Translator: 549690339
Chu Ning’s description left everyone present both shocked and suspicious. Chu Mu’s incident had already happened four years ago, and people had gradually forgotten about it. Yet who would have thought that one day this name would suddenly appear again, bringing such a shocking piece of news to everyone.
Perhaps because they knew Chu Mu too well, many people still expressed disbelief. To go from not being able to summon any Soul Pets in four years’ time to defeating Yang Jie was simply impossible.
“Then… where is he now?” asked the family head Chu Ming, his eyes filled with excitement.
“He accidentally fell off the Falling Phoenix Cliff while chasing Yang Jie and is now in the Broken Forest,” Chu Ning immediately responded.
“Falling Phoenix Cliff, can anyone survive falling from there?” Chu Tianjue, the sixth son of the family head, asked.
“No problem. he is still alive. but unable to come LID. He should be deep in the
Broken Forest now, heading east. I rushed back this time hoping that grandfather could dispatch some experts to the Broken Forest to find Chu Mu,” said Chu Ning.
“How could he fall into such a place, the Broken Forest is extremely dangerous, ordinary people can’t stay there for even a few days. Moreover, the forest is so vast that it would be nearly impossible to find someone without enough manpower…” Chu Tianjue said.
Family head Chu Ming frowned, his face solemn. After a moment, his gaze swept over everyone before finally lingering on Chu Tianjue and asked, “How many people can we deploy right now?”
“Father, we are in an extremely difficult situation right now. Where can we find the experts to enter the Broken Forest? Furthermore, even if we could find someone willing to enter the Broken Forest, their chances of survival would still be questionable. If we dispatch these experts and leave the Chu family vulnerable, it would only lead to bigger troubles,” Chu Tianjue said.
“Sixth brother, are you saying that Chu Mu doesn’t deserve our help? Even though he has experienced hardships and barely made it back after four years in the wild, we should still do everything we can to help him,” Chu Tianlin, Chu Ming’s second son, countered.
As Chu Ming’s second son, Chu Tianlin still carried some weight in the Chu family.
“Brother, do you think I just want to stand by and watch my nephew suffer?
The problem is that we currently don’t have anyone who can enter the Broken Forest, forcibly deploying people would only bring more danger to us,” Chu Tianjue argued.
Chu Nan, the white-bearded brother of the family head Chu Ming, looked at
Chu Ming and slowly said, “We should think long-term about this…”
Chu Nan was Chu Ming’s younger brother and controlled one-third of the Chu family’s power, serving as the vice family head.
“Sixth uncle, second grandfather, isn’t Chu Mu a descendant of our Chu family? How can you just stand by and watch him die?!” Chu Ning exclaimed, agitated.
“Audacious!” Sixth brother Chu Tianjue angrily stood up from his seat and glared fiercely at the disrespectful Chu Ning.
Chu Ning gritted his teeth, seemingly full of repressed anger. He didn’t fear Chu Tianjue’s authority and angrily said, “Back then, if it weren’t for you suggesting to replace my fourth brother’s family members, Chu Mu wouldn’t have been taken away. You led him to his death, and now that he has barely come back to life, you are still so heartless. Do you want to annihilate him completely?!”
Chu Ning was furious. Having been respectful to his elders for so long, he could no longer hold back his anger!
“Presumptuous! At a time when our escort convoy has lost half of its resources and you haven’t been punished, you should be reflecting on your mistakes instead of being so disrespectful and disregarding your elders!” Chu Tianjue was also furious, his eyes changing color!
“Sixth brother, my son doesn’t need you to discipline him!” Seeing Chu Tianjue trying to use his Soul Skill, second brother Chu Tianlin couldn’t remain silent. His eyes also began to change.
“Enough! This matter ends here, everyone leave!” Family head Chu Ming abruptly stood up and stopped Chu Tianlin and Chu Tianjue.
Chu Tianlin and Chu Tianjue did not dare to act recklessly in front of their father and withdrew their Soul Skills, but their gazes at each other were clearly filled with annoyance.
With the family head ordering everyone to leave, no one remained. All started to leave, whispering about Chu Mu’s situation as they departed.
“Was it necessary to exaggerate defeating Yang Jie just to get us to save that stupid kid? Hmph, even if I could save him, I wouldn’t. Everyone knows how dangerous the Broken Forest is, even I can’t guarantee my own safety wandering inside it. How many people in the Chu family would dare to go?” Chu Tianjue scowled at Chu Tianlin as they left the family hall.
“Coward, shrinking back, incapable of accomplishing great things. I don’t know why father let you be in charge of the men. You won’t send people? Fine, I’ll go
myself!” Chu Tianlin glared back at Chu Tianjue.
