(This chapter is a modification of the original decision in Chapter 68, and then merged with the chapters that should have been Chapter 69 in the evening. Now it is combined into one chapter. It is probably more than the original two chapters. The first half of the people who followed it should read it.
However, some modifications have actually been made, mainly to make Chu Mu’s choice less abrupt and inexplicable...)
"Don't you think you can be stronger than me?" Xia Guanghan looked at Chu Mu, with an evil smile on his face and continued, "Ten years ago, I lived there for three years..."
Xia Guanghan's words were still so understated, but Chu Mu's heart stirred up an uproar...
Three thousand live for one person, what a cruel competition this is, not to mention that in addition to the competition between people, you also have to face countless ferocious soul pets.
Seeing Chu Mu's surprised expression, Xia Guanghan still raised his eyebrows, then pointed at the mysterious girl standing on the railing overlooking the sea, and said: "She signed a soul contract with the White Nightmare when she was thirteen years old.
About, she has been feeding the White Nightmare until now, and her White Nightmare has reached the fourth stage."
"You are a four-minded soul warrior, but now you only have two soul pets. Although I don't know what's wrong with your body, I think even if your body is normal, you will be easily defeated by her."
Shocking!!!
After hearing these words, Chu Mu was extremely shocked, and his eyes immediately stared at the mysterious girl!!
This girl gave Chu Mu the feeling that she was beautiful and cold, with elegance and nobility all over her body. She did not deliberately put herself above others, but she always gave people the feeling that Chu Mu could only watch from a distance.
I have to admit that this girl does have her unique charm.
However, Chu Mu would never have thought that such a seemingly delicate and noble girl, who should be praised as a princess, would actually sign a soul contract with the White Nightmare, and even feed the White Nightmare to the fourth stage with her own strength!
!
The White Nightmare is an incomparably terrifying devil, and Chu Mu knows very well the pain he has to endure when signing a soul contract with him. Even if his soul power is always sufficient, when the White Nightmare improves its strength, he will also suffer the pain of his soul.
The pain of attack.
Chu Mu has only fed the White Nightmare to the second stage, but he is already suffering physically and mentally. The feeling of being chased and forced by the God of Death all the time is simply worse than death...
But a girl who looked to be about the same age as him was able to withstand all kinds of suffering and feed the White Nightmare to the fourth stage. Chu Mu couldn't believe it!
"It can be said that if you live in your family, even if you are given twenty years, after twenty years, all your soul pets combined will not be as good as one of her secondary pets."
Xia Guanghan said disparagingly.
Chu Mu stopped talking. Having four levels of White Nightmare at this age was almost beyond the scope of Chu Mu's cognition. Especially since the other party was a delicate-looking woman, this kind of blow was definitely very big.
"Your family is in decline. Now it has withdrawn from the ranks of the four major families in Gangluo City. It is even possible that it will be deprived of the power to nominate a place for the world. You should be very clear about what losing this power means..." Xia Guanghan said
.
Chu Mu's heart immediately sank when he heard the news. The Chu family has indeed been in decline over the years, and it should be expected that it would be squeezed out of the ranks of the four major families, but Chu Mu did not expect it to happen so soon.
The family has been prosperous for hundreds of years, only to decline in a few days. This feeling must be very uncomfortable. Chu Mu can imagine the vicissitudes and dejection of his father and ancestors after learning this news.
Xia Guanghan once asked what was the reason that made Chu Mu reluctant to give up his poor life. The reason was the declining family and his father who was running around for that family's affairs and could not see him a few times a year...
Chu Mu understands the family's situation. According to Chu Mu's estimation, the family should be able to persist for another two or three years.
But now, in just half a year, the family has completely withdrawn from the ranks of the four major families. The only reason for such a change is that he disappeared.
Chu Mu was not sure what his family and father had done because of his disappearance, but thinking that they had paid a huge price for his own affairs, which caused the entire huge family to decline for two or three years, Chu Mu felt a sadness in his heart...
…
Seeing that Chu Mu's heart was moved, Xia Guanghan just curled his lips, then looked at the girl who always liked to be alone, and slowly said: "Little princess, let me give you a way to survive..."
Xia Guanghan paused and continued, "I cannot disobey the little princess's order. I can let you live, or you can return to your family now..."
Chu Mu was stunned, and after a moment, he suddenly turned his attention to the girl who was always covered with a veil!
The girl is still standing there quietly, with a hint of melancholy that no outsider can understand. Her charming figure and unique temperament, invisibly form a beautiful and moving picture with the deep sea and blue sky...
Chu Mu was very surprised. In his opinion, this Nightmare Palace girl should be as cold and heartless as other Nightmare Palace members. Even when he looked at her a few times, Chu Mu could feel the arrogance in her eyes. But that was it.
A woman who Chu Mu thought was indifferent and arrogant actually helped him without any reason...
"She... why did she want to help me..." Chu Mu looked at this unique girl, and the image of the girl in his heart once again changed dramatically.
