Chapter 1640: 1500: I'll Bear the Consequences of Its MistakesChapter 1640: Chapter 1500: I’ll Bear the Consequences of Its Mistakes
Little Huangquan’s banishment location was unknown to Chu Mu, and it was not realistic to follow the Royal Sea Patrol; they would definitely see Chu Mu as an enemy.
Chu Mu didn’t want to lose a Water-type soul pet that he had taken to heart, but now he could only watch helplessly as Little Huangquan was taken away, swimming towards a place he knew nothing about.
The World is so vast, and the Ocean areas are countless; where should he go to find it?
Little Huangquan’s figure became more and more distant until Chu Mu could no longer see it.
“Brother, Little Huangquan looks so pitiable, it definitely didn’t do those things on purpose, it just didn’t know there would be such consequences. The Sea Race shouldn’t treat it like this…” Ning Man’er said anxiously.
Little Huangquan was very young and its mind was not yet mature.
Every young creature has its pranks, it’s just that because of its excessive strength, these pranks turned into a disaster for the Sea Race…
Ning Man’er believed that Little Huangquan didn’t know the difference between right and wrong at the moment, and as long as it was properly guided, it would never do those things.
“We need to find Lan Que,” said Chu Mu, dragging Ning Man’er hurriedly towards Coral Sea City.
…
Arriving at an Ocean cavern, the tired Fishman Princess slowly emerged. Seeing Chu Mu rush towards her, she greeted him with a courteous smile.
“Sister Lan Que, Little Huangquan has been taken away,” Ning Man’er immediately said.
The Fishman Princess seemed unaware of this matter, glancing at the young fish girl by Chu Mu’s side with a puzzled look.
The young fish girl briefly recounted the recent visit of the Royal Sea Patrol.
The Fishman Princess slightly knitted her brows in thought for a while before speaking, “It must have been those clans who suffered disasters seeking a crusade from Emperor Huangquan. Alas, my father confined it to the East Sea, initially intending to lighten its punishment. I didn’t expect the situation to develop to this worst-case scenario.”
“Is there a way to reverse the judgment?” Chu Mu asked.
The Fishman Princess shook her head, “Now that the Royal Sea Patrol has been involved, there’s no room for negotiation. Moreover, the place of banishment was chosen by those affected clan chiefs. If it’s a calm area of the sea, Little Huangquan might live there peacefully for decades or centuries. But if it’s a ferocious sea area, savage Sea Race territories, life and death will be up to fate…”
An Emperor Level could live safely in some small sea areas. But in some barbaric seas that harbor the most ferocious of races, living by the law of the survival of the fittest, with Little Huangquan’s proud nature, accidents are almost inevitable, and the frail strength of an Emperor Level truly makes it hard to preserve its life.
Hearing the words of the Fishman Princess, Chu Mu’s mood also sank.
It was hard enough to find a Water-type soul pet that he fell in love with at first sight, and he barely got a good look at it before it was Sealed and banished!
“Should I secretly follow the Royal Sea Patrol and then try to bring it to another Ocean region?” Chu Mu suggested.
The Fishman Princess shook her head, “The Ten-layered Shackles are the most severe form of Restraint by our Sea Race. Unless you reach the Undying Level, trying to destroy it with outside force will only obliterate the soul of the one who is Sealed. Emperor Huangquan is truly enraged this time, determined to punish Little Huangquan sternly. Alas, I always thought Emperor Huangquan would continue to indulge it, it seems that the major clans have indeed suffered greatly.”
The Ten-layered Shackles could turn Immortal beings into mere Emperors; without unlocking such heavy shackles, Huangquan cannot truly be considered Huangquan anymore.
“Really, there’s no way?” Chu Mu asked. If he had met Little Huangquan earlier, maybe he could have guided it not to commit so many misdeeds.
But now Huangquan was already severely punished, and it was next to impossible for Chu Mu to find another juvenile and powerful Huangquan.
“Let me ask my father. Come with me,” Fishman Princess Lan Que said.
The Fishman Princess could tell that Chu Mu truly liked Little Huangquan. In fact, no one wanted to see the gifted Little Huangquan banished like this. The Fishman Princess really hoped that Chu Mu could correct its ideology, as it was indeed still a child.
Following the Fishman Princess, Chu Mu reached the bay of the island, and on a cliff extending into the Ocean, he saw a Sea Altar.
On both sides of the altar stood Turtle Clan warriors with thick armor, immobile, forbidding all creatures from approaching the sea-cliff altar.
Atop the altar was an ancient chair, on which Chu Mu saw a bearded old man.
His beard was so long that it almost touched his navel, and his seaweed-like hair was neatly combed.
He was half-reclining in the chair, supporting his head with his hand, as if in contemplation or deep in sleep.
His lower body was that of a fish, unlike the female fish people, his fish tail scales were edged like blades, sharp and straight without the curves of the female fish, adding a sense of fortitude and strength.
“Father,” said the Fishman Princess, leading Chu Mu to the foot of the altar.
