“Is he dead or alive?”

Zhu Asi felt strange and wanted to check on the savage.

However, the various parts of the savage’s body began to move on their own.

Seeing the savage in this state, Liang Sisi’s expression was one of panic and fear. She could not help but say, “He looks like a puppet that children play with.’

What Liang Sisi said was true. Although the others did not see the strings on the savage, Jiang Ming saw the strings clearly.

He immediately understood.

This savage was actually a puppet controlled by someone.

He did not know who was controlling this puppet.

Immediately after, people who looked like the savage came to the house one after another.

Sikong Wuyuan was stunned and asked, “Is this an army of savages?”

“No, to be precise, it should be a puppet army.”

Having seen the strings for the first time, Jiang Ming could clearly see the strings of the other puppets.

However, Sikong Wuyuan and the others did not see their strings.

Sikong Wuyuan was confused. He looked at one of the savages carefully, but he still could not see the strings.

Regardless, the most urgent situation was this group of savages. They walked toward Jiang Ming and the others with loud steps.

“How are we going to resolve this now?”

Zhu Asi frowned and looked ahead. He estimated that there were more than ten people.

They were outnumbered.

He glanced at Ling Yunxiao and Xie Zhizhi, who were being very intimate while ignoring the matter. He immediately felt helpless and even frowned.

What should he do?

Jiang Ming raised his eyebrows and thought about his previous moves. He looked at Sikong Wuyuan and the others and said, “Sikong Wuyuan, do you have a fan?”

Sikong Wuyuan felt that this was an odd thing to ask, but he still took out his fan. After taking it out, he asked, “Ning Caichen, what do you want a fan for?”

Upon hearing Jiang Ming’s words, Liang Sisi and Zhu Asi also took out their own fans. Even Ling Yunxiao, who had been immersed in his own world, took out his own fan.

Jiang Ming raised his eyebrows and glanced at Ling Yunxiao.

He finally had gained some situational awareness.

Then, the savage also approached Jiang Ming.

Jiang Ming glanced at these people and released the fans he had collected.

The moment the fans got close to the savage, they immediately shrunk and cut the strings on their bodies.

The savages instantly fell to the ground in a pile.

“These savages are really puppets.”

Sikong Wuyuan had not believed Jiang Ming when he had first heard him, but now he believed him.

“Let’s go and see who the mastermind is.”

Jiang Ming felt that the mastermind had not run too far, so he simply ran forward.

Sikong Wuyuan had the same thought as Jiang Ming and followed him forward.

Liang Sisi and Zhu Asi followed.

However, they searched left and right. Alas, they still could not find the mastermind.

Jiang Ming found it strange. He set up a barrier around him and added a few more mechanisms around the barrier.

When the mechanisms were completed, Jiang Ming took Sikong Wuyuan and the others to hide in the bushes and waited for the mastermind. His sixth sense told him that the mastermind had not left and was still wandering around the area.

Perhaps the other party was planning to give them a hard blow.

After a while, the mechanism rang and made a sound.

Jiang Ming walked out.

The bait had taken the bait. It was time to receive the results.

However, the person who came stunned Jiang Ming.

Not only Jiang Ming, but even Sikong Wuyuan and the others were stunned.

The other party was a woman, but she looked exactly like Xie Zhizhi.

If he did not know that Xie Zhizhi was in the room, Jiang Ming would have suspected that this was Xie Zhizhi.

The woman who looked like Xie Zhizhi was dressed in black, but her eyes carried a different ruthlessness from Xie Zhizhi’s ruthlessness.

“Was it you who set up the trap?”

She stared at Jiang Ming and sized him up.

She saw that the kid in front of her was doing something silently. It turned out that he was setting up a trap.

Sikong Wuyuan quietly left.

He felt that Xie Zhizhi should take the stage and take care of this woman who looked like her.

“Yeah,” Jiang Ming replied. “Now it’s my turn to ask, who are you and what is your relationship with Xie Zhizhi?”

“Xie Zhizhi?”

Unexpectedly, the woman did not seem to hear the first half of Jiang Ming’s sentence. Instead, she raised her eyebrows and asked, “Where is Xie Zhizhi?”

Just as she was saying this, Sikong Wuyuan had already brought Xie Zhizhi over.

Behind Xie Zhizhi was Ling Yunxiao.

“Xie Zhizhi, why aren’t you going back to being a mermaid princess? What are you doing here?”

The woman bared her teeth and made a fierce face at Xie Zhi.

Ling Yunxiao shielded Xie Zhizhi behind him and glared at the woman, “Be more polite to Xie Zhizhi. How can you say that!”

Xie Zhizhi stared at the woman and whispered, “Xie Qianling, why are you here?”

Although her tone was calm, Xie Qianling still caught the meaning of Xie Zhizhi’s words.

“Xie Zhizhi, are you blaming me for ruining your plans?” she sneered.

Jiang Ming was watching everything from the side.

He had a vague feeling that Xie Qianling might have something to do with the mermen thinking that he was the mermaid princess.

Xie Qianling did not forget to talk to Jiang Ming. She said to him, “Ning

Caichen, quickly unlock the mechanism!”

The trap that Jiang Ming had set up was similar to a mousetrap. Xie Qianling’s feet were tightly clamped at this moment. She tried hard but found that she could not break free at all.

Even if she used spiritual energy, she still could not open it.

“How do you also know that my name is Ning Caichen?”

Jiang Ming realized this problem and could not help but be confused.

Could this be a unique characteristic of mermen?

The next moment, Xie Qianling gave him an answer.

“I’m a mermaid, it’s normal for me to know.”

Jiang Ming looked at the mechanism at Xie Qianling’s feet and said, “Xie Qianling, I can unlock the mechanism for you, but you have to promise me one thing. You have to answer all my questions correctly.”

Xie Qianling felt that Jiang Ming was going overboard, but she had no choice but to agree to Jiang Ming’s request when she saw the trap.

Jiang Ming voiced his doubts and said, “Why did those mermen call me the mermaid princess?”

Xie Qianling was stunned for a moment before she burst out laughing.

“I didn’t expect the mermen to think that you’re the mermaid princess now?”

Xie Zhizhi could not help but be dumbfounded. She looked at Jiang Ming and said, “Ning Caichen, why would the mermen call you the merman princess?”

“I don’t know.”

Jiang Ming spread his hands.

He was also confused..
