Little Yellow Spring's Amnesty
← Ch.1650 | Ch.1652 → |
Although Exile Ocean was filled with stench, the sunset still added a beautiful scenery over the horizon.
The dusk sunlight showered along the calm ocean all the way to the Obstinate Rock Island and onto Chu Mu.
Chu Mu opened his eyes at that moment. Seeing the beautiful sunset, a smile floated on his face.
It would be a bliss to witness such a beautiful scenery after passing out for a short while.
Furthermore, it seemed that he was also hugging an obedient girl. No boundary was cross, they only hugged each other quietly and peacefully.
Ning Maner was still sleeping. She had been following Chu Mu and rushed to various places. She was similarly tired and slept soundly.
Chu Mu also noticed Ning Maner's shadow wavering slightly under the setting sun. It was clear that Dark Emperor had been protecting Ning Maner as she slept.
Chu Mu lightly pulled out his arm and let Ning Maner lean on a rock. He got up to check on little Yellow Spring.
Little Yellow Spring had woken up long ago. It laid there and looked at Chu Mu curiously with its clear pair of eyes which regained their normal luster.
Chu Mu examined the wounds on little Yellow Spring's body. He noticed that the opened wounds were mostly healed and only some scars were left. It would not take long before it fully recovered.
"It's really difficult staying here, right?" asked Chu Mu as he sat before little Yellow Spring and stroked its unicorn.
Little Yellow Spring seemed to be able to understand Chu Mu's words. It nodded and cried 'Ni Ni'.
"Yes, I will help you, " Chu Mu knew little Yellow Spring was pleading him to help it.
Little Yellow Spring shook the long chain on its body, hoping for Chu Mu to destroy this chain which restricted its movement.
Chu Mu shook his head and told little Yellow Spring, "I cannot help you break the chain. If you don't obediently stay in Exile Ocean before you're amnestied, the royal ocean guards will execute an even harsher punishment. What I have done to help you will also be wasted."
"Ni~!" Little Yellow Spring hung its head and seemed to be listless.
"Don't be hasty. You must obediently stay inside Sea Obstinate Rock for now. I will help you obtain your Ocean Species amnesty. By then, not only can you be freed, you can regain the strength that belongs to you, " said Chu Mu.
Little Yellow Spring nodded. After experiencing a life and death situation, it had matured quite a bit. It no longer acted without thinking about consequences like in the past.
Certainly, little Yellow Spring had to rein in its temper. This Exile Ocean encounter was a great experience to mature its mentality.
"We need to go, " Chu Mu rubbed little Yellow Spring's head.
Little Yellow Spring sat up and watched Chu Mu like a pitiful child.
"I will help you remove your seals the next time I come, take care of yourself, " said Chu Mu.
"Ni~!" Little Yellow Spring remained watching Chu Mu. Its big eyes already expressed its loneliness and insecure feeling.
Chu Mu knew there was no point staying here for too long. It would be better to appease the rage of the Ocean Species towards little Yellow Spring as soon as possible.
Chu Mu carried the still sleeping Ning Maner and flew towards the Coral City.
......
After returning to Coral City, the first thing Chu Mu did was to look for mermaid princess Lan Qie.
Lan Qie was handling a very urgent case, so Chu Mu waited outside for a while.
Chu Mu approached Lan Qie and asked, ""What happened?"
"Border Ocean reported that they saw Seven Headed Hydra King escaped back to Underwater City after suffering heavy damage. This is an excellent news to us. I have already told Ocean Iguana General to deploy Ocean Species warriors to recover those ocean regions we lost, " said Lan Qie.
"Big brother, you earned a big achievement, " said Ning Maner with a smile.
Lan Qie looked at Ning Maner and Chu Mu with a little perplexion.
Ning Maner giggled, "Seven Headed Hydra King was wounded by big brother."
"You were the one who wounded Seven Headed Hydra King? Severed three of its heads??" Lan Qie looked at Chu Mu with surprise.
Chu Mu nodded and briefly relayed the situation he encountered in Underwater City.
Mermaid princess and her Ocean Iguana Guards opened their eyes wide after hearing the story!
The human before them actually infiltrated into Calamity Ocean Demon's base, Underwater City, and stole Life Providence Grass. Not only did he safely escape, he also heavily damaged one of the major ocean powerhouses, Seven Headed Hydra King!
The Ocean Species knew this human was strong, but they never expected him to be that strong!
"Wait, you just said you saw Ocean Infant Formation in the Underwater City' ocean trench?" said mermaid princess hurriedly.
"Yes, there are over a hundred soul pet eggs from various high rank bloodline Ocean Species.
"Did you destroy it?" asked mermaid princess immediately.
