Apply in the afternoon.
Everyone in the Zhong Mansion made detailed inquiries and checks.
No one is missing, and no one shows signs of being soul-searched.
The Thirty Chongyuan was uninhabited, and apart from the destruction of some buildings, there was no other damage.
Zhong Yan muttered: "I should have just sneaked into the house and happened to be caught by me."
Yuan Ziyi: "On the ninth floor of the foundation, if he is from a family around Qingyang, it should not be difficult to find out."
Yu Qingyao: "The Ding family and the Peng family know your details and are testing you? Or do they just want to assassinate you?"
Zhong Yan shook his head: "It's not like that. The escape technique she performed is quite strange, and her combat power is not comparable to that of ordinary people."
He gained a lot from killing Ge Liqun. Not only did he have a clear understanding of his own combat power, he also gained a better understanding of the later monks.
Among the people he came into contact with, the beastmaster Ding Zhi was the strongest, followed by Ge Liqun, and the seventh-level Peng Jinghuan was slightly stronger than the eighth-level Xia Hongdeng.
In comparison, Zhong Yan is sure to defeat any of them.
But the woman in black last night was only one level higher than a few others. She used all kinds of methods such as the big tablet bearer and ancient calligraphy secrets, but it was quite difficult. As time went by, it was bound to be more bad than good.
After some thinking, Zhong Yan had no clue. The only possibility that came to mind was that the Ding family or the Peng family revealed their actual combat power to the outside world, and out of fear, they attracted a killer, most likely the Five Elements Sect.
However, Zhong Yan feels that this possibility is very small.
The Ding family and the Peng family are strong in the northwest, but when looking at the entire Yan Kingdom, they are not ranked high.
The three corners of the city, united together, are the best way to deal with the national war.
"The assassination failed. If there is another purpose, we should find out soon. Just wait."
Zhong Yan said: "Qing Yao ordered everyone to be more cautious recently. Zi Yi, please keep an eye on the children in the house."
The two responded.
Gu Baiyu said: "Husband, City Lord Xia, Fellow Daoist Bai, and Fellow Daoist Ding have all come to inquire about the situation. Do you want to see them?"
"Um."
Meet the guests.
Zhong Yan returned to the deep courtyard to find Yuan Ziyi, and was quite curious about the 'woman in green skirt' she had recruited.
I had always known that the other party had a spiritual puppet, but this was the first time I saw it. I never thought that it was actually Si Ying, the fourth disciple of the Seven Peaks whom I had met beside Li Lin.
It is revealed that the aura intensity of the seventh level of foundation building is close to the eighth level, but the combat power is extraordinary.
Moreover, he is full of spirituality. At first glance, he is no different from ordinary people. Even his eyes have sparkle.
In addition, during last night's battle, he only saw Yuan Ziyi making some handprints at the beginning, and then 'Puppet Siying' fought on her own, moving smoothly and naturally.
Thirty-sixth courtyard, next to the medicine garden.
Yuan Ziyi turned around and saw her husband flying towards him. He knew the purpose of his visit and waved to call out the 'woman in green skirt'.
"This is the fourth sister."
Yuan Ziyi smoothed the hair of the 'woman in green skirt', with a soft look in her eyes, and said: "Husband, I didn't hide it intentionally. In my heart, the fourth sister has never died, and I don't want to use her as a tool."
Zhong Yan nodded, surprised in his heart, and looked at 'Puppet Siying', who also looked at him and moved his eyes vividly.
She opened her red lips and said softly: "Hello."
Zhong Yan's eyes widened and he was shocked.
Yuan Ziyi took the fourth sister's hand and said: "I control it, and it is limited by my puppet skills. Although the fourth sister is a spiritual puppet, she is not that spiritual. However, the fourth sister's soul is still there, as long as the fourth sister's soul is still there, If you continue to practice and nourish yourself, your spirituality will become higher and higher in the future."
Zhong Yan was startled: "Is the spirit still there?"
Yuan Ziyi nodded slightly, with a complicated look on his face, sadness in his eyes, and a hint of regret.
Zhong Yan understood clearly in his heart and asked no more questions.
He is also a puppet master, so he naturally understands what it means that the soul is still alive - someone made a puppet while he was still alive!
No wonder spirituality is so high.
Among the many types of puppets, the puppets made from living 'monks' or 'monsters' are the highest level, and some have the ability to grow.
However, this method is too vicious, and the recipients have to endure unimaginable pain and torture. It is extremely difficult to achieve peace, and it is rare to refine it, unless the recipient is willing.
Although Yuan Ziyi's puppetry technique has achieved some achievements, it is obviously still far from reaching that level. Only the 'Fourth Sister' herself agreed.
Zhong Yan left behind 'Lu Ge' and 'Lu Ruiqi' just because he wanted to refine the 'Corpse Puppet' in the future.
