Supreme Tamer

Chapter 877: Chapter 744: Half-demon Bai Yu, the Sleeping Xiong!

Liu Binglan was stunned by Chu Mu’s serious question!

Liu Binglan was not a fool, she instantly connected several matters together and deduced a result that she dared not even think about!!

“Quick…answer me!” Chu Mu saw that Liu Binglan had become like an ice statue, and he urged anxiously.

“It’s impossible, even though the Half-Demon Bai Yu was sealed as a half-demon, he’s likely still a half-demon till now. But there’s absolutely no way his seal could be broken. Even if the entire Immortal City were to fall, the seal would remain intact. It’s simply impossible!” Liu Binglan was shaking her head fervently, she did not want to accept this fact!!

Seeing Liu Binglan, who always maintained her composure, like this, Chu Mu’s heart sank.

As expected, Chu Mu’s half-demon predecessor – Bai Yu, was sealed within the Immortal City!!!

...

Chu Mu had heard a lot about Demon Emperor Bai Yu from Master Li. He was indeed a demon among demons, a devil that even the powerful elders found hard to control during the prosperous times!!

Master Li had told Chu Mu about the general events concerning Half-Demon Bai Yu. As a realm city, World City was supposed to be the seat of numerous experts, with high-level emperors, peak-level emperors, and their like. However, it had lost its former glory!

And now, World City had decayed to the point where only a few major power’s elder-level strong ones remained. The elder-level Peak Emperors seldom appeared, and all this was caused by the Half-Demon upheaval!!!

At that time, Half-Demon Bai Yu had killed many Supreme Power experts, causing significant damage to the three major powers’ foothold in World City, which led them to be secondary and unable to compete with Soul Covenant, one of the primary reasons for this fallout!

The magnitude of Half-Demon Bai Yu’s strength, enough to bring an entire city of peak-level warriors to decay and causing severe damage to the robust three major powers spread across the human domain, was not something that needed further elaboration!!

If the real goal of the defecting girl was to release Half-Demon Bai Yu, then World City, already in decay, was not far from total destruction!!

This was also why Liu Binglan did not dare to continue her line of thought and why she vehemently denied it all. Because if this was the truth, it would be a nightmare come true!!

“We’ll know if we go to the Mysterious Tracks Prison now,” Chu Mu said, looking at Liu Binglan, who was somewhat out of sorts.

Hopefully… hopefully, it was just him overthinking, Chu Mu sighed.

Without any hesitation, Liu Binglan uttered a spell to summon Star River, flying towards the Mysterious Tracks Prison, located beneath the Soul Pet Palace.

Given Liu Binglan’s status, she didn’t need to abide by any rules. She directly asked Huang Yinglian, the one managing the female prisoners.

“She has been in her prison cell all along,” Huang Yinglian asserted that it would be impossible for Princess Jinrou to escape from her cell.

Of course, Liu Binglan would only totally relax once she saw Princess Jinrou. Without further ado, she asked Huang Yinglian to lead the way to Princess Jinrou’s lakeside house.

…

“How… how could she…possible have disappeared!” Huang Yinglian turned pale instantly.

They searched everywhere and asked other female prisoners, yet no one knew Princess Jinrou’s whereabouts!

Moreover, the previous female Soul Emperor said that it had been some time since she had last seen her.

“Keep searching!” Liu Binglan’s face was ashen; she had already exhausted a lot of Soul Power to save Chu Mu. Now a massive crisis was looming, making her look desolate.

Seeing Liu Binglan like this, Chu Mu’s heart was also boiling with turmoil, but he managed to stay calm.

He shook his head at Liu Binglan, implying that there was no need to continue searching.

Liu Binglan was reluctant to give up and insisted on continuing the search for Princess Jinrou.

Chu Mu held Liu Binglan’s trembling hand and said softly, “She has already escaped. The plan of Zhang Siyuan breaking prison and running away was hers. Zhang Siyuan did not run away but hid somewhere in the Mysterious Tracks Prison. Then, they let someone who looked like him roam outside, making the prison guards believe that Zhang Siyuan had escaped. By doing so, it paved the way for her real prison break.”

Liu Binglan was indeed in a panick. For so many years, she had never been so flustered. It was only when Chu Mu calmly held her hand that she realized a real conspiracy was hiding behind the great turmoil in the Immortal City, gradually approaching World City!!

“Also, there’s a high chance she was put in prison on purpose. Because doing that would allow Bai Jinrou to rightfully bring her soul pet into the Immortal City, laying the groundwork for today, a year after.” Chu Mu spoke slowly.

Princess Jinrou’s prison escape immediately reminded Chu Mu of a white figure he spotted in Immortal City!

At that moment, a realization dawned on Chu Mu about the somewhat familiar white figure he saw on the first day when the riot broke out in the Immortal City!

It wasn’t an illusion Chu Mu was having, but Princess Jinrou’s soul pet, which was sealed in Immortal City because of her year-long imprisonment. That fleeting white figure was indeed Princess Jinrou’s Ice Crystal Curse Marked Fox Demon!!

Chu Mu had heard from Master Li that the Ice Crystal Curse Marked Fox Demon was a higher level evolution of the Silver Moon Fox. Mo Ye was initially a Silver Moon Fox that later mutated into a Moonlight Fox and inherited the “Seal Breaking” racial skill of the Silver Moon Fox.

