Supreme Tamer

Chapter 819: Chapter 686

Chu Mu gasped, a soul pet displaying the strength of a quasi-Emperor, but whose rank is only around sixth or seventh!

Wouldn’t that make its species ranking a High Emperor!!

Chu Mu has rarely come across creatures with species rankings reaching the High Emperor level!

“Her Highness the Venerate is also one of the Sixteen Absolutes of the Soul Alliance. The strength of the Sixteen Absolutes is roughly equal to that of the Elders, and some of them are even a bit stronger. Although Her Highness the Venerate is not the strongest in Soul Hall, she is one of the top.” Fox Elder said.

Chu Mu knew that if she could rank among the top in Soul Hall, she would likely have a super-intimidating Peak Emperor-level soul pet. Chu Mu was still some distance from reaching the peak of the Emperor level.

…

Following Xiang Yunyun’s words, Chu Mu stayed at the Great Chu Noble Family the whole time. Inside the Great Chu Noble Family, Teacher De was a powerful person with a High Emperor-level soul pet. Except for him, the major powers also had people like Teacher De who could hold the crowd. Therefore, even if that creature was a High Emperor, it would not dare to barge into the Great Chu Noble Family.

The next day, to be on the safe side, Chu Mu still didn’t leave the Great Chu Noble Family. Instead, Chu Mu meditated overnight, replenished his soul power, and began to strengthen the Wind-binding Spirit to Emperor level.

It had been about four months since the Wind-binding Spirit reached the Peak Monarch level. Although it usually takes six months to progress from the Peak Monarch level to the quasi-Emperor level, Chu Mu felt that four months should be sufficient.

As such, these days Chu Mu didn’t go anywhere and stayed within the Great Chu Noble Family, preparing to strengthen the Wind-binding Spirit.

…

At noon, the gorgeous sun was high in the sky, and thick heat surged from the mountains all around.

In the back mountains of the Great Chu Noble Family, a stunning starlight streaked by, heading towards the depths of the complex terrain of Hou Chu Mountain.

This Starlight Soul Pet was always enveloped in divine light, so one could only see a noble silhouette and a general appearance, without being able to see its true face. It carried an air of mystery.

Flying side by side with the starlight was a Star Phoenix Butterfly Tail Bird. The wings of this Star Phoenix Butterfly Tail Bird were almost transparent, and its figure was elegant and graceful, as if dancing in the sky.

The Star Phoenix Butterfly Tail Bird had clearly been strengthened to a very high level, so its flying speed was extremely fast.

“Sister Lan, it should be around this location. A few days ago, at midnight, I saw it in the secluded forest of the Great Chu Noble Family. It had a pair of glowing red eyes and a very heavy bloodlust. I don’t know the reason, but it was targeting me and another man,” said the woman controlling the Star Phoenix Butterfly Tail Bird.

Controlling the Starlight Soul Pet and referred to as Sister Lan was none other than Liu Binglan herself. She glanced at Xiang Yunyun next to her.

Xiang Yunyun immediately realized that her words had revealed that she had gone to meet a man in the forest late at night. Her face flushed, and she quickly explained, “Sister Lan, it’s not what you think. I just thought it was fun…”

“You’re so grown-up, and you still don’t know how to restrain yourself,” Liu Binglan scolded softly.

“Who can be as naturally beautiful as you, Sister? Of course, one has to indulge a little,” Xiang Yunyun replied charmingly.

As they spoke, the two women had already flown on their soul pets to the place where the mysterious Emperor had landed that night.

“So many traces?” Xiang Yunyun quickly noticed the ten or so tear marks on a nearby rock.

“Lin, see what kind of creature left these traces,” Liu Binglan said, finishing her incantation and summoning a soul pet that was also bathed in intense divine light.

The Soul Pet was small and exquisite, resembling a little girl with long hair and a lower leg part. Bright light emanated from her entire body, making her appear even more dazzling and sacred than the Star River.

Xiang Yunyun gazed at the luminous soul pet that could float freely in the air, whispering, “Is this one of the Seven Diagram Sacred Beasts – the Light-type Soul Pet, Dawn Palm Princess?”

Liu Binglan just nodded, and let her Dawn Palm Princess begin collecting traces left by the monster around them.

The Dawn Palm Princess flew around the area, and soon, she had the answer. She floated back to Liu Binglan’s side and whispered a crisp sound in her ear.

“It’s a Sky Demon Worm,” Liu Binglan frowned, lost in thought.

“A Sky Demon Worm? A High Emperor-level Sky Demon Worm? Shouldn’t this creature be accompanied by a huge army presence, so how could it possibly make its way here alone? Moreover, the eyes of the Sky Demon Worm don’t seem to have that color,” Xiang Yunyun said.

Liu Binglan shook her head, indicating that she didn’t understand why a high-level Emperor-class Sky Demon Worm would infiltrate the human world alone.

A High Emperor-level Sky Demon Worm already possessed a high level of intelligence. It should know that if it entered the human world, it might be besieged and attacked by powerful humans at any time. At that moment, even a High Emperor would fall.

