Chapter 1507: Wupan’s Bug Plague
The Charm of Soul Pets
âOn the other side of the distant Eternal Ocean at the Edge of the World is a place us humans have never set foot in. This is the territory of the other species - the Ocean species, the Demon species, the Beast species, the Ghost species, and the Flower species. These great species are not inferior to the power of us humans.â said Family Master Ning.
A shocked cry rang through the villaâs great hall while the stunned expressions indicated how surprising such information was.
Liu Binglan suddenly remembered something when she heard this. She opened her spatial ring with Chu Muâs letter that Pang Yue had brought and opened it.
In the letter, Chu Mu had said he needed to do a few things in the Ocean species.
Was the Ocean species he was speaking about the same as the Ocean species Family Master Ning said had a civilization like humans?
Initially, Liu Binglan thought that the Ocean species Chu Mu was speaking of was a particular soul pet species in the ocean region. Thinking about it now, Chu Mu was definitely in the Ocean species civilization.
However, how had Chu Mu come into contact with the Ocean species members?
After Family Master Ning finished telling them this, he didnât say anything more. He knew that it would be difficult for these new people to accept this.
However, this was the reality. When Family Master Ning had first learned of this information, his facial expression hadnât been much more calm than these people.
In fact, Family Master Ning had underplayed some of the facts because humans were actually lacking a bit compared to these five great species!
âThen may we ask Family Master Ning what kind of coexistence method do we use with these great species? Why have we not known about them in the past, nor have we seen any of the creatures from other civilizations?â asked a young gate master.
âThereâs a good explanation for this. The other civilizations are all soul pets, so even if you have seen creatures from other civilizations, in your eyes, they are but a soul pet. Just like how soul pets do not understand our civilization, we do not understand them. Itâs not that you havenât seen them before, but that you are unable to communicate with them.â said Family Master Ning.
âIf thatâs the case, how do your sirs and madams from the royal families know about the existence of these civilizations? Could it be that you have some method to communicate with these species?â another person asked.
Family Master Ning didnât respond to this question. Instead, he glanced at Hidden Pupil Royaltyâs old family master.
Hidden Pupil Royaltyâs old family master calmly replied: âThe five great species have their own envoys and most of these envoys are half pet half human. They have very high intelligence like us and have a natural ability to imitate language and thoughts. If the five species want to communicate something to us humans, they will have their emissaries negotiate with us.â
âHalf human half pet? Could he be referring to half human types?â
When this question was posed, many people looked at Bai Yu.
There were many that knew of Bai Yuâs half human identity. After finding out about the shocking truth from Family Master Ning, these people began to suspect whether Half Devil Bai Yu was an envoys from other species civilizations.
âHalf humans are not envoys. There is a slight human lineage mixed into the bloodline of foreign envoys. However, they are mainly of a foreign species.â Family Master Rong spoke out at this moment.
Only after Family Master Rongâs explanation did everyone move their strange gazes from Bai Yu.
However, there were a few people whose interests were piqued. King Ning looked with interest at Bai Yu and asked: âMister Bai, if you can transform into a devil, doesnât that mean you should be able to freely communicate with the Nightmare species. Thus, arenât you able to move freely in the Sequence Lands at the Edge of the World?â
Many people knew that aside from the five great species were some other soul pet species with extremely powerful strength. This included the Nightmare species in the Sequence Lands. They were also existences extremely feared by humans.
âNo. They do not welcome me.â calmly said Bai Yu.
âThankfully, us humans are accepting of you,â sarcastically said Elemental Sect Wind Factionâs faction lord.
âThere are some people that shouldnât rashly consider me as a human,â calmly replied Bai Yu.
Wind Factionâs faction lord went pale. He never expected that Bai Yu dared talkback!
There were so many leaders sitting here so Wind Factionâs faction lord couldnât say too much. He could only swallow his anger and say in a voice only he could hear: âJust wait and see!â
âWe have a few agreements with these great species and under normal circumstances, no large-scale war will break out.â continued Family Master Ning.
Humans often had disasters, but most of these disasters were caused by soul pet dynasties. These soul pet dynasties were probably much weaker than the entire Human species or the other five great species.
Thus, if a war were to break out between the five great species and the HUman species, it couldnât be described as a disaster. Instead, it would probably be a calamity!
âToday, weâll first discuss the matter about Quiet Forestâs Stronghold construction. There are a few subsidiary species of the Beast species civilization which are not abiding by the restrictions. They have begun to frequently wander into Wupan Continentâs northwestern borders territories. Who are the border lords of this area?â asked Family Master Ning.
After speaking, four Border Lords stood up and bowed at Family Master Ning.
Only these large affairs that threatened humanityâs existence would appear in the Dual Earth Conference. Quiet Forestâs current situation was growing increasingly messy. If the Beast species civilization really existed, then Quiet Forest Stronghold essentially bordered right on their territory. Thus, the serious disasters they were suffering from now were coming from the Beast species.
âThis matter is occurring in Wupan territory, but since it concerns the safety of all of humanity, Iâm sure every member present has a duty to help.â Family Master Ning swept his eyes over the 200 people present.
