The Charm of Soul Pets

The dark cliff was located behind Heaven City’s Heaven Palace. That place was a barren land without any creatures or plants.

In fact, it was rare to ever see plants in Heaven Palace, so when Yu Suo discovered a holy blue and captivating red Evil Good Flower by the dark cliff when she was very young, she began to treat that place as her own secret small world.

When she was heartbroken and didn’t want to tell her big sister, Yu Qie, she would sit beside the cliff. She would breathe in the wind coming from the starry river and look at the distant and endless stars.

When she realized that plants needed nutrients to grow, every once in awhile, she would secretly go to Human Mother’s room to steal God Dew energy.

She never took the whole God Dew. Instead, she would extract a portion of the dew and drip it on the holy blue and captivating red flower’s petals, allowing this flower that had managed to bloom in Heaven Palace to continue growing.

Divine Dew was what Yu Qie used to recuperate and she clearly knew that the energy was lacking. She also knew who did it. However, compared to recklessly killing Heaven Demons and Heaven Devils, Yu Qie felt that Yu Suo taking the God Dew to raise a small life form was harmless. Thus, she kept one eye closed towards this.

......

Pavilion of Myriad Pavilion’s Moon Spring was also a place Yu Suo frequented.

There used to be a few girls who would also come here to play around and chat. However, for some reason, whether it be her bigger sister becoming the Totem Divine Maiden or Yu Suo committing a mistake that caused the city to fall into panic, these young girls would intentionally keep their distance.

Heaven Palace had changed, almost instantly becoming unfamiliar to her as well as all the people.

She sat by herself next to the spring, listening to others talk. She was able to see the world on the ground from the spring water.

Thus, she just stared intently at the calm spring water.

“This spring can see our world?” Bai Jinrou stood next to Yu Suo and earnestly looked at the spring.

“Yes, it’s a reflection spring. Soul palace also has a spring-like this that can see Immortal City.” Chu Mu nodded his head.

“I can imagine that she really wanted to go to our world at this moment.” Bai Jinrou softly said.

“In an environment where there are restrictions and controls everywhere, one’s independence will indeed be sacrificed.” said Chu Mu.

As the two of them talked, a person appeared beside the spring.

The person looked about twenty and refined in manner. However, his eyes hid many other things.

“Yu Suo.” the man smiled and walked in front of her.

Yu Suo glanced at the man as a sliver of disgust rose in her heart.

At some point in time, Yu Suo had stopped wearing the same clothes as her older sister. She began to sport her own style and so nobody would confuse her with her older sister anymore.

It was normal for Yu Suo to hate the person in front of her. She didn’t forget that time in the pavilion when this person had told her that she was dispensable.

Even more laughable was that this man thought that she hadn’t heard him. And now he enjoyed showing up in front of her and courting her favor.

“Some people are really interesting. This man called her dispensable when she was young, but when she grew up and grew beautiful, he began to shamelessly chase after her...” said Bai Jinrou.

Chu Mu didn’t say anything. If it was only because of calling her “indispensable”, Yu Suo probably wouldn’t hate Yu Tian so much.

Could Yu Tian have used some sinister scheme to do something shameless to her?

That couldn’t be it. After all, the person who did something shameless to her was him.

“A little while ago I was patrolling outside the city. Guess what I saw.” Yu Tian began to search for a topic.

Yu Suo didn’t have the slightest bit of interest.

Yu Tian kept speaking: “It was a plant time soul pet. I heard someone from the older generation say that it was a flower devil progenitor. You can’t imagine how terrifying the scene was. Everything under the dark cliff was densely packed with flower vines. These vines were as thick as demon pythons. It looked like an enormous python net.”

“Dark cliff?” Yu Suo was stunned.

Wasn’t that the place she nurtured that evil good flower?

The evil good flower was very young and Heaven Palace’s environment was very unsuited towards plant growth. If Yu Suo hadn’t used the God Dew these past years to nurture it, this tiny evil good flower would definitely have withered and died.

However, Yu Suo never expected that there was such a terrifying flower devil primogenitor underneath the dark cliff. That small evil good flower would definitely be devoured!

Yu Suo didn’t even think about it and immediately ran towards the dark cliff.

That flower was the only one in Heaven Palace. To Yu Suo, it was the same as her. It lived in a place it didn’t belong.

Moreover, after many years of nurturing it, Yu Suo saw it as her own soul pet. How could she let that monster underneath dark cliff eat it?!

“That evil good flower is the flower devil primogenitor... Yu Suo is overly anxious.” Bai Jinrou watched the extremely anxious Yu Suo.

“Yes. It’s possible that many years ago the evil good flower was only a small plant. But after this many years...”

