Chapter 519: Chapter 391: The Descendant of the Undying Fairy Empress, Ye Qingzi
“It really is intuition…” Upon hearing Chu Mu’s explanation, Shang Heng couldn’t help but smile bitterly.
It was Chu Mu who found the breakthrough from Jiang Zhi, and it was Chu Mu who suggested tracking him. Yet, at this moment, they suddenly changed course. Although Shang Heng also speculated that Jiang Zhi might be leading them in circles, they couldn’t just abandon him for that reason.
Shang Heng was not the kind to hold opinions against others, at least he never had any opinions about Chu Mu. He might have wondered why Palace Master Yu entrusted this matter to a third-tier young expert. Yet, through his actions, he made Chu Mu feel that he was a rational and reliable individual.
…
The sudden decision to head to West Street was unexpected. As they approached the increasingly civilised areas of the city, Chu Mu remembered someone.
This person could easily reside somewhere close to the high-end pharmacy and the Spirit Sect’s outpost. Yet when leaving the city, she preferred staying in the inconspicuous West Street District.
This seemed to have become a habit. While Chu Mu associated with her, she always chose her residence naturally where the West Street residential areas intersected with the commercial ones.
Chu Mu knew she was evading something. But it wasn’t until he thought of the Spirit Master who could concoct unique potions that he suddenly linked her with this matter.
The primary reason behind this verdict was Chu Mu remembering that after capturing the Ghost Dome King, Ye Qingzi once gave him a potion which could accelerate the recovery of Soul Power!
Chu Mu was somewhat surprised at the time, as he had never thought that a potion stimulating Soul Power recovery could exist. Initially, he thought it might be his narrow-mindedness and didn’t inquire further. But when he still didn’t find any such potion in World City, he realized how unique this Spirit Item that Ye Qingzi possessed was in the field of Soul Pets!
The Soul Power of a Soul Pet Master is very limited. Any Soul Skill or change of Soul Pet plays a vital role on the battlefield. Imagine facing an opponent of equal strength with a potion that could rapidly restore Soul Power, and being able to release an extra ninth-level skill or changing a Soul Pet, that would be absolutely lethal for the opponent.
At present, only Ye Qingzi held this kind of Soul Power potion. Therefore, Ye Qingzi indeed became an extremely important person who could impact the entire power structure…
The association between Ye Qingzi and this matter, that she should be in West Street, all these were Chu Mu’s speculation, there was perhaps less than 20% chance for this. However, even with such a small chance, Chu Mu decisively changed course, because he could never let Ye Qingzi fall into Shen Yicheng’s hands at any cost!
Ye Qingzi tends to live in West Street. This time on visiting World City, Chu Mu felt certain that she would pick to live in the low-key West Street. And in Chu Mu’s opinion, there was only one reason that Jiang Zhi was leading him to sprint towards East Street District: Shen Yicheng has noticed Soul Hall’s movements, and is using a diversion.
“I hope Shen Yicheng only just realized Jiang Zhi’s problem and then diverted Jiang Zhi,” Chu Mu thought anxiously in his heart.
If Shen Yicheng had noticed the anomaly long ago, then he would definitely have taken action in advance. In which case, no matter how urgently he rushed to West Street District now, it would be meaningless.
Anyway, Chu Mu now had to get there as soon as possible.
“I have already asked some of the younger generation members to go to West Street District. If something happens there, they should be able to delay for some time.” Shang Heng said to Chu Mu.
“Yeah, let one or two of the middle-aged generation go with Zhan Hong.” Chu Mu said.
“The middle-aged generation cannot make a move. If they do, it would cause trouble for Palace Master Yu.” Shang Heng said.
“Just to save his life.” Chu Mu said.
“Save his life?” Both Shang Heng and Zhao Cheng showed confused expressions.
“If I were to use Jiang Zhi as bait, I’d throw the bait next to the wolf’s den, which would save me a lot of trouble.” Chu Mu said.
Shang Heng and Zhao Cheng paused for a moment, then immediately understood the meaning of Chu Mu’s words!
Shang Heng realized that Zhan Hong, who was acting alone, might encounter major troubles. He hurriedly sent a signal to some nearby Soul Hall members to reinforce Zhan Hong, to avoid any unforeseen incidents.
…
West Street District
Shadows in black darted about this very ordinary district, unnoticed by the people going back and forth along the streets and alleys. The drunkards were still making a racket, the workers were hurrying home, and occasionally some children were chasing and playing on the street.
In the middle of this street, there was a potion shop, offering a variety of Soul Pet potions and Spirit Items. Most of the Soul Pet Masters visiting this shop were Soul Disciples and Soul Warriors.
This district wasn’t like Central City. It was brightly lit even at dawn. As night fell and the bright moon hung high in the sky, the street gradually quieted down. The dim light from the distant lampposts and the lonely moonlight mixed together, sprinkling on the street, and the entire street seemed even more silent and desolate.
“No need to wait for her. Close the door. She’ll return from the courtyard by herself.” Ye Wansheng said to the third grade Spirit Master’s Apprentice.
