Chapter 232: Chapter 113: Cold Beauty, Honorable Lady Liu Binglan
Translator: 549690339
Madame Venerate obviously felt that the Illusion Elder was talking too much nonsense and glanced coldly at the old guy.
Madame Venerate would definitely eliminate Xia Guanghan. Otherwise, how could she calm her anger? Moreover, it was obvious that Chu Mu’s current state was caused by Xia Guanghan. Even if he was hiding deep in the Nightmare Demon Palace, Madame Venerate would drag him out.
“Mu’er, don’t worry, I will take care of Xia Guanghan. As for the demonic flames on your body, I will find the Heavenly Earth Immortal Ice to cure it…” Madame Venerate reached out her hand and smiled as she touched Chu Mu’s cheek.
Chu Mu skillfully dodged Madame Venerate’s hand. He was not a child in need of comforting or affectionate actions. He felt uncomfortable with it and also thought that his mother seemed to still see him as a delicate child.
‘You just lie down and rest for now. Mom will pick some ice attribute fruits for you. We’ll talk about that later…” Madame Venerate noticed that Chu Mu seemed to be more and more unwilling to talk, and didn’t know what to say for a while. Thinking that Chu Mu hadn’t eaten anything since he woke up, she started to blame herself for being so careless…
Chu Mu nodded his head. Right now, he felt like there were flames burning in his stomach, and eating anything would be very uncomfortable. Only some ice-attribute fruits seemed appetizing to Chu Mu.
Looking at Madame Venerate leaving, Chu Mu didn’t know how long he had been unconscious; he quickly fed all of his soul pets. He didn’t want them to starve and become dizzy.
In order to be prepared for emergencies, Chu Mu had some food prepared in each of their Soul Pet Spaces. Chu Mu didn’t let them eat the food on normal days, and it was only for some special situations, like when he was unconscious.
After feeding all his soul pets, Chu Mu specifically checked on the White Nightmare Demon. The White Nightmare Demon rarely ate soul cores, and considering it hadn’t been fed with soul power for a while, it must have been extremely frustrated.
“White Demon?” Chu Mu used his telepathy to communicate with the White Nightmare Demon.”
“Nie- ” The White Nightmare Demon weakly responded, seeming to have not recovered yet.
“Alright, stop acting pitiful in front of me. You wanted to devour my soul first.” Chu Mu said.
” The White Nightmare Demon clearly wanted to argue.
“Forget it, I won’t hold it against you. In the future, you will still get 50% of my soul power, but in some special cases, like when I need all my soul power during a battle, you’ll have to make do with soul cores. After that, I’ll provide you with soul power again.” Chu Mu said to the White Nightmare Demon.
It has been four years since Chu Mu raised the soul pet. He didn’t want to give up such a dangerous soul pet so easily. After all, without the constant pressure of the White Nightmare Demon, Chu Mu’s cultivation wouldn’t have reached this level.
In fact, the White Nightmare Demon was Chu Mu’s very first soul pet.
Moreover, he had raised it from its weakest state to its current level. Although Chu Mu was ruthless towards his enemies, he was very loving towards his soul pets.
“Nie!!! Nie!!!!! “The White Nightmare Demon was excited to hear it could still eat soul power and immediately cried out in a series of demonic howls.
The White Nightmare Demon was also maturing in intelligence and naturally knew that it might have offended its master and be abandoned. The master would no longer provide soul power for it to feed on.
However, the White Nightmare Demon didn’t expect Chu Mu to be so generous and not care about these matters. Most importantly, now it could still eat soul power, so it wouldn’t become dispirited.
Having sorted out the White Nightmare Demon’s matters, Chu Mu relaxed slightly. However, he worried that the continuous burning sensation in his soul due to his half-demon state would greatly affect his cultivation.
“Young Master, don’t worry. With Her Highness the Venerate, your soul will surely be healed quickly.” The Illusion Elder saw Chu Mu’s worried look and thought it was time to flatter him. So he quickly jumped to Chu Mu’s side and said.
“Why do you call her Madame Venerate? Does she not have a name?” Chu Mu looked at the half-human and half-pet creature and asked.
“Uh, how could a little one like me dare to call her by her name directly?” The Illusion Elder said.
“Just tell me a little bit about her.” Chu Mu looked out the window and said.
Previously, Chu Mu saw Madame Venerate controlling a Starlight Soul Pet.
Even if it wasn’t as powerful as the Blue Sky Demon Spirit Emperor, it
shouldn’t be tar Ott. A person who could nave such a powertul soul pet must have a prominent reputation in the entire Soul Pet Field.
Chu Mu guessed early on that his cold mother was a powerful Soul Pet Master, but he never imagined she would be this advanced.
