Chapter 1151 - Chapter 1151 Chapter 1016 Raid on Spring City

Chapter 1151: Chapter 1016: Raid on Spring City Chapter 1151: Chapter 1016: Raid on Spring City Chu Mu didn’t need to wear a veil or mask, as Master Li had already disguised him before leaving the house. It was unlikely that anyone could recognize him.

This appearance was the one Chu Mu used when he assumed the identity of Chu Chen. The World Realm was thousands of miles away, and there was only a one in ten thousand chance of encountering someone who had seen his face before, so there weren’t too many concerns. After all, if he changed to another face, Ye Qingzi would probably feel uncomfortable looking at him, and it could hinder their intimacy.

…

After arriving at Spring City, the trio found it to be a rare scene of peace.

“Strange, have the two sides agreed not to fight?” Chu Mu mused to himself as he looked at the eerily quiet city in the distance.

On their way through most of the cities they had crossed, even if no war had erupted, there was usually tension in the air, and they often saw battle resources being transported to various fortress cities. But arriving at this important Spring City, there was not a single sound. It was too unusual.

“If there’s no fighting here, it means that Spring City must have launched an attack on the cities of the Three Great Palaces, and now the Three Great Palaces are defending,” said Mu Qingyi.

“I remember Elder Chao mentioning that this city is quite important,” Chu Mu added.

“Look at the side of the mountain,” Ye Qingzi suddenly pointed below and said.

Now, in the dusk, something was slowly wriggling in the shadowy areas at the base of the dark mountain, inching closer and closer to Spring City.

“An ambush?” Chu Mu’s eyes lit up.

Spring City was now in the hands of the Soul Covenant, so this group hidden at the foot of the mountain must be the people from the Three Great Palaces, and it looked like they were from the Nightmare Demon Palace!

“This mountain has a shortcut leading to an underground river, which goes against the current and leads directly to a natural lake inside the city. This secret should be known only to us of the Mu Clan,” Mu Qingyi explained.

“Then it’s possible that someone from the Mu Clan chose to stand with the Nightmare Demon Palace and informed them of this secret pathway that would allow them to outsmart the enemy,” Chu Mu remarked.

“Yes, it’s indeed the best way to take down Spring City. And given the situation at the moment, the bulk of Spring City’s army must be besieging the cities of the Three Great Palaces,” Mu Qingyi nodded.

“Let’s go down, we need to enter Spring City anyway,” Chu Mu suggested.

…

At the mountainside, three thousand members of the Nightmare Demon Palace and Soul Pet Palace Army, clad uniformly in black, were stealthily navigating through the mountain forest with their Demon Spirits and Dark Attribute Soul Pets.

The leader of this assault team was the Vice City Master of City of Wufang and also an Elder of the Nightmare Demon Palace, Shen Kun.

Shen Kun was actually the older cousin of Grand Elder Shen and a Strong One of the Peak Emperor Grade who held command in City of Wufang.

Their initial plan had been to take down Spring City in one fell swoop, but to their surprise, the Soul Covenant had stationed and hidden far more troops in Spring City than they had anticipated. This led to their defeat in the ensuing battle, with a counterattack pushing them all the way to the gates of City of Wufang, plunging it into crisis as well.

Just when they thought the war was undoubtedly lost, an Expert appeared, managing to temporarily hold back the large invading force, giving City of Wufang a chance to catch its breath.

Following that, a Strategist surnamed Mu suggested a plan to the city master to infiltrate the city from this location, taking advantage of the emptiness within the enemy’s city defenses to conquer it.

After the city master applauded the strategy, he immediately ordered the three thousand elite troops, who had already been laying in wait, to infiltrate the city!

Accompanying Shen Kun was his grandniece, whose strength had grown rapidly in the past few years. Now, at a time when Strong Ones were needed, Shen Kun brought her along. With her assistance, their chances of capturing the city would be much greater.

“Niece Shen, can that son-in-law really hold off Demon Yue and other powerful figures of the Soul Hall Examination Position? I’m afraid that even if we capture the city, City of Wufang might already be breached,” Shen Kun expressed his concerns.

Shen Kun’s three thousand men were all elite soldiers; if they were defending the city, it would not be easy for the Soul Hall and the like to capture it.

“Don’t worry, he is very strong. He has even contended with Chu Fangchen before!” Shen Kun’s niece assured him.

“Contended with Chu Fangchen? Really?” Shen Kun and several deputy officers were stunned.

Now in the Three Great Palaces, who didn’t know the name of Chu Fangchen? His reputation spread far and wide after the battles at Snow City and Spirit City, and his confrontation with Mo Ling, followed by the recent world-shocking battle against two Dominator Level figures, had already made him a legendary figure among the Three Great Palaces, the pinnacle of strength, almost a spiritual leader!

Someone who had contended with Chu Fangchen, even if it was in the past, could only be a dominant force among Emperor-level creatures, and with such a person present, the Soul Hall’s hope of breaching the city was nothing short of wishful thinking!

“That son-in-law is still so young, niece Shen, you’d better not be fooling this old man,” Shen Kun remained a bit skeptical.

“It’s true!” Shen Kun’s niece said earnestly.

“Then we have hope in this battle,” Shen Kun declared.

