Chapter 152: Chapter 34: The Suffering of Ethnic Groups

Abandoned pets, once bound by soul contracts to humans, but later released from their contracts.

Such a situation with abandoned pets can be both common and uncommon in the world of soul pets.

It is common because as human strength improves, some earlier soul pets become unable to keep up with their masters due to factors like aptitude and level. Once their combat effectiveness is greatly diminished, masters may discard their soul pets, typically by releasing them from their soul contracts.

It is uncommon because whether being released or when a soul pet dies, the soul needs a year to recover. During this year, the space reserved for abandoned pets cannot accommodate new pets, and only after a year can new contracts be signed for that soul.

For example, if this stubborn little MO Ye was Chu Mu's eighth soul contract (the second pet of his third soul), after terminating the contract, his soul would sustain damage and take a year to recover. During this time, his Soul Power would never be full, and he wouldn't be able to sign another contract witn anotner soul pet ror tnat soul until a year nas passea.

This cost can be considered quite significant, so Soul Pet Masters prefer to spend money on things like soul crystals, medicinal herbs, attribute stones, and equipment to make up for their soul pets' deficiencies, rather than unbinding the soul contract easily.

“So, that's why you want to be acknowledged by humans?” Chu Mu didn't immediately cast the contract spell for the second time. Instead, he reached out and gently stroked the cracked forehead of the stubborn little MO Ye.

All soul pets have their souls and dignity. It was obvious that this abandoned little MO Ye's pride had been severely hurt by its former master a year ago. Despite facing powerful opponents now, it had a tenacious will to keep fighting as though death didn't matter. It wanted to prove that it wasn't as weak as others saw it!

“Roar—” The little MO Ye let out a low growl, stubbornly shaking off Chu Mu's hand, seemingly not liking humans touching it.

“People are different, and my chosen soul pets, even if they have significant physical defects, once I sign a contract with them, I will never give up on them and will always make them stronger,” Chu Mu said earnestly.

“Roar—” The little MO Ye let out a stubborn roar.

Obviously, the little MO Ye didn't agree with Chu Mu's words. It turned around, stepped forward with its injured body, and slowly walked toward the depths of the forest. The fresh blood -stained, ink-colored body left Chu Mu a lonely and proud silhouette under the shadow of trees…

“You just let it go like that?” Qin Meng'er asked.

Watching the MO Ye leave with a prideful heart, Qin Meng'er didn't understand why Chu Mu didn't forcibly bind the soul contract with it. Under such circumstances, even if the stubborn little MO Ye had a resistant heart, it should have been successful.

“It has a psychological shadow towards humans. Even if I force a contract, the shadow will always be there. If it cannot be resolved, it cannot cooperate with me thoroughly. The strength of a soul pet is crucial, but if it cannot communicate spiritually with the Soul Pet Master, it would also create a significant constraint…” Chu Mu replied.

“Moreover, soul pets have their lives and souls. They are not human servants. Whether they are strong or weak, their dignity and choices are highly respectable,” Chu Mu slowly said.

Qin Meng'er was stunned and didn't expect Chu Mu to say such words. She gazed at Chu Mu with a serious expression and suddenly felt that the way he spoke made her feel familiar and admire him. She couldn't help the feeling of heartache and thought of some past events…

Chu Mu slowly approached the excellent MO Ye that had passed out but didn't chant the contract spell either. Instead, he opened the Soul Capture Ring and collected this valuable little creature.

With the stubborn little MO Ye gone, Chu Mu could only choose the excellent MO Ye. However, he didn't plan to make this creature his soul pet, as he had a premonition that the stubborn little MO Ye would reappear in front of him.

As both the Demon Tree Warrior and MO Ye returned to Chu Mu's side, each holding the soul cores of the other two MO Ye's, Chu Mu withdrew the Demon Tree Warrior back into the Soul Pet Space and restored MO Ye to Chu Lian's state, before deciding to continue forward towards Gangluo City. He suddenly noticed that Qin Meng'er was standing there, wiping away her tears stealthily…

“What's wrong, crying again?” Chu Mu walked to her side and asked doubtfully.

“Just now… What you said just now reminded me of my Brother Chu Mu…

Although he didn't have a single soul pet, he respected each one very much. If…

If he were still alive, he would have been a great Soul Pet Master.” Qin

Meng'er's sadness grew as she spoke, and her tears became uncontrollable.

Chu Mu hesitated, looking at the girl who cried pitifully for him, and stretched out his hand to wipe her tears. He said: “Then treat me as him.”

