A New Puppet Slave

"Go to hell with you, dare you or not!"

After Zhou Ning released the signal talisman, he urged the black boat to dive down, avoiding the two pursuers.

As a result, that damn red flying boat also headed straight for him, as if it had been aimed at him.

Zhou Ning was furious. He had thought the young lady was a decent person, but he never expected her to drag him down with her and make him a scapegoat!

For a moment, he even had the urge to unleash Great Fire Dragon Talisman on the young lady.

Something's not right.

Zhou Ning scanned with his Divine Sense and saw that Su Yunjin was delirious and on the verge of fainting.

"It's too late!" Judging from the distance between them, he would be caught up before the young lady completely lost consciousness.

The result was that the old man in gray beat them both to death.

Seeing that the red flying boat neither dodged nor avoided the collision, it was about to crash into the ship in mid-air.

In that instant, Zhou Ning stepped onto the flying boat, leaped into the air, instantly retracted the black boat, and then used his master-level lightness skill to land on the red boat, riding the wind.

The Daoist Mu behind him was stunned and exclaimed, "What a brilliant boat-jumping technique!"

"Qi Refining Sixth Layer cultivator possesses such abilities; however, they all must die!"

He pulled out a dark blue chain, swung it forward sharply, and looped it around the two men on the boat.

As soon as Zhou Ning boarded the ship, he found that Su Yunjin had closed her eyes and fainted, as if she had gotten what she wanted.

You've really ruined me!

He seized the opportunity to take control of the red boat, channeling his magical Law Power to stabilize the trembling vessel and aim it toward Bamboo Creek Island.

At the same time, he sensed the chains coming from behind, and without stopping, he skillfully cast a Great Water Dragon Talisman.

The water on the lake surface condensed into a surging water dragon, leaping out and biting at the chains with immense force.

The Daoist Mu was stunned. This boy wasn't even at the late stage, yet the speed at which he activated the talismans was far too fast.

He controlled the Azure Centipede Vine to shrink back, and at the same time summoned a jade seal magic Law Artifact, which instantly expanded to the size of a house.

The water jet crashed into it, and with a loud bang, it exploded into spray.

"A mere trick!" the Daoist Mu scoffed.

Even if another First-Tier Superior-Grade Law Technique were to appear...

The next moment, he froze in shock as three enormous water dragons materialized on the lake, lunging at him from three directions with bared fangs and claws!

One of them even had gray shuttles pulled straight out from the bottom.

The Daoist Mu abruptly stopped the gray shuttle, summoning a small brownish-yellow shield. The shield expanded in the wind, splitting into three parts, which spun rapidly around the gray shuttle, condensing into a flawless, earthen-yellow light shield that blocked the three water dragons.

"Damn it!" Daoist Mu was truly enraged.

At the Qi Refining Sixth Layer, the last time he was in such a sorry state was when he was chasing down that fast-running Alchemist!

He held nothing back, pushing the gray shuttle to its limits.

Zhou Ning inspected the red boat and found that it couldn't even hold Spirit Stone. What kind of garbage was this?

He could only infuse it with his own Law Power.

Fortunately, the [Xinsi Golden Scripture]'s Law Power was very condensed, and when activated, it was not much slower than Su Yunjin was at the Qi Refining Ninth Layer, activating the flying boat.

That was without him using his full strength; otherwise, I have a feeling he could have surpassed Su Yunjin.

Seeing that the gray shuttle had closed the distance again, Zhou Ning threw out another Great Water Dragon Talisman.

He felt a slight pang of regret; this talisman was worth over three hundred catties of spirit rice.

This time, however, the old man in gray, wearing a shield, withstood the impact of the water dragon, broke through the waves, and his speed was not reduced much.

"Oh no." Zhou Ning had a bad feeling.

The gray shuttle was clearly faster than the red boat. If Zhou Ning increased his Law Power to speed up, it would not be in line with his Qi Refining Sixth Layer of Qi Refining.

He gazed at the small fishing boats on the lake. If his retainers were to see them, the Su Household would surely interrogate him afterwards.

"Fry him with Fire Furuncle Fruit?"

"No, such a thing doesn't seem to exist in this world. Although it could be mixed into a fireball and detonated, there's no guarantee that something won't go wrong."

"It should not be used unless absolutely necessary."

Zhou Ning swallowed a Qi-replenishing pill, and as he watched the rapidly approaching gray shuttle, a plan flashed in his eyes.

He continuously made hand Hand Seals.

On the lake, it was Yan Dahu's turn to be on duty in the afternoon.

