Everyone that was standing there could feel goosebumps on their skin upon hearing the account from Zhou Ye. They had never expected that something so bad could have happened. The entire story was full of ups and downs, which kept them on their toes.

By now, Zhou Ye's face was pale and fear had appeared on it. One could tell that even recalling the event was stressful for him. At this point, he had frozen and could no longer speak. The others noticed his condition and knew that he had been pushed too much, perhaps.

"Should we stop here for now?" Hao Xiao whispered to Teng Xiaolian.

Teng Xiaolian furrowed his brows in response and looked at Zhou Ye.

"We need to get this done with, there's too much that's hanging by a thin thread. If we don't get the information now, we may be too late." Teng Xiaolian spoke.

Hong Luo too clenched his fist and looked between the terrified man and Teng Xiaolian.

"But Leader Teng, maybe we…" Hong Luo was just about to speak when he was suddenly interrupted.

Everyone's expression turned to that of a surprise from the tense one. They were suddenly feeling a wave of calmness spreading throughout their body. They then also heard the faint sounds that were coming from next to them.

Everyone turned their gazes to the source of it and saw Lin Mu standing there with his eyes closed. He had an extremely tranquil expression on his face, which invoked a feeling of calmness in whoever that saw it. His lips were gently moving and faint chants were coming out of his mouth.

Teng Xiaolian's' expression was then pulled towards Zhou Ye. The man who had been scared frozen from his thoughts had suddenly changed. The fear from his face had faded away and what replaced it was peace. His arms and shoulders which had been tensed because of being clenched had relaxed.

Even his eyes which had gone dull due to the terror had regained their vigor. The breathing which was irregular and labored had harmonized and moved in a steady rhythm.

Indeed, what Lin Mu was doing was nothing but chanting the calming heart sutra. He had long since reached the second stage of external comprehension, thus knew that he could use it on other people now. The current situation seemed the best for it to be used, and it also helped Zhou Ye heal on a mental level.
