Walker Of The Worlds

Lin Mu read the scroll and furrowed his brows.

"They caught over ten members of the Hei corps of the sixteen that they had detected were in the kingdom. The remaining six are still missing and have been put at a high level of importance.

The ones that were caught were then sent to the empire itself, as was requested of them according to the orders." Lin Mu muttered after reading the entire scroll.

He knew that it wasn't fully the Hong Lin kingdom's fault either in catching and sending the members of the Hei corps off. From all that he knew, the kingdoms needed to follow the orders of the empire, especially for highly wanted criminals like this.

Plus, it was not like they would listen if the members of the Hei corps protested. They were simply doing what they were asked to and anyone else would do the same if they didn't know that the sects and empires were being manipulated, no less.

~Sigh~

"This doesn't help us much. There is no more information about the six members that managed to escape either." Lin Mu said while shaking his head.

Comparing the dates, Lin Mu was sure that it would be close to impossible if he wanted to find the members of the Hei corps here. The outpost that was located in the Hong Lin kingdom could be said to be as good as gone now.

'Perhaps they have left the kingdom a long time ago as well…' Lin Mu thought.

With these thoughts in his mind, Lin Mu didn't know if completing their mission here was even possible anymore.

"Things won't always go according to your plans. This is one of the very important things you need to learn. Fate is a fickle mistress and often likes to play without much rhyme or reason." Xukong said in a sagely tone.

"I understand senior." Lin Mu replied.
