Supreme Tamer

Chapter 599: Chapter 470: Escaping, Hostage Exchange (Part 2)

The diameter of the flat-top mountain peak was less than a hundred meters, with many fragmented rocks and strange cracks distributed across its surface.

The peak was very high, with cold and fierce winds constantly blowing. The loose rocks on the mountain peak could easily roll and even slide down the steep mountainside.

At this moment, at the side of the peak, the enchantingly graceful Princess Jinrou stood on the towering summit. Apart from her stunning beauty, there was also a touch of solemnity and an air of killing about her.

There were two demon fox imperial clan members beside Princess Jinrou – the Ice Crystal Curse Marked Fox Demon, an enemy of destiny, and the Nine-Tailed Crown Flame Fox. Both demon foxes had imposing airs, and their ice-blue and silver eyes glared intently at the person across from them.

Opposite Princess Jinrou stood a woman with an equally exquisite and perfect figure. She calmly observed Princess Jinrou, and it was impossible to discern any fluctuations in her emotions.

Both women wore veils, and both were peerlessly beautiful, creating an extraordinary scenery atop the towering peak.

“The person in your hands is of little importance to me, just a pawn. I won’t make an exchange. If you offer yourself in exchange for him, I might consider it.” The veiled female leader was the first to speak.

Upon hearing her words, Shen Yicheng’s face turned pale. He wanted to plead with the veiled female leader, but the veiled woman glared at him, and he didn’t dare to say a word.

“I also don’t think the person in your hands matters much to me. I just need someone to ensure my safety while I pass through this seventh realm.” Princess Jinrou responded defiantly.

Upon hearing Princess Jinrou’s words, Chu Mu’s mouth twitched slightly. Her words were really unpleasant to hear…

Of course, Chu Mu knew that this was Princess Jinrou’s negotiation tactic, not a disregard for his life and death.

“Princess, Shen Yicheng is definitely useful to them. No matter how tough her stance is, if you maintain a don’t-release-him-then-kill-him attitude, victory will ultimately be ours.” Chu Mu communicated with Princess Jinrou using soul sense.

Upon hearing Chu Mu’s soul sense voice, Princess Jinrou was taken aback and opened her small mouth in surprise. She also used soul sense to ask Chu Mu, “How come they didn’t seal your soul sense?”

“My body is different from that of ordinary people. Common seals can’t control me.” Chu Mu replied.

Chu Mu had anticipated such a situation when he allowed himself to be captured. He used Mo Ye’s racial skill to break through the deputy leader’s seal on his soul sense, then sealed himself to make them believe he had lost his ability to attack. Chu Mu could still use soul skills but didn’t dare to act rashly without knowing the female leader’s strength.

Princess Jinrou didn’t expect Chu Mu to be so well-prepared. She continued to be tough during the negotiation with the veiled female leader.

“Hmph, release him.” The veiled woman had no intention of killing Chu Mu, but she felt at least Chu Mu proved she couldn’t control his life and death now, causing her to be very uncomfortable.

Chu Mu didn’t leave right away. He looked at the veiled woman and spoke, “Marionette, whatever your goals are for The World Decree, as long as I, Chu Chen, am here, you will ultimately fail!”

“I am not a marionette. You’re provoking me. Even if she doesn’t want to kill you, I will destroy you. Don’t be ungrateful!” The veiled female leader said coldly.

Chu Mu wasn’t afraid of this female marionette. He could ascertain that the female marionette’s strength couldn’t reach a terrifying level. Otherwise, she wouldn’t need people to follow her and help her break through realms.

Chu Mu walked towards Princess Jinrou’s position.

“Woo woo woo~~~~~~~~~~”

When Mo Ye saw Chu Mu coming, it called out. Chu Mu smiled and quickly went to Mo Ye, patting its fur and saying, “Good job.”

After that, Chu Mu glanced at Shen Yicheng, who was halfway to him, and a cold smile appeared on his face.

The veiled female leader looked at Chu Mu, who had just walked to Princess Jinrou’s side, and saw Shen Yicheng being slowly escorted over by the Ice Crystal Curse Marked Fox Demon. She used her soul sense to tell the two people beside her, “Once Shen Yicheng is safe, attack immediately. It doesn’t matter whether Chu Chen gets away or not, but we must capture the Little Princess of the Nightmare Demon Palace.”

“Understood.” The youth surnamed Pan nodded immediately and had his huge Bat Lord Blood Beast ready to attack at any moment.

Another young person was murmuring spells; once the Ice Crystal Curse Marked Fox Demon withdrew, he would certainly summon his main pet as quickly as possible!

…

“Let’s leave quickly.” Princess Jinrou whispered to Chu Mu.

Neither of them could discern the strength of their four opponents, so Princess Jinrou knew it wasn’t a good idea to linger.

“The two people beside that woman are very strong. Even if we can escape, we might still be in trouble later. Help me buy a few seconds.” Chu Mu spoke to Princess Jinrou using his soul sense.

Princess Jinrou asked doubtfully, “What are you going to do?”

