Walker Of The Worlds-Novel

"So who is it that will be coming with me?" Lin Mu questioned.

"For this, Hua Yi will be the one guiding you. He's be there before and is also at the Adult Soul stage of the Nascent soul realm, thus he will be able to handle himself." Elder Pigu answered.

Lin Mu of course knew Hua Yi, who was the first disciple of Patriarch Hua and had met him before.

"Ah, him. Yeah, I'll be fine with him." Lin Mu accepted.

"Very well. I'll inform him then." Elder Pigu said before contacting Hua Yi with a communication jade slip.

Hua Yi and the others were currently cultivating in the Kong Plane. With the new teleportation gate ready, they could be contracted at any time. Jing Luo had finished setting it up just a day ago.

Though with Lin Mu here, they could have gone to the Kong Plane at any time they wanted to.

"He's coming," Elder Pigu said after a few seconds.

"Hmm… I'll call Little Shrubby as well then." Lin Mu said before standing up.

~WHOOSH~

Not even five seconds passed before Little Shrubby's aura could be felt outside the hall.

"Oh, seems like the beast is here already." Elder Pigu spoke, some surprise present in his eyes. "It's almost as if he read you mind."

"Yes?" Lin Mu responded.

"Huh?" Elder Pigu said in confusion. "What do you mean, yes?" he questioned.

"He did read my mind… in a way." Lin Mu responded.

"Wait, what? How's that possible?" Elder Pigu was taken aback.

"He is brother Lin Mu's tamed beast, so it is expected of course, haha." Hua Langya chuckled.

"No, I don't mean that. I mean… how is that even possible? Even if it's a tamed beast, they need verbal orders." Elder Pigu said.

"Ah, I don't need that. I just have a link with him, so we can share our thoughts." Lin Mu replied.

"That… just what kind of a beast taming technique is that?" Elder Pigu couldn't help but question.

Even the supreme elder seemed interested this time.

"They don't know about the deeper connection that a tamer can have with their beasts. They won't understand it. They use shallow beast taming techniques, so it's understandable." Xukong suddenly spoke.

Lin Mu thought over it and realized that explaining it was not really a useful venture.

"It's a technique I got from my master." Lin Mu said as an excuse.

"Oh, brother Lin Mu has a master too? I didn't know that." Elder Pigu said.

"And neither did I," The supreme elder chimed in.

"Ah yes. I think Patriarch Hua knows about it. Maybe he didn't tell you yet." Lin Mu replied.

"Where is your master though, brother Lin Mu? I mean… you are, or rather we are, in a rather sensitive situation currently with Gu Yao and the Northern Tribes. He should be helping you out, shouldn't he?" Elder Pigu questioned.

Supreme elder raised his brows in regards to this question and spoke, "Elder Pigu, you should frame your words better."

"It's fine." Lin Mu responded, having expected such as question long time ago.

He had already been asked the question several times before by several different people and was not bothered by it.

"My master is usually in seclusion and will only come out when the time is right. He wants me to deal with the trouble on my own so that I can learn and grow. In his words… he doesn't want me to be a 'flower in a greenhouse'." Lin Mu answered.

"That is an admirable approach from your master." The Supreme elder said in a content tone. ɴᴇᴡ ɴᴏᴠᴇʟ ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛᴇʀs ᴀʀᴇ ᴘᴜʙʟɪsʜᴇᴅ ᴏɴ Noᴠelꜰire

"Though we don't need to worry as he is watching everything." Lin Mu added.

"He is? Even now?" Elder Pigu asked.

"Indeed." Lin Mu nodded his head.

Elder Pigu couldn't help but feel a bit nervous and check the area with his spirit sense. He was a hundred percent sure that there was no one other than them here.

"How is that possible?" Elder Pigu asked, feeling doubtful.

"I don't know that either." Lin Mu simply replied.

"Huh?"

"My master is reserved and only speaks when necessary. I don't know how he does it or what technique he uses, but he can observe my every move." Lin Mu explained.

"Brother Lin Mu's master must be a peerless expert for him to be able to do this." The Supreme elder praised.

"He certainly knows when to flatter. Guess it comes with his age and experience." Xukong said with a chuckle.

Having known that Xukong was watching the entire time, Hua Langya knew what he said could matter and thus giving free praise like this was beneficial potentially.

Lin Mu who heard Xukong's words, couldn't help but chuckle internally as well.

"Haha, you could say that." Lin Mu spoke, knowing that it was a fact.

Even he didn't know what Xukong's cultivation base was. But he did know it was above that of the Immortal Realm. He had seen Xukong's true form in the Grand Void and knew that beings known as celestials would be nothing in front of him.

If anything, Lin Mu could understand that the word celestial was powerful and beyond what he had learned till now. It was such that he couldn't even speak the word due to the restrictions of the world.

While this was happening, the gaze of the supreme elder and Elder Pigu went dull. Then the next second, horrified expressions appeared on their face.

~thud~

Elder Pigu stumbled a little and had to grab onto the table for support.

"Are you okay?" Lin Mu asked, seeing their strange condition.

He found it to be a bit familiar but couldn't tell what it was exactly.

"I'm fine! I'm fine. Brother Lin Mu need not worry." Elder Pigu hurriedly said.

"Yes, yes. It's all fine. Brother Lin Mu should get ready to leave now, I think. I'll ask the disciples to prepare some supplies for your journey." The Supreme elder added.

Lin Mu found it to be a bit strange seeing the change, but nodded his head and headed out.
