…
After passing the towering mountain ridge, a vast mountain range laid before them. Between the peaks, there was a distinct deep blue waterway, which meandered from the mountains in the distance, passed through a valley formed between two gradually uplifting forests, and flowed to the unknown depths of the mountain range.
Chu Mu and Princess Jinrou followed the wide river valley while heading against the current.
Chu Mu and Princess Jinrou’s destination was Chen Lake Waterfall. The two verbally agreed to support each other and equally split the ultimate reward after reaching the endpoint.
Although Chu Mu wanted to claim the prize himself, there were too many experts in the Seventh Realm, and he didn’t think he could truly win the highest honor in the Seventh Realm.
Princess Jinrou’s strength was definitely above his own, and she had already investigated the majority of the second-tier threats. Chu Mu could also get some relatively accurate information from her.
Of course, these were not the real reasons for Chu Mu to travel with Princess Jinrou, but rather the conspiracy of Xia Guanghan she mentioned. In Jia City, Chu Mu had already been sure that Princess Jinrou and Xia Guanghan were not on the same side. He found what she said about Xia Guanghan to be quite credible.
During this time, Chu Mu had been worrying secretly about Xia Guanghan.
Since Xia Guanghan had previously used the Heart of the Nine-tailed Flame Fox as bait, it meant that he was certain Chu Mu would appear in World City. Chu Mu thought that, as long as he didn’t summon Mo Ye to fight, Xia Guanghan probably wouldn’t be able to see through his identity.
But Chu Mu clearly underestimated Xia Guanghan’s ability, because Xia Guanghan had targeted him during the Fourth Realm!
Princess Jinrou said that Soul Hall Chu Chen’s high-profile appearance in the past and the enmity he had with Shen Yicheng constantly made them investigate Chu Mu’s identity during the World Decree.
Here, Princess Jinrou mentioned a man, Zuo Xiao from the Underground Palace.
Zuo Xiao’s subordinates could be said to be all over the world, and Xia Guanghan had asked Zuo Xiao to deal with Chu Mu during the World Decree.
Before, Zuo Xiao had always been suspicious of Chu Mu’s identity. After Chu Mu killed Jiang Zhi in the Fourth Realm and once again revealed his strength, Zuo Xiao was more or less certain that Soul Hall Chu Chen was Chu Mu.
Zuo Xiao and Xia Guanghan were both very smart. They knew that Chu Mu was now under the protection of Soul Hall experts. Therefore, even if they already guessed Chu Mu’s identity, they didn’t make any real moves.
So, they focused all their plans on the World Decree. One could say that Zuo Xiao had invisibly set a trap for Chu Mu during the World Decree, and the moment Chu Mu appeared, he would be a fish in a barrel.
When Princess Jinrou exposed this, Chu Mu was also surprised.
What surprised him was not Zuo Xiao’s trap, but how Xia Guanghan and Zuo Xiao saw through his identity.
Chu Mu used only mainstream soul pets in the battles of the previous realms, which many people possessed. They couldn’t possibly lock onto him based on this alone.
“Young Master, I think this might be because of Li City. Yu He collaborated with Shen Yicheng, which also means that Yu He may have a relationship with the people of the Underground Palace. If Zuo Xiao from the Underground Palace was also in Li City at that time, he would definitely know that you had appeared in Li City. Xia Guanghan is one of the few people who know that you can half-demonize. At that time, both Soul Hall Chu Chen and the half-demon were in the same city. If you slightly connect the two, it’s easy to become suspicious of you. Then, they could compare your performances in the realms…” Fox Elder spoke.
Chu Mu frowned as well. He had always thought he had concealed himself well but did not expect to be discovered by Xia Guanghan in the end.
But since he was exposed, Chu Mu felt that there was no need to worry about it anymore.
In the World Decree, Xia Guanghan could not interfere. The only person Chu Mu had to face was Zuo Xiao.
Zuo Xiao was an assassin, and Chu Mu had experienced countless killings as well. There were many unknowns in the World Decree, and it was still uncertain who would die in the end.
…
The information Princess Jinrou revealed greatly helped Chu Mu. In return, Chu Mu naturally had to help Princess Jinrou succeed in passing the Seventh Realm.
He had never underestimated Princess Jinrou’s incomprehensible strength.
But the fact proved that she was indeed a female soul pet trainer who was poorly suited to wilderness training.
Along the way, Princess Jinrou was cautious, yet she still made some common mistakes in wilderness training.
“So, you don’t know a lot of things, but why do you always look like you know everything?” Chu Mu sat on a rock to rest, looking back at Princess Jinrou, whose leg was scratched.
