The Charm of Soul Pets

“Let’s go. It has not enjoyed a slaughter for a long time. Let it have its fun,” Hades Fox God told Chu Mu.

“......” Chu Mu was a little speechless.

He could tell that it was really difficult to find an opponent to spar with after reaching Undying rank. That explained why Yellow Spring Emperor did not want to use any technique so that it could enjoy this slaughter for a bit longer.

Alright, the life of an Undying rank was actually rather boring.

With Yellow Spring Emperor opening the path, those Heaven Demons could not hinder their advancement at all.

The densely packed Heaven Demons were swept away by Yellow Spring Emperor’s tail and became jam on the walls around. The path ahead was immediately emptied.

Hades Fox God was clearly a clean freak. It did not even want to touch those disgusting monsters. It passed through those grouped up Heaven Demons easily.

After crossing through this clearing under Heaven City, the caves in front became much more complicated.

The caves led to all directions and everywhere was filled with Heaven Demon’s excretions. They did not know which cave actually led to Heaven Demon’s real nest.

Chu Mu took a glance at Dragon Maiden and asked, “Didn’t you guys manage to advance into their nest before?”

“The location of their nest will change...... But I should be able to find it. Follow me,” said Dragon Maiden.

Dragon Maiden took the lead. She used her sense of smell to look for the nest.

Along the way, they could see the coldly glaring eyes. After they saw Undying rank like Chu Mu charging in, they fled cowardly like rats and bats.

After crossing through a long underground tunnel, Chu Mu faintly felt some heat.

The heat came from another rugged cave, different from the path Dragon Maiden took.

“Wait, walk this way,” Chu Mu stopped Dragon Maiden.

“That place is too hot, Heaven Demons will never build a nest there,” said Dragon Maiden with certainty.

“I’m just here to confirm one thing,” Chu Mu did not let Dragon Maiden continue and walked towards the other path.

Hades Fox God casually followed Chu Mu towards the source of the heat.

Dragon Maiden was frustrated, but still followed Chu Mu.

......

The temperature was getting higher and higher, even the stone wall was heated red.

Chu Mu took a deep breath and sensed the familiar heat aura blowing towards him.

“It should be here,” said Chu Mu.

He began accelerating towards the source of the heat.

Huhu~!

Flames started to spew out from the cracks between rocks. Due to the high temperature, there was no Heaven Demon around here.

Dragon Maiden had two doubts. The first was why there was such a powerful heat source here. There should not be such a thing below Heaven Palace. The second was why Chu Mu came to this place without any Heaven Demon even though he was looking for Heaven Demon’s nest......

The intense heat rumbled towards them. Dragon Maiden began to feel uncomfortable under such high temperature.

Chu Mu and Hades Fox God both possessed fire property. This temperature was nothing to them, only Dragon Maiden started sweating and turning pale.

“This...... Just what is this heat......” asked Dragon Maiden.

This heat was very familiar. Dragon Maiden felt that she had sensed this somewhere before!

“You definitely know what it is,” Chu Mu did not give a straight answer.

Dragon Maiden frowned and rebuked, “Impossible. This must be the formation Yu Suo set up. The Crimson Sol energy she stole is stored here.”

Chu Mu smiled at the sudden realization that this Dragon Maiden was really stupid.

“The Crimson Sol energy she stole is here,” Chu Mu pointed at himself.

Yu Suo passed all the Crimson Sol energy to Chu Mu, so she would not be secretly hiding any herself. She was unable to absorb this tyrannical heat, so it could not be used to strengthen herself.

Then, what was the Crimson Sol energy ahead of them?

Dragon Maiden’s heart sank.

She had seen so many Heaven Demons hiding in the clearing below Heaven City a moment ago, which was already unbelievable. And now, the Crimson Sol energy which should be gathered in Heaven City had somehow been stored underground......

Could it be that other than Yu Suo, there was someone else stealing Crimson Sol energy?

Impossible!

Yu Suo did not work as a Totem Divine Maiden for a long time. However, she had certainly learned how a Totem Divine Maiden set up the diagram. It was reasonable that she could steal Crimson Sol energy.

However, who could the second thief be?

There was nobody else who could steal Crimson Sol energy.

Huhuhuhuhuhu~!

The intense heat radiated from the front.

Dazzling redness dyed the vision and stung their eyes.

Before them, there was a deep and huge well. A cluster of burning flame ball was hovering inside the well.

The flames danced and magma spilled out. It looked as if they were standing on Crimson Sol.

They were so close to this crimson flame and the high temperature made Dragon Maiden feel as if her lungs were burning.

