Lin Mu walked into an old restaurant that had a faded name board. There were a few villagers sitting around on the tables while chatting amongst themselves.

"What would you like?" A tanned middle aged woman walked asked Lin Mu.

"Ah, I'd like some breakfast. Whatever you have." Lin Mu replied.

"I'll send some right over, you can take a seat with the others. We don't have private seats left now." The woman replied.

"Sure, that won't be a problem." Lin Mu said before sitting at a table that already had six people sitting on it.

It was evident that due to being the only restaurant, it was popular and the people who were too busy to cook would come here to have their meal. Things like these were common in villages where a majority of the population consisted of farmers.

They would need to work on the farm most of the time thus often wouldn't have time to cook. Those that had families wouldn't have to do the same as their wives would cook for them.

Lin Mu glanced at the appearance of the six men and found them to be relatively common looking.

"What's the current news around the region, brothers?" Lin Mu questioned.

The men stopped talking and looked at the newcomer.

"It's the same mostly, but after the incident two years ago things have become a bit volatile. The northern tribes have become active again and the perpetrator of the incident is still at large." One of the men spoke with a sigh.

"Oh? I see. I saw the poster at the square while coming here, is he the perpetrator?" Lin Mu asked.

"Yes. That is the person who has made the lives of us commoners difficult. We now need to pay higher taxes as the army has been deployed."

"Aren't the cultivation sects doing anything? I mean, isn't it their duty as well to stop the Northern Tribes?" Lin Mu replied.
