Chapter 1518: Chapter 1378: The Purest Evil Aura Chapter 1518: Chapter 1378: The Purest Evil Aura âThis seed will devour your blood and send a sprout into your marrow, spying on some of your thoughts,â Yu Suo said calmly to Guo Shi. âIf you have too many thoughts, this seed will turn them all into nutrients and grow a Demonic Flower from your brain.â
Guo Shi looked at the woman before him.
Wasnât this Lady Yu? That pure, noble woman revered as a saintess!
But her words just now made something squirm in Guo Shiâs mind. How could she use such a virulent method on him?
When Guo Shi fell from the sky to the ground, his whole body was soaked with cold water. From moments ago until now, it had been a genuine nightmare, and though it was all over, he was still deeply shaken.
First, there was the frightful Demon Man power of Chu Mu, then there was the respected and beloved Lady Yu turning into a demoness. Both were too incredible to believe.
âŠ
The silent street stretched long and dreary.
Chu Muâs figure was elongated by the dim moonlight as he slowly walked towards an elegant and serene courtyard.
Yu Suo didnât leave. She followed a step behind Chu Mu.
That didnât mean she had now become a qualified servant; she just didnât want to see Chu Muâs detestable face.
âWhere did you get your power from?â Yu Suo broke the silence, her voice melodious and pleasing, perfect if not for the hint of coldness.
Chu Mu couldnât be bothered to answer her and kept walking.
Yu Suo bit her lip, cursing Chu Mu in her mind.
As her stage increased, Yu Suoâs strength continually grew. She thought she could easily defeat Chu Mu now.
Yet, the strength Chu Mu displayed today shocked her deeply. His evil aura was even more profound than his malevolent flowers, leaving Yu Suo baffled about how he had acquired such formidable power.
Yu Suo actually didnât want to talk to Chu Mu, but since he was the Soul Petâs master, his increased strength and the intense evil aura in his body greatly aided in her stage enhancement. To obtain this evil aura, Yu Suo had to break the silence.
Her progress had been slow due to delays over the past few years. If she didnât increase her strength fasterâŠ
âChu Mu!â Yu Suo stopped in her tracks, calling out his name seriously.
Chu Muâs disregard for her made her feel very uncomfortable.
In Yu Suoâs eyes, she had long since paid back whatever she owed him. She was even willing to demean herself for a peaceful coexistence with him; what right did he have to act so high and mighty?
Chu Mu finally stopped and turned to look at her.
âGo back to Guangyue Palace. Iâm not stopping you,â Chu Mu said calmly.
âYou know what I want,â Yu Suo said.
Chu Mu treated her like air, continuing towards the courtyard.
Yu Suoâs face turned pale with anger, and a blood-red poisonous flower sprouted in her palm. The flower vanished into the air, darting towards Chu Muâs neck.
This Flower Stinger seemed plain compared to the elaborate skills of immortal level creatures.
But if the tip of the Flower Stinger merely scratched the skin of an immortal level creature, the creature would dissolve into blood in just a few seconds.
Chu Mu sensed the danger, but he didnât turn around or even pause his forward steps.
As he moved forward, just when the Flower Stinger was about to hit his neck, the space around Chu Mu suddenly distorted and fractured.
Chu Muâs body became ethereal, splitting in two, and the poisonous stinger passed right between these two shadows, merely slicing through the air.
Yu Suoâs vision blurred just as she was about to recast another spell, when a sharp pain in her heart suddenly struck her, leaving her nearly powerless to chant the spell, almost collapsing onto the ground.
The pain was like the poison flower stabbing directly into her heart!
She knew it was the backlash from the Flower Pistil, having handed her most important heart to the man. Any malice towards him inevitably brought severe retribution, and even if Chu Mu did nothing, she had to endure this painful backlash.
Yu Suo clenched her pale lips, steadied herself, and began chanting once more!
Many petals appeared around her. They seemed soft but concealed a blade-like lethality, swirling in the air around the space where Chu Mu was!
âSwish! Swish! Swish!â
Lines of blood appeared on Yu Suoâs body, dyeing her white dress bright red.
Her fair, flawless skin was marred by wounds from the sharp blades; anyone seeing it would surely be filled with pity.
The scent of blood permeated the air, not pungent like that of most creatures, but rather carrying a unique fragrance. Chu Mu turned his head and looked at Yu Suo, who was not much different from self-mutilation. Seeing her body covered in blood finally caused some ripples in his eyes.
âDo you have a sickness?â Chu Mu said indifferently.
Despite her wounds, Yu Suoâs eyes sparkled even more vividly.
The Flower Pistil was on Chu Muâs body, making it hard for Yu Suo to control. However, when the Flower Pistil was attacked, it absorbed the surrounding evil aura for self-protection.
The evil aura inside Chu Muâs body was, in Yu Suoâs opinion, the most perfect kind.