"Maybe I feel sorry for you..." Xia Guanghan smiled coldly and continued,
"Actually, it doesn't matter if I let you live. Your family can no longer give you strong support. If someone wants to kill you, they can still hire people like me to get rid of you. Your so-called family's future hope is
In the eyes of others, you are like an ant that can be easily crushed to death."
Faced with Xia Guanghan's sarcastic words, Chu Mu had no refutation. In fact, Xia Guanghan was right. The family had declined. As soon as he returned, there would definitely be a new wave of attacks. Chu Mu could only hide among his elders all day long.
grew up under the protection of
It can be said that Chu Mu's return will definitely add more burdens to the family...
"Now, you have two ways to choose. The first way: choose to return to the family. If you choose to return to the family, I will take back the White Nightmare, and you can continue to live a comfortable life from now on. However, I
I think your achievements can be said to end here. In this life, you will never be able to surpass me, let alone a person of the level of the little princess."
Xia Guanghan's words were very heavy, so heavy that it made it difficult for Chu Mu to breathe. Family affairs were like a big mountain pressing on Chu Mu. Chu Mu had lived strong until now, but he clearly understood
, it is simply impossible to revive the family in its current state, it is simply impossible to go out of one family and one city and become a truly top soul pet master.
"Although the White Nightmare is a devil, he constantly stimulates your greatest potential, making you never stop pursuing your strength."
"The second path is the path I chose for you: I don't need to tell you, you should understand what this path is. And as long as you can come out alive, I can give you this White Nightmare with extraordinary qualifications and absorb it.
As a member of the Nightmare Palace, you will get the status and power of the Nightmare Palace. As long as you can continue to climb up, what you get in the Nightmare Palace will never be what your family can give..." Xia Guanghan said.
"These are two completely different roads. The first one may allow you to survive while your poor family slowly declines. The second road, as long as you go on and crawl out alive, you will be qualified to become a human being.
Master!"
Xia Guanghan's words were like sword blades, piercing deeply into Chu Mu's heart!!
Chu Mu looked at the arrogant Xia Guanghan, and his emotions fluctuated violently again!
In a short period of time, Chu Mu's mood had fluctuated several times.
No need for Xia Guanghan to explain, Chu Mu also understood the path he had arranged for himself.
There are only three thousand people alive, and the people on the prison island are racing against death!
If Xia Guanghan had chosen the path for himself one day ago, Chu Mu would have chosen the first path without hesitation. Half a year of life had made Chu Mu feel extremely exhausted physically and mentally. Only his own home could allow him to make up for this trauma.
…
However, at this moment, Chu Mu did not have the courage to choose this path whose outcome could already be guessed...
Xia Guanghan's power, the girl's astonishing strength, the family's decline and humiliation, the other families' arrogance and arrogance...
As Xia Guanghan said, I am too weak now. What can I do if I return to the family? I can only watch the family continue to age...
And Chu Mu can also be sure that once the family declines, other families will never give the younger generation of the Chu family the opportunity to gradually grow in strength. They will continue to suppress and restrict, and finally form a vicious circle...
"Wow~~~~~~~"
The sea water surged around the ship, one wave after another, and Chu Mu's heart was like the sea water, never calming down for a moment...
This is a choice, a life-changing choice!
…
Xia Guanghan curled his lips and stared at Chu Mu, waiting for Chu Mu's choice without showing any signs of impatience.
At this moment, Chu Mu thought a lot...
"Crash la la la~~~~~~~~"
A wave of restless waves suddenly beat up, and the water splashed on Chu Mu's body. His body was instantly cooled. This feeling made him take back all his thoughts and return to reality.
Chu Mu's chest kept rising and falling. He looked at Xia Guanghan and asked, "Is the person who hired you to kill me Yang Luobin?"
"I'm not sure if it's him, but he is indeed from the Yang family. The Yang family didn't give me what I asked for, and sooner or later they will have to deal with them. Of course, without the employment relationship with the Yang family, you are nothing to me.
You are a pure stranger, and I am telling you this just because I admire your potential and think you can become a strong person..." Xia Guanghan said.
Chu Mu nodded. At this moment, he had already made a decision.
Chu Mu looked at the superior Xia Guanghan and said in a firm tone: "I choose the second path!"
After hearing Chu Mu's answer, Xia Guanghan smiled, a very evil smile that made people feel a bit cold.
"Are you sure you want to choose the second path? Prison Island, even a narrow escape from death seems a bit shabby..."
"OK." Chu Mu nodded. At this time, Chu Mu did not hesitate at all, and there was determination in his eyes!
"Very good, it seems there is no need for me to let you go in front of the little princess and then kill you secretly." Xia Guanghan suddenly laughed.
Chu Mu seemed to have expected that Xia Guanghan would not let him off easily, and was not much surprised by Xia Guanghan's words.
"Is this what you plan to send?" Xia Guanghan said. When he said this, he didn't know when a letter appeared in his hand.
