A strange mocking laughter echoed.
The Puppet Master suddenly realized sothing, turned back in shock, only to see that all puppets within a two-hundred-ter range had their consciousness severed, and collapsed to the ground.
"Finally got you to co out."
As he turned his head, he saw that Xu Xiaoyou, who was previously controlled by the strings, had already broken free and shouted, "Tang Xin!"
The latter reacted swiftly, chanting softly, as the starry sky resonated and the stars perford their ensemble!
The entire sky above the Church was shimring brilliantly, and the blessings of the stars descended upon everyone.
Multiple Rune Star Rings locked onto Xu Xiaoyou's body, emitting a brilliance of radiant colors, and layers of halos surged beneath Xu Xiaoyou like a deep starry river.
The effects of the [Star Ensemble] began to take effect.
The Puppet Master's face contorted with a grimace, seeing the girl charging towards him, he swung his hand abruptly, "Don't let this madwoman near !"
From behind the two of them, countless strings from the Puppet Mother stabbed towards Xu Xiaoyou's back, but they only passed through the girl's body, dissipating into nothingness in an instant.
"Can't be targeted?" The Puppet Master was stunned in place, muttering in a trance, "No, it's a priority determination..."
In the next mont, Xu Xiaoyou swept past the Puppet Master, with the power of five layers of enhancents, not even a Three Tier Puppet Master like him could possibly withstand her attack.
With a single strike severing the opponent's throat, the massive form of the Puppet Mother also faded away with a mournful cry, taking most of the puppets with it.
Xu Xiaoyou, however, did not stop her steps, her expression unchanged, racing wildly again towards Lin Sheng's direction!
In an instant, she was in front of Lin Sheng, who reacted quickly, revealing his true appearance; his black robe fluttered wildly, and the plaster head on his face had dozens of eyes opened.
Everyone was shocked, looking towards Yorick, who had previously had his throat slit by Xu Xiaoyou, and then at 'Lin Sheng', not understanding what had happened.
'Another Puppet Master?' This thought erged in everyone's mind.
"When did you discover ?" 'Lin Sheng' said in a deep voice.
"Does it matter?" Xu Xiaoyou's gaze was calm.
The opponent's combat skills showed far better than Yorick's, wielding the Beheading Great Saber, clashing with Xu Xiaoyou multiple tis, holding his ground, and after Xu Xiaoyou activated the Mont of Destiny with the Hundred-sided Dice, he also shook off all negative enhancents and entered a frenzied state.
Then, he activated the Blood Boiling Fury again, intending to forcibly kill the girl before him and tear open a path to escape!
However, the latter had no intention of entangling with him, she raised an imperceptible smile:
"Tang Xin, transfer the benefits!"
'Lin Sheng' felt a sense of foreboding internally, turned his head sharply, to see Lin Xing, freed from puppet control, appear behind him, showing multiple enhancents with red eyes.
"What did you do to my brother?"
"Where is he now!" The young man shouted, never before losing his composure so much, like a ferocious beast.
The man's throat churned, and as he thrust out his dagger, breaking his weapon, continuously piercing his throat, the palpable killing intent in the young man's eyes made him feel terrified.
Even when suffering such a deadly injury, the man still made a final resistance, his eyes bloodshot, clutching his throat, now with an extra hole; blood gushed out continuously.
Like an Evil Ghost, he gritted his teeth, his throat making a hissing noise like a leaky wind, blood pouring into his lungs, facing Xu Xiaoyou's silent and cold gaze; as if looking at a corpse.
He let out a cold laugh, and a golden bell descended from the sky with a majestic aura, enclosing his body, while his skin slowly beca transparent, as if slipping into the unreal.
"He has a Forbidden Object for escaping!" Chen San loudly reminded.
"Give back my brother!!"
Lin Xing howled madly, charging forward, continuously stabbing the Donghuang Bell with the Snake Fang Daggers, but could only leave shallow marks on the bell, finally getting bounced back a hundred ters away in a long, ancient bell chi.
"Save your strength, although it's a fake Donghuang Bell, it's not sothing a guy like you can break." The man sneered.
Seeing the man about to escape, Xu Xiaoyou's gaze subtly shifted, as if sensing sothing, she reached towards Yorick's direction.
A strong Spiritual Power resonated in the void, pulsating!
A Bone Whip, a hundred sections long, appeared in the girl's hand, drawing explosive sounds in the air!
In the instant of holding this Bone Whip, countless mories not belonging to her flooded into her mind.
She saw a city with everything withering under a blood-red, remnant sky.
She saw people beneath the fallen Stars, their expressions numb and desolate.
She saw countless lives living in fear, yearning for death and release.
She heard the echoes of despair and pain in this bizarre world.
She witnessed the entire world falling apart, crimson rifts severing the continents, black seawater flooding the cities, cyclonic hurricanes ravaging, destroying everything.