These 200 people represented humanityâs most powerful figures. It was no exaggeration to say that the lives of billions of humans were in their hands. Thus, they absolutely had the ability to influence the rise and fall of a huge species matter like this.
âWe will recruit a few experts from each of your factions to go to Quiet Forest. If someone is individually named, I hope they wonât refuse... is everyone in agreement?â said Family Master Ning.
Family Master Ningâs gaze looked at everyone present again.
It wasnât easy to refuse a royal family master, especially when the matter concerned the entire Human species. If they werenât to agree, it would be equivalent to betraying the entire species.
Thus, no one said anything. It didnât matter which faction it was, they could only abide by the royal familysâ arrangements.
âI oppose this.â suddenly, a cold and low voice rang out.
The moment this voice rang out, the conference abruptly descended into silence as everyone turned to see who dared refuse.
Xiao Xueang ignored these peopleâs gazes and calmly looked at Family Master Ning as he said: âWhoever were the ones that committed this offense should be the ones to bear the consequences. Thereâs no need for others to take responsibility for their greed.â
After speaking, Xiao Xueang intentionally looked at a few people in the leader seats.
âI also donât like cleaning up after someone elseâs mess,â said King Ning from the Ning Family Dynasty in a very frank manner.
Although he was also surnamed Ning, King Ning of the Ning Family Dynasty wasnât abiding by the royal family Family Master Ningâs wishes. This confused people. Werenât these two great figures supposed to be from the same place?
âHaving everyone else take responsibility for someone elseâs wrong... isnât this inappropriate, Family Master Ning?â Xuan Gate Immortal Sectâs old sect master also spoke up.
Probably only these leader rank figures dared speak opposing words.
Family Master Ningâs expression didnât change while his eyes looked questioningly at the other family masters.
The other family masters faintly nodded their heads, indicating that since a few leaders opposed this, they couldnât deal with this matter in that way.
âLetâs leave this for now,â said Family Master Ning.
âThe casualties from Wupan Continentâs eastern extreme bug plague have been sent to everyone already. This boog plague appeared ten years ago and has swept through practically every city with humans living it in the eastern extreme. The number of people who have become infected or ill is countless and it is continuously growing. The border kingdom lords in the area and Xuan Gate Immortal Sect have been unable to find an effective countermeasure. If nobody else has a better method, we can only send an army to clear up everyone infected by the bug plague and stop it from spreading.â
The Wupan Bug Plague was a horrifying bug epidemic from Wupan Continentâs eastern side. This stubborn plague had existed for too long. It also had hidden and infectious effects. If it was not well controlled and spread to even larger cities, it was unknown how many people would lose their lives.
There had been disaster level epidemics in history that had caused humanityâs total population to plummet a few tenths and the Wupan Bug Plague was trending in that direction!
âSending an army to exterminate them? Isnât this too inhumane? The negative repercussions caused by this will be too big.â said Divine Sectâs female gate master.
âThen does Divine Sect have a better way of dealing with this?â asked Family Master Ning.
The female gate master didnât know how to respond for a moment.
However, she suddenly seemed to think of something and her eyes looked at the special faction seats.
She stood up and gave a light bow before saying: âGuang Moon Palaceâs Saintess Yu has particular understanding in flower type blessing techniques. Perhaps she has a method of dealing with this plague?ân/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
âOh?â Family Master Yu faintly raised his brows, and stared at the Saintess Yu the female gate master had spoken of.
Saintess Yu was wearing a veil and was sitting there like a fairy. She had a tranquil and divine aura that resembled a beautiful and tender celestial mountain snow lotus.
The female Gate Masterâs recommendation made everyone look at Saintess Yu. When they saw her, many people silently sighed. They never expected such an outstanding and stunning woman would appear in this conference. Even with the veil, she still gave everyone a free and melodious feeling.
âGuang Moon Palace Saintess Yu, do you have a method of neutralizing the plague?â after Family Master Ning examined Saintess Yu, he asked her a question.
Saintess Yu calmly laughed, seeming elegant and reserved.
âI donât understand much about Wupan Continentâs matters, but I can give the bug plague a go.â Saintess Yuâs voice melodiously and beautiful rang out.
âYoung lady, how confident are you?â the Ning Family Dynastyâs King Ning turned around and asked with a rarely seen serious expression.
âUntil now, I havenât encountered an epidemic I cannot cure.â faintly smiled Saintess Yu.
âReally?â King Ning showed a pleased expression.
âKing Ning, Saintess Yu has cured no less than 20 immortal rank plagues in our Zhengming Continent. The number of people she has saved can be counted in the hundreds of millions. Every holiday, the people who come to Guang Moon Palace to thank her are always lined up from Guang Moon Palace all the way outside the inner city... you can be reassured about the saintessâs abilities.â Xuan Gate Immortal Sectâs old sect master stroked his beard as he spoke.
âOk, thatâs very good. Once the conference is over, I will trouble Saintess Yu to take a trip to my Wupan Continent.â said King Ning.
King Ningâs personal invitation was a supreme honor!
Nobody expected that Guang Moon Palaceâs Saintess Yu would suddenly receive such generous treatment!
