Chapter 642: Chapter 513: Chu Mu, the Person Who Is Just Too Honest

Watching the last prisoner die miserably under Chu Mu’s Nine-tailed Flame Fox’s Crown Flame, Ting Lan remained emotionless.

Regardless of how many prisoners were killed, it couldn’t calm her heart, nor bring Li Zhan back to life. Thinking this, she hurriedly rode her Winged Soul Pet and flew towards the location of the huge cavern that had been blasted open, wanting to retrieve Li Zhan’s body.

Chu Mu didn’t say much and collected all the prisoner rings taken from the prisoners.

Four Eighth Level Prisoners, twelve Seventh Level Prisoners, that adds up to a total of 1.4 billion worth!!

“Qingzi, Qingzi!!” Suddenly, Ting Lan’s anxious voice came.

“What’s wrong?” Ye Qingzi asked.

Back in Soul Hall, Ye Qingzi had met Ting Lan, and had accompanied her to visit Lin Yin Holy Land once. Ting Lan had also helped Ye Qingzi obtain various medicinal herbs that Soul Hall did not sell.

“Li Zhan… Li Zhan, he seems… seems to be alive…” Ting Lan’s voice was filled with uncontrollable joy!

Ye Qingzi was stunned, and immediately ran towards Ting Lan’s location with Water Moon and Pan Wood Spirit.

Ting Lan was letting her Soul Pet move the rocks that had fallen on Li Zhan. Soon, Li Zhan’s body, which had decayed like a rotting corpse, appeared under the mud.

By a very lucky chance, Li Zhan’s skull was exactly between the crevices of two large rocks, which protected his head.

When Ye Qingzi came with Water Moon and Pan Wood Spirit, Ting Lan had already dug Li Zhan out. In front of Li Zhan, many bloody armors were scattered. These armors belonged to Li Zhan’s defensive Armored Beast.

There was no sign of this Armored Beast’s corpse. It seemed it had been blown to pieces by the prisoners in the previous attacks. Perhaps it was this Armored Beast’s sacrifice that allowed its master to survive with a last breath.

Li Zhan’s body was severely decayed, both of his arms nearly broken, and his right chest was exploded into a bloody hole. If this blood hole had spread a little further to the left, Li Zhan’s heart would have been shattered.

There was an extremely faint starlight on Li Zhan’s body, which was the effect of the Eighth level Soul Armor.

“His soul is dispersing.” Ye Qingzi’s face took on a solemn expression. The dispersing Soul Armor’s light meant that the Soul Armor had been completely shattered. On the other hand, it also indicated that the soul was dying since the Soul Armor was attached to the soul.

Ting Lan’s eyes turned red again, she could only watch Ye Qingzi with her eyes, hoping Ye Qingzi could save Li Zhan.

Chu Mu and Shang Heng also walked over and Chu Mu looked at the frightening wounds on Li Zhan’s body.

Under normal circumstances, such injuries would mean certain death, but Li Zhan’s vitality was very tenacious and he hadn’t died yet.

“I need to let Lingyin Qie’s Healing Soul Bud heal his soul.” Ye Qingzi couldn’t guarantee if she could save Li Zhan either, as his injuries were too severe and many parts would require long-term treatment to fully recover. When such a series of serious injuries fell on one body, it was indeed a miracle to survive till now.

After speaking, Ye Qingzi withdrew Pan Wood Spirit into her Soul Pet Space and summoned Lingyin Qie, her flower type Soul Pet.

Lingyin Qie was captured by Chu Mu in Yuan Forest when he was fighting the ancient demon. Since Ye Qingzi needed such a flower type Soul Pet, it became Ye Qingzi’s Soul Pet.

Lingyin Qie’s attack power is almost zero. This Soul Pet is purely for healing and support. Its healing ability is even more powerful than Ye Qingzi’s Water Moon, especially when the soul is damaged.

“I’ll go check around for any hidden dangers. It’s very unusual for these prisoners to gather together like this.” Chu Mu said.

Chu Mu couldn’t help with saving people, so standing here would be of no use.

“Be careful.” Ye Qingzi nodded, and then began to chant a spell. She started to use the Soul Gathering Soul Skill to prevent Li Zhan’s soul from dispersing.

…

“Woo woo woo woo~~~~~~~~”

After the battle ended, Mo Xie’s body burned with Crown Flames, gradually transforming into a petite, exquisite figure. She jumped lightly onto Chu Mu’s shoulder, with eight tails drooping down his shoulder and one curled around his neck…

Chu Lian’s state allowed Mo Xie to conserve strength while also recovering faster. Furthermore, Little Mo Xie liked to lie on Chu Mu’s shoulder, either dozing off or staring with spiritual eyes, observing their surroundings.

Most of the prisoners were scattered by the race members, at different times or locations. A team like Cai Ji and others formed earlier was already considered sizable.

However, there were nearly 20 prisoners here, including those killed by Shang Heng, Li Zhan, and Ting Lan. Such scale of gathering was almost unstoppable, and their appearance was very strange.

“If they can gather so many people, does it mean there is a prisoner with a very strong power to deter these people? Otherwise, with the nature of the prisoners, how can they form a group of nearly twenty people?” Chu Mu speculated.

