Chapter 1647: Chapter 1507: Wupan Worm Plague

“In the distant Henghai, on the other side of Henghai, deep within the World Ridge, at the very end of the ridge, lie territories unexplored by humans, claimed by other races such as the Sea Clan, Demon Race, Beast Clan, Ghost Clan, and Flower Clan. These major clans possess strength not inferior to that of us humans,” explained Ning Family Master.

Voices of astonishment spread throughout the hall of the mountain villa; shocked expressions served as testament to just how startling this news was!

Upon hearing these words, Liu Binglan was suddenly reminded of something. She opened her Space Ring and specifically took out the letter from Chu Mu delivered by Pang Yue.

In the letter, Chu Mu mentioned that he had some matters to attend to with the Sea Clan.

Could it be that the Sea Clan he mentioned is the same one that the Ning Family Master spoke of, which has a civilization on par with humans?

Liu Binglan originally thought that the ‘Sea Clan’ referred to by Chu Mu was merely some special Soul Pet Race inhabiting a certain sea area. Now, she suspected that Chu Mu was definitely involved with this Sea Clan civilization.

But how did Chu Mu manage to interact with those from the Sea Clan?

After stating this information, Ning Family Master didn’t speak further, understanding that accepting such a fact could be difficult for some newcomers.

But the truth is the truth. Ning Family Master’s own expression was hardly calmer than the rest when he first learned of this news.

Even more, Ning Family Master had phrased things rather delicately, for in truth humans were somewhat inferior to these five major clans!

“Then may I ask, Ning Family Master, how do we coexist with these major races? Why have we never known about them before, nor seen any creatures from other civilizations?” a young Sect Master asked.

“That’s easy to explain. Creatures from other clan civilizations are Soul Pets. Even if you have seen creatures from other civilizations, they are still mere Soul Pets in your eyes. Just as Soul Pets do not comprehend our civilization, we do not understand theirs. It’s not that you haven’t seen them; it’s that we simply lack the necessary communication,” replied Ning Family Master.

“If that’s the case, how do the Imperial Clan members know of these civilizations? Do you possess a way to communicate with these races?” someone else inquired.

Ning Family Master did not answer this question, instead casting a glance at the Elder Family Head of the Hidden-Pupil Imperial Family.

The Elder from the Hidden-Pupil Imperial Family responded indifferently, “The Five Great Races have their envoys, most of whom take the form of half-human and half-pet. They possess high intelligence like us and are born with the ability to mimic language and thought. Whenever the Five Races wish to communicate with humans, they send these envoys to negotiate with us.”

“Half-human and half-pet? Could that refer to the Abnormal Series?”

The moment the question was posed, many eyes turned toward Bai Yu.

Knowing that Bai Yu was an Abnormal Human, some began to wonder, following Ning Family Master’s revelation, whether Half-demon Bai Yu could be an envoy from another race’s civilization.

“The Abnormal Series are not envoys. The bloodlines of foreign envoys are mixed with some human genetics, but they are mainly from foreign races,” Master Rong interjected at this point.

With this clarification from Master Rong, the strange gazes were shifted away from Bai Yu.

Nevertheless, some people became intrigued, and King Ning, brimming with interest, eyed Bai Yu and asked, “Mr. Bai Yu, since you can transform into a demon, surely you can communicate freely with the Nightmare Demon Clan. I assume that nearing the Orderly Land of the World Ridge, you can come and go as you please?”

It was well known to many that, in addition to the Five Great Races, there were other Soul Pet Races with extremely formidable strength, such as the Nightmare Demon Clan from the Land of Order, another existence humans greatly feared.

“No, they don’t welcome me either,” Bai Yu replied lightly.

“Well, at least we humans accept you,” taunted the leader of the Elemental Sect Wind Faction.

“Some people shouldn’t too hastily consider themselves human,” Bai Yu calmly retorted.

The Sect leader of the Wind Faction turned pale, not expecting Bai Yu to talk back!

With so many leaders present, it was not appropriate for the Sect leader of the Wind Faction to say too much, so he had to swallow his anger for now and muttered in a voice only he could hear, “Just you wait and see!”

“We have certain agreements with these major clans. Under normal circumstances, a large-scale war does not occur,” Ning Family Master continued.

Humans often face disasters, but these calamities are mostly caused by some other Soul Pet Dynasties, which, compared to the entire Human Clan and the other Five Great Races, are certainly much weaker.

If one of those Five Great Races were to wage a racial war against humans, it would not simply be a disaster; it would be a catastrophe!

“Today, let’s discuss the matter of constructing the Silent Forest Fortress. Some subordinate races within the Beast Clan civilization have become unrestrained and have begun to appear frequently in the northwest territory of Wupan Continent. Who are the Territory Masters of this generation?” Ning Family Master said.

As he concluded, four Boundary Masters stood up and paid their respects to Ning Family Master.

Only matters threatening human survival of this magnitude would be brought up at the Liangkun Conference. The situation in the Silent Forest is worsening, and if the Beast Clan civilization indeed exists, then this fortress in the Silent Forest is directly bordering the territory of the Beast Clan from whom the serious disasters are coming.

