Supreme Tamer
Chapter 1236 - Chapter 1236 Chapter 1100 Tears of Pride

Chapter 1236: Chapter 1100: Tears of Pride Chapter 1236: Chapter 1100: Tears of Pride Ye Qingzi and Liu Binglan were already aware of the situation, but everyone else was clueless, including Wu Kuang and Lian Yan who had their souls sealed and were kneeling on the ground, completely dumbfounded!

Could that woman, at once holy, elegant, perfect, and yet charming, mysterious, and terrifying, truly be Chu Mu’s Soul Pet?

This was more inconceivable than an Emperor-level soul pet undergoing a race mutation!

All had witnessed the moment Chu Mu recalled her into his Soul Pet Space just now, the unique patterns and spells of a Soul Pet Soul Contract are hard to mimic through other means. When Chu Mu summoned her back there was no concealment, they saw it all with their very own eyes!

“Chu… Brother Chu, is that… is that Good and Evil Queen really your Soul Pet?” Chao Lengchuan felt his entire worldview being overturned!

The terror of the Good and Evil Queen left those from the Three Great Palaces and Soul Covenant feeling apprehensive, and her allure and stunning beauty seemed as if they belonged to the heavens alone. Such a blend of sanctity, wickedness, allure, and evil in this female demon was actually a Soul Pet, and moreover, one that had signed a soul contract with Chu Mu…

“Indeed, a long time ago I saved her, and she signed a Soul Pact with me before fleeing. In fact, when I learned she had become an Empress and was masking her duplicity to win over hearts, I was surprised too. But I believe that until I defeat her, if I called her a monster, probably no one would believe me,” Chu Mu said.

Indeed, without Chu Mu recalling her to his Soul Pet Space, using this most direct method to prove that she had signed a soul contract with him, who would believe that a goddess of both good and evil was a Soul Pet?

“It seems we now have three of our kind,” Bai Yu said with a wry smile, looking at Chu Mu.

Both Chu Mu and Bai Yu were half-demons, and to understand the Good and Evil Queen from a half-demon’s perspective did indeed make it somewhat more comprehensible.

However, the Elders were clearly still wary of the Good and Evil Queen.

It was previously unthinkable that the beloved Empress, adored by many, would be the mastermind behind the entire war. Her deception was far too profound, and with her strength unchallenged, releasing her would be an utter disaster capable of bringing calamity upon the Human Domain.

For such a world-threatening disaster, there had been a few occurrences in the Human Domain, but they always ended up sealed away in the Sleeping World of World City or in the highest levels of the Seal Tower, sealed for hundreds or thousands of years, to allow people to calm their fears.

“The Seal Tower’s energy has been absorbed by her quite a bit. It will need to be reinforced for a long time, lest those sealed creatures stir up a rebellion. We certainly can’t seal the Good and Evil Queen within the Seal Tower. Now, the only one able to restrain the Good and Evil Queen is Chu Mu’s Netherworld Fox Monarch Zi Di. Under his watch, there shouldn’t be any accidents,” Fox Elder stated.

At the mention of Netherworld Fox Monarch Zi Di, everyone nodded in agreement.

“Indeed, the Good and Evil Queen is a Floral Ancestor, and we probably won’t find any force that can shatter her spirit,” Jiang Demon Emperor nodded and addressed Chu Mu: “Just make sure she doesn’t escape, otherwise we’ll face another disaster.”

“With Mo Ye now, I can subdue her. Once my strength reaches the Soul Master level, my Soul Pact will be an everlasting shackle for her,” Chu Mu declared.

A Nine Thoughts Soul Emperor could control soul pets up to Low-grade Master level, and due to his half-demon nature, Chu Mu’s strength had already surpassed the Low-grade Master level. Thus, he could effectively control any soul pets below the Intermediate Master level. Once he reached the Soul Master level, even if Empress Yu Suo transformed into the Good and Evil Queen, she wouldn’t be able to resist being drawn back into his Soul Pet Space.

“That’s true, but reaching the Soul Master level…” Elder Liu trailed off.

In truth, everyone understood that the Soul Master level was merely a legend, with Liu Binglan being the only known person to have reached it in the human domain.

Even the powerful Alliance Master Ling Chan, who could cover the sky with one hand, hadn’t stepped into the Soul Master level, so it would be incredibly difficult for Chu Mu to achieve it.

It wasn’t that Elder Liu doubted Chu Mu’s ability, but the Nine Thoughts Soul Emperor threshold seemed to be an impassable barrier for humans. There had been individuals stronger than Ling Chan in history, but it seemed they too hadn’t crossed it. This leap beyond the Heavenly Hidden seemed unrelated to strength.

“Let’s talk about these things later. The situation is still chaotic right now,” Liu Binglan cut off further discussion on the topic.

Liu Binglan’s primary concern was for Chu Mu. Both he and his Soul Pets had fought until exhaustion, and seeing Chu Mu’s body covered in ghastly wounds that had yet to fully heal made her heart ache. He had sacrificed too much for the victory in this battle, and now that everything had finally settled, he needed to rest.

“Let’s head back to Xiangrong City first. There are more resources there, and I can gather more healing potions to help everyone recover faster,” Ye Qingzi proposed.

