Chapter 1425: Chapter 1425: Lu Changsheng Practices Puppet Skill Chapter 1425: Chapter 1425: Lu Changsheng Practices Puppet Skill Mo Family, generation after generation, has always focused on puppetry.

At the same time, in order to ensure the purity of their bloodline, Mo Family members rarely intermarry with those outside their surname. Only by maintaining the purity of the Mo bloodline could they climb higher in puppetry mastery.

This was enough to prove the Mo Family’s emphasis on the art of puppetry.

And Mo Yu was the eldest daughter of the Mo Family, the daughter of the head of the family.

Therefore, if Mo Yu’s chosen master was not up to par in puppetry, Mo Hanlin would absolutely not allow Mo Yu to continue her cultivation with Lu Changsheng.

In response to Mo Hanlin’s question, before Lu Changsheng could answer, Mo Yu stood in front of him, like a hen protecting her chicks, and shouted loudly, “My master is very powerful!”

Mo Hanlin couldn’t help but twitch his eyebrows.

Hadn’t she been a disciple for long? To have her loyalties turn outward this severely?

“No matter how powerful,” Mo Hanlin said sternly, “if one does not have solid skills in puppetry, they cannot become your master. You must understand that you are my, Mo Hanlin’s, daughter!”

Mo Yu was about to say something else when Lu Changsheng pulled her to one side and said indifferently to Mo Hanlin, “I have never delved into puppetry before this.”

Never delved into puppetry?

Second Elder, Third Elder, and Fourth Elder couldn’t help but smile wryly and shake their heads.

Whereas First Elder and both Fifth Elder and Sixth Elder had subtle changes in their expressions.

Mo Hanlin’s examining visage became even colder.

“You should be aware of my Mo Family’s situation, right?”

Lu Changsheng nodded. On the way here, Mo Yu had already told him.

Mo Hanlin tapped his fingers rhythmically on the wooden table, while the other hand propped up his cheek as he looked askance at Lu Changsheng and said, “Then you should know that our Mo Family absolutely does not permit someone with no achievements in puppetry to become Mo Yu’s master.”

“Of course, you are a benefactor to our Mo Family, having helped my daughter and my disciple greatly. The Mo Family owes you a favor, and you are free to make any request within our ability to grant.”

However, Lu Changsheng just smiled and said, “In that case, my request is simple. Your Mo Family must have records on the art of puppetry in your library. Just let me take a look at those, rest assured, I only need to see the most basic ones.”

Mo Hanlin and the other elders were all taken aback.

Mo Ling and Mo Xing, standing to one side, were also full of confusion.

“Just this request?” Mo Hanlin asked, surprised and doubtful.

Of course, the Mo Family had the most basic records on puppetry; those could be easily obtained in the outside world. Naturally, those of the Mo Family would be more comprehensive and precise.

And since it did not involve any core secrets, it was not considered a difficult request.

Mo Hanlin himself thought that Lu Changsheng would make a greedy demand, but this was it?

Lu Changsheng smiled and nodded, “That’s all I need. I have no other requests for assistance.”

“Of course, if I successfully master puppetry, then Mo Yu will be able to naturally continue her cultivation by my side, right?”

Hearing this, everyone’s expressions changed drastically.

Mo Yu, on the other hand, laughed out loud.

So that was her master’s plan.

And Mo Yu did not think at all that this seemingly impossible task would be too much for her master to handle.

Mo Hanlin, changing from his previous disdain, took his hand from his cheek and the table, looked at Lu Changsheng seriously, and asked in a deep voice, “Are you serious?”

“Puppetry is not something that can be mastered just by reading books. And by looking at only the most basic, you won’t be able to learn anything core; your mastery of puppetry still won’t improve much.”

Lu Changsheng chuckled softly, “All things evolve from the basics.”

First Elder said even more sternly, “Aren’t you taking the art of puppetry a bit too lightly?”

Having immersed himself in the art of puppetry for a lifetime, First Elder was displeased to see someone describe the path he had researched his whole life as something so simple.

“We’ll see when the time comes. If the puppet I create is not satisfactory, then we’ll do it your way,” Lu Changsheng smiled.

At this point in the conversation,

what else could Mo Hanlin and the elders say?

Immediately, Mo Hanlin stood up and said, “Since that’s the case, I’ll take you there.”

After speaking, he left the main building and headed towards the back.

Lu Changsheng followed behind him.

Mo Yu, the elders, as well as Mo Ling and Mo Xing, followed with a mix of belief and doubt.

Behind them, Mo Ling asked in a quiet voice, “Mo Yu, what’s the background of your master? Why is he so confident?”

Mo Yu spread his hands and said, “I’ve never been able to fathom my master’s depth, but with my master’s strength, I estimate there are few things in this world that could pose a difficulty for him.”

…

The library was still primarily wooden in its base tone.

But this seemingly ordinary wood was sturdier than the rarest black iron!

At the entrance, two puppets stood guard on either side, slumbering like sentinels. Even without activation, one could feel the terrifying extent of these two puppets.

They were probably stronger than even the half-demigod-level powerhouses like the Second Elder, Third Elder, and Fourth Elder…

Mo Yu explained at the side, “Both of these puppets are masterpieces of the First Elder.”

Lu Changsheng nodded.

Mo Hanlin stood in front of the library’s entrance and, using a special hand sign, opened the door, then said, “The first floor contains the most basic elements of puppetry. You can look as long as you like, just don’t take anything or go upstairs.”

Lu Changsheng entered the library and left a comment before closing the door.

“It won’t take too long, taking too long would be a waste of time.”

The First Elder, upon hearing this, had an extremely displeased look, “With such disregard for the way of puppets, how can he make any accomplishments in this field?”

After speaking, the First Elder sat down cross-legged on the ground and picked up a book to read.

“This old man really wants to see just how far this individual can go!”

Seeing this, Mo Hanlin and the rest of the elders felt quite helpless.

There was no helping it; the First Elder was indeed very stubborn when it came to the Puppet Skill.

…

After entering the library, even just the basic first floor held hundreds of massive bookshelves, each filled with over a hundred thick volumes.

Upon seeing this, Lu Changsheng shrugged. Of course, he was not going to flip through each book one by one—which would take an eternity?

Lu Changsheng then set up an isolation formation around him and started to release threads of his soul power.

Even just these thread-like wisps of soul power were like a vast sea of stars.

It even made the surrounding space tremble incessantly!

If Lu Changsheng harbored any thoughts of attack, the entire space occupied by the Mo Family would probably collapse outright!

Lu Changsheng used his soul power to meander amongst each bookshelf and every book, causing the pages of each book to flip open and turn rapidly!

Streams of information continuously entered Lu Changsheng’s mind.

Indeed, one could quickly learn by directly contacting a completed puppet and understanding its structure.

But to Lu Changsheng, laying a strong foundation in learning was more important.

Whether it was medicinal pills, formations, talismans, or weapon refinement.

Lu Changsheng started from scratch, self-taught, and then built upon his understanding to erect a high-rise from the foundation.

Only then did he have today’s towering edifice…

Now, with puppetry, Lu Changsheng likewise started from the foundation.
