Chapter 1510 1370 Decisive and Swift vs Dull and Slow

Chapter 1510: Chapter 1370: Decisive and Swift vs Dull and Slow Chapter 1510: Chapter 1370: Decisive and Swift vs Dull and Slow Chu Mu returned to his seat, not towards the Main Floating Mountain, but sitting next to the members of Our New Moon Land.

Ye Wansheng tactfully shifted a spot to let Chu Mu sit beside Ye Qingzi.

“Chu Mu, I’ve realized that you truly are shameless. Normally, you keep quiet and don’t bother to lift a finger for trifling matters. But once you’re at a grand event, where you can show off all you want, you’re more theatrical than anyone. Just look at how many young girls and married women are gazing at you. Compared to those brats, you’re the real man of passion,” Ye Wansheng went on.

“I feel the same way, but after this battle, I expect a lot of people will come to know about Our New Moon Land. It’s perfect; what Our New Moon Land lacked was just such an opportunity to shock everyone,” said Chao Leng Chuan.

Sure enough, as they spoke, lords from surrounding territories on the seats all showed interest in coming over to introduce themselves, and the discussions most often revolved around New Moon Land.

Chu Mu’s inner resentment was slightly relieved. His actions were not without consideration; it was just that under the influence of the Black Nightmare Demon’s Ultimate Evil, he had been a bit more ruthless.

He might offend some powers, but compared to the respect he would receive, these troubles hardly mattered.

“Little Hiding Dragon, come here,” Ye Qingzi said to the Little Hiding Dragon on Chu Mu’s shoulder.

The obedient Little Hiding Dragon flew in front of Ye Qingzi. It was the Little Hiding Dragon that was severely injured, and healing would certainly be quicker with Ye Qingzi’s treatment compared to slow self-recovery.

Zhan Ye had just completed Limb Regeneration not long ago, using up a lot of energy, but its injuries were minor. As for Dream of Oblivion, there was no need to talk about injuries – in that chaotic battle, the enemies hadn’t even touched a single feather, so naturally, no treatment was needed.

Ye Qingzi held the plump body of the Little Hiding Dragon with one hand. She didn’t use any skills, but simply applied some Healing Potion to the wound to remove any potential worsening poisons, before covering it with a layer of external Healing Medicine.

“Open your mouth,” Ye Qingzi told the Little Hiding Dragon.

The Little Hiding Dragon obligingly opened its mouth, revealing its pearly white teeth to the air. Far from appearing fierce or frightful, it looked endearingly clumsy and utterly adorable.

Ye Qingzi fed the Little Hiding Dragon a Soul Healing Potion. The potion might have been a bit bitter and choking. Just as the Little Hiding Dragon was about to spit it out, Ye Qingzi glared at it and said, “Don’t spit it out, swallow it.”

“Shasha sha~~~~~” The Little Hiding Dragon made a whining noise through its nose, swallowing down the awful-tasting potion while silently grumbling to itself: Why take out her anger on Master on me?

Seeing the Little Hiding Dragon’s pitiable yet cute appearance and Ye Qingzi’s serious demeanor, Chu Mu couldn’t help but smile.

“What’s so funny? Just because you’re in a bad mood doesn’t mean you can do whatever you want, like a child,” huffed Ye Qingzi.

Chu Mu knew that Ye Qingzi must have cooled down somewhat, so he took her hand, not saying a word, just looking at her.

Ye Qingzi’s cheeks turned red, and she pulled her hand away. There were so many people around, and Chu Mu was still making these subtle moves.

Besides, who told you I’ve calmed down?

Ye Qingzi pulled back her hand, but Chu Mu stubbornly held on, not caring whether others noticed or not, and then looked at Ye Qingzi with a simple and honest expression.

Ye Qingzi didn’t have the strength to outmatch Chu Mu who could become half-demonized. Not being able to retrieve her hand after a while, she could only let him hold on, cursing silently in her heart: This guy, always the same, putting on a stern face like he’s all serious, but when he thickens his skin, there’s just no dealing with him.

Ye Qingzi thought of the time at the Soul Pet Palace Beast Fighting Arena in World City, how Chu Mu had come to embrace her in that dopey manner, which, compared to his bloodthirsty, wild demeanor on the battlefield, was like a completely different person.

At that time, Ye Qingzi was actually quite clear in her heart that these two states were the real Chu Mu. He was decisive and detached when dealing with enemies, but when it came to feelings and women, he was utterly clueless, a bit wooden, and slow, just doing whatever he thought in his heart, completely disregarding what others might think.

“This guy, completely unaware of what girls are thinking, yet still captures so many girls’ hearts. Annoying,” Ye Qingzi glanced at Chu Mu and muttered to herself internally.

If Chu Mu were a flirt, gaining many close female acquaintances would be normal with his current strength and charm, as winning a girl’s heart would be easy.

But he didn’t do that. He strictly disciplined his own emotions and wore the same face to other women, yet there were still people who liked him.

Ye Qingzi wasn’t foolish; how could she not notice some people’s thoughts? No matter how deep they hid them, what use was it? The deeper they hid, the deeper it grew.

Chu Mu had no interest in watching the subsequent competitions. Now, he just wanted to mend his relationship with Ye Qingzi.

The other three battles concluded one after another, with Lu Panxue unfortunately facing Han Erxing.

The battle between the two was mediocre, but Han Erxing won by a slight margin, leaving Lu Panxue with no chance of competing for championship status anymore.

And the final champion would emerge from among Chu Mu, Han Erxing, Xin Xin, and Tang Zhuo.

…

Tang Zhuo, Han Erxing, including Tang Ang’s deliberate scheming against Chu Mu, not only didn’t bring too much resentment towards New Moon Land but instead made more powers willing to form connections with New Moon Land, catching Honorable Lady Liu Binglan somewhat by surprise.

