C1249 Corpse Puppet

"Nice to meet you. I am the inner sect master of the Xuanjian Sect, Zheng Shaoyang. May I know which sect you are from?" Zheng Shaoyang cupped his hands toward the three of them and introduced himself as he asked the three of them.

This question made the three of them somewhat embarrassed. Although this matter was very basic, the three of them had never discussed this matter before. Thus, for a moment, they did not know how to answer his question.

Zhang Fann looked at Lu Botong and signaled him with his eyes to let Lu Botong answer. Then, he would adapt to the situation and mix this question with the question first.

Lu Botong thought for a while. Zheng Shaoyang, the headmaster of the Xuanjian Sect, said, "We are the Lu family in the Profound Star Continent. I am Lu Botong, the elder of the Lu family."

Zheng Shaoyang nodded and looked at Ling Hantian and Zhang Fann. He asked Lu Botong curiously, "And these two are?"

Lu Botong smiled and said to Zheng Shaoyang, "I forgot to introduce them to you. His name is Ling Hantian, and this is Zhang Fann."

After hearing Lu Botong's words, Zheng Shaoyang felt that something was not quite right. He frowned and asked Lu Botong, "You just said that you are both from the Lu family? But, shouldn't all the people of the Lu family be surnamed Lu? "

Lu Botong's heart skipped a beat, and he couldn't help but think to himself. It seemed like he really didn't know how to lie. How could he be seen through so quickly? What should he do?

Zhang Fann and Ling Hantian didn't explain too much about this matter. In their point of view, since Lu Botong was the one who said it, he had to find a way to rectify this lie. After all, he had to be responsible for what they said.

Lu Botong's heart moved like lightning. He hurriedly said to Zheng Shaoyang, the headmaster of the Profound Sword Sect, with a smile, "This... it's like this. Our Lu family is bigger, and we have taken in a lot of families. They are all under the management of our Lu family. This way... However, we respect these people who have integrated into our Lu family. We can still retain their surname. "

"Oh, I see." Zheng Shaoyang was skeptical. He felt that Lu Botong was not telling the truth. He also felt that Lu Botong was deliberately hiding something.

Lu Botong saw Zheng Shaoyang's expression and hurriedly said, "Oh, right. Just now, your disciples said that you want to invite us to the Xuanjian Sect as a guest? I don't know if it's true or not. "

Of course it's true. You have contributed a lot in killing the Evil Cultivator today. Therefore, I would like to invite all of you to our Xuanjian Sect for a little chat. I wonder if you have time?" Zheng Shaoyang said to Lu Botong and the others with a smile.

Lu Botong thought for a moment and looked at Qiu Ming. Then he said to Zheng Shaoyang, "I'm really sorry. We have something important to attend to. Let's talk another day."

Then he said. Lu Botong turned around and was about to leave. At that moment, Qiu Ming and his men blocked Lu Botong's way. It seemed that they had no intention of letting Lu Botong leave.

Zheng Shaoyang thought for a while and said to Lu Botong, "How about this? I don't know what kind of mission you have. I can send some of the inner sect elites of the suspenders to help you. After all, the two people around you are injured. If you run into any trouble, they will be able to protect you."

"Well, I don't think it's necessary. We can handle things in the martial arts world. You don't have to worry about it." Lu Botong politely cupped his hands to Zheng Shaoyang and said.

Zheng Shaoyang thought for a while and said to Lu Botong, "So, Lu family doesn't want to give face to the Xuanjian Sect?"

Lu Botong suddenly felt that something was wrong. It seemed that he had to go to this place today. He really couldn't hide from it.

Turning his head, Lu Botong said to Zheng Shaoyang with a face full of smiles, "Actually, our mission doesn't seem to be that urgent. How about this? We'll go to your Xuanjian Sect to take a look first. It can be considered that we're busy and idle. When we leave, I can't wait anymore."

Hearing Lu Botong's words, Zhang Fann and Ling Hantian couldn't help but feel that it was a little funny. They didn't expect Lu Botong to change his attitude so quickly. He actually figured it out so quickly.

Zheng Shaoyang nodded and instructed Qiu Ming and the others. Then, they started to walk towards the direction of the Xuanjian Sect.

When the crowd saw this scene and what had just happened... After they left with Zhang Fann and the others, It was only now that they realized what was happening, that they started walking forward. They searched the corpse of the Evil Cultivator, but found nothing. But soon, a wave of corpse stench came from the corpse, causing everyone to stay away from it. However, there was still someone who spoke with doubt.

"Something isn't right, what is going on with this corpse stench? Wasn't this Evil Cultivator made of steel not long ago? "How can there be corpse stench so quickly? "Could it be that the weather is too hot?"

"Are you stupid? No matter how hot the weather is, It's impossible for a person to give off the smell of rotting corpses when he just died. It will only happen in a day's time at the very least."

"However, I think this is because this Evil Cultivator must have cultivated some cultivation technique that it shouldn't have. That's why it's like this."

"That's not right either. No matter what cultivation technique it is, it doesn't matter. In any case, it's impossible for him to have a rotten corpse appear in such a short period of time. Unless, this Evil Cultivator has already been dead for a period of time."

"By the way, I remember that when Zheng Shaoyang came here, that young man once told him that this Evil Cultivator seemed to be a corpse puppet, and that there was another person controlling it."

"If we follow what he said, then this matter can be easily explained. After all, we can now understand that this isn't a person, but a corpse puppet that has been dead for a long time. That's why it's like this."

"That makes sense. After all, this corpse puppet could indeed emit corpse stench. " So it's normal that there's nothing on this corpse puppet. "

"I think it's better to burn it with fire. In any case, it doesn't have any other value. It's better to let this corpse puppet be destroyed and disappear from this world. Otherwise, the corpse puppet will be used by the other Evil Cultivators."2

Everyone felt that this made sense. It was better to get rid of this corpse puppet as soon as possible. Otherwise, it would be seen by the other Evil Cultivators, or perhaps the owner of this corpse puppet would know about it and come over to search for it. It would certainly bring disaster to the corpse puppet once again, so it would be better to burn it to its heart's content.

Moreover, some blood had already started to flow out of the corpse puppet at this time. It seemed like it wouldn't take long for it to melt by itself. Moreover, this black liquid seemed to have a strong corrosive property. In the blink of an eye, it had already charred the ground black.