The illusory shadow called "Heartstealer" lood over the cerulean sky.
She shook her head, not having the ti to ponder too much, suddenly waving the long whip, lashing towards the man's direction.
The long whip resonated with the void, bursts erupted from the air, the power capable of tearing space spread from her wrist to the end of the whip.
The man's smile vanished, turning to terror. The eerie long whip pierced the Donghuang Bell, wrapped around his neck, solidifying his elusive body, the fierce aura from the whip leaving him with no intention to resist, kneeling on the ground.
Xu Xiaoyou tugged the long whip, pulling the man's entire body out of the Donghuang Bell, leaving him kneeling pitifully before her.
After doing all this, her spiritual power was quickly drained, exhausted. The previously seen scenes appeared like an old film rolling in front of her eyes, repeatedly replaying.
Before fainting, she heard Tang Xin's anxious voice, finally falling into the soft white iris flowers...
...
When Xu Xiaoyou woke up again, the group was already on the way back.
Outside the car window was dusk, the sight of the wilderness flying by, flurries of snowflakes falling into the car, landing on her face.
The icy coolness made her consciousness clearer, just sitting up from the girl's legs, severe stabbing pain ca from her head, like a drill stirring inside, causing her brow to furrow tightly.
Those scenes flashed again in her mind, but this ti only vague fragnts remained.
She vaguely rembered seeing the enormous shadow on the cerulean sky before fainting.
Tang Xin saw her awake, eyes lit up, gently cradled her head in her arms, lessening the pain from the bumps.
"Your vital signs once made consider throwing you to the mole physician at Life Daylight after returning to the city, they're the best at handling your situation."
"I rember they're funeral directors..."
Xu Xiaoyou still had a bit of a headache, but the faint fragrance from the girl slled very comfortable.
The dusk outside the window was beautiful, the wind in the wilderness like aimless travelers, blowing makes the heart feel pleasantly free, making one want to sing out for it.
Chen San seed in a good mood: "Your situation was not much better then, body convulsing violently, heartbeat almost stopped, well... pulse was no different from a dead person, just makeup and could be buried, you should be thankful the person beside you knows so dical first aid asures."
Chen San wisely avoided the topic of the Hundred-Section Whip, anyone could see that the long whip was not simple, judging from the final display, it seed to possess the ability to disregard and slice through space, its power even breaking the golden bell.
Xu Xiaoyou looked at Tang Xin, the latter blinked as she looked at her, giving a calm smile: "It's wonderful that You is okay."
"Don't worry, he didn't manage to escape. People from Cosmic Heavy Industries have taken him away. Although the entrusted process was sowhat twisted, it is completed."
"Really didn't expect the puppet master nad Yorick to have an older brother, Yorif, who in Cosmic Heavy Industries' records should have died in an orphanage over twenty years ago. Unexpectedly, all these years, he has been lurking like a ghost beside his younger brother, handling tricky matters for him."
"Like his brother's shadow, he also possesses puppet control abilities, but unlike his brother, not having the strength to manipulate a hundred puppets simultaneously through Mimicry Puppet Mother."
"Compared to puppetry, he is more adept at disguise, able to change appearance and take his brother's place at major family gatherings in Chichu Heaven."
Talking about shadow, Lin Xing sitting quietly by the window beca more deeply pensive.
"Since before departure, his brother Yorif had been following us all along, truly didn't expect 'Lin Sheng' to be..." Chen San's gaze was complex, he glanced at Lin Xing through the front mirror before sighing, "When did you start noticing sothing was wrong with him?"
Xu Xiaoyou rubbed her forehead: "From the ti in the Fars Mountains when I asked if he had seen any strange individuals, his answer was dubious."
"If simply from passing by, he could control his brother, then why could this brother escape?"
"But at that ti, it was just suspicion, speculating both brothers might be controlled by puppets."
"Further clues in the village and near the Church made suspect he is a puppet master himself, finally concluding he and Yorick are twin brothers."
Unless Yorick had ti-space teleportation abilities, judging from the ti distribution, he couldn't possibly be approaching the Shadow Brothers in the city while organizing things hundreds of kiloters away from the city.
Of course, she had nurous opportunities to resolve the elder brother Yorif, but that would lead to the other mber escaping; to capture both brothers, she had to have the patience of a wolf, waiting for the final mont.
The opponent dared not rashly attack them from the beginning to the end, surely due to fearing Tang Xin's group support abilities, which could turn the tide of battle.
Indeed, with [Star Ensemble] plus her previously recorded Mont of Destiny in the Hundred-sided Dice, she managed to overturn the established outco at the last mont.
As for that gigantic shadow and the abilities displayed by the Hundred-Section Whip at the end, her mind was extrely chaotic and exhausted, planning to think after returning to the city.
Thinking this, Xu Xiaoyou peacefully rested again on the girl's slender, soft legs, closed her eyes, and slept.
