"It seems the ancients were not wrong, Chi Wenyan, the chanical Puppets in your villa, their human anatomy is indeed complete."
Looking at the man’s calm face with bright eyes, Chi Wenyan started to feel increasingly uneasy.
He too had never seen puppet dolls without clothes, and could only manage a forced smile and say: "Their components should indeed be intact and complete, right?"
The man frowned slightly, said nothing, and naturally reached out his hand to explore beneath the doll, as if he were appraising rchandise.
Soon, the man’s tightly furrowed brows relaxed.
"Hmm, it’s quite good."
Chi Wenyan felt all the hairs on his body stand on edge, his face went pale.
The man seed amused by his reaction, withdrew his hand, and calmly said:
"However, the puppet is too weak-looking, which I do not like.
Since you have so many puppets, pick one that is tall and robust for , one that’s sturdy and durable. As for the others, I’m not planning to take them, so you can keep them."
Sturdy... durable?
Not just Chi Wenyan, even those cultivators who awoke felt chills as they looked at him as if he were a pervert.
Yin Baishuang trembled, her expression full of disgust, whispered softly beside Baili An:
"Fortunately, you changed your appearance, though this face is handso, it’s not what this person prefers.
Otherwise, just having him stare at you makes feel dirty."
Baili An did not think this man had any peculiar hobby; his gaze towards the attendants was too calm.
Though it hid a fervent quality, it was unrelated to desire.
If he was simply interested in Shifang City’s chanical Technique, why explore so thoroughly, even down to the puppet components?
This man, truly exudes strangeness in every way.
However, Yin Baishuang’s little mouth seed to possess uncanny power.
Hardly had she spoken, the man’s gaze drifted over, pausing right on Baili An.
He let out a light hiss, almost unable to look away, even neglecting Chi Wenyan, and walked swiftly over.
He firmly pinched Baili An’s chin, his eyes exceptionally bright, and began sizing him up intently.
The man’s gaze felt like it was laced with poison, making people extrely uneasy, as if he had chosen his ideal rchandise.
He nodded repeatedly: "Graceful and refined, as if soaked in orchid essence, not rely handso in appearance, but the bone structure beneath exceeds outward beauty, really good, truly good."
Everyone was shaken, and language failed to capture the shock this man imparted upon them.
Unless blind, what normal man wouldn’t glance at the delicate, supple beauty nearby?
And yet, he fixated on a handsoly masculine man, unwilling to blink.
Ying Ji, preparing sedatives beside Baili An while feigning weakness, glanced sharply with cold eyes, her dark, glowing eyes starting to sink, replaced by a deep chill.
Baili An signaled her with his eyes, Ying Ji coldly snorted, suppressing the urge to tear this person apart.
Baili An withdrew his gaze, lifted his head, confronting the man’s fiery and greedy eyes without flinching, calmly said:
"You arrive here at midnight and still refuse to show your true face; such vigilance is quite excessive."
The man’s facial muscles stiffened briefly, then smiled: "Indeed, you possess keen eyes."
Over the campfire, the pot bubbled and boiled, the broth clearly ready.
The man stood up, casting a faint glance at Chi Wenyan.
Chi Wenyan imdiately bowed his head deeply, listening to the man’s exceptionally cold voice:
"I won’t concern myself with the vile deeds you conduct with won in the villa, but given our collaboration, I hope you handle matters cleanly.
Using mortals before was excusable, but tonight you’ve entangled so many cultivators. You should know killing these cultivators is a grave sin."
"Given they’ve seen today, there’s no reason for them to stay alive."
The cultivators, awakening en masse, were furious and desperate.
Although powerless, they began struggling frantically, unwilling to be led to slaughter.
The man’s voice was chillingly emotionless despite its calmness: "Then grind their flesh and blood into mud as fertilizer, and next year your tea estate will surely thrive. I might co to you for a few cups of tea. As for this person..."
