“Judging by your anxious expressions, do both of you have urgent matters to attend to in Elental City?” The youth Imown as Hua Cheng approached and asked.
Chu Mu gave them a quick glance and said indifferently, “I’m trying to find the whereabouts of a couple of friends. I think they may have already passed through here.”
“What are your friends’ nas? Perhaps we can help you find them,” another youth said.
Chu Mu looked at Ye Qingzi. Naturally, she didn’t know the nas of the two people and said after so thought, “Because of their unique statuses, they only told us pseudonyms, which may not be the nas they use in the
Elental Gate. I only know that they are from the Elental City in Li City.”
“Oh? From Li City?” Hua Cheng raised his eyebrows, showing an elent of surprise.
The Elental City of Li Domain in Li City is a relatively large Elental Gate power. Those who can enter it either have strong strength or a certain background. It can’t be compared with the small Elental City in Langhe City.
“If they are from Li City, it should be easy to inquire about them. However, the affairs of the Elental Gate are generally cumberso, and it’s not easy to figure them out. How about this, seeing that both of you have co from afar, I’ll have my house servants take you to a nearby pavilion for a short rest. We will finish the important matters we have in hand and then help you inquire. What do you say?” The polite young man offered.
Ye Qingzi looked at Chu Mu as if seeking his opinion.
“Alright, thank you both,” Chu Mu nodded.
“Ha, don’t ntion it. Far away ans being a guest, both of us enjoy making friends from different places, learning more about various things through conversation. No need to be polite,” Hua Cheng said with a smile, also showing a warm and friendly expression, seemingly a young master who enjoys helping others.
Ye Qingzi wanted to say sothing, but she couldn’t think of another way at the mont. She could only follow their suggestion.
Soon, two house servants approached Chu Mu and Ye Qingzi, respectfully inviting them to the nearby attic…
“Do you trust them?” Walking on the road, Ye Qingzi imdiately questioned Chu Mu using her Soul Sense.
“I trust people who like to make friends, but not them, ” Chu Mu said.
“Yes, they feel sowhat fake to ,” Ye Qingzi was not the näIVe young girl coming out of a thatched cottage. She could see through many things and make the most accurate analysis.
Moreover, Ye Qingzi had followed her brother wandering around, eting various people along the years. The two young n acted well and covered their tracks skillfully, but Ye Qingzi could still sense a degree of pretense.
“Ladies and gentlen, this pavilion belongs to our young masters. Have you had your al? If not, you can order any food you like,” the house servant respectfully bowed and let Chu Mu and Qingzi order whatever food they wanted.
The attic was located in the bustling market area. It was about ten ters high, made entirely of wood, and had an elegant atmosphere.
“Both of you, don’t worry. Master Hua Cheng and Master Lu Tao are distinguished people in the Elental City. It should be easy for them to inquire about such matters. If you aren’t from a distant place, you would definitely have heard about the fa of Masters Hua Cheng and Lu Tao in Langhe Domain,” the old house servant said, showing off and praising the two young masters.
“Both young masters are top young experts in the Langhe Domain, having extrely strong capabilities when it cos to controlling the Elental Soul Pets. If both of you have so leisure ti later, you can watch their battles,” the old servant said dutifully.
Ye Qingzi knew the tricks these two young masters played. If they were dealing with inexperienced young girls, their friendly approach, flattery, and complints would eventually lead to tight-knit relationships. Unfortunately for them, their tactics wouldn’t work on Ye Qingzi. She didn’t bother with the likes of Hua Cheng and Lu Tao, considering herself to be sitting with a famous top-level youth expert from the Western World. Comparatively, they held no value to her.
Inside Elental City, Hua Cheng and Lu Tao began to discuss the beautiful and noble Ye Qingzi.
“She’s exquisite, absolutely exquisite. She’s even more perfect up close – her face, that figure, and her temperant. She is way better than those other young misses from the bureaucracy, as well any daughters of rchants or famous instructors. We must have her,” Hua Cheng’s eyes sparkled.
“Don’t worry, she won’t run away. First, let’s ask around about what they were looking for,” Lu Tao said.
Both young masters had played with countless won and considered themselves proficient in dealing with their tricks. They had unique insights and could define different won with surprising accuracy after a few conversations and glances. In their eyes, the undefinable Ye Qingzi was their ultimate conquest.
‘We need to arrange sothing for what cos next. Otherwise, once we tell them and they leave, it won’t be good for us,” Hua Cheng said.
“It’s not a big deal, hehe,” Lu Tao chuckled.
Chu Mu grew tired of the old servant’s series of ulterior-motivated drivel, stood up, and walked away, gazing down at the bustling streets below.
Ye Qingzi also didn’t want to hear any more from the old servant and slowly walked over to Chu Mu, not saying anything. She was lost in thoughts about Ye Wansheng.
