Chapter 1343

“Today, people from Zhengming Continent’s Territory Institution came. They wanted us to participate in the Territory Conference that happens once every 10 years. When the time comes, the city lords of the various large border cities, the owners of independent territories, the leaders of large factions as well as some extremely famous people will participate. Our New Moon Land has just become independent, and in the past has never participated in this conference. I’m not sure what is going to be discussed there.” said Liu Binglan.

“Then let’s go.” Chu Mu was still thinking about Chu Tianmang, and didn’t really pay attention o what Liu Binglan was saying.

“Aren’t you about to go to Zhengming Main City?” asked Liu Binglan.

“You want me to participate in this conference?” asked Chu Mu.

Liu Binglan shook her head and said: “I know that you don’t like this stuff. Of course I’ll go personally. What’s the matter? You seem unhappy that your mother is making a rare trip with you? Are you afraid that I’ll get in your way?”

Chu Mu finally realized what was going on and hastily put on a smile: “How could that be? I’m extremely honored.”

“That’s better.” said Liu Binglan with a humph.

“Perhaps dad will appear with you going.” Chu Mu felt that there was a high chance of this happening.

Chu Mu remembered Chu Tianmang as someone who cared a lot about feelings. At least before he had become an adult, Chu Mu didn’t ever see him with another woman. And each time Liu Binglan appeared, his emotions would be complicatedly helpless.

“He’s an arrogant man. Perhaps he’s already given you many younger brothers and sisters in the outside already. Him refusing to see us is only normal.” coldly harrumphed Liu Binglan.

“...” Chu Mu didn’t know what to say.

Obviously, the grudge Liu Binglan had towards Chu Tianmang was very deep.

From the start, the husband and wife relationship between Liu Binglan and Chu Tianmang was acrimonious. The two each had their own thoughts, and were very stubborn people.

Adding on the fact Chu Tianmang hadn’t shown himself for many years, this made the grudge that Liu Binglan had towards him become even greater. Even if he was too lazy to see her, why was he refusing to see his son? He had to know that Chu Mu had spent many years looking for him.

“He could have some troubles.” Chu Mu felt that he had to speak up for his dad so as to leave some room for reconciliation between them.

Liu Binglan didn’t want to talk about him any further and changed the topic.

Chu Mu was even more helpless. He now understood why Liu Binglan’s face was always covered in coldness whenever he saw her when he was young: the coldness was for Chu Tianmang to see. However, the coldness had accidentally reached him, leaving an indescribable fear towards his mother.

Chu Mu silently thought to himself that he had to be extremely careful when he mentioned his dad to Liu Binglan in the future.

After talking with Liu Binglan and setting a time of departure, Chu Mu returned to his room.

After returning to his room, Chu Mu was still thinking about Chu Tianmang. He didn’t understand why his dad was unwilling to show himself. Was there something restricting him? Could it be because of his Darkness Sect identity?

But it didn’t matter if it was Divine Sect or Darkness Sect. This had nothing to do with Chu Mu, and he wouldn’t care if his dad had joined Darkness Sect.

After thinking about it, Chu Mu still didn’t understand, so he just stopped thinking about it.

Turning his mind to Night, which had already entered the immortal rank and adding on his own powerful dual evil powers, he probably wouldn’t encounter much trouble going to Zhengming Main City this time.

After changing his clothes, Chu Mu didn’t even turn on the lights as he walked towards his bed and pulled over the blanket.

However, as he pulled, a soft cry suddenly rang out from next to him. He turned his head and saw a young woman with a graceful figure wearing translucent sleeping wear sleeping on his bed. Her sleek skin and alluring fragrance stunned Chu Mu for several seconds...

“Big Brother, what are you doing...” Ning Maner’s face was red from embarrassment as she softly spoke out.

As he looked at Ning Maner’s delicate and alluring appearance, Chu Mu didn’t know what to say for a while.

Just now he had been thinking about things. Although from the soul link he could feel that Ning Maner was nearby, he thought that she was in the room next door.

“I forgot that this was the place you used to sleep.” Chu Mu’s face went red, and he awkwardly turned his head.

This room indeed used to be Ning Maner’s room. But after she left, Ye Qingzi liked this room more so they moved here. Thus, Chu Mu’s room became this one.

“Oh, this is Big Brother’s room. But Aunty Liu let me sleep here...” said Ning Maner. After finishing her words, Ning Maner immediately realized something, and her white and beautiful face was instantly dyed with red.

“Sleep here. I’ll just go next door.” Chu Mu stood up. He felt that if he kept looking, something was going to happen.

This woman was no longer the girl of the past. Her entire body was emitting youthful charm. Not only did she have an attractive and graceful figure, but she also had a fairy-like face of pure beauty. If he didn’t keep his distance, Chu Mu, who had suppressed his desires for a few years, was now afraid that he would have evil thoughts.

