Swoosh swoosh!

The dwarf old woman flew swiftly towards Song Yan with the white-haired blood corpse, looking at him with a cackling, eerie laugh and asked, "That bracelet, old lady couldn't see clearly, could you let me take another look."

Song Yan didn't bother with her chatter and directly said, "Gu Huangzi is already dead. If I weren't afraid of you blowing your cover, I would have made you my ghost servant right now!"

With that, he slightly raised his left hand, and large clusters of multicolored tiger stripes appeared on his arm, a few strands extending toward the Cold Ice Hell Bracelet, heading straight for the old woman's divine soul.

The dwarf old woman instantly felt the danger, but she didn't move, staring directly at Song Yan's hand. Despite having gone through many things, today she was truly shocked, making her feel like a greenhorn, dumbfoundedly saying, "Gu... Gu Huangzi... is dead?"

Then she murmured, "Impossible, how could Gu Huangzi be dead? Such a terrifying person, such a powerful person, how could he die?"

Song Yan raised his head, looking proud and coldly snorted, "If he weren't dead, how could I come to power?"

With that, he looked down at the dwarf old woman and said, "Old hag. Submit or die, choose one."

These words instantly awakened the dwarf old woman's memories from a hundred years ago, recalling the scene when Gu Huangzi came to power.

She seemed like a veteran minister witnessing the sect's change of succession.

A hundred years ago, Gu Huangzi's rise already shocked her, and she had been obedient since then, not daring to act recklessly.

A hundred years later, Gu Huangzi, who she regarded as an insurmountable heart demon, had trodden the previous sect leader's path.

Gu Huangzi betrayed his master and ancestors, only to be betrayed in turn.

And there was no doubt that the one who killed Gu Huangzi had already surpassed him in both power and temperament.

The dwarf old woman began to tremble, then knelt in mid-air and submissively said, "Blood Cliff, greets... Sect Leader Song."

Song Yan was slightly stunned.

He hadn't heard the name "Blood Cliff," but he knew the Peak Master of Blood Corpse Peak had always been called "Blood Granny."

And the person in front of him was probably the Peak Master of Blood Corpse Peak.

He couldn't help but sigh inwardly: Gu Huangzi really left him a considerable inheritance.

Previously, when Gu Huangzi said he was a "qualified Puppet Sect Leader," he didn't take it seriously, only thinking of using the two people in the Cold Ice Hell Bracelet to control the Puppet Sect to some extent.

But he never expected that one of the people in the Cold Ice Hell Bracelet would be a Peak Master.

And controlling this Peak Master had taken Gu Huangzi quite some effort; at least the Yin Qi in the prison she and that Paperman Peak Senior Brother were in was significantly stronger than before.

Now, under his control, he could drive the disguised tiger stripes with just a thought to turn the two into ghost servants.

Basically, "Anyone who enters the bracelet becomes his servant."

Song Yan gestured, and the two corpses and a person landed on a sandy beach no more than several feet away; with a wave of his hand, he spread the four Array Flags of the "Traceless Array" to mask their presence, then asked, "So, what is the current situation at Puppet Sect?"

Blood Granny adjusted her mindset quickly.

First of all, the existence of Song Yan, who could replace Gu Huangzi, made her immeasurably wary; second, she was discerning, knowing the combination of the Tiger Ghost King with the Cold Ice Hell Bracelet left her no chance of rebound; third, she also had some expectations, thinking that following such a mysterious new Sect Leader might bring an unforeseen future.

Therefore, she cooperated extremely well, narrating the situation eloquently.

After a brief explanation, Song Yan roughly grasped the current situation of the Puppet Sect.

The situation was simple:

Internal affairs were autonomous but controlled by the Fox and Wolf Races.

Ghost Cultivators were the same.

A total of four came from the Fox and Wolf Races.

Blood Granny knew little about the strength of these four, but she knew Gu Huangzi once fought one of them but suffered greatly and willingly submitted afterward.

As for the process, no one saw it, because in fact, the "Nine Palace Blood of the Crimson Palace Realm" was a hidden trump card; when face down, it was terrifying, but once uncovered and exposed, it might not be so scary.

This is somewhat reminiscent of the martial arts novels Song Yan read before his transmigration, where no matter how powerful the techniques were, once exposed, others would find the flaws, then counter and eventually... the old gods fall, and a new god rises. Thus, people of the Jianghu always deeply hid their techniques, fearing others would see them.

Nine Palace Blood, nine types of blood.

Although only three types determine the Central Palace, the remaining six also produce many variations, making each existence in the Crimson Palace Realm possibly have unexpected killer moves.

Given this, who would willingly let others see their secrets?

Not to mention, if it were known that Gu Huangzi was hiding his true form as a "withered essence blood, skin and bones" concealed within a passageway paperman, his mystery would reduce by at least twenty percent.

As for this plan, it was almost as Song Yan had finally predicted.

Puppet Sect was controlled by the Fox and Wolf Races, and Gu Huangzi felt uneasy, hence setting up the "Battle of Konglan Mountain," inviting experts from Nanwu Sword Sect to stall the Fox and Wolf Races, while he feigned "attacking Nanwu Sword Sect, seeking Song Yan" to come to Nanwu Sword Sect and then take the opportunity to kidnap Yu Xuanwei and escape.

"Sect Leader, there should only be two waiting at Konglan Mountain, Gu... Gu Huangzi said there might be two Supervisors following us.

So, this escape plan, only he and I knew, and everyone else was kept in the dark."

Blood Granny explained in full detail.

Song Yan nodded, then took out his original "Cold Prison Floating Life Bracelet" from the storage space and threw it out, then said, "You should be the second most powerful under Gu Huangzi, right?"
