Chapter 1611 Starting Point
Chu Mo's ambition was never concerned with power, status, or fame. It's not that he was so lofty in his aspirations; it's just that his goals lay elsewhere.
However, he did not mind Chu Chu having such ambitions; whether she was his sister or not, she was clearly his closest soul mate in this world. Chu Mo initially considered whom to push forward to establish a force, similar to Piaomiao Palace during the Yanhuang era. He simply did not want to be in that spotlight. Chu Mo had considered Zi Dao but eventually abandoned it because Zi Dao was a traitor to the Luoshui Family.
It is believed that no matter how broad-minded the Luoshui Family is, they could hardly tolerate such a thing.
Chu Mo also considered Gu Bingbing; if there was really no more suitable candidate, Gu Bingbing could be an option. However, her experience was still somewhat limited, and her desire to break free from the Ancient God Family would likely be challenging.
Now with Chu Chu, this choice naturally need not be worried.
Thus, for Chu Mo, this was the best possible outcome. This trip to the Luoshui Family yielded the greatest harvest in gaining Chu Chu as a sister.
Moreover, he managed to take away a renegade like Luo Feihong. Judging from any angle, he was a true Heavenly Genius. Especially his study of the path of reincarnation, he could absolutely be considered a colossal figure in the entire Tunnel.
Such talent, to be honest, is one of those rare finds that cannot be easily sought. If it weren't for his strong affection for Chu Chu, which he showed repeatedly, Chu Mo wouldn't have had much confidence in attracting such talent.
Now, it was down to those six here. Chu Mo planned to later have Luo Feihong examine their souls, and then at an opportune moment, have Luo Feihong look at the souls of the six Great Saints.
At the same time, let them make a choice among themselves. Ultimately, select the most suitable method from among them to deal with the matter.
The speed at which the Kunpeng, Roc, Cat, Fox, Bull, and Snowy Sea Dragon arrived here was faster than Chu Mo had expected. From this, it could be seen that Luo Feihong's influence within the Luoshui Family was considerable. Borrowing these somewhat sensitive spiritual beings faced not a shred of obstacle.
In fact, currently, most of the people with high status and standing within the Luoshui Family are cautiously flattering this unparalleled genius.
Luo Feihong is entitled to be flattered; his talent is outstanding. What's crucial is that he has no ambition! That's the fundamental reason everyone entertains his requests with such grace. Who wouldn't like someone exceptionally powerful yet lacking any ambition and not clinging to power?
However, if those people knew about the thoughts of Chu Chu behind Luo Feihong, they would certainly slam the table and swear vehemently. Unfortunately, they don't know.
The Kun, Roc, Cat, Fox, Bull, Snowy Sea Dragon, these six ancestral realm beings were utterly confused upon arriving here. They didn't know why they were here, and until they met each other, they didn't even know their other brothers were here.
Upon meeting, the six of them were all very happy, yet their hearts were even more puzzled. This renowned Young Master Feihong had borrowed them, but to do what?
"I've heard that Miss Chu Chu has been by Young Master Feihong's side. Could it be Miss Chu Chu who summoned us here?" The Kun, transformed into a handsome young man, said with a slight frown.
"I suppose...unlikely." The Cat commented from the side: "We don't seem to share such a bond with Miss Chu, do we?"
"Why guess? We'll find out soon. Given our situation now, how much worse could it get even if it does worsen?" The Bull chimed in.
"Old Niu is right, don't think too much." The Snowy Sea Dragon, transformed into a dazzling man, remarked with a laugh.
Not long after, when a mysterious figure led them to the City Lord's Mansion, to the underground space protected by tens of thousands of layers of arrays, they finally understood the reason for their summons.
Watching the projections of the six Great Saints released by Chu Mo in the void, the six beings of the ancestral realm were all stunned. They stared blankly at the images, then looked foolishly at Chu Mo.
Chu Mo smiled slightly: "I am Chu Mo, pleased to meet you all!"
The Bull Demon Patriarch looked at Chu Mo with a moved expression, speaking solemnly: "Are you that Young Master Chu?"
The other five powerful ancestral realm beings also looked at Chu Mo in surprise: "You are the Young Master Chu who cut off his divine status?"
"Has this matter spread so widely?" Chu Mo showed a helpless smile.
"Of course, through endless ages, those who can destroy their own divine status on the ancient battlefield, refusing to ascend the Investiture of the Gods, are very few indeed, and Young Master Chu is one of them." Kun, the patriarch, said.
"Speaking of which, from the moment we heard this news, we've been filled with curiosity and admiration for Young Master Chu. Furthermore, knowing where Young Master Chu hails from, we've speculated that Young Master Chu might be an anomaly. Because over in our land, there isn't a known genius named Chu Mo. At least...we've never heard of one." The Fox Patriarch smiled and said.
Chu Mo chuckled: "Fox Patriarch, are you familiar with the Cold Moon Blade?"
