Chapter 1025
"Y-you can't kill me! Otherwise, my master will never forgive you!" Guo Xiuwen said shakily .
Ling Han shook his head, and said, "I thought that someone as freakish and ruthless as you would also be ruthless toward themselves . How are you so cowardly?"
Ling Han threw Luo Wu's corpse aside .
It was genuinely a corpse now as the True Origin Stones inside had already been extracted and the formations carved into it destroyed . Apart from its bones being relatively sturdy, this corpse had little difference from other ordinary corpses .
"You created this puppet, am I correct?" Ling Han pointed at the corpse, and continued, "You were ruthless enough to dig the organs out from others, yet you're afraid of suffering a similar fate?"
Guo Xiuwen shuddered in fright, and frantically explained, "I-i-i-it's different! That's only a piece of raw material, not a human!"
Ling Han was slightly astonished . Guo Xiuwen's outlook on life was already completely twisted . He was clearly a coward, yet he was somehow able to commit such disgusting atrocities . Ling Han slapped him across the face, and said, "I don't want to read your disgusting memory, so answer my questions!"
Shui Yanyu walked over and placed her sword on Guo Xiuwen's neck . "What's the point of speaking with such people? They're better off dead!"
"No! No!" Guo Xiuwen was extremely terrified . "Don't kill me, don't kill me! I'll tell you everything that you want to know! Please don't kill me!" The sound of pissing could be heard as Guo Xiuwen shrieked in terror . He had wet himself in fright .
Shui Yanyu hurriedly pinched her nose as she retreated into the distance .
Ling Han also wanted to give him a good hard kick . There truly weren't many people who were as cowardly as him . "Tell me everything you know," he said coldly .
Guo Xiuwen nodded vigorously, and said, "As you wish, as you wish . I'll speak, I'll tell you everything!"
He started to tell a story .
He had already become Pei Ji's disciple over 30,000 years ago . At that time, he was only six or seven years old . Perhaps he was two years older than that, or perhaps he was two years younger than that . It was too long ago, so his memory of that time had already become hazy .
In these 30,000 years, he had learned martial arts and puppet-making from Pei Ji . During that time, Pei Ji had also taken in four more disciples .
Guo Xiuwen had initially been unaware of how he had become Pei Ji's disciple, yet he saw a shadow of himself on his four junior brothers' bodies .
Although this island was isolated, the sea was no stranger to all kinds of unforeseen circumstances . There were tsunamis and there were pirates, and in the decades and centuries that passed, people would occasionally drift over to this island . However, none of them could escape the fate of being refined into a puppet by Pei Ji .
Sometimes, there were children among those who arrived, and Pei Ji would choose a few talented ones to become his disciples . If he later discovered that there was no value in raising them, he would kill them without mercy .
Thus, Guo Xiuwen deduced that he himself was also the descendant of someone who had drifted here . His parents had been killed by Pei Ji, yet due to his relatively good talent, he was spared by Pei Ji and even taken in as a disciple .
He had been too young at that time, so he was unable to remember any of these events . Or perhaps he had been traumatized so much that these memories were suppressed in some hidden corner of his brain .
However, even if he knew the truth, he still didn't dare develop any shred of hatred toward Pei Ji . After all, Pei Ji had two pseudo-Sun Moon Tier puppets . Even if he and the other four disciples were to team up, they would still be easily insta-killed by these two puppets .
Pei Ji was an outstanding puppeteer, yet it seemed like he had experienced some dramatic event that made him uninterested in developing his talents . Instead, he chose to become a tyrant on this island, someone who brought nightmares to those who drifted to this place .
As for Pei Ji's background and history, Guo Xiuwen knew absolutely nothing . He merely knew that the colossal pit was extremely mysterious . A peculiar mist-like matter would drift out from it every year, and if it was fused into a puppet's body, it would cause the puppet to become much stronger than before .
Moreover, creating a puppet usually took several months, yet with the help of the divine mist, this time would be compressed into a mere few days .
