The Charm of Soul Pets Chapter 1473

Chapter 1473:
......
After returning to Ice City, it looked as if the city had just experienced a crazy battle. Everywhere he looked was tattered and some of the soul pet trainers on night duty were busy repairing the city wall.
The corpses of those monsters were stacked up into a hill outside the inner city. The pile was really high and was exuding a really dense stench. People within Ice City did not dare to go and clean up outside the city. In the end they could only control special plants and convert those corpses into nutrients for their plant type soul pets.
This kind of digestion process was actually really slow. The corpses could not be completely cleaned up even after daybreak.
Chu Mu entered the city and immediately saw that City Lord Bing Li was personally taking command.
This woman had not been able to rest for many days now. Her face was filled with fatigue, and her feeble appearance seemed as if a strong gust could easily end up toppling her.
City Lord Bing Li noticed that a streak of dark light was entering the city. Once she saw that it was Chu Mu, she revealed a prudent smile on her face and approached him.
“King Chu,” City Lord Bing Li bent over a little and greeted Chu Mu respectfully.
“How’s the current state of the city?” asked Chu Mu.
“It’s temporarily stable. The iceberg monsters have retreated for now. There shouldn’t be a large scale assault from them within the next two to three days,” answered Bing Li.
With Chu Mu’s Ghost King and Devil Tree Battle Solder defending the stronghold, those iceberg creatures could hardly breach their near perfect defense. City Lord Bing Li had truly witnessed the strength of the Immortal rank!
“Does King Chu have any discovery on his end?” asked Bing Li as she knew that Chu Mu had gone deep into the mountains.
“The situation is very dire. There is an iceberg monster army dozens of times stronger than the one here. There’s also an Immortal rank Extreme Sky Ice Beast among them. We may have to give up on this city,” said Chu Mu directly.
“Give up?” Bing Li was at a loss for words.
She had grown up in this city since young. She had taken over the role of City Lord from her father after she had become stronger. She held special feelings towards this city. Asking her to give up this city was practically the same as separating her from her family.
Chu Mu could tell that Bing Li was really unwilling and spoke again, “After this matter is properly settled, I will send people to help you rebuild the Ice City. The average rank of the monsters within the glacier mountain is very high. This city’s defenses cannot stop their all out assault.”
“How powerful are they?” asked Bing Li out of curiosity.
“There should be over a thousand Dominator rank, around ten Immortal rank, and then the strongest Glacier Ruler leading them,” said Chu Mu.
Bing Li opened her mouth, but no words came out at all.
There were only around a maximum of forty Dominator rank experts in the entire Ice City right now. This was already the full strength of the city. To think that there were over a thousand Dominator rank creatures wandering around within the Glacier. If those Dominator rank creatures were to swarm towards them, then a tiny city like Ice City could not survive their stampede at all.
No matter how much Bing Li loved this city, she had to also consider the lives of those citizens who lived here.
“There are so many people in the city right now, how does King Chu intend to migrate them out of here?” asked Bing Li.
“I have already called over a large number of experts from Tianxia City, Snow City and Xiang Rong City. The New Moon Navy is also rushing towards this place as we speak. They will be in charge of transferring the people. Citizens from Ice City will be temporarily under the care of Snow City,” explained Chu Mu.
“What about those monsters?” After finding out that there were over a thousand Dominator rank creatures lurking deep inside the mountain, she felt even more anxious.
“I will clean them all up,” replied Chu Mu.
Chu Mu had always been training himself through battles. It would be difficult for them to resolve this disaster without Chu Mu personally participating in it. It was also a perfect opportunity for him to receive good training. After all, apart from the time when he was in Imprint Valley, it was really difficult for him to find a place with such a large scale Dominator rank army.
Of course, Chu Mu also knew that it was difficult for him to completely finish off such a large number of iceberg monsters all by himself. It was necessary to let the New Moon Navy sortie too.
New Moon Navy was not only proficient in naval warfare, the glacier warfare was also their expertise. With the New Moon Navy around, it would be easier for Chu Mu to clean them all up.
Considering his property being suppressed by Extreme Sky Ice Beast, he had intended to ask Martial Cloud Dragon for help.
Martial Cloud Dragon was also a battle maniac just like him. Recently, it had been living peacefully in Wanxiang City, but it would need to exercise a little occasionally.
......
Chu Mu informed Mu Qingyi of his plans and immediately headed towards Wanxiang City to make a request to Martial Cloud Dragon.
It did not take him a long time to go from Ice City to Wanxiang City. Seeing that it was already late into the night when he reached, he did not want to disturb Martial Cloud Dragon and decided to return to his own residence to take a rest himself. He would set off again after recovering some of his stamina.
Right after Chu Mu entered his room, he heard delightful giggles from two girls.
“Big sister, don’t you think that big brother is a little dumb?” Ning Maner’s crispy voice could be heard clearly.
“Him? He’s not really dumb, he just knows how to pretend to be dumb,” replied Ye Qingzi with a confident tone.
“Why is he pretending to be dumb?” asked Ning Maner.
“If he doesn’t pretend to be dumb, then there will be many dumb girls like you who will end up liking him,” teased Ye Qingzi.