“This matter pertains to Wupan Territory, but since it concerns the safety of all of humanity, I believe that every member present has a duty to lend their aid,” Ning Family Master’s gaze swept across the more than two hundred individuals present.

These two hundred individuals represented the highest echelons of human authority. It was no exaggeration to say that the fate of countless humans lay in their hands, and they were fully qualified to influence the prosperity and decline of such significant racial affairs.

“We will be summoning experts from each of your forces to head to the Silent Forest. If an individual is named, I hope there will be no refusal… Do we all agree?” Ning Family Master asked.

Ning Family Master’s gaze once again swept over everyone present.

The words of a royal family head are basically irrefutable, especially when it concerns the well-being of the entire human race, defying such a decision is tantamount to rebelling against the entire race!

Nobody said anything more; such matters required compliance with the royal family’s arrangements, no matter which faction it was.

“I object.” Suddenly, a cold and deep voice was heard.

The Hall fell into abrupt silence after the voice sounded, as people turned their attention toward the person who dared to voice opposition.

Xiao Xue’ang ignored those gazes and calmly spoke to the Ning Family Master: “Whoever committed the crime should bear the consequence; there’s no need for others to take responsibility for their greed.”

After speaking, Xiao Xue’ang deliberately glanced at certain individuals sitting in the leader seats.

“I don’t like the job of wiping others’ butts either,” King Ning of the Ning Royal Dynasty said with a mercantile tone.

Though sharing the Ning surname, it was surprising that King Ning did not comply with the Ning Family Master’s wish, raising speculation whether there was dissent between the two significant figures.

“Letting everyone share the responsibility for the mistakes of certain individuals is not quite appropriate, is it?” the Old Sect Master of the Xuan Immortal Sect also spoke up.

Only figures of leader-level stature could dare to express opposing views.

There was no significant change in the Ning Family Master’s expression; he looked around with an enquiring gaze at the other family heads.

The other family heads nodded slightly, indicating that since several leaders had objections, the matter certainly could not be dealt with as previously discussed.

“Let’s set this matter aside for now,” said the Ning Family Master.

“The Wupan worm plague has broken out in the eastern part of Wupan Continent, and casualty data has already been sent to everyone present. This plague first appeared ten years ago and now has almost swept through every inhabited city on the eastern end of Wupan Continent. The countless infected and sick are still spreading, and even the local Boundary Masters and Xuan Immortal Sect are struggling to find a response. If no one has a better solution, we can only deploy armies to clear out all plague sufferers to prevent further spread.”

Wupan worm plague is a horrifying insect species plague in the eastern part of Wupan Continent. This stubborn disease has existed too long and has lurking and infection effects. If not controlled properly, once it spreads to larger cities, it is unknown how many would perish.

There are precedents in history for plagues resulting in a decline of several percent of the human population, and the Wupan worm plague seems to have such a tendency!

“Deploy armies to sweep up? Isn’t that a bit inhumane? It might provoke a severe backlash,” the female head of the Divine Sect said.

“Does the Divine Sect have a better solution?” Ning Family Master inquired.

The female head was at a loss for an immediate answer.

At that moment, the female head seemed to think of something and looked toward the seats assigned to the special powers.

She stood up, bowed slightly and said, “Saintess Yu of Guangyue Palace has a special understanding of Flower type’s blessing skills; perhaps she can resolve this plague?”

“Oh?” Ning Family Master’s eyebrow raised slightly, looking at Saintess Yu, the female head just mentioned.

Saintess Yu sat there quietly with a veil covering her face, with an ethereal temperament like a delicate snow lotus from the Heavenly Mountains.

With such an introduction by the female head, all eyes turned to Saintess Yu, and many were secretly astonished, not expecting to see such a dazzling woman at the meeting – her veiled appearance gave people an elusive feeling.

“Saintess Yu of Guangyue Palace, do you have a solution for this plague?” asked Ning Family Master, observing Saintess Yu for a moment.

Saintess Yu smiled faintly, exuding elegance and modesty.

“I don’t know much about the matters of Wupan Continent, but I’m willing to try to resolve this worm plague,” said Saintess Yu, her voice delightfully melodious.

“Young lady, how confident are you?” King Ning turned around, asking with a rare serious look on his face.

“So far, there hasn’t been a plague I couldn’t resolve,” Saintess Yu replied with a smile.

“Really?” King Ning showed a trace of joy.

“King Ning, Saintess Yu has resolved over twenty immortal level plagues in Struggle Land, saving lives that could be counted by the billions. Every festival period, those who come to Guangyue Palace to express their gratitude often line from Guangyue Palace to outside the inner city… You can be assured of the Saintess’s abilities,” said the Old Sect Master of the Xuan Immortal Sect, stroking his beard.

“Yeah, very well. I will ask Lady Yu to visit my Wupan Continent after the meeting,” King Ning said.

Being personally invited by King Ning was an unparalleled honor!

Nobody expected that the Saintess Yu of Guangyue Palace would suddenly receive such a generous offer! (.)
