“What kind of joke is this? Just by letting some water go, they got a reward of 50 million. Are the officials in Li City all crazy?” Inside the room, when Ye Wansheng heard about Ye Qingzi getting the 50 million reward, his jaw almost hit the ground.

To Ye Wansheng, his soul pets were worth far more than the 50 million, but to get such a mysterious reward of 50 million, if he were to invest all of it into one soul pet, it would definitely greatly enhance the power of that soul pet.

“Half of it belongs to Chu Mu.” Ye Qingzi said.

“Even so, it’s still 25 million. Quickly tell me what happened.” Ye Wansheng hurriedly asked.

After several days of medicinal treatment, Ye Wansheng’s body had largely recovered, with only his skin still slightly green.

It had been more than three months since Ye Wansheng was poisoned and recovered, and this period was crucial for a young soul pet master. The most obvious consequence was that Ye Wansheng’s soul pets were no match for Ye Qingzi’s, and coupled with the death of Ye Wansheng’s strongest Battle Court Black Beast, Ye Wansheng’s strength had naturally declined.

Fortunately, Ye Wansheng didn’t sink into despair, and still appeared somewhat mad as usual.

“Some time ago, I refined some spirit items and sold them at the trading place. With this 25 million Gold Coins, I have saved up almost 50 million Gold Coins. In a few days, let’s go to the trading place and buy a powerful soul pet to fill the gap in your soul pets.” Ye Qingzi said to Ye Wansheng.

“You’ve become a rich woman.” Ye Wansheng said.

The stagnation of more than three months and the death of his soul pet indeed had caused significant damage to Ye Wansheng. If he didn’t make up for it quickly, even his own cultivation might suffer due to this gap and become difficult to increase further.

“If only you could reach the Soul Lord Level. We could directly buy Monarch Level soul pets.” Ye Qingzi said.

“Monarch Level… forget it. Just keep the money to strengthen your soul pets. I have another plan.” Ye Wansheng shook his head.

“Another plan?” Ye Qingzi looked puzzled at Ye Wansheng.

“Sigh, let’s talk about it later. Didn’t you say that Chu Chen is in the Soul Hall? That guy called Duan Xinhe is not a good guy. We’re not safe outside, so let’s go find him first.” Ye Wansheng said with a sense of vigilance.

Ye Qingzi had the same idea, since although they had received a high reward this time, they had also offended an enemy they couldn’t afford to provoke for now. They needed to seek protection from others for their safety.

Ye Wansheng rode his Starfield Devil Steed while Ye Qingzi rode her Purple Robe Dream Beast heading towards the Soul Hall.

On their way, Chu Mu was also going to look for Ye Qingzi. When he saw the siblings approaching, he smiled and said, “Quite in sync.”

Chu Mu led the two siblings back to the Soul Hall. Not long after, Dongqing came over specially, saying he wanted to invite Chu Mu to the City Lord Mansion.

Chu Mu had planned to go to the City Lord Mansion after meeting with the Ye siblings. Because the deputy palace master had mentioned that the city lord would gather all the major figures from the various major powers that came to Li City, and break the news about the Qingzhe Dragon, so as not to let the major powers plot conspiracies in Li City.

The invited powers included Soul Hall, Soul Covenant, Elemental Gate, Business Association, Nightmare Demon Palace, Soul Pet Palace, Li City Aristocratic Families, and many others who were watching closely. Among them, Lord Yu and several influential figures from World City of the Soul Hall were originally here to handle the trial of Yu Lang’s death. But they just happened to be involved in the matter of the Qingzhe Dragon, so the big-picture-oriented Lord Yu could only put the trial aside for the time being, take up the power of Li City Soul Hall, and begin searching for the Qingzhe Dragon.

The Soul Covenant’s influence was not very widespread. However, almost all the people who could enter the Soul Covenant were very famous soul pet masters in the soul pet world. These soul pet masters could be said to stand at the top of the entire soul pet field, and they controlled almost the most powerful soul pets in the world!

Soul Covenant had only a few settlements and cities, and no widespread membership throughout the world. However, this power was like a supreme ruler looking down on the entire soul pet world. Once a major event occurred, the people of the Soul Covenant would definitely appear!

As an alliance of all major trading places, Business Association handled almost every transaction in the world through its hands. Business Association was also one of the wealthiest powers. If the existence of the Soul Pet Palace was not taken into account, the position of the Business Association would be on par with the Four Great Powers of Soul Hall, Nightmare Demon Palace, Soul Pet Palace, and Soul Covenant.

The Business Association also occupied a place in Li City. Naturally, they wanted a share of this Qingzhe Dragon event.

As the most feared power in the soul pet field, Nightmare Demon Palace never let go of any profitable major events.

The Nightmare Demon Palace’s residence in Li City is also located at the central square, seemingly directed specifically at Soul Hall with whom they have unresolved grievances with thousands of people. The Nightmare Demon Palace faces directly across from Soul Hall, on opposite sides of the square, so that whenever you walk out from one of the powerhouses’ main gates, you can see the other as your eyes sweep across the impressive expanse of the plaza.

