Chapter 407: Chapter 407 Yu Mu Turns Against
Everyone hurriedly chanted in unison, "We beg for Ice Soul’s forgiveness, please spare us this time!"
Ice Soul looked at everyone, then at Yu Mu, and finally gave Ye Chen a fierce glance. She took the fruit from Yu Mu’s hand and coldly said to everyone, "Get out, leave this place. If you appear in the Land of Extreme Ice and Snow again, don’t blame me for being merciless!"
With that, Ice Soul turned and left.
Everyone finally breathed a long sigh of relief. Ye Chen gave Yu Mu a grateful look and said, "Thank you, Master Yu Mu."
Yu Mu smiled and waved his hand, saying to everyone, "Leave here and return to where you came from. If you don’t want to leave, you can go to my Thousand Stars Forest, but you can only move around the outskirts and the Dark Forest, you cannot enter the inner area."
"Yes! Thank you, Master Yu Mu."
Yu Mu looked at everyone still frozen in ice blocks, waved a hand casually, and a green breeze blew past, releasing everyone from the ice.
The excitement on their faces was self-evident.
Genggeng also jumped out from the ice, waving a small fist and shouting, "Ah ah ah! I’m so mad! Where’s that old woman, if she dares, let’s have a good fight!"
Yu Mu looked at Genggeng, a hint of surprise flashed in her beautiful eyes, but it vanished quickly.
Yu Mu laughed, "Such a cute little fellow."
Genggeng heard the voice, looked over, and upon seeing Yu Mu, suddenly ran over, stretching out his arms and said, "Hug! Hug!"
As expected, no matter who it is, they can’t resist the charm emanating from Yu Mu.
Even Genggeng was attracted by Yu Mu’s charm.
Yu Mu picked up Genggeng, who lay on her shoulder, sniffing her fragrance deeply.
Some people felt envious of Genggeng at that moment.
Jia Mu ran over to Ye Chen’s side, smiling sweetly, "Big brother Ye Chen, come to the Thousand Stars Forest with me!"
Yu Mu also looked at Ye Chen and gently said, "Come along, I have something to ask you."
Ye Chen looked at Hong Ye and Profound Maiden.
Yu Mu saw Ye Chen’s hesitation and said, "You two come along as well."
"Thank you, Master Yu Mu."
"Thank you, Master Yu Mu!"
The two responded respectfully.
Yu Mu nodded and walked ahead, Jia Mu happily walked beside Ye Chen, with Profound Maiden and Hong Ye following along.
Only Zhang Zheng remained in place, looking unhappy!
In his heart, he cursed Ye Chen, "Scoundrel! You forget people once your pants are on! Leaving me here, you damned scoundrel! Ye Chen, I won’t let you go! Leaving with that monster and not taking this girl, you must be blind! Is this girl not pretty enough! Hmph!"
Zhang Zheng stood there, angrily stamping his foot.
Ye Chen and the others were already following Yu Mu flying towards the Land of Extreme Ice and Snow, with the Three-legged Golden Crow still trailing behind.
Ye Chen glanced at the Three-legged Golden Crow, and its information appeared.
[Three-legged Golden Crow]
Level: LV55
Tier: Lord
Attribute: Wind
Combat Power: 78000
Blood Volume: 1600000
Race: Golden Crow Race
It’s unexpectedly a Tier Two race, albeit a low Tier Two race.
The Three-legged Golden Crow followed from afar, expressionless and indifferent, giving off an aura of being untainted by the mortal world.
Two hours later, they exited the Land of Extreme Ice and Snow, passed the outskirts of the Thousand Stars Forest, flew over the Dark Forest, and finally reached the inner area of the Thousand Stars Forest.
Gazing around, the inner area of the Thousand Stars Forest stretched endlessly to the horizon, with the combined areas of the outskirts and the Dark Forest being less than a tenth of the inner area.
In a place filled with the scent of flowers and the sound of birds, Yu Mu slowly descended.
Below, it resembled a luxurious private estate, and although the area wasn’t large, it was certainly lavish.
At the center of the estate was a towering tree, a thousand meters tall, with a diameter of a hundred meters.
At the base, there was an entrance, inside which household furnishings were arranged.
Judging by the interior layout, it wasn’t much different from human homes.
It seems that whether monsters or humans, their ways of living are similar.
In the courtyard, there was a pavilion, with chairs and tables.
Yu Mu gestured to the pavilion and said, "Please, take a seat."
Hong Ye and Profound Maiden were flattered and nodded, sitting down to the side.
Having interacted with Orn before, Ye Chen seemed more at ease.
After sitting down, a few monkeys ran over, behaving like little dogs, awaiting Yu Mu’s affection.
Yu Mu petted their heads and instructed, "Go, fetch some tea for our guests."
The monkeys nodded, chattering as they went.
Ye Chen noticed that the Three-legged Golden Crow still stood on a distant tree.
Genggeng was frolicking in the courtyard.
Jia Mu sat beside Yu Mu, hugging her arm and resting her cheek on Yu Mu’s shoulder. She smiled sweetly and asked, "Mom, why did you suddenly go there, how did you know where I was?"
Yu Mu lovingly patted Jia Mu’s head and laughed, "Your Golden Crow Uncle told me."
Yu Mu pointed at the Three-legged Golden Crow standing on a branch, facing forward with its back to Ye Chen and the others.
"Actually, I’ve always had your Golden Crow Uncle protect you from the shadows. With his strength, taking on anyone below level 60 is no problem. I also gave him a Communication Token, so if anything happens that he can’t handle, he’ll break it and I’ll sense it."
Yu Mu said with a smile.
Jia Mu gave a long "Oh."
Ye Chen was somewhat shocked; this Golden Crow had been following them for so long, yet he hadn’t noticed at all. If this Golden Crow wanted to kill him, it could have done so effortlessly!
Jia Mu pouted and said, "Hmph, you knew I was here all along and didn’t come find me, I don’t like you anymore!"
Jia Mu let go of Yu Mu and turned her head away.
"Alright, Mom is just considering what’s best for you. If you’re always under my protection, how can you ever grow, right?" Yu Mu gently coaxed Jia Mu.
Jia Mu finally smiled again.
Seeing such a loving mother-daughter pair, Hong Ye and the others felt a tinge of envy.
"Ye Chen," Yu Mu suddenly said.
Ye Chen responded with a "Hmm."
"Come with me," Yu Mu said as she stood up in a calm manner.
Ye Chen got up and followed her.
Jia Mu wanted to follow but was stopped by Yu Mu.
Ye Chen followed Yu Mu into the tree cave.
As soon as he entered the tree cave, Ye Chen noticed a fresh fragrance.
Once inside, Ye Chen realized that the tree was actually hollow.
Looking upward, there was a spiral staircase, with a landing every six meters or so.
Apparently, Yu Mu had fashioned this place into a residence.
Yu Mu led Ye Chen to the third floor, which served as a reception room. Yu Mu sat down on a chair, and Ye Chen sat beside her.
"Ye Chen, right?"
Yu Mu’s tone suddenly turned cold, and her previously gentle smiling face became expressionless.
Ye Chen pretended not to notice, nodding his head.
After all, the moods of the strong are often fickle; Ye Chen paid it no mind at all.
