Walker Of The Worlds Chapter 365 - No Desire

Chapter 365 - No Desire

The eight mountains that were crus.h.i.+ng Lin Mu's heart's desire were pulverized in the next instant.

He finally looked at the desire that floated up and came towards him, pleading like a wronged child. But Lin Mu's gaze was cold, as if what he was looking at was less than dirt.

"You are not needed either…" He stated.

The desire in front of him started trembling as if dissatisfied by his thoughts. But then it suddenly grew enormous, reaching the size of a mountain. This mountain was bigger than the previous eight mountain thoughts combined.

The desire then morphed and transformed into a being that could only be called as a devil. It had swords for its arms and legs while its teeth were like daggers.

~KREEEEEE~

A soul stirring scream came from its mouth which cut upon one's heart like scythe through gra.s.s.

But Lin Mu was still the unmoving statue as before, unaffected by the scream nor the appearance of the devil.

He looked at it fearlessly and another mountain manifested behind his back. This mountain though was different and seemed as if made from countless swords. The mountain started rising, taking Lin Mu to the skies with him.

The devil seemed agitated by this and lunged forward to attack, but Lin Mu was ready for it.

"SEVER!"

He extended his hand forward and slashed it as if it were a sword.

~WEEENG~

A loud hum was heard as a t.i.tanic sword manifested in front of him. The swords swung like his hand and exterminated the devil. Not a single cry or scream was heard as all the traces of the devil were removed from this place.

***

In the real world, Zhen Sui and Wu Hei were still gazing at Lin Mu.

They couldn't move their eyes nor could they blink, for they feared that the moment they tried that they would be killed. They wanted to move but feared the same thing again. Merely a minute had pa.s.sed, but they felt as if hours had gone by.

Lin Mu finally opened his eyes and saw the pair of mother and son looking at him. But they seemed to be uneasy. In fact, in the very next second, Zhen Sui coughed and a streak of blood seeped from the corner of her lips.

Wu Hei was still able to hold on, but he was having a hard time stabilizing his core.

When Lin Mu had opened his eyes, they both had seen the same thing. It was the thing that had shocked the life out of them and made Zhen Sui cough blood.

It was a sword mountain and on top of the mountain was a throne on which sat none other than Lin Mu. But this Lin Mu was nothing like the one in front of them. This Lin Mu had an emotionless and cold gaze with eyes that could rip into the soul.

The scene lasted only for a fraction of a second, but that was already enough for it to be carved into their memories forever.

Lin Mu came to his sense and saw that while he had grasped something, he seemed to have still failed. He then looked at the two people in front of them who seemed to be injured now.

"Oh, no! Are you alright?" Lin Mu asked with concern.

He remembered the feeling he had when he first saw Jing Wei hold the short sword. The fear was quite strong, but overall he was uninjured. And this was when he was not even a real cultivator and was merely in the sixth stage of the body tempering realm.

Both the people in front of him were much stronger than that and he had thought that they would be able to take it without much problem. Besides, they had said so themselves and had given their explicit permission.

Another thing he now realized was that, if he had failed in his attempt, then why were the two injured?

Wu Hei heard Lin Mu's words and couldn't help but laugh internally.

'Alright? What joke! You just unleashed a sword intent the likes of which I've never seen before.' Wu Hei said to himself.

But still, Wu Hei did not dare to show this on his face. He knew that what they had witnessed had gone beyond what he had expected. He knew that this was also not something that could be exposed, not to mention said out loud.

There weren't many options left for him when he saw that his mother was injured and took the one that he found to be the easiest.

"We are alright brother Lin Mu. Mother was just a bit overwhelmed and her past sickness flared up. You see, she was injured a few years ago and we thought that it had healed by now. But thankfully because of you, we now know that it was not.

We can not take proper care of it and ensure that she is a hundred percent healthy again. After all, don't they say; a hidden disease is more dangerous than visible death?" Wu Hei said, lying through his teeth.

"Don't you think so, mother?" Wu Hei questioned, turning to his mother who hastily wiped away the blood from the corner of her lips.

Zhen Sui was about to say something, but then she held her tongue. She could sense the faint difference in Wu Hei's tone of voice. The difference was almost negligible, but she being the one who gave birth to Wu Hei recognized it clearly.

She could sense the faint warning in his voice and knew that this had gone beyond what she had expected. The boy was a monster no matter what angle she thought about it, and hearing the straight-up lie that her son told confirmed it.

'So he's afraid too… is this boy really his friend or something else? Is he even who he claimed to be? Is he really from the Mu clan?' Zhen Sui couldn't help but think.

Still, she heeded her son's words and reasoned appropriately.

"Yes lord Mu Lin, I'm fine. Do not worry…"