The style of the Nightmare Demon Palace is also the opposite of Soul Hall. Soul Hall adheres to a sense of sacred solemnity, while the Nightmare Demon Palace always carries a sense of domineering pride and arrogance.

There is no small grudge between Soul Hall and Nightmare Demon Palace. Generally speaking, in cities where the Nightmare Demon Palace’s palace is located, Soul Hall’s palaces would not appear. Similarly, in cities where Soul Hall is established, Nightmare Demon Palace residences are rarely seen.

Of course, this is relative to the cities that are affiliated. In the case of Boundary City, which is a Tier 11 authority city, these two major powers must occupy a seat despite their grievances, while also secretly contending for resources.

The Elemental Gate’s position in Li City is no less prominent than that of other major powers, as the Vice City Master of Li City is also the Gate Master of the Li City Elemental Gate.

If not for the powers of the Gate Master of Li City Elemental Gate, Yu He, who was implicated in Yu Lang’s death, would probably still be under house arrest in Soul Hall by now. Instead, he can walk around Li City as if nothing has happened.

Under normal circumstances, Chu Mu would not have participated in a meeting between the top characters of the soul pet world, as he simply hadn’t reached their level yet.

However, this matter involved the Azure Sky Hidden Dragon, and with so many experts gathered in Li City, Chu Mu was genuinely worried for it. So when the deputy palace master mentioned that he would be participating in the gathering of all the forces, Chu Mu decided to participate without hesitation.

“Chu Chen, Ye Qingzi, my father will mention the matter about the wicked Duan Xinhe at the meeting. You could say this is a chance for you to make a name for yourselves. You should know that the people who have gathered here for the meeting are all important figures. As long as they know who you are, your reputation in the soul pet world will surely spread quickly.” Dongqing said as he led the way for Chu Mu and the others.

When Dongqing said this, the Ye siblings and Chu Mu frowned.

Chu Mu was the first to speak, “You can mention Duan Xinhe, but as for our names, you can forget about it. We have reasons for not revealing our identities.”

“Are you worried about Duan Xinhe taking revenge? You don’t have to be. This time, my father is really going to get rid of this guy. Either Duan Xinhe will have to hide for a few years or the moment he appears, he will be courting death. You don’t have to worry about it.” Dongqing said.

Chu Mu shook his head and said, “Please tell the City Master, we are not the kind of people who like to show off and are used to wandering around.”

“Well… alright then, I’ll respect your opinion.” Dongqing nodded.

Dongqing also understood that some young generation experts, especially those who liked to practice outside, would only reveal their real names when they engaged in battles or challenged others. Normally, they prefer to be low-key when they travel to various big cities, even when they accomplished astonishing feats.

“Chu Mu, why didn’t you ask us first? You, a Soul Hall Young Master, already have a high enough social status. Both Qingzi and I are mere followers from the market, so this is such a good opportunity to become famous. How could you reject it so easily? I also want to become famous and be admired by countless young ladies.” Ye Wansheng jokingly said through soul sense.

Chu Mu naturally assumed that Ye Wansheng was joking since from his observations, both Ye Qingzi and Ye Wansheng were very low-key and rarely revealed their identities and names directly. Thus, Chu Mu didn’t think twice and directly declined Dongqing’s proposal.

Chu Mu couldn’t quite understand why the siblings, despite their considerable strength, seemed to be hiding something.

There was still a short distance from the Li City Lord Mansion. Chu Mu directly sent a soul sense message to inquire about Ye Qingzi, wanting to know if the siblings had any unspeakable secrets.

“This… I’ll tell you later. On the other hand, I find it strange that, as a Soul Hall Young Master, you are even more secretive than us. Including in this meeting, you could have participated as the Young Master but still asked Dongqing to lead the way… I have known you for so long, and I still don’t know which Young Master you are. I heard that there are nine Soul Hall Young Masters, of which seven have extremely strong strength. Several of them are even high-level experts that have already transcended the ranks of the younger generation…” Ye Qingzi asked in return.

Chu Mu smiled bitterly. He couldn’t find out the details of Ye Qingzi, and the questioning was turned around by Ye Qingzi.

This time, Ye Qingzi didn’t maintain her usual calm demeanor and instead questioned Chu Mu multiple times, leaving him unsure how to explain his identity to her.

“And also, a few days ago, you specifically asked me not to call you by your real name. The name ‘Chu Mu’ may be well-known in the Western World, but there shouldn’t be many people in the Zhanli Realm who recognize it. It doesn’t seem like there’s any need to worry about it, right?” Ye Qingzi continued to pursue the matter.

In fact, it was not the Soul Hall Young Master’s identity that truly troubled Chu Mu but rather his own. After all, the dragon egg incident nearly had Chu Mu’s identity as the Prison Island King sealed. (To be continued.
