Walker Of The Worlds

Lin Mu had seen Duan Ke multiple times, but this was the first time he had seen her break her composure and show such a surprised expression. For this very reason, he felt that something was wrong or he may have done something wrong.

"Is there something wrong?" Lin Mu asked cautiously.

Duan Mu came to her senses and realised that she had shown a surprised expression. When she saw Lin Mu's concerned face, she understood that he had noticed it this time. She forcibly controlled her emotions and spoke,

"How did you kill this high tier beast?" Duan Ke asked, trying to covertly justify the reason for her expression.

If Lin Mu was first confused because of Duan Ke's expression, now he was confused due to her words.

"What do you mean high tier beast?" questioned Lin Mu.

"This beast, it's a high tier beast of at least 9th stage body tempering realm." Replied Duan Ke.

Lin Mu's expression slowly changed from confusion to that of fear, once the words of Duan Ke sank in. He had avoided hunting a high tier beast, the Razor-maw Ox, which was also equivalent to a 9th stage body tempering realm expert. But somehow had ended up hunting and killing another beast of the same strength.

Lin Mu could not understand how he was able to do this daunting task successfully. He then remembered how the Steel-back wolf's skull was crushed in his one hit, but the coyote beast's didn't. But he still could not understand why the beast did not react when he attacked. If it really was a high-tier beast, it should have detected him the moment he exposed himself.

The only reason he was able to kill the steel-back wolf back then, was because the beast was focused on the mercenaries, along with it being injured and exhausted. There was no way the same tactic would have worked on it, if it was in its optimum condition, not to mention a beast even stronger than it.

Cold sweat covered Lin Mu's forehead and back. Duan Ke could see the dread and fear on Lin Mu's face.

'Don't tell me this boy did not even know the strength of this beast before hunting it.' Thought Duan Ke.

"Did you not know the strength of this beast beforehand?" asked Duan Ke.

Lin Mu, who seemed to have become a mute, finally came to his senses upon hearing Duan Ke's question.

"No, I don't even know the name of the beast." Replied Lin Mu.

Duan Ke just kept on staring at the beast corpse after hearing Lin Mu's reply and did not speak anything. Seeing that she was not replying Lin Mu asked,