Prisoners are selfish. Twenty people gathered together means they must take down nearly 100 contestants to reduce their sentences. This is almost impossible to achieve, so the reason why they would gather like this might be because of a certain individual.

This quickly made Chu Mu think of the corpse on the mountain road a few days ago. Could it be because of that unfathomable prisoner?

The strength of these 20 prisoners was not extraordinary, at least none of them were stronger than Cai Ji. Chu Mu specially searched the surroundings but did not find that prisoner’s figure, it seemed that he was not among these prisoners.

Of course, if these prisoners gathered together because of this person, he must be nearby but temporarily unaware of the situation here, or perhaps, he knew that the competition guards would be arriving soon, so he dared not approach this place again.

After confirming that everything around him was safe, Chu Mu quickly returned to the bottom of the cliff.

When Chu Mu returned, Ye Qingzi’s basic treatment for Li Zhan had already ended. What surprised Chu Mu was that this guy with tenacious vitality actually woke up in a daze.

“He has taken quite a few spirit items to strengthen himself, so his vitality is several times stronger than ordinary soul pet masters. His soul is in a very weak state right now. My Lingyin Qie can only help his soul recover a bit, but to fully heal him and remove any threats, we’ll need a Healing Soul Bud and Soul Nurturing Dew…” Ye Qingzi told Shang Heng and Ting Lan.

Ting Lan nodded heavily. Seeing Li Zhan slowly opening his eyes, she choked and couldn’t speak, but her tears kept flowing.

Li Zhan’s consciousness was not very clear, but seeing Ting Lan safe and sound, he barely cracked a pale smile.

Then, Li Zhan seemed to think of something, and his expression became tense again. He asked in a very, very weak voice, “Those… those prisoners… ”

“Don’t worry, those prisoners have all been killed by Chu Chen.” Shang Heng said with a smile.

“Chu… Chu Chen?” Asked Li Zhan weakly.

“Yes, Chu Chen and Ye Qingzi saved us.” Ting Lan said.

Li Zhan’s expression was stiff, but one could still see the astonishment in his eyes!

He naturally didn’t know why Chu Chen would suddenly possess such strength to kill 16 prisoners. Before this, Li Zhan didn’t even consider the well-known Chu Chen as a competitor!

The real powerhouses among the second-tier of Soul Hall were Fang Ze and Luo Bing. Li Zhan’s strength was slightly weak and ranked third, almost untouchable by anyone. If Chu Chen and Ye Qingzi could kill so many prisoners, it could only mean that Chu Chen’s strength had possibly reached the level of Luo Bing or Young Master Fang Ze.

“Why… why did you… come to save us?” In addition to being surprised by Chu Mu’s strength, Li Zhan didn’t understand why they would risk their lives to fight so many enemies just for him, who was almost dead. After all, even members of the same faction could ultimately become cruel enemies in The World Decree.

When Li Zhan asked this, Ting Lan’s watery eyes also looked at Chu Mu. This was already the second time Chu Mu had saved her, and words of thanks were not enough to express her gratitude to Chu Mu.

“This is Chu Chen’s character! Also, it is the spirit and purpose of our Soul Hall. Regardless of whether we are in The World Decree or not, if our fellow members are in trouble, he will definitely lend a helping hand…” Shang Heng said with a smile, patting Chu Mu’s shoulder.

Chu Mu didn’t care, and simply said, “Four level 8 prisoners, twelve level 7 prisoners, a total of 1.4 billion, I need a huge sum of money to strengthen my Soul Pets.”

After hearing Chu Mu’s careless words, Shang Heng was stunned. Could it be that Chu Mu’s reason for helping was because of the large amount of money in the Prisoner Rings?

Ting Lan also blinked her beautiful eyes at Chu Mu.

Ting Lan found that Chu Mu had a big flaw – he was too honest!

Even if he came for the money, there was no need to say it out loud. Just like last time in the Wind-binding Hall, when he pulled the Wind-binding Spirit back, if Chu Mu didn’t say he wanted the spirit, Ting Lan would certainly be touched by his actions.

Ye Qingzi also smiled gently, using her Soul Sense to tell Chu Mu, “Why not take both fame and fortune? I heard from Ting Lan that you were like this last time too… ”

Chu Mu turned his head to look at the charmingly smiling Ye Qingzi and said with a smile, “Except for you, I won’t be so dedicated to anyone else for free… ”

“Stop being frivolous.” Ye Qingzi’s cheeks flushed with embarrassment, not daring to look into Chu Mu’s bright eyes.

…

“Huhuhuhuhu~~~~~~~~~~~~”

A chaotic airflow rolled down from the sky, followed by a huge shadow that enveloped the heads of several people.

“The competition guard is here.” Shang Heng looked up and saw the competition guard dressed in silver armor.

The competition guard was astonished to see the corpses all around. He quickly ordered his Winged Soul Pet to land in front of Chu Mu and the others.

“Did you guys kill all these?” The competition guard asked in surprise.

There were nearly 30 soul pet corpses here, all of the tenth-rank commander level. He couldn’t believe that just a few people managed to kill so many Soul Pets. Even he, as a competition guard, wasn’t confident that he could handle so many alone! (.)
