Supreme Tamer - Chapter 589
Chapter 589: Chapter 460: New Companion, Princess Jinrou
When Chu Mu arrived at the Mysterious Realm, it was the fifth day. Since every participant starts at a different point and they all have to set off at the same time, Chu Mu had to stay put for two days under the watch of three race members.
Chu Mu had killed countless people in his time and was highly sensitive to blood, allowing him to accurately determine the time of their death. It turned out that the time of the race members’ deaths should have been shortly after he reached the tall grass.
“To kill the race members just so he could start two days later… what a terrifying person.” Chu Mu took a deep breath.
Chu Mu himself had a vengeful heart, but he never imagined that he would kill the three race members during those two days. The person who did such an act was not only malicious but also extremely cunning, and they would stop at nothing!
If the corpses were in Chu Mu’s direction, it meant that the terrifying murderer was very close to Chu Mu, and Chu Mu had to be extra careful on the road ahead.
As for whether the murderer had other purposes, Chu Mu had no way of knowing.
Chu Mu collected the badges from the three race members and thought that when these three people didn’t return, the World’s contest organizers would definitely know who was responsible for their deaths. If the murderer dared to kill them knowing that they were designated security personnel, they must not care about the consequences.
“Come to think of it, since this guy killed the race members, he wouldn’t know where the endpoint is. How is he going to continue the race?” Chu Mu thought of another question and spoke to himself.
“He’s a ruthless person. When he meets other participants on the road, he can find out from them.” A voice suddenly floated down from above!
Chu Mu was taken aback. This was a woman’s voice. Although it was clear and pleasant, its sudden appearance from above seemed a bit eerie.
Chu Mu immediately looked up and saw a woman appear on the pine tree where he had just been standing. This woman was dressed in black clothes that tightly wrapped around her graceful and slender body.
Her fair hands contrasted strikingly with the black clothes, and the crystal-clear, snowy white skin on her neck was even more distracting!
A black veil partially covered her face, revealing only a pair of beautiful and enchanting eyes. When calm, they occasionally emitted a faint gleam, naturally exuding an astonishing beauty.
This woman was far away from Chu Mu, and her voice was sent by Soul Sense. Chu Mu knew that she couldn’t attack him at this distance, and if she really wanted to ambush him, she definitely wouldn’t warn him with her voice.
However, Chu Mu’s face was filled with surprise because this woman was somewhat familiar to him, as she always seemed to be standing on high ground every time he saw her. Although she exuded an elegant and refined demeanor, she still gave off an unapproachable and lofty impression.
The Little Princess of the Nightmare Demon Palace, Princess Jinrou!
Chu Mu’s first impression of Princess Jinrou was perfect, and he had a very favorable impression of her kindness.
However, Chu Mu wasn’t the type to daydream. He knew that there were huge differences between him and this woman, and as time went on, he gradually understood that Princess Jinrou’s perfection was only shown when she put down all her status, positions, and struggles for power and interest.
So, even later when Chu Mu held the position of Soul Hall Young Master, which was no inferior to hers, he still kept his distance from her.
Later, Chu Mu gradually realized that his feelings for Ye Qingzi were significantly better. In other words, such a woman was the one Chu Mu wanted and was most suitable for him, so he dismissed all fantasies he had about Princess Jinrou.
However, Chu Mu never expected that, in the seventh realm, Princess Jinrou would appear in the same direction as he was participating.
Princess Jinrou was even younger than Chu Mu. Like Chu Mu, she was a strong cross-tier challenger. However, all this time, Princess Jinrou’s name hardly appeared on the World Rankings, and people in World City never discussed her strength. Her fame in the World Decree was much smaller than that of Chu Mu, who continuously won the highest honors.
However, among the hidden experts in the World Decree, Princess Jinrou was definitely one of them!
“Are you surprised by my appearance?” Princess Jinrou’s voice floated down, seemingly disliking the sight of the corpses. She only stood far away on the pine branch, communicating with Chu Mu through Soul Sense.
“Yeah, not too bad.” Chu Mu replied, not making any effort to get closer to the captivating Princess Jinrou, maintaining their distance.
“In the last realm, you eliminated my guard.” Princess Jinrou’s voice floated down.
“What do you want to do?” Chu Mu didn’t want to play dumb with Princess Jinrou and asked directly.
“How dare I do anything to you?” Princess Jinrou’s words were clearly meant to address the pressure Liu Binglan had placed on her.
