Chapter 537: Chapter 409: Soul Pet Trainer, Chu Mu

“Zhee~~~~~~~~~~~~”

“Zhee~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~”

Suddenly, as Chu Mu retracted his Soul Sense, which was thoroughly erasing the memory of the Wind-binding Spirit, it unexpectedly let out a string of heartbreaking cries!

This cry was extremely mournful, resonating throughout the entire battlefield, making people feel as if their hearts were trembling along with this sad wail.

One could sense a strong emotion intermingled in this voice, an emotion that no one could understand, yet it sent s.h.i.+vers down their souls!

Chu Mu was stunned by the cry of the Wind-binding Spirit. Even the four people in the seats revealed surprised expressions, staring at the Wind-binding Spirit with faces full of puzzlement and surprise.

“Strange, its memory should have already been erased by you, why are there still such intense emotional fluctuations? If this is the case, the success rate of the next step may become relatively low.” The voice of Fox Elder came out.

Chu Mu was dumbstruck, staring at the lamenting Soul Pet, and for a moment, he didn’t know what to do next.

“Perhaps every Soul Pet will experience a negative reaction after their memory is erased, I think every Soul Pet doesn’t want to erase their own memory. Since the memory has already been erased, just continue to try the next step, if it can’t succeed, there’s nothing we can do.” Fox Elder said.

These words from Fox Elder suddenly stirred something in Chu Mu’s heart.

“Its memory has been erased?” Chu Mu asked Fox Elder.

“Yes, it’s already been erased. The reason it’s making such a cry is probably a subconscious reaction from its original memory.” Fox Elder said.

“Subconscious?” Chu Mu muttered to himself.

“Just give it a try. Having a low success rate is better than not succeeding at all.” Fox Elder said to Chu Mu.

If the Wind-binding Spirit didn’t let out a startling cry, Chu Mu certainly wouldn’t have had the slightest hesitation.

But now, Chu Mu was indecisive.

Chu Mu knew that in many cases, there wasn’t much need for such indecisiveness in order to become stronger. Just like when he initially formed a soul contract with Mo Ye, even though there was some reluctance, in the end, even after the soul contract was removed, Mo Ye didn’t leave him…

However, the mournful cry of the Wind-binding Spirit was like a bell tolling in a soul, causing a tremor in Chu Mu’s soul, and making him recall a motto that he had always adhered to:

“Soul Pets all have lives, they all have souls, they are not human servants. Regardless of their strength, their dignity and choices are very worthy of respect!”

These were the words Chu Mu initially said to Qin Meng’er when he got Mo Ye. Influenced by his father, he became a powerful Soul Pet Master and at the same time, a Soul Pet Master with a soul!

Even Chu Mu remembered that Chu Tianmang once said that becoming a powerful Soul Pet Master is not very difficult. The most difficult thing is to become a Soul Pet Master with a soul, because a Soul Pet Master without a soul is impossible to form a soul contract with a powerful Soul Pet that truly has a soul!

In recent times, in order to surpa.s.s his limits, Chu Mu had been immersed in how to improve his strength, inadvertently forgetting his initial purpose of becoming a Soul Pet Master.

In fact, after being stimulated by countless strong individuals and numerous temptations, every Soul Pet Master can easily lose their own nature and easily go astray when they are oppressed by numerous mountains.

Take for instance the Soul Covenant’s Memory Liquid, which can quickly upgrade one’s strength. If it’s said that the Soul Pet doesn’t have any too strong reactions after its memory is erased, then Chu Mu wouldn’t reject such a thing because sometimes certain methods are needed.

But, this Wind-binding Spirit, even after its memory has been erased, still emits such a strong wail. This requires how long in the past it needs to bury that mission and belief deep into its soul not to forget it under such circ.u.mstances…

This is a Wind-binding Spirit with its own true soul!

Such a Soul Pet, even if it has the stronger Ninth Level Memory Liquid, or even the Tenth Level Memory Liquid, they wouldn’t be able to completely wash away its soul memory and they wouldn’t be able to sign a soul contract with any human because in the deepest part of this Wind-binding Spirit’s erased memory, there definitely exists a deeply ingrained concept!

Chu Mu seeks a true spiritual communication between human and Soul Pet. This Wind-binding Spirit, no matter how powerful it is, it’s not what Chu Mu really wants if it harbors deep grudges.

“Young Master? Why haven’t you continued? Every Soul Pet may show some strange symptoms when their memory is being erased. There’s no need to mind it.” Fox Elder said.

Chu Mu stood silently, his gaze looking down at the extremely weak Wind-binding Spirit lying on the ground.

The eyes of the Wind-binding Spirit were somewhat empty, which was the effect of the Memory Liquid cleansing the soul. But at the moment when his heart was moved, Chu Mu faintly felt that in the empty pupils of this Wind-binding Spirit, there was a bit of pleading…

It was pleading to Chu Mu!

At this moment, Chu Mu felt a spark of communication between his soul and this soul pet. This soul pet, a creature that would rather die than submit to a human, was revealing an expression of longing, as if begging Chu Mu to restore its memories!

Every soul pet had its dignity. Chu Mu had a hard time imagining that this Wind-binding Spirit was completely putting down its pride in front of him. In a state where it was barely retaining any memories, it looked at Chu Mu with pleading eyes, hoping for the return of its memories!!