Chu Mu's expression changed slightly. The letter in Xia Guanghan's hand was written by Chu Mu when he was in Hengcheng. Although he didn't expect his family members to come here to rescue him, Chu Mu still wanted to tell them the news that he was alive.
, so that they don’t have to worry about themselves.
However, Chu Mu did not expect that Xia Guanghan was so powerful that the letter he asked people to entrust everywhere would actually fall into his hands.
"There is no need to send this letter. They already think you are dead. After three years, if you can come out alive, go to your family and tell them that you are still alive. If not, there is no need to give them hope and make them suffer.
Wait three years." Xia Guanghan threw the letter into the sea.
Looking at the letter fluttering in the strong wind, Chu Mu also clenched his fists slightly, and his heart became more determined:
Three years! In three years, I will definitely walk out of the prison island alive, stand at a height enough to support my family, and trample those families under my feet!
"Tomorrow I will send my soul pet to take you to the prison island. Three years later, no matter whether you are dead or alive, my soul pet will fly over the island..." Xia Guanghan said.
Chu Mu nodded and asked, "What if I am the only one left on the island within two years?"
"Then you will live alone with those ferocious soul pets on the prison island for a year. The soul pets on the prison island are quite rich in resources. If you use them well, they can still change your life."
"Oh, by the way, let me tell you that Cao Yi has also been thrown to that island by me. Whether you can kill him depends on your own luck."
After Xia Guanghan finished speaking, he turned his back, left the deck facing the sea breeze, and returned to his room.
After Xia Guanghan left, Chu Mu's inner emotions were still tumbling for a long time.
The path has been chosen, and Chu Mu has no regrets. It's just about fighting and killing. If Xia Guanghan can do it, he can do it too!
…
The sea breeze became a bit softer at night, gently playing with the long hair of the girl on the railing, her clothes were fluttering, and she was beautiful...
The girl has been standing there for a long time, saying nothing, not paying attention to other people's eyes, just staring quietly.
"Woooooo~~~~~~~~"
A delicate murmur sounded, and little Moye, who had a delicate appearance, jumped onto the railing, holding a small piece of paper in his mouth, looking at this unique girl with a pair of beautiful eyes.
The girl came back to her senses and looked at the sudden appearance of little Moye. A hint of surprise flashed in her beautiful eyes, but after a moment her eyes became extremely soft. She couldn't help but stretched out her hand to stroke Moye's clean silver-white hair...
…
The girl soon discovered the small piece of paper Mo Xie was holding, took it, and opened it with some confusion.
"Thanks."
There were only two simple words on the paper. The girl quickly understood it and turned around to look for Chu Mu, but she did not see Chu Mu. She remembered that in the past, Chu Mu would always sit outside the deck and practice in front of the waves.
Spell…
Chu Mu was not found, and the girl stopped looking. Instead, she stretched out her hand to pick up the delicate Mo Xie, and asked in a clear voice: "Little one, can you watch the sea with me here?"
"Woooooo~~~~~"
Moye didn't resist, lying quietly in the girl's arms, his eyes staring at the ocean...
Elsewhere, Chu Mu stood at the back of the boat channel, watching the girl holding Mo Xie from a distance. For some reason, a strange feeling lingered in his heart at this moment. He wanted to talk to the girl and reveal the secret.
Open her mysterious and hazy veil to understand her melancholy inner world...
…
White seagulls chase the waves, and gray clouds chase the sea breeze. The blue sky, blue sea, and calm and beautiful curved surfaces set off each other, interpreting the most charming blue world...
"Oh, is it true? He chose it himself?" the veiled girl asked, her eyes fixed on the black-winged tiger that gradually disappeared between the sea and the sky.
"Well, he chose it himself." Xia Guanghan nodded and glanced at Chu Mu, who was sent away by his soul pet.
The girl was silent, and the figure of the young man sitting on the edge of the boat holding the Moonlight Fox appeared in her mind. During the more than half a month of sea journey, she could always see this young man accompanying the Moonlight Fox. The young man was cold and indifferent, but in
When talking to Moonlight Fox, his eyes always change. This kind of scene should be said to be rare...
"Do you think he will be able to come out of there alive in three years?" the girl asked.
"Maybe not, but this is his own choice..." Xia Guanghan said.
The girl glanced at Chu Mu once more and said nothing more. Perhaps, three years later, she will no longer remember this incident...
…
In the sky, sitting on the mighty Winged Tiger's broad back, Chu Mu turned back to look at the ship, his expression becoming a bit complicated...
The girl wouldn't care about such an ordinary thing, but Chu Mu would always remember that there was such a melancholy and lonely mysterious girl in the extremely evil Nightmare Palace...
She is a transcendent goal in Chu Mu's heart, and a unique lily swaying in the wind in Chu Mu's dark and unclear inner world.
However, it would take at least three years before Chu Mu felt that he could stand on the same level as her...