Just now, Chu Mu and Princess Jinrou passed through a thorny forest. Chu Mu had thought that Princess Jinrou would know that the danger in this place was not the Plant Soul Beasts but the potential crisis under this thorny environment.
However, the delicate princess still got injured. The intense poison entered her bloodstream through the wound, and even after taking the antidote in time, her calf was still poisoned into a green color.
“I saw you take pleasure in my misfortune. From the beginning, I told you that I wasn’t familiar with the Mysterious Realm environment and needed someone to guide me. I thought someone who had once expressed admiration for me would generously help me through, but obviously, I was too naive.” Princess Jinrou said.
Everyone changes. Two years ago, Princess Jinrou had heard Chu Mu’s expression of admiration for her when they were at the Great Chu Noble Family.
But after those two years, Princess Jinrou realized that she had developed a different attitude, perhaps due to Chu Mu having someone else in his heart.
Princess Jinrou was also sulking. Chu Mu had proven himself not to be a gentleman and was extremely selfish and opportunistic. Without revealing Xia Guanghan’s matter, Chu Mu certainly wouldn’t help her.
Princess Jinrou felt that Chu Mu’s vigilance towards her was not simply about Mo Ye’s matter, but rather an unintentionally revealed wariness and distrust.
About Chu Mu’s escape with his soul pet, Princess Jinrou didn’t understand, so she didn’t realize that her appearance and temperament put Chu Mu on guard against women like her. This was especially true since Chu Mu now knew that even if they were face to face, he couldn’t identify his escaped soul pet.
It’s probably the princess-like air you’ve been presenting that made me subconsciously think you’re capable of anything. I’m not the only one who thinks this. I prefer the first time I saw you when you had no identity disguise; it felt better.” Chu Mu didn’t like to beat around the bush and directly expressed his thoughts.
While saying this, Chu Mu opened his space ring and handed Ye Qingzi’s highly effective detoxifying medicine to Princess Jinrou, suggesting that she use the antidote.
“I’m sorry, but I have passed the age of innocence.” Princess Jinrou replied coldly.
Chu Mu was stunned and seemed to understand something, but he didn’t say anything.
The rock Chu Mu was sitting on was on the edge of the fault. In front of him was a lush basin.
Years of experience in wild training told Chu Mu that the basin was dangerous and not as peaceful as it appeared.
“The basin ahead is dangerous. There are two options: detour and cross. The detour could take an unknown number of days. With our progress, it would be difficult to cross the entire Mysterious Realm within fifteen days.” Chu Mu informed Princess Jinrou of the situation.
“Let’s cross it. At least I can be useful in a battle,” Princess Jinrou said with an air of cold pride. She was clearly annoyed by Chu Mu’s words.
She remembered that Chu Mu harassed her in Jia City and hadn’t settled the score with him yet. Meanwhile, he was accusing her of being too scheming and manipulative.
Although she has become more cunning, she dislikes Chu Mu’s disrespectful attitude and has no reason not to be angry. If she could find another person she could trust a little in the Seventh Realm, she would definitely not travel with such a man.
“Judging by the terrain, this basin should be an essential path for many participants entering the Mysterious Realm. Be prepared at all times; there should be many ruthless people in the second-tier,” Chu Mu warned.
Princess Jinrou nodded and, after controlling the injuries on her calf, slowly chanted a spell, summoning an icy fox.
This little icy fox was one of Princess Jinrou’s main pets, the Ice Crystal Curse Marked Fox Demon.
It had the same rank as the Nine-tailed Flame Fox – a perfect soul pet among the Commander Level creatures. Even in the Monarch Domain, the momentum of the Ice Crystal Curse Marked Fox Demon was no less impressive.
The Ice Crystal Curse Marked Fox Demon also had Chu Lian’s racial skills. As soon as the cold and proud fox appeared, it quietly lay in Princess Jinrou’s soft arms, its agile eyes shining with cold light as it stared at Little Mo Xie on Chu Mu’s shoulder.
Little Mo Xie just yawned and ignored the Ice Crystal Curse Marked Fox Demon’s gaze, continuing to sleep on Chu Mu’s shoulder.
Chu Mu stood up from the rock and slowly descended, following the plant-covered slope.
Princess Jinrou followed closely behind, not summoning her soul pet – she slid down the slope like Chu Mu.
…
“Princess, after talking to me so much just now, were you also trying to numb that person?”Suddenly, Chu Mu’s Soul Sense entered Princess Jinrou’s Spiritual World.
“Hmm, So you noticed it too.” Princess Jinrou’s beautiful, intelligent eyes sparkled.
