“Take this Monument Tear along. Perhaps it will help you when you need it. Of course, it can also bring disaster to you,” Elder Li walked to the foreign rock and passed that Monument Tear hidden inside the rock to Chu Mu.
Chu Mu looked at the Monument Tear floating in front of him, unsure whether to receive it or not.
“Oh, there’s a bad news for you. You territory seems to be in big trouble,” said Elder Li.
“What big trouble?” Chu Mu frowned.
New Moon Land was currently very stable. Its average strength also surpassed the surrounding borders, so it should not encounter any problem.
“My informant told me that New Moon Land had been determined to be Racial Independence. It would be subjugated by a joint force from the human factions. You better go back and ask for the details yourself,” said Elder Li.
When Elder Li said that, Chu Mu also had a bad feeling.
Joint force subjugation, and from many factions. Would those major factions be at war with New Moon Land?
“Take it. You are already carrying many heavy burdens. This Monument Tear will bring trouble to you, but will also provide you with boundless strength. You are the guardian of Messiah Tree, you need to take responsibilities. Your territory is invaded, you need greater strength in order to protect it,” said Elder Li.
Chu Mu nodded and eventually accepted this Monument Tear.
Escaping held no meaning. Perhaps just as Elder Li said, that he was the most suitable inheritor?
......
After leaving Heavenly Realm, Chu Mu had been thinking over Elder Li’s words.
Just what could have happened? Why would New Moon Land suffer a joint subjugation from those factions? What happened during Dual Earth Conference?
“Big brother, are we going back to Wanxiang City now?” asked Ning Maner.
“The promised time with East Ocean Siren King is almost up. We will go there once and then immediately return to Wanxiang City,” said Chu Mu.
With Night’s current speed, it should not take too long to head back to Wanxiang City from Coral City.
......
After reaching Coral City, Chu Mu immediately found mermaid princess Lan Qie and asked about little Yellow Spring.
Lan Qie could tell Chu Mu was in a hurry, so she did not say anything pointless, “Yellow Spring Emperor has ordered to remove the seals on Yellow Spring Calamity, but some races cannot accept it back into East Ocean. Yellow Spring Emperor will exile it into another ocean region.”
“Exile again? A big problem has come up in my territory, I cannot stay with Ocean Species,” said Chu Mu.
Lan Qie saw Chu Mu’s anxious state and smiled, “Do you know where it will be exiled to?”
How could Chu Mu know where Yellow Spring Emperor would be exiling Yellow Spring Calamity to?
“East Ocean East Border Ocean,” Lan Qie’s mouth curved up.
Isn’t East Ocean’s eastern most side New Moon Land? Then isn’t that Dark Sky Ocean which extends into the continent??
“Dark Sky Ocean is your territory, its freedom is up to you,” said Lan Qie.
Chu Mu and Ning Maner were still filled with worry a moment ago, but they immediately smiled after hearing that.
This was basically leaving Yellow Spring Calamity under his management in another way. Yellow Spring Emperor’s exile this time was perfect!
Other than not having sufficient sunlight, Dark Sky Ocean’s environment was still pretty decent. Little Yellow Spring would have a much better time living in Dark Sky Ocean than Exile Ocean. Also, it could visit Wanxiang City when it was free. Little Yellow Spring had half unicorn bloodline anyway, there would be no problem fighting or moving on land.
“Yellow Spring Emperor’s order has been issued. Next will be waiting for the royal ocean guards to execute it. If your territory is in trouble, you should go back first. The royal ocean guards will escort little Yellow Spring Calamity to Dark Sky Ocean. You will be in charge of receiving it by then,” said Lan Qie.
“Alright,” Chu Mu certainly could not afford to waste any time. Hearing this news, he could return to Wanxiang City in relief.
“Wait,” Lan Qie saw Chu Mu in a hurry to leave and quickly stopped him.
“What else is there?” asked Chu Mu.
“Didn’t you agree to bring me to your human territory?” Lan Qie looked at Chu Mu with a smile.
“New Moon Land is under subjugation by human forces right now. After I settle this matter......” said Chu Mu.
Lan Qie shook her head, “When we were in danger, you stand up for us and helped us. Now that you are facing danger, how can we leave you alone? I have received the news about the subjugation. This is an extremely large scale war. Our East Ocean’s war has reached an initial victory and slowly settled down. I believe it’s time we help you settle your war. After all, we are unswerving allies.”
Chu Mu could not ask for more to be able to receive assistance from East Ocean’s Ocean Species. After all, no matter how easy to defend and difficult to attack New Moon Land was, it could not be compared to those powerful factions.
“Great, great. However, sister mermaid needs to learn to wear clothes. Human territories have many lechers like big brother,” exclaimed Ning Maner.
