Chapter 234: Chapter 115: Traveling Together, Wandering Siblings
....Translator: 549690339
In the City of Cold Pools, there was a bustling street. Chu Mu currently had about one million gold coins left on him, which he needed to use to buy some Soul Cores in the market.
During the period when Chu Mu was pursued by Xia Guanghan, he hadn’t had the chance to buy Soul Cores, and his Soul Pets’ food supply had dropped somewhat.
Now, all of Chu Mu’s Soul Pets, except for MO Ye, needed to eat level 6 Soul Cores that were very compatible with their own attributes.
Generally speaking, the more attributes and purer a Soul Core is, the higher its price. Chu Mu spent 500,000 gold coins on purchasing a ring with a larger storage space, using the rest of the money to buy the necessary Soul Cores for his Soul Pets.
After purchasing the Soul Cores, Chu Mu rode his Night Thunder Dream Beast to an inn to rest, planning to continue his journey into the bald mountains after some rest.
“Wuu wuu” With a comfortable room available, the cleanliness -loving MO Xie immediately let out a happy cry. After several light jumps, MO Xie bounced into the fragrant bathing pool filled with water.
Demon Fire Evil Flame ignited from MO Xie’s body, seeping into the water. As the firelight flickered, it almost instantly turned the water in the bathing pool hot, with white steam slowly rising…
“Ah ha, this old man needs a bath too, I’m covered in dust.” Fox Elder quickly took off his ridiculous clothes, revealing his small body covered in cat fur, jumped up, and wanted to wash himself in the bathing pool as well.
However, just as Fox Elder’s body soared into the air, one of Little MO Xie’s tails suddenly lengthened, extending beyond the water surface and directly smacking the dirty old man away.
“Dong dong dong——” There was a sudden knock on the door from outside.
Chu Mu ignored Fox Elder, who had just flown past him and out the window, glanced at the door being knocked, and slowly got up, walked to the door, and opened it.
“Haha, it really is Chu Mu!” As soon as Chu Mu opened the door, he saw two familiar figures and heard a surprised voice at the same time.
Chu Mu was also taken aback, staring at the two men for a moment before revealing a surprised smile and asking, “Big brother, Third brother, how come you’re here?”
Standing in front of Chu Mu’s door were Chu Xing and Chu Ning. Chu Mu hadn’t expected to meet them in Cold Pool City, along with their family’s migration to the South Domain, without any prior arrangement.
“Just now, as we passed by, we heard people saying that a young man rode a cool Night Thunder Dream Beast and dashed gracefully down the avenue. We immediately thought of your Night Thunder Dream Beast, so we asked around and found our way here. We knocked on the door and didn’t expect it to be you, kid,” Chu Ning said with a smile.
Dream Beasts were rare among Commander Soul pets, and Night Thunder Dream Beasts with dual attributes were even fewer. Chu Xing and Chu Ning had only casually investigated, hoping to find that the young man riding the Night Thunder Dream Beast was actually Chu Mu.
Chu Mu invited the two into the house and listened to their slow explanation of why they were in Cold Pool City.
In fact, the location of the Chu Family’s migration was in a city further east of the eastern foothills of Sin-Origin Mountain range. The distance from Cold Pool City was not very far, taking about six days to travel. If they were riding higher-grade Soul Pets, it wouldn’t take more than four days.
Since the family had just settled in Qingfan City, they needed various resources from the surrounding area to quickly develop the family. As a result, the young generation of the family began to scatter around, getting to know the nearby situation and bringing valuable things back to the family…
Chu Xing and Chu Ning were a team assigned to come to this place to look for valuable Cold Pool Water during the peak season of Sin Source Cold Pool.
Even if they were unlucky and couldn’t find any, the two could still go to the Sin-Origin Mountain range to practice and improve their strength.
“I heard that the Great Chu Noble Familv also sent some DeoDle to this citv.
Maybe big sister Chu Qian is here too.” Chu Ning mentioned.
“Qian is in Cold Pool City?” Chu Mu was somewhat surprised. Chu Mu had a deep impression of Chu Qian, but it’d been a long time since he’d seen her. He didn’t know how she was doing in the Great Chu Noble Family now.
“She probably isn’t. I didn’t hear anything about it in the letter,” Chu Xing replied.
“We’ve been in Cold Pool City for a while now and gathered quite a bit of information. We were about to find a group of people to go with, and your timing was perfect, fourth brother. With you, we’ll have a better chance. Even if we encounter people from major powers, we won’t have to worry,” said Chu Ning with a smile.
“I was about to hire a local guide to take me into the mountains. In that case, let’s all set off early tomorrow,” Chu Mu responded with a smile.
Chu Xing and Chu Ning had already familiarized themselves with the route and were both trustworthy people. There was no need for Chu Mu to look for other companions mechanically.
