Martial Soul as soon as possible.

In the evening, the three rode the Clear-Charm Spirit-Horned Deer to Element City.

Lu Xuan arrived at the hotel and booked a deluxe room.

After enduring so much wind and rain and sleeping outdoors for so long, the three of them could finally enjoy a comfortable shower and a meal.

Dugu Yan and Ye Lingling didn't treat Lu Xuan like an outsider at all, and didn't avoid him in the slightest.

Lu Xuan, not considering himself an outsider, went straight into the bath.

The next morning, as dawn broke, Lu Xuan and the other two walked out of the inn together.

They originally planned to head straight back to Heaven Dou City, but before they had gone far from the hotel, they saw a small group of people gathered in the distance, where a lively emotional entanglement was unfolding.

Upon closer inspection, it was clear that a boy from the Godwind Academy was fawning over a girl from the Blazing Fire Academy, trying his best to please her. However, the girl remained indifferent, clearly showing no interest in his advances.

Is it Feng Xiaotian and Huo Wu?

Lu Xuan had some guesses in his heart, but he did not stop to watch this farce any longer.

He turned his head to look at Dugu Yan and Ye Lingling, and said softly, "Let's go."

"Okay." Ye Lingling didn't recognize Huo Wu Feng Xiaotian. She only glanced at the two entangled figures before giving up.

She raised her hand and summoned the Clear-Charm Spirit-Horned Deer. The three of them mounted the deer and were about to set off.

Just then, a harsh word drifted into Lu Xuan's ears on the wind.

"Feng Xiaotian, stop wasting your time! I have absolutely no interest in you!" Huo Wu pointed at Feng Xiaotian, her voice sharp as she scolded, "I wouldn't even look at someone like you! I'd rather be that handsome brother's concubine than be with you!"

Upon Huo Wu Wu's words, Feng Xiaotian felt as if his heart had been struck by a heavy hammer, shattering into pieces like broken glass on the ground, never to be pieced back together.

Lu Xuan, who was about to drive the deer away, was unexpectedly caught in this disaster and felt utterly speechless.

"Do I look like someone who accepts anything?" Lu Xuan was speechless for a moment, then muttered to himself, "How could she think I'm some kind of junk collector who'd take anything?"

Ye Lingling spoke calmly, "They probably don't recognize their own position and think they're very important."

If it weren't for Lu Xuan's interference, Huo Wu would indeed be considered a genius girl in the same league as Dugu Yan and Ye Lingling.

But now, under Lu Xuan's careful guidance, Dugu Yan and Ye Lingling have been together for five years. Their foundation and strength have far surpassed Huo Wu's, and an insurmountable gap has already formed between them.

Lu Xuan had no intention of getting entangled with the other party. In his opinion, Huo Wu was just Huo Wu on impulse, using him as a shield to get rid of Feng Xiaotian. Her actions were reckless and lacked consideration.

But in the blink of an eye, he realized that Feng Xiaotian was just as clueless.

Upon hearing Huo Wu's words, a surge of jealousy instantly consumed Feng Xiaotian's reason. Instead of pursuing the absurdity of Huo Wu's words, he directed all his resentment at Lu Xuan.

Feng Xiaotian's gaze was fixed firmly on Lu Xuan, and he loudly invited, "Brother, how about a thrilling duel between Soul Master!"

"Feng Xiaotian, Martial Soul Gale Twin-Headed Wolf, Level 32 Power Attack System Soul Elder!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Feng Xiaotian had already completed the Martial Soul Possession.

The majestic Gale Twin-Headed Wolf appeared, possessing both terrifying explosive power and swift movement, truly worthy of being a top-tier mutated Beast Martial Soul.

Seeing Feng Xiaotian's jealous and childish demeanor, Lu Xuan was speechless.

You're really obsessed with two heads, aren't you?

Lu Xuan didn't even bother to release his Martial Soul; he simply extended a wisp of spiritual power and gently guided it, locking onto Feng Xiaotian's figure.

Unable to control his own destiny Feng Xiaotian abruptly changed direction and rushed straight to Huo Wu in a few steps.

While Feng Xiaotian was indeed impulsive and reckless, Huo Wu, who casually used herself as a shield and deliberately provoked Huo Wu, was no better.

Since that's the case, let the two of them fight it out on their own.

Soon, under the guidance and manipulation of Lu Xuan's invisible spiritual power, the two actually began to wrestle.

Feng Xiaotian raised his hand and slapped Huo Wu across the face, while Huo Wu, her eyes red, kicked him hard. The back-and-forth exchange of slaps and kicks was both lively and absurd.

Lu Xuan glanced at it coldly for a moment, then stopped looking. He took Dugu Yan and Ye Lingling, mounted the Clear-Charm Spirit-Horned Deer, and drove them on their way south, leaving this farce far behind.
