Chapter 443: Shanzun and the Blood Puppet (1)
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
Marquis Wu’an’s emotions were like a hidden abyss, making it impossible to tell what he was thinking.
He turned his head and swept his gaze around. He lowered his palm and looked at Lin Yan. “What do you plan to do with these people?”
The surrounding seventh-stage Noble Realm cultivators and Prince Jing all looked at Marquis Wu’an.
“What do you mean?” Lin Yan asked in confusion.
“They are all important figures in Qianyuan Prefecture, but they are Puppet People in secret. They have done many dark things to people including me. I was framed by them and became a Puppet Person.”
“Marquis Wu’an, do you want to take revenge on them?”
Marquis Wu’an shook his head. “What I mean is, do you have enough energy to control them and rule Qianyuan Prefecture?”
Lin Yan frowned. Marquis Wu’an was too sharp. As a servant, he acutely sensed that Lin Yan didn’t have the energy and time to control eight people.
Especially since these eight people were top officials of the Qianyuan Prefecture, they definitely had many complicated matters. Normally speaking, Lin Yan would naturally let them follow the old system. They would do whatever they originally did.
However, this way, Lin Yan didn’t have the energy to care about what they did that was related to the Puppet People.
“Marquis Wu’an, is there any way?”
“Leave it to me,” said Marquis Wu’an Ling Jingming seriously. “Leave their command to me. I’ll do it for you.”
Lin Yan raised his eyebrows and looked at Marquis Wu’an seriously. Marquis Wu’an’s expression was calm and at ease because he clearly knew that this was Lin Yan’s best choice.
However, Lin Yan didn’t know what selfish motives Marquis Wu’an had for making this request and what he wanted to do.
“The thoughts hidden in the Heart Image are black boxes that can’t be detected or opened… Alright, 1 can hand over their command to you.
“There’s only one request. Never expose my existence.
“Once your actions might expose my existence, the other part of the spirituality in your body will replace your self-consciousness at any time and seal it again.”
Marquis Wu’an nodded slowly. “Deal.”
With a thought from Lin Yan, the seven seventh-stage Noble Realm experts immediately bowed to Marquis Wu’an and were pulled to the side. It was unknown what he was instructing.
Prince Jing was asked to stay by Lin Yan.
He still had a lot of questions to ask. Previously, when Prince Jing didn’t answer, he wanted to turn Prince Jing into a servant.
As for Zhu Chong, he had also turned him into a servant and called him over.
As for Cao Yang, he had unfortunately died on the spot.
“Master,” Prince Jing said respectfully.
No matter how much the servant retained its original consciousness, it was still a spiritual servant. Once a person became a servant, they would lose their spirituality, not to mention that the spirituality of these Class 7 and 8 realms was not strong to begin with.
Therefore, Prince Jing’s performance was far inferior to Marquis Wu’an’s.
“Prince Jing, the question 1 asked you previously is that the Dingdeng Battle and the Dingdeng Genius Battle are held every four years, and so is the Martial Arts Tournament. Is there any connection between the three?”
Prince Jing answered matter-of-factly, “Of course. The Dingdeng Battles are held in all the prefectures in Dafeng. Their purposes are basically similar. It’s to order humans to kill each other and use the spirituality emitted when they die to catalyze the growth of Unusual Items.”
“What Unusual Item? Could it be… the Flower-Picking Orchid Jade Fruit?!”
“That’s the case for the Qianyuan Prefecture. The other prefectures have their own Unusual Items.”
Lin Yan’s pupils constricted. “So, the battlefield of the Dingdeng Battle… is here?”
Prince Jing was extremely inflexible and corrected him. “It should be said that the Dingdeng Battlefield of Qianyuan Prefecture is here. The other prefectures have their own Dingdeng Battlefields, and the appearance is the same.”
“Just to catalyze these dead things, you made countless residents of the lower city kill each other year after year and repeat the Dingdeng Battle?”
Lin Yan thought of his father and his eyes slowly darkened.
Prince Jing shook his head. “That’s not the case. Actually, this came from the will of God.”
“What is His will?”
“God requested that a specified number of human corpses be thrown into the human demon valley every four years. In order to stabilize the rule and not waste them, the various prefecture capitals formed rules similar to the Dingdeng Battle.
“Not only can it ensure the number of corpses, but it can also use human spirituality to catalyze the Unusual Items. It’s killing two birds with one stone.” “Human demon Valley… What about the other prefecture capitals?”
“It’s the same. There are a total of eight prefectures. There’s a human demon valley in the depths of the God’s Domain outside each prefecture. There’s also a similar city or fortress. There’s also a Puppet Person like me who’s in charge of guarding it.”
Lin Yan was puzzled. There was more than one human demon valley?
Why did God create so many human demons?
Lin Yan glanced at the demoness. “Is what he said true?”
“Four years, don’t know. But there were bodies, falling down, really.”
The Demoness said that she didn’t know how long four years were, but corpses did fall from time to time.

“Where did the bodies go?”
“A small number, eaten. In large quantities, to the bottom of the valley, I don’t know.”
Human demons even ate their babies, so eating humans was naturally nothing new.
Lin Yan couldn’t care less at this moment. He recalled that his father, Lin Mo, had participated in the Dingdeng Battle, but in the end, he had sent Xiaozhi and that messy letter.
He then recalled that in the heart-shaped Spirit Marrow he had obtained from Zhang Yangzhou, he had once seen a towering tree on an island that drove beautiful women to mate with mutated human demons, giving birth to babies like Xiaozhi..