Especially at the Territory Conference, the way people treated the Female Superior of New Moon Land, Liu Binglan, was completely different from a few days ago. Such a change even made Liu Binglan a bit amused.

It seemed that even in the upper echelons of power, there was still a tendency to bully the weak and fear the strong. “Chu Mu’s” decisive lethality had thoroughly subdued those forces that had intended to give “New Moon Land” a hard time.

Moreover, since “Chu Mu” had made it into the top four, the benefits that the “Northern Territory’s New Moon Land” would receive were certainly tremendous. Those major powers that had not managed to secure such resources were, of course, trying every means to extend an olive branch to “New Moon Land,” hoping to gain some benefits for themselves.

Of course, the burgeoning power was inevitably suppressed by the established ones. “Liu Binglan” felt the clear hostility from some people at the meeting. This resentment was partly due to “New Moon Land’s” sudden rise, causing their dissatisfaction, and partly because “Chu Mu” had killed the “Soul Pets” of their younger generation members, which definitely worsened relations.

“Liu Binglan” knew that “New Moon Land” had to develop sooner or later and there was no need to back down just because the other party was a well-established force. She would stand firm where she needed to, and if they were the enemy, they would not show mercy just because of her weakness.

…

“Can our ‘New Moon Palace’ now have a branch in ‘Struggle Capital’?” “Pang Yue” asked excitedly.

“Mhm.” “Liu Binglan” nodded and said, “The ‘Territory Office’ has agreed.”

“That’s great. Last night when “Shen Mo” and I went to the tavern, I heard quite a few people saying they wanted to join “New Moon Land.” Moreover, many were placing bets on “Chu Mu,” believing he could become the ultimate winner. If “Chu Mu” really could become the champion, I guess even more people would want to join our “New Moon Land.” If we have a branch in ‘Struggle Capital,’ recruitment would be much easier. After all, we can’t expect them to travel so far to our “New Moon Land,”” “Ye Wansheng” said.

“Heh, I think once those people find out about the special Independent Space of our “New Moon Land,” they’ll make the trip no matter how far it is,” “Chao Lengchuan” said.

“Yeah, you’re right. Actually, there’s a large part of the population that doesn’t know about the existence of our ‘New Moon Land Holy Land,'” “Shen Mo” nodded emphatically.

“By the way, where did “Chu Mu” go?” “Liu Binglan” looked around at everyone, but “Chu Mu” was the only one missing.

“The couple is having a quarrel. You know, they’ve always had a good relationship, and it’s rare to see them give each other the cold shoulder. This is actually the first time they’re doing it. Quite interesting,” “Pang Yue” said with no care in the world.

Everyone immediately turned their gaze to “Pang Yue.”

“The Morning Crown Prince” glanced sideways at “Pang Yue” and said, “Pang Yue, what are you trying to do?”

“Pang Yue,” realizing her words were inappropriate, blushed deeply and quickly defended, “I just thought it was funny, don’t get the wrong idea!”

“Liu Binglan” had intended to mediate between “Ye Qingzi,” but she had indeed been quite busy lately and did not have the time for it. Besides, she felt it perhaps wasn’t quite right to intervene in the young people’s issues.

“Liu Binglan” could actually see where things were heading. Her only worry was whether the reticent “Chu Mu” would find the right way to reconcile things.

“Speaking of which, what happened to them? Why the cold war?” “Chao Lengchuan” gossiped quietly.

Everyone looked at “Chao Lengchuan” with disdain, proving that his EQ was even lower than “Chu Mu’s,” frightfully so.

“Do you even need to ask? It’s definitely about the ‘Little Princess,'” “Ye Wansheng” was the first to respond.

“Yeah, even an idiot can see that the ‘Little Princess’ likes “Chu Mu,” and “Chu Mu” has known the ‘Little Princess’ even longer…” “Pang Yue” said.

“Ah ha, let’s place our bets then. I bet the ‘Little Princess’ will win. Who are you guys betting on?” “Ye Wansheng” suddenly burst into laughter and placed a newly acquired “Xuan Crystal” on the table.

Everyone was speechless. “Pang Yue” glared at “Ye Wansheng” and said, “Qingzi is your younger sister; you’re too heartless.”

“Ye Wansheng” defended himself boldly, “What about my younger sister? This sort of thing doesn’t involve personal sentiment. I’m just being objective!”

Everyone who knew “Chu Mu” met him after “World City.” “Ye Wansheng” knew a bit about “Chu Mu’s” past with the ‘Little Princess,’ including the “World City turmoil.” He felt “Chu Mu” couldn’t really be that heartless, especially after witnessing the traumatic shock of the ‘Little Princess’ dying before his eyes.

“I bet on ‘Qingzi.'” “Pang Yue,” scoffing at “Ye Wansheng,” took her stand.

“I also bet on ‘Qingzi’ to win,” “Shen Mo” said.

Everyone took turns expressing their opinion, with the majority favoring “Ye Qingzi.”

When it was “Ning Man’er’s” turn, all eyes were on her.

“Forget it, she’ll bet on herself,” “Ye Wansheng,” seeing her hesitate to respond, kindly answered for her.

“Ning Man’er” immediately blushed and struggled to find words to argue.

“Ye Wansheng” was just that annoying, someone who couldn’t keep quiet or he’d suffocate.

“Liu Binglan” sipped her tea, preferring to stay silent in this situation.

Of course, “Liu Binglan” had her own opinion. She thought both girls were pretty good. In the end, it was still up to “Chu Mu” to handle things well. In such a situation, it was indeed quite easy for one of them to slip through his fingers.