The most primal greed, the most piercing sadness, the deepest bone-deep hatred, the fiercest and strongest anger, yet amidst such intense evil, there was still mixed the purest and most upright good, selfless protection, and uncomplaining sacrificeâŠ
Utter goodness and utter evil, these two powers mixed together formed the irresistible delicacy for Yu Suo.
She never wanted to grovel to Chu Mu for anything, even as the Good and Evil Queen, it was an exchange of mutual benefits with Chu Mu.
But for this perfect power, Yu Suo was willing to demean herself and directly ask Chu Mu for itâŠ
However, Chu Mu completely ignored her.
Since he wouldnât give it, Yu Suo simply decided to take it herself by harming herself!
As long as she didnât kill herself, the huge evil aura accumulated in Chu Muâs body would become her strength.
Yu Suo began chanting a Spell again, ready to continue her attack on Chu Mu.
At this moment, Chu Mu also started chanting a Spell, using the power of darkness to restrain her.
âHow is it, canât bear to see me hurt?â Yu Suo, her Skills restrained, instead revealed a seductively challenging smile.
âI just dislike seeing a woman with a problematic brain parading in front of me,â Chu Mu said.
âBeing able to gain the interests I desire and cause you discomfort, this is just perfect for me.â Yu Suo laughed again.
It seemed Chu Mu was susceptible to gentleness rather than coercion, Yu Suo felt like sheâd grasped a vulnerability in Chu Mu, which to her was like acquiring a treasure.
After the battle in Wanxiang City, she had been oppressed and tormented by Chu Mu, even losing her own heart eventually. If she could win it back someday, that would indeed be a delightful thing.
Having realized this, Yu Suo no longer released her Skills, but suddenly shifted the topic, âDirectly killing Han Erxing like this, Han Yan will still suspect you.â
Chu Mu was taken aback, not expecting this woman to change her tune so quickly; just a moment ago she had seemed ready to go mad, and now she was earnestly discussing serious matters.
Chu Mu had been supportive of forming Yu Suoâs Invisible Kingdom.
However, Chu Mu didnât genuinely want to help this woman fulfill her massive ambitions, but rather because he knew that the people close to him couldnât always be protected by him personally all the time. Once the Invisible Kingdom is established, if he faced stronger enemies like the Fake Monument Weepers in the future, this kingdom could provide great protection for those close to him.
That was the reason Chu Mu had joined the Outstanding Competition and agreed to what the Good and Evil Queen said about going to Seal Valley Cultivation.
Ye Qingzi and Yu Suo had conflicts with Sect Leader Han and the Xuan Sect Chief Disciple, Lu Fengnan, the moment they entered Struggle Capital. Lu Fengnan was a significant obstacle to the development of the Invisible Kingdom, including Sect Leader Han, who had to be eliminated.
âLet him suspect then.â Chu Mu did not believe that Guo Shi alone would convince Han Yan to truly believe this incident was Lu Fengnanâs doing.
Not killing Guo Shi would merely create a fissure in the trust between Sect Leader Han and Lu Fengnan. As for any reprisal from Sect Leader Han, Chu Mu wasnât too worried.
If he wanted to retaliate, Chu Mu would be glad to kill a few more of his capable subordinates. If he targeted those close to Chu Mu, that would also depend on whether the Elder Lord Xiao of Divine Sect would agree.
Elder Lord Xiao might not pay much attention to what Han Erxing did, but if Sect Leader Han showed even a slight misstep, having nearly been killed by him once, Elder Lord Xiao and the suspicious Judge Xiao surely wouldnât let go of such misuse of power!
Of course, once Yu Suoâs Invisible Kingdom and the power of New Moon Land were fully formed, Chu Mu wouldnât need to worry about someone of the Sect Leaderâs caliber anymore.
âThis power doesnât suit you,â Chu Mu returned to the original topic.
âOn the contrary, I think this evil aura is very pure, very bare,â Yu Suo quite liked the scent on Chu Mu, that rare evil power in the world, which was perfectly suitable for her stage of growth. This was the first time she felt that having a soul contract with Chu Mu wasnât necessarily a bad thing, at least this man was much better at absorbing evil aura than she was.
The evil aura on Chu Mu was from White Threeâs Black Nightmare Demon of the highest bloodline and Ning Manâerâs inner evil power that nearly led her to Demonization. Although sharing it with the Good and Evil Queen wouldnât cause him any loss, Chu Mu for some reason was averse to others touching it.
This was the first time Chu Mu felt sorrowful upon gaining power, he didnât want it to be discovered, especially not by Yu Suo.
This was a vulnerability of the soul, Chu Mu had never thought he would fear gaining power, would feel disheartened by strong powerâŠ
And Yu Suo, probably misunderstanding Chu Muâs meaning, thought that Chu Mu really was more receptive to soft approaches than hard demands.
Soft rather than hard, but that depends on the person.
With someone like Yu Suo, Chu Mu wouldnât be swayed, either way.
Pity her? The result would definitely be her treating him like a pitiful worm.
