"Leader, your son is fine now. He wasn't controlled by anyone. I used holy light just now. If he were a puppet, he couldn't have remained so calm under the holy light's irradiation. Don't believe Chen Ping's nonsense."
Yuan Baozhong said to Chang Yuang.
"I think Chen Ping simply didn't have a chance to shine, so he fabricated the puppet story. Now that Young Master Chang is fine, it's obviously thanks to Master Yuan's efforts. Chen Ping is unwilling to accept this, and it seems like he wants to steal credit..."
From the side, Zou Zhaolong snorted coldly.
Having heard Zou Zhaolong's words, Chang Yu army also had some reason. Just now, he had asked Chen Ping to take action, but before Chen Ping could even make a move, his son was already fine. He hadn't even given Chen Ping a chance to show off!
It seems Chen Ping was a bit discontented and wanted to show off in front of me, so he fabricated the story about his son being a puppet. This way, he could get me involved, and then when his son recovered, it would be attributed to Chen Ping's skill!
"Hmph, at such a young age, you don't study hard and even learn to steal credit. My son is fine now, and you still want to lay your hands on him. If you dare to touch him again, believe me or not, I'll make sure you can't get out of here?"
The reserves looked at Chen Ping, their eyes filled with murderous intent!
Seeing the look in Chang Yu's eyes, Zhao Wuji was frightened. He tugged at Chen Ping's sleeve: "Mr. Chen, forget it... Let's think about this more carefully!"
"Today I must eliminate this puppet worm, or the consequences will affect more than just them."
Chen Ping remained unmoved. He had already decided to eliminate the puppet worm, otherwise, he didn't know what would happen next. It could even lead to a massacre!
Mr. Chen, Yuan Baozhong just tested with holy light and Changyuan is fine...
Zhao Wují doesn't understand why Chen Píng is so stubborn!
"Hmph, that so-called holy light of his is nothing but a lie to deceive you all. They were all scared off by the puppet worms just now. Yuan Baozhong wouldn't be unaware of this. He said it all to prevent me from taking credit for myself!"

Chen Ping had long seen through Yuan Baozhong's ramblings. Since Yuan Baozhong had just witnessed the puppet worms with his own eyes, how could he not know that Chang Yuan was now under the control of the puppet worms!
"Don't talk nonsense. I think you want to take all the credit for yourself?" Zou Zhaolong said with disdain.
"No matter if my son is a puppet, I won't let you harm him in the slightest..."
The auxiliary troops stood firm, their faces resolute, and they protected Chang Yuan fiercely.
"Well then, don't blame me for being rude..."
After Chen Ping finished speaking, he waved his hands in front of him. Red light lines began to fill the entire hall!
"I'll show you what true holy light is..."
As soon as Chen Ping finished speaking, a burst of red light flooded the hall. Everyone felt as if they were engulfed in flames!
"Ah…………"
Chang Yuan, under the glare of this red light, suddenly cried out in pain!
Upon seeing this, the reinforcements' eyes widened, and their figure swiftly rushed towards Chen Ping. The aura emanating from them suddenly soared to its peak!
But Chen Ping completely ignored the reinforcements. With their current strength, they wouldn't be able to hurt him!
As expected, when the reinforcements arrived in front of Chen Ping, they slapped out with a palm. Immediately afterward, a powerful force rebounded, causing the reinforcements to retreat several steps backwards with a thumping sound!
The auxiliary troops looked at Chen Ping in disbelief, but the anger on their faces grew stronger.
"Zhao Wujie, don't you step in and stop him? Are you trying to get fired?"
The reserves yelled at Zhao Wujie, who was still stunned.
Upon hearing this, Zhao Wujī immediately became as agitated as ants on a hot pot, looking at Chen Píng with pleading eyes: “Mr. Chen, you should just stop…”
"Master Zhao, if you trust me, just watch from the side. If not, then feel free to make your move..."
Chen Ping had made up his mind to exterminate these puppet worms!
