Chapter 1025 Pearl?

This chapter is updated by NovelFree.ml

The next day, all the Prefecture Heads who had gathered in Thunder Jade City to welcome Chu Jun, as well as the previous management of the Prefecture Head's Mansion, hurriedly rushed to Xiang Yu City.

There were ten prefectures in Leiyu Island. Eight of them rushed to Xiang Yu City. One of the remaining two prefecture masters resigned, and the other simply took his family out to hide. Of course, the fact that Leiyu Island had returned to Chu Jun's rule could not be changed without the arrival of one or two Prefecture Heads.

That day, Chu Jun received eight Prefecture Heads and various high-ranking figures from the Prefecture Head's Mansion in Xiang Yu City. He publicly announced that Chu Mubai was the new Prefecture Head of Leiyu Island and Zhao Ling was the first Prefecture Supervisor. Everyone knew that Chu Mubai was only a puppet, but the real power was held by the State Supervisor. Thus, they all expressed their loyalty to the little Zhao Ling. On the other hand, Chu Mubai was left to the side.

Originally, Chu Mubai was only a marginal figure in the clan. Being able to sit on the seat of the continent lord was already considered to be extremely lucky. Therefore, he did not care about everyone's neglect and continued to greet people with a smile on his face.

Following Zhao Ling's instructions, the Puppet Continent Lord named Pan Chuanxiong and Jiang Bin Left and Right Commanders, commanding the Lei Yu Army. The Golden General Chu Long continued to be the commander of the entire army, nominally holding a higher position than Pan Chuanxiong and Jiang Bin, but in reality, he could only command the Central Army, and his military power had been weakened by two thirds.

It was undoubtedly an acceptable result for Chu Long to retain one-third of his military power, so he accepted the order happily.

Following that, Zhao Ling started to take over Leiyu Island's financial and tax management. This girl also knew that one mouthful of food was not enough for a fatty. She only changed a few important positions to her own people, and the rest remained unchanged. Everyone was happy for a moment.

Chu Jun felt relieved when he saw that this little girl was very familiar with handling matters and was able to handle them with ease.

Things over here are settled, The results of the fierce battle in Jade Transformation City were also transmitted back. Silver Warrier Chu Hong led 200,000 elites from Thunder Jade Army to intercept 50,000 Black Fiend Army soldiers between Jade Transformation City and Thunder Jade City. The two sides fought intensely for a day and night. Thunder Jade Army defeated the Black Fiend Army at the cost of 80,000 lives, killing 40,000 demons and chasing after them.

Under the setting sun, the walls of the Jade Transformation City were already in tatters. Blood stains could be seen everywhere. There were some corpses lying on the streets before they could be dragged away.

A huge troop carrier slowly sailed towards Huayu City. A purple-gold Dragon Realm King Flag was hanging high above the bow of the ship. Thunder Jade Army, who was cleaning the battlefield, unconsciously stopped and raised his head to look.

Two groups of murderous thousand-man squad rushed out from the ship and were well-trained to protect the bow of the ship. Then, eight Spirit Refining experts flew to the bow. Their powerful divine senses interweaved and swept across the entire Thunder Jade City. The majestic aura caused all Thunder Jade Army in the city to be frightened.

At this moment, a group of people walked down from the ship. The first person was as straight as a pine. He wore an extremely ordinary green robe. He looked to be around twenty years old, but his entire body emitted an unparalleled majesty. He stood out like a chicken in the crowd. Beside the green-robed man stood an old man with a hooked nose and eagle-like eyes. This golden battle general, known as Eagle Swift, was currently bowing slightly with a respectful and cautious look on his face.

At this time, a group of armored generals hurriedly walked out of Thunder Jade City. The first one with the same eagle's eyes and nose was like Chu Long. He was Chu Long's only son, Chu Hong.

Chu Hong led his subordinates to walk in front of Chu Jun. He knelt on one knee and saluted. He clasped his fists and loudly said, "At the end of the day, I will see Chu Hong to His Majesty the World King."

"Greetings, Your Majesty, World King!" The generals behind Chu Hong shouted in unison.

Chu Jun sized up Chu Hong. I noticed a hole in the armor on his left shoulder. The blood on it hasn't dried yet. I can't help but laugh secretly. You must be pretending to be more skilled, right? As a Silver Warrier , you led two hundred thousand troops to fight against forty thousand Black Fiend Army. The main general was actually injured, and the other generals were also injured. Isn't this looking down on this king's IQ?

However, Chu Jun was too lazy to tear him apart for such a harmless matter. He said indifferently, "Generals, you've worked hard. Please stand up!"

Chu Hong stood up and peeked at his father, Chu Long, a little nervously.

"General Chu, how is the battle ahead?" Chu Jun asked.

"Your Majesty, after the bloody battles of our soldiers, we annihilated more than 40,000 elite Black Fiend Demon Race soldiers and recaptured the Jade Transformation City. At the end of the day, we are preparing to send troops to recapture the Serene Jade City!" Chu Hong said loudly.

The generals behind Chu Hong revealed arrogant expressions. The Black Fiend Army was the second-ranked elite troop of the demon race!

Chu Hong only said that he had annihilated more than 40,000 Black Fiend Army soldiers, but he didn't mention that he had lost more than 80,000 people. Obviously, he wanted to show his merits, so Chu Jun didn't tear him apart. He praised, "Alright, it's indeed the tiger father without a dog!"

Chu Long smiled modestly and said, "Your Majesty, the World King, praises me absurdly. Although this bastard managed to recover the Jade Transformation City by luck, he still paid 80,000 brothers' lives. The casualties were twice that of the demon army. Let's forget about this victory!"