He set up a small tea table on the boat, arranged broad bean flowers and cold pig's ear salad, and drank some millet wine. His life was wonderful, priceless!

The sun was shining brightly that day, and he caught a glimpse of a red light flashing in the sky.

"Could it be that a rare treasure has appeared? Am I going to strike it rich?"

Yuan Dahu was also a master of Spirit Eye Technique. He saw the red light getting closer and closer, followed by a gray shuttle, with water dragons gathering from time to time and Spiritual Qi fluctuating.

He recalled once again the day he was ambushed by the Guo Household cultivators on Bamboo Creek Island.

"Damn it, enemy attack!"

Yuan Dahu sprang up nimbly and plunged into the lake. "Behold my Water Escape Technique!"

Vanished in an instant.

As the Daoist Mu passed by, he casually unleashed a Wind Blade Talisman, slicing the small boat in two as easily as cutting tofu.

"You're lucky you ran fast!"

Having reached this point, Daoist Mu's expression turned serious. They were now close to the heart of the Su Household's territory. If a Foundation Establishment cultivator were to come after them, he would likely be killed in just a few exchanges.

Thinking of the two escape talismans in his hand, Daoist Mu felt much more at ease, which was why he dared to risk going deep into the Su Household to pursue and kill them.

Otherwise, even if he had eight times the courage, he wouldn't dare to entertain the slightest thought.

"I will be able to kill him in the time it takes for an incense stick to burn!"

As the flying boat drew near, the Daoist Mu's expression gradually turned grim, his previous benevolence vanishing.

After Zhou Ning finished performing the Method Formula, he took out a blue talisman and casually activated it.

Then, with a sudden, forceful lift, he pulled the weight up with one hand.

In an instant, the lake surface boiled and surged, and a dark, dense network of water solidified, rising abruptly from bottom to top.

Then, the head net heads towards the gray shuttle.

The Daoist Mu was startled. "What talisman?"

He was chasing too fast and couldn't dodge at all. He was directly covered by the earth shield, but fortunately, the earth shield around him protected him and he was not injured.

Zhou Ning grabbed the black water net, which tightened instantly, and pulled it downwards.

The rapidly moving gray shuttle was abruptly pulled towards the water's surface.

"Boom!" The water surface trembled, and water vapor exploded everywhere.

He glanced at the disheveled old man in gray inside and couldn't help but chuckle.

"Little Sister Li's ' Profound Water Spirit-Binding Net ' is really useful!"

If used to catch Fuluo Eel, its efficiency would definitely be no less than that of Yuan Dahu's gang.

As for the blue talisman from earlier, it was merely a water-based talisman he used to conceal it.

Zhou Ning piloted the red boat into the air; Bamboo Creek Island was not far from here.

A few breaths later, the gray shuttle took off from the lake again. Although the Daoist Mu was not injured, he had made a blunder, and his face was extremely gloomy.

"You bastard, I will kill you!"

When he caught up with them on the island, he was shocked to find that Hongzhou had retreated into a small courtyard.

The Daoist Mu rushed forward. The courtyard was encased in a formation, making everything inside blurry and impossible to see clearly.

At this moment, Zhou Ning sent out two more red signal talismans.

Then he felt relieved. The formation in the courtyard, now strengthened by Su Youyou, could withstand attacks from Foundation Establishment cultivators for a while.

Moreover, he was merely a Qi Refining Ninth Layer Perfection.

Zhou Ning had more important things to do.

He gently laid Su Yunjin on the ground. At this moment, the young lady was unconscious, with a trace of pain in her eyes.

Zhou Ning's expression shifted, and a dark cyan, fuzzy ball of light appeared in his palm—this was Vine Puppet Seed.

He had just examined her and found that Su Yunjin was poisoned, her spiritual energy was stagnant, and her injuries were extremely serious.

If he used the Jade Graceful Branch, he could save them, but what right did he have to do so? Expose himself?

But it's different with the Vine Puppet Seed. From now on, the direct descendant of the Su Household, Foundation Establishment seed, will become his puppet.

From now on, entering and leaving the Su Household will be as easy as entering an empty place!

Without further hesitation, Zhou Ning formed Method Formula and pointed it at the top of Su Yunjin: "Yi Wood Condenses Seed, Command Immediately Response!"

He was about to activate the Vine Puppet Seed, causing it to burrow into Su Yunjin's ear.

However, the next moment, the clump of fluffy lines remained completely still.

Zhou Ning was utterly astonished. "She's only at the Qi Refining Ninth Layer, so why is her Divine Sense almost as strong as mine?"
