Chapter 39 - 39: Metamorphosis, Second Form
Cao Yi took a deep breath and snorted coldly, clearly feeling quite resentful towards Lord Xia. He had been furious just now, but had no choice but to forcibly suppress his anger now.
“Whoever lives with him, take him back. Listen, your lives are controlled by me, and only I can deprive you of them! Go back to your rooms, we’ll leave here in three days!” After Cao Yi roared, he immediately walked towards the outside of the camp!
The other Executors quickly followed Cao Yi and left the blood-stained camp.
“Lord Cao, why be so furious? This kid has been able to support the White Nightmare Demon for so long, so he must indeed be strong…” Gu Lei walked beside Cao Yi, speaking very quietly.
Cao Yi snorted coldly without saying anything, and continued to walk forward. Zeng Ze on the side glanced at Cao Yi and suddenly pulled Gu Lei, gesturing for him to stop.
After Cao Yi walked far away, Zeng Ze stared at Gu Lei and opened his mouth,
“You’ve been with Cao Yi for so long and you still don’t know his temperament. Cao Yi is extremely jealous and doesn’t want the members who were once under his instruction to achieve a higher position than him in the future. Chu Mu has managed to support the White Nightmare Demon for such a long time without dying, who knows if one day Lord Xia takes a fancy to him and dissolves his soul contract with the White Nightmare Demon and gives him a
Blue Nightmare Demon or something…”
“Lord Xia… we used to think this kid was just trash, but we didn’t expect him to be so strong.” Gu Lei said.
“This kid does have potential. In my opinion, Lord Xia won’t let him die. He might get a high position in the Demon Palace in the future. Gu Lei, think about it, how many years have the two of us been on these broken islands…” Zeng Ze lowered his voice.
Gu Lei wasn’t stupid and quickly understood Zeng Ze’s meaning, whispering,
“Then we…”
“Cao Yi is definitely trying to kill him now. If he wants to kill Chu Mu, we’ll protect him. We can report to Lord Xia when we have a chance, by then Cao Yi will die miserably, and we…” Zeng Ze’s smile surfaced.
Gu Lei also began to laugh!
Inside the camp
After Cao Yi’s thunderous rage, everyone’s faces were extremely ugly. It wasn’t until Cao Yi left that the others seemed to feel relieved.
“Chu Mu… Chu Mil…”
Ting Yu walked to Chu Mu’s side, pushing him a few times to see if she could wake him up.
As for the others, they just stood aside. After Cao Yi left, they all looked at the unconscious Chu Mu in trepidation.
Ting Yu couldn’t lift Chu Mu by herself, so she recited a spell and summoned the Thorn Rose Demon, letting it carry Chu Mu back to the wooden house.
“Ah? You’re awake. Sorry, I couldn’t lift you on my own and had to tie you up like this to bring you back…” Ting Yu just had the Thorn Rose Demon carry Chu Mu into the wooden house when he opened his eyes.
Chu Mu nodded, shaking his head to sweep away the remnants of the Spirit Suppression effect left in his brain.
In fact, Chu Mu hadn’t fainted. Cao Yi was a Soul Warrior, and Chu Mu was also a Soul Warrior. His Spirit Suppression could at most give Chu Mu a headache, it wouldn’t knock him out. Faking fainting was a tactic Chu Mu used to defuse the crisis.
“Are you alright?” Ting Yu poured a glass of water for Chu Mu and asked. Chu Mu patted the dust off his body and indifferently replied, “I’m fine.”
Seeing that Chu Mu wasn’t in the mood to talk, Ting Yu didn’t ask any more questions and went to do her own thing.
After washing himself and changing clothes, Chu Mu sat on the bed and began meditating. When Cao Yi used Spirit Suppression on Chu Mu, Chu Mu had also used some of his Soul Power to secretly resist. This Soul Power needed to be replenished immediately, as Chu Mu wasn’t sure when the Ninth Stage White Nightmare Demon would feed again.
Late at night, Chu Mu left the camp alone and went to the cliff overlooking the raging ocean again.
“Woo woo woo- ” MO Ye stood quietly beside Chu Mu, its silver fur reflecting the moonlight, giving it a somewhat eerie beauty.
Chu Mu sat on the edge of the cliff, stroking MO Ye’s soft fur, and slowly said, “You were too extreme back then, and we are not his opponent right now, so we have to endure…”
“Woo wooMO Ye let out a mournful howl, its agile eyes looking at the silver crescent moon on the surface of the sea.
“Don’t worry, what happened today will never happen again!” This humbling moment only fueled Chu Mu’s desire to become stronger!
MO Ye had a spiritual connection with Chu Mu, and it could feel Chu Mu’s anger at the time.
Its master had been humiliated, yet it couldn’t fight for him. Chu Mu’s eyes, staring at the silver moon, were also filled with the strongest desire! “Woo! !!!!” MO Ye raised its head and howled at the silver moon above the sea!
“In three days, we’ll be in another place…”
Chu Mu was about to speak but was interrupted by MO Ye’s extremely lofty cry.
“What’s wrong, MO Ye… MO Ye…” Chu Mu turned to look at MO Ye, but in the next moment, his eyes noticeably shifted!!
The silver moonlight shone on MO Ye’s body, its silver fur danced in the sea breeze, exuding a chilling air.
A radiant light flickered around its fur-covered body, and when it gathered together, it was somewhat dazzling!
The changes taking place startled Chu Mu, who stared in amazement at MO Ye, whose body was undergoing a significant transformation!
“This… This is metamorphosis!!!” Chu Mu exclaimed!
Every Soul Pet goes through countless growth stages after birth and, after every Ninth Stage of growth, there’s a complete metamorphosis!!!
At this moment, MO Ye was experiencing this metamorphosis stage, evolving from its first form to its second form!!
Unlike the increase in strength during growth, metamorphosis is a complete enhancement of strength. Be it body size, battle parts, strength, speed, defense, or various other abilities, there will be significant improvements!
MO Ye let out another proud howl, clashing with the seawater and echoing across the ocean surface!!
MO Ye’s sacred radiance grew stronger and stronger, and under the embrace of the moonlight, the claws in its paw pads suddenly extended, becoming longer and sharper!
