Chapter 981: Chapter 847: The Kill of the Dark Night

“You few, go lure over the tribe from that Mysterious Realm in the South, and make it quick!” Zhu Haoting said.

“Yes!” Several people in black cloth cloaks promptly mounted their Winged Soul Pets and flew swiftly toward the South.

“Sir, is it really necessary to go to such lengths just to kill a few people?” Zhang Zhihe remarked.

Zhang Zhihe was one of the Soul Alliance Thirty Two Traces, and he believed that he alone was sufficient to deal with Chu Fangchen. Having someone like Zhu Haoting, of Peak Emperor Level, take action did indeed seem like overkill.

“We must ensure that there is no chance of failure. Chu Fangchen must be strangled in the cradle; otherwise, he will pose a great threat to our Soul Alliance in the future!” Zhu Haoting declared.

Zhang Zhihe nodded, refraining from any further comment. His gaze, however, was fixed on the Fragrant Wood Inn, and he sneered secretly, “Chu Fangchen, you have just been too conspicuous. Those who oppose the Soul Alliance never end well!”

As night reached its latter half, the roar of beasts began to carry from afar, shattering the quiet of the village.

“Rumble rumble rumble rumble~~~~~~~~~~”

The ground and mountain ranges began to tremble, and the wooden houses swayed in response!

“What’s going on…”

“Could it be a natural disaster?”

“My God, it looks like a large group from the tribe is charging this way!”

“Then we must run for it!!”

“Tribe attack, everyone run for your lives!!”

Chaos and noise suddenly erupted throughout the entire village as the Soul Pet Trainers staying there summoned their Soul Pets and fled in every direction!

At the Fragrant Wood Inn, the attendant was frantically banging on the doors of all the guests, screaming, “Sirs, flee quickly! The tribes of the Southern Forbidden Region have launched an attack; if you don’t leave now, you won’t make it out alive!!”

Inside the room, Princess Wan Ning and Ning Man’er were sleepily rubbing their eyes, looking at Chu Mu, who had been sitting in his chair all night.

“These guys are really scheming.” Chu Mu indeed had not anticipated that they would lure a tribe here.

However, this chaos might work to his advantage; the greater the disarray, the easier it would be for Chu Mu to eliminate them.

“Young Master Chu, what’s happening?” Hearing the cries outside, Wan Ning asked, still relatively composed.

“Tribal invasion. It’s probably Zhu Chao’s men at work. Summon your Misty Immortal Bird and take us north. They will probably catch up soon,” Chu Mu replied.

Wan Ning nodded, splashed her face with cold water, and began chanting the spell to summon the Misty Immortal Bird to her side.

“Caw~~~~~~~~~~~”

The Misty Immortal Bird spread its wings and burst through the window of the wooden house, carrying Chu Mu and the two women northward.

As they left the wooden house, Chu Mu deliberately glanced back at the village and saw that the Soul Pet Tribes had reached the outskirts and were roaring at the fleeing Soul Pet Trainers with brazen ferocity.

In such a situation, no one could afford to look after anyone else. People were mounting their Soul Pets and fleeing in panic with the terrifying roars echoing behind them.

No one noticed that, as Princess Wan Ning’s Misty Immortal Bird took flight northward, several black figures followed closely, with an air of murderous intent chasing after the trio!

In the mountain range shrouded in darkness, only the undulating silhouettes could be seen. Upon these mountain ranges, with an aura of radiance, the Misty Immortal Bird was flying leisurely.

Suddenly, on a mountain ridge ahead, a huge black bird shot upward, spreading its vast wings wide like clouds in the dark night, blocking the Misty Immortal Bird’s way.

“Zhang Zhihe!” Princess Wan Ning immediately recognized the man riding the huge bird of night, one of the Soul Alliance Thirty Two Traces!

“So the Princess remembers me. Could it be that you have other feelings toward me?” Zhang Zhihe’s lips curled into an obscene smile, his eyes sleazily scanning over Princess Wan Ning’s voluptuous figure.

Zhang Zhihe had chosen not to cover his face because this time, there was no way Chu Mu and Princess Wan Ning would be able to get away!

“No need for talk, take them down!” Zhu Haoting, following behind the Misty Immortal Bird, commanded coldly.

Following Zhu Haoting’s order, other figures riding Winged Soul Pets broke out and quickly encircled Princess Wan Ning’s Misty Immortal Bird.

Princess Wan Ning glanced back at Zhu Haoting who was wearing a mask, her countenance paling a bit!

Even with Zhu Haoting attempting to conceal his identity, Princess Wan Ning could tell from his voice that this man was none other than Zhu Chao’s right-hand man—Zhu Haoting!

Zhu Haoting was a Peak Emperor level powerhouse. Princess Wan Ning had not expected Zhu Chao to send a Peak Emperor level assassin after them!

“Young Master Chu, you should escape. That man is Zhu Haoting, and you stand no chance against him!” Wan Ning, worthy of her title as a Soul Hall Princess, quickly made such a decision despite the dire circumstances.

Princess Wan Ning was well aware that Chu Fangchen’s life or death mattered much more to the Soul Hall than even her status as a princess.

“Sister, don’t be afraid. If Brother dared to do this, he must be fully confident,” Ning Man’er reassured Wan Ning.

“Oh? Utterly confident, the young lady is really naive!” Zhang Zhihe chuckled, then the Winged Soul Pet under his control transformed into a swift black cloud, lunging at Chu Mu and the two others!!

