Miaoyin Zhenren was utterly shocked.

Even a tiger would not eat its cubs!

She had seen people refined through secret techniques before.

In fact, many cultivators in the cultivation realm practiced these unorthodox methods.

Most of them used enemies or unrelated people to refine their puppets, the harshest only extending to their disciples.

But like the Kong Family, using their direct descendants to refine puppets, Miaoyin Zhenren truly saw for the first time!

"What do you know!"

The Kong Family member, watching Miaoyin Zhenren being relentlessly pursued by a Tier Nine Saint King Realm puppet, wore a face full of madness and pride.

"Only combat puppets refined from direct bloodlines are the most perfect!"

Looking at the two combat puppets refined from her own grandson and granddaughter, her eyes were filled with obsession.

"They are so young, they have infinite potential, they can at least protect me for a hundred years!"

Though the combat puppets were powerful, they lacked combat experience, and their movements were mechanical and stiff. Despite repeatedly putting Miaoyin Zhenren in dangerous situations, they never managed to capture her.

Miaoyin Zhenren still had the strength to condemn Kong with her words: "Even a tiger wouldn't eat its cubs! They are your own grandchildren. Aren't you afraid of the wrath of heaven?"

"Heaven's wrath?"

The Kong Family member laughed arrogantly as if hearing a joke: "Heaven is behind me, what wrath should I fear? As for them..."

She looked at her grandson and granddaughter, her gaze fanatical, not as if she was looking at family but rather a perfect work of art.

She said complacently: "I raised them from young, they owe me, they should repay me! Moreover, they should thank me. If not for me, how could they have reached the Tier Nine Saint King Realm at such a young age?"

"You are insane!" Miaoyin Zhenren found it unbelievable, "What about these children's parents? Aren't you afraid they'll come to settle the score? And the ancestors of the Kong Family, aren't you afraid they'll make your divine soul scatter beneath the nine springs?"

The Kong Family member snorted at these words, not replying.

Seeing the combat puppets failing to capture Miaoyin Zhenren, she became furious: "You two idiots, hurry up and kill her for me! If you dawdle any longer, I'll make your souls scatter first!"

Hmm?

Upon hearing this, Miaoyin Zhenren was taken aback.

She carefully observed the two combat puppets and indeed found something unusual.

Their expressions were dull, and their movements stiff, but their eyes were clear, unlike the usual hollow eyes of puppets.

"They actually have intelligence?" Miaoyin Zhenren was shocked.

She whipped her head to look at the Kong Family member, her shock indescribable: "You madwoman, you actually refined your grandchildren into living puppets? Are you even human? You're more brutal and cold-blooded than a beast!"

The Kong Family member snorted indifferently: "Women's compassion! They are noble combat puppets, not those dumb puppets! Without a divine soul, how could they grow and how could they display their top-tier cultivation?"

"Crazy! You are truly insane!"

Miaoyin Zhenren had never been as shocked in her entire life as she was today.

Looking at the Kong Family member, she said incredulously: "Where is the Patriarch of the Kong Family? Does he allow you to act so recklessly?"

The Kong Family member burst into laughter upon hearing this. It seemed the funniest joke in the world, and she laughed so hard tears came out.

She couldn't straighten her waist with laughter and pointed at Miaoyin Zhenren: "Where do you think I got the secret technique to refine combat puppets? You wonder where the parents of these two puppets went, don't you? Why don't you guess?"

Miaoyin Zhenren was immediately horrified: "You mean..."

The Kong Family member said nothing, only revealing a hint of envy on her face: "They were the best combat puppet materials, much stronger than these two wastes!"

Miaoyin Zhenren's face changed dramatically.

She wanted to speak, but the two combat puppets, under the Kong Family's coercion, suddenly increased their attack, leaving her barely able to breathe.

Seeing Zhao Yi behind her not making a move, Miaoyin Zhenren angrily shouted: "Bastard, if you don't help now, I'll be left here!"

Meanwhile.

Zhao Yi had just finished asking the Thousand Hands and Thousand Eyes Spirit in the Divine Sense World about information related to the combat puppets.

Ever since Taotie devoured the altar's Spirit, the Thousand Hands and Thousand Eyes Spirit had become timid, fully cooperating with Zhao Yi's demands.

Zhao Yi's face was grim: "I originally thought you were already evil enough, but I didn't expect that puppet to be even more so! It taught people to refine puppets with the bloodlines of their closest kin, utterly inhumane and deserving of death!"

The Thousand Hands and Thousand Eyes Spirit was dismissive: "I've told you before, Spirits are manifestations of the heavenly rules. Most Spirits only act according to their inherent rules and have no concept of morality or ethics. You cannot impose human thinking on a Spirit!"

"Most?" Zhao Yi, sharp as ever, caught the key in the Thousand Hands and Thousand Eyes Spirit's words, "What about the few remaining Spirits?"

The Thousand Hands and Thousand Eyes Spirit proudly said: "A few remaining Spirits are like me, possessing transcendent wisdom. Though they act according to the rules, they are not governed by them."

Zhao Yi nodded slightly and asked, "What about that puppet? Which category does it belong to?"

The Thousand Hands and Thousand Eyes Spirit said: "It is like me, possessing extraordinary wisdom. And due to the special nature of combat puppets, it is extremely skilled at hiding. When you've discovered one puppet, it may already have refined thousands more in secret!"