Liu Binglan pondered for a long time but still couldn’t come up with an answer. She turned around, wanting to hear Xiang Yunyun’s opinion.

“What’s wrong?” Liu Binglan noticed Xiang Yunyun staring blankly at something and asked.

Xiang Yunyun suddenly came back to her senses. She looked at a small, inconspicuous bug corpse with surprise and pointed, saying, “This… this seems to be… ”

Liu Binglan had already looked at the bug’s corpse earlier but hadn’t noticed anything unusual. She didn’t know why Xiang Yunyun looked so shocked.

“Sister Lan, this is… this seems to be a Mind-controlling Demon Gu, a special kind of Soul Pet that can control wild creatures!” said Xiang Yunyun.

After being reminded by Xiang Yunyun, Liu Binglan also paused.

Mind-controlling Demon Gu is a special skill of an extremely powerful insect-type creature. It can split something similar to brain worms from its own body and drill into the brain of a wild Soul Pet, controlling it for a certain period.

Mind-controlling Demon Gu is a rare insect-type Soul Pet, as the wild Soul Pets it can control are often much lower in level than the Mind-controlling Demon Gu itself. Moreover, it cannot control a large number of them simultaneously, so this Mind-controlling Demon Gu is hardly ever raised as a Soul Pet.

“Even high-level Emperor Soul Pets were being controlled like pawns. How strong would the Mind-controlling Demon Gu itself have to be! If it’s the work of a Soul Pet Master…” Xiang Yunyun found this unbelievable!

Liu Binglan also shuddered in her heart. Demon Gu can only control Soul Pets of much lower levels. If it was controlling a Monarch or quasi-Emperor, Liu Binglan wouldn’t have found it surprising. But it controlled a high-level Emperor!

Obviously, this high-level Emperor Sky Demon Worm came from Ten Thousand Broken Stinger Valley, and high-level Emperor Sky Demon Worms in the valley were usually found in tribes above the seventh level. Having the strength to infiltrate a seventh-level tribe and control a high-level Emperor Sky Demon Worm is extremely shocking!

Liu Binglan’s expression became more serious. She glanced at Xiang Yunyun and asked, “Was the high-level Emperor targeting you?”

“It doesn’t seem to be entirely the case. It’s more likely targeting the man who was with me, but I feel like he doesn’t know what’s going on either,” said Xiang Yunyun.

“This is no small matter. Take me to him and I’ll ask,” Liu Binglan said.

“Alright,” Xiang Yunyun nodded. She realized that this could be a terrifying event, especially since even high-level Emperors were easily manipulated!

…

Xiang Yunyun had told Chu Mu not to leave the Great Chu Noble Family before the situation is cleared up.

Xiang Yunyun felt that the high-level Emperor’s hostility was directed at her. And controlling wild Soul Pets, with their viciousness, could potentially cause great destruction to the human world, which would threaten people and must be dealt with.

“Is he here?” Liu Binglan walked outside the courtyard and faintly sensed a familiar aura from the man inside the room.

Not many people knew about the existence of Liu Binglan, and she didn’t know many people either, especially young men. So when she came to the courtyard, Liu Binglan found it strange.

Xiang Yunyun didn’t notice Liu Binglan’s hesitation and walked into Chu Mu’s courtyard by herself. She unceremoniously opened Chu Mu’s door and said with a smile, “Chu Chen, my sister brought a fairy-like older sister who will make you lose your mind.”

Liu Binglan didn’t like the way Xiang Yunyun was acting and maintained her cold demeanor as she slowly stepped into the room. @@novelbin@@

Xiang Yunyun was still smiling. She was thinking that Chu Mu, a serious man, would probably be shocked and mesmerized for a long time upon seeing Liu Binglan.

Xiang Yunyun knew that Liu Binglan rarely met outsiders, and those who encountered her could hardly speak normally.

Xiang Yunyun found it amusing to think that Chu Mu, who had a straight, upright, and cold face, would stammer, blush, and look like a little boy in front of the famously “Cold Beauty” Liu Binglan. She was secretly happy that after Liu Binglan left, she would tease him, and it would be fun.

As soon as Liu Binglan, who was born as cold and remote as an iceberg, entered the room, she saw the man Xiang Yunyun had spoken of. However, when she saw the man’s face clearly, the icy demeanour of Liu Binglan began to melt…

The expression on Liu Binglan’s face was somewhat complicated. On one hand, she was surprised and excited to see Chu Mu; on the other hand, she was astonished that the man meeting secretly with Xiang Yunyun was Chu Mu.

Xiang Yunyun still didn’t know the mother-son relationship between Chu Mu and Liu Binglan. She was secretly snickering in her heart and deliberately observing Chu Mu’s expression intently.

Chu Mu was not one to joke or laugh easily, and even at a grand banquet, few people saw him smile. Xiang Yunyun had a strange mind and felt that seeing Chu Mu, a calm and steady man, act flustered would be amusing. That was why she played the mental suggestion trick, but it failed, leaving her feeling embarrassed.

Now, she could finally turn the calm and composed man into a panicked little boy. She felt secretly delighted, thinking that it would be fun to tease him after Liu Binglan left.
