The Charm of Soul Pets

Chapter 1174: Escape Wen City

Chu Mu continued to ignore her. The Evil Good Queen’s allure was much stronger than Yu Suo’s. A single stray thought, and one would probably fall into her endless allure of traps. Then, the roles of master and servant may be reversed.

“Let’s run out and not stay around anymore.” Chu Mu glanced at the wounded Rock Wing Dragon and said.

Bai Yu, Mu Qingyi, and Ye Wansheng nodded and didn’t continue fighting.

Mo Xie ran at the very front of the team. Everywhere she passed, the demon clouds swept through. Her massive tail flew through the dominator rank experts and the moment anyone neared them, Mo Xie’s tail would sweep outwards.

Without a rock wing dragon, Mo Xie was unstoppable in Wen City. Charging all the way through, nothing was even worth it for Mo Xie to stop for.

Wan Meng and Lin Li didn’t give up, and continued to command merchant alliance people and the dark brown hunters to cut them off.

“Border Commander Wu Zhen, what are you hesitating about, they’re about to escape!!” Wan Meng yelled out in panic.

This time, Wan Meng and Lin Li were putting down the price. If they didn’t take down the middle class dominator rank devil soul, they won’t know how to deal with Divine Sect, especially with half the dark brown hunters lost.

“Did you two not see how powerful the nine tail organism was?” Wu Zhen’s face fell. When did he have to suffer these two men’s yelling?

If he could take down the middle class dominator rank devil soul, he would have risked it all a while ago. The problem was the nine tailed organism was truly too powerful. Adding on the flower type organism that could control pseudo dominator ranks, if they continued to fight, the one who suffers total defeat may not be the enemy but instead themselves.

“So...... so we just let them leave?” Wan Meng was dumbfounded.

The light net alone caused him to lose countless fortunes. Adding the dark brown hunters and the devil souls he ended up using as bait, he had lost too much.

Even if they caught them all back, it couldn’t stop their losses. Wan Meng and Lin Li were sure that this was a failure, and that they may even lose a title rank because of it!

“My War Devil Insect was in Guangtong Stronghold. If it was here, none of them would be able to leave!” Border Commander Wu Zhen bit down and said angrily.

What use was that now? Wu Zhen could only watch as they all slowly escaped out of the city.

Wan Meng and Lin Li still continued to chase. They couldn’t sustain this loss. Even if over half of their dominator rank experts lost all power under flower soul control, they still chased far away.

Wan Meng and Lin Li were both pure merchants. Other than their body guards being slightly useful, they were trash to dominator ranks. No matter how hard they chased, they were slowly thrown behind.

“Peng General, Peng General, stop them, stop them no matter what!!” Lin Li yelled with a mental voice towards the General Peng that was in charge of locking down the city.

General Peng was defending the city wall position. There were around ten thousand people along the city wall, all of which were elites of Wen City.

After Lin Li asked for the city to be sealed, Wen City City Master also gave the city the same command. Not a single man and soul pet stepped out of the city.

Though the city was sealed, the city was in chaos due to the devil soul. The dominator rank experts were already powerful. With hundreds of dominator ranks flying into the sky together, the general could do nothing even with thousands of men.

Everything within the city was seen by General PEng. When the most powerful person in Wen City couldn't’ stop them, why would it mean anything to stop them with his army?

The army’s energy together indeed could cause mass destruction to dominator rank organisms, but the army’s energy could very likely instantly disappear under the dominator rank’s force too. As a city’s protector, he had to measure the pros and cons, instead of listen blindly because if he lost his army, the entire city’s safety was in danger.

General Peng didn’t tell his army to go on guard. Without the command, the rows of troops didn’t dare move either.

Of course, more importantly, they knew that the organism that could defeat the Rock Wing Dragon wasn’t something they could stop.

“Sousousou~~~~~~~”

The nine massive tails flew over General Peng’s head. The mountain-like scene caused General Peng and the nearby thousand soldiers to stare in shock.

Looking from afar, they already felt incredibly shocked. When such a powerful organism flew right over their head, the shock nearly broke their hearts.

The soldiers stood stiffly in place, not daring to move or even breath.

After a long time, when the dragon like tails finally floated over, crowds of generals fell straight onto the ground, shaking and sweating profusely.

Even the rock wing dragon had never brought such pressure to them. General Peng looked at the nearly fainted subordinates and very difficultily lifted his head to glance at the silver masked man.