The two women most concerned about Chu Mu were them, and Ye Qingzi believed Chu Mu’s ability to stand was solely based on his formidable willpower. Continuing like this would place an irreconcilable burden on his body.

Everyone indeed needed rest. Chu Mu glanced at Dream of Oblivion, who still retained most of his combat power, and with a smile said, “Take us back to Xiangrong City.”

Dream of Oblivion’s flying speed was extremely fast, so the journey from Wanxiang City to Xiangrong City shouldn’t take too long.

After Dream of Oblivion descended in front of Chu Mu, he instructed those with severe injuries and their Soul Pets to board Dream of Oblivion.

With everyone aboard Dream of Oblivion, Chu Mu noticed Liu Binglan standing aside, staring absently at the utterly defeated city.

Chu Mu walked over to Liu Binglan and asked, “Mom, what’s wrong?”

Liu Binglan shook her head, her tired eyes seeming to flicker with something as she muttered, “If I had realized earlier that she had signed a soul contract with you and intruded into our human domain, perhaps we wouldn’t be in the situation we are in today. If only I had been stronger, the carnage within the Three Great Palaces might have been less severe…”

“The discord between the Soul Covenant and the Three Great Palaces has always been there, and it was bound to erupt one day. This is an era changing; nobody can stop it,” Chu Mu said.

His conversations with Old Man Han had led Chu Mu to understand the true nature of things. Just as Chu Tianmang was the instigator in the Sealing incident, even without the discord between Chu Tianmang and Alliance Master Ling Chan, that conflict would have been sparked by someone eventually.

For ten thousand years of humanity, through the transitions of the ages, perhaps the establishment of the Three Great Palaces also went through such a bloody battle. And perhaps after having maintained their position for some years, new forces might emerge, aspiring to replace them, calling themselves “Soul Covenant” or “Palace.”

Old Man Han’s words made Chu Mu realize that the transition of eras was built on bloodshed and sacrifice–the fall of the old generation of strong ones and the rise of a new generation.

The last thirty years belonged to Old Man Han, Blind Old Man, and Old Lady Wen; these thirty years belonged to Alliance Master Ling Chan and the Four Heroes; the next thirty years would belong to Chu Mu, Liu Binglan, Mu Qingyi, Morning Crown Prince, and Bai Yu.

Eras change, and an individual’s strength can only hasten or delay this change. Everyone has their birth, aging, sickness, and death; every Soul Pet has its peak and its decline. No one can be eternal, not a thousand-years-old power, not a ten-thousand-years-old race, not even more ancient empires…

Chu Mu never imagined that he could influence the rise and fall of the entire human race, nor did he expect to find himself in the midst of the greatest conflicts of humanity. If not for the safety of Liu Binglan, if not for the ties of those older generations, if not for Empress Yu Suo’s ambitions, Alliance Master Ling Chan’s aggressiveness, he would have spent more time with his Soul Pets, journeying towards more mysterious and distant realms of the Soul Pets World, reaching the highest domain he could, then gradually stepping off from the ravaging stage…

Liu Binglan looked at Chu Mu, his words revealing his mindset to her–a mindset that, like his current strength, had already genuinely transcended the mundane world.

What was truly priceless was that he didn’t look upon this vastly changing and insignificant world with a lofty attitude. He immersed himself in it, yet perceived the essence of the mundane world.

Chu Mu’s maturity and mentality awoke Liu Binglan to new realizations and surprises.

“No matter what, you’ve protected the most important things for your mother. I couldn’t give you anything, yet you have to make sacrifices for me,” Liu Binglan said with a low, embarrassed voice.

In World City, when Liu Binglan watched Chu Mu save the city and become demonized himself, she silently vowed to become stronger, so she wouldn’t lose what she protected, so that those she cherished wouldn’t leave her.

Yet, in the battle of Wanxiang City, she still felt it was Chu Mu fighting alone with his life, unable to help at all. As a mother, how could Liu Binglan forgive her own helplessness when she saw her child covered in wounds and blood, seen his Soul Pets bleeding to protect the Three Great Palaces?

“If he could see everything you’ve done, he would proudly shed tears,” Liu Binglan finally said, her eyes shimmering.

Chu Mu knew who Liu Binglan meant by “he.”

With the conflicts ended and the greatest enemy defeated, where would that old man who set foot on the path of cultivation at the same time as he, now carrying countless heartaches, be?

In front of his mother, Liu Binglan, Chu Mu could be the mature and rational man who took responsibility for everything, but in front of his father, Chu Tianmang, Chu Mu felt that he would always be a child. The carefree, comfortable memories of his childhood couldn’t be forgotten. His father was his teacher, his friend with no generation gap, someone Chu Mu deeply respected and admired, a strong person, and a father with incredibly deep emotions. No matter how high he stood or how far he walked, his father’s figure remained as grand as ever in the depths of Chu Mu’s heart…

He had placed immense hopes in him, had been despondent for his inability to become a Soul Pet Master, had wept bitterly for his disappearance and death.

And now that he had re-entered the path of a Soul Pet Master, survived from a cruel environment, grew stronger, and even defeated the greatest enemy who once brought immense hatred to his father…

Would all he had done, like Liu Binglan suggested, make him proud to the point of tears?
