Chapter 218: Chapter 99: The Perfect Girl, The Favored Fugitive

“Where is he now?” asked the woman called the Female Superior coldly.
“According to my sense of smell, he should be in the territory of the Blue Sky Demon Spirit Emperor, seems like he’s chasing after someone. Madame, I really haven’t been involved in worldly affairs for a long time. Usually, I just hide in the forest picking fruits and sleeping; I don’t really pay much attention to people like Xia Guanghan from Nightmare Demon Palace. Let me go, think about it, my legs are so short, how long will it take me to crawl back to my nest?” The raccoon-like creature opened its ugly big mouth and spoke quickly.
“Are you sure he’s in the territory of the Blue Sky Demon Spirit Emperor?” the Female Superior asked again.
“Definitely, I wouldn’t dare lie to you.” The raccoon-like creature immediately raised its fluffy paws and said.
“Hmm, you can go back on your own now.” The Female Superior said.
As soon as her voice fell, the Starlight Soul Pet suddenly opened its claws, and the raccoon-like creature immediately let out a sharp scream, falling straight down from hundreds of meters in the air!
Usually, when Soul Pet Masters enter a wild area, they will deliberately put away their flying soul pets and walk on the ground, because flying within the territory of a Soul Pet is highly taboo.
However, this woman showed no intention of stopping. She directly rode the Starlight Soul Pet into the dreaded Southern Forbidden Domain.
High above the Sky Forest, Chu Mu continued to move slowly on the Night Thunder Dream Beast.
The closer they get to the center of the Sky Forest, the deeper the blue color on the ground becomes. Under the moonlight and starlight, this color becomes more dazzling and enchanting.
As they went deeper. Chu Mu could gradually feel a strong aura of demon spirit and wood element spreading through the air, giving his heart a strange feeling, which was somewhat oppressive and also somewhat ethereal as if he was in a secluded paradise.
“Hiss— hiss-
Suddenly, the Night Thunder Dream Beast stopped, standing quietly on a flower blanket full of blue petals, its eyes gleaming with a faint luster in the moonlight, staring ahead.
Chu Mu could see the objects ahead in the darkness. What surprised him was that about 200 meters away, a strange black tree appeared.
These black trees were not tall, and their bodies were not covered with any branches or leaves. They looked like withered trees with drooping arms. They stood in orderly rows in this blue sky forest, making Chu Mu feel like they were a group of guards protecting something.
Chu Mu didn’t know much about soul pets, and he had never seen the soul pets that looked like guards before. He could only vaguely guess from their restrained aura that they were probably all at the Warrior Level.
Of course, if a War General-level soul pet has been living in a special environment for a long time, its abilities will often be much stronger than those of a normal war general-level Wood Type Soul Pet grown in the outside world.
The Black Wood Demon Soldiers in front of them had obviously been nurtured by this special environment, making them strengthened soul pets that were likely on par with Commander-level soul pets in the outside world.
What surprised Chu Mu the most was the stage of these Black Wood Demon Soldiers. When Chu Mu used his Soul Sense to scan them, he could roughly judge that almost all of them were above the Seventh-rank, and even the tallest of the Black Wood Demon Soldiers had reached the Eighth Stage.
“Woo woo MO Ye let out a soft sound to Chu Mu.
“Yeah, that place might be where the strong demon spirit aura is.” Chu Mu nodded and deliberately glanced behind him.
Chu Mu couldn’t afford to move forward easily anymore. Once he crossed into the territory guarded by these Black Wood Demon Soldiers, he would surely be besieged by dozens of them with a rank of Seventh Stage and above.
Behind him, Chu Mu had already sensed Xia Guanghan’s presence getting closer and closer through the imprint on the White Nightmare Demon’s body. Therefore, he had to figure out a way to pass through the blockade of these Black Wood Demon Soldiers and sneak into the territory of that mysteriously powerful Demon Spirit, allowing the Night Thunder Dream Beast to quietly absorb the pure and dense Demon Spirit energy inside.
“MO Ye, try using the Evil Eye Demon Subdue to see if you can control the nearest Black Wood Demon Soldier. Ye, be prepared to maintain your Night
Dance state at all times. If MO Ye accidentally awakens them, be sure to help MO Ye hide promptly,” Chu Mu instructed his two Soul Pets.