“When did I ever like him? He always makes such a stern face. He also often scolded me in the past and wouldn’t play with me. He even calls me a lass all the time! Big sister, help me buy some pretty and revealing clothes some day. Big brother will definitely peek at me secretly then......” said Ning Maner.
“You little, what are you trying to do?”
“I’m just testing big brother’s faithfulness.”
“Is that how you plan to test him? If you present yourself before him like that, then be careful because he will really eat you one day. Don’t complain to me then, I can’t stop him if that happens,” said Ye Qingzi half jokingly.
Chu Mu could feel cold sweat dripping down his forehead after he heard that.
What the heck are these two women talking about? Ning Maner had been revealing her original mischievous personality more and more recently. However. she was indeed quite a beauty now, even Chu Mu did not dare to become overly intimate when interacting with her. Now she was even discussing with Ye Qingzi on how to seduce him!
Ye Qingzi’s words had left Chu Mu speechless, it somehow made him feel as if she was giving him free reign.
Of course, Chu Mu knew that was only a private joking conversation between Ye Qingzi and Ning Maner, he could not take it seriously after all. Furthermore, when those two women were together, they would turn into little devils and Chu Mu would always suffer plenty from them.
Chu Mu pushed open the door and slowly entered the room, pretending not to have any idea about their previous conversation.
“You’re back?” Ye Qingzi popped her head out from the thin blanket and softly spoke.
The thin blanket covered her body snugly. She should be lying sideways as her beautiful curve could be traced out by the blanket.
“Hmm? You’re still chatting at this hour?” asked Chu Mu.
“How does big brother know that I’m here? I even held my breath,” Ning Maner also popped her head out from under the blanket and revealed her adorable face.
“Go back to your own room,” Chu Mu told Ning Maner.
“No!” Ning Maner was resolute. She held onto Ye Qingzi tightly and seemed determined to stay the night.
“I will be leaving tomorrow morning, so you can sleep with your big sister tomorrow,” said Chu Mu.
“No, there are many rooms free in the house, big brother can just pick one of them to sleep,” Ning Maner stuck to Ye Qingzi and refused to leave.
Chu Mu’s expression darkened. This little girl can be just so annoying at times. Don’t you know that Ye Qingzi and I are a married couple? Why are you always coming here to disrupt me from getting intimate with her?
Ye Qingzi remained silent. Seeing that both sides were not intending to compromise, she giggled instead, “Why don’t we sleep together then? Chu Mu, you can sleep here?”
Saying so, Ye Qingzi shifted her body a little and left a space at the center of the bed for Chu Mu.
Chu Mu opened his mouth wide and looked at Ye Qingzi in utter disbelief.
What are her intentions? Is she openly allowing me to flirt with other women?
Although Ye Qingzi had silently allowed the matter with Princess Jin Rou to slide, Chu Mu felt that it was the bottom line for her already. Yet now she was leaving a space on the bed which allowed him to sleep between Ning Maner and her......
Even the usually calm Chu Mu felt perplexed.
“Uh, I will just go sleep in another room,” Eventually, Chu Mu resisted the temptation and left.
Chu Mu realized that after marrying Qingzi, his female acquaintances had become stranger and stranger.
“Are you sure you don’t want to come?” Ye Qingzi raised her brows. Her sparkling beautiful eyes contained a trace of provocation within them.
“I don’t mind at all, what’s there for big brother to be worried about?” Ning Maner also added a dangerous line at this moment.
“I mind!” refused Chu Mu in a serious tone.
Who knows if these two are just setting up a trap for me?
Ye Qingzi might just instantly change her attitude after he got onto the bed, while Ning Maner shouts “I knew big brother had ulterior motives”. There was no need to intentionally jump into the trap set by those two little devils.
“Stop it, Maner, return to your room,” Ye Qingzi knew that Chu Mu was handling the matter in Ice City recently. She could tell from his mental state that he had recently been tiring himself out, so she stopped teasing him.
“What’s wrong with sleeping together? I can sleep at big sister’s side, and big brother can sleep at the corner,” pouted Ning Maner.
“Some wolves will still stretch their claws to the sheep even if their wives are watching,” said Ye Qingzi.
“That’s true,” Ning Maner nodded and got out of the bed slowly. She strolled towards Chu Mu with her bare feet and a semi-transparent sleepwear covering her.
Ning Maner closed the door after leaving the room and stopped teasing Chu Mu too.
After Ning Maner left, Chu Mu started undressing himself.
“Are you tired?” Ye Qingzi walked over and gently helped him undress.
“A little too many had died this time,” said Chu Mu.
“What’s wrong?” Ye Qingzi was startled.
“A creature from the Wind Palace has awakened. Qingzi, help me investigate something,” said Chu Mu.
“Alright.”
......
Chu Mu had exhausted quite the amount of stamina in the Ice City incident. He was going to be taking on that Extreme Sky Ice Beast next, so he needed to recover his strength as much as possible.
There were hundreds of thousands of people in the inner city of Ice City, their lives could be considered to be placed entirely in Chu Mu’s hands. He had to make sure that they would be safe.
