Chapter 414 - I’ll Return Soon...

Lin Mu's command reached Little Shrubby through the link he had with him and the beast came rus.h.i.+ng out of the house. During the time he was away from the northern town, Lin Mu had been checking up on little shrubby through the link and had found it to be fine.

There really wasn't any trouble that happened during that time and Lin Mu did not sense any danger either. Lin Mu directly flew over to his house, ignoring the shocked gazes of the townsmen that looked at him. He was flying on a spirit sword so it was obvious that he would catch a lot of attention.

Lin Mu looked at Little Shrubby, who had clearly grown quite a bit by now. He was about thirty percent bigger than its original size, and his fur had also gotten thicker.

"There you are, we need to go quickly…" Lin Mu said to the beast.

"Okay!" Lin Mu heard the response in his head.

"Whoa! You can speak clearly now." Lin Mu said, feeling surprised.

Lin Mu observed him using his spirit sense and discovered that the beast was already at the peak stage of the qi refining realm.

"Me, can, yes," Little shrubby spoke again, in broken words.

"Huh, seems like you will need more practice… well for now we need to rush." Lin Mu said before entering his house.

He went to his backyard, where the graves of his parents were.

"Father, mother, I wanted to give you a better farewell, but the situation is not appropriate. Forgive my insolence." Lin Mu said before placing his hands on the two graves.

His spirit sense split into multiple and spread around the area. Lin Mu then willed it and the two graves were directly stored into his ring along with most of the soil around him. A five meter wide and three meter deep hole was opened up on the ground and Lin Mu fell into him.

He quickly balanced himself and landed on his legs. Lin Mu came out of the hole and took out the formation plate. The illusory formation was still active, but he didn't know if the others would be able to find his house.

With Gu Yao in the equation, all the a.s.surances he had were thrown out of the window. Senior Xukong was still not responding, and he knew he could not waste time in hesitation.

Lin Mu kneeled in front of Little shrubby, and picked it up in his arms.

"We need to some place far now…" Lin Mu muttered.

"Us, far? Okay!" It responded.

Lin Mu placed Little Shrubby on his back and told him to hold on. Little Shrubby simply extended its claws and latched onto Lin Mu's clothes that were already a bit torn from all the battles he had been in the past few hours.

He then jumped on the spirit sword and flew in the direction of the Northern forest.

The members of the Hei corps had seen Lin Mu flying over the city and were rus.h.i.+ng to see him as well. They had received a letter from the Lord that there was going to be some trouble, but they did not know what exactly it was.

They wanted to hear it from Lin Mu, but he gave them no chance as he flew away rather fast. He was already holding two more spirit stones in his hands to supply him with the spirit qi. With the uninterrupted supply of spirit qi from the stones and the replenishment of his dantian from the basic qi pills, Lin Mu's condition was improving by the minute.

~shua~

Lin Mu's robes fluttered in the wind as his gaze sharpened. He knew that he had gone past the point from where there was no return. He had already started to plan ahead and now needed to start the next part of his plan as fast as possible.

Lin Mu knew that Gu Yao could catch up with him if he slowed down even a bit. The Nascent soul realm cultivator could fly, and Gu Yao was even at the pseudo Dao sh.e.l.l realm. Lin Mu had seen how the supreme elder of the Tri cauldron Peony sect had reached the Wu Lim city in just a few hours by flying and knew the speed at which Gu Yao would be able to travel at.

Lin Mu had still not heard from Xukong and thus knew that he must still be holding up Gu Yao at the city. He didn't know how he was doing it from so far apart, but just attributed it to him being Xukong.

Two hours pa.s.sed like this, and Lin Mu had crossed over four hundred kilometers like this. But this did not come without a cost. His meridians were aching due to the constant use of large amount of spirit qi, and his store of spirit stones had also been reduced by about fifty.

Lin Mu landed on the ground and placed the short sword in the sheath.

"We'll continue on foot from there…" Lin Mu said.

"Okay!" Little Shrubby replied in the same manner as before.

It didn't seem like he had much of an opinion in what Lin Mu said and simply followed what he was saying. They started running and Lin Mu remembered how fast Little shrubby really was. His speed had increased even more now that he had reached the peak stage of the qi refining realm.

In fact, he was faster than what Lin Mu was when he was flying on the short sword.

'I guess there really wasn't a need for me to carry him, huh? It could have easily outrun me if I left him to it…' Lin Mu thought.

Lin Mu looked around and scanned the area with his spirit sense. He was able to somewhat recognize the area and knew that he had traveled about one tenth of the distance to the cave where the Great Slumber bear was sleeping in.

~huu~

Lin Mu took a deep breath before opening his eyes that s.h.i.+ned with determination.

"I'll return soon…"