At the moment of the monk's death, he immediately casts a spell, supplemented by high-grade materials, which can retain part of the combat power of the 'materials' during his lifetime, including supernatural powers and spells.
And the 'Siying' in front of me may have left behind most of her combat power.
Yuan Ziyi was silent for a moment, and then took the initiative to speak: "That time, the fourth sister went to Yunmeng Swamp to look for a magical elixir. The master felt something in his heart, used forbidden techniques to deduce, and learned that there was a life and death crisis, so he went to find it personally... When he came back, the four My sister's life was hanging by a thread, and there was no cure, so Master asked me..."
Yuan Ziyi's eyes sparkled at the thought of the fourth sister having to endure such pain before she died.
Zhong Yan took her hand, shook it, and comforted her: "As you said, the fourth sister has never died, she is just alive in another form different from us, and we can still see her every day."
Pei Nanjin and other Qifeng disciples did not know the identity of Yuan Ziyi's puppet master, so they obviously did not know that Siying had become a puppet and did not see the last body.
After Yuan Ziyi calmed down a little, Zhong Yan asked: "Nan Jin and the others didn't ask?"
Yuan Ziyi: "Asked, we only met once when Master brought Fourth Sister back. After that, Master took Fourth Sister into retreat to heal her wounds, and then invited me to go alone... In the end, Master pretended to bury Fourth Sister in the coffin. Tell him to leave quietly, and the sisters will have no doubt that he is there."
Zhong Yan nodded: "Then let the Fourth Sister come out as little as possible from now on."
Li Lin's absence is difficult to explain. If Pei Nanjin and others see the 'Fourth Puppet Sister', they will inevitably think too much and find it difficult to accept it.
It is said that it is a spiritual puppet, but its soul is still there, but in fact it is a walking corpse. All behaviors, emotions and thoughts are all in Yuan Ziyi's thoughts, and it is no longer the original 'Siying'.
The premise is that Siying has her soul refined while she is alive and will not enter reincarnation!
To be honest, if Yuan Ziyi, Yu Qingyao and others were on the line between life and death in the future and could make puppets if they met the conditions, he would not be willing to do so.
Zhong Yan sighed in his heart. With Yuan Ziyi's character, he would never do this. It could only be Li Lin's instruction.

…
Eastern Region.
Southwest of Yanzhou, Xingyue Sect.
In the magnificent Jade Square, there were tens of thousands of disciples wearing various sect costumes.
Today is the opening ceremony of the sect competition held every three years. After all the disciples drew lots, their discussions faded away like the tide.
"Junior Sister Ye!"
With a shout, four male disciples came after him.
Ye Xu and her senior sister stopped and turned around to greet them.
At this moment, Ye Xu was wearing a purple sect uniform with a waistband. Although he was not tall, he had a light and graceful figure and looked heroic.
Looking at the face again, the youthfulness has faded away, and there is no peerless beauty, but the eyebrows are picturesque, innocent and bright, and the smile reveals two delicate dimples. When people see her, they uncontrollably feel pity and want to protect her.
Since her introduction, she has been welcomed by many male disciples.
"What kind of lot did Junior Sister draw?"
Ye Xu is shy, pure and pleasant. She gestured with the sign and said with a smile: "The first show will be tomorrow morning at the No. 9 Law Platform."
"Junior sister has a solid foundation and superb Taoist skills. She will definitely shine in this competition!"
"..."
A group of men and women walked away laughing.
Arrive in front of a beautiful building.
Senior sister pretended to be dissatisfied and scolded: "What are you doing, are you going to follow us into the female disciples' dormitory? Junior sister Xu has to go back and prepare!"
At this time, a rainbow flew over.
The deacon disciple landed and raised his hands: "Brothers and sisters, do you know Senior Sister Ye Xu?"
Ye Xu was stunned, then stepped forward and said, "Senior brother, I am Ye Xu, why are you looking for me?"
The deacon disciple turned over his hands and took out a letter and handed it over: "Senior Sister, you have a letter, please check it."
Ye Xu blinked and hurriedly reached out to take it. When she saw the seal and signature on the envelope, her face showed surprise: "Thank you, senior brother!"
Then he said goodbye to the four curious male disciples, said, "Sister, I'm going back first," and ran away briskly.
Rush all the way back to the cave.
Ye Xu took the letter and turned it over and over, looking at it like a treasure. After a long time, he carefully erased the mark and opened it.
Thin clouds make tricks, flying stars spread hatred, and silver men are far away in darkness.
Once the golden wind and jade dew meet, they will win over countless others in the world.
Tenderness is like water, good times are like dreams, and I can't help but look at the Magpie Bridge on the way home.
If the love lasts for a long time, how can it last day and night?
"If love lasts for a long time, how can we stay together day and night..."
Ye Xu whispered and recited it repeatedly, lying on her side on the couch, holding the letter tightly to her arms.
I tossed and turned all night, unable to sleep, thinking about you like a flood.
