The Charm of Soul Pets (WN)

After they were pranked in the showers, Xia Yin and Chu Mu were extremely careful when eating dinner in case she did anything.

Thankfully, the food had no issues. The plentiful dinner was rather enjoyable, since there was nothing good to eat in Imprint Valley.

“Chu Mu, I prepared some treats for the little demon foxes as well. You can let them out here.” Lin Mengling said.

Chu Mu nodded, and opened his soul capture ring.

All the little demon foxes were over third phase. When the small cute fellows all jumped out and let out cute calls, everyone wanted to give them a hug.

Lan Nan brought the little demon foxes over to the side. When the other servants saw these cute little critters, their eyes all lit up. After getting permission from Lin Mengling, they each picked one to hug and feed.

Imprint Valley resources were plentiful, but those were resources purely to increase energy. The little demon foxes still needed a large amount of normal food to replenish their energy.

Furthermore, the little demon foxes probably hadn’t ever even eaten much food and usually used energy to fill their stomachs. The first time they had this human treat, they were all wagging their tails in excitement, causing everyone that was feeding them to be overjoyed.

“Chu Mu, why don’t you give these little ones to me. There’s a lot of viewing gardens in Divine Sect. Many people will feed them, and they can live a peaceful life.” Lin Mengling looked at the cute foxes and grew a liking towards them.

Chu Mu shook his head and said seriously, “They aren’t soul pets meant for viewing.”

Lin Mengling paused and was slightly upset at Chu Mu’s rejection, but she soon understood what he meant.

They weren’t soul pets meant for viewing. Regardless of the monarch rank Nine Tail Inferno Fox or the servant rank Moonlight Fox, they were all fighting soul pets. They weren’t domesticated animals meant for viewing. The demon fox species in Imprint Valley only had these foxes left. Seven Sin Fox Light King definitely didn’t want to see the remaining demon foxes become soul pets raised in a zoo for others to watch. He wants them to live on powerfully, and continue the bloodline of the Imprint Valley Demon Foxes, even if the highest bloodline there was only monarch rank.

Domestication was an insult to the battle-hungry demon fox species!

“Yi, why aren’t you eating it but hiding it?” Yi Yun hugged a little Starlight Fox and asked questioningly.

“Wuwu~~~” After the little fox ate its fill, it started hiding food, a motion that confused Yi Yun.

Little Starlight Fox hid a small lollipop. It bit open the lollipop and hid it in its tail. This was similar to how Mo Xie hid her food.

After hiding it well, the little starlight fox jumped in front of Chu Mu and called a few times.

Chu Mu couldn't understand, so he told Mo Xie to translate.

After hearing it, Chu Mu was touched.

Suddenly, Chu Mu started feeling that taking these little demon foxes away from the Light King was a mistake…...

“What did it say?” Lin Mengling asked.

“It said it was bringing it for Light King.” Chu Mu said.

Lin Mengling’s emotions changed. She wanted to open her mouth to say something, but decided to stay silent.

……

After leaving Divine Sect, Chu Mu returned to New Moon Palace.

New Moon Palace was Shen Mo’s responsibility. Bai Shaoye was guarding as well.

Shen Mo wasn’t particularly outstanding in power, but was extremely proficient in management. Under his guidance, New Moon Palace has developed greatly in Zhengming Main City.

Shen Mo originally managed Nightmare Palace. Now that he was guarding such a large environment, being able to fend off the stress and pressure was impressive.

Bai Shaoye was in charge of the experts that were joining New Moon Palace. Bai Shaoye was famous in the immortal rank. Adding on Yu Suo’s hidden support, Bai Shaoye was on the rise.

Bai Shaoye was a smart person and was trustworthy. After Chu Mu came to the palace, Shen Mo and Bai Shaoye quickly hurried over.

“King Chu, from your looks, you must have gotten stronger again!” Bai Shaoye smiled.

“It wasn’t bad, what’s the situation like with Xuan Gate?” Chu Mu asked.

Bai Shaoye probably could do something within a year, right?

“On the outside, Lu Fengnan still holds all power, but in reality, Shang Zuo can already compete against him. Though they can’t represent the standpoint of higher rank people, the general picture of Xuan Gate is now theirs to control. We just have to see who wins now.” Bai Shaoye said.

Chu Mu nodded and pulled out a light magic stone and said to him, “You have a light type soul pet right? Here, have this.”

Bai Shaoye was shocked. When he took over the light magic stone, his face was full of shock, “This….. This is a light type immortal stone!”

This was enough to create a light type immortal rank soul pet. Bai Shaoye never expected King Chu to give him such a valuable item immediately!

