Chapter 1310 - Chapter 1310 Chapter 1174 Escape from Wen City
Chapter 1310: Chapter 1174: Escape from Wen City Chapter 1310: Chapter 1174: Escape from Wen City Chu Mu remained indifferent to the sight of her, as the Good and Evil Queen’s Temptation aura was much stronger than Yu Suo’s. If one harbored even the slightest wavering thought, it was likely that they’d fall into her trap and be unable to extricate themselves, and then it would be hard to say who would be whose master.
“We need to break out, no more dallying here,” Chu Mu said after glancing at the Stone Wing Dragon, which had already been injured.
Bai Yu, Mu Qingyi, and Ye Wansheng nodded, no longer intending to continue the fight.
Mo Ye ran at the forefront of the team, sweeping up a Demonic Cloud wherever it passed. Its massive tail whipped through the Dominator-level powerhouses before them, flinging any approaching enemies far away with a single stroke of its tail.
With the Stone Wing Dragon out of the picture, Mo Ye was unstoppable in Wen City. It charged ahead, and there was nothing to make Mo Ye stop in its tracks.
Wan Meng, Lin Li, and the others didn’t give up, still commanding the Commerce Association and the Dark Brown Hunters to block their path.
“Boundary Commander Wu Zhen, what are you thinking about? They’re about to escape!” Wan Meng shouted frantically.
This time, both Wan Meng and Lin Li had invested heavily. If they couldn’t capture that Intermediate Lord Level Demon Spirit, they had no idea how to report to the Divine Sect, especially after losing half of their Dark Brown Hunters.
“Haven’t you two seen the strength of that Nine-tailed creature!” Wu Zhen’s face darkened. Since when had these two men the right to yell at him?
If he could have captured the Intermediate Lord Level Demon Spirit, he would have risked it all. But the issue was that the Nine-tailed creature was too strong, and with the appearance of that Flower type creature that could manipulate Quasi-Dominators, continued fighting might not end up with their enemy being wiped out, but their own forces instead.
“So…we just let them go like that?” Wan Meng was practically stunned.
The Light Web alone had cost him a fortune, let alone the Dark Brown Hunters, which were all baited with captured Demon Spirits. Now those Demon Spirits were scattered throughout the entire city and would undoubtedly suffer great losses.
Even if he recaptured all of them, it would hardly make up for his losses. Both Wan Meng and Lin Li were all too aware that a failure this time might likely result in them being demoted a rank!
“My Battle Demon Zhe Dragon is in Guangtong Fortress. If it were here, they wouldn’t be able to escape!” Boundary Commander Wu Zhen gritted his teeth and spoke with irritation.
It was of no use to say this now. Boundary Commander Wu Zhen could only watch helplessly as those few people gradually made their way toward the Outer City.
Wan Meng and Lin Li were still persistent in their pursuit. They couldn’t afford the loss. Despite now having more than half of the Dominator-level powerhouses lose their combat capabilities due to the Flower Soul Control, they still followed for a great distance.
Both Wan Meng and Lin Li were pure merchants. Except for their bodyguards being somewhat useful, they were practically useless against Dominator-level beings. No matter how much they chased, it was futile, and they were gradually left far behind by Chu Mu and his group.
“General Peng, General Peng, stop them at all costs!” Lin Li, nearing the city walls, screamed at General Peng, who was in charge of sealing the city, using his Mental Sound.
General Peng was positioned at the City walls, with an elite army of about ten thousand from Wen City, lined up along the wall.
At the chairman Lin Li’s request to seal the city, the Wen City Lord also issued the City Order. Thus, since the sealing began, not a single person or Soul Pet had left the city.
Although the city had been sealed, it was thrown into chaos by the Demon Spirits. The Dominator-level powerhouses had terrifying combat capabilities by nature; as hundreds of them began to fly around the city suddenly, even General Peng, commanding thousands of troops, could do nothing about it.
General Peng saw everything that happened within the city, and knowing that even the strongest person in Wen City couldn’t stop them, there was no meaning in his army trying to block them.
Indeed, if the army could band together, they might pose a significant threat to a Dominator-level creature. However, that army might also be wiped out by the might of Dominator-level strength. As a city defender, it was his duty to weigh the pros and cons rather than blindly follow orders, because if the army was lost, the city’s stability could no longer be guaranteed.
General Peng didn’t order the army to be on alert, and the lined-up soldiers on the city walls didn’t dare to make a move without receiving orders.
More importantly, they knew very well that the creature that had defeated the Stone Wing Dragon was not something they could contend with.
“Swoosh swoosh swoosh~~~~~~~~~~”
Nine majestic tails swept over General Peng’s head as they flew by, their mountain-like grandeur leaving both General Peng and the soldiers for miles around completely stunned.
From a distance, they had already been enormously shocked, but now that this powerful creature was flying right over their heads, that awe was even more crushing, as if their very hearts were being squeezed.
The soldiers froze in place, too scared to move, their breaths seemingly stopping in that moment.
After an eternity, as the long, dragon-like tails finally passed by, a vast number of soldiers went limp on the city walls, shaking uncontrollably and drenched in cold sweat.
