Lin Mu looked at the two corpses that were now lying on the ground. He had not expected that Wu Hei would kill them without a bit of hesitation.

"Are you sure this was a good idea?" Lin Mu questioned, "I mean what if they were innocent?" he added.

"No, there is no chance they were innocent." Wu Hei shook his head. "If such a thing is present under the manor, then there is no chance that the Mayor would assign any common guards here. They are definitely his spies." He explained.

"Alright, if you say so." Lin Mu said before touching the two dead guards and storing them in his ring.

Wu Hei raised his brows at this, feeling confused.

"Just a precaution…" Lin Mu said with a shrug.

Wu Hei nodded, and the two of them reached the well. Wu Hei scanned it with his spirit sense and saw the water that was flowing deep below.

"Do you need help in getting down? The underground river is rather dangerous." Wu Hei asked.

"No need…" Lin Mu said before withdrawing his short sword and jumping on it.

He floated to the well and hovered above it. Wu Hei just kept on watching a bit surprised at how effortlessly Lin Mu flew like that.

"What are you waiting for? Let's go," Lin Mu stated.

Wu Hei took out a spirit sword as well and flew down the well along with Lin Mu. It was dark here but Lin Mu simply raised his hand and a flame started burning on it. He lit a torch with it and passed it to Wu Hei.

"We will need to blow out the torches when we get near the sludge pool though, don't need another explosion." Lin Mu informed.
