I created Qin Tianjian in modern times

"Oh, right, Xueyao." Bai Wei suddenly remembered something, "Do you think these blood corpses are related to the Blood Puppet Sect that has been rumored recently?"

"Blood Puppet Sect?" Lu Xueyao raised her eyebrows. "You mean, these blood corpses might have been created by them?"

"This possibility cannot be ruled out." Bai Wei analyzed, "The Blood Puppet Sect is famous for making puppets. If they can create such a powerful blood corpse, then their strength really cannot be underestimated."

Lu Xueyao took a deep breath. "If this is true, then we have to find out as soon as possible. If the Blood Puppet Sect really has such strength, it will be a huge threat to the entire martial arts world."

The conversation between the two gradually faded away in the night, but the fire of justice in their hearts burned brighter and brighter.

They know that the road ahead is still long, but no matter how great the difficulties are, they will move forward bravely for justice and for peace in the world.

As time went on, the topic of their conversation gradually shifted from serious battle analysis to lighthearted chit-chat.

Bai Wei suddenly asked: "Xueyao, have you ever thought about what kind of life we ​​would live if we were not immortal cultivators?"

Lu Xueyao smiled slightly and fell into deep thought. "I haven't really thought about this question. But I think that no matter if we are immortal cultivators or not, we will all work hard to pursue the life we ​​want."

"That's true." Bai Wei smiled, "But sometimes I envy the lives of ordinary people. Although they don't have the power like us, they also have their own happiness and joy."

"Yes, everyone has his or her own path to follow. Since we have chosen the path of cultivating immortals, we must shoulder the corresponding responsibilities." Lu Xueyao said, with a determined light in her eyes.

As the night progressed, the two talked less and less, and they sat quietly by the campfire, enjoying this rare quiet time.

In this dark forest, two young cultivators sat side by side, their hearts filled with expectations for the future and persistent pursuit of justice.

As night fell, the lights of the temporary camp in the mountains flickered. Lu Xueyao and Bai Wei walked into the tent one after the other, temporarily leaving behind the day's battles and fatigue. At this moment, they only had doubts about the blood corpse incident.

"Xueyao, do you really think that the wounds of those blood corpses healed so quickly because of the effects of drugs or magic?" Bai Wei asked while organizing the documents on the table.

Lu Xueyao nodded and said solemnly: "Didn't you see? Those wounds healed almost immediately before our eyes. This can't be a natural phenomenon."

"That's true." Bai Wei frowned, "But if it's really a drug or a spell, then the power behind it cannot be underestimated."

Lu Xueyao chuckled, "Why, are you scared?"

"Afraid? How could I be afraid!" Bai Wei glared at Lu Xueyao and pouted in pretend anger, "I'm just worried. If there really is a force behind this, then our situation will be dangerous."

"Don't worry, there will always be a way out." Lu Xueyao comforted, "What we need to do now is to find the force behind this and then annihilate them in one fell swoop!"

Bai Wei was amused by Lu Xueyao's words, "It's easy for you to say that, but finding out the power behind it? That's easier said than done."

"It's not easy, but we have to find them." Lu Xueyao said seriously, "We can't let these blood corpses continue to harm the world."

The two fell into a brief silence, and the atmosphere in the tent became somewhat solemn. Suddenly, Bai Wei seemed to have thought of something and said, "By the way, Xueyao, have you noticed the eyes of those blood corpses?"

"Eyes? What's wrong?" Lu Xueyao asked curiously.

"It seems that their eyes have no pupils." Bai Wei recalled the battle during the day, "It's like they are controlled by something."

Lu Xueyao frowned when she heard this. "Controlled? You mean, these blood corpses might have been artificially modified?"

"Yes!" Bai Wei nodded, "Also, I suspect this transformation process may be related to some forbidden technique."

Lu Xueyao took a deep breath, "If this is true, then our enemies may be much stronger than we thought."

"Then what should we do now?" Bai Wei asked worriedly.

A trace of determination flashed in Lu Xueyao's eyes. "No matter what, we must find out the power behind this. I think we can start from the place where those blood corpses appeared."