“I shall abide by the culture,” said Lan Qie with a smile.
......
Chu Mu was actually really clueless how it would be like for the mermaid princess to be on land.
When Lan Qie and her maid followed Chu Mu to land, Chu Mu suddenly realized this mermaid princess was quite smart.
Mermaids were not used to wearing clothes. They wrapped soft corals around their chest, their shoulders and abdomen were still completely exposed.
Meanwhile, they used a long skirt to cover their curvy mermaid lower bodies. The long mermaid skirt traced out a beautiful curve. They could easily be recognized as women with beautiful hips and long legs. They did not look strange at all.
He had to admit that mermaids were certainly creatures filled with beauty and temptation all over their bodies. Perhaps all races would love their appearance.
Since mermaid princess Lan Qie would be heading out, her two Ocean Iguana Guards would naturally be brought.
These Ocean Iguana Guards would naturally be treated as Lan Qie’s soul pets. With that, other than attracting the gaze of humans, it should not cause a great commotion.
Of course, Chu Mu still suggested to mermaid princess not to just wear a chest wrap when going to a crowded place. She was already so beautiful, it would cause a commotion if she wore an attire with such high exposure.
......
Mermaid princess Lan Qie possessed the ability to manipulate water. Chu Mu rode on Night and flew parallel to the ocean surface. Mermaid princess and her servants would ride on water.
After reaching New Moon Land, Chu Mu let the two mermaids sat on Night’s back, while he carried Ning Maner and continued rushing towards Wanxiang City.
Chu Mu knew it was an emergency, so he did not have any leisure to introduce many things to Lan Qie. He could let Ning Maner act as a tour guide after reaching Wanxiang City. Ning Maner knew how to play the most right now.
......
When Chu Mu returned to Wanxiang City, the door of the conference hall was opened. This meant everyone should be inside the hall.
Chu Mu brought mermaid princess, the important guest from Ocean Species, into the conference hall directly.
Within the hall, elders sat in two rows facing one another. The core members of New Moon Land were all present, including Ye Wansheng, Ye Qingzi, Mu Qingyi, Bai Yu, Prince Chao. These New Moon Land leaders were all in their seats.
Chu Mu and these people focused more on cultivation. Without any major events or special occasions, the leader seats in the conference hall would mostly be empty. It was a rare scene to see the current generation of leaders all attending. This was sufficient to indicate the severity of this matter.
Beneath these leaders would be the elder rank members and old or new members with extraordinary strength in New Moon Land. Even Cloud Gate Elder and Uncle Yu who were not in charge of anything sat in the conference hall.
Going further down, the Palace Masters sent to various Border Cities were mostly recalled.
Over half of the wandering guest members also showed up.
Chu Mu rarely participated in palace conferences. However, this time, the palace conference suddenly became so crowded and solemn. It was certainly the first time in history.
There were many people in the hall, but the hall was very quiet, as if they were discussing something in low volumes.
When Chu Mu barged in, everyone naturally turned their gaze towards him. When they saw the person barging in was Chu Mu, their worried expressions finally eased up a little, some even heaved a sigh of relief.
“King Chu.”
“King Chu!”
Other than people on the leader seats, the others stood up from their seats and greeted Chu Mu.
The stuffy atmosphere also freshened up a little with Chu Mu’s arrival.
Of course, the three beautiful women behind Chu Mu also entered the view of everyone.
Chu Mu walked straight to his throne and arranged guest seats for Lan Qie and her maid.
“What happened?” Chu Mu sat on his throne and swept his gaze over everyone.
Most of them remained silent. This would naturally be told by Liu Binglan.
However, before Liu Binglan spoke, someone else spoke first.
“New Moon Land is currently under a crisis, King Chu sure has great mood, bringing three beauties to tour until now. Only King Chu doesn’t know what the entire New Moon Land knows......”
These words carried a heavy sarcasm.
The person who spoke was a relatively highly reputed guest elder —— Xue Bin.
This elder was an expert who joined New Moon Land the earliest. Most guest experts were under his management. Even some internal affairs were managed by him.
Xue Bin’s words caused the venue’s atmosphere to become stuffy again.
Chu Mu did bring three beauties back, everyone saw that. Some people who were unfamiliar with Chu Mu naturally felt dissatisfaction after seeing such a scene. However, they did not dare to voice out.
At that moment, Ye Qingzi used mental voice to tell Chu Mu, “He’s Xue Bin, guest elder, also the one who intercepted the urgent letter of Ice City.”
Chu Mu took a glance at Xue Bin and a smile floated at the corner of his lips. He purposely did not try to explain this matter.
Trying to sow discord and shake the attitude of New Moon Land’s core members? Trying to make New Moon Land’s people lose confidence in their leader?