MO Ye quickly nodded, maintaining Chu Lian’s state as he jumped down from Chu Mu’s body, immediately stepping lightly with elegant swings of his beautiful nine tails, looking like a harmless and adorable creature as he slowly approached the edge of a Black Wood Demon Soldier’s position.
MO Ye was highly skilled and daring, completely pretending to be a harmless little creature, hopping and climbing onto the body of the Black Wood Demon Soldier nearest to the edge.
When the plant soul pets were still, small creatures would often run onto their shoulders and frolic. Generally speaking, plant soul pets didn’t pay any special attention to these little creatures unless they had to catch them specifically.
At this moment, MO Ye’s Chu Lian’s skill was put to good use. The Seventh Stage Black Wood Demon Soldier didn’t see MO Ye as a threat, not caring when MO Ye climbed onto its shoulder.
The closer MO Ye got, the more effective the Evil Eye Demon Subdue would be. MO Ye didn’t need to undo Chu Lian’s state. The flickering silver pupils immediately transformed into Evil Eye’s effect, secretly manipulating the Black Wood Demon Soldier without arousing any suspicion.
“Oh? Oh?” The Black Wood Demon Soldier let out a strange sound, turning its skull around in confusion, looking at the surrounding Black Wood Demon Brothers who were dozing off…
Finally, the Black Wood Demon Soldier slowly started moving its withered tree trunk-like legs, taking a few steps to the side.
“Very well, move them away one by one,” Chu Mu immediately smiled.
Following the same method, MO Ye, who was ignored by these Black Wood
Demon Soldiers, began to reposition them one by one. These Black Wood Demon Soldiers made way for Chu Mu and the Night Thunder Dream Beast on a path that would not be noticed by them.
Once all the Black Wood Demon Soldiers had been moved, the Night Thunder Dream Beast began to infiltrate with its Night Dance, extremely slowly walking past the rows of snoring Black Wood Demon Soldiers.
A dazed Black Wood Demon Soldier suddenly raised its head, apparently sensing the Night Thunder Dream Beast passing by it.
“Ye, Dreamland!” Chu Mu reacted quickly, immediately ordering the Night Thunder Dream Beast to use the Dreamland skill on the suddenly awakened Black Wood Demon Soldier.
As soon as the Black Wood Demon Soldier had just awakened and was about to discover Chu Mu and the Night Thunder Dream Beast, it was quickly hit by the Night Thunder Dream Beast’s Demon Spirit skill and fell back into a daze, falling asleep once more.
After crossing the external guards, Chu Mu breathed a slight sigh of relief, continuing to let the Night Thunder Dream Beast maintain its Night Dance state as they carefully proceeded deeper.
As they entered the inner area guarded by the Black Wood Demon Soldiers, various blue flowers appeared beneath Chu Mu’s feet. These blue flowers looked like scattered stars, densely scattered in this sky-bound forest, giving people a sense of aesthetic pleasure.
As they moved further in, the blue flowers became more and more abundant. With each step, Chu Mu gradually felt as if he was entering a blue sea of flowers, stepping on the soft, large petals below him
For some reason, Chu Mu remembered that when he was at a distance, he should have been able to see the unique natural wonder at the heart of this
Ninth-level Mysterious Realm after passing through the outer perimeter of the Black Wood Demon Soldiers. However, as the Night Thunder Dream Beast moved deeper, this deep blue petal world seemed endless.
“Woo woo ‘ ‘MO Ye emitted a soft cry to Chu Mu.
Chu Mu glanced at MO Ye and said, “You’re also starting to feel strange, aren’t you?”
Chu Mu didn’t particularly like the blue sea of flowers, as it always reminded him of some happy times in the past. This deep blue color evoked an irresistible melancholy, making one dwell on once past events within the melancholy.
“Woo woo—” MO Ye made a sound again, as if it had found something, and suddenly jumped off Chu Mu’s shoulder, running towards a huge flower bud.
Seeing MO Ye suddenly leave, Chu Mu immediately commanded the Night Thunder Dream Beast to follow.
“What’s wrong, MO Ye?” Chu Mu looked puzzled at the blue flower in front of him, which was taller than a person and about to bloom, and suddenly felt that this scene was so familiar.
What appeared before Chu Mu was a huge, blue, unopened flower. The height of the flower was on a par with Chu Mu, and it was covered with crystal-clear night dew, the droplets shimmering charmingly under the moonlight.
