Mortals cultivate immortality, and their IQ is playing with their heartbeats

#363 - Playing hard to get and letting the other party take the bait

Li Chengfeng's laughter echoed in the air, carrying a hint of disdain and confidence. His words were like a reassuring pill, alleviating much of the crowd's worry about the abduction of Ye Biyan and her son.

"You don't need to be too concerned. He merely wants to use bloodline secret techniques to attack our Mountain Lord. Such demonic methods are just child's play compared to the true power of curses."

Lan Qianxue clapped her hands in approval upon hearing this, as if all the gloom had been swept away. She suggested, "Since that's the case, we should seize the time to research this Substitute Death Puppet. Perhaps we can find some valuable clues from it, or even better, each of us could possess a Substitute Death Puppet. Wouldn't that be wonderful!"

As soon as these words were spoken, anticipation and excitement appeared on everyone's faces, and the previous gloom instantly vanished.

They began to busy themselves, carefully examining every corner of the cave dwelling. Unfortunately, there was nothing there except for the items they had brought, clearly indicating that it was just a temporary stronghold.

Ye Bitong also ceased speaking. Her desire for the Nameless Heavenly Book had made her eager to return, so she led the team to retreat quickly, with the Frog Saint carrying Li Chengfeng on its back.

He secretly rejoiced that he had learned his lesson this time and didn't say too much, because he knew that if he revealed even a trace of Li Chengfeng's plan, he would face ruthless punishment.

The array that Li Chengfeng had placed on the Frog Saint was like an invisible shackle. As long as there was a keyword, it would explode with thunder, forcing him to remain silent.

After returning to Little Green Mountain, everyone immediately focused their attention on Li Chengfeng's Substitute Death Puppet, with seriousness and curiosity written all over their faces.

However, this Substitute Death Puppet seemed to have truly become an inanimate object, without the slightest reaction.

Ye Bitong put forward a suggestion, that everyone should take turns studying it for a day, starting with Lan Tianxue, and so on, until everyone had a turn, and then they would work together to explore its secrets.

As for herself, she couldn't wait to try to integrate the Nameless Heavenly Book with the array formation, to see if it could produce unexpected effects.

At the thought that they could use this method to curse and kill Li Chengfeng, and immediately receive a generous reward—300,000 high-grade spirit stones—greed and desire flickered in everyone's eyes.

Although the Sect Leader of the Azure Cloud Sect and the Great Fate Master Yu Yi were secretly making arrangements in the Blackwater Swamp, they did not intend to give up this opportunity.

For that tempting reward, they were even willing to race against their own Sect Leader, vying for this honor and wealth.

Li Chengfeng's words carried a hint of cunning and anticipation. He smiled and looked at everyone, putting forward a seemingly selfless request, but in fact, it contained far-reaching considerations.

"Fellow Daoists, I have an uninvited request, and I hope that you can give me your full assistance.

After we have thoroughly researched the secrets of the Substitute Death Puppet, I promise to let you choose the benefits first, while I will take the remaining part.

I wonder what you all think of this arrangement?"

As soon as these words came out, everyone stopped and looked surprised and curious.

The potential value of the Substitute Death Puppet was self-evident, and Li Chengfeng was willing to take a step back, which naturally aroused their strong interest.

Hai Daxing urged impatiently, "Brother Li, if you have any brilliant ideas, just say it! As long as we can help, we will definitely do our best."

Seeing this, Li Chengfeng smiled even more. With a gentle wave of his hand, the Frog Saint in the spirit beast bag fell in front of everyone with a "plop", causing the Frog Saint to panic and look around, but it did not dare to make the slightest sound, for fear of offending everyone present.

Li Chengfeng continued, "I want to use everyone's strength to jointly complete an array.

My spirit beast, the Frog Saint, although its aptitude is mediocre, if we can tailor an array for it and inscribe special runes on it, it will definitely help it soar into the sky."
