Chapter 1846: Chapter 969: Grain by Grain, the Sea is Formed
In the night.
Outside Chenās Manor, Da Yu controlled 25 artworks to launch an ambush, only to unexpectedly find that the garrison forces had been relocated without his knowledge!
The entire Chenās Manor appeared exceptionally desolate in the darkness, as if it had become a haunted house.
Da Yu stood in place, stunned: "Why is there no defense force?"
"Stop dwelling on these things. No matter how many doubts you have, you still have to fight your way in," Zard said.
The two of them continued killing their way inside the manor. The Chief Butler, who had served the Chen Clan for 36 years, stood by the roadside, smiling at Da Yu and Zard: "Good evening, young master, welcome home."
Da Yu sneered: "Playing the part after being made into a puppet?"
The Chief Butler smiled: "Do you really want to oppose me? Itās truly a pity."
This Chief Butler did not intend to fight, and Da Yu didnāt want to kill someone who had taken care of him since childhood, so he continued deeper inside, seeking his mother, Chen Ningzhi.
As Da Yu and Zard proceeded inward, the Chief Butler stood alone in the manorās darkness, watching their backs.
He was like an NPC in a game, quietly observing everything.
Strange.
Along the way, Da Yu encountered more than thirty once-familiar faces: maids, chefs, gardeners, guards.
They stood by the roadside with eerie smiles, each repeating the same sentence: "Do you really want to oppose me? Itās truly a pity."
Zard felt a chill: "Why does this guy persist like a ghost? What does he want?"
"Donāt mind him; find my mother and letās go!" Da Yu said.
Qing Chen held onto a syringe, as it was an essential taboo against the Puppet Master and couldnāt be lent to Da Yu; it must be kept in the safest place.
So, what Da Yu had to do was, regardless of whether his mother, Chen Ningzhi, had become a puppet, as long as he could forcibly take her away, there was still hope.
Reaching the villa at the center of the manor, Da Yu sent Yu Yan to scout ahead, only to find the entire villa empty, except for the Chen Clan Family Head, who stood smiling in the center with Chen Ningzhi in tow.
Da Yu didnāt feel a deep affection for this grandfather; the man was solely focused on wresting power from Chen Yu, paying no heed to family bonds.
But his mother, Chen Ningzhi, was different. While others were busy vying for power, she took young Da Yu and left City No. 7, traversing many roads, seeing countless landscapes, and encountering numerous rare animals.
In summer, they caught cicadas; in winter, they built snowmen; in spring, they flew kites; in autumn, they harvested fruits.
Da Yuās childhood was joyful.
His life wasnāt like those struggling in secluded mansions, but rather fulfilling and free.
So when faced with a choice, he ultimately decided to return to Chenās Manor, risking it all.
Da Yu knew this decision was wrong, but not every decision in this world needs to be the right one.
The puppet Family Head of the Chen Clan smiled: "Do you want to take your mother away? How about we strike another deal? Kill that Zard beside you, and Iāll return your mother to you."
"Is this game fun for you?" Da Yu replied coldly, "I understand; itās because youāre not truly human, devoid of humanity, so you wish others were like you, isnāt that right?"
The Chen Clan Family Head hesitated: "That viewpoint quite fits my mindset."
Da Yu said, "But not all bionic beings are like you; the bionic being of Qing Zhen, ancestor of Qingās Family, was full of humanity."
The Chen Clan Family Head shook his head: "He was granted Godās blood when he was created, making him complete from the start."
"No, whether you have humanity isnāt related to having Godās blood or not," Da Yu said. "Iām sure my mother has become your puppet, but itās okay; we have a way to cure her."
The Chen Clan Family Head admired: "Qing Chen is indeed the greatest threat, having obtained such a taboo item."
Previously, when Qing Chen rescued Qing Shuli and the other puppets, he used a syringe. The Puppet Master could only sense his puppets disappearing en masse and then reappearing.
At that time, the Puppet Master suspected Qing Chen possessed a taboo item that could restrain him, but he wasnāt certain.
Da Yu stopped wasting words with the Puppet Master: "Zard, grab my mother; letās fight our way out!"
But Chen Ningzhi smiled and said, "Todayās little episode is particularly vivid and interesting, but if you both want to fight your way out, Iām afraid itās unlikely."
They turned abruptly to look outside, only to see an elderly Chen Clan painter slowly entering through the manor gates, followed by a vehicle.
The Chen Clan painter retrieved painting scrolls from the car and crushed them one by one, shattering 200 in one go!
The puppet Chen Clan painter smiled: "To retain the two of you, Iāll use 200 scrolls as a sign of respect."
In the next moment, two hundred flying goddesses donned in red silk hovered gracefully in the air, their figures alluring.
These were two hundred A-Class Artworks; how could Da Yu and the others possibly defeat them?
In merely a face-off, Da Yuās 25 A-Class Artworks were surrounded by the flying goddesses.
In just three breaths, the opponent used nearly ten times the quantity to crush him; this was a gap that even the Death Shroud couldnāt bridge.
Da Yuās pupils contracted suddenly, realizing a problem ā artworks were one-time use, and if the opponent could produce 200 scrolls at once, they might have ten times that amount in reserve.
