Chapter 352 - Officially Meeting Lord Cai

”Ah~ Young Lord Mu Lin! You finally came back~” A woman spoke.

Lin Mu instantly knew who it was just from the feeling on his arm and turning around to look at the source confirmed it.

A bright smile greeted Lin Mu as the woman named Yue looked into his eyes.

”Young lord looks even more handsome today… Ah~ Iʼll melt~” Yue flirted as she squished his arm even more.

Lin Mu looked at her closely and saw that she was wearing a different type of robe today. It was multilayered and had fairy bands hanging from it. The robe was quite revealing like the previous one but was of a much better quality from what he could perceive.

He had to admit that it did look good on her.

”Thank you…” Lin Mu replied simply.

”Ahem,” Wu Hei interrupted.

Lin Mu gave him a thanking look for that and waited for him to speak.

”I believe we are getting late. We should pay our greetings to Lord Cai.” Wu Hei said, saving Lin Mu from the awkwardness.

”Oh, Iʼm sorry.” Yue apologized. ”Please come, Iʼll guide you to the owner. They are sitting in the private section for now and are waiting for the rest of the guests to arrive. After half of them arrive, we will move onto the central area for the banquet.” She explained.

”Alright, thatʼs fine.” Wu Hei replied.

Lin Mu nodded in approval as well, and she left his arm. They were then guided into a different part of the Alluring Wisteria pavilion. This was opposite to the one that Lin Mu had been to and was rather small. Yue nodded to the pair of guards that were standing at the entrance and they cupped their hands in salute.

”Owner some honored guests are here to meet you,” Yue said after knocking on the door of the room.

~Slide~

The door was opened by a servant woman and an old man walked out of it.

”What a pleasant surprise, Lord Hei! I never expected that you would visit when I sent you the invitation.” Lord Cai joked.

”Lord Cai was correct, I must admit…” Wu Hei countered, ”but my friend here was invited as well, so how could I not present him.” He added.

”Ahaha, you jest.” The old man lagged before taking a look at Lin Mu. ”And may I have the honor of knowing your name, sir?”

”This is Young Lord Mu Lin that I informed you about before owner,” Yue spoke with excitement.

Lord Caiʼs eyes lit up at this moment as he scanned Lin Mu from top to bottom. Looking at his clothes he could tell that he was an aristocrat, but his temperament showed something else. In his life, he had met a lot of people from all walks of life and could gauge them rather easily.

Just from the faint aura that Mu Lin exuded, he could tell that he was no simple man. He had heard the entire report from Yue and the madam before, thus knew that Mu Lin was quite strong; at least stronger than himself.

He was now even more interested, as he knew who Lord Hei was. Perhaps he was among the few people in the city that actually knew Lord Hei was none other than the youngest son of the city mayor Wu Xun. Just from this, he increased the importance attached to Mu Lin.

ʼHe must be someone influential if Wu Hei was willing to present him.ʼ Lord Cai thought.

”So it is, Lord Mu Lin. I am happy that you are willing to give us another chance. I believe your experience this time will be better.” Lord Cai spoke.

”I am happy to meet with you too, Lord Cai. Hopefully, weʼll have some good conversations.” Lin Mu replied.

”Oh, I almost forgot. The few imbeciles that offended Lord Mu Lin have been punished well. But if the Lord wants, he can do whatever he wants with him as he pleases.” Lord Cai stated with a toothy grin.

”No, it is fine. I do not wish to be bothered.” Lin Mu said as he lightly shook his head.

”Letʼs talk inside then. We have some other guests that I would like to meet you too.” Lord Cai gestured for them to enter.

Lin Mu and Wu Hei walked in while Yue followed behind. The room was rather large, much larger than the other rooms in the eastern and western wings that Lin Mu had seen. He did a quick sweep with his spirit sense and got a layout of the entire building.

There were multiple smaller rooms attached to this one, and Lin Mu could also feel the Formations that were set up. Finally, he saw the other people that were in the room currently. They were none other than the disciples of the Tri cauldron peony sect. Including the three he saw before, there were four more, all of them men.

”Seniors! Please meet Lord Wu Hei and Lord Mu Lin!” Lord Cai introduced.

Yueʼs ears perked up after hearing the full name of Lord Hei.

ʼWu Hei? The youngest son of the mayor, whoʼs elusive. Then this means… young lord Mu Lin is even more special than I thought. No wonder Lord Cai had that look in his eyes.ʼ Yue thought to herself as she stole a glance from Lin Mu.

The people in the room looked at them, but not all of them spoke, some merely nodding their heads gently.

”Pleased to meet you, I am Fa Lao,” The man who Lin Mu only knew as senior brother greeted.

The others greeted and introduced themselves as well, but Lin Muʼs mind was on the senior brother.

ʼFa Lao? Is he related to the junior elder Fa Shiu, perhaps?ʼ Lin Mu wondered.

”Ahaha! Lord Wu Hei is as impressive as was described to us by Lord Teng. The peak master was also wondering when he would have the chance to meet you seeing the two of you are going to be related soon.” Quan Hong stated.