He stared intently at Baili An, saying: "Let take him along with your puppet?"
Chi Wenyan thought, well, after this ordeal, master and servant, man and woman end up being treated equally.
Bah! Doing the sa thieving and deceptive deeds, yet having the nerve to call him dirty.
Who knows who is really the dirtier one!
But fortunately, no matter how handso the man is, he never felt any inclination towards him, nothing to regret.
Luckily, the companion beside that Ying Ji is a stunning beauty, in the end, isn’t she just a bargain for him?
Chi Wenyan was happily thinking, when unexpectedly the man let out a light chuckle, as if only now realizing Yin Baishuang’s outstanding appearance.
His eyes revealed a hint of amazent, and he laughed softly: "This appearance truly is exceptional. I didn’t expect this secluded estate to let run into two mortal treasures all at once. Wonderful, I’ll take this woman too."
"This, this, this..." Chi Wenyan’s face changed dramatically!
Turns out this is soone who enjoys both n and won!
Yin Baishuang’s almond eyes widened slightly, finding it all incredibly unbelievable.
In past years traveling the mortal world, so insidious characters who didn’t know her identity had often set their sights on her.
Yet she never imagined one day she would be desired alongside her beloved by the sa vile character, and he would try to take both of them away.
Indeed, the world is vast and full of wonders.
Ultimately, one’s arm can’t twist a thigh; when the man tossed five porcelain bottles to Chi Wenyan and said:
"Three bottles of White Jade Red Sun Pill in exchange for this lad, the remaining two for her."
Between beauty and life, Chi Wenyan naturally chose to preserve his own life.
Instantly acquiring five bottles of White Jade Red Sun Pill, Chi Wenyan bead with joy.
Yin Baishuang initially felt curious, but her mood suddenly soured.
Turns out her beauty is even cheaper than little An’s, one bottle less. This man is outrageous!
Seeing Chi Wenyan about to hand Baili An and Yin Baishuang over, Li Jiujiu’s heart grew heavier with guilt.
If only she hadn’t been careless and ignored Ji Xinnian’s warning, how would she have ended up in such a predicant?
Pitifully, the pair were both fragile people without cultivation, even if the man was intelligent a thousand tis over.
Faced with such cunning demons, there was no way they could manage.
Thinking back to that night, he appeared in her room when he sensed sothing amiss with the estate, hoping to seek her help.
She ultimately was too arrogant and careless.
"Stop, you two! Don’t take them away!" Li Jiujiu shouted sharply, her delicate brows raised.
Chi Wenyan chuckled, "Li Immortal girl, even now, the hot-blood in your bones hasn’t cooled. You truly want to save everyone, not realizing you’re the sheep entering the tiger’s den, unable to save yourself!"
Ji Yinyin was also extrely anxious, "At a ti like this, why are you showing off? Are you looking to get yourself killed?!"
Chi Wenyan leisurely rolled up his sleeves, his eyelashes covered his gaze, as he laughed lowly:
"Tonight, I shall teach Li Immortal girl a lesson that in this world, things may not always go as you wish. Standing out recklessly will only harm yourself and those around you."
On the old beams above, a sudden sound of ’creak creak’ echoed, as if sothing was lurking and moving up there.
Just as the sound began, a huge shadow suddenly swooped down from above, before anyone could see what it was, the shadow shot out claws shrouded in black mist, ready to bite at Ji Yinyin from above!
Clearly, Chi Wenyan saw that among this group, Ji Yinyin had the best relationship with Li Jiujiu.
His very cruel actions were ant to warn Li Jiujiu.
In his hands, life and death are beyond one’s control; speaking out of turn in an inappropriate situation would co with a bloody price.
Ji Yinyin felt death approaching, scread once, and closed her eyes in despair.
In this critical mont, the vines binding Li Jiujiu snapped one by one.
Brilliant lights burst forth around her, two chanical puppets shot out from her Qiankun Bag!
