Chapter 652
Chapter 543: An Existence that Surpa.s.ses Emperors
"Of course, Chu Tianmang’s words weren’t the real reason behind why you were born. The truth was that Her Majesty was doted on by the seven senior elders, as if she was their daughter. The senior elders couldn’t bear using such a cruel and ancient law to persecute someone who was about to invest her life into Soul Palace. Your father’s words gave them a logical reason to pardon her… in reality, our Soul Palace has always honored humanism!" laughed Old Soul Teacher De.
"So this is what happened. Then what happened next? Why was my father imprisoned next?" Chu Mu asked somewhat impatiently.
"This… this, I don’t know much about." said Old Soul Teacher De.
Evidently, the news about Chu Tianmang being imprisoned had been sealed. Chu Mu would not be able to obtain clear information from anyone.
"Chu Chen, there’s a chance our Soul Palace will not publicize your ident.i.ty as the tenth young master. You had best prepare yourself for this, but you must trust that none of the senior elders will harm you. Further, they will also do their utmost to protect you. Even if you cause so much trouble to Nightmare Palace that you turn them on their head, the senior elders will be able to stand forth, and will prevent everyone from doing anything to you. However, there is one thing you must avoid. There is a faction that you absolutely cannot touch…" Old Soul Teacher De’s tone turned serious.
"Yes. Although Soul Alliance’s influence isn’t huge, they contain a few existences who are so strong us that us senior elders can only look up to them. Therefore, no matter what, you absolutely cannot touch Soul Alliance…" Old Soul Teacher De’s words were heavy.
Chu Mu looked at Old Soul Teacher De. For some reason, he felt that Old Soul Teacher De was talking more today than usual. It was as if he intentionally wanted to tell him something. This made Chu Mu feel strange.
"I understand, I’ll be careful." Chu Mu nodded his head but didn’t say anything further.
How strong was Soul Alliance? Why could this faction make Soul Palace and Nightmare Palace that had practically unified all regions and domains feel this fear? Had they already reached a level where they could cover the skies with one hand?
"Then you should go back and rest. Prepare yourself for the ninth realm." said Old Soul Teacher De.
Chu Mu nodded his head. After giving a salute, he went to his residence.
Old Soul Teacher De watched Chu Mu leave with a complicated expression.
He waited for Chu Mu to walk far away before he slowly asked: "Senior elder, by telling him this much, will this give him too much pressure? After all, at his current strength… it wouldn’t be too late to tell him about this after he’s 30 years old."
A man wearing a milky white robe gradually walked out from the side and he shook his head as he said: "I’m afraid that he won’t even make it to 30 before turning out like his father. He doesn’t understand how to restrain himself."
"Haha, I feel that although Chu Mu causes other people trouble and causes trouble in general, he understands what he can and cannot do better than Chu Tianmang did when he was young." laughed Old Soul Teacher De.
"I hope that is the case… I’m afraid most of another matter now though." the senior elder said in a low voice.
"What is it?" Old Soul Teacher De asked, confused.
"This is a bit tricky. I’ll tell you about it later." said the senior elder.
……
After Chu Mu returned to his residence, he sat alone in the stone pavilion in his courtyard. As he sat there, he thought of the things Old Soul Teacher De had intentionally emphasized.
"Could he be telling me that aside from Xia Guanghan, people from Soul Alliance have already detected Mo Xie’s existence?" Chu Mu muttered to himself.
Today, Old Soul Teacher De had told him everything about Liu Binglan’s status. This was clearly to tell him that he could do whatever he wanted wherever he went; however, Soul Alliance could not be provoked!
If Old Soul Teacher De had only told him this because of Chu Tianmang’s affairs, Chu Mu could be more at ease. However, if this matter involved Mo Xie and the Empyrean Cyan Hidden Dragon, then Chu Mu was in trouble. This was because Chu Mu had heard that in Tianxia City, the head of the four seats, Tian Ting, was a supreme expert from Soul Alliance!
"Old Li, exactly how strong are those people Old Soul Teacher De referred to?" Chu Mu earnestly asked.
