"Where is your commanding captain?" Lin Mu questioned right away.

"What business do you have with the commander?" the guards asked.

"Yeah, without an appointment, no one can enter." The other guard said.

Lin Mu looked at the two guards with a calm expression.

'They're certainly nervous… but what might be the reason behind it?' Lin Mu wondered before he spread his spirit sense.

It quickly scanned the tent behind them and revealed all that was hidden in it.

"Oh, so your commanding captain is not here at all." Lin Mu said.

"H-how do you know that?!" the guards were stunned.

"Why don't you tell me where your commanding captain went and why is the camp half empty?" Lin Mu questioned.

"W-we have no obligation to do that." The guards said.

"Oh, but you do. I'm here under the authority of minister Wu, and if you do not comply sufficient punishment shall be dealt." Lin Mu replied.

He didn't want to use force with these guards, who weren't even cultivators and were simply doing their duty.

'They are afraid of something, that's for sure.' Lin Mu thought to himself.

Lin Mu even took out the command token and showed it to the guards, startling them.
