Supreme Tamer
Chapter 1494 - Chapter 1494 Chapter 1354 Invisible Kingdom

Chapter 1494: Chapter 1354 Invisible Kingdom Chapter 1494: Chapter 1354 Invisible Kingdom Piquing Tang Zhuo’s anger was something Yu Suo would naturally perfect. In fact, her coldness towards Tang Zhuo, Xin Xin, and Han Erxing yesterday had definitely caused some psychological impact on those proud individuals. All Chu Mu had to do next was to stand beside Lady Yu on the final day of the competition, watching Tang Zhuo with disdain, then everything would naturally fall into place.

Of course, Yu Suo was a cautious person. If her provocation didn’t yield results, she had other plans ready, but she would definitely force Tang Zhuo into a duel with Chu Mu, and it would be a public spectacle!

After Chu Mu stepped out of the garden, both Li Qingqing and Huang Yufei’s expressions changed upon seeing him!

They couldn’t fathom how Chu Mu had garnered Lady Yu’s favor, especially when figures like Tang Zhuo, Xin Xin, and Han Erxing, who were notable figures in the Struggle Land, had been utterly ignored by her.

Of course, Chu Mu wouldn’t reveal the truth to them. A mysterious smile was sufficient, leaving the rest for them to guess.

…

Not long after Chu Mu left the garden, Lady Gao elegantly approached, still not recovered from her astonishment.

Yu Suo knew that Lady Gao hadn’t left, and as her loyalty was already sufficient, Yu Suo didn’t mind her witnessing what had just occurred.

“Saintess, just now, that person was…” Lady Gao didn’t know how to address him, a master’s master, that title was truly hard to define.

“Have Gao He stay by his side, and whatever he instructs Gao He to do,” Yu Suo didn’t elaborate further.

Gao He was Lady Gao’s nephew and also one of the strong contenders in this final Outstanding Competition.

Lady Gao had no other heirs but had always valued her nephew Gao He highly, always hoping to push him to a higher position.

Gao He was indeed promising, having advanced to the final competition. Lady Gao had initially planned, after Gao He finished the event, to have the Saintess introduce him to a high position.

Unexpectedly, the Saintess asked Gao He to stay by Chu Mu’s side, evidently to serve as his attendant.

What position could an attendant hold? Initially, Lady Gao felt some disappointment, but upon further thought, even Lady Yu was subordinate to that man. If Gao He could gain that man’s favor, once his kingdom expanded, he would undoubtedly achieve a high rank. With that thought, Lady Gao immediately beamed with joy.

Lady Gao held a very high POSITION in the Struggle Capital, but compared to those leader-level figures, she still lagged a bit.

Now that Lady Yu’s kingdom was still in its infancy and Lady Gao’s current strength couldn’t bring much benefit, Lady Gao saw its huge potential for the future. To achieve her goals, she was willing to submit to this unknown woman!

…

Chu Mu had just walked out of Guangyue Palace, and the area outside the palace was still swamped with people, all eager to catch a glimpse of Lady Yu.

Seeing the excited and anticipative faces, Chu Mu helplessly shook his head. If these people knew that their perfect goddess also had a cold, merciless side, he wondered what they would think.

Or perhaps, there is no true perfection in this world, everyone has a dark, sinful side. Those saints, fairies, goddesses fabricated in the past all had their other sides that no one knew about.

“Young Master Chu, I am Gao He,” a handsome man approached Chu Mu and politely said.

Chu Mu glanced at Gao He, slightly nodded, aware that he was sent by Yu Suo to serve him, but this servant seemed not to know his own role. Despite his humble and polite demeanor, the gleam in his eyes still vividly displayed his pride.

Everyone has their pride; how could a person without backbone possibly rise above others? It’s just that some people know how to hide it, while some easily reveal it.

“Oh, you are Gao He!” Li Qingqing excitedly exclaimed, her eyes sparkling as she stared at the handsome Gao He.

Huang Yufei was equally astonished. The entrants to the final Outstanding Competition were all prominent figures of the Struggle Land. While Gao He might not be as famous as those three, Tang Zhuo, he was still quite celebrated. Before, both Huang Yufei and Li Qingqing found it hard to exchange even a word with them, but unexpectedly, he now approached them to initiate a greeting.

Gao He maintained a smiling demeanor while greeting Li Qingqing and Huang Yufei, not saying much, just curiously sizing up Chu Mu.

He had also seen the situation where the Saintess had kept Chu Mu behind alone. Afterwards, Lady Gao had specially instructed him to treat this man with utmost respect. While Gao He readily agreed, he still harbored his own thoughts.

Why had this previously unheard-of man gained Lady Yu’s favor and why was his own aunt holding him in such high regard? He was about the same age as himself, but his STATUS seemed much higher.

…

Back in the Attic, both Lords Huang Zefeng and Li Moyu were very surprised; that silly kid Huang Yufei actually received Lady Yu’s Permanent Blessing!

Huang Yufei, beaming, had been scolded by his father for his lackluster performance in the competition; now, he could finally hold his head high!

Of course, what astonished the two Boundary Masters was that Chu Mu had the famed Gao He following him.