Chu Mu patted Little Mo Xie, who was lying on his shoulder, with his usual composed demeanor.

When Little Mo Xie saw so many powerful enemies, those silver eyes of hers kept spinning with excitement!

Finally able to show her true capabilities, Little Mo Xie leaped off Chu Mu’s shoulder, her hooves burning with red flame stood calmly in the Center of Darkness as if treading on flat ground.

Amongst Mo Ye’s Silver fur that fluttered wildly, a crimson flame ignited, nine long tails flailing like dragons, dancing and setting the night ablaze!

Cold eyes like swords, lightning flickering within, Mo Xie locked onto the approaching Dark Night huge bird, and with a powerful thrust of her strong hind legs, her body of red flames pounced in an instant!!

“Shua!!!!!!!!!!!!!”

The crimson Claw Blades, like a streak of crossing lightning, tore through the night sky, making a heart-stopping slash across the body of Zhang Zhihe’s Dark Night huge bird!!

With such an extreme speed of attack, the Dark Night huge bird lacked any ability to dodge and was actually ripped in half alive!

The red flames rapidly burned the giant bird to ashes along the sliced wound.

Instant kill!!!

Mo Xie’s strike left no chance for Zhang Zhihe’s Winged Soul Pet to survive!!

“How is this possible!!!!” Zhang Zhihe, suspended in the sky, was stunned!!

His Winged Soul Pet was High-level Emperor grade; how could it possibly be instantly killed by a single strike at the same level!!

All the surrounding assassins were also petrified, one of the Soul Alliance Thirty Two Traces, Zhang Zhihe, was actually killed by a strike from a youth’s Soul Pet, it was simply unbelievable!!

“A Soul Pet with Dual-main Attributes!!” Zhu Haoting’s face was filled with indescribable shock!

A High-level Emperor Soul Pet with Dual-main Attributes, meant that its strength was very close to a Peak Emperor Level, and it might not even lose against an ordinary Peak Emperor in battle. Zhu Haoting had never imagined that this Chu Fangchen’s strength could have reached such a level!!

“If this man is not eliminated, he will surely become a great threat to the Soul Covenant in the future!” Zhu Haoting said fiercely!

So young, and yet his strength was already exceptional; given a few more years, who in the entire Wanxiang Realm could stand in his way!

Princess Wan Ning had also lost her composure for a moment. She had previously learned of Chu Mu’s Soul Pet having the strength of a Peak Emperor, and now, witnessing this man’s true power, she couldn’t help but admire him. Soul Hall hadn’t seen such a shocking powerhouse in a very long time!

“You find a chance to capture those two women, I’ll deal with this kid myself!” Zhu Haoting’s expression became a few degrees more solemn!

A battle with a Peak Emperor Level powerhouse was obviously not easy, and Zhu Haoting dared not take Chu Mu lightly, quickly chanting spells to summon his strongest Soul Pet to his side.

The Main Pet summoned by Zhu Haoting was an Abyssal Horned Beast, having reached the rank of Peak Emperor. Even as a Beast Soul Pet, it could easily hover in mid-air!

This Abyssal Horned Beast’s body was exceptionally massive, seemingly occupying a large portion of the night sky, exuding an icy glow from its mountain-like steel body. If one were to be struck by such a creature, even the most defensively strong beings might be shattered to their core!!

“Young Master Chu, just focus on fighting, I will protect Man’er,” said Princess Wan Ning, aware that Chu Mu, controlling only one Soul Pet, couldn’t afford to be distracted to take care of herself and Ning Man’er. Seizing the moment of Zhang Zhihe’s distraction, she decisively broke out of the encirclement with her Misty Immortal Bird.

“Take care of yourself,” Chu Mu replied casually, showing no concern for Ning Man’er and Princess Wan Ning.

How could Zhu Haoting possibly let Princess Wan Ning escape? Glancing in the direction of the Misty Immortal Bird’s flight, he said coldly, “All of you, pursue them, and we need them alive!”

The injured Zhang Zhihe and other assassins naturally knew that they had little chance to intervene in a battle with a Peak Emperor Level opponent. Seeing the two women escaping, they promptly pursued using their Winged Soul Pets!

…

“Man’er, don’t be afraid, your sister won’t let them hurt you,” Wan Ning whispered to Ning Man’er beside her.

As she spoke, Princess Wan Ning looked back at those pursuing her and noticed that at least nine figures followed, and their speed was not much slower than hers!

Princess Wan Ning’s face grew stern; at this rate, they were surely going to be caught.

“Sister, don’t be afraid, with White Two and White Four here, if they catch up, they’re just asking for trouble,” Ning Man’er said with a smile.

White Nightmare Emperor and White Nightmare Demon, these two bodyguards were always by her side. How could Ning Man’er be afraid? It would even be better if more people chased after them—it would be more fun.

Princess Wan Ning naturally thought that Ning Man’er was too young to understand the strength of their enemies and looked quite anxious.

“Princess, you’d better surrender without a fight. Sir has ordered us to take you alive, so we won’t take your life, but if you continue to waste my time… hmph, my mood right now is very bad!!” The following Zhang Zhihe spoke with a chilling tone, his eyes even flashing some sinister light!

A High-level Emperor was so treasured to Zhang Zhihe, yet it was killed in an instant. This caused an immediate distortion in his psyche.

When in a very bad mood, Zhang Zhihe tended to vent out on women!
