The Demonic Cultivator In Zombie World novel Chapter 350

In the southern district of Heaven-Six City, Chu Xuan arrived in front of a massive warehouse. Guarding the entrance of the warehouse were two puppet spear soldiers. Their spears crossed to block the entrance.

Chu Xuan displayed his Nascent Soul cultivator token from the Majestic Sword Sect. The puppet spear soldiers creaked as they retracted their spears, immediately allowing him to pass. Chu Xuan pushed open the large door and stepped into the warehouse.

As the lights on the four walls of the warehouse illuminated, the scene inside came into full view. The warehouse was filled with all kinds of puppets. There were human-shaped puppets, as well as puppet beasts. Some were lightly damaged, while others were severely harmed. If someone were to enter without lighting the room, the sight of these dark figures might frighten them greatly.

Chu Xuan waved his hand. The warehouse door closed again behind him. He had already noticed this task to repair puppets. However, the rewards for the task were too low, and it was quite time-consuming, so he had been too lazy to care about it. But now, in order to avoid falling into whatever trap Ximen Changqing might be setting, he could only reluctantly take on the task.

In truth, the task was simple. It involved using the divine sense jade slip issued by the Reincarnation Sect as a guide to repair the puppets with minor damage. It was essentially like following an instruction manual. As long as one followed the instructions, there was little chance of error.

However, for cultivators who had no experience with puppets, it would definitely take a lot of time. This was true regardless of cultivation level. The only advantage of high-level cultivators was that their divine sense was strong enough to maintain the repairs for a long time. Low-level cultivators, on the other hand, often run out of energy before even finishing repairing a single puppet.

Of course, for those puppets that were severely damaged, only skilled puppeteers could repair them.

Chu Xuan was quite interested in the puppet arts. He felt that there were similarities between puppets and corpse puppets. So, sitting down to repair them didn't feel tiring at all. In fact, he found it rather enjoyable.

One hour later—Clack, clack.

Footsteps sounded. The door slowly opened and closed again.

Chu Xuan looked up and saw that the person entering the warehouse was none other than Ximen Changqing. He couldn't help but be slightly surprised. Ximen Changqing was quite powerful. And given his obvious possession of several Nascent Soul-tier puppets, Chu Xuan wasn't sure of his full capabilities yet. Before understanding the man's true strength, he wouldn't act rashly.

"Senior Brother Ximen, what brings you here?" Chu Xuan asked with a smile.

Ximen Changqing gave him a scrutinizing look, then suddenly said, "Junior Brother Gao, as disciples of the Majestic Sword Sect, we are men of the righteous path in life, and we should be righteous spirits in death."

He paused, his gaze becoming more serious. "No matter what happens, we must never do anything that goes against the principles of the righteous path."

Chu Xuan nodded repeatedly, "Senior Brother is absolutely right."

Ximen Changqing continued to stare at him, his eyes filled with meaning, "Do you know, Junior Brother Gao, what is acceptable to do and what is not? Do you have your own line in your heart?"

Chu Xuan nodded solemnly, "Of course, I do!"

Ximen Changqing then moved closer to Chu Xuan. At that moment, Chu Xuan's palm subconsciously curled into a defensive position. If Ximen Changqing tried to attack, he was ready to retaliate with the full force of his 38th level body refinement. But to his surprise, Ximen Changqing stopped three zhang away, then turned his back, placing his hands behind him.

"Junior Brother Gao," Ximen Changqing began, his tone quieter, "Though there are things we must not do, there are times when, for the sake of survival, we must do them. We are born into this world, and many things are unavoidable. You, just like me, must sometimes make choices we never wish to make."

Chu Xuan's heart remained calm, but he deliberately put on an expression of fear.

"Senior Brother..." he said, his voice a little shaky. He had a hunch about what Ximen Changqing was about to say.

Suddenly, Ximen Changqing spun around sharply, his voice rising.

"Then why did you kill Feng Qian of the Crimson Flame Hall?"