“No! You're a person from Nightmare Demon Palace, a villain who feeds his soul pets with other people's lives! You're not like him!” Qin Meng'er immediately shook her head, stubbornly wiping away her own tears.

Chu Mu hesitated for a moment and then understood that Qin Meng'er must have seen the white demonic flame on his body when he was feeding Soul Power to the White Nightmare Demon.

Chu Mu felt bitter, and though he originally planned to tell Qin Meng'er that he was Chu Mu, he decided there was no need.

Chu Mu indeed didn't find MO Ye Forest too complicated; after traversing it one time, he already learned how to navigate it.

Once he determined his direction, Chu Mu took Qin Meng'er with him and headed out of MO Ye Forest. According to Chu Mu's estimation, once they left the forest and kept going east, they should be very close to Gangluo City.

“Hoot-

In the forest, a sudden clamor erupted.

Chu Mu immediately halted his steps, his gaze piercing through the dense trees towards the chaotic intertwining energies of various attributes not far ahead.

“What's wrong?” Qin Meng'er, whose perception abilities were clearly not as good as Chu Mu's, asked puzzledly when she saw him stop.

“There are quite a few people who seem to have fallen into the encirclement of a group of soul pet herds.” Without summoning his soul pet, Chu Mu cast Riding Wind on himself and jumped directly onto the tree crown, looking down at the forest ahead.

In front of them were a group of people dressed in blue-black and dark brown clothing. Each of them possessed a Commander Level soul pet and also controlled two other powerful soul pets.”

However, these people clearly did not know the ways of jungle survival. As soon as they encountered danger, they summoned all their soul pets, but the more they summoned, the more the beast herd called out to its companions, surrounding this part of the forest so densely that no water could leak through.

“Chu Family Guards?” Chu Mu quickly identified the soul pet master team wearing blue-black clothes.

These blue-black clothes were a more distinct symbol of the Chu Family Guards, a group of guards comprised entirely of Soul Masters, each member meticulously selected and strictly trained, absolutely loyal to the Chu Family.

“Second Uncle, Uncle Chu Si?” With his excellent vision, Chu Mu spotted the familiar faces of Chu Tianlin and Chu Si amid the chaos of the soul pet battle.

Over the four years, the changes in these two people were not significant, but as he could still recognize them despite the additional wrinkles on their faces.

Chu Mu could naturally guess that the people wearing dark brown clothes were from the Qin Family. The Qin Family had always been friendly with the Chu Family, and their arrival at Broken Forest with the Chu Family Guards was most likely to retrieve Qin Meng'er.

Both the Chu Family Guards and the Qin Family people were in trouble at the moment, so Chu Mu naturally had to find a way to rescue them…

“What happened ahead?” Qin Meng'er asked as she saw Chu Mu jump down from the tree crown.

“It's the people from the Chu Family and your Qin Family. They are probably here searching for us, but they are surrounded by a fierce wolf pack.” Chu Mu replied.

“Ah? A fierce wolf pack!” Qin Meng'er was immediately in a panic.

Fierce wolves are servant-level creatures, but they often live in groups. The appearance of hundreds or thousands of them can be quite terrifying, and even powerful soul pets can be devoured to the bone.

“You go in this direction, and stop about two hundred meters away. Summon your Flame Bird. When you see the Demon Fire Evil Flame shoot up, immediately have your Flame Bird release a Rain of Fire, burning that part of the forest. If you have any other Fire Series soul pets, you can also summon them and create a strong fire as quickly as possible,” Chu Mu said.

Without hesitation, Qin Meng'er nodded and ran in the direction Chu Mu had pointed out.

“MO Ye, it's your turn.” Chu Mu patted MO Ye who then understood his intentions. He hopped off Chu Mu's shoulder and swiftly leaped into the wolf pack, his petite body darting rapidly through the fierce wolves.

After MO Ye left, Chu Mu re-summoned his Demon Tree Warrior, who would be at his strongest in forest combat.

With the Demon Tree Warrior standing by nearby, Chu Mu immediately jumped close to where Chu Family Guards and the others were, without alerting any of the fierce wolves.

“I am Chu Chen from Great Chu Noble Family. Listen to my arrangements, I will help you get out of this predicament.” Chu Mu conveyed his voice through Soul Sense into the ears of the encircled Chu Family Guards and Qin Family team members.

Chu Tianlin was the first to receive the information, and his eyes immediately lit up as he searched the wolf-infested forest for the savior.

When he discovered Chu Mu's figure on a tree crown, he was taken aback.

This young man was standing beneath a tree surrounded by a large number of fierce wolves, yet they couldn't detect his presence at all- as if he could completely merge into the surrounding environment!