Gao He was Lady Gao’s nephew. Leaving aside Lady Gao’s noble status, the mere fact that Gao He could participate in the Outstanding Competition spoke volumes about his strength and position. It wouldn’t be an exaggeration to say that he was on par with the two Boundary Masters, and crucially, Gao He was still so young. His future position was surely beyond what the two lesser Boundary Masters could ever achieve.

“King Chu, it seems my son is basking in your glory. I, Huang Zefeng, am infinitely grateful.” Those who could become Boundary Masters were naturally cunning and shrewd. Upon careful consideration, Huang Zefeng realized that Huang Yufei was likely granted the Permanent Blessing due to Chu Mu’s influence.

Initially, Li Moyu hadn’t realized, but after careful deliberation, he too understood. Lady Gao was a subordinate of Lady Yu, and now Gao He was following Chu Mu. This clearly demonstrated that King Chu and Lady Yu knew each other. There was really nothing extraordinary about Huang Yufei himself. It must be tied to this young King Chu.

Li Qingqing and Huang Yufei were both baffled by this revelation.

Huang Yufei was the first to ask, “Father, why do you call Brother Chu Mu ‘King Chu’?”

Li Qingqing was also puzzle. Wasn’t Chu Mu just like them, a youngster here to gain some experience?

Rubbing his temples, Lord Huang Zefeng wondered how he ended up with a son whose brain was so dull. It was acceptable for the girls in the Li family to be slow, given that they were female and didn’t need to be too clever, but his own foundation would eventually be inherited by his son, Huang Yufei. With his foolishness, he might just ruin everything.

“This is the king of the New Moon Land, Chu Mu. Young and talented, with abilities beyond our own. Do you really think King Chu is just an aimless youngster like the two of you?” Lord Huang Zefeng reprimanded.

Huang Yufei and Li Qingqing were stunned, staring at Chu Mu in shock.

So, this guy was the king of the New Moon Land, their fathers’ equal!

They had initially believed that Liu Binglan was the queen of the New Moon Land and Chu Mu was merely a youngster she brought to gain some experience…

“Yufei, you should also be grateful to King Chu. Without him, you definitely wouldn’t have received the Saintess’ Permanent Blessing,” Li Moyu said earnestly.

“Ah?” Huang Yufei hadn’t recovered from his surprise, finding it difficult to adjust to the fact that a peer had suddenly become a figure of elder-status.

Chu Mu gestured with his hand, deeming it necessary to help, since they were allies.

Yu Suo would bestow the blessing dew upon Huang Yufei, and naturally, Chu Mu subtly signaled her with his eyes.

The Permanent Blessing was actually a racial ability awakened by Yu Suo as her strength as the Good and Evil Queen improved. While it wasn’t something she could produce in unlimited quantities, brewing a few dozen bottles wasn’t too hard for her. However, Yu Suo was intelligent; she understood the value of scarcity and strictly controlled the quantity.

Chu Mu knew she held even higher levels of Permanent Blessing. Naturally, those would be for Chu Mu himself. Before battling Tang Zhuo, he planned to retrieve it from her. Since she had absorbed a significant amount of evil aura from him to boost her strength, it was only fair that Chu Mu took something in return from her.

“What’s going on? What is your relation to Lady Yu?” Liu Binglan asked curiously upon their return to the courtyards.

“It’s Yu Suo,” Chu Mu replied.

Realization dawned on Liu Binglan; that woman truly was the best at disguising herself in the world.

“She has laid some pieces in Struggle Land. These pieces are still nascent, needing vast resources to back them. I’ll have her come talk to you about it,” Chu Mu explained.

The New Moon Land was deficient in many things now, except resources. The stores were full, and the Holy Land served like a Treasury, continuously supplying resources to the New Moon Land.

Because the New Moon Land had been in a state of complete isolation from the outside world, communicating with the outside was quite challenging. One could say the New Moon Land was now in a situation of having money with nowhere to spend it. Since Yu Suo had already placed her pieces in many places, letting the New Moon Land support these nascent pieces with resources would mean that these pieces could soon become powerful forces that might dominate the big picture.

The New Moon Land was like a warehouse, and Yu Suo’s desperate attempts to gain control over it stemmed from her need for its vast resources to nourish the seeds she had sown.

Liu Binglan nodded. Now that Yu Suo was considered one of their own, Liu Binglan saw no need to keep her guard too high against her.

“What’s your opinion on her Invisible Kingdom?” Liu Binglan inquired.

“Just like when we were in Xiangrong City and Wanxiang City, on the surface, the two cities showed no abnormalities and everything operated as usual. However, the moment her command was given, the entire city would be overrun by the dense Flower Demon Army, turning it into her Flowery Monster Kingdom.”

“Her Invisible Kingdom is the same. The number of people she controls keeps increasing, like seeds buried in the soil, growing wildly underground. One day, they will spread through the entire soil of Struggle Land… Before anyone realizes, she has already become an uncrowned queen…”

Before now, Chu Mu hadn’t made any comment about Yu Suo’s kingdom, but there was no doubt that he was shocked inside!

This woman’s ambition was truly vast!
