The Peerless Beauty Stuck With Me

Chapter 1225 - 1224: Battle Against the Puppet

"Yeah, from the lower gods to the upper gods, it followed me for countless years, and now that I'm giving it to you, I'm really a bit reluctant."When Wu Suowei wanted to take it back, Tang Rao pounced forward, afraid that he would suddenly regret it.

"Master, please accept my bow. This Thunder Mountain Axe is really nice. Thank you, Master."

As long as there's something good, getting Tang Rao to call someone 'Master' is just a matter of time.

Wu Suowei didn't expect Tang Rao to change his face so quickly.

In the time he called him 'Master,' Tang Rao had already snatched the Thunder Mountain Axe, holding it in his hands and examining it closely.

"This Thunder Mountain Axe is amazing. Even though it has followed you, Master, through countless battles, the edge is still so sharp. It's definitely a good item. Don't worry, Master, I'll treat little axe well in the future."

Just by seeing the large axe Wu Suowei handed over, you could tell Wu Suowei was quite fond of Tang Rao.

"It's called the Thunder Mountain Axe, not 'little axe.' Please show it some respect."

Wu Suowei was quite displeased with Tang Rao referring to his Thunder Mountain Axe as something effeminate.

"Whatever Master says, that's what it is. It'll be called the Thunder Mountain Axe from now on, no more 'little axe.'

Dare to mention 'little axe' again!

Wu Suowei felt uncomfortable but didn't voice his discontent about Tang Rao's incorrect language.

"Master, I'm just a rookie who recently advanced to mid-level god stage. I really don't know what I can do. Why don't you give me a hint?"

Tang Rao made it clear upfront that if he gave his best and still lost, Wu Suowei couldn't put the blame on him.

People have strengths and weaknesses, and Tang Rao might just be the one who doesn't make it.

"You need to have confidence in yourself; you need to believe you can do it. If you lose, I'll chop you up with the Thunder Mountain Axe to feed the dogs!"

Chopping Tang Rao up with the Thunder Mountain Axe to feed the dogs?

That's a bit too ruthless.

"Yes, the disciple promises to complete the task given by Master."

Tang Rao, with all his might, forced out what he believed was a sincere expression.

"Don't go promising me this and that; from tomorrow onwards, it's going to be devil style training. Until you pass the training, you don't eat, and if you starve to death, no one will care."

Devil style training?

Those five words alone could make someone feel suffocated.

Tang Rao clenched his fists and, after pondering for a while, said to Wu Suowei, "Whatever Master says, it is what it is. Master only does this to make me stronger."

Tang Rao said insincere words one after another until he started doubting his own existence, and then he shut up.

"Do you think saying these words will lessen your training? Enjoy your last night well because for the entire month after tonight, you'll be living through hell on earth."

Wu Suowei arranged a room for Tang Rao; inside, it was bright and clean, giving a pretty good impression.

"Seems like this bargain master is a little unreliable, but the accommodations and the gifts are quite nice."

Before sleeping, Tang Rao took out Wu Suowei's Thunder Mountain Axe, looking it over again and again.

This is a divine artifact even upper gods are reluctant to give away, and Wu Suowei just handed it over to Tang Rao. No matter what, Tang Rao needs to have a grateful heart.

The next morning.

Tang Rao wasn't fully awake when his entire house exploded.

Yes, you read that right, and you didn't think wrong, Wu Suowei blew up his house.

Just to wake Tang Rao up.

"Master, what kind of madness is this?"

Tang Rao was still in shock.

In his dream, he thought Bald had gone back on his word, or maybe enemies of Wu Suowei had come seeking revenge.

Never did he think the one who blew up the house was the owner, Wu Suowei.

How hard must he have been on himself to dare to be this ruthless?

"I've been waiting outside for you for a minute, and you didn't come out. Naturally, I had to punish you. If you're late by more than five minutes, your punishment won't just be the house; I'll blow you up too."

Does that mean today Wu Suowei was somewhat merciful?

He only blew up the house and didn't blow up Tang Rao too!

"Well, thank you for that, Master. People used to rise with the rooster crowing. Now the rooster hasn't even crowed, and the house blew up!"

If Tang Rao had a bad temper when waking up, he would've been fighting with Wu Suowei already.

"Master, what do I do now? Practice breaking big stones on my chest or rolling in boiling oil?"

Tang Rao was straightforward; he listed everything he could think of for Wu Suowei to choose from.

"What are you talking about? First, practice close combat wrestling; I want to see how fast you are."

Wu Suowei first tested Tang Rao's speed at close and long distances, as speed is crucial in real combat; being able to fight fast or slow, close or long range.

Only then did he talk about techniques and strength.

Everyone's Heart Method Mantras are different, and they practice differently; Wu Suowei couldn't change that anymore.

"So, am I fighting this training dummy?"

Tang Rao looked around; where were the tools Wu Suowei was supposed to prepare?

"No, you're fighting him!"

Wu Suowei released a person; accurately speaking, it should be a Puppet.

Tang Rao's future training opponents are Puppets, but these Puppets' strength will change as Tang Rao progresses. Tang Rao would never get a chance to imagine what happens if a Puppet gets damaged or if their strength weakens.

"Master, could you tell me this Puppet's level? Just give me an idea."

Strictly speaking, Puppets are considered non-living, but considering them dead is incorrect; they are controlled by powerful individuals, and they can move, their strength sometimes even greater than that of living beings.

Tang Rao could read a living person's strength, but Puppets' strength remained a mystery he couldn't fathom.

"Currently, it's at the late mid-god stage."

Late stage?

Wu Suowei has a high opinion of Tang Rao, giving him a late-stage mid-god opponent from the start.

Only just advancing to the mid-stage mid-god level without a solid foundation, against a late-stage mid-god, who feels no pain, this time Tang Rao felt certain death awaited him.

"Gyroscope, attack!"

Tang Rao wasn't prepared for anything, and Wu Suowei didn't even leave him time to wash his face. Did he want Tang Rao to be a slob?

Upon hearing the command, Gyroscope immediately attacked.

It struck towards Tang Rao's face, as Wu Suowei said, every move the Puppet made created a gust of wind; Tang Rao simply didn't dare to clash directly with it.

"So strong!"

Stepping back two paces, Tang Rao exclaimed.

He thought he could catch his breath, but the Puppet jumped back to him, launching another attack.

Every move targeted the most vulnerable spots on his body.

"Hey, don't hit the face! Didn't your master tell you that? I'm your master's disciple; if you keep trying to kill me, I'll get really angry!"

Tang Rao tried to reason with the Puppet, but to no avail.

It didn't understand a single word Tang Rao said, which greatly frustrated Tang Rao.