Crimson Sol energy!

This was the purest Crimson Sol energy. Shouldn’t it be stored in Heaven City by Totem Divine Maiden’s Solar Eclipse formation? Why did it appear here???

“What...... What’s going on!? Why is this happening!?” Dragon Maiden was shocked by the scene.

Crimson Sol energy could be said as the source of life to Heaven Palace. Their lifespan was sustained by letting Totem Divine Maiden convert this energy into God Dew, then distributing the God Dew to every Heaven Palace member.

Although Yu Suo stole the very first and purest Crimson Sol energy, she only stole a portion. For the following Solar Eclipse period, Crimson Sol energy would be absorbed by Solar Eclipse formation, then refined by totem Divine Maiden and used to sustain the survival of Heaven Palace......

However, if Crimson Sol energy was gathered in this well, how was Totem Divine Maiden supposed to produce God Dew??

“Who...... Who stole this energy......” Dragon Maiden was becoming hysterical.

There was a large number of Heaven Demons gathered under Heaven Palace waiting to make a move.

The entire Heaven Palace was completely clueless.

The Crimson Sol energy they depended on for survival actually gathered in this well, it was the same as Heaven Palace’s lifeline being severed.

Human Mother said ‘Heaven Palace is about to perish’. Was it really becoming a fact? If not, just what did she witness?

Hades Fox God turned to take a glance at the despaired Dragon Maiden and snorted, “Sometimes, you should not believe too much in things you believe in. Didn’t Human Mother tell you? Heaven Palace itself is destroying Heaven Palace.”

“There are only two people who can change Solar Eclipse formation. One is Yu Suo who stole Crimson Sol energy once, the other is your current Totem Divine Maiden. The energy Yu Suo stole is in me, then who transferred the energy to here...... Is it hard to guess?” said Chu Mu.

Dragon Maiden stiffened.

Totem Divine Maiden......

The current Totem Divine Maiden, how could she do such a thing??

That’s a rebellion!

“How interesting. Even the Totem Divine Maiden has fallen to the demon’s side. It’s difficult for Heaven Palace not to perish,” Hades Fox God was totally acting like a spectator.

“There must be a conspiracy. How can Totem Divine Maiden do such a thing, that’s impossible!” Dragon Maiden did not want to believe.

Chu Mu smiled coldly, “You still don’t understand??”

“Understand what? It must be Yu Suo. She collaborated with the demons...... She already tried to rebel when she was the Totem Divine Maiden,” roared Dragon Maiden hysterically.

“You’re really hopelessly stupid. Is Heaven Palace still unwilling to review that incident even now?” said Chu Mu.

“Which?” asked Dragon Maiden.

“The death of the previous Totem Divine Maiden, Yu Qie,” said Chu Mu.

“She...... She received punishment for her sister......” as Dragon Maiden spoke, she suddenly realized something.

She stared hard at Chu Mu and spoke after a long time, “You...... You are saying that Yu Qie was sabotaged by the current Totem Divine Maiden......”

“I can’t be sure if she’s the culprit, but one thing’s for sure. Heaven Demons made use of internal members of Heaven Palace to lure Yu Qie to that land where they prepared an ambush. Their original intention was to kill her directly so that the current Totem Divine Maiden can take over her spot. Unfortunately, Heaven Demon Ancestor did not kill her and let her escape......” said Chu Mu.

Chu Mu saw Yu Suo’s memory, he was clear of the truth.

The person who set this up was obviously Guardian Palace’s Yu Tian. Yu Tian clearly made a certain trade with Heaven Demons. Otherwise, he would not have made use of Yu Suo to set up such a trap.

Next, the verdict Guardian Palace made towards Yu Suo and Yu Qie was even more funny. Even though Heaven Palace was severely damaged, they just had to force the Totem Divine Maiden even Heaven Demon Ancestor could not kill to death......

Heaven Palace’s laws could not be changed?

What a joke. Someone must have interfered and was determined to execute Yu Qie.

Meanwhile, it was also Guardian Palace’s member who exposed Yu Suo’s fake Totem Divine Maiden identity and resolutely disallowed Yu Suo to be the Totem Divine Maiden.

In addition, Yu Suo already hated Heaven Palace, so she was exiled again.

Hence, the new Totem Divine Maiden took over the position.

Perhaps, Chu Mu was unable to be certain that the current Totem Divine Maiden was in cahoot with Heaven Demons. However, he could be sure now since, other than Yu Suo, only the current Totem Divine Maiden could transfer Heaven Palace’s lifeline to here and sever Heaven Palace’s lifeline!