The quietly standing, unopened blue flower seemed like a closed, blue melancholic heart, stirring a longing and curiosity in people’s hearts, making them wonder how beautiful the flower would be when it bloomed or whether there were any special spirit items hidden within it…
“Woo woo woo—— woo woo” MO Ye let out a series of angry cries.
Chu Mu jumped down from the Night Thunder Dream Beast and stared at the dreamy blue bouquet.
When he saw the unopened blue flower, Chu Mu’s eyes changed completely, showing astonishment, surprise, incredulity, and many more complex emotions.
“Could it be…” Chu Mu was stunned for a moment, and in the next moment, he showed unprecedented excitement.
It was hard for Chu Mu to suppress the surging emotions in his heart, so he began to release his soul sense to probe the life within the blue unopened flower.
However, just like before, as Chu Mu’s soul sense probed into it, the deep blue flower began to tremble slightly and slowly opened under the crystal-clear moonlight and dew.
Waves of fragrance wafted over, making Chu Mu’s heart ripple for a moment. The scent was intoxicating and mesmerizing, easily making one’s thoughts drift away.
However, Chu Mu was not completely bewitched by the fragrance at this time. His eyes were fixed on the slowly blooming deep blue flower.
The petals slowly opened, and the moonlight poured into the beautiful stamen. Suddenly, many small moonlit creatures resembling butterflies flew out from the blue flower, setting off the sacred and pure beauty of the beautiful girl in the stamen!
Chu Mu, who had always been calm in dealing with everything, could no longer control his emotions at this moment. The image of the girl born from the petals in front of him was the deepest memory in Chu Mu’s heart, yet this scene appeared before his eyes once again!!
Eight years ago
Chu Mu was only ten years old, and his soul sense was stronger than most of his peers, reaching the level of a Four Thoughts Soul Master.
However, Chu Tiancheng had told Chu Mu that even though he had reached the level of a Four Thoughts Soul Master and could sign soul pacts with soul pets, he should not sign a soul pact with any soul pet lightly because young Chu Mu could not possibly judge the pros and cons of a soul pet so skillfully.
Chu Mu kept Chu Tiancheng’s words in mind, so even when his mother took him on a journey to some strange places and encountered many soul pets, Chu Mu did not easily sign soul pacts with them.
As for the most profound impression Chu Mu had of his mother, it was the trip they took when he was ten years old. Chu Mu did not have a good relationship with his mother, or rather, they had very little contact. Before the age of ten, the only memory Chu Mu had of her was her cold and proud demeanor. Even when she would smile at him, it was not very friendly…
Perhaps it was because of this, she specifically took Chu Mu to visit some places. Chu Mu knew she was looking for his first soul pet.
Chu Mu could hardly remember where his mother had taken him, but after he had fallen asleep, Chu Mu was no longer in the small Gangluo City or the small Luo region.
It seemed as though he had traveled far, entering a strange world where the ground was covered in brightly colored flowers, as if stepping into an ocean of blossoms…
“Please help me, I don’t want to be a slave.” the life within the flowers
“Soul Pets have lives and souls too. They are not slaves for humans. Regardless of their strength, their dignity and choices deserve respect.”
“Will you help me?”
“Initiating the First Soul Contract.”
“You must open two soul contracts to accommodate me.”
“Why?”
“Because I’m special and not like ordinary Soul Pets.”
“I’ve never heard of a Soul Pet that requires two soul contracts to sign a pact.”
“First Soul Contract, Initiate! Second Soul Contract, Initiate!”
Chu Mu fiercely shook his head, recovering from his deepest memories. His gaze fixed on the beautiful girl amidst the blue petals.
The girl was completely naked, with a perfect figure under the moonlight. Her skin was crystal clear and delicate, exuding an enchanting fragrance that intoxicated. Her waist was slender as a swaying blossom, and her jade legs were smooth and graceful…
She was a girl that could be described as the most exquisite work of art, perfect only in dreams.
With an appearance like an immortal, and a naked body exuding the most sacred aura, it was impossible for a ten-year-old boy to resist…
However, when such a girl who resembled an immortal reappeared in front of Chu Mu, what surged in his heart wasn’t amazement or shock, but an overwhelming torrent…
A runaway Soul Pet!!
This familiar scene in front of him was always familiar, but Chu Mu could never imagine encountering his runaway Soul Pet here! !
