Chapter 1457: Chapter 1317: Intruder! Ning Manâerâs Anger Chapter 1457: Chapter 1317: Intruder! Ning Manâerâs Anger In the room, He Shangguan gritted his teeth in dissatisfaction, swallowing down the medicine a maid had brought him before furiously throwing the cup onto the ground where it shattered.
The maid was startled and hastily gathered the fragments of the cup.
âGet lostâdonât hover around us,â He Shangguan barked angrily.
The maidâs face turned pale, and she quickly bowed before running outside.
âHe Shangguan, why such anger?â Hua Zheng of the Monster Beast Palace slowly spoke.
âHmph,â He Shangguan snorted.
How could he not be furious? The Rage of Light at the Peak Master Level had died at that personâs hands. He had thought, meeting here in Fortress City, that Lord Xu might help him severely punish that person. Little did he know that the girl named Xiao Xiao, who was with them, was the beloved daughter of Mr. Xiao of the Monster Beast Palace.
Mr. Xiao of the Monster Beast Palace was someone even Chief Officer Xu dared not provoke. How could he then dare trouble Xiao Xiao and her companions? Yet the death of his Spirit Pet, how could he swallow that grievance?
âHeh heh, He Shangguan, those four arenât members of our Monster Beast Palace. It seems Miss Xiao Xiao just made some friends while she was out. We wonât let you touch Miss Xiao Xiao, but as for her friends, we are under no obligation to protect them,â Hua Zheng said.
Those words made He Shangguanâs eyes light up!
Indeed, they dared not provoke Miss Xiao Xiao, but the other four, their origins unclear, seemed to lack any significant backing.
âHe Shangguan, that Chu Mu owns an Immortal Level Spirit PetâŠâ Wan Jun muttered quietly.
The shadow of the Black Nightmare Demon still hadnât completely left Wan Jun.
âHe has his Soul Sense Sealed. Do you think the seals of our Divine Sect are so easily broken?â He Shangguan said.
âHeh heh, in any case, this matter doesnât concern us. Of course, He Shangguan, donât act too excessively, or it will be hard for us to explain,â Hua Zheng advised.
âOf course!â He Shangguan sneered coldly.
The fourâs Soul Senses had been Sealed; killing their Soul Pets was impossible for him. He could simply use the same method of poison to give them all a taste of physical torment!
Thinking this, He Shangguan had already risen from his seat and gone outside.
Before long, He Shangguan returned; he brought along Cai Yun and Wan Jun and walked towards the courtyard protected by a barrier.
In the courtyard were two other members of the Monster Beast Palace standing guard. He Shangguan walked into the house and saw the five people all sitting in the Hall.
He Shangguan swept his gaze over Ye Wansheng, Chao Lengchuan, and Chu Mu, his lips curling into a cold smirk.
âGet out, I donât want to see you here,â Xiao Xiao irritably told He Shangguan.
âMiss Xiao Xiao, I just want to talk to the others,â He Shangguan replied.
He Shangguan approached Chu Mu, Ye Wansheng, and Chao Lengchuan, holding a bottle of bluish-green medicine, and slowly asked, âDo you know what this is?â
Chu Mu, Ye Wansheng, and Chao Lengchuan all ignored him.
He Shangguan continued, âThis is poison liquid I just bought from a Fortress Xuan Master. The Xuan Master told me that if you smear this poison on your face, it will first erode the flesh and then gradually the bones, corroding them completelyâŠâ
âWow, thatâs potent. This is way stronger than my Poison Flea Powder. Could it be that childâs urine is needed to neutralize it? If itâs smeared on the face, that would be utterly disgustingâŠâ Ye Wansheng cooperated very well as he exclaimed in shock.
The muscles on He Shangguanâs face twitched. Back when Poison Fleas had covered his body including his face, to stop his face from being stung, He Shangguan had submerged his entire body, and now whenever he drank or ate, he felt nauseated!
Ye Wanshengâs words undeniably infuriated He Shangguan, who suddenly reached out, grabbed Ye Wansheng by the neck, and said grimly, âIâll poison your face first!â
Saying this, He Shangguan unscrewed the bottle and furiously poured the liquid toward Ye Wanshengâs face.
âAh!!!!!â A scream suddenly erupted, the sound of agony echoing in the room.
However, the scream was not from Ye Wansheng but rather He Shangguan.
Just as He Shangguan was pouring the poison on Ye Wanshengâs face, Chu Mu, who was sitting beside him, nonchalantly flicked his wrist and all the splashed poison liquid rebounded onto He Shangguanâs face.
He Shangguanâs face quickly began to decay. He fell to the ground in agony, covering his face and howling in pain.
Cai Yun and Wan Jun were stunned, unsure of what had happened, but instinctively summoned their Soul Pets.
Silver Demon Flame surged around Chu Mu, filling the entire Hall and incinerating everything inside.
Cai Yun and Wan Jun were driven back by the wave of fire, forcefully ejected from the hall by the powerful aura.
The seals of the Divine Sect indeed had a great restrictive effect on Soul Pet Masters; however, Chu Mu, being of the Abnormal Series, inherently possessed tremendous strength, so he could break the Soul Sense seal within a certain period!
Having used the half-demonâs power to break the Soul Sense seal, Chu Mu quickly recited a Spell and summoned Mo Ye and Ye.