Liu Binglan’s status was extremely high, and even the internal members of Nightmare Demon Palace were incredibly wary of her. As a young generation member, Princess Jinrou, although highly regarded, was now almost on the same level as Chu Mu. She indeed didn’t dare to provoke Chu Mu openly.
Chu Mu didn’t like being looked down upon when conversing, so he guided the Night Thunder Dream Beast along the steep rock wall and slowly leaped in front of Princess Jinrou.
He deliberately examined Princess Jinrou in her black clothes, and only after a moment did he speak out, “The murderer who killed the three Game Organizer members should be very powerful, and might have other intentions. Be careful.”
“You don’t intend to travel with me? After all, you are also my close guard.” Princess Jinrou asked.
“If only one person can reach the endpoint, then we are enemies. Do you think it is necessary?” Chu Mu said.
After hearing Chu Mu’s words, Princess Jinrou was stunned, and then she laughed lightly. Her laughter was clear and melodious, lingering gently between the valleys.
Chu Mu had to admit that this Princess Jinrou was tempting in every way, whether in her figure, appearance, or voice. It seemed that the Creator had given her all the refinement and perfection. When she laughed, even those with the most determined minds would be infatuated with her elegant and beautiful demeanor.
Chu Mu had once been hurt by a nearly perfect woman, so he had developed a shadow towards women with the perfect appearance and temperament. He became more concerned with their inner character, and what attracted Chu Mu to Princess Jinrou was her innocence from her younger days…
But now, Chu Mu could not feel this innocence in her. Instead, he faintly felt that it was false. Hence, he was very vigilant towards this breathtakingly beautiful woman.
“This Mysterious Realm is vast, and there are several endpoints. Although our starting points are close, we may not be going to the same place.” After laughing, Princess Jinrou explained, as if she realized that Chu Mu still had some doubts, she added, “There are almost no rules for this crossing, and the first thing each contestant should do upon entering here is definitely not to rush to the designated location, but to find teammates… ”
“Don’t you have your own team?” Chu Mu asked.
Princess Jinrou had been preparing for the World Decree years ago. Thinking of her crossing into the seventh realm this time, her supporters should already be waiting for her somewhere.
“There are five people in total. Lu Donghe was defeated by you in the sixth realm, one encountered a strong opponent from Soul Covenant in the fifth realm, and has been eliminated. The other two are in different realms, with only one in this Mysterious Realm. However, it’s difficult for her to find me.” Princess Jinrou simply told Chu Mu about her situation.
“So, you want to travel with me?” Chu Mu saw the meaning in Princess Jinrou’s words.
“Yes. The killer who can kill the Game Organizer members is probably from this generation, I may not be able to handle it alone. As the Prison Island King, your training ability is very strong, and following you will be safer. We can also watch each other’s back on the way.” Princess Jinrou said.
“Do you trust me? Or do you think I pose no threat to you? Or do you already have a plan?” Chu Mu asked.
“You think too much of me.” Princess Jinrou changed her tone, her spirited eyes gazing at Chu Mu.
Chu Mu couldn’t help but think of this woman as complicated, as the greatest threat to him came from her.
Moreover, after the Di Sheng Domain, Chu Mu realized a problem: the Defecting Girl might be in World City. Although he had a soul connection with her, her powerful mental power could completely block it, making it impossible for him to detect her presence even if they were face to face.
Chu Mu’s impression of the Defecting Girl’s perfect appearance was actually quite vague, and Princess Jinrou’s perfection in every way was most in line with the Defecting Girl. Therefore, Chu Mu still had reservations about Princess Jinrou.
If there were reservations, there would certainly be no goodwill. Chu Mu didn’t want to travel with her, as she was a dangerous figure to him.
“You’d better be careful yourself. We have different positions.” Chu Mu tactfully declined to travel together.
After saying that, Chu Mu gently patted the Night Thunder Dream Beast’s dream horn, signaling it to leave.
Princess Jinrou still stood quietly on the pine branch, appearing as tranquil as an immortal in the mountains. Her eyes followed Chu Mu’s departing figure, and it wasn’t until Chu Mu had moved some distance away that she spoke to him again with her Soul Sense, “Xia Guanghan is already setting a trap for you. No matter how well you hide, you are likely to fall into his snare.”
Chu Mu let the Night Thunder Dream Beast stop in the shadows between the valley as he turned back to look at Princess Jinrou, his gaze slightly changing.