Early in the morning, Ye Qingzi left the house and Ye Wansheng doesn’t ask where she was going. To Ye Wansheng, his younger sister seemed to be much smarter than him. Instead of worrying about her, he was more concerned about himself.
In fact, Ye Wansheng was not foolish. Despite his seemingly careless appearance, he was a very thoughtful person. However, most of the time, Ye Wansheng was too lazy to think and didn’t like to guard against potential problems.
“The second-tier… The second-tier… With my current strength, at most, I can only be a runner-up in the second tier. Unless all the experts die in the end, there’s no hope for me to receive the final glory.” Ye Wansheng walked into the courtyard, massaging his temples.
After leaving Li City, Ye Wansheng intentionally separated himself from Ye Qingzi for a while, going to some places alone for trial and practice. Losing his strongest soul pet was a heavy blow to him. He felt that if he did not experience in some dangerous places and seize some opportunities, he would be just an ordinary expert among his peers.
Fortunately, Ye Wansheng was not unlucky. He obtained a high-rank Monarch-level Soul Pet in the seventh-level Mysterious Realm. With his efforts during this period, he was able to raise this low-rank Monarch to seventh-rank ninth stage.
Ye Wansheng’s Sword Sting has reached the eighth rank third stage, and its battle power level is quasi-monarch, one of Ye Wansheng’s main pets. The Spotted Demon Tiger now only reached the seventh-rank ninth stage, and there is still a little way to break through to the eighth rank.
Ye Wansheng also has a Servant-level Soul Pet-Flames Tail, which surprisingly has reached the tenth rank.
This tenth-rank Flames Tail battle power level has been strengthened by Ye Wansheng to high-level War General. If he could find suitable spirit items to increase the battle power level of this Flames Tail to Commander Level, then the strength of Ye Wansheng’s Flames Tail would be equivalent to a ninth-rank Monarch!
However, it is still somewhat difficult for a servant-level Soul Pet’s battle power level to be upgraded to Commander level, so the current strength of this tenth-rank Flames Tail is approximately close to an eighth-rank Monarch.
The strongest soul pets that Ye Wansheng currently possess are these four: the seventh-rank ninth stage low-rank Monarch Thunder Lord, the eighth-rank third stage quasi-monarch Sword Sting, the seventh-rank ninth stage quasi-monarch Spotted Demon Tiger, and the tenth-rank high-level War General Flames Tail.
Experts in the second tier generally have four eighth-rank Monarch-level Soul Pets. Ye Wansheng’s lineup of soul pets definitely belongs to the bottom of the second tier.
However, he has no choice but to acquire the final honor…
“Try my best to increase my strength during this last half of the year, otherwise, I am really just a pushover.” Ye Wansheng sighed and walked towards his room.
“Swoosh~~~~~~~~~~~~”
Suddenly, a sound like rapid wind blowing came from outside the courtyard. Ye Wansheng, with his sharp perceptual abilities, immediately caught the sound.
Ye Wansheng furrowed his brows, releasing his Soul Sense, investigating the surrounding situation.
The next moment, Ye Wansheng immediately started chanting a spell, summoned his seventh-rank ninth stage Starfield Devil Steed at the first opportunity.
“Ye, let’s leave quickly!” Ye Wansheng realized that he was surrounded by some unknown people. Panicking, he jumped on the back of the Starfield Devil Steed to rush out of the courtyard.
“Boom~~~~~~~~~”
With a loud bang, the room that Ye Wansheng was about to enter just collapsed in the middle all of a sudden!
Ye Wansheng was startled. He glanced around and, shockingly, found several large, green vines twisting their bodies, burrowing out from underneath the houses, demolishing the entire ten-meter-high building. The fragments of bricks and tiles rolled down onto the ground…
“Devilish Vines!”
Such a massive vine creature could only be Devilish Vines. Ye Wansheng realized that his entire courtyard might already be under the control of the Devilish Vines. He quickly commanded the Starfield Devil Steed to jump towards the outside of the courtyard.
“Rumble Rumble Rumble Rumble~~~~~~~~~~~”
Just as the Starfield Devil Steed of Ye Wansheng was about to jump, the walls around the courtyard collapsed amidst a violent shaking, making a loud noise. The sound frightened the nearby residents, who started screaming and scurrying away in panic.
Ye Wansheng didn’t dare to hesitate. Making the Starfield Devil Steed run through the alley, he tried to get onto the street. The running speed of the Starfield Devil Steed was very fast. With the effects of the starlight, it was as swift as the wind, and within a moment, they rushed onto the street.
“Ye Wansheng, long time no see.”
Suddenly, a frivolous voice came from the rooftop!
Ye Wansheng, who was driving the Starfield Devil Steed, turned his head and saw a man he loathed standing on the roof of the street. Behind him was the Devilish Vine, whose body was well over the height of the building!
Ye Wansheng was all too familiar with this man. It was this guy’s clinging spirit that forced him and his sister to wander around!
