103: Chapter 103 Are you looking down on me, Your Majesty?

That Disciple was dumbfounded on the spot.

"This... this is impossible! Puppetry is a secret of my Tiansha Valley that is never shared with outsiders. How could you open my Battle Puppet?"

"Holy crap, are you looking down on This Great King?"

Chun Xiaobai grabbed the Disciple by the collar and yanked him straight out of the Puppet's skull like he was pulling a radish.

The Disciple struggled a few times, only to find he was as if welded to the other's hand, unable to move at all.

He immediately realized that this guy was no mere Foundation Establishment Peak Disciple.

He immediately put on a fawning smile: "No, no! Big brother, I'm just full of admiration! Yes, admiration!"

"Get lost! This Great King heard you loud and clear just now. You said to let me hit you!"

As Chun Xiaobai spoke, he raised a fist the size of a casserole and smashed it forward.

"Bang!"

With a dull thud, the Disciple was instantly given a black eye.

"Ah! I was wrong, I was wrong! Big brother, I was wrong!" The Disciple clutched his eye and begged for mercy repeatedly. "I've loved bragging since I was a kid, I've always had a big mouth!"

"Big mouth?" Chun Xiaobai glanced at his mouth again. "Damn, it really is quite annoying."

Looking at Chun Xiaobai's malicious gaze, the Disciple felt a sense of foreboding. In the eyes of these Righteous Path Disciples, he was a Demonic Cultivator.

Now that he had fallen into his hands, he might really be treated like a Demonic Cultivator and tortured to death.

His eyes darted around, and he hurriedly said, "Big brother, look at my pupp... what do you think of this Puppet? If you like it, I'll give it to you!"

"Eh?"

The fist Chun Xiaobai was about to land instantly stopped. Then, his lips curled into a grin, and he grabbed the man's hand, shaking it vigorously.

"Brother, thank you so much!"

Only then did the Disciple breathe a long sigh of relief.

Chun Xiaobai sized him up and patted his shoulder. "What is your honorable name, brother?"

"Big brother, my name is Xiao Zhang!" He then added, "We really wouldn't have met without a fight."

"Arrogant?!" Chun Xiaobai looked him up and down, then praised, "That name truly suits you perfectly."

The Disciple hurriedly bowed and scraped. "Big brother, then... then can I go?"

"Wait a minute!" Chun Xiaobai pointed at the huge Puppet beneath his feet. "First, tell me how to use this thing."

Without the slightest hesitation, the Disciple hurriedly pulled a Formation Plate from his robes and handed it over.

"Big brother, this is the Formation Plate for controlling the Battle Puppet. Just drip some blood to claim ownership, and then communicate with it using your Divine Sense."

"That simple?"

Chun Xiaobai took the Formation Plate and immediately tried to communicate with it, but found there was no reaction.

"Eh? Why isn't this working?"

Seeing his confused expression, the Disciple was momentarily stunned.

"Does this guy not know it needs to be claimed?"

A glint flashed in his eyes as if he had thought of something, and he immediately began to trick him: "Big brother, you have to go inside! You can only establish a connection with the Formation Plate once you're inside!"

Chun Xiaobai nodded half-doubtingly, glanced at the cockpit inside the Puppet's skull, and without hesitation, jumped right in.

The cockpit space was quite large, about three cubic meters, more than enough for a person to lie down in.

But just as he sat down, the lid above his head slammed shut with a "bang"!

"Damn it, the Jianghu is a treacherous place!"

Chun Xiaobai hurriedly tried to push, only to find the lid had been locked from the outside.

"You really think I have a good temper, don't you?!"

He activated the Sky-Tearing Hand again, his fingertips precisely hitting the Formation nodes inside the lid. Then, with a sudden upward thrust, he burst out along with the lid!

As soon as he came out, he saw the Disciple named Xiao Zhang running away at full tilt.

"I was originally planning to treat my prisoner well, but you're just asking for a beating, aren't you!"

Chun Xiaobai's brow furrowed, and with a single Shrinking Ground to an Inch, he instantly appeared in front of Xiao Zhang.

"Bang!"

Xiao Zhang slammed headfirst into Chun Xiaobai's chest, scared out of his wits.

"B-Big brother! I... I just wanted to play a joke on you..."

"I'm just here to grant you a wish!"

Before he could finish, Chun Xiaobai pinned him to the ground and gave him a savage beating.

In the blink of an eye, he had beaten him into a literal pig's head.

"How about it? Is this wish wonderful?"

At this moment, Xiao Zhang only saw stars, and there wasn't a single spot on his body that didn't hurt.

Just as he recovered enough to barely see, he saw Chun Xiaobai staring at him with a grin, looking as if he hadn't had enough yet.

He hurriedly nodded repeatedly. "W-Wonderful, it's too wonderful!"

"Say thank you!"

"Th-Thank you, big brother!" Xiao Zhang nodded frantically.

Then, Chun Xiaobai picked him up like a little chick and leaped back onto the top of the Battle Puppet's head.

"Confess honestly, how the hell do you use this thing?"

Xiao Zhang had no choice but to explain honestly.

He found that Chun Xiaobai was strange in every way.

Puppetry was a secret of their Tiansha Valley, yet this guy could easily open the Battle Puppet's lid without a Formation Plate, while at the same time not knowing how to use the control Formation Plate.

After explaining, seeing the golden light flashing in Chun Xiaobai's eyes, Xiao Zhang was certain that this guy really didn't know how to use the Formation Plate.

But... how did he open the Puppet's lid so easily then?

Chun Xiaobai looked down at the Formation Plate in his hand. It was palm-sized, covered in dense runes, and its construction was quite ingenious.

"I can control it just by placing a Divine Sense Imprint on it?"

Chun Xiaobai directly released his Divine Sense and indeed found an imprint at the core of the Formation Plate. The aura of that imprint was clearly Xiao Zhang's.

"Big brother, you must place your own Divine Sense Imprint on this to control it. I can do it for you..."

However, before Xiao Zhang could finish, Chun Xiaobai had already activated his Divine Sense and surged toward that imprint.

When his Divine Sense touched Xiao Zhang's Divine Sense Imprint, it was like a powerful detergent meeting a stubborn stain; there wasn't even a chance for a struggle before it was wiped clean instantly!

"Pfft—!"

Xiao Zhang, not far away, immediately suffered a backlash and spat out a mouthful of blood, standing there in a daze.

In that instant just now, he discovered he had completely lost connection with his beloved Battle Puppet.

He... he actually forcibly wiped out my Divine Sense Imprint and claimed ownership?!

How is this possible?!

One must know that to forcibly wipe out someone's Divine Sense Imprint, one's Divine Sense strength must be at least one full Major Realm higher than the other party's!

He was at the Early Foundation Establishment Stage, could it be... this guy is a Golden Core Stage old monster?

Thinking of this, his heart and soul shook. It was all over!

He had originally planned to find a chance to escape, but now he was in deep trouble. He was about to become Points in this guy's pocket!

"Eh? What's wrong with you?"

Chun Xiaobai looked at the blood on the corner of his mouth and asked curiously.

"N-Nothing!" Xiao Zhang hurriedly shook his head.

How could he dare say he had intentionally not told him that the Divine Sense Imprint could be wiped out?

If he said that, it would probably lead to another beating.