Not even the Stone Wing Dragon had brought such a sense of oppression. General Peng, watching his subordinates nearly faint, struggled to lift his head and took another look at the Silver Masked man who was riding on the Nine-tailed creature.
For some reason, General Peng felt that man’s silhouette seemed familiar…

“You… why didn’t you stop them? Is the seal order just for show? Do you realize what their escape with the Demon Spirit means? The entire Wen City is not even worth a hair of that Demon Spirit!” Lin Li yelled almost frantically.
It had run away. The Dominator Level Demon Spirit had escaped like that, a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity that could have catapulted him to great heights just slipped through his fingers. The vast contrast between that initial fervor and the current loss was enormous.
General Peng did not care about Lin Li’s roar and merely said indifferently, “We have done our duty. In your eyes, Wen City is worth less than a hair of that Demon Spirit, but in my eyes, the lives of my subordinates and the stability of Wen City outweigh everything else. Chairman Lin, if you want to recover the Demon Spirit, do it quickly. The city seal will not last for long, and Wen City cannot afford to keep out those who have traveled thousands of miles to return and the Soul Pet Masters who wish to fight for Wen City.”
Lin Li’s face turned black immediately, but he couldn’t say a word now, only staring venomously at the figures disappearing into the distance.
As for Wan Meng, whose loss was the greatest, his face was equally ashen, greasy flesh on his face trembling slightly.
However, this guy was still rational and ordered the Dark Brown Hunters to start a city-wide search, recovering all the Demon Spirits, as they were, after all, purchased with his money.
…
…
After leaving the city, Chu Mu and the others did not travel far since Ye Qingzi and Morning Crown Prince were still inside Wen City.
“Is everyone alright?” Chu Mu scanned the group, wanting to know if anyone was injured or had lost a Soul Pet.
Mu Qingyi, Ye Wansheng, and Bai Yu shook their heads, then all their gazes turned towards Ghost Jinrou.
Ghost Jinrou looked somewhat worried, her eyes occasionally glancing towards the city.
Chu Mu knew that Ghost Jinrou must have gotten some memories from the Dominator Demon Spirit and was worried about those trapped within the city. However, the fact that they had managed to help Ghost Jinrou escape was no small feat, and the chance of rescuing the other Demon Spirits was slim.
“This Demon Spirit, it’s not ordinarily stupid,” the Good and Evil Queen remarked with a glance at Ghost Jinrou.
Dominator-level creatures are very, very high-grade, and she called this Demon Spirit stupid because it, a creature with the power to read minds and immense mental strength, couldn’t even see through such a simple trick.
Ghost Jinrou had no intention of speaking to the woman, and she very well knew it was not that the Dominator Demon Spirit hadn’t seen through Wan Meng and Lin Li’s scheme but rather that even knowing it was a trap, it still took the risk to try and rescue the other Demon Spirits.
Unfortunately, it had failed, almost at the cost of its own life.
…
After waiting for about three days, the seal order was finally lifted.
Ye Qingzi found Chu Mu through the couple’s rings and reunited with them.
“Most of the Demon Spirits have been recaptured, but that nouveau riche Wan Meng has bought all of them and plans to auction them off in Cloud City,” Ye Qingzi said.
“That pig isn’t planning to lure the Dominator Demon Spirit again, is he?” Ye Wansheng said.
“Possibly, he is likely very aware that the Dominator Demon Spirit intends to rescue those Demon Spirits,” Chu Mu said.
“That Emperor-level Demon Spirit is a Home Seeker of the Demon Spirit Clan,” Ghost Jinrou spoke up.
“What’s a Home Seeker?” everyone asked, puzzled.
At this moment, Master Li stroked his beard and said proudly, “Wandering races are not suited to live in the same area for a long time. Demon Spirits belong to such races. They constantly migrate, migrating endlessly… The so-called Home Seekers are members who can find the most suitable habitats for them. There aren’t many of these members, yet the places where Demon Spirits reside have very high requirements, so they can continue to thrive. Otherwise, their special race faces extinction.”
“Nowadays, the number of Demon Spirits is decreasing. The Demon Spirit that signed a soul contract with the Little Princess is probably one of the few remaining of the Demon Spirit Clan. If it is a leader, then a Home Seeker must exist, otherwise, the remaining Demon Spirits will never find a suitable habitat. I think that pig must have known that this Emperor Spirit guessed the Emperor Demon Spirit being auctioned is a Home Seeker, so he started by buying at a high price and once again threw out bait for the Dominator Demon Spirit to appear, trap or not.”
Ghost Jinrou nodded firmly, as what Master Li had said was exactly what the Dominator Demon Spirit felt.
“It says that if we can help rescue the Home Seeker, it will select some exemplary Emperor Demon Spirits for you to sign soul contracts with,” Ghost Jinrou said.
The value of one Emperor-level Demon Spirit is close to an Intermediate Lord Level, and moreover, choosing excellent Emperor Demon Spirits to sign soul contracts was quite tempting.
Princess Rou looked at Chu Mu, as if reading his inner thoughts, and continued, “It also has some Xuan Objects that the Little Hiding Dragon might need…”