Not only did Ocean Infant Formation possess a natural strengthening effect, it also possessed a type of soul binding force. Once those soul pet eggs hatched, the infants would completely listen to Calamity Ocean Demon's orders. This would be a huge threat to Ocean Species.
"No, " Chu Mu shook his head.
Lan Qie's gaze dimmed a little. When she thought about the offsprings from those Ocean Species Generals would become the slaves of Calamity Ocean Demon, her heart sank.
"However, I brought those soul pet eggs out, " said Chu Mu.
Saying so, he opened his Spatial Ring and took out those soul pet eggs.
The eggs varied in sizes and floated around Chu Mu. Each soul pet egg contained a dense life force.
"This......" Lan Qie was astonished by this scene.
These soul pet eggs were all from the various Ocean Species Generals. They were stolen by Calamity Ocean Demon during the war. They all had high rank bloodlines, and due to both of their parents being very strong, the talents they possessed would definitely surpass their fellow race members. More importantly, they were also strengthened naturally by Ocean Infant Formation......
The infants hatched from these eggs would be the future Ocean Species experts and generals!
Chu Mu actually brought all of them back without leaving one behind!
Mermaid princess's expression gradually changed from astonishment to excitement and relief. A teardrop squeezed out from her eye.
When this teardrop trickled down her cheek, it immediately solidified into a pearl.
"Great...... Wonderful. Us high rank Ocean Species have a really poor fertility rate. It usually took us a hundred years to produce one offspring. Many of our Ocean Species generals only have one such offspring......" Lan Qie exclaimed, "You were able to bring these unborn babies back. It's as if they have been reborn."
Chu Mu naturally could tell that these soul pet eggs mostly represented the next generation of core Ocean Species generals. When Calamity Ocean Demon stole them away, it almost swept up the rage of the entire East Ocean.
"Rururu~!" The Ocean Iguana General at the side spoke a string of Ocean Species language, seemingly to be praising Chu Mu.
Lan Qie summoned many mermaids and told them to bring these soul pet eggs to a safe place carefully. Then, those eggs would be returned to the various races in East Ocean respectively.
After settling this matter, Lan Qie continued to say words of appreciation to Chu Mu.
"You have contributed another two important achievements to our Ocean Species. Perhaps these are just some high rank bloodline soul pet eggs in your eyes, but this is the same as rebirth to the parents of these unborn infants...... I have already informed my father of these achievements. He told me he wants to meet you, " said Lan Qie.
......
This was the second time Chu Mu had an audience with East Ocean Siren King. It was still on the cliff altar at the island.
East Ocean Siren King examined Chu Mu similarly like before, then suddenly laughed heartily.
"Looks like your objective can be achieved earlier than expected, " said East Ocean Siren King.
"Earlier?" Chu Mu did not quite understand East Ocean Siren King's words.
"Us high ranking Ocean Species treat our offsprings with a fervent importance. You brought back 133 soul pet eggs. This 133 represents 133 East Ocean and surrounding ocean races. The parents of these unborn infants hold high positions in those races. You saved their children, wouldn't you gain their favor and respect?" said East Ocean Siren King.
Chu Mu was surprised after hearing that. Would that mean he could convince those Ocean Species to release little Yellow Spring?
It seemed that returning these soul pet eggs to Ocean Species was the best decision!
"Furthermore, you defeated Seven Headed Hydra King, it's similar to helping us regain a few big ocean regions. Us Ocean Species value gratitude. I believe your effort will be rewarded greatly, " said East Ocean Siren King with a smile.
"Then, the matter about little Yellow Spring?" asked Chu Mu.
"I will ask these 133 races to plead for Calamity to Yellow Spring Emperor, I believe it will have a significant effect, " East Ocean Siren King nodded.
"Great! Little Yellow Spring can regain freedom, big brother will also gain a new soul pet!" cheered Ning Maner even before Chu Mu.
This was certainly a great piece of news to Chu Mu. Recalling little Yellow Springs reluctant and helpless gaze, Chu Mu really wanted to go to Exile Ocean and fetch little Yellow Spring back right now.
"How about this? You can wait for a while. After we recover the ocean regions occupied by Seven Headed Hydra King, it will stabilize our East Ocean's war situation to a certain extent. You will also gain the respect of us Ocean Species. You may inform these situations to Yellow Spring Emperor by then, Yellow Spring Emperor will consider your opinion, " said East Ocean Siren King.
"How long will it take?" asked Chu Mu.
"Four months, " said East Ocean Siren King with confidence.
"Alright. I will train in Demonic Mound for a while. Hopefully, I can hear good news from East King when I return, " Chu Mu nodded.
"Hehe, you won't be disappointed."
