The Charm of Soul Pets - Chapter 1178

Chapter 1178: 1178

This morning, Xu Daofeng sat in the hall waiting .

Chu Mu was also slightly confused at this fellow’s appearance . Xu Daofeng wasn’t just normally diligent . He must have come before he even had breakfast .

“You really came too early . She’s still doing the last steps . ” Chu Mu walked by Xu Daofeng and said .

Ye Qingzi had already completed it . He didn’t immediately hand it over so Chu Mu could get information from him easier .

“I got excited, too hurried . ” Xu Daofeng said slightly embarrassed . “Teacher told me to head towards the Territory Court later . Can I come back in the afternoon?”

“I’m going to the Territory Court as well, perfect . You can help lead the way and then come back with me once you’re done your things . She should be done by then . ” Chu Mu said .

Xu Daofeng nodded . Going to the Territory Court wasn’t anything secret, so he might as well bring Chu Mu .

“Chu Mu, where do you come from?” Xu Daofeng asked . Since CHu Mu Didn't even know that the city had 46 cities, he definitely wasn’t one of the cloud realm .

“I come from New Moon Ground . ” Chu Mu didn’t hide this at all because Xu Feng would definitely find out once he applied for territorial independence, so might as well tell him earlier .

“New Moon Ground?” Xu Daofeng looked confused as if he never heard of it .

But thinking about it closer, he suddenly remembered that there was a crescent like territory called New Moon Ground at the south most side of cloud realm, surrounded by heavenly mountain and the forbidden realm .

That was a barren land . With the poor environment, it was hard to find talent from people born there . Adding on that everyone there seemed to be warrior rank human beings, finding a dominator rank would be even harder .

Because of this, Xu Daofeng specially looked over Chu Mu and thought, “Could this fellow not be dominator rank yet?”

Xu Daofeng shook his head again . Ye Qingzi was a xuan teacher . As the husband of a xuan teacher, there was no reason for him to be unable to even reach dominator rank .

“I have never been, but I heard it’s pretty sealed off?” Xu Daofeng said .

“Indeed, the people there basically didn’t know Cloud Realm exists, nor Divine Sect . ” Chu Mu said .

“Oh…… so it really is very sealed off, probably due to its geography . ” Xu Daofeng said .    

While talking, the two of them had already reached the Territory Court .

The Territory Court was an institution that specialized in managing the territory of personal, faction, and organisation land . Chu Mu this time came because he really had something to do . He wanted to know who New Moon Ground was owned by and understand who he was up against .

“Can  you help me look up New Moon Ground’s owner?” Chu Mu walked by the young girl reading a book and asked .

The girl didn’t really want to care about him and put down her book without much attention . Slowly flipping open a large dictionary like book, she asked, “What place again?”

“New Moon Ground . ” Chu Mu repeated .

The young girl adeptly flipped the book to the last few pages and pushed it to the edge of the table for Chu Mu to look at . “Look at it yourself, ask me if you don’t get it . ”

Chu Mu took the book over to find a large map containing a slender crescent .

“New Moon Ground, named after its crescent like shape . It’s between Eternal Ocean, Dark Sky Ocean, Hibernating Desolation Empire, and Heavenly Mountain Range . It’s habitated by Normal Person Subspecies . It’s a third rank realm . ”

There were brief descriptions under the map . After that, it was like a textbook, listing common soul pets within the territory, most of it being beast world .

After that was a list of New Moon Ground’s history . Interestingly enough, this book about New Moon Ground’s history was very empty . It had an explanation, which was that because it was surrounded on all four sides, managers had a hard time getting in, causing a break of connection for a very long time .

Only after a Border master’s soul pet broke the heavenly mountain with a single sword and left a cloud gate did it reappear in front of everyone's eyes . Commanders were gradually sent in then .

The first manager was a person in Mu Family that made a mistake, and was sent to New Moon Ground .

The following people were all people that Chu Mu didn’t recognize .

“New Moon Ground is currently governed by Li Clan of the Li Xu bloodline . ” Chu Mu got to there and slowly spoke it out loud and said the name Li Xu again .

Chu Mu lifted his head and glanced at the young girl reading, asking, “Who’s Li Xu?”

Young girl rolled her eyes and said, “I only manage the territories, I don't know about them . Don't’ ask me stuff like that . ”

“ . . . . . . ” Chu Mu laughed bitterly . How did he meet a girl with such a poor attitude?