For some reason, he felt the man’s back image was familiar......

“You..... why didn’t you stop them, is the city sealing decree just an ornament? Do you not know what the devil soul means? The entire Wen City isn’t worth more than a single hair of that devil soul!!” Lin Li yelled out in rage.

It ran away, the dominator rank devil soul ran away. Such an opportunity of a lifetime, one where he could truly step above and beyond had just disappeared. The initial zeal and excitement he felt only mocked him as he felt the huge contrast.

General Peng didn’t mind his roaring and simply replied calmly, “I’m only doing my duty. In your eyes, Wen City may not be any more valuable than a single hair of that devil soul, but in my eyes, Wen City’s safety and my subordinates’ lives are more important than anything. If you want to capture the other devil souls, President Lin should hurry up. The city sealing won’t last long. Wen City can’t possibly deny people who come from afar and soul pet trainers who want to help Wen City for too long.”

Lin Li’s face turned black, but he couldn’t retort, instead only able to look resentfully at the slowly disappearing group of people.

Wan Meng, who suffered the greatest loss, had a steely green face, his oily and glistening face lightly quivering.

However, at least this guy was logical. He told all the dark brown hunters to start a city-wide search to find all the devil souls and get them back. After all, he had bought all these devil souls with his money.

......

After leaving the city, Chu Mu didn’t run far away because Ye Qingzi and Prince Chao were still in Wen City.

“Is everyone all right?” Chu Mu glanced at everyone and wanted to see if anyone was injured or had wounded soul pet.

Mu Qingyi, Ye Wansheng, and Bai Yu all shook their heads. Afterward, their gaze fell on Spectral Jinrou.

She looked worried, occasionally glancing back at the city.

Chu Mu knew that Spectral Jin Rou may have some memories of the dominator devil soul and was worrying about the devil souls trapped in the city. However, being able to help Spectral jin Rou leave was already hard. Saving the devil souls isn’t a possibility.

“This devil soul isn’t just a little bit stupid.” Evil Good Queen glanced at Spectral Jinrou and said.

Dominator rank devil soul was a very very high ranking organism. The reason she said the devil soul was stupid was because the powerful devil soul with the ability to read minds couldn’t even see through such a basic trick.

Spectral Jin Rou didn’t even want to speak with this woman. She knew clearly that the dominator rank devil soul saw through Wan Meng and Lin Li’s tricks, yet it still risked its life to save the devil souls.

Sadly, it failed, and nearly gave up itself in the process.

......

After waiting three days, the Sealed City Decree finally was removed.

Ye Qingzi found Chu Mu through her husband and wife ring, and reunited with them.

“Most of the devil souls were retracted but the rich one called Wan Meng bought all of them this time and wants to auction them in Cloud City.” Ye Qingzi said.

“Is the pig trying to allure the dominator rank devil soul out again?” Ye Wansheng said.

“Possible. He probably knows the dominator rank devil soul wants to save all the devil souls.” Chu Mu said.

“The emperor rank devil soul is a Home Searcher of the devil soul species.” Spectral Jinrou said.

“What is that?” Everyone asked in confusion.

At this time, Old Li rubbed his whiskers and said smugly, “Nomadic species are not able to live in the same place for long. Devil souls are nomadic and need to constantly move..... The so called Home Searcher is a member that could find the most suitable habitat for their species. There aren’t many of these, yet devil souls have a very high requirement for where they live. Only this way could they reproduce or else they would go extinct.”

“Today, the amount of devil souls was slowly disappearing. The devil soul that signed a soul pact with little princess may be one of the last of its species. If it was the leader, then the Home Searcher is necessary. Otherwise, the devil souls would never find a suitable home. I think the pig knows that the emperor rank is a Home Searcher so he bought it for a high price at the very beginning and wants to throw it out to bait the dominator rank in again.”

Spectral Jin Rou nodded heavily. Old LI spoke the heart of the dominator rank devil soul.

“It says, if you can help it save the home searcher, it will find some talented emperor rank devil souls to sign contracts with you.” Spectral Jin Rou said.

An emperor rank devil soul was near the price of a middle class dominator rank. Getting talented emperor ranks to sign soul pacts with them was extremely enticing.

Princess Jinrou also glanced at Chu Mu and, seeming to read his mind, she continued, “It also has some xuan items that little hidden dragon could use......”
