Walker Of The Worlds

Jingming Shang couldn't help but look at Lin Mu, who was so young and had reached a cultivation base that was far superior to him that to in less than five years. To him, this was nothing less than miraculous.

"It should be safe now, we can talk." Jingming Shang said.

"So who is this, really?" Jing Luo questioned again.

"Like I said before, this is one of the council members, Jingming Shang. He's also one of the people that old Man Jing Wei and Duan Ke trusted." Lin Mu answered.

Jing Luo raised his brows upon hearing this. He had not expected his grandfather and cousin to trust someone else after all that happened.

"Are you sure? There were many of our friends and so called allies that betrayed us back then." Jing Luo questioned in an apprehensive tone.

"I know…" Lin Mu said in a calm tone. "Jingming Shang owes them though and thus will not betray them… they simply have far too many things that can cause trouble to him." Lin Mu added, making a wry smile appear on Jingming Shang's face.

"That's true. Old man Jing Wei and Duan Ke saved my life many years ago and thus I owe them for that. Even when I helped them, it was mostly equal trades of items and gold, so there wasn't really a way that I was paying for that debt.

At most I was keeping their location a secret, but that didn't really count because as a merchant I do that for a lot of my clients when they need the source of a product hidden. But now… since you are here, I can finally fulfill my debt." Jingming Shang explained.

Jing Luo stayed silent for a minute and gauged the man before finally nodding his head.

"Alright, if grandfather and Duan Ke trust you and Lin Mu approves of it, I'll trust you too." Jing Luo stated.
