Walker Of The Worlds

Chapter 354 - Iʼm From Fenlong Kingdom Too...

Lord Cai and the disciples of the Tri cauldron peony sect looked on with furrowed brows.

”How did this… Gu legion offend Lord Mu Lin?” Lord Cai asked after thinking carefully.

Wu Hei was about to say something when Lin Mu secretly tapped him on his arm. Knowing he wanted to do this himself, he stopped himself.

”The Gu Legion did not actually offend me, but rather my master.” Lin Mu revealed.

Wu Hei Raised his brows in surprise but then calmed down and understood Lin Muʼs idea.

”My master is not someone who likes to be disturbed and as such directed me to deal with it.” Lin Mu stated.

He didnʼt say why or when but knew that Lord Cai would not question this. They knew of the respect that was between a master and Disciple, the Tri cauldron peony sect disciples knew it even more, thus no one questioned Lin Mu coming after the Gu Legion.

”I see…” Lord Cai muttered and thought for a bit.

”May I know where Lord Mu Lin is from?” Quan Hong asked with a bit of apprehension.

Quan hong knew of nearly all clans and sects in the Shuang Qian kingdom and he didnʼt think that there was any clan surnamed Mu. From Lin Muʼs attire and his friendship with Lord Wu Hei, he knew that he was an aristocrat but not from where.

If he was from a rival sect or a clan that they didnʼt have a good relationship with, it would make things complex.

”I come from the Mu clan of Fenlong kingdom.” Lin Mu answered.

”Fenlong Kingdom?” Tie Dan said unfamiliar with the name.

A similar response was presented by most of the people except for Yue.

”I… Iʼm afraid I do not know of any kingdom such as this,” Lord Cai said.

A small smile appeared on Wu Heiʼs face as this was exactly what he wanted to happen. Lin Mu also kept a calm expression and did not panic.

”Umm… owner Cai may I speak something?” Yue said in a meek voice.

Lord Cai looked up at her and then at the others. Seeing that no one was bothered by the interruption he nodded his head.

”Go ahead,” he stated.

”I know of the Fenlong kingdom, owner Cai.” Yue stated.

Now it was the turn for Wu Hei and Lin Mu to be surprised. The Fenlong kingdom was truly low key and barely anyone knew them. In fact, some of the powers and kingdoms didnʼt even consider them to be a true kingdom and merely thought of them as a vassal that was ignored by the emperor.

The Fenlong kingdom didnʼt really have many resources either thus it was easily ignored by the Empire. The only contact they had with them was of the yearly tributes that were sent by them, which wasnʼt much either.

”You know of it? Then please say more, Iʼd like to hear what the others know of my kingdom.” Lin Mu suddenly said with a slight smile.

”Seems like Lord Mu Lin and I have more in common than we thought… Iʼm from the Fenlong kingdom too~” Yue said with a blush.

Lin Muʼs smile turned flat and Wu Hei almost dropped the cup in his hands.

”You are?” Lord Cai asked while tilting his head.

”Yes, owner. I came to the Shuang Qian kingdom ten years ago along with a trade caravan. Before that, I used to live in Fenlong kingdom.” Yue answered.

Lin Mu and Wu Hei now truly did not know what to say. If it was found out that Lin Mu was not from the Mu clan, things could become troublesome. Wu Heiʼs expression tensed up for a bit and he wondered if he should interrupt here.

”Iʼve even had the fortune of visiting the Mu clan once, Lord Mu Lin,” Yue stated.

Now Wu Hei and Lin Mu truly were shocked. Lin Muʼs finger slightly rubbed the ring on his hand and his spirit sense spread out. He was ready to act if anything wrong was said.

”If I killed them all it shouldnʼt really bother, Wu Hei right?” Lin Mu asked in his mind as some red veins appeared in his eyes.

”Why are you asking me, ask him. But Iʼm pretty sure if you kill them in the middle of a big event like this, it would be quite hard to hide it.” Xukong advised.

For a moment there, everyone in the room felt chills going down their spine but didnʼt know why. Lord Cai even flinched slightly and looked around, but couldnʼt find anything troublesome.

ʼAm I still jumpy from the attack?ʼ the old man questioned himself.

”Oh? You did? Thatʼs unexpected…” Lin Mu said, continuing the conversation.

”Yes, the Mu clan bought some goods from the caravan once. But I only got to see it from the outside and didnʼt really meet anyone from there except for the steward and servants.” Yue replied.

~phew~

A breath of relief was taken by both Lin Mu and Wu Hei.

”Ha ha!” Wu Hei suddenly laughed. ”Even if you had met brother Mu Lin back then, I doubt you would have recognized him now.” Wu Hei added.

”Oh? Why so? Iʼm good at remembering people.” Yue asked in a teasing tone.

”Because I would have been six years old.” Lin Mu answered that.

”Huh? What…?” Yue had a blank expression after hearing that.

Lord Cai and the disciples also looked at Lin Mu like they had seen something shocking.

”Senior he canʼt really be… that young can he?” Tie Dan whispered.

Fa Lao secretly sensed the fluctuation coming from Lin Mu and had a doubtful expression on his face too.

”Heʼs at the peak stage of the qi refining realm…” Fa Lao muttered.

His fellow disciples and the old man were all cultivators and thus were able to clearly hear this.

”A peak stage qi refining realm cultivator… that too at the age of sixteen…” Lord Cai repeated.

Now the looks on everyoneʼs faces had changed after hearing the confirmation.
