Chapter 370: The Mysterious Man
"Senior brother, have you found anything?" Mu Yuqing was very concerned.
"You see, according to the reports of my subordinates, there have been incidents of soul bodies going out during this time, and every once in a while, one or even several soul bodies will go missing, and during the time I was not in the Soul Eater Pavilion, hundreds of soul bodies were missing, which is simply incredible. Lin Xingchen frowned.
Mu Yuqing's expression was equally solemn, she knew that Shenluo seemed to have mastered a certain method to attach soul bodies to people's bodies, thus making them puppets, but she didn't know where these soul bodies came from.
At first, she and Long Yi suspected that these soul bodies were very likely to be selected by Shenluo from the Xuxian Pavilion, but according to the clues provided by Lin Xingchen, she suddenly suspected that these soul bodies were very likely to come from the Soul Devouring Pavilion.
It's just that she is curious, even if these soul bodies are kidnapped by Shenluo, how can they obey Shenluo's order to go to the Liaowang Grassland and be willing to be puppets? Don't they know that the lifespan of puppets is not infinite? Although they seem to be reborn temporarily, they are not the same as real rebirths, and they can't survive like ordinary people at all.
Mu Yuqing told Lin Xingchen in detail what happened in the Liaowang Grassland, and when she talked about the puppet, Lin Xingchen was not calm.
He also suspected that these soul bodies that disappeared from the Soul Eater Pavilion were likely to be controlled by Shenluo, and it could be seen from the letter passed by Shenluo and Ritsu Xingfeng that Shenluo was still continuing his behavior, and he wanted to use the soul body to create more puppets in order to control the five kingdoms on the entire continent in the future.
"This damn Shenluo, I won't let him go!" Lin Xingchen said hatefully.
To be honest, Lin Xingchen's understanding of Shenluo was not even as good as Mu Yuqing's understanding of him, when he had seen Shenluo in his impression, it was probably the moment when Xuxian Pavilion attacked the Soul Devouring Pavilion, he had always regarded Shenluo as a small person, and when he stood with several elders of Zhuxian Pavilion, he didn't have any sense of existence at all.
Unexpectedly, a person he didn't pay attention to slowly became a hidden danger.
"The only way now is to find those missing soul bodies and rescue them, and to ensure that the soul bodies of the Soul Devouring Pavilion are no longer controlled by them!" Mu Yuqing proposed.
In the Dark Land, the Soul Eater Pavilion is one of the several major forces with a large number of people, and the reason why there are many people is also because all souls who die in the Dark Land will eventually be attracted by soul power and come to the Soul Eater Pavilion.
Originally, the disappearance of hundreds of soul bodies would not be so important, but when it came to Mu Yuqing's previous suspicions, Lin Xingchen couldn't help but take it to heart, if there was no suspicion from Mu Yuqing, he was afraid that if he continued to disappear hundreds of soul bodies in the Soul Devouring Pavilion, it would not necessarily attract Lin Xingchen's attention.
"Every day, some of the soul bodies of the Soul Eater Pavilion need to leave the Soul Eater Pavilion, not only to collect ingredients, but also to probe the movements of other forces, and to find out what is happening in the dark place, these soul bodies must go out every day, if someone is missing, there will be new soul bodies to take their place, so we can't prevent it at all, how can we know where the soul body is caught, and which soul body should we track?" Lin Xingchen was at a loss.
Mu Yuqing just smiled, and then took out the soul summoning mirror in his arms.
There are two soul records on the soul summoning mirror that are particularly eye-catching, they are Lin Xingchen and Su Ziyuan's, seeing this stable soul record, you can also know that Su Ziyuan's life is not in danger now.
Lin Xingchen looked at Mu Yuqing with some puzzlement.
Looking at Lin Xingchen, who was just not enlightened, Mu Yuqing couldn't wait to go up and pat his head.
The Soul Summoning Mirror is not only for him to brand his soul with his master, thousands of soul bodies can imprint soul marks at the same time, Mu Yuqing only needs to let the soul body brand his own soul mark, so he is not afraid of being in danger when they go out.
If she is really in danger, as long as she urges the Soul Summoning Mirror, she can immediately summon everyone's soul body back.
Mu Yuqing discussed it with Lin Xingchen and finally came up with a solution.
They hand-picked some clever soul bodies, then asked them to imprint soul marks on the soul summoning mirror one by one, and finally, they went out to do things as usual.
Mu Yuqing didn't dare to relax for a moment, and observed the changes in the soul summoning mirror with Lin Xingchen in the council hall.
At first, the Soul Summoning Mirror didn't have any hints, but as time went on, some of the soul marks on the Soul Summoning Mirror really began to dim, which meant that some of the soul bodies that went out had been attacked.
"What should I do, do you want to recall them?" Mu Yuqing asked with some concern.
Lin Xingchen shook his head, he wanted to continue to see what was going on.
However, after only half a day, I didn't expect that the entire soul memory of those soul bodies that had disappeared before disappeared from the soul summoning mirror, Mu Yuqing felt that something was wrong, and tried to summon them a few times, but did not receive any response.
"Let's summon the others back first!" Lin Xingchen said.
Mu Yuqing followed his words and summoned the remaining slightly weak and normal soul bodies back through the soul memory.
Those soul bodies with normal soul memories did not have any accidents, but the soul bodies of those weak soul memories looked shocked at this time.
"What's going on?" Lin Xingchen asked in a deep voice to the frightened soul bodies.
"Back... Returning to the Pavilion Lord... We..."
This soul body was obviously greatly stimulated, and he couldn't even say it clearly, if he showed signs of life now, I was afraid that his face would be extremely pale.
"Slowly, what happened?" Mu Yuqing said with a reassuring look.
"Me and another companion.... Originally, I wanted to go to the Butterfly Fairy Valley.... Gather some ingredients, but what I didn't expect was... Halfway through, we meet a mysterious man in a black cloak... No... He's not human... It should be a soul like us... It's just that we've never seen such a terrifying soul body... He was like a devil, his eyes were like a black hole, he didn't even have eyeballs, he just looked at us like that... After that, I lost consciousness and woke up and was back here..."
The soul body had clearly not yet recovered from its fear, and the blank look in his eyes was a testament to how helpless he was now.
"Take him down first!" Lin Xingchen ordered.
After all the soul bodies withdrew from the council hall, Lin Xingchen vented all his temper~ out, and he smashed the table in front of him with one palm, and the anger in his eyes burned.
He had already understood that as long as the soul body of the Soul Devouring Pavilion went out, it would definitely be robbed by that mysterious person.
