Chapter 534 - 534 Soul Taken Away
534 Soul Taken Away
Qin Xi knew this black aura the best. It was a Corpse Child.
Zhao Di held her breath. She pretended to be calm and bowed respectfully to the corpse child. She said calmly, “I have something to report to Lord Yin. Please inform him.”
The corpse child gathered from the black fog and transformed into an ugly and terrifying child. It floated in the air and stared at Zhao Di without blinking. There seemed to be suspicion and confusion on its face as it asked in a sharp voice.
“Eh? Why do I feel that something is wrong with you?”
It muttered to itself, “But I can’t tell exactly what’s wrong.”
Zhao Di’s heart skipped a beat. She tried her best to hide the fear in her heart. “This is what I want to report to Lord Yin. Please allow me to see him.”
At this moment, Yin Changming was focused on studying the Puppet Technique. He was extremely dissatisfied with the Puppet Technique that had been pa.s.sed down for generations. He also felt that there was a huge loophole in the Puppet Technique and wanted to improve it. However, the results of every experiment were negligible, so he wasted a lot of puppet corpses.
“What is it?”
At home, Yin Changming was dressed casually. He was not wearing the black robe that symbolized the Yin family. Just now, he had also heard Zhao Di and the corpse child’s conversation and was puzzled.
The moment the door was closed, Qin Xi and Han Shi quickly entered the room.
Yin Changming seemed to have sensed something and suddenly frowned. For some reason, he felt vigilant. He looked at the puppet with sharp eyes and his pupils suddenly constricted. He could immediately tell that the manipulation technique cast on Zhao Di had lost effect. His heart skipped a beat and he was about to cast the technique again.
However, his body suddenly stiffened, as if he was frozen and could not move at all. Yin Changming had a bad feeling.
Unfortunately, Qin Xi wouldn’t give the corpse child a chance. The dark chain burned with dark fire and quickly shot into the darkness. In the blink of an eye, the terrifying corpse boy turned into green smoke that floated into Qin Xi’s body and was absorbed.
Although Yin Changming could not see what was happening behind him, he could sense that the corpse child had already disappeared. That was the corpse child who had been with him for more than 30 years. It was precious to him.
He was filled with hatred, and his eyes were bloodshot. However, he couldn’t move or do anything. He could only pant heavily and glare at Zhao Di, wishing he could pull Zhao Di’s soul out and whip her ruthlessly. Even if she was reduced to ashes, it wouldn’t appease the anger in his heart.
Seeing the corpse child disappear so easily, Zhao Di was stunned. She didn’t care about Yin Changming’s reaction at all and opened her mouth in shock.
Qin Xi appeared and looked at Zhao Di. “Now, I’m going to swap your souls. Are you ready?”
Zhao Di nodded repeatedly. She was nervous and expectant. “Master, I’m ready. We can start now.”
Qin Xi wasted no time. She forcefully extracted Yin Changming’s soul bit by bit. Yin Changming grunted and blood flowed out of the corner of his mouth.
He widened his eyes in disbelief. Although he had never experienced the pain of having his soul taken away, he knew that it was a despairing pain. Generally speaking, people who could not withstand it would die on the spot, but even if they died, their souls would still suffer.
