Chapter 944: 9-Flame Puppet Ball
"So that's how it is." Xiao Yi wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth and glanced at Wang Xinghe.
The Wang Family, or perhaps the earliest ancestors of the Wang Family, came in pursuit of the Star Illusion Saint's inheritance.
Countless years passed, leading to the Wang Family becoming the head of the Three Great Families in Star Swapping City.
The young master of this generation's Wang Family, Wang Xinghe, was born with the awakening of the Star Illusion Space Martial Soul.
From a young age, he cultivated the Star Illusion Martial Way and also wore the treasure known as the Star Illusion Bracelet.
It could be said that all of the Wang Family's hopes were placed on Wang Xinghe.
And Wang Xinghe's obsession was also for the inheritance of the Star Illusion Saint.
No wonder he went mad when he learned that the Star Illusion Saint's inheritance was obtained by someone else, even resulting in a Heart Demon.
"Star Illusion Space, suppress him," Wang Xinghe shouted fiercely.
Within the Star Illusion Space, the countless starlight powers once again transformed into a surging Starlight River, pressing towards Xiao Yi.
Xiao Yi shook his head, his fingers lightly moving, "Disperse."
In an instant, the Starlight River dispersed, turning into specks of Starlight, floating in the space.
"How is this possible," Wang Xinghe's eyes widened, full of incredulity.
The starlight power he had gathered also dispersed at the same time.
No matter how skilled he was or how well he resonated with the Star Illusion Space, ultimately he was not the master of this space.
But Xiao Yi was the only person to have inherited the Star Illusion Saint.
Simply put, besides the Star Illusion Saint himself, no one could have greater control over this space than he.
The Star Illusion Saint had long since perished countless years ago.
The Star Illusion Space he left behind, Xiao Yi was the absolute controller, not any other person.
"Die," Wang Xinghe was still unyielding.
Once again, starlight gathered in his hands.
The starlight transformed into an Starlight Sword.
With the amplification of the Star Illusion Bracelet, the Starlight Sword's power was formidable.
Wang Xinghe charged holding the sword, attacking Xiao Yi directly.
Xiao Yi did not draw his sword, he merely released a Sword Qi from his fingertip.
Wang Xinghe was immediately defeated under this Sword Qi, forced back over ten steps.
As his figure just stabilized, he attacked again frantically.
In his hands, the sword shadows danced, extremely exquisite.
The Star Illusion Saint cultivated the Star Illusion Swordsmanship.
Naturally, although Wang Xinghe had comprehended a bit of the inheritance's surface, he also mastered swordsmanship.
In other words, Wang Xinghe was not only proficient in hand techniques but also in swordsmanship.
It's even likely that under his swordsmanship was his strongest combat power.
However, in previous contests, fearing to reveal the secret of the Star Illusion Saint's inheritance, he never dared to use this swordsmanship.
Of course, it no longer mattered.
In front of Xiao Yi, a Sword Dao Expert, his sword arts were insignificant.
Still, just a strike of Sword Qi, Wang Xinghe was already defeated.
"Enough, I'm not interested in fighting you," Xiao Yi said indifferently.
Sword Dao Practitioners are most arrogant.
Wang Xinghe was already plagued by a Heart Demon, and his strength was far inferior.
Such an enemy, Xiao Yi deemed not worth killing.
Moreover, in Wang Xinghe's state, unless he could suddenly have an epiphany, even if Xiao Yi did not kill him, he would collapse under the consumption by his Heart Demon.
"Enough? If you don't die, how can I stop?" Wang Xinghe laughed maniacally.
His obsession had evidently reached a frenzied level.
He once more charged holding the Starlight Sword, attacking Xiao Yi directly.
Xiao Yi furrowed his brows, "Don't push me, killing you is a trivial matter for me."
"Kill me? Hahaha," Wang Xinghe laughed wildly.
"The fact that you can disperse the power in Star Illusion Space does not mean you can kill me."
"This is within the core of the Star Illusion Space, my Martial Soul is the Star Illusion Space."
"I can wholly merge my mind with it."
"If you wish to kill me, you'd have to destroy the entire Star Illusion Space."
"Can a bug like you destroy the space left by the Senior Xinghuan?"
"While I'm here, as long as I don't die, eventually, until your Primordial Power is exhausted, I will make you bleed out here."
"Wait for my Primordial Power to be exhausted?" Xiao Yi sneered coldly.
Turns out this is Wang Xinghe's confidence.
Yet this confidence, in Xiao Yi's eyes, is even more insignificant.
Whoosh...
Wang Xinghe attacked again frantically.
Xiao Yi released another Sword Qi in response, but this time accompanied by starlight, it was a daunting force.
The Starlight Sword Qi instantly pierced through Wang Xinghe's mind.
Wang Xinghe was blasted back dozens of steps, his mind thinned considerably.
"You can destroy my mind?" Wang Xinghe was stunned in place.
A moment later, he reacted.
As the foremost Heavenly Talent of Star Swapping City, his intelligence was exceptional; once he realized, he understood.
"Your control over the Star Illusion Space surpasses mine, huh, hehe."
"I've waited for this, prepared for 15 years, no, it should be 31 years, from birth I have been preparing."
"This is exactly the sixth Star Swapping Day, my opportunity to enter the Star Illusion Space and receive the inheritance."
"Do you know how long I've dreamed of today, how many times I've envisioned it?"
Wang Xinghe's expression was both smiling and crying.
"Damn it, truly damn it, all because of you."
"All of this was supposed to be mine."
"It would be me who controlled the Star Illusion Space and received the inheritance of Senior Xinghuan."
"After this Star Swapping Day, I was meant to be the renowned Heavenly Talent of the Central Region."
"All because of you."
"No one can obstruct my path, those who block me, die."
Wang Xinghe's tone was as dark as could be.
The killing intent on his face was as dense as ever.
The madness had never faded from his face by an inch.
Xiao Yi squinted his eyes, "Stubborn fool, then don't blame me."
As he said, killing Wang Xinghe was a trivial task, but he was not interested in killing.
Yet he was even less interested in playing mad with Wang Xinghe here.
In his hand, a few Star Light Sword Qi gathered.
This strike of Sword Qi would be enough to scatter Wang Xinghe's mind instantly.
"Heh, Xiao Yi trash, don't get too pleased," Wang Xinghe laughed malevolently.
A sudden flash of light from the Universe Ring he wore.
Though he was in a mental state, he wore the Universe Ring all along.
As the light fell, nine formidable presences appeared out of nowhere, engulfed entirely by flames.
"Hmm?" Xiao Yi's expression shifted slightly, "Nine Fire Puppet Ball?"
He remembered, at the Ten Thousand Gold Mansion auction earlier, this was the final piece due to Wang Xinghe's appearance, causing it to be directly purchased by him.
The auctioneer did not announce the name of the auction piece at that time.
But now, on the arms of these nine Flame Puppets, there was a 'Gold' character.
This was the symbol of the Ten Thousand Gold Mansion, proving this was their merchandise.
So it was evident that the last auction item was this Nine Fire Puppet Ball.
The Nine Fire Puppet Ball contained nine puppets with Heavenly Extreme Peak strength.
Moreover, the nine puppets, forming a whole, cooperating together, each puppet's strength surpassed the Heavenly Extreme Peak, reaching Half-step Unlimited.
"Xiao Yi, die," Wang Xinghe roared angrily.
"The Nine Fire Puppet Ball will burn you to ashes."

The second update.