"Good idea!" Bai Wei's eyes lit up, "Maybe we can find some clues."

Lu Xueyao and Bai Wei sat by the lamp, their eyes fixed on a token on the table.

This token was found by them from the blood corpse before, and it was engraved with mysterious and ancient runes.

"Xueyao, can you understand these runes?" Bai Wei asked with a frown.

Lu Xueyao shook her head. "These runes are very ancient. I seem to have seen them somewhere before, but I can't remember where for the moment."

"Could it be the key to controlling the blood corpse?" Bai Wei guessed.

“Maybe.” Lu Xueyao picked up the token and observed it carefully. “These runes seem to have some kind of pattern. If we can decipher it, maybe we can find a way to control the blood corpse.”

The two men were lost in thought, and the camp was silent except for the occasional crackle of the lights.

"Oh, my head hurts!" Bai Wei suddenly rubbed her temple, "My eyes are blurry from looking at these runes."

Lu Xueyao chuckled, "Who told you to stare so hard? You need to combine work and rest."

"It's easy for you to say that, but this is related to whether we can find the key to controlling the blood corpse!" Bai Wei glared at Lu Xueyao and pouted in pretending to be angry.

Seeing this, Lu Xueyao quickly coaxed him, "Okay, okay, I know you're worried, but being anxious won't solve the problem. We have to study it slowly."

Bai Wei's expression eased a little after hearing this, "Then what do you say we should do?"

"In my opinion, we should take a rest first and then study it tomorrow when our minds are clearer," Lu Xueyao suggested.

Bai Wei thought about it and nodded in agreement, "Okay, I'll listen to you."

The two packed up their things and prepared to rest. However, just as they were about to turn off the lights, Lu Xueyao suddenly screamed, "I remembered!"

"What did you remember?" Bai Wei asked curiously.

"These runes!" Lu Xueyao pointed at the runes on the token excitedly, "I have seen similar runes in an ancient book. They are used to control puppets!"

"Controlled puppets?" Bai Wei's eyes widened. "Are you saying that these blood corpses are actually puppets controlled by runes?"

"That's right!" Lu Xueyao nodded, "These runes are the key to controlling them!"

The two smiled at each other, and their doubts were immediately half resolved. They knew that the next thing to do was to study these runes in depth and find a way to control the blood corpse.

"It looks like we won't be able to sleep tonight." Bai Wei said with a wry smile. "In order to save the people, we have to work harder." Lu Xueyao joked and relit the lights.

In the following time, the two began to carefully study the runes on the token.

Lu Xueyao interpreted the meaning of the runes one by one based on the contents of the ancient books in her memory, while Bai Wei took notes and tried to understand the logic of these runes.

As time went by, they gradually discovered the secret of the runes. It turned out that these runes not only controlled the actions of the blood corpses, but also stimulated the potential in the blood corpses, making them more powerful.

"How abominable! These runes are actually used to control innocent lives!" Bai Wei slammed the table in anger.

Lu Xueyao also looked solemn, "We must find a way to remove the control of these runes as soon as possible, otherwise more innocent lives will be implicated."

The two decided to divide the work and cooperate. Lu Xueyao continued to study how to remove the rune, while Bai Wei was responsible for collecting more information and intelligence.

It was late at night, but the lights in the camp were still bright. Lu Xueyao and Bai Wei fought side by side, working hard to save the people.

Although the road ahead is difficult, they firmly believe that as long as they work together, they will be able to find a solution to the problem.

As they studied more, they found that there seemed to be some subtle connection between these runes. Whenever they solved the secret of a rune, they would always find another rune related to it.

"This is like a huge mystery. Every time we solve a part, we get closer to the truth." Lu Xueyao sighed.

Bai Wei nodded. "Yes, although the process is difficult, every time I make a discovery, the sense of accomplishment is really exciting."

The two smiled at each other and continued to devote themselves to their research. They knew that they were getting closer and closer to the truth.

The night is as dark as ink, and the stars dot the sky like gems scattered by the gods.

Lu Xueyao and Bai Wei were both wearing black tights, with veils covering their faces, revealing only two pairs of bright eyes.