"That was one of the holy artifacts I forged once..." Fox Patriarch looked at Chu Mo with slight surprise: "How does Young Master Chu know?"
Chu Mo said: "I used the Cold Moon Blade for a time in the past."
Chu Mo spoke without much suspense, directly recounting the various connections between him and the six Great Saints. Naturally, this also included the seventh Great Saint that doesn't exist in their world—a monkey.
When Chu Mo finished speaking, all six non-human ancestral beings were shocked into silence.
After a long while, the Bull Demon Patriarch finally said, "Although I have always been able to sense that there exists another 'me' in this world, and although I know that these matters truly exist, when such a thing actually happens to oneself, it still feels so magical. Honestly, I really want to meet that 'me,' and I am very keen to meet those 'yous'."
The others all nodded, "If it weren't for the fear of ominous occurrences, we would also want to meet them."
The Fox Patriarch said, "Didn't expect that in that world, there are six of us, and an extra brother. I'd really like to meet him too."
Chu Mo chuckled, "There will definitely be an opportunity. For now, I'm planning to have Luo Feihong take a look at your soul components. What do you all think?"
Chu Mo had just explained a little about Luo Feihong's speculation to them.
The six ancestors naturally nodded in agreement; they were not unwise beings. It was obvious that Chu Mo was trying to help them. Having lived for so many years and cultivated to such a high realm, if they didn't understand even this, it truly would have been a wasted life.
Then, Luo Feihong came over with Chu Chu.
The six ancestors saw Chu Chu, then looked at Chu Mo, and all had a moment of realization. They silently thought: No wonder I felt a very familiar sensation upon seeing Chu Mo just now. The key is that the blood energy on Chu Mo is too intense, forming a field that's completely different from Chu Chu's. For a time, they hadn't thought of this.
Now, after seeing Chu Chu, one glance was enough to tell that the two looked remarkably alike!
Luo Feihong wasted no time and directly began to perform the Great Dao of Reincarnation, examining the souls of these six beings. Then, he memorized their souls and nodded at Chu Mo: "Brother, I've got a good idea."
Brother?
The six ancestors were all somewhat dazed, looking at Chu Mo and Luo Feihong, then at Chu Chu, as if beginning to understand something.
Afterward, Luo Feihong looked at Chu Mo and said, "I want to take a trip to Canggu City with you. This matter... I am quite eager!"
In this world, there are martial arts enthusiasts, obsessed with martial arts; there are Dao enthusiasts, obsessed with the Dao. Luo Feihong is purely an academic enthusiast... also considered a Dao enthusiast. With what is called the joy of hunting, he had never generated this kind of thought before, and never wanted to leave Chu Chu for a moment. But upon seeing the souls of the six ancestors, he immediately generated a desire to confirm and resolve the matter as soon as possible.
Once this idea came to be, it was uncontrollable.
Regarding Luo Feihong's idea, the six ancestors were naturally strongly supportive, because they also wanted to know what would happen when meeting their alternate selves.
Chu Chu was somewhat displeased, after all, she had just decided on something she wanted to do, and needed a lot of support from Luo Feihong to accomplish it. Luo Feihong's departure certainly wouldn't be short.
Looking at Chu Chu, Chu Mo chuckled and said, "Don't be too impatient with this matter. Right now, many eyes are watching you; don't expose your intentions too early."
Chu Chu thought about it, understood Chu Mo's point, and then smiled brightly, "Alright then, I'll stay here for now. Coincidentally, there are these six old friends here, along with the defensive strength of One Side City, no one can harm me."
Luo Feihong looked at Chu Chu, surprised, "You're not going with me?"
"There's a pile of things here, why would I go with you?" Chu Chu rolled her eyes at Luo Feihong.
Luo Feihong said, "To negotiate with Gu Bingbing, aren't our plans requiring someone like Gu Bingbing to join us?"
"..." Chu Chu looked at Luo Feihong speechlessly, then slapped her forehead, "How come I didn't think of that?"
Chu Mo was also feeling speechless, glancing at the nonchalant-looking Luo Feihong, and thought: This guy seems carefree and rebellious, yet he's astonishingly smart. He doesn't provoke vigilance because he appears so lazy. So lazy that no one's guard is raised around him.
Perhaps... that's the most terrifying thing about him? Chu Mo thought to himself: Hopefully... he can maintain this state indefinitely. Such a person, once he develops other thoughts, it would spell disaster.
Then, a group of people quickly decided that the six ancestors would temporarily guard One Side City here. Then Luo Feihong took Chu Chu and together with Chu Mo, quietly headed for Canggu City!
In later generations, countless people speculated about how that terrifying alliance was initially formed. How did a woman from the lower universe manage to accomplish all of this? Even with Luo Feihong's support, how could she make all the top-tier talented heirs of the ancient clans bow down?
Few knew that this undocumented trip to Canggu City was truly the starting point of that terrifying alliance...