“Do as I say. They are after you, and I don’t want you to fall into their hands,” Chu Mu said seriously.

Princess Jinrou was stupefied, not quite understanding why Chu Mu suddenly spoke so firmly.

Without thinking too much, Princess Jinrou followed Chu Mu’s instructions and quickly recited a spell when the Ice Crystal Curse Marked Fox Demon returned, summoning a defensive Soul Pet.

The return of the Ice Crystal Curse Marked Fox Demon was like a battle signal, and both sides standing on the mountain peaks quickly recited their spells!

Chu Mu’s spell was very fast. In fact, he had already prepared it beforehand. When Princess Jinrou started reciting her spell, Chu Mu had already completed the summon!

A soul flame completely different from the white charm demon flame burned within Chu Mu’s body, rapidly engulfing his entire body and transforming him into a flame demon. The chilling cold aura of the different attribute and dark attribute surged in all directions, instantly covering the entire flat-top mountain!

Veiled Female Leader, the young expert surnamed Pan, the powerful man in blue clothes, the deputy assassin leader, and Shen Yicheng all began their summoning slower than Chu Mu’s preparedness. When they started reciting their spells, they immediately felt a chilling cold penetrating their souls!

“White Demon!” Chu Mu shouted in a high voice, stepping back with his body burning in demon flames!

The eerie demon flame quickly transformed into Chu Mu’s shadow, standing imposingly in front of him with a terrifying grin, its gaze completely different from any other living creature fixed on the five opponents!

The white charm demon flame was no longer present, but the newly ignited demon flame was still white. However, this white was permeated with the coldest feeling, like the pale color of a cold moon or the icy white of a cold pool, with a touch of eerily silvery white!

“This… This is the fourth-level demon flame power crystal – Nine Netherworld Demon Flame!” Fox Elder’s astonished voice came out.

Cold as the Nine Netherworlds, even the slightest touch could instantly turn a weak soul into ice-cold ashes within the bone-chilling Nine Netherworld Demon Flame!!

The appearance of the Nine Netherworld Demon Flame meant that the White Nightmare Demon had truly stepped onto the High-Level Monarch stage!

“Ninth Rank Second Stage – High-Level Monarch – White Nightmare Demon!!” Seeing Chu Mu summon a White Nightmare Demon wielding the Nine Netherworld Demon Flame, astonishment filled Princess Jinrou’s beautiful eyes, and her spell was almost disrupted by the powerful aura released by the formidable White Nightmare Demon!

The face of Master Pan, who had once looked down on Chu Mu, became noticeably uglier. His Bat Lord Blood Beast had reached the Ninth Rank High Stage – Mid-Level Monarch. Though the High-Level Monarch was two stages stronger than the Mid-Level Monarch, this gap was bridged by the difference between stages and levels, making them evenly matched.

However, Master Pan knew that the multi-attribute White Nightmare Demon, with its soul demon flames and abnormal abilities, was inherently higher in battle power than other Soul Pets.

It could be said that, in actual combat, his strongest Soul Pet, the Bat Lord Blood Beast, might not be a match for the Nine Netherworld Demon Flame White Nightmare Demon!

“This… how is it possible…” Staring at the wildly powerful Ninth Rank High-Level Monarch, Shen Yicheng was completely dumbfounded. He never imagined that Chu Mu, a member of the Soul Hall, would actually possess a White Nightmare Demon so powerful that it made one’s soul tremble!

That was a genuine High-Level Monarch!!! Even the ultimate reward for the second-tier was only a High-Level Monarch young pet, yet Chu Mu already had a High-Level Monarch rank White Nightmare Demon!!

“Roar!!!!!!!!!!”

“Roar!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!”

The appearance of the White Nightmare Demon with the Nine Netherworld Demon Flame made the bloodthirsty aura of the young surnamed Pan’s Bat Lord Blood Beast completely suppressed, not daring to take even half a step forward.

When the White Nightmare Demon let out the roar, it also conveyed a message to Chu Mu!

This message was extremely important to Chu Mu, making a wave of zeal swell within his heart!

“Thirteen Hell Flames!!!” Chu Mu shouted with wild joy!

Thirteen Hell Flames, after reaching the Ninth Rank Second Stage – High-Level Monarch, the White Nightmare Demon had actually mastered the level eight fire attribute skill – Thirteen Hell Flames after its slumber!

Without Chu Mu’s command, the White Nightmare Demon, with its soaring aura, had already begun preparing the spell!

“Mo Ye! Thirteen Hell Flames!!!” Chu Mu issued the order!!

Having cooperated with Chu Mu for many years, Mo Ye naturally knew what his master was thinking! Chu Mu intended to merge three extremely powerful fire attribute skills and unleash a fire attribute attack with the strongest destructive power!!

“Woo woo woo woo!!!!!!!!!!!!!” Mo Ye also let out a roar, its Double Crown Flame burning hot as it prepared the eighth-level fire attribute skill – Thirteen Hell Flames alongside the White Demon!!!