This look, this plea, this spirit, once again shook Chu Mu’s heart!

What was it that this Wind-binding Spirit couldn’t let go of? What heartbreaking story was hidden behind the fragments of memories Chu Mu had seen?

“Chu Mu, what’s wrong? Why did you suddenly stop?” Ye Wansheng thought Chu Mu had made a mistake during the Memory Liquid usage procedure.

Ye Wansheng, Chu Xing, and Chu Ning couldn’t feel the Wind-binding Spirit’s emotions. They were even more unable to perceive the plea within the vacant stare of its eyes.

Meanwhile, Ye Qingzi was observing Chu Mu with her smart eyes piercing through to his true thoughts…

As far as Ye Qingzi could see, Chu Mu’s heart was like a ball of fiery heat encased in ice. He would not easily be moved by anything or anyone, and he distanced himself from others. But the moment someone touched the depths of his heart, they could deeply feel the sincerity and pa.s.sion of his inner flame.

“I think this must be a special Wind-binding Spirit,” Ye Qingzi formed her theory.

“Why can’t we feel anything?” Ye Wansheng stared at the weakened Wind-binding Spirit, his tone showing puzzlement.

“I once read in the teacher’s book about people who can resonate their souls with a soul pet’s. They always seem to handle soul pet so easily, that’s because these are the people who truly understand the pet’s heart and soul…” Ye Qingzi slowly began to explain.

“So, Chu Mu is that kind of person, huh? Never would have guessed. He’s wooden, cold, and scheming. The one who can resonate with a soul pet’s soul should be those kind, pure, beautiful girls, right?” Ye Wansheng joked.

Ye Qingzi rolled her eyes, then tried to explain, “I think Chu Mu is this type of Soul Pet Master. When we pa.s.sed the Heavenly Boundary Monument at the easternmost edge of the West Region together, Chu Mu saw the illusion from the Heavenly Boundary Monument. He obtained the most mysterious Spirit Liquid in the world, the Monument Tears, by simply being there when others would resort to every conceivable way to get. Already then, I suspected Chu Mu had the special ability to communicate with soul pet’s souls, so the ancient spirit inside the Heavenly Boundary Monument chose Chu Mu, allowed him to enter the world within the monument, and gifted him the Monument Tears…”

“He, of all people, gets the Monument Tears? It’s so unjust. If I knew he had this kind of treasure, why would I waste the Memory Liquid on him?” Ye Wansheng showed a bitter smile.

Chu Xing and Chu Ning did not know about things like Soul Pet Trainers and Monument Tears, thus, they were left baffled.

“It’s probably not that we don’t possess such an ability, but Chu Mu has rooted a certain ideology in his heart which lets the soul pets acknowledge him. Soul Pets have their sense of spirit, they have perceived this ideology from Chu Mu which truly respects them. Thus, the soul pets will naturally communicate with him.” Ye Qingzi shared based on her a.n.a.lysis.

…

Chu Mu was oblivious to what Ye Qingzi was saying, but he kept going on his own path.

Chu Mu saw no need to proceed with the next step. On one hand, if he forcibly signed the soul contract with the Wind-binding Spirit, there was a good chance it would self-destruct. On the other hand, if he obtained a soul pet by such dishonorable means violating both its dignity and soul, it would go against his original purpose for becoming a Soul Pet Master.

Even if he obtained this powerful Wind-binding Spirit and increased his strength significantly in the near term, issues like lack of mutual understanding, disagreement with the soul pet, numbness, and emptiness would become significant problems down the line, putting both Chu Mu and the Wind-binding Spirit at a great disadvantage.

And so, Chu Mu gave up.

He could do without the final glory of the second-tier of The World Decree. But he could never enter into a soul contract with a soul pet that wasn’t emotionally connected and couldn’t truly resonate with him!

…

“How can I give its memories back to it?” Chu Mu asked Fox Elder.

“Give them back? You don’t want to continue, Young Master? You’ve wasted half a bottle of Memory Liquid. Even though the success rate is not high, you should at least give it a try.” Fox Elder asked with surprise.

Chu Mu shook his head. Once he’d made up his mind, nothing could change it.

“Young master…” Fox Elder tried to persuade Chu Mu again.

“Just tell me how to give its memories back.” Chu Mu cut off Fox Elder’s words.

Fox Elder opened his mouth as if to say something, but in the end, could only sadly shake his head and comment, “Young Master, you’re so much like someone I once knew.”

“My father? I’m not walking his path. He admitted that he couldn’t truly keep his heart intact. He couldn’t do it, but I believe I can.” said Chu Mu.

“No… the person I’m speaking of has been dead for quite some time… never mind. If you want to return its memories, Young Master, then infuse your current Soul Sense into the other half of the Memory Liquid. I’ve told you that capturing a soul pet involves first was.h.i.+ng away the soul pet’s memories, then imprinting on it the Soul Pet Master’s memories. Now, as long as you maintain your Soul Sense, the fragments of the Wind-binding Spirit’s memories in your Soul Sense will not disappear. If you blend the Soul Sense carrying these memory fragments into the other half of the Memory Liquid, and then use it on the Wind-binding Spirit, it’s equivalent to imprinting these memories back into its soul.”