While they were speaking, the deputy officer suddenly pointed to the sky, his face alert, and said, “Elder, two unidentified Soul Pets are rapidly approaching!”

Shen Kun’s expression changed as he said, “Damn, we’ve been discovered!”

Shen Kun looked up and immediately saw two incredibly powerful creatures descending from the sky!!

“`

“Peak…Peak Emperor Grade!!”

“It’s two Peak Emperor Grade creatures!!”

Shen Kun and several deputy officers were stunned. Although their team was elite, discovering two Peak Emperor Grade creatures would definitely lead to a fierce battle. Most importantly, their whereabouts were now completely exposed to the enemy.

“Elder, one of them is the Soul Hall’s Misty Immortal Bird!” one of the deputy officers, who had keen eyes, hurriedly informed the elder.

Shen Kun also saw the Misty Immortal Bird descending and felt slightly more at ease, but he did not relax his vigilance!

“Everyone, don’t panic, we are here to help you,” Mu Qingyi said quickly as she saw the three thousand troops fully on guard.

Talking was not enough, and the people from the Three Great Palaces would definitely not trust a strange force so easily. Now, Chu Mu took out the Tenth Level Vice Order from his space ring and flung it to the person who looked like the leader.

Shen Kun caught the Vice Order immediately and saw that it was an unforgeable command of the tenth level, which made him feel much more at ease.

The soldiers were even more astonished when two powerful beings landed among the troops!

The persons controlling the Peak Emperor Grade creatures were two graceful women, one dignified and one noble, truly breathtaking!

“You are…” Shen Kun stared at the one man and two women, racking his brain but unable to recall ever having such persons in the Three Great Palaces.

It was Shen Kun’s niece, on the other hand, who kept her eyes on Ye Qingzi wearing the purple veil. After a moment, she suddenly came to a realization and exclaimed, “You…you are Ye…”

Ye Qingzi reacted promptly, interrupting her and saying, “Shen Yue, what are you doing here?”

As she finished speaking, Ye Qingzi immediately used her Mental Sound to tell Shen Yue not to reveal her identity.

Shen Yue was not slow-witted and didn’t continue saying the name, but instead told Shen Kun that the three of them were trustworthy, and there was no need to be cautious around them.

Having assuaged Shen Kun’s doubts, Shen Yue took the opportunity to size up Chu Mu and Mu Qingyi.

Chu Mu had changed his appearance, and Shen Yue naturally couldn’t recognize him. However, she wondered why Ye Qingzi was with a stranger.

And she didn’t recognize the other woman, whose whole person exuded nobility, but Shen Yue silently marveled at her ethereal temperament.

While Shen Yue was sizing up the two, Chu Mu also recognized her as Shen Mo’s sister, Shen Yue.

After parting ways in Spirit City, Shen Yue had been wandering the world with Ye Wansheng, following wherever he went. Chu Mu certainly didn’t expect to encounter her here.

This made Chu Mu even more puzzled. What was it they had said before? There was a one in ten thousand chance of meeting someone they knew, but here she was!

“Where is my brother?” Ye Qingzi asked, reasoning that if Shen Yue was here, Ye Wansheng wouldn’t be too far away.

“He’s in City of Wufang, helping with the city’s defense,” replied Shen Yue.

Ye Qingzi nodded. She was relatively assured of Ye Wansheng’s safety. He had reached High Emperor Level quite early, and there was no reason for him not to have reached Peak Emperor level unless he was fooling around with Shen Yue all day.

“So the three of you are friends of Ye Wansheng. Are you here to lend a helping hand to our Three Great Palaces as well? If we could have the assistance of such experts, it would be greatly appreciated indeed!” Shen Kun, evidently understanding the implication, quickly responded courteously.

With the other party arriving with two Peak Emperor creatures, it was clear that these three were extraordinary. How could Shen Kun not be courteous!

Chu Mu was worrying about how to explain their identities, but since Shen Kun had already given them one, he simply went along with it.

“We happened to be on our way to Spring City to fetch something and thought we might as well help you take the city,” Chu Mu said.

The deputy officers and several team leaders were stunned when they heard Chu Mu’s words, their expressions rigid.

“Listen to what he just said, ‘we might as well help you take the city,’ as if it’s just a trivial thing…” one of the deputy officers muttered under his breath.

“If I had two Peak Emperor creatures, I’d dare to say the same!” remarked one young deputy officer.

“But do you have them? Look at the two beauties by their side. I bet their faces are as stunning as their figures!” another deputy officer commented.

“Uh…no, impossible in this lifetime!” the young deputy officer laughed bitterly.

What a joke, most people here don’t even have an Emperor-level Soul Pet to their name, let alone a Peak Emperor-grade one.

(Here’s what to watch for:

Just like yesterday~~~~~ If there’s a notice before midnight that there won’t be an update, then there will be only two chapters today. If there’s no notice of a single chapter, then that means there will definitely be a third chapter today~~~~~ Ah, torn between wanting to catch a breath and striving for first place in monthly tickets, what a complex feeling~~~~~)

(No matter if Little Fish is catching his breath or not, we’re only 10 votes away from ranking 4th in the category list!! Let’s help Little Fish out!!) (To be continued.
