Walker Of The Worlds

Even while cultivating Lin Mu could only focus on it because he was chanting the severing heart sutra, which was suppressing his thoughts and emotions. Perhaps without it, he would have never had the will to cultivate and would have only kept on thinking about senior Xukong's words.

The morning soon came and the team of twenty people began their journey back to the camp. Their journey this time was rather uneventful, and the only difference that they observed was that the number of beasts in the area had increased again.

'Hmm, seems like the effect of the great slumber beast's roar has finally worn off. At least we won't have to unnecessarily fight the beasts when we get closer to camp.' Lin Mu thought to himself during the journey.

Ten hours later they had reached the camp and were greeted by the rest of their companions. Looking at them, Lin Mu could tell that everything was normal while they were gone and nothing untoward had happened. It was evening now and all of them decided that they would be returning to the Northern town tomorrow morning.

The people who had stayed back at the camp wanted to know what they had found out at the culprits' cave, but Hei Bao had suggested that they wait till reaching the town before informing the rest. He didn't want them to lose their morale or worse, become agitated.

They could not afford to make any mistakes now, and the situation had become even more serious. While the members of the Hei Corps were fine with this decision and were willing to obey the orders, it was not the same for the mercenaries.

It took the combined effort of Teng Xiaolian and his team in order to placate the mercenaries. Even Teng Xiaolian was in agreement with Hei Bao and knew that it could be devastating for the mercenaries to hear that their comrades were being sacrificed for their blood.

During the night, Lin Mu and Hei Bao went to check up on Hei Yingjie's condition but did not find much difference. He was still unconscious and when Lin Mu observed him using his spirit sense, he could see that his internal injuries were the same as well.

"It's as if his recovery has halted." Lin Mu spoke.