They were like two nimble cats, moving silently among the woods.

"Xueyao, are you sure we are not going in the wrong direction?" Bai Wei asked uncertainly. She always felt that this dark forest was like a maze and it would be easy to get lost if she was not careful.

Lu Xueyao smiled confidently, "Don't worry, my sense of direction is famously accurate. Just follow me, you will definitely go right."

As they talked, they moved forward cautiously. Suddenly, Lu Xueyao made a gesture to silence them and pointed to a bright light ahead.

A dilapidated hut could be vaguely seen there, with a flickering fire inside, and it seemed that someone was moving around inside.

"It seems we have found the right place." Lu Xueyao whispered, "This should be the hiding place of the Blood Puppet Sect's disciples."

Bai Wei nervously clenched the sword in her hand, "What should we do now? Should we just rush in?"

"No rush, let's observe first." Lu Xueyao shook her head, signaling Bai Wei to stay calm.

The two found a secluded place to hide and quietly observed the cabin.

After a while, the door of the hut suddenly opened, and a figure in red came out. He looked around and then walked quickly into the depths of the woods.

"It seems that he went to the bathroom. Let's take the opportunity to go in and take a look." Lu Xueyao said in a low voice.

The two tiptoed towards the hut, and Lu Xueyao gently pushed open the door, and a strong smell of blood hit them. The furnishings in the house were simple, but the walls were covered with strange runes and patterns.

"These runes are very similar to the ones on the token!" Bai Wei said in surprise.

"Yes, it seems we have found the right place." Lu Xueyao nodded, "Let's look for any valuable clues."

The two began to search the house. Suddenly, hurried footsteps were heard. The man in red was back!
"Oh no, hide quickly!" Lu Xueyao pulled Bai Wei and quickly hid in a corner.

The man in red entered the room without noticing them. He walked to a cabinet and took out a thick book. Lu Xueyao and Bai Wei looked at each other, secretly glad that they were not discovered.

At this moment, the man in red suddenly turned around and walked towards the direction where they were hiding. The two held their breath nervously, fearing that they would be discovered.

However, the man in red didn't seem to notice their presence. He just walked to the wall, checked the runes, and nodded with satisfaction.

"Huh——" Lu Xueyao and Bai Wei breathed a sigh of relief at the same time.

After the man in red left, the two quickly walked out from the corner.

"That was a close call!" Bai Wei patted her chest, "I was almost discovered."

"Yes, but we also found important clues." Lu Xueyao picked up the thick book, "This book must record the secrets of the Blood Puppet Sect."

The two of them left the cabin carefully and returned to the camp. Under the light, they began to study the book.

The book records in detail how the Blood Puppet Sect uses runes to control blood corpses as well as their conspiracy plans.

"How abominable! They actually want to use blood corpses to control the entire Zhuzi Kingdom!" Bai Wei slammed the table in anger.

"We must stop them!" Lu Xueyao also showed a determined look, "Now that we have mastered their secrets, the next step is to find a way to disrupt their plans."

It was a dark night. This was a hidden cave, the entrance of which was covered by dense vines and branches. If the two had not observed carefully, it would have been difficult to find.

"Xue Yao, are you sure this is the hiding place of the Blood Puppet Sect?" Bai Wei asked in a low voice, with curiosity and nervousness flashing in her eyes.

Lu Xueyao smiled slightly and answered confidently: "Of course, look at the layout of this cave entrance, there are obvious traces of human intervention. Moreover, I found the unique rune mark of the Blood Puppet Sect nearby before. This must be one of their strongholds."

Bai Wei nodded in agreement. The two looked at each other and started to act in tacit understanding.

Lu Xueyao took out two bottles of potion from her backpack and handed one to Bai Wei. "This is an invisibility potion. After drinking it, we can sneak in more stealthily."

Bai Wei took the potion and drank it without hesitation. Suddenly, the figures of the two became looming, as if blending into the night.

Carefully passing through the vines at the entrance, they entered the cave. The cave was dark and damp, and the air was filled with a nauseating stench.

But both of them are practitioners, and these slight discomforts are not enough to affect them. (End of this chapter)
