Looking at the gray-robed elder before him, Li Chang'an took the opportunity to ask a question.
The elder heard him and took the puppet—the one whose core Li Chang'an had previously shattered—out from his sleeve. "You're quite interested in the Puppetry Skill, aren't you?" he said.
Li Chang'an didn't deny it, nodding. "Primordial Ancestor, your control over the puppets is masterful. Of course I'm interested!"
The gray-robed elder smiled and placed the shattered puppet core on the table. He immediately began repairs, explaining as he worked, "The art of controlling puppets isn't considered high-level. In the Jianghu, it's even called a Forbidden Skill. I can command them as if they were my own limbs only because these Iron Guard Puppets are refined from the corpses of Royal Family masters, mixed with various precious materials!"
He wasn't holding anything back from Li Chang'an.
Or rather, the talent Li Chang'an had displayed was enough to make him breathe a sigh of relief.