“Don’t worry, since he surrendered willingly, it ans he’s sowhat certain he can protect himself but just doesn’t want his soul pets to be hurt. I think with his language expression capability, he should be able to persuade them.” Chu Mu, seeing Ye Qingzi so worried, gently comforted her.
“Yeah, thank you.” Ye Qingzi barely managed to smile. Chu Mu felt that Ye Qingzi’s thanks were a bit strange…
“I delayed your journey.” Ye Qingzi explained.
“That’s not a big deal, anyvvay. I’m just going east, gaining experience along the way, as long as I can reach World City, it’s fine.” Chu Mu said.
“Are you also heading to World City?” Ye Qingzi showed a hint of surprise.
“Yeah, my soul is abnormal, and I need treatnt there.” Chu Mu said.
“Sorry, I almost forgot about your soul issue. I’ll go check now if there are any materials to refine Ice Soul Grass in Langhe City.” Ye Qingzi said.
Ye Qingzi knew that even if Chu Mu was heading to World City, he should have gone east directly, not specifically going through Langhe City and the upcoming Li City.
Moreover, they, the Ye siblings, had obviously offended a major power like the Elental Gate, which could easily involve Chu Mu. That’s why Ye Qingzi felt grateful to Chu Mu now.
“There’s no rush, it won’t matter in a short period of ti. Just take care of your brother’s situation first.” Chu Mu said.
“But, won’t this make your soul uncomfortable?” Ye Qingzi used her Soul Sense to probe Chu Mu’s soul, and his soul’s high temperature was close to being burned by fire poison all the ti. For an ordinary person, they would have been long gone.
“I couldn’t bear it before, but now I don’t feel anything.” Chu Mu said.
Ye Qingzi opened her mouth to speak, but she didn’t know what to say. For a man who had grown accustod to soul burning, Ye Qingzi didn’t know how to evaluate…
Chu Mu didn’t want Ye Qingzi to worry too much, so he continued to maintain a conversation with her, “What are you going to World City for?”
“Young experts will gather there to participate in The World Decree. My brother and I were planning to travel around before the competition to improve our skills. I think you probably want to participate too, right?” Ye Qingzi briefly explained.
“I don’t know the significance of The World Decree yet, whether to participate or not, we’ll see when we get to World City.” Chu Mu said.
“The World Decree is of great significance, and soon you will understand, Chu Mu, I think with your strength, you should be able to make a na for yourself in World City…” Ye Qingzi gazed at Chu Mu and said.
Chu Mu just shook his head with a smile.
Chu Mu was self-aware. Without the half-demon, if he encountered characters like Princess Jinrou and Nightmare Demon Youth Adjudicator Lu Shanli, he would have no chance of winning. And Nightmare Demon Palace’s experts were more than just these two people.
Furthermore, there are still powerful figures from Soul Hall, Soul Pet Palace, Elental Gate, and World Lord forces like the Luoyu Gate. The world is vast, and there are many experts. Chu Mu doesn’t think that he could rule over all the experts in the Western World just because he doesn’t have enemies here.
“Chu Mu, you’ve reached Soul Lord, haven’t you? Why have you only summoned three soul pets from beginning to end?” Ye Qingzi couldn’t help but ask out of curiosity.
Ye Qingzi had discovered this phenonon a long ti ago, and she had heard various rumors about Chu Mu, so saying Chu Mu lost a spirit, so saying Chu Mu was too powerful and didn’t need to summon too many soul pets, and others saying Chu Mu hid even stronger soul pets…
Once one becos famous, various rumors will erge, gradually concealing the original facts. That’s why Ye Qingzi doesn’t know why Chu Mu doesn’t summon four soul pets at the sa ti.
“I lost a spirit.” Chu Mu replied indifferently.
In fact, the thing Chu Mu felt that made him fall short of the truly powerful was this lost spirit. One less soul pet ant one less source of strength. If possible, after arriving at World City, Chu Mu wanted to ask Liu Binglan if there was any way to find the rebellious soul pet, which constantly occupied a spirit and brought him a lot of burdens.
“The two of you, it seems like the young master accidentally got into a small conflict with people from Elental Gate while helping you inquire about your friend. You may need to go to the Elental Gate Square. Oh, rest assured, both Young Master Lu Tao and Young Master Hua Cheng are well-known. There must be soone who is jealous of their fa and deliberately starts trouble, hehe…” The old servant bowed and said to Chu Mu and Ye Qingzi.
Both Chu Mu and Ye Qingzi sneered, imdiately guessing it was a trick played by these two young masters. But since it allowed them to enter the Elental Gate, it was also good as it didn’t waste their ti.
(This is all for today’s updates. I’ll be riding tomorrow and not sure about the update ti, but I’ll try to complete the two chapters’ updates. Those of you who stay up late reading novels should also get so rest early.)
