Walker Of The Worlds

The guards gulped for a moment before responding.

"He was discovered hiding within the Town Head's bedroom, unconscious. The supervisor has ordered for us to take him to the healers so that he can be checked and treated for any injuries." One of the Guards respectfully spoke.

"You won't be doing that. He doesn't have any injuries." Hei Wan spoke.

The guards felt stressed upon hearing Hei Wan's words. They could not decide whose ordures to listen to the Supervisors or high official Hei Wan's.

"But… But madam, we have been ordered." The second guard spoke after gathering a little bit of courage.

Hei Wan's presence turned grim as she spoke again.

"You dare defy my orders? Just do as I say. I'll question this boy myself later." Hei Wan ordered.

"Yes, Madam." The Guards responded with fear in their voice.

The guards then put Lin Mu down on the side of a wall and guided Hei Wan inside the office. Lin Mu let out a sigh as he propped himself against the wall in a more comfortable manner.

'Seems like it's going according to the plan. Now I just have to wait.' Lin Mu thought.

"But what is Hei Wan's actual identity, such that she's actually able to exert her influence and command the guards." Lin Mu muttered to himself.

Inside the town head's office, Hei Wan was looking at the corpses that were lying on the ground. Although she had already seen them before, seeing them again was nothing less than impactful.

'Lin Mu must've been really enraged to crush the Town Head's skull like that. We need to investigate this in depth.' Hei Wan thought.

"So this is the town head and the Vice captain Han Lei." Hei Wan spoke.

"Yes, madam." The Guard replied.

Hei Wan nodded and gestured for them to continue. The guard then brought her to the bedroom where the supervisor Li Peng and a few more guards were waiting for her. Li Peng looked at the face of Hei Wan that was hidden behind a veil and showed a mild smile.

"Greetings, madam Hei Wan." Li Peng greeted respectfully while cupping his hands.
