Chapter 1323 1187 The Guardian of the Past

The deep blue gleam swirled around Yu Suo, who bit her teeth and resisted with all her might.

The brightness slowly dimmed, and Yu Suo forced herself to walk out from the recall pattern, already drenched in sweat.

“What’s wrong with you?” The Rudderman asked with concern.

Yu Suo had no time to answer because Chu Mu’s second recall spell had already appeared under her feet.

The signing of a soul contract inherently possesses coerciveness, and the Soul Pet Soul Contract signed between Chu Mu and Yu Suo was not an Equal Soul Contract. In situations where their strengths were not too drastically different, the Dominator was always Chu Mu—Chu Mu was her Master, and no matter how firm and stubborn Yu Suo’s thoughts were, her soul was ultimately Chu Mu’s servant.

“Recalling a Soul Pet doesn’t consume Soul Power. You resist once, your punishment increases by one level. Weigh your pride against that cost.” Chu Mu’s voice drifted over slowly.

Chu Mu could cast the recall spell endlessly, while Yu Suo had to expend a large amount of mental energy to resist Chu Mu’s recall. If this continued, she would inevitably be pulled back in the end.

Yu Suo’s eyes, filled with rage, seemed as if they might shoot flames at any moment. She didn’t want to return to that sunless demon flame prison, nor endure the torture that felt like years passing each day. She had so much to do and was determined not to become a human’s slave!

“Take me away,” Yu Suo commanded Wan Zhong urgently. “Quick, the further, the better!”

Wan Zhong didn’t hesitate, piloting his Soul Pet swiftly towards the sky, flying rapidly away from Chu Mu.

The deep blue light continued to flicker, and Wan Zhong looked down at Yu Suo’s feet with some surprise.

Any Soul Pet Master was all too familiar with this kind of gleam—it was the Soul Contract Spell.

Yet Wan Zhong couldn’t understand why a human like Yu Suo would have such a recall pattern appear under her, which should only appear on those Soul Pets being recalled.

“Your Majesty, are you… are you alright?” Wan Zhong, anxious, saw that Yu Suo’s complexion was getting paler and paler.

“Wan… Wan Zhong, listen to me well,” Yu Suo said, her voice trembling and weak. She knew she couldn’t resist a few more recall spells.

Wan Zhong knelt down quickly, speaking with anxiety, “Your Majesty, what happened to you? Who has cursed you? Wan Zhong will go kill him immediately! Wan Zhong is not the person he once was; he now has the strength to protect you, and even if it’s not enough now, it will be in the future! Wan Zhong swears on his life he will not let you suffer any harm again. Please tell me!”

Seeing the man as steadfast as in his youth, Yu Suo’s lips curled with a bitter smile, “If I were no longer the same as I was back then, would you still pledge your loyalty to me?”

Wan Zhong paused, lifting his head formally to look at Yu Suo.

“Wan Zhong may have fallen, but never will his vows waver!” Wan Zhong declared solemnly.

Wan Zhong bowed his head, as devoted and solemn as a knight swearing allegiance to a princess.

It had been many years, and he had almost forgotten what loyalty, oaths, and faith meant. Lost and fallen, the world was so dark it drove one mad, but the moment he saw that woman, he knew what he lived for.

Perhaps, many would laugh at him for this. But the world would never understand a Guardian—they never needed to be understood!

In this moment of bowing his head, Wan Zhong had decided to take up the mantle of Guardian once more, waiting for the solemn ceremony from that woman, but those holy and gentle hands did not come to rest on his shoulder…

“Your Majesty?” Wan Zhong called out but received no reply.

He slightly lifted his head, no longer seeing the beautiful and noble skirt. He stood up abruptly. She was gone!

“`

Wan Zhong stood stupefied, could this be just like the nightmares that joked with him every day and every night, another dream where he ignited himself only to extinguish his own flames?

Petals scattered one after another, and Wan Zhong stood there for a very long time before slowly picking up the petals.

“This is…” Suddenly, Wan Zhong was ecstatic.

For these petals proved that this was not a dream, the veins on the petals told Wan Zhong what to do next.

…

By the peaceful lakeside in the distance, a woman as delicate as a fairy knelt on the grass, her beautiful skirt unfurling like partial flower petals, her long purple hair hanging down, with a few strands messily draped in front of her chest.

She had once again become a slave, but she still held her face up, her stunning features maintaining dignity and purity.

She didn’t speak, just sat there, and she swore she wouldn’t utter a word to this demon!

Chu Mu stood by her side, having summoned Yu Suo back, and then summoned her out again.

Looking at her stubborn and proud appearance, Chu Mu couldn’t help but chuckle—it was very much like how he had once pretended to be proud and stubborn when he was ridiculed for not being able to become a Soul Pet Master.

“Who is this Wan Zhong?” Chu Mu asked.

Yu Suo remained silent, barely having been able to escape the clutches of this fiend and now back again, Yu Suo felt utterly miserable and reached the peak of her rage.

“Was he your former Guardian?” Chu Mu continued.

Yu Suo was looking elsewhere, but when Chu Mu spoke those words, she immediately turned to him, the phrase “how do you know that” almost slipped out.

“During our mental confrontation before, I seemed to have seen some of your memories, yeah, quite pitiful; I truly sympathize with you,” Chu Mu said.

Yu Suo’s face turned livid with rage. This damned soul contract, why were her memories visible to him; she would not let a second person know of that humiliating chapter of her life!!

“Sympathy is one thing, punishment is another,” Chu Mu cracked his characteristic grin—a smile that seemed carefree and natural, but was clearly laced with a trace of evil aura, “You resisted my summoning spell a total of nine times, I’ll round it up for you, adding ten layers. Don’t glare at me, this is good for your cultivation. With such great ambitions and such weak strength, how could that possibly do? Once you’ve increased your strength, you can continue trying to escape, and by challenging my spirit, it can also lead to the sublimation of my soul. In this way, we, master and servant, can indeed motivate each other.”

Seeing her own past memories exposed by Chu Mu, Yu Suo was already seething with anger, and after listening to Chu Mu’s words, she became furious, almost crazed, wanting to rush forward and fight Chu Mu to the death.

How could Chu Mu let this frenzied woman touch him? With just a thought, he recalled her back into the Soul Pet Space and added another spiritual seal on the Good and Evil Flower King.

“Chu Mu, you will not die a good death, Chu Mu you will not die a good death, not a good death, you surely will not die a good death!!” Yu Suo cursed like a vengeful ghost!

Chu Mu found it uncomfortable to his ears and casually sealed off the spirit of the Soul Pet Space, letting her reflect well within the intensified Demon Flame.

“Huff~~~~~~~~”

A bright flame ignited on Chu Mu’s palm, and looking at this Silver Flame, a smile couldn’t help but surface on his lips.

With the growth of Soul Sense alongside the increase of half-demon strength, then now, he should also be an Intermediate Master, right?
