Lin Mu had not expected for Immortal Juo to approach him, not to mention question him.

But now that he had, Lin Mu didn't think there was any reason to be afraid. At the very least, he knew he had done nothing wrong.

"Why should you?" Immortal Juo repeated Lin Mu's words. "You have strength, don't you?" he asked.

"How can you be so sure?" Lin Mu replied.

"I've lived long enough to know who's strong and who's not. And I'm not so naïve as to simply equate strength to one's cultivation base." Immortal Juo spoke in his deep and heavy voice. "You should have decent enough strength to interfere, shouldn't you?" he asked again.

"So what if I do? Why should I interfere?" Lin Mu retorted.

"Do you not have ideals? Do you not think, you should strive for justice? Do you not think, the wronged should be helped, and the oppressors punished?" Immortal Juo questioned.

"Hmm…" Lin Mu thought over the questions, finding them to be something he would actually consider.

But after a few seconds of thinking, he had his answer ready.

"I do have ideals… but I do not wish to be embroiled in something that does not concern me." Lin Mu stated.