One has to know that even DivineSsect, Xuan Gate, Elemental Sect, Demon Beast Palace, and the others sawimmortal rank items as treasures, and wouldn’t easily give them away…...

Getting an immortal item was an incomprehensibly difficult task. Though Bai Shaoye was at the immortal rank himself, finding another immortal rank item was incredibly difficult. His Light Imprint Beast has been stuck in perfect dominator rank for countless years and he hadn’t found a good immortal item to strengthen it. Yet, now he was getting his most desired light type immortal item as a gift from the young King Chu.

“Bai Shaoye is but a rogue soul pet trainer, yet I received such a large gift from King Chu…..” Bai Shaoye quickly kneeled down in thanks, too excited to know what else to say.

“As an immortal rank, being willing to help New Moon Land is truly not an easy thing to do. I naturally can’t treat you poorly.” Chu Mu told him to stand back up.

“If King Chu has any commands, Bai Shaoye is willing to do anything.” Bai Shaoye said.

……

After Bai Shaoye left, Shen Mo took a while to recover from his shock too.

Seeing Shen Mo’s dazed expression, Chu Mu laughed, “If you had a light type soul pet at perfect dominator rank, I would give you one too.”

Shen Mo shook his head and laughed helplessly, “I’ve been training less and have been falling behind. However, Chu Mu, giving away such an expensive immortal item just like that…..”

It wasn’t that New Moon Land couldn’t afford the loss of an immortal item. However, they were still extremely limited, and weren’t given out unless core members reached a certain power.

“Bai Shaoye is worthy of it.” Chu Mu told people to look into Bai Shaoye’s background long ago. He was a typical expert that was ostracized by all the large factions. These people were just missing attention. One light type immortal stone in exchange for the complete loyalty of an immortal rank expert was a rather good deal.

Of course, the main reason was because Chu Mu had a large amount of Xuan and immortal light type items. These were all things that Old Li had gathered in Light Valley. Old Li entering the Imprint Valley was like entering a treasure chest; there were just too many treasures that he smelled!

Chu Mu had three light type immortal items. He gave one to Bai Shaoye, while he planned to give one to Liu Binglan, and then he would put the last one in New Moon Land’s resources storage. Anyone in their inner circle could take it if they needed it. After all, Chu Mu had no need for it.

“Chu Mu, we’ve been outstanding in the past year. and have been starting to get restricted by factions and borders, independent territories, and clans. Though these powers are much weaker than the larger factions, they can still impede our development greatly, and they are almost unanimously choosing to do so……” Shen Mo told Chu Mu the general situation.

“What’s the most effective way around it?” Chu Mu asked.

“Experts. Our New Moon Land experts are too few. These factions all have an expert that could match a Gate Master. They dare to taunt and impede us because of this power. If New Moon Land had a person with similar power to a Gate Master, they definitely don’t dare to continue this.

“En, I know now.” Chu Mu nodded.

“Also, Lu Fengnan recently had some actions that may cause some issues for New Moon Land.” Shen Mo said.

Lu Fengnan had actions?

Chu Mu wanted to get rid of him. Since he was coming voluntarily, it was the best case.

……

Not long after Chu Mu sat in New Moon Land, the veiled and aromatic Yu Suo appeared mysteriously.

Shen Mo knew his place and backed off. Such a woman could cause trouble with a few looks. Shen Mo was still vigilant around her even now.

“You’ve gotten quite some goods, able to give away an immortal item just like that.” Yu Suo said first.

“I couldn’t find your Flower Soul Diagram.” Chu Mu said.

“It’s fine.” Yu Suo said, but her lips curled up as if something more joyous had happened.

“Did you want to capture the Seven Sin Fox Light King?” Chu Mu asked.

“En, it is unfortunate that the Seven Sin Fox Light King bloodline is disappearing from this world.” Yu Suo said.

“Disappear? What do you mean?” chu Mu asked.

“Did Lin Mengling not tell you?”

“Tell me what?”

Yu Suo looked at Chu Mu and slowly said, “The Imprint Valley space is collapsing.”

Spatial collapse meant the destruction of all life within. Almost no organism could withstand the constant destruction of the spatial turbulence!

Hearing this message, Chu Mu felt as if he were thunderstruck and went still.

Spatial collapse, organism extinction!

Chu Mu thought back to the Martial Cloud Dragon that had just been born, as well as the Seven Sin Fox Light King that was enduring loneliness right now…...

He also thought about the group of infant demon foxes. If he hadn’t brought them out, they probably would have disappeared alongside the space as well!
