The Charm of Soul Pets

Chapter 1295: Young Lady in the Imperial Palace



Wupan territory had a famous river basin called Wupan Blood Vessel.

This river basin nearly flowed the entire Wupan territory into Eternal Ocean.

According to legend, human civilization in Wupan territory began around this enormous river region. Before the various large border kingdoms in Wupan territory had gotten to their present enormity, all cities were built around Wupan Blood Vessel.

Even now, 70% of Wupan territory’s main and capital cities were nearby this river.

At the very center of this river region resided Wupan Continent’s largest capital city, which had experienced countless calamities and disasters yet remained standing tall.

The history of this city ostensibly dated back to ancient human civilization. It resembled an old man that had lived in countless worlds and silently watched human development in Wupan territory from a simple city to a prosperous one, then from a prosperous one to a deteriorated one, then from a deteriorated one to an empire and finally a dynasty. Who knew how many of these cycles of ups and downs there were.

Wupan City had gone through countless lords and they were all called experts of legends since they had taken the human species to become the apex dynasty. Their names were engraved the thick Wupan Steele and they received the utmost reverence from the later generations.

Currently, Wupan Capital City was in the hands of the Ning Family.

Wupan territory’s Ning Family Dynasty and Zhengming Territory’s Mu Family Dynasty stood opposed to each other from afar. They were the mightiest dynasties on two large territories.

Ning Maner who Third White had picked up on the road happened to come from the Ning Family Dynasty.

Even she didn’t know of the enormity of the Ning Family Dynasty. Besides her early years when she spent a period of time in Wupan Capital City, she spent the vast majority of time afterwards under the care of an ancient ancestral tree.

In Wupan Imperial Palace.

Wupan Imperial Palace was spotlessly white - a pure and sparkling white. From afar, it looked like an enormous palace sculpted purely out of white jade.

On the glossy white stone path, a man wearing an azure black cloak slowly strode forwards.

There were many patrolling guards riding on white armored horned beasts walking back and forth on the path. When these guards saw the man in the azure black cloak, they all gave a respectful salute.

“Border Lord He!” In front of the enormous white jade palace, an old slave greeted the cloaked man while kneeling on the ground, refusing to even lift the head.

Border Lord He didn’t step into the enormous white jade palace. He just swept his eyes over the old slave and asked: “Where's the little fairy?”

“In White Jade Forest.” immediately responded the old slave.

“There again.” muttered Border Lord He. He changed directions and began walking to White Jade Forest.

White Jade Forest was the garden of the palace. Normally, nobody would take a stroll there. However, in these past few years, there could always be found a young woman in this garden forest.

There were numerous soul pets that resided in the garden forest, but most of them were ornamental soul pets without any fighting force. They were just there for viewing pleasure and to play with.

Wupan Imperial Palace was indeed grand and beautiful. However, in the opinion of one young woman, it was a locked city where even the atmosphere carried dogmas and rules. Only this white garden forest had a bit of life in it.

Border Lord He Cang passed through the palace walls and followed the stone path as he walked. Eventually, he arrived in a white bamboo forest.

The white bamboo forest was picturesque and emitted a unique spiritual essence. The spirit birds flying through the forest seemed to receive some immortal energy.

In the depths of the bamboo forest was an empty patch of land where a white pavilion was built.

There were currently numerous fine small creatures gathered around the pavilion. There were Xuan Deer that changed between seven different colors, Spirit Tigers with soft fur, Jade Mice with twinkling eyes, Demon Snakes covered in sparkling scales…

Even though they were just ornamental creatures, it was rare for them to act friendly with each other. Thus, the current scene was very strange. All of these creatures were standing together in harmony. There were even some creatures taking a nap right next to their natural predator. There was no enemies or killing here.

These tens of ornamental soul pets were gathered around a young woman in the white pavilion. This young woman was wearing a long mermaid dress that appropriately outlined her beautiful curves.

The light blue dress dragged on the ground as she walked back and forth in the pavilion. She was teasing a giddy small tiger. The small tiger was as large as an adult man’s palm and it was currently chasing after the young woman’s light blue dress. Its mini body had no speed to speak of and it would always grasp air.

The young woman watched the small tiger’s adorable actions and couldn’t stop her melodious laughter.

Her laughter was powerfully infectious and seemed to contain some special magic that could make a few of the plants cheerfully sway back and forth.

“Ok, ok. I won’t tease you.” The young woman in the light blue dress bent down and pulled the small tiger into her embrace as she stroked it.

The small tiger seemed to really enjoy it. It squinted its eyes and snuggled its head, finding a comfortable position in the young woman’s embrace before falling into a deep sleep.

Nearby, Border Lord He Cang silently stood in the bamboo forest, watching this pure and unblemished young woman with warm eyes. His mouth curved into a slight smile.

Ever since returning to Wupan Capital City, He Cang had spent a lot of time like this just silently standing and watching her from afar.

For some reason, when he saw her blossom in a smile and when he heard her laughter that sounded like silver bells, he would always forget the worries in his heart.

“Big Brother He, you’ve come.” a while later, the young woman finally discovered the tall figure in azure black standing in the white bamboo forest.

He Cang walked out from the bamboo forest and passed through the small animals.

These small animals were seemingly frightened of He Cang and they all retreated. Perhaps the imperceptible killing aura on He Cang’s body made these innately sensitive small creatures feel unwell.

He Cang walked up to the white pavilion and said to the young woman: “Is there anything making you unhappy?”

He Cang knew that this young fairy would normally come at a fixed time to this bamboo forest. This time, however, she wasn’t here during her normal time. Obviously, there was something affecting her emotions.

The young woman shook her head and her eyelids drooped down as she stared at the carefree and worryless small tiger sleeping in her embrace.

“I know that it must be about them again. But the truth is that you no longer have to suffer in silence towards them.” said He Cang.

This girl was someone any person with a bit of purity in them didn’t wish to see sad or hurt. He Cang was one of these people.

He was able to act mercilessly towards enemies and not blink an eye while killing a thousand people. However, he found it difficult to endure when this girl had a trace of unhappiness in her heart.

The young woman shook her head: “Forget it. I’ll be fine once I get used to their appearances.”

“Their greed will not stop. They’ll keep having you raise their soul pets. It’s going to take a severe toll on your mind. I heard Old Lei say that you were just recently sick…” said He Cang.

The young woman didn’t say anything. She just softly caressed the small tiger in her embrace.

She never imagined the palace would be so different from the one in her dreams.

This was her home, but she didn’t feel any familial warmth. This included even her own grandfather. All she felt was a sliver of artificial and fake warmth.

But it had been many years now. What could she do? Even if she was only a slave that could continuously provide them with xuan items and immortal items, she had already suffered the harshest days. She had learned independence and learned how to protect herself in this indifferent and cold imperial palace.
