The act of abducting the common girl isn't just something that happens in stories; often, Chu Mu would put himself in the shoes of others, thinking if he would do the same if the person he liked didn't belong to him.
Following Ning Man'er to that part of North Village, Chu Mu noticed that the houses here were newer and shabbier, with many remains of old housings on the ground.
North Village probably had around a hundred households. Although these villages were independent of each other, they were not actually far apart, resembling districts within a city, with frequent trade among them, and were not as backward as some small mountain villages might seem.
After seeing the "bullies" Ning Man'er mentioned, Chu Mu was very disappointed.
Because apart from one guy who had quasi-Emperor strength, the rest were merely at Monarch Level. They weren't even fit to warm up a Soul Pet, let alone train one.