Chu Mu still felt confused as to why Yu Suo hated Yu Tian so much.

If Yu Qie was the Totem Divine Maiden, then wasn’t what Yu Suo was doing right now the exact opposite as her older sister, Yu Qie? In fact, wasn’t opposing her?

Could it be that a huge fracture had occurred in their relationship that caused them to become enemies from the closest of family?

If this was the case, Chu Mu felt that was too tragic.

However, Chu Mu also felt this probably wasn’t the case. The anger and grievance in Yu Suo’s heart was very difficult to describe. It probably wasn’t a falling out that happened...

Yu Suo and her big sister, Yu Qie, indeed had incompatible characters. Her reliance on her older sister could still be seen, even now. Her big sister was like her mother, while Yu Qie’s calm and intelligent character had never changed. She was very tolerant of her younger sister, Yu Qie’s, various rebellions, and needless troubles. Yu Qie would only smile when she saw Yu Suo. Thus, their relationship probably wouldn’t be affected or broken up by anything external.

“Chu Mu, what are you thinking about?” Princess Jinrou looked at Chu Mu, who wasn’t talking.

“I’m thinking about Yu Tian’s eyes just now,” said Chu Mu.

......

Yu Suo had no soul pets and she could only run to dark cliff.

Eventually, she exited Heaven City and passed through the barren land behind Heaven Palace. She gradually grew further away from Heaven Palace.

The closer she got to dark cliff and when she thought about the incomparably large flower devil monster underneath the cliff, Yu Suo’s face grew a bit pale.

But how could she bear to watch that only flower be eaten?

“Ge zhi Ge zhi Gezhi~~~~~~~”

Suddenly, the ground in front of Yu Suo split apart, revealing an enormous crack!

From within the azure and black cracks in the ground, a monster without a scalp burrowed its way out!

Immediately after came its claws. Between its claws and arms were black wings that resembled the wings from bats!

Yu Suo had seen countless monsters like this before. They had even frequently appeared in her dreams. They were the Heaven Devils that threatened Heaven Palace’s existence!

Why would this place have Heaven Devils??

Dark cliff, situated behind Heaven Palace, was not a place suitable for any creature to live. This place was completely barren and no creature would appear here.

However, a Heaven Devil had appeared. It had appeared right in front of her!

Its body wasn’t large, but from its aura, Yu Suo could tell that this was the strongest Heaven Devil she had seen!

This was non longer a normal Heaven Devil demonic creatures. Instead, it was a genuine Heaven Devil King!

From its eyes, she could see this monster’s anger!

For the last countless number of years, their Heaven Devil species had been able to taste the delicacy of the human race. However, there was suddenly a day when some of the Heaven Devils that had gone out to eat had been mercilessly killed by this young girl. Not a single one returned alive!

“Hehe... what a delicious... what a delicious woman...” the Heaven Devil King opened its mouth. From its sticky saliva filled throat came the human language!

Yu Suo was stunned. She never imagined that the Heaven Devil monsters would be able to speak the human language!

The adjacent Chu Mu and Princess Jinrou were also stunned. Certain soul pets that had powerful mental strengths could mentally communicate with humans. However, communicating in the human language was practically impossible. Old Li and the Mermaid Princess were both species’ envoys and it was because they had a human bloodline that they could speak the human language.

Could this incomparably ugly Heaven Devil monster had the bloodline of humans?

“I... I like... like the scent... the scent on your body...” the Heaven Devil King stepped forwards towards Yu Suo!

Yu Suo’s face went pale from fear. She was enshrouded by this monster’s terrifying aura and she was unable to move. She could only watch this monster grow closer to her.

Suddenly, the purple crystal pendant on Yu Suo’s neck, as if it had sensed that her life was in danger, blossomed with a purple radiance!

Chu Mu looked at the purple crystal pendant and suddenly remembered that when he had fought her in Wanxiang City, he had shattered her crystal pendant.

And if he remembered correctly, Yu Qie also had an identical crystal pendant hanging from her neck.

The crystal pendant formed a purple barrier that protected Yu Suo.

However, the Heaven Devil’s strength was extremely terrifying. With one strike, the crystal protection was shattered. The enormous energy swept up seemingly shattered this area of the barren land!

Yu Suo was completely possessed with fear. She was unable to use any of the incantations to protect herself. And even if she could successfully chant them, in front of this powerful Heaven Devil King, it was equally useless!

As she watched Yu Suo exposed defenseless in front of this monster’s claws, Bai JInrou grew anxious as well.

At this moment, from above Heaven Palace flew a purple light that resembled a furious meteor. It hurtled towards this place at an unimaginable speed!
