Chapter 258: Chapter 137: Battle with the Chu Family Expert in Cooperation with Ye Qingzi
Translator: 549690339
The night fog swirled, a solitary mountain peak eerily looming in the mysterious night.
A haunting howl came from the beneath the mountain’s depths, sending chills down the spine.
The bitter winds howled furiously, hitting Chu Mu’s face, tousling his hair…
Chu Mu sat on the edge of a cliff, legs hanging down, gazing into the distant east. On Chu Mu’s lap, Little MO Xie with her silver-fluff dancing in the wind lay quietly, occasionally lifting her head to look at the silent Chu Mu, then lowering her head and emitting a low “woo woo” murmur.
“Seal Soul Pet, self-destruction!”
Like a howling wind, these words constantly swirled around Chu Mu’s ears. This sense of desolation and shock kept Chu Mu’s heart unsettled for a long time.
Sealed soul pets, in a state of summoning, wholly occupied the soul of the Soul Pet Masters. If sealed within a prison unable to return to its master’s soul space, only death could completely release the Soul Master’s soul.
Chu Mu couldn’t comprehend just how deep the bond was between Chu Tianmang and his main pet, but upon learning that all three main pets had self-destructed within the Sealing Tower, Chu Mu felt an endless wave of sorrow rush into the depths of his soul, causing his body to tremble uncontrollably.
“Young Master, try not to be overly saddened. This might be a new beginning for your father. He has exceptional soul control abilities, and his understanding of all types of Soul Pets and even different races of soul pets are unique. Now, with the shackles of his soul released due to his soul pets’ sacrifice, it won’t be long before he will again trample all the Soul Covenant Masters like before, making those people in Soul Covenant pay the price they should!” Master Li stood behind Chu Mu, speaking to him.
Chu Mu nodded, his palm gently stroking Little MO Xie’s smooth fur, but didn’t say anything else.
“Power, strength, prestige, wealth – Chu Tianmang possessed only strength. His carefree nature detested restrictions. People with supreme power do not tolerate such people flitting before their eyes, especially when there are conflicts of interests… If you truly want to become a superior person, you should follow Her Highness the Venerate to the Soul Hall…”
Upon entering Demon Island, Chu Mu had deeply realized the importance of strength. Master Li’s words were clearly telling Chu Mu that strength was not everything.
But Chu Mu thought differently. According to Chu Mu’s estimate, when Chu Tianmang’s Soul Pets were sealed, they also weren’t very old. Presumably, none of Chu Tianmang’s soul pets had yet truly reached that unsurpassable level when they were sealed by people in the Soul Covenant…
The pursuit of power was not what Chu Mu wanted. With his belief in the supremacy of strength, Chu Mu would not waiver in his determination to pursue power!
Seeing his persuasion unsuccessful, Master Li sighed and said, “Young Master, not to hide it from you, my previous master was a very powerful Soul Pet Master who even reached an unbeatable level. But, not everything can be solved with strength…”
A gust of wind swept in, pouring into Master Li’s raccoon mouth, causing him to start coughing immediately…
While coughing, Master Li realized that saying these things seemed meaningless. What Chu Mu needed most now was strength, or else he couldn’t even stand his ground in this world. He then put an end to his words…
“Young Master, Elder Tu only has some not-so-capable apprentices. If you want to participate in the Great Chu Noble Family’s competition, you could register under Elder Tu’s name.” Master Li again brought up the topic at hand.
“Yeah, get him to reserve the other slot for me too.” Chu Mu said.
“Young Master, do you want the Ye Family siblings to join you?” Master Li asked.
Chu Mu nodded. Although the Ye Family siblings hadn’t yet shown their true strength, Chu Mu was certain that the strength of these two was indeed very strong. If they worked with him, winning the top 3 should not be a problem.
The Great Chu noble family was so snobbish that it always aroused some disgust in Chu Mu. Chu Mu didn’t mind emulating Chu Tianmang, once again trampling upon their young experts, and then leave casualy!
“Not doing it, absolutely not. You’re in a bad mood and want to beat someone up, why do you have to target us siblings? We’re wandering around with nothing and nobody, and this Great Chu family has quite some influence. If we are not careful and come across some Soul Lord or Soul Emperor, won’t that cost us our lives? We came here just wanting to visit the Ten Thousand Broken Stinger Valley. The insect species soul pets in the Ten Thousand Broken Stinger Valley are very cute, and if you annoy the young ones, they at least won’t bring out the old ones…” The moment Ye Wansheng heard that Chu Mu wanted to challenge the Great Chu noble family’s experts, he immediately shook his head like a rattle-drum.
“The top three liabilites of the competition offer spirit items worth over 5 million gold coins. In addition, Elder Tu, who will record our names, will gift us an additional 5 million gold coins, which means that if we get the top three, each of us gets 5 million gold coins.” Chu Mu directly advanced this condition.
“If you had said this earlier, we could have agreed. There’s an old man to protect us, right? Deal, deal, but it’s settled in advance, if the opponent is too strong, we decisively waive the right…” Ye Wansheng immediately replied.
“I’ll go with you.” Ye Qingzi glanced at Chu Mu and said softly.
“Alright.” Chu Mu nodded his head, a slight smile appearing on his face.
