Chapter 563: Chapter 563: My Lord, Take Whatever You Fancy

"So there are no other materials left."

Chu Jingjing looked towards Lin Chen and had a sudden realization.

Hearing Chu Jingjing’s words, Yao Qinghe and Yu Weilian, among others, turned their gazes to Lin Chen.

"Lin Chen, we still have some materials here; see if they can be of use to you, and feel free to take them."

Yu Weilian approached Lin Chen, took out the refinement materials from her spatial treasure, and laid them in front of Lin Chen for him to choose.

"Young Master Lin Chen, we also have some materials here. Please, take and use them as you see fit."

"Yes, Young Master Lin Chen, please don’t be polite with us."

Seeing Yu Weilian take out materials, other female disciples of the Divine Flame Sect also started to offer their materials to Lin Chen.

"These... These materials are all hard-earned by you; how can I take your materials?"

Lin Chen looked at everyone and immediately declined.

Even though Lin Chen loved wealth, he knew that a gentleman should acquire it rightfully.

These materials were hard-earned by the members of the Divine Flame Sect, and he couldn’t just claim them for himself.

"Young Master Lin Chen, please don’t refuse. If it weren’t for your protection, we might not even be alive. Don’t stand on ceremony; just take and use these materials."

Yao Qinghe looked at Lin Chen and earnestly said, while also taking out her own Heavenly and Earthly Treasures.

Among the Divine Flame Sect disciples, Yao Qinghe was the most grateful to Lin Chen, since he had rescued her from peril several times.

The other Divine Flame Sect disciples sincerely handed over their treasures to Lin Chen as well, deeply grateful for his care.

Seeing this, Lin Chen was momentarily stunned. It was the first time he had encountered people sincerely willing to give their treasures to him for his use.

In the past, it had always been him exploiting others, leaving them with empty pockets.

"If that’s the case, then I will select some that I can use."

"When we leave the secret realm, I will give a refined puppet to the Divine Flame Sect."

Lin Chen told the group, then began to choose a few useful treasures from the ones they had offered.

Of course, Lin Chen did not intend to take their materials for nothing; he planned to give a puppet to Yu Weilian and the others later on.

Upon hearing this, Yao Qinghe and Yu Weilian just smiled, paying no mind to Lin Chen’s words.

Though, knowing Lin Chen as Yu Weilian did, now that he had spoken such words, he would undoubtedly present a puppet to the Divine Flame Sect at the appropriate time.

However, Yu Weilian intended to decline when the time came; after all, Lin Chen had already helped them significantly, and the materials they provided were nothing in comparison.

Being alive was already more than enough cause for gratitude towards Lin Chen, especially since a large portion of these Heavenly and Earthly Treasures had been obtained from the secret realm, so as long as they could leave the realm alive, they would be making a tremendous gain.

After this exchange, Lin Chen went back to refining puppets, disregarding the opinions of the others.

Using the materials from the group in addition to the skeleton frames he had gathered, Lin Chen refined ten more human-shaped puppets, which, together with the previous thirty, made a total of forty puppets.

After completing the refining of the puppets, Lin Chen felt extremely satisfied as he surveyed the puppet army before him.

The strength of each puppet in this batch had reached the power of the Heavenly Human Realm.

This force was strong enough to rival the senior power echelon of some second-rate sects, and even compel comparison with some first-rate sects, though they could only match the surface strength of the first-rate sects. After all, the reason first-rate sects managed to achieve such status was due to their ancestral heritage; the hidden power within was undeniably beyond comparison with these forty skeleton frames, let alone comparing them to super sects like the Formation Sect.

However, once these human-shaped puppets were brought back to the Jade Cauldron Sect, they were sure to greatly enhance the sect’s strength.

After all, the current Jade Cauldron Sect lacked little in various aspects and even had the mighty War Department’s army; only its upper echelons were deficient in cultivation outliers, lacking even a few truly powerful beings, not to mention a proper Heavenly Human Realm powerhouse.

With the current batch of puppet army, that issue would be considered resolved for the Jade Cauldron Sect.

Having seen the puppet army, Yao Qinghe and Yu Weilian, among others, couldn’t help but feel astonished.

These forty human-shaped puppets could significantly enhance the strength of any power outside the secret realm.

After all, these were Heavenly Human Realm warriors, and forty in number, which was like adding forty True Disciples to a sect at once.

And these human-shaped puppets would obey orders absolutely, without any will of their own.

Once these forty human-shaped puppets appeared outside of the secret realm, the situation in the Eastern Domain was bound to change.

Already a top three power within the Six Sects of the Divine Flame Alliance, with the addition of Lin Chen and these puppets, the Formation Sect could possibly take the lead.

Now, the Red Soul Hall might have a tough time ahead.

Although the Six Sects of the Divine Flame Sect might compete among themselves, as allies they share common roots.

With Lin Chen as a new variable, the longstanding deadlock between the Red Soul Hall and the Divine Flame Alliance was certain to be broken.

After all, Lin Chen didn’t have just those forty human-shaped puppets; he also had several dozen skeleton frames. Providing the Formation Sect were to supply Lin Chen with materials once they left the secret realm, and Lin Chen refined all the skeleton frames, there would surely be an army of several hundred puppets.
