Hei Yingjie took a deep breath and forcefully calmed down his expression. He then turned to look at Lin Mu, who had just opened the last box of weapons, and then back to Hei Wan.

"We should talk later, it is not the appropriate time. Just know this that we may have to alter our plans again, so be ready for it." Hei Yingjie replied.

Hei Wan didn't speak anything, but just simply nodded in response. She trusted her lieutenant's judgment and was willing to wait for his explanation. It was at this moment that Lin Mu finished putting the last weapon in his ring.

A satisfied and expression appeared on Lin Mu's face as he reveled in the fact that he could now continue his practice. He walked to Hei Wan and Hei Yingjie to discuss the plan with them. He was wondering what they had decided and wanted to see their approach.

"What do we do next?" Lin Mu questioned.

Hei Yingjie glanced at Hei Wan for a moment, which she understood and let him speak.

"I had originally thought that we would be going someplace else to get brother Lin Mu's reward, but now that it is already here, it's no longer necessary. The other members of the Hei corps have already been briefed, so we only have a few minor adjustments to make.

Brother Lin Mu, you can head back to your house for now, it will take us some time to prepare everyone for the mission. Some people will be staying here to make sure that the culprits do not do anything in the town. While the others including me will be traveling to the Northern forest to continue our investigations there." Hei Yingjie explained.

"So you don't need me right now?" Lin Mu confirmed one more time.

"No, you can head on and prepare yourself as well. You can get familiar with the new weapons till then." Hei Wan suggested.

Lin Mu's eyes lit up, as he understood that they were just giving him time to prepare himself.

"Ah well, thank you. I'll head off then." Lin Mu replied.

He then left the room and returned to the front room of the safe house. This time, the people there all suddenly stood up in ceremony and greeted him.

"Greetings senior, Lin Mu." They all spoke in unison.