“…” Ye Wansheng originally wanted to continue negotiating the conditions with
Chu Mu, but his younger sister agreed so simply, directly leaving him aside,
“Women can’t be retained when they grow up. She’s already thinking of running off with someone else so fast.” Ye Wansheng sighed.
Ye Qingzi ignored Ye Wansheng’s nonsense. Seeing Chu Mu’s mood today, she roughly guessed that there must be some issues between Chu Mu and the Great Chu Noble Family. Since fighting is a form of training, Ye Qingzi didn’t mind cooperating with Chu Mu to challenge the experts of the Great Chu Noble Family.
Ye Qingzi was a bona fide Support Soul Pet Master, which was precisely what Chu Mu needed for a combat partner.
“Let’s agree in advance, if the opponent is too strong, we abandon the fight. My main pet isn’t convenient to summon.” Ye Qingzi proposed.
“Yeah, I’ll know when to draw the line.” said Chu Mu. A spar was not a fight to the death, and encountering a stronger opponent was very normal. Of course, Chu Mu wouldn’t be so stubborn as to let his soul pets fight when they clearly couldn’t win.
“Fine, fine, leave me out, go have your fun. I will go to the Ten Thousand Broken Stinger Valley by myself.” Seeing that he was being completely ignored by the duo, Ye Wansheng spoke out in frustration…
“Then let’s discuss our soul pet lineup.” Chu Mu suggested. Since they were collaborating, there shouldn’t be too many secrets between them, as not knowing the strength of your partner would certainly lead to various flaws in the battle.
“Hmm, you go first. I will summon corresponding soul pets according to yours.” Ye Qingzi nodded in agreement.
The two of them then started to exchange information about their soul pets, trying to figure out the most reasonable battle plan. Meanwhile, someone standing beside them, who had claimed that he would go to the Ten Thousand Broken Stinger Valley on his own and had been completely ignored, was now showing an increasingly ferocious expression, wishing to strangle these two individuals who had completely overlooked him…
The competition was a double combination battle, triple control, without a soul pet change. Chu Mu’s three soul pet lineup was: MO Ye, Ning, Zhan Ye.
Based on Chu Mu’s three soul pets, Ye Qingzi summoned her soul pets: Purple Robe Dream Beast, Water Moon, and Ice and Fire Monster.
Chu Mu had seen Ye Qingzi’s Purple Robe Dream Beast. In daylight, its combat power was even stronger than Chu Mu’s night. The eight-stage Water Moon had exceptional healing and support abilities. It could bring a severely wounded and dying soul pet back to life. With the existence of Water Moon, Chu Mu’s Zhan Ye, even if its stage was lower, was virtually in an undying
state.
Ice and Fire Fairy: Elemental World – Ice Element (Fire Element) – Elemental Demon Clan – Ice and Fire Fairy – Commander Level
Ye Qingzi’s Ice and Fire Fairy were at the 7th rank, Chu Mu guessed correctly, this should be one of Ye Qingzi’s main pets. It not only possesses a very powerful ice and fire support ability, but also a terrifying dual elemental ability.
Ye Qingzi’s three soul pets, regardless of level and stage, were a notch above Chu Mu’s soul pets. Chu Mu’s guess was correct. The Ye siblings were very strong, with few rivals among the younger generation.
“Chu Mu, are you really going to participate in this competition? There are many masters in the Great Chu family. If you participate, you must be very careful.” Chu Qian became somewhat worried upon learning that Chu Mu was going to participate in the competition of the Great Chu Noble Family.
Chu Qian knew that Chu Mu was somewhat capable, but after all, Chu Mu was still too young. With so many masters in the Great Chu noble family, if he encounters a strong person like Chu Yue and summons all three soul pets, Chu Mu will definitely not be his opponent, which would inflict a great blow to Chu Mu’s confidence.
“Chu Mu, don’t get cocky just because you were able to defeat one of Chu Yue’s soul pets. You won’t even know how you lose in the end, so I advise you to stay low-key.” Chu Qian switched back to her usual attitude.
Both Chu Qian and Chu Qian could participate in the competition, but they could definitely only earn a minor ranking. They were slightly stronger than ordinary members of their clan. But if placed before a true expert, they would be defeated quickly, so they simply chose not to participate. However, they didn’t expect that, after being praised by Chu Yue a few times, they actually decided to participate in the family competition.
Chu Mu didn’t explain too much. Even if he did, believing him or not was another matter altogether. Even if they did believe him, there would be a series of questions. Everything would become clear after the battle.
“Haha, that kid really participated, whose name did he use?” Upon receiving the news, Chu Yue broke into a big laugh.
“I don’t know whose name he used, it does not seem to be written. He and someone named Ye Qingzi are participating.” Chu Jia said.
“Ye Qingzi, who is Ye Qingzi?” Chu Yue asked puzzledly.
“She is the sister among the pair of siblings that Chu Mu brought. Speaking of Ye Qingzi, she is as charming as her name suggests, extremely beautiful, even more so than Chu Qian. If you see her, you will definitely be smitten.” Speaking of Ye Qingzi, Chu Jia’s mouth was almost watering.
A beauty like Ye Qingzi was absolutely a rarity, especially her pair of long and full legs, which were very alluring. Chu Jia still couldn’t forget them until now.