Illusion Elder seemed to know some insider information about Madame Liu Binglan having a child and noticed that Chu Mu and Madame were quite distant from each other. He put on a knowing look and opened his mouth to speak, raising his comical raccoon-like head:
“Madame Liu Binglan is a rather low-key, peerless expert in the Soul Pet world. Not many people know about her, but the top-level leaders of large powers have some understanding of her. In the circle of the strong, she has always been called ‘Madame,’ with another nickname, ‘Cold Beauty.’ No one knows where she comes from, but it is said that she is a disciple of a hidden expert. She now holds the title of ‘Star Extreme’ in both Soul Hall and Soul Covenant, making her the nightmare of many evil-doers…”
Illusion Elder revealed a lot of information about Madame Liu Binglan in one breath, but the more Chu Mu listened, the more confused he became. The fields that Illusion Elder mentioned were obviously the upper echelons of large powers, which Chu Mu had not yet reached. As Illusion Elder cited examples to demonstrate how powerful she was, Chu Mu could only nod in seeming understanding, vaguely aware that his cold mother was formidable, belonging to the kind of “Star Extreme” that can make many people on the Soul Hall and Soul Covenant’s wanted lists terrified.
“You want to ask about your father and mother’s relationship, and why it’s not good, right? I’m not very clear about that, but one thing is certain – their coming together surprised countless people…” The Illusion Elder was obviously a talkative animal, even though he did not know the inside story, he still managed to mention some related matters.
Illusion Elder was about to gossip more with Chu Mu about the rumors, but as soon as he was about to open his mouth, his body was suddenly flung away. He stuck to the wooden wall like a sponge, and even when his body was pierced by a decoration hook on the wall, it didn’t seem to affect him at all.
“This thing knows three percent of the truth, four percent is from hearsay, and the remaining three percent is his own nonsense. There’s no need to listen more.” Honorable Lady Liu Binglan, not knowing when she had returned to the wooden house, held a large, dew-covered leaf in her hand, wrapping some fruits with a hint of cold air.
“Here, eat some, you must be hungry.” Honorable Lady Liu Binglan picked up a smaller fruit and placed it near Chu Mu’s mouth.
“I can do it myself.” Chu Mu still felt a bit weird; he remembered that even in the past, she wouldn’t feed him food like this. Why was she suddenly acting like a good mother now…
Madame Liu Binglan didn’t insist, and instead, sat by the bed, wanting to hear about Chu Mu’s experiences over the years.
Chu Mu only gave a brief summary, without going into details.
“I originally planned to take you to Soul Hall when you were eighteen and find a way to restore your lost Single Soul, but I didn’t expect you to be missing for so many years… You must have suffered a lot on those desolate islands.” Chu
Mu’s account was simple, but Honorable Lady Liu Binglan could guess that Chu Mu’s missing years must have been very difficult. As she listened, tears welled up in her eyes.
“I don’t want to go to Soul Hall.” Chu Mu detected Liu Binglan’s intention to take him to Soul Hall and immediately shook his head in refusal.
Chu Mu had a hard time escaping from Nightmare Demon Palace, and now he didn’t want to enter Soul Hall. Even with Liu Binglan’s protection, MO Ye’s continuous mutant soul pet incidents would still cause Chu Mu no small trouble. So Chu Mu didn’t want to join any organization right now; he just wanted to travel freely, constantly adventuring and improving his strength.
Liu Binglan naturally hopes that Chu Mu would stay by her side at the moment. She tried to persuade Chu Mu for a while, but seeing that he was very firm, she had no choice but to give up.
If she were tougher and more demanding, Chu Mu might just leave.
“Alright, since you don’t want to go to Soul Hall, I won’t force you. But your current health condition is not optimistic. I will take you to World City first.
You can recuperate there, and then I will go north to find Earth Immortal Ice.” Madame Liu Binglan said.
Liu Binglan really wanted to take Chu Mu with her, but she felt that the north was not safe, and Heavenly Earth Immortal Ice must be growing in extremely dangerous places. She didn’t want to put Chu Mu in danger by going with her.
Chu Mu continued to shake his head. Although the half-demon state left some aftereffects, these aftereffects did not affect him at all at the moment. As long as his strength increases, the residual effects would disappear automatically. Chu Mu didn’t want to be restrained in one place and expressed his intention to improve his strength alone to Liu Binglan.
“Your Highness, how about this? Since I, Illusion Elder, am also idle, I’ll follow Young Master Chu Mu and accompany him in his travels and practice. Your Highness can go find Heavenly Earth Immortal Ice with peace of mind, and we can meet in World City later.” Illusion Elder quickly grasped the opportunity and spoke.
Madame Liu Binglan glanced at Illusion Elder, clearly showing some distrust. However, she couldn’t think of another way, so she reluctantly nodded: “Then let Illusion Elder follow you. He has seen a lot and knows a lot, and can be of great help to your cultivation path. You can head to World City, and I will look for Heavenly Earth Immortal Ice and find you there. Also, the World Decree will be held in one or two years, and I think it’s necessary for you to watch it, which will be of great help for your future…”
Chu Mu also looked at the somewhat comical old man, thinking that having this old fellow by his side would be a burden. However, upon further thought, if he didn’t agree, Liu Binglan might take him to Soul Hall again. So he decided to nod his head for now and dismiss her thoughts first.