Only the family head Chu Ming and the eldest son Chu Tianheng remained in the hall. Neither of them spoke until everyone else had left. Then, eldest son Chu Tianheng slowly spoke up:
“Father, let me send my men. Tiancheng has already suffered so much humiliation, including this trip to the Great Chu Noble Family. He’ll surely be ridiculed by those who were once defeated by him and bear great humiliation. After all, he has already sworn never to set foot in the Great Chu Noble Family again… ”
“Tiancheng has already been through so much. Now that Chu Mu is back, we must bring him home safely, no matter what.”
Chu Ming frowned and slowly nodded, then said, “Take my family head token and move the Chu Family Guards out of the city.”
“The Chu Family Guards?” Elder Chu Tianheng was taken aback, looking at the slightly aged Chu Ming and hesitating for a moment before saying, “Do you really want to send them there, but… ”
Family head Chu Ming waved his hand and said, “The rise and fall of the family began a long time ago. If it weren’t for Heaven’s Favor, our Chu family would have already collapsed and would not have persisted until now.”
“Alas, although I don’t know what kind of crimes he committed in the outside world, the burden he bears must be much heavier than our small family head.
He just wants to live a peaceful life now, and Chu Mu is his only hope…”
Chu Tianheng nodded, took the family head token, and left the Chu Family Hall.
After Chu Tianheng left, Family Head Chu Ming sat alone in the main seat, his slightly muddy eyes somewhat dull as if he was trying to recall the past.
After a long time, Family Head Chu Ming’s eyes gradually focused, and he slowly said, “Chu Ning, even if Mu’er is still unable to summon a single soul pet like before, I would treat him like my own grandson. Why did you have to say such words…”
Broken Forest
“WII!”
MO Ye was really angry. Its claws fiercely scratched MO Ye’s body, instantly tearing its armor to shreds, and the fresh blood inside sprayed wildly!
MO Ye did not use the Evil Flame Claw, but as a Six-tailed Demon Fox at the
Sixth Rank Third Stage, its ordinary attacks were not something that a Third Rank Fifth Stage MO Ye could withstand. MO Ye’s body was as if it had been cut open, showing a very deep mark.
However, MO Ye didn’t let out a scream of pain and still stared at Little MO Xie with unyielding eyes after falling heavily to the ground.
“Don’t kill it…” Chu Mu warned Little MO Xie.
Little MO Xie was resentful and could only show a sneer at the
It was normal for Little MO Xie to be angry because this was already the sixth time Little MO Ye challenged her. Every time, MO Ye would be beaten black and blue, and even on the verge of death, but not long after, Little MO Ye would immediately chase her, full of vitality, and continue fighting.
To Chu Mu’s amusement, Little MO Ye had grown two ranks to reach the third rank, fifth stage in the process of repeatedly challenging MO Ye, who was of higher rank than herself. He never thought that a soul pet could actually grow in such a way through continuous setbacks and abuse.
Curious how Little MO Ye managed to achieve this, Chu Mu decided to capture it using his Soul Capture Ring to observe its changes.
Chu Mu’s Soul Capture Ring was specially purchased – a fifth-level Soul Capture Ring, costing 10,000 gold coins, able to hold two soul pets below the fifth level of the commander level, a standard Soul pet ring.
Better soul pet rings can hold higher level and stage soul pets, but their prices
are also skyrocketing.
Little MO Ye has no resistance to Chu Mu’s Soul Capture, and it is quickly trapped in the Soul Capture Ring. This time, Chu Mu wanted to verify whether Little MO Ye had actually found special healing medicinal herbs every day to recover quickly, or if Little MO Ye inherently had a very strong self-healing ability and combat recovery ability.
After feeding Little MO Ye some insect species and beast dual-attribute Soul Cores, Chu Mu didn’t pay any more attention to the little guy and continued walking eastward.
On the road, Chu Mu also encountered some stronger MO Ye with better metamorphic growth states, but in Chu Mu’s eyes, these MO Ye had average qualifications, or even inferior ones, and their ranks had reached the fifth rank or higher. The cost of using soul cores to train them to enhance their attributes was too high, so none of them were satisfactory.
“Have we entered the MO Ye habitat? There seem to be more and more MO Ye here.” Qin Meng’er said.
“Possibly. There should be a MO Ye King in Ink Forest, which is too strong for us to handle,” Chu Mu said.
MO Ye is an intermediate commander-level soul pet. If it reaches the sixth rank, it will pose a significant threat to Chu Mu. Chu Mu also believes that there are bound to be seventh-rank Mo Ye here, and as for even older MO Ye, they could reach the eighth or even terrifyingly strong ninth rank. Chu Mu doesn’t want to provoke them.