The high species of the Ice Crystal Curse Marked Fox Demon, through special cultivation, its seal-breaking ability is undoubtedly one of the strongest creatures in this world, and their ability to break the seal has no direct relation to their strength!

Initially, Chu Mu thought that Princess Jinrou, being female, would prefer the Demon Fox Clan’s soul pets. Therefore, he didn’t pay much attention to the other ability of the Ice Crystal Curse Marked Fox Demon – breaking seals. Most importantly, the secondary attribute displayed by Princess Jinrou’s Ice Crystal Curse Marked Fox Demon was primarily Ice Element, leading Chu Mu to believe that its seal-breaking ability was not strong.

But if Princess Jinrou’s Ice Crystal Curse Marked Fox Demon always had been hiding its powerful seal-breaking ability, and if Princess Jinrou chose the Ice Crystal Curse Marked Fox Demon just for today…

Then, it’s highly likely that this princess, ever since she was a girl, has been trying to find ways to free her father, Demon Emperor Bai Yu!!

Considering Chu Mu’s first sighting of that familiar white figure similar to Ice Crystal Curse Marked Fox Demon in Immortal City, Princess Jinrou’s initial refusal of honors in The World Decree, and the princess’s secretive intent to enter Immortal City…

Raising the Ice Crystal Curse Marked Fox Demon, participating in The World Decree, scouting the ninth realm of Immortal City, getting imprisoned to easily sneak the Ice Crystal Curse Marked Fox Demon into the city and then waiting for the unrest in Immortal City to arrive…

There are no such things as too many coincidences in this world. All of these events were enough to prove what Bai Jinrou planned to do!

“I heard from Master Li that Immortal City and World City were created in the same era, at which time Soul Hall and Nightmare Demon Palace were probably not split yet…”

“This means that inside Immortal City, in addition to the seven Demon Suppression Tablets corresponding to the Seven Holy Pets of Soul Hall, there is an eighth Demon Suppression Tablet, this eighth tablet…”

Chu Mu’s inference ability was bold and shocking. As he said these words, his gaze fell on Liu Binglan’s pale cheeks devoid of color.

Liu Binglan’s lips were nearly bitten through, and she also looked at Chu Mu. In the end, she nodded very hard and said with a somewhat trembling voice: “Immortal City… indeed has an eighth Demon Suppression Tablet, the Nightmare Demon Suppression Monument!”

“And, your guess… is not wrong. There is a creature sleeping in the eighth Demon Suppression Tablet, it’s not an Ancient Sacred Pet, but…”

“Demon Emperor Bai Yu!!” Chu Mu almost spoke at the same time as the hesitant Liu Binglan.

As they uttered this name, both Chu Mu and Liu Binglan felt as if a colossal iceberg was pressing down on them, making them truly realize how shocking and abominable this conspiracy is!!

…

After arriving at this conclusion that even Liu Binglan could barely believe, Liu Binglan immediately rode on Star River and went straight to the Netherworld Gate!!

This was truly a plot of utter destruction!! So massive it left one breathless!!!

…

On their hasty journey to the Netherworld Gate, Liu Binglan told Chu Mu of the bloody storm that had once diminished the ranks of the peak powers in World City!

“Back then, countless supreme powers of World City were killed. Demon Emperor Bai Yu was unstoppable. Even if all the powerful warriors of World City joined forces, they were not a match for this strongest half-demon…”

“We, the Soul Hall, have four venerates, Tu Zun, Chen Zun, Zhou Zun, and Nether Venerate. My mother’s teacher, the previous generation Chen Zun, and the top-strength Zhou Zun, these two of the strongest humans have fallen during this half-demon storm!”

The Soul Hall has four venerates who are all respected guardians even by the Nightmare Demon Palace!

But who within the palace all clearly knew, the four venerates from the last generation have nearly all retired, and both Chen Zun and Zhou Zun have lost their lives!

Tu Zun is the new successor, Liu Binglan of Chen Zun is also the new successor, otherwise, Liu Binglan would not possess the venerable position at such a young age.

The one who was hit hardest was Zhou Zun! Before Zhou Zun’s death, he hadn’t found a suitable disciple for inheritance, which means the venerable positions that have lasted for thousands of years, in this era, have completely disappeared in the history of Soul Hall!

The past four venerates in the future will only have three, and no matter how many years pass, it will remain only three.

Master Li had casually mentioned to Chu Mu about the venerate position of the Soul Hall before, saying that Zhou Zun has remained vacant to this day. After hearing Liu Binglan, he finally understood the real reason behind this vacant venerate! The fall of two out of the four venerates and the two remaining direct retirees can only suggest how brutal the bloody storm was!!

And all of this originated from Demon Emperor Bai Yu!!!

#Listening to this caused layers of emotional turbulence in Chu Mu, rising higher and higher!!

“Then… who defeated him in the end??” Chu Mu hurriedly asked.

Liu Binglan shook her head expressionlessly and said, “No one defeated him. Even if the four venerates fell, no one could withstand Demon Emperor Bai Yu…”

“Then how was he sealed in the end?” Chu Mu pursued.
