Chapter 290: Remember Not to Be Complacent (Seeking Monthly Pass)
On the Grand Hall Square.
Su Qianyuan and Su Xi stood there.
Neither of them showed signs of having made a move.
But the invisible battle had already begun.
Invisible strings spread out between Su Xi's ten fingers that the naked eye couldn't see.
These strings flexibly wound around Su Qianyuan's right hand.
Yet, Su Qianyuan seemed to notice nothing, staring blankly at his own right hand, completely oblivious to the strings.
The strings from Su Xi were wound around Su Qianyuan's right hand.
But contrary to Su Xi's expectations, she hadn't gained total control over him like she had with Starfish.
Her strings couldn't control her third elder disciple brother at all.
When it came to her own third brother, it was like dealing with a puppet with a body as stiff as ironstone, very difficult to manipulate.
She exerted all her strength but still couldn't control the puppet's entire body, at most, she could only barely control an arm.
Yet even if she only controlled an arm, Su Xi didn't give up but chose to use that arm to attack Su Qianyuan.
She wanted to win!
She wanted her third elder disciple brother to see clearly that she really had made some achievements in her cultivation.
Su Xi's decision.
Resulted in the scene of Su Qianyuan punching himself.
Elsewhere,
Su Qianyuan turned his head with great effort, dodging the punch coming from his own right hand.
Feeling the terrifying breeze of the punch by his cheek, he wanted to cry.
What was all this about?
His right hand suddenly was out of his control.
Not only that, but it kept trying to hammer his head.
At that moment, Su Qianyuan realized just how terrifying his own fist was.
One punch, and he feared he would have no face left.
To avoid having his face smashed by a punch,
Su Qianyuan tried hard to regain control of his right hand.
But no matter what he tried, he couldn't control his right hand; his entire arm was numb and didn't respond to his commands.
Could this be his little sister disciple's doing?
Just as Su Qianyuan was about to ask his little sister disciple to stop,
a voice echoed from the bottom of his heart.
"Oh boy! Is your arm out of control? Come on, let me chop it off for you. Don't move; it'll be over in a second!!"
Hearing this,
Su Qianyuan's expression changed drastically.
That damn voice belonged to the Pankong Axe.
This thing was getting out of hand, even wanting to chop off his arm.
Su Qianyuan immediately ran to the side.
"Little sister apprentice, stop fighting! Withdraw your technique!" Discover hidden content at My Virtual Library Empire
Su Qianyuan was genuinely afraid that this melon he had forcefully twisted would backstab him.
He also didn't dare to wrestle with his little sister disciple over control of his arm anymore.
As he said those words,
his right hand instantly regained sensation and was once again under his control.
Su Qianyuan hastily stopped in his tracks, looked towards the Pankong Axe, with Evil Earth Qi and Blood Evil Qi ready to burst out, prepared to strike with all his might.
But what met his eyes,
was the Pankong Axe still lying quietly in its place, motionless.
It had no intention of chopping him at all.
This thing...
Was bluffing him??
"Look how scared you got, it was just a joke."
The voice of the Pankong Axe sounded again in Su Qianyuan's heart.
Hearing this,
Su Qianyuan's face turned dark.
A joke??
To make a joke at that critical moment?
That joke made him lose face big time, okay?
He considered himself defeated by this little sister disciple...
This was his little sister disciple,
who had just started not long ago.
Even though he hadn't used even a tenth of his power, still, it was embarrassing...
Su Qianyuan didn't even want to look at the Pankong Axe anymore, fearing that in his rage, he would smash it into scrap metal.
"Little sister apprentice, your technique is very... quite impressive, is it about controlling other people's body parts?"
Su Qianyuan turned his head with difficulty, looking at Su Xi, and slowly spoke.
"Phew, no, third elder brother, what I used was the Puppet Control Technique. If it's about controlling people, it would turn them directly into puppets. It's only because my cultivation levels are shallow, and elder brother is too strong, that I could only barely control one of elder brother's arms," Su Xi explained with a sigh of relief, her small face a bit pale.
It's clear that controlling Su Qianyuan's arm had taken a lot out of her.
"Direct control of people?"
Su Qianyuan exclaimed in astonishment.
"Ah? Yes, third elder brother, when controlled, the person would become like a puppet, losing consciousness, and be at my mercy," Su Xi explained in detail.
"That powerful???"
Su Qianyuan's eyes nearly popped out.
The person being controlled would turn straight into a puppet, completely manipulated by this little sister? Does that mean, during their fight just now, if he hadn't been so much more powerful than his little sister disciple, he might have been directly controlled??
If she grew in power later...
Hisss!!
Su Qianyuan took in a sharp breath, he couldn't believe it.
Was this still the darling little sister disciple?
This clearly was a future Great Demon in the making...
Turning people into puppets left and right.
This little sister disciple, he couldn't afford to provoke her!!!
In his heart, Su Qianyuan silently tagged Su Xi as such.
"Sister apprentice, your cultivation... indeed shows some modest achievements. But you must apply yourself more and remember not to become prideful. Our Respected Master detests disciples who are prideful and complacent," said Su Qianyuan, after having this thought.
"Prideful and complacent? Third elder brother, what do you mean by that?" Su Xi asked, somewhat puzzled.
"It means, don't go around showing off about what you've cultivated, and don't let pride take hold, affecting your cultivation. That is what our Respected Master dislikes the most!" Su Qianyuan explained.
"But, third elder brother, you were just happily running around with the axe, doesn't that count as being prideful and complacent?" Su Xi tilted her head and said.
Su Qianyuan: "..."
Danger!!!
