Invincibility Begins with a Super Fairy Manny

Chapter 599: Chapter 599: Heart of Machinery (Third Update)

Upon seeing this puppet, all the disciples of the Puppet Sect let out exclamations of surprise.

“It’s a high-order puppet! Even more powerful than Senior Sister Lu’s Golden Armor puppet from before!”

“No wonder she dared to ask for a duel, Senior Sister Lu is clearly trying to send Senior Sister Liu to her death!”

Amid these discussions, many looked at Liu Kekke with eyes filled with sympathy and pity.

At that moment, Lu Cailan burst into arrogant laughter, “Liu Kekke, where is that piece of junk of yours? Aren’t you going to show up and die?”

Upon hearing Lu Cailan’s taunting, Liu Kekke gritted her teeth and then deployed her own Mechanical Puppet!

As soon as the two colossal puppets faced each other, the high-order puppet charged forward, smashing the Mechanical Puppet back ten steps before it barely managed to stop.

Seeing this, Lu Cailan broke into frantic laughter, “Kill him, crush that pile of junk and this woman into bits!”

Such arrogant words made many slightly frown.

But this was a duel, and once it began, onlookers could not intervene, so they could only watch.

Shan Ruoling watched the situation in the arena with great anxiety, her hands tightly clasped together.

Kekke, you must not have an accident!

Sisters Lian Yunluo and Lian Yunting were also extremely nervous at this moment.

“Master…” Lian Yunting said softly.

But Xue An just crossed his arms and smiled lightly, “Don’t worry, just watch.”

As the high-order puppet heard Lu Cailan’s orders, it went straight for Liu KekKe, about to smash down with a fist.

The Mechanical Puppet rushed over, too late to defend or counter, using its own body as a shield to thoroughly protect Liu Kekke beneath.

Boom.

After a loud noise,

The whole body of the Mechanical Puppet was smashed down by three parts, and the flames burning within its eyes dimmed a lot.

Yet even so, the Mechanical Puppet gently grasped Liu Kekke’s hand, then rolled on the spot to dodge the high-order puppet’s second blow.

The reason why so many disciples exclaimed at the high-order puppet was due to its formidable lethal power.

So before the Mechanical Puppet could rise from the ground, the high-order puppet had already advanced close, kicking its shoulder with its foot.

There was a crisp crack.

An arm of the Mechanical Puppet was kicked off, revealing the sparks and components flickering inside.

The Mechanical Puppet cried out in pain, but even so, it did not let go of Liu Kekke, instead headbutting the high-order puppet’s ankle.

However, after landing a hit, the high-order puppet had already retreated, and the headbutt didn’t touch it in the slightest.

Thus far, only two exchanges had occurred.

Liu Kekke’s Mechanical Puppet had lost an arm, while Lu Cailan’s high-order puppet remained completely unharmed.

Many who cared about Liu Kekke felt their hearts tighten.

By then, Liu Kekke had extricated herself from the Mechanical Puppet’s grasp, her eyes brimming with tears as she touched its broken arm, “Buddy, can you still hold on?”

Of course, the Mechanical Puppet couldn’t speak; it just staggered to its feet, gazing at the enemy with its dim eyes.

By now, Lu Cailan was ecstatic with joy, “Good! Keep torturing them like this! And then grind them to pieces bit by bit!”

The high-order puppet charged again, its speed even more rapid. Despite being dozens of feet tall, its punches and kicks were so fast they were invisible.

The reactions of the Mechanical Puppet were evidently slower, barely keeping up with the onslaught of attacks, retreating step by step.

Finally.

In a moment when the Mechanical Puppet failed to dodge, the high-order puppet drove a finger into its eye socket, then yanked it out.

A dim light was forcefully plucked out.

The Mechanical Puppet trembled in pain, staggering several steps backwards, one eye now reduced to a dark empty socket.

Liu Kekke’s tears burst forth, “Big guy, don’t force yourself! You’re not its match, admit defeat!”

As she spoke, Liu Kekke turned her gaze toward the distant Lu Cailan, her face deathly pale, tremblingly said, “I lost, go ahead and kill me, but please spare my Puppet!”

At these words, Lu Cailan let out a cold scoff, “Tsk, tsk, what touching camaraderie! Fine, get down on your knees and admit defeat, and I will spare your puppet! How about that?”

The statement quieted the entire venue.

All eyes were focused on Liu Kekke.

Shan Ruoling was furious beyond words and said to her mentor, “Master, this Lu Cailan is bullying too much, please save Kekke, will you?”

Wan Chengyi shook his head with a light sigh, “It’s too late! Once you enter the dueling arena, life and death solely depend on victory or defeat! Liu Kekke has lost, no one else can help even if they want to! And I also wonder why Liu Kekke would suddenly agree to a duel?”

Upon hearing this, Shan Ruoling’s eyes filled with tears, staring at Liu Kekke’s frail silhouette in the arena, wishing she could dash down and save her right away.

At that moment, Xue An, who had been standing not far from her, spoke indifferently, “Do you feel the pain of humiliation? Only through this can you begin to transform!”

Hearing this, Shan Ruoling turned her head angrily, but when she saw that it was the Hua Clan man, she couldn’t help but snort in anger.

She thought Xue An was making insensitive remarks, filled with disdain in her heart.

Pitiful Kekke, who still regards you as a senior, never expected that at this critical moment of life and death, you not only offer no assistance, but also stand here uttering nonsense.

Just then, the crowd let out a low gasp of surprise.

Shan Ruoling quickly turned to look, and saw Liu Kekke slowly bend her knees, eventually kneeling in the dust.

This act of kneeling, made many disciples who deeply respected Liu Kekke lower their heads in sorrow.

Shan Ruoling couldn’t help but burst into tears as well.

Lu Cailan, on the other hand, was ecstatic.

“Very good! Liu Kekke, you do know your place!”

Liu Kekke’s face was ghostly white, silent with no reply; her once bright eyes had dimmed, turning hollow and lifeless.

“Kill her!” Lu Cailan excitedly commanded.

The high-rank Puppet stepped forward, raising its fist to strike.

One blow and Liu Kekke would undoubtedly be smashed to a pulp.

But just then, the Mechanical Puppet, having lost an arm and an eye, charged over out of nowhere, mustering all its strength to trade a punch with the high-rank Puppet.

Its power, however, wasn’t even close to that of the high-rank Puppet.

So after the thunderous collision,

The Mechanical Puppet was blasted back, landing on the ground unable to rise again, only managing to lift its head earnestly, gazing at its master kneeling in the distance, the flame in its remaining eye slowly extinguishing.

At that moment, Xue An, who had been standing on the steps, slowly raised his head to look at the sky, then indifferently said.

“Liu Kekke, do you feel it now?”

The voice wasn’t loud, yet reached every corner of the venue.

Liu Kekke shuddered, slowly lifting her head.

Xue An looked down at her from the center of the arena, coldly said, “I once told you, to unleash the true power of this Puppet, you need to feel the heart of the machine! Now I ask you, do you feel it?”

Liu Kekke’s vacant eyes gradually showed a glint of spirit and then she turned to look at the Mechanical Puppet which, despite being at death’s door and unable to stand, still refused to lie down.

After a moment, she slowly nodded, softly said, “I feel it.”

“Then tell me! What is it?” Xue An demanded.

Liu Kekke’s pallid face revealed a determination never seen before, a flame seemingly burning in her eyes.

Then slowly standing up from the ground, she said, each word clearly enunciated, “It is… never… giving… up!”
