Supreme Tamer
Chapter 1264 - Chapter 1264 Chapter 1128 Private Territory

Chapter 1264: Chapter 1128: Private Territory Chapter 1264: Chapter 1128: Private Territory Zheng Tuo noticed the unfriendliness between this King Chu and the locals.

However, Zheng Tuo was clearly not as foolish as Li Kuangdeng. At least he admitted that when he first arrived here, he had indeed looked down on the local people, a stance of arrogance that the natives would not accept.

“Let’s go,” Zheng Tuo said after glancing at the several corpses and then at the three people behind him.

The three now felt wary of Chu Mu, being outsiders themselves. If they really angered him, they might end up like Li Kuangdeng and his four companions.

Chu Mu did not stop them, allowing them to leave.

…

“Chu Mu, could these people also have other motives?” Mu Qingyi whispered, looking at the four from outside the Dark Sky Sea World.

“They shouldn’t,” Chu Mu waved his hand.

They were here to protect this place, which was actually a good thing. However, their attitude was something no one could accept. Chu Mu didn’t kill them, simply because he didn’t want to spoil Ning Man’er’s good intentions.

Wanxiang City was once again calm, but the presence of external forces still made the Three Great Palaces uneasy.

The Three Great Palaces were now hesitating whether to disclose the situation of the outer world. Past rulers had practiced information blockage, including sealing incidents regarding external forces, which had its pros and cons of being undisclosed.

The pros were obviously that it could provide people of the New Moon Land with higher ambitions and awareness of a racial crisis; the cons were that this could trigger a frightful turmoil, as no one would accept being considered inferior.

…

Chu Mu couldn’t decide on this matter; he was not a qualified ruler himself. Everything was still to be decided by Liu Binglan.

Liu Binglan had some uncertain speculations about matters outside Yunmen. Now that people from outside Yunmen had truly arrived, the fact of different human races was confirmed.

Since it had appeared, it was time to face it. Liu Binglan’s decision was to disclose this matter.

But she chose a somewhat milder policy, which was to disclose the information step by step.

That is, first to let the people of the World Realm and Wanxiang Realm know that beyond the Forbidden Domain there were indeed human territories. Then gradually spread some hard-to-accept issues through some uncertain speculative news, achieving that people from the New Moon Land would go from initial doubts, to awareness, to speculation, and finally to acceptance.

Any empire, to become more prosperous and strong, couldn’t lack the presence of adversity. The World Realm and Wanxiang Realm were no exceptions; with the consciousness of adversity, internal strife would be significantly reduced first and foremost. The aims of the Strong Ones would be set further and longer, and with the presence of pressure, new breakthroughs would occur. Otherwise, decline would inevitably befall their race.

Liu Binglan’s decision was made with long-term consideration, because since the Sub-clan of humans existed, in several years, they would still enter here like Li Kuangdeng did. And not every era could produce someone like Chu Mu who could defeat the outsiders. By that time, this territory would still need to be defended by themselves.

…

…

A month had passed since the invasion scheme from Yunmen.

Wanxiang City continued to develop, considering that the enemy had now appeared, it was very necessary to station more Experts on the city walls of Wanxiang City.

Concerning the powerful figures from outside Heavenly Mountains, Liu Binglan had already begun to slowly spread the word, starting with the battle between Chu Mu and Li Kuangdeng, making people believe in the existence of other human territories beyond the Forbidden Domain and that they were potentially very strong.

The matter indeed caused quite a stir, and as news of it spread, it had swept through every Earth Realm and Region.

Some things must be confronted; evasion is pointless, and Chu Mu felt that Liu Binglan’s decision to go public was the right approach.

Over the past month, Chu Mu hadn’t gone anywhere, instead he started to frantically gather all sorts of information from Fox Elder about beyond the Forbidden Domain, so that he would not be clueless when he stepped onto that land.

…

“King Chu, Lan Rao from outside the Dark Sky Sea World requests an audience,” the Holy Guard respectfully performed a salute and spoke to Chu Mu, who was meditating beside the lake.

“She didn’t leave? Let her come here,” Chu Mu said indifferently.

The Holy Guard saluted again before withdrawing.

It wasn’t long before the Holy Guard brought Lan Rao over, then excused himself.

Lan Rao slightly bowed, performed a gentle salute, and said with a coquettish smile, “Thank you for granting me an audience, King Chu.”

Chu Mu glanced at Lan Rao. This woman’s ceremonious manners partly stemmed from some fear of his strength, and partly, probably from her own nature of indulging in such charming friendliness.

“Didn’t I tell you to go back?” Chu Mu did not understand why Lan Rao had stayed.

“Zheng Tuo and Ning Changqing indeed have returned. Although with King Chu’s strength, our actions were clearly unnecessary, we still had to go through the motions for the sake of formalities, wouldn’t you agree?” Lan Rao’s eyelids lowered slightly, her lips curled up, revealing a hint of charm and temptation.

“As you wish, is there something you need?” Chu Mu remained unmoved.

There are some women who seem approachable and easy to win favor, who are full of tempting allure, yet when a man is hooked and tries to pursue and gain something from such a woman, she always keeps a boundary, leaving the man neither advancing nor retreating, forever under her control.

Lan Rao was clearly this type; she liked to cast flirtatious glances at every outstanding man, especially those like Chu Mu, who were young, strong, handsome, and ambitious. She was certain that every man harbored a little cat of infidelity, which, with just a little provocation, could scratch uncontrollably.

Lan Rao, confident in her looks, figure, and charm, and with a strength at the Dominator Level, could be sure that while this King Chu probably wasn’t short of beautiful women, that didn’t mean she couldn’t make his heart itch.

Of course, Lan Rao’s primary purpose here was not to tempt King Chu, but to inform him of some matters.

“You killed Li Kuangdeng. In the eyes of the ruler here in Cloud Realm, it still lacks a governing hand. So, after about one or two years without news, the Cloud Realm will definitely send someone here, and they will send someone stronger…” Lan Rao said softly, taking small steps toward Chu Mu with each sentence, allowing him to catch the scent of her body.

“Go on,” Chu Mu said.

“So, there will always be those who will try to encroach here; although you may be able to drive all intruders out, you can’t possibly sit here all the time guarding it. There are two solutions. The first is to directly affiliate with a power, such as ours. This would be akin to acquiring a protective status for yourselves, and characters like Li Kuangdeng would definitely not dare to invade.”

“And the second method?” Chu Mu asked.

“The second method is a bit more troublesome because first, the New Moon Land is territory of Cloud Realm. If you don’t want to be governed, you’d have to become independent. The only way to independence is to go through the Divine Sect, informing the people there that the New Moon Land is your private territory. The Divine Sect will verify through various means that you’re the universally recognized king of this territory, and that more than two-thirds of Soul Emperors in this territory want independence, then the New Moon Land will be severed from Cloud Realm.”

Lan Rao said, glancing at Chu Mu, seeing that he remained calm and composed, she was slightly disappointed and continued, “You must understand that when your territory unexpectedly declares independence, it would undoubtedly provoke a desire to reclaim it by force. So, the moment you declare the intention to make this land independent, you will face the wrath of the Cloud Realm’s ruler.”

“According to Divine Sect regulations, once a territory chooses independence, the original owner is entitled to reclaim it. Both parties can engage directly in a non-siege battle involving 1 million forces. If the side seeking independence wins, they will not suffer any invasions from external powers for ten years. If the original owner wins, they reclaim the territory and can inflict any punishment except slaughter, such as enslaving you all…”