âMo Ye, help everyone lift the seals,â Chu Mu instructed.
âWoo woo woo~~~~~â Silver crescent marks appeared on Mo Yeâs forehead, a stunning silver light swept over Ye Wansheng, shattering the shackles on his soul.
Subsequently, the soul contracts of the Morning Crown Prince, Pang Yue, and Xiao Xiao were all smashed, and they quickly recited Spells, summoning their respective Soul Pets.
âChu Mu, you go ahead and leave this to us,â Ye Wansheng and the Morning Crown Prince said.
Chu Mu glanced at the three individuals from the Monster Beast Palace who had hurried over and the three slightly recovered members of the Divine Sect.
Among them, only Hua Zheng from the Monster Beast Palace was significantly stronger. Yet having lost two Peak Master Level Spirit Pets, the three from the Divine Sect should be manageable by the four of them.
Time was running out, many forces were rushing to the Depths of the Silent Forest; Chu Mu indeed had no time to delay with these people.
âYou guys, be careful,â Chu Mu nodded.
âDonât worry, weâll catch up soon. You handle the expert, and weâll take care of Little Luo!â the Morning Crown Prince grinned.
Chu Mu didnât say more, and after using the Displacement Demon Shadow, he fled with Mo Ye to the edge of the courtyardâs barrier.
With a single swipe of its claws, Mo Ye tore apart the barrier set by the Divine Sect and rushed out of the courtyard, flying straight out of the city.
The three from the Monster Beast Palace were about to pursue Chu Mu, but by then, Ye Wansheng, Leng Chuan, Pang Yue, and Xiaoxiao had already summoned all their main pets, all of which were High Master Level or above soul pets. Naturally, Hua Zheng and the others from the palace didnât dare to follow.
âMiss Xiaoxiao, why must you make this difficult for us?â Hua Zheng said with a bitter smile, seeing the hostility from the four.
âHmph, then step aside, donât get in the way,â Xiaoxiao said.
Naturally, Hua Zheng couldnât let Xiaoxiao leave, or else once Huo Lei returned, he would also face punishment.
âThen I must offend you,â and with that, Huo Lei quickly joined the other three from the Divine Sect, planning to unite their forces to keep the four there.
âI⊠Iâm going to kill you all!â He Shangguan, completely disfigured, roared, chanting a spell and summoning another Peak Master Level soul pet!
âBring it on!â the Morning Crown Prince coolly commanded the Wanzhao Beast to meet the attack.
The battle was on the verge of erupting, the battle of four against six soul pets mixed together on the undying Demon Flame.

Inside the Silent Forest
The desolate Old Divine Tree seemed to be getting more slumped over time; probably within a few years, this body that had stood for who knows how many tens of thousands of years would be buried in the yellow dirt.
Under the tree, the quiet, lonely girl was still sleeping.
She didnât want to wake up. If she woke up and saw the decrepit state of the Old Divine Tree, she would burst into tears, so she preferred to lie there quietly.
âYuuuu~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~â
Suddenly, a powerful cry came from the vast sky.
The Three-eyed Wind Hawk plummeted from the high altitude and landed beside Ning Manâerâs small wooden bed.
It gently tapped Manâer with its wings, trying to wake her up.
Ning Manâer slowly opened her eyes and saw it was her Uncle Wind Hawk, a smile immediately appeared on her cheeks.
âYuuu~~~~~~â the Three-eyed Wind Hawk flapped the leaves covering Manâer and motioned for her to come onto its back.
âHas someone invaded?â Ning Manâer blinked.
The Wind Falcon nodded.
The Silent Forest was already ruined, why were people still not letting it go, breaking into it?
âCould it be⊠they are here for me, the ones who killed Big Lion!â Ning Manâer realized suddenly.
It had been such a long time, and she didnât think those people had given up on pursuing her!
The Ning Clan and Great Ning Imperial Clan were both unaware of the World Tree Seed matter; only those who had been persistently after her were convinced that the seed was still with her.
âYuuu~~~~â the Three-eyed Wind Hawk encouraged Ning Manâer to climb onto its back, planning to take her away.
Ning Manâer didnât hesitate, promptly climbing onto the Three-eyed Wind Hawk.
The Wind Hawk soared into the sky, swiftly ascending.
Manâer looked into the distance to see that the Wind Falcon Clan was densely gathered there, clearly battling some soul pets.
The Wind Hawk called out, informing Ning Manâer that her clansmen were holding off those trying to enter the Silent Forest.
After saying this, the Wind Hawk flapped its wings, flying in the opposite direction of the battlefield, intending to take Ning Manâer away from there.
Ning Manâer looked back at the sky, occasionally noticing flashes of bright red, feeling a sudden bitterness in her heart.
The guardians of the Wind Falcon Clan had already suffered heavy casualties in a previous battle in the Silent Forest; there were not many of them left.
Because her location was carelessly exposed, and now those people had come after her, the Wind Falcons were buying time for her, not knowing how many more would have to be sacrificed.
âI really donât have the seedâŠâ
âWhy must they do this!â
âWhy wonât they just leave me alone?!â
Ning Manâer bit her lip, anger, despair, and pain mingled in the blood slowly trickling from the corner of her mouth.
These emotions should not have surfaced in her pure heart, but now, she truly detested those greedy people to the bone!!