“We also found a brother and sister duo, and they’re planning to go to the Sin Source Cold Pool too. They’re the kind of people who are too lazy to put in the effort to understand the situation. Their strength is quite strong, and at first glance, they’re experienced adventurers who’ve been out for a long time. They’ll rendezvous with us early tomorrow, making a total of five people heading there together,” Chu Xing explained.
Chu Mu nodded. The Sin Source Cold Pool was full of bald mountains, and although there were no Mysterious Realms, the area was still very dangerous. Having more people to look out for each other was a good thing.
“Are the brother and sister reliable?” Chu Mu asked.
“After interacting for a few days, the guy seems very casual, loves arguing with people, but doesn’t seem too scheming. The girl is quite serious and gives off a good impression,” Chu Xing mentioned.
“Big Brother, I think it’s not just about having a good impression, right?” Chu Ning’s tone seemed a bit strange.
Chu Xing coughed awkwvardly and said nothing more.
Chu Mu didn’t understand their hidden meanings and thought it was unimportant, so he didn’t pay much attention.
Chu Xing and Chu Ning stayed in the room next to Chu Mu. During the night, Chu Mu followed his usual cultivation practice: he fed 50% of his Soul Power to the White Nightmare Demon first and then started meditating until daylight before sleeping.
In the morning, Chu Mu patiently fed his soul pets delicious food and waited for Chu Xing and Chu Ning, who soon got ready to leave.
Chu Mu, along with MO Ye, instructed Fox Elder not to speak without his permission before heading to the east of the city with Chu Xing and Chu Ning to meet the sibling duo.
The eastern part of the city was bustling with people coming and going. From time to time, one could see Soul Pet Masters riding their soul pets flying past the city gate. Many Soul Pet Masters traveled in groups, presumably heading to Sin Source Cold Pool to find the Cold Pool Water.
“They’re over there… Huh, looks like they are arguing with other people, ” Chu Xing quickly found the siblings but noticed that they were currently engaged in a heated dispute with three other individuals. “Should we go over?” Chu Ning glanced at Chu Mu.
“Let’s go,” Chu Mu replied.
As they got closer, Chu Mu recognized the siblings Chu Xing and Chu Ning were talking about. Just like how Chu Xing described them, the guy seemed very casual in his attire and hairstyle, sporting a laid-back vibe. What was particularly unique about the youth was the odd-shaped fluffy hat on his head.
As for the girl, she had long, shoulder-length black hair and a beautiful, delicate face. Upon closer inspection, she gradually gave off a heart-pounding charm.
Below, she only wore thin trousers that tightly wrapped around her beautiful legs, highlighting their fullness and elasticity. Moreover, her simple boots showcased her delicate legs perfectly…
Simple yet beautiful and with a great temperament, Chu Mu’s first impression of the girl was quite positive.
“Believe it or not, I’ll gouge out your eyeballs right now!” Suddenly, a somewhat sharp voice interrupted Chu Mu’s admiration for the girl.
“Gouge them out and place them on your chest so I can get a better look?” The casual guy responded with a straight face.
“You! Shameless! I must kill you today!” The girl’s face flushed red, looking both angry and frustrated that she couldn’t summon her soul pet.
Summoning soul pets other than those used for riding was prohibited in many places in the city, let alone Soul Pet Master battles. As a result, despite her extreme anger, the girl couldn’t dare to summon her soul pet in front of the guards and disrupt the city’s order.
“Yang Ling, forget it. Don’t bother with this uneducated person. The others are waiting for us outside,” the woman in a deep yellow short blouse and silk pants spoke up.
“I’m the uneducated one? Little girl, don’t think that just because yours are quite large, you can say anything you want!” The guy really was uneducated and rude.
There were three people on the other side, two women and one man. The girl named Yang Ling had a nice face and figure, especially her chest which looked like it was about to burst out of her thin clothes.
The reason for their quarrel was easy to guess: the guy had been staring shamelessly at Yang Ling’s enticingly full part for too long, which provoked her anger and led to a verbal altercation.
What was interesting was that while the brother shamelessly argued with the three people, the sister stood calmly by his side, perfectly unruffled.
Seemingly bored with the scene, the sister, who had been watching by the side, looked for the two people they were waiting for and saw Chu Xing and Chu He approaching.
“There they are,” the sister calmly told her still-arguing brother, grabbing the collar of his clothes and dragging him away before he could finish his sentence.
“Gentle! Gentle! … What, am I a hooligan? You’re flaunting your stuff walking around in revealing clothes; don’t blame me for having wandering eyes! If you were a true lady, you’d be covered up properly and staying in a secluded place…” Even as he was dragged away by his sister, the wanderer couldn’t help but throw a few more insults at the two women.
The three people looked furious, as if they wanted to come over and beat him up, but they seemed to have urgent matters to attend to. So, they forcefully suppressed their rage, hurled several malicious words at him, and hurriedly headed towards the east city gate.