"You can't say that. This king has heard that the four armies of the demon race, the Red, White, Black and Purple armies, are very powerful. The 40,000 men of the Black Fiend Military Region destroyed the Jade Transformation City in less than half an hour. Their combat strength can be seen clearly. It is already quite difficult to defeat them with only twice the loss!" Chu Jun smiled.

Since he had already decided to reuse Chu Long, Chu Jun was also stingy with his words.

Chu Hong and the generals behind him couldn't help but look happy when they heard this. It seemed that Chu Shaxing wasn't as terrifying as the legends said. At the very least, he was very easy to talk to.

Chu Long chuckled and said, "If His Majesty the World King says this, I'm afraid these bastards' tails will be raised."

Chu Jun laughed heartily. He strode towards the Jade Transformation City. Chu Long hurriedly followed, Passing by his son's side, he nodded. Chu Hong saw his father's satisfied gaze. He couldn't help but feel relieved. The Chu Clan finally managed to dodge a calamity. Moreover, his father still retained the position of commander. Although the actual military power had been reduced by more than half, it was still very satisfactory. One had to know that Chu Feng and Eight Desolates King Wan Wujiang had personally gone to Zhi Ri Zhou to plead guilty and even offered up the position of commander. In the end, they were unable to escape the fate of being placed under house arrest. Compared to the Chu Clan, the result was much better.

Chu Jun entered the Jade Transformation City and stayed in the city that night.

It was night, and a silver moon hung in the sky. A figure blew out of the city walls of Jade Transformation City like a gentle breeze. Thunder Jade Army, who was patrolling the city walls, and his divine sense that was sweeping around did not discover anything.

After leaving the Jade Transformation City, this figure headed straight for the Gobi Desert.

Under the faint moonlight, the Gobi Desert was littered with rocks, reflecting a faint light. Looking down from the sky, it looked like stars.

A blue-clothed man stood quietly on a mountain rock. Under the faint moonlight, his sharp eyebrows and bright eyes were none other than Chu Jun. On the one hand, he came to Thunder Jade Continent to help Xiaoxiao take over Thunder Jade Continent, and on the other hand, he came to see Jade Spirit Pearl that he had encountered back then.

Chu Jun took a deep breath of cold night air. He remembered that it had been five or six years since he parted. He didn't know if the pure white paper-like Pearl that looked exactly like Yu'er was still in the cave of the warm jade ore vein. Back then, she said that she wanted to take her away, but later, she said that she wanted to stay in the cave and cultivate the cultivation method left behind by her master. I wonder if her spirit body has grown out of her meridians.

Chu Jun's figure flickered as he sank underground. Soon, he arrived at the Wen Yu ore vein deep underground and entered the jade cave in the ore vein with ease and familiarity.

"Squeak!"

Black Stinging, who was wrapped around Chu Jun's fingers, poked out his head and let out two low hisses, with a vigilant expression.

Chu Jun frowned. He had already entered the jade cave. How could Pearl not have noticed that his vigilance was too weak? Was it not there, or was it at a tense moment of seclusion?

Chu Jun walked along the passageway and suddenly stopped. He frowned and stared at a cave wall, only to see a palm print clearly printed on it. Chu Jun's heart trembled slightly. One had to know that the jade stones here were incomparably hard, and their hardness was comparable to a sixth or seventh grade magic treasure. They were actually easily pressed down with a deep palm print. Perhaps Jade Spirit Pearl did not have the ability to do so. Could it be that an outsider had come in?

Chu Jun knew that many people coveted the Jade Spirit. Back then, Pearl had thought that she was here to capture her. If any outsider could enter this place, her cultivation would definitely not be low. She was afraid that Pearl would be in danger.

Although Pearl was not Yu'er, she looked exactly the same as Yu'er, even her temperament and dress were the same. Compared to Zhao Yu, who was dressed in black, Chu Jun was obviously closer and trusted in Pearl, so he naturally did not want anything to happen to her.

Chu Jun quickly walked inside. Soon, he arrived outside the cave hall. He saw that the pale green light world was still there. He couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. This barrier was extremely powerful. Even a Soul Concentration Stage expert might not be able to forcefully break through it. Back then, he had used the Cold Moon divine power to avoid forcefully passing through. Since it was still there, then Pearl would probably be fine.

Chu Jun walked to the barrier and was just about to pass through when Black Snake let out a low squeak and shook his head, as if he was advising Chu Jun not to enter.

Chu Jun asked doubtfully, "Why?"

Hei Zhe shook his head, his eyes a little confused and uncertain.

Chu Jun stretched out his hand and pressed it on the barrier. The cold moonlight enveloped his entire body and pierced through with a whoosh.

Just in case, Chu Jun released the Sun Moon Divine Armor, vigilantly guarding against it.

The cave was still the same as before. The only difference was that the jade statue had disappeared. The jade cushion was still there, and there was a girl in a green dress sitting on it. Her breathtakingly beautiful face was so familiar. The young girl was turning her head when Yan Yu's blurry eyes curiously looked at Chu Jun, an uninvited guest. She was stunned, shocked, vigilant, and gentle.

Chu Jun's heart pounded, and he almost blurted out to Yu'er.

"Who are you?" The young girl asked curiously, her voice equally gentle.

Chu Jun calmed down and asked, "Are you Pearl? I'm Chu Jun, don't you remember?"

The girl's eyes suddenly widened as she stared fixedly at Chu Jun. Suddenly, she covered her mouth and exclaimed in surprise, "It's you!"

Chu Jun smiled and said, "Isn't it me?"

The girl stood up with a face full of joy.
