Chapter 94: The Great Puppet City
After finishing his cultivation, Xiao Tian was approached by Tian Huo Zun-zhe, who couldn't help but ask, "Kid, what exactly is this world? Is it a small world belonging to your Xiao family?"
Although Tian Huo Zun-zhe asked this, he had a vague feeling that this place wasn't the Xiao Realm.
Xiao Tian calmly replied, "To be honest, this is actually another world, one that is not inferior to the Dou Qi Continent."
"What?" Despite having some suspicions, Tian Huo Zun-zhe was still quite shocked. After all, who would have thought that there could be another world like this?
Xiao Tian smiled and asked, "Elder Yao, if you choose to join my Xiao family, I will not only repair your soul but also help you resurrect and restore your cultivation. What do you think?"
"Alright, I agree," Tian Huo Zun-zhe agreed after a moment of silence. His decision was influenced by several factors.
First, Xiao Tian had amazing talent, being close to the Dou Zong level at just seventeen years old, promising an incredible future. Secondly, Xiao Tian's ability to travel between two worlds ensured great safety, as long as he didn't face a Dou Sheng head-on, he could escape. Another reason was the benefits Xiao Tian offered; as a soul entity, his greatest wish was to be resurrected. Although he had never heard of anyone coming back to life, Xiao Tian's ability to traverse worlds gave him hope. Lastly, he feared being silenced. Xiao Tian revealing such a secret to him meant that if he didn't agree, he might be eliminated. Although his soul strength was comparable to a Dou Zong, he felt that he was no match for Xiao Tian, especially considering Xiao Tian possessed the soul-restraining Fallen Heart Flame.
"Welcome to the team, Elder Yao," Xiao Tian smiled and continued, "Master, Little Marten, meet Elder Yao."
As he spoke, Yao Lao and Little Marten's figures appeared in the cave.
"Fortunate indeed," Tian Huo Zun-zhe thought, feeling lucky upon seeing Yao Lao. Yao Lao's soul strength far surpassed his own, and Little Marten was equally formidable. With such powerful allies, it would be easy for them to kill him if they wished.
Introducing himself, Tian Huo Zun-zhe said, "I am Tian Huo Zun-zhe, Yao Tian Huo."
Yao Lao nodded, "I've heard of you. You are my senior. I am Yao Zun-zhe, Yao Chen."
Tian Huo Zun-zhe asked, "Yao? Are you from the Yao clan?"
Yao Lao sighed, "Though I was born into the Yao clan, due to bloodline issues, I became an outcast. I have no fondness for the Yao clan."
Tian Huo Zun-zhe shook his head, "Indeed, the ancient clans all value the Dou Di bloodline. Those without strong bloodlines are never valued."
Xiao Tian assured, "Don't worry, Master. In the future, I will make the Yao clan apologize to you."
Yao Lao replied appreciatively, "It's good to see you have such ambition."
Little Marten added, "I'm different from you. I belong to the Heavenly Demon Marten tribe, a royal lineage of the monster race in this world."
Xiao Tian addressed everyone, "The resurrection method requires three different flames, which I already possess. As for the other materials, I will start preparing them when we return."
...
After Xiao Tian's retreat, the group left the Ancient Ravine and headed towards the Great Puppet City. This city ranked among the top five in the Great Desolate Province. Xiao Tian aimed to attend an auction being held there.
"Wow, what a huge city!" Lin Dong exclaimed in amazement upon seeing the Great Puppet City.
No wonder he was amazed; the Great Puppet City was several times the size of Yan City, resembling a massive beast sprawled on the plains. Its immense scale justified its top-five ranking in the Great Desolate Province, an area significantly larger than the Heavenly Capital Province.
The Great Puppet City housed three main forces: the Yin Puppet Sect, the Great Demon Gate, and the Martial Alliance. Each had practitioners at the Creation level.
After finding a place to stay, Xiao Tian and his companions waited for the auction organized by the Martial Alliance to begin. When the day arrived, the auction house was packed. Despite its vast size, capable of holding thousands of people, it was crowded.
Fortunately, the Martial Alliance had many disciples maintaining order, preventing any chaos. Xiao Tian and his companions opted for the VIP entrance, which required a fee of 1,000 Pure Yuan Pills per person.
"Damn, that's expensive!" Qing Tan and Lin Dong muttered, feeling the pinch.
"Look, that's the talented young witch of the Great Demon Gate!" someone exclaimed.
"Isn't that Mu Qianqian? She's not only talented but also incredibly beautiful!"
"Such a beauty! If I could hold her, I'd be willing to live ten years less..."
Hearing the surrounding chatter, Xiao Tian glanced ahead, seeing a graceful young woman in a black dress walking elegantly. Her skin was fair as snow, and her long black hair was tied with a simple jade hairpin, exuding a subtle charm. Even with just a side view, Xiao Tian could see her exquisite beauty.
"Hmph!" The women around Xiao Tian snorted in displeasure. Someone even pinched the soft flesh on his waist, though Xiao Tian's strong body felt no pain.
"Ahem!" Xiao Tian cleared his throat and redirected his gaze. "She's not as beautiful as you all."
"That's more like it!" "You know your place!" The women were finally satisfied.
As Xiao Tian and his group walked by, the crowd was even more astonished.
"Look at those four girls! Each one is as beautiful as Mu Qianqian!"
"That purple-haired girl is so cute, like a doll!"
"I prefer the one in white. Look at that slender waist!"
"I like the one in blue, she feels like the girl next door."
"The one in green is the best, pure looks but with a hot figure..."
"So what? Look at that young man in white. He's even more beautiful than the girls. I think I'm in love!"
"Though I'm not into guys, I can't help but agree with him."
Listening to the crowd, Xiao Tian felt a chill. He never expected there to be so many admirers of his looks.