The steps to the altar were many times taller than those of humans, and it was only when Chu Mu approached this male fish person that he realized the East Sea Merfolk King was several times larger than an ordinary human!
“What is it?” The East Sea Merfolk King half-opened his eyes and asked in a calm tone.
“The matter concerning ‘Disaster-Huangquan’, this person beside me is the human king from New Moon Land I mentioned to you. He is an excellent Soul Pet Master. He wants to make Disaster his Soul Pet. My intention is also to let Disaster follow this human. Maybe this can correct its nature. However, the Emperor seems to have made up his mind, already having the Royal Sea Patrol seal Disaster and banish it to the unknown ocean,” the Fishman Princess said.
Chu Mu did not understand the language between the Fishman Princess and the East Sea Merfolk King, so Ning Man’er quietly translated the gist of it to him.
The East Sea Merfolk King’s eyes slowly opened, he propped up his head and sized up Chu Mu.
Clearly, Ning Man’er’s uniqueness attracted his attention more than Chu Mu. His gaze finally rested on Ning Man’er, and he said in human language: “Are you the successor to the World Monarch Tree?”
“Yeah.” Ning Man’er nodded. She was curious as to how this fish person grandfather could tell at a glance that she had inherited the power of the World Monarch Tree.
“Are you her guardian?” The East Sea Merfolk King glanced at Chu Mu again, inquiring.
“Yeah.” Chu Mu nodded.
“I trust the choice of the World Monarch Tree, and I believe a Monument Weeper will be an excellent Soul Pet Master. If possible, I will hand Disaster over to you. But Emperor Huangquan’s orders are difficult to change. It is respected as a Genius of Henghai, yet it is a disaster to Henghai…” the East Sea Merfolk King said.
“It is too young, immature in mind. Heaven has bestowed upon it strength not befitting its age, this is not its fault,” Chu Mu said.
“Wrong is wrong, regardless of age. Having made a mistake, there can be no excuse, the only option is to make amends,” said the East Sea Merfolk King.
“Make amends?” Chu Mu did not quite understand what the East Sea Merfolk King meant.
“Yeah, if you truly wish for Disaster to become your Soul Pet, then you must quell and compensate for the chaos it caused. After calming the anger of the Sea Race, some of Emperor Huangquan’s fury may subside. At that time, you can propose to personally restrain ‘Disaster’. Considering your status as the sole caretaker of the World Monarch Tree, Emperor Huangquan should agree to your request. Becoming the Soul Pet of an outstanding human Soul Pet Master is far better than being cast out and neglected,” the East Sea Merfolk King said.
Chu Mu saw there was still a chance for redemption, and his eyes immediately lit up.
“Fine, I will help it calm the anger of those from the Sea Race, and I will try my best to compensate them,” Chu Mu agreed almost without hesitation.
“Human, the calamity it caused is far more serious than you imagine. Just because of a chance encounter, are you really willing to take on the consequences for ‘Disaster’? Many from the Sea Race are not as easy to communicate with as you humans,” said the East Sea Merfolk King very seriously.
The Fishman Princess was also watching Chu Mu at this time. She wondered why this human agreed so readily to such a matter. It must be known that the catastrophe caused by Disaster-Huangquan was measured by millions of lives and several races. How easy would it be to quell their anger, to compensate those displaced Sea Race? Even the Fishman Princess herself couldn’t be sure of properly handling it if she went personally.
The most important thing is that he is just a human. Aside from the fish people, who are reasonably sensible, other Sea Race have a natural aversion and hostility towards other species. To accomplish this task is far from as simple as imagined.
“The first time I saw it, I recognized it as my Soul Pet. Since it’s my Soul Pet that made the mistake, I am willing to take responsibility for it,” Chu Mu said.
In Chu Mu’s heart, a soul contract was not a one-sided enslavement but a mutual choice.
A Soul Pet Master cannot simply make a powerful creature sign a soul contract with them out of nowhere.
To successfully sign a soul contract, Chu Mu needs to earn Little Huangquan’s recognition and have the courage to bear all its consequences!
Chu Mu might not know the enormity of the amends and pacification the East Sea Merfolk King talked about, but to give up such a desirable Water-type soul pet, Chu Mu could not do it.
“You don’t need to make any promises for this matter. I’m just telling you a feasible method. If you want to do it, then go ahead, and if you feel you can’t complete it, you can give up at any time. You don’t owe it anything, nor do you owe the Sea Race anything,” the East Sea Merfolk King said.
With that, the East Sea Merfolk King waved his hand, indicating that the Fishman Princess could take Chu Mu and leave.
…
“Do you really plan to do this?” Fishman Princess Lan Qie looked at Chu Mu with flickering eyes.
Lan Qie found that she was beginning to find this human inscrutable. He was clearly unacquainted with Little Huangquan-Disaster, yet he was willing to inexplicably take on such a heavy responsibility.
“Yeah.” Chu Mu nodded.
“Good, I will support you and help you as much as I can,” the Fishman Princess said earnestly.
Over the days they had spent together, the Fishman Princess found herself growing increasingly appreciative of the human before her.
