Walker Of The Worlds

Nobody had expected that the relatively mild mannered Lin Mu would have some fierce words to say today.

Every one other than Jing Luo had the same surprised expression. Jing Luo on the other hand, had a straight expression, as if he was fine with it all.

"Truer words have never been spoken." Jing Luo chimed in.

"What is the meaning of this disrespect!" Elder Wenyan said in an elevated voice.

"Patriarch Hua, is this the thing you brought us here for?" Elder Peizhi said in an antagonistic tone.

"See… this is exactly what I'm talking about." Lin Mu said out loud. "The sects think only they are right, and everyone else is wrong!"

"What do you know? Our Long Cloud sect has rich history and has been a prominent power for thousands of years. Even if you might have some background, it cannot be compared to our sect, or the other top ten sects for that matter." Elder Peizhi stated.

"Humph, what background! Elder Peizhi you are too genial." Elder Boqin said and pointed to the open scroll.

"We know very well what kind of a background he has. See this, his parents are nothing. A mortal father that was barely at the Seventh stage of the body tempering realm and an orphan mother that doesn't even have a family name.

This is the lowest of low. You have no standing other than some random master you have." Elder Boqin said crudely.

Some of the elders felt like Hua Langya was being a bit more fearful that he should have been, which made them confused. But Elder Pigu knew exactly why and had the same expression.

"ENOUGH!" Patriarch Hua thundered.

He then looked at Lin Mu in an apologetic manner before speaking, "seems like I failed you this time, junior Lin Mu. We were clearly not prepared for this."

Lin Mu, wanting to know what his response would be, but only saw a
