Chapter 470: Soul Doll
The array inscription on the ring lit up with a bright golden light. Jiu Shen then felt a connection with the ten stone statues within the hall. He could sense that each of these stone statues had a soul sleeping within them, and the ring in his hand was the key to waking these things up!
Not long after, the stone statues suddenly cracked and revealed their form. They became more like human beings except for their lifeless and empty eyes. Only those who were proficient in the Formation Array and those with strong spiritual power would be able to see that these people were Soul Puppets!
The Ten Soul Puppets had souls controlling them, so Jiu Shen did not need to give them very detailed orders on what they needed to do. They're like humans! The only thing that is not human about them is their bodies because they are made of precious resources.
“Mastered!” The Ten Soul Puppets greeted Jiu Shen with a monotonous and cold voice.
Jiu Shen looked at the Soul Puppet that exuded the aura of the experts of the Supreme God Realm with a hopeful gaze. With Atlas and the Soul Puppets, he became more confident in achieving his goals.
“You and you are there. You two will guard the entrance of this building. You, the one on the far left corner, and you in the middle, you two will be guarding the store ..” Jiu Shen gave his instructions to the Soul Puppet. As long as he carried the ring, the Soul Puppet would continue to work for him endlessly! They do not need any energy or resources. This is the scariest thing about them!
There were only two Soul Puppets that did not need to do anything. Jiu Shen decided to let them guard the Heavenly Sword Tower. As for Atlas, he was Jiu Shen's trump card!
“Now that a new branch store has been created, I must return immediately and tell the others. The shop still needed some workers.” Jiu Shen returned to the temporary camp of the Heavenly Sword Tower along with the two Soul Puppets. They followed behind Jiu Shen with a cold and emotionless face.
Before he left the branch store, he asked the Soul Puppets to not allow anyone to enter inside. Soon, many experts would be interested in the spiritual plants in the garden. Even the water will attract their attention…
Jiu Shen arrived at the temporary camp in just a few minutes. His arrival shocked everyone as he returned with two strangers.
“Who are they?” Theia whispered into her ear as she curiously stared at the two Soul Puppets standing behind Jiu Shen. He could not feel the strength of the two men and there was something about them that made him feel suspicious.
“I'll explain later, but don't worry. They're on our side. Anyway, I have a land certificate for this piece of land. You can bring some Elders with you to get the building materials from Hard Rock City. .Tell them to build a new sword tower. Also, let Hestia choose twenty trustworthy female disciples. I need them for a new branch store.” Jiu Shen is in a bit of a hurry. He only had a little time before the shop caught the attention of others.
Theia nodded her head solemnly as she felt the urge in Jiu Shen's voice. He then left and quickly informed everyone of his orders.
The Elders immediately left with some disciples. They headed to Hard Rock City to buy building materials. Jiu Shen also sent the Soul Puppets to go with them to prevent any trouble from happening. After that, Hestia selected twenty female disciples to come with Jiu Shen to the new branch store.
“Theia, stay here and keep an eye on everyone. I will also leave this person here to protect you from harm. He is an expert of the Supreme God Realm, so everything will be fine.” Jiu Shen hugged Theia gently as she whispered those words.
Jiu Shen nodded as he stroked her golden hair. “I'll be waiting for you..”
After bidding farewell to Theia and the others, Jiu Shen returned to the new branch shop along with the twenty selected female disciples. The young women revealed excited and hopeful gazes as they followed behind Jiu Shen.
Meanwhile, inside the City Lord's palace.
Serek stood in front of the City Lord with a respectful look. He then bowed to the City Lord as he greeted him. “Greetings, City Lord!”
The Corpse Lord glanced at Serek expressionlessly. He then asked in a slightly impatient voice. “Why did you come here to see me? Didn't I tell you not to bother me all this time?”
The City Lord was eating the Sword Divinity Ardent Spirit he had obtained from Jiu Shen, but this fellow had suddenly come here to disturb him. If not for its value, the Corpse Lord would have beaten this person up …
“Master City, I'm back with an important piece of information. I found someone dangerous in Hard Rock City!” Serek reported in a serious tone. Jiu Shen's incredible aura was still fresh in his mind!
The Corpse Lord furrowed his brows, but his face immediately relaxed as he muttered. “Let me guess. This man had long silver hair and he was a human. She was wearing a plain white robe and had an expressionless face.”
Serek was stunned because this description perfectly matched the man he had in mind! Could it be that the City Lord knew of his identity?
“Master City, you know this guy?” Serek couldn't help but ask.
The corpse of the Lord nodded its head. “Yes. His name is Jiu Shen. He came here a while ago to buy a piece of land from me. Oh, right .. Because you're here. I'd like you to investigate the groups located in this area. Just observe them from afar and if they see your presence, leave immediately.” The City Lord handed the map to Serek and pointed to the location where the Heavenly Sword Tower temporary camp was located.
“But the man...His strength is..” Serek wants to say something, but the City Lord cut him off.
“Do not mess with Jiu Shen that ..”
The old man then left in a hurry after saying those words. Serek could only shake his head helplessly after seeing this.