“Big Brother, not long ago a very, very beautiful spectral sister flew in. She saw that I was changing and then flew out...” Ning Maner told Chu Mu about this just as he was leaving.

“...” Chu Mu was even more speechless. This misunderstanding just became even greater.

“I can feel that she’s still at Lake Pavilion,” said Ning Maner.

“Ok, thanks.” Chu Mu closed the door. He wasn’t very sleepy, and went straight to Lake Pavilion.

Chu Mu hadn’t spoken to Princess Jinrou since coming back.

There was a lake in Soul Palace. At the center of the lake was a pavilion reached by crossing a wooden bridge. The pavilion was behind Liu Binglan’s Female Supreme Palace, and was normally her personal pavilion.

The lake water was very clean, and it reflected the azure stars in the sky. From a distance, it looked like a star had fallen into the world. Only when the occasional drifting leaf landed on the lake, causing a faint ripple, would people realize that this was merely a reflection.

Next to the lake, a faint specter wearing a long white dress silently stood there.

She carefully shifted her body towards the lake, and stared at the tranquil water.

The lake water was an ink-black color, with the stars in the sky dotted in. The only thing that wasn’t reflected was herself.

A trace of bitterness and frustration appeared on her face.

Bai Jinrou didn’t know how long it had been since she had last seen what she looked like. After becoming a specter, she could pass through mirror worlds as she wished, but the mirror worlds were ultimately illusory. Her image didn’t exist in reality. Put differently, she didn’t exist in the real world.

Chu Mu was currently standing nearby. He knew that she liked water and liked staring at the tranquility of water. But when he saw the bitterness and frustration flash on her face, Chu Mu had a painful feeling in his heart.

This made Chu Mu think of what Hai Qie had told him on the boat.

“Jinrou.” Chu Mu walked up to the spectral princess, and called out to her.

“Am I the same as those malicious spirits demanding vengeance for their grievances that are portrayed in books? Is my hair really long? Do I look like a monster? Are my eye sockets without eyeballs? Am I empty like a corpse...?”

After becoming a specter, Princess Jinrou would rarely appear in front of strangers. She was afraid that everyone didn’t want to hurt her, and thus told her that even in her spectral state, she was very beautiful. She couldn’t actually see what she looked like, and didn’t know if what everyone said was true.

“Don’t think like that. You’re just as beautiful as before. You’re the most...” Chu Mu hesitated before ultimately saying, “You’re the most beautiful woman I’ve ever seen.”

Princess Jinrou was stunned, and her water-like limpid eyes stared at Chu Mu.

Immediately, she lowered her head and said: “There are some things that I don’t dare use my mind-reading abilities for. I’m afraid that once I know, it will make me feel even worse.”

“Just read my mind. There are some things that I myself don’t even know the answer to or know how to say it,” said Chu Mu.

Princess Jinrou shook her head. Even if she knew the answer, what did it matter? She was pretty much a dead person already.

“I’ll help you find the Limbo Flower,” Chu Mu said seriously.

Princess Jinrou didn’t respond. She just sat with Chu Mu next to the lake, staring at the water.

“Where are you going next?” asked Princess Jinrou.

“Zhengming Main City. How about you come with me?” said Chu Mu.

“My father wants to take me to Zhengming Aerial Forest. The maps indicate that there is a Heaven Boundary Monument there,” said Princess Jinrou.

When she mentioned the Heaven Boundary Monument, Chu Mu remembered the words Ning Maner had told him.

Princess Jinrou could understand the words on the Heaven Boundary Monument. If he wanted to uncover the Heaven Boundary Monument’s mystery, he needed her help. Thus, Chu Mu told her about what he knew of the Heaven Boundary Monuments.

“Monument Tear Individuals, Fake Monument Tear Individuals?” Princess Jinrou descended into thought.

During the time Chu Mu had left, Princess Jinrou had explored New Moon Land’s two Heaven Boundary Monuments even further. She discovered a deeper layer of information that happened to match up with the Monument Tear Individuals Chu Mu just told her about.

“Can you read memories?” asked Chu Mu.

“Yes, but the person I read cannot resist this. Otherwise, it will deal a severe injury to my soul,” said Princess Jinrou.

“I intentionally stayed at Lin City’s Heaven Boundary Monument for a long time so that I would be able to remember the words written on the Heaven Boundary Monument. You can use my memories to determine what was written on Lin City’s Heaven Boundary Monument.”

“Ok”

Princess Jinrou nodded her head. She extended a finger, and lightly placed it on his forehead.

Reading other peoples’ memories was a long process, and also expended a lot of mental energy. While she read his memories, she had Chu Mu write down the words she was saying.

Chu Mu could control spatial energy, so he wrote down the words Princess Jinrou down in the air, forming a series of special symbols.

However, Chu Mu couldn’t understand these special symbols.