“Hei, what a coincidence brother Chu!” Chu Mu was getting annoyed when Xu Daofeng came in from another room .

Xu Daofeng was Divine Sect’s member . Once he got to the Territory Court, someone came to take him . Since Chu Mu wanted to find out about the leader of New Moon Ground, they split up .

“What’s up?” Chu Mu asked .

“Teacher wanted me to get used to some territory laws and told me to take on some protesters hands on . I just saw New Moon Ground among a large group of problems and chose it!” Xu Daofeng laughed .

Xu Daofeng spoke, the young girl watching glanced sneakily at Xu Daofeng and interrupted, “You’re from Divine Sect?”

“Yes, little sister, do you have a question for me?” Xu Daofeng said .

“Don’t call me that!” The young girl was very unhappy .

“Alright” Xu Daofeng laughed helplessly .

Chu Mu didn’t care about the young girl, and started asking Xu Daofeng about New Moon Ground .

“Oh, it’s this . Li Xu lost track of New Moon Ground a few years back and sent people to take it over . However, I heard the managers were killed . From the news, the current New Moon Ground is controlled by some three palaces . The leader is a man called King Chu that took the land for himself . Li Clan is very angry, and wants to send an army over . ” Xu Daofeng said .

“You talking about New Moon Ground? Haha, the place isn’t bad . I heard many people want to head there . I heard that you may even be able to take some land and call yourself king . ” Another wilder man aside heard their conversation and started getting involved too .

“Cloud gate has people protecting it and won’t let people through though . ” Xu Daofeng said .

“Then you’re very behind on news . News came a while back saying a huge disaster hit Wildern Forest . The king died or some war happened . Anyways, the empire fell a rank, and isn’t a great threat towards the real experts anymore . Some powerful people can pass right through and don’t need to take the heavenly mountain path . ” The wild man laughed and said .

Hearing this, Chu Mu furrowed his brows .

The Wildern Forest that the man spoke of was really Eastern Wild Forest . The forbidden ground east of new moon ground was Eastern Wild Forest . Because of it, it stopped New Moon Ground people from going towards the east but also stopped cloud realm people from entering .

The only safe path was through Heavenly Mountain Range . However, the mountain range was ridiculously high, reaching the second level sky . Passing over it was nearly impossible so Cloud Gate became the only entrance there and back .

Now that the forest suffered a great calamity, it went from being unable to cross to being less of an obstacle . This meant that more and more people were going into new moon ground . This wasn't something Chu Mu wanted to see!

The appearance of a manager already caused a headache for Chu Mu . Now that many explorers were heading towards New Moon Ground too, maybe it wouldn’t be long before New Moon Ground was gentrified .

A feeling of things getting even worse struck Chu Mu . Helpless, Chu Mu pulled Xu Daofeng to the side and started talking about it to him .

“I didn’t want to hide it from you . I came from New Moon Ground to try to make it independent . ” Chu Mu said very solemnly to Xu Daofeng .

“Independence of territory!” Xu Daofeng paused .

As a member of Divine Sect, some things he remembered very clearly . Territorial Independence was possible, but the chances of success were very low . Xu Daofeng stared in shock at Chu Mu and asked after a while, “You… . . are you King Chu?”

Chu Mu nodded and confirmed .

Immediately, Chu Mu told him about the situation of Li Kuangdeng coming to take over . He also conveyed the idea of New Moon Ground staying sealed off and wanting to be self-governed .

“Cloud realm indeed isn’t a qualified manager . ” Xu Daofeng nodded .

Anyone could see that New Moon Ground was never visited in the past . Only when it got developed did Cloud Realm extend a hand over . Such a manager was really just a greedy leech .

“I just saw the territory independence . Now that New Moon Ground is managed by Li Xu, you’re a part of Divine Sect, you should know what I have to have in order to make the territory independent?” Chu Mu said straight forward .

“This… . . This is a great matter that affects millions of people . I can’t really do much as a small apprentice . I have to find my Teacher Lu… . . However, Brother Chu, you really aren’t joking and want to make your territory independent? If you fail, its a crime similar to trying to split up the empire . More importantly, Li Xu is the owner of Cloud Realm . You wanting to compete against them… . . ” Xu Daofeng said .

Xu Daofeng was just an apprentice . How would he think that he would pick up a case related to national territory . Not only that, he got this information from a man around the same age as he was!
