Lin Yu hadn't expected that his long speech just now wouldn't have had the slightest impact on Feng Changge's thoughts.

That damn brat pondered for ages and actually came up with this "perfect plan"!

Discuss it with the cultivators of the Twelve True Palaces!

Why doesn't that damned brat just give orders to the cultivators of the Twelve True Palaces?!

Lin Yu was so angry he was about to vomit blood, but Feng Changge thought he had come up with a brilliant idea and was overjoyed.

Now, Fengchang Pavilion and Fengchang Pavilion have been moved to a peculiar volcano by the teleportation spell of the cultivators of the Twelve True Palaces. The flames in this place may not be something that ordinary patrols can adapt to so quickly, or even be a burden.

However, Fengchang Pavilion is descended from the ancient Phoenix Clan, the most powerful demon beast race in terms of fire elemental power.

Even if he didn't deliberately use his source magic to resist these fire elements, they couldn't harm him in the slightest.

Ultimately, the Phoenix Clan's primordial fire is formed by condensing countless flames in the world and forging them through countless hammering and tempering processes.

This means that ordinary fire elements cannot harm the ancient phoenix clan in the slightest, because their primordial fire is essentially the same as those fire elements.

"Things are not as simple as you think, nor as straightforward as you believe!" Lin Yu was furious as he looked at the smug Feng Changge.

"How could the cultivators of those Twelve True Palaces so easily control people's hearts, just by telling them? If you compromise now, you'll likely find yourself even more powerless later."

"If you really decide to do this, you're handing over the right to choose to the cultivators of the Twelve True Palaces!"

"The choice is in your own hands. They will naturally make a decision that is most advantageous to them. At that time, even if you don't want to become their slave, it will probably be useless."

"Those cultivators from the Twelve True Palaces exploited your eagerness to leave this land, and that's why they chose this method to wear you down."

"Your anxiety only emboldens the cultivators of the Twelve True Palaces!"

Lin Yu launched into another long explanation, arguing that in the face of such a perilous situation, the only solution was for him to find a way to escape.

If you think you can rely on the cultivators of the Twelve True Palaces, you're dreaming, since a large portion of them are shameless scoundrels.

After being imprisoned on this land for generations by that so-called important figure, it's hard to guarantee that their intentions won't change.

Otherwise, they wouldn't have shifted their research focus to controlling people's minds; they should have relied on their own strength to break the restrictions!

As for the extent to which this so-called puppet would become, even Lin Yu himself couldn't say for sure. He only knew that this matter was definitely not simple.

According to some ancient books that Lin Yu had previously read, some puppetry techniques were extremely evil. Once a contract was signed, the puppeteer would become the puppet master's puppet for all eternity. Even if the puppeteer died and became a corpse, as long as it was not completely annihilated, it would still be under the puppet master's control.

Therefore, once a contract is formed with the cultivators of those Twelve True Palaces, the other party will not give Fengchang Pavilion any choice; they will have to follow their arrangements in everything they do.

Feng Changge was thinking of rushing back to deliver medicine to Lord Feng. If he were turned into a puppet, he might not even remember who "Lord Feng" was.

"Do you know how sinister that puppetry technique is? Once someone agrees, they can not only control the consciousness of others, but also their bodies."

"This means that as long as your body hasn't been destroyed, you're still under their control."

"By then, even if they leave the land of the Twelve True Palaces, they will only be a walking corpse, and will have no way to deliver the century-old medicinal herbs to Feng Nianzhi!"

Lin Yu looked sternly at Feng Changge and explained the art of puppetry.

Lin Yu was aware of the terrifying nature of puppetry, but judging from Feng Changge's fearless and ignorant demeanor, he clearly did not.

Sure enough, after hearing Lin Yu's explanation, Feng Changge, who had just been all righteous and awe-inspiring, couldn't help but shrink back.

Once the contract is signed, even the corpse will be under their control?

This is absolutely terrifying!

After hesitating for a moment, Feng Changge couldn't help but speak again, "Then tell me, what other way is there to escape? Didn't you say before that we could move freely within the land of the Twelve True Palaces?!"

"Look now, even though I used a teleportation technique, I managed to trap both of us."

When Feng Changge said this, there was a hint of complaint in his voice. Lin Yu had spoken so confidently before, and he had assumed that the other party was incredibly powerful, able to come to the land of the Twelve True Palaces and take centuries-old medicinal herbs as easily as taking candy from a baby.

Unexpectedly, they stumbled when it came to this teleportation technique.

The two of them can continue to stay on the land of the Twelve True Palaces, but it is unknown how much longer the Phoenix Lord can wait.

Thinking of this, Feng Changge felt extremely anxious. On the one hand, he was anxious to leave the Twelve True Palaces as soon as possible, and on the other hand, he was worried about the puppet technique that Lin Yu had mentioned.

After all this trouble, he was caught in a dilemma: he couldn't agree to the demands of the cultivators from the Twelve True Palaces, nor could he refuse!

Hearing Feng Changge's complaints, Lin Yu shook his head helplessly again. If he really came alone, he could just pack up and leave, right?

Unfortunately, there's still the Phoenix Pavilion!

This teleportation technique is nothing special for Lin Yu to use on himself, but there's Feng Changge right next to him.

Because of the special restrictions on the land of the Twelve True Palaces, Lin Yu's teleportation technique would be interrupted, making it impossible for him to take Feng Changge with him when he left.

What Feng Changge didn't know was that his coming along this time actually caused trouble for Lin Yu.

However, Lin Yu naturally did not intend to tell Feng Changge about this matter.

Knowing that brat's personality, if I told him, wouldn't he blame himself for days and nights again?

Lin Yu had no choice but to think of another way; it seemed that breaking the spell was the only option left.

After a brief deduction, Lin Yu calculated that the fire element in this place should be able to be forcibly extinguished using his source technique power.

Unfortunately, forcibly extinguishing the flames, while preventing them from reappearing, also altered the magnetic field of the area.

All of this is just Lin Yu's own speculation; whether it's feasible or not, he still needs to try it out.
