The beast's ears perked up, as he gazed at the direction of the closed room.

"Is master okay?" Little Shrubby wondered.

He couldn't use his immortal sense to check on Lin Mu, since that could potentially disturb him, but from the link he had with him, Little Shrubby understood that Lin Mu was safe.

~shua~

The air near Little Shrubby flickered and the figure of the Saintess appeared from it.

"Looks like your master is working hard for a breakthrough…" The Saintess's eyes could look through the walls as if they were air.

She saw the scene of Lin Mu sitting cross-legged, while a whirring sound came from his chest.

'Is he cultivating that technique?' The Saintess seemed to have recognized the Three Apertures Invoking Technique. 'Still… to be able to reach this point in just a couple of months… that's impressive.' She thought.

~purr~

Little Shrubby looked at the closed room with a hint of worry on his face. But then a moment later he felt a soft hand on his head.

"It will be fine." The Saintess spoke while stroking his head. "If he can come this far on his own, there is no way he can fail…" she muttered.

Little Shrubby calmed down after the consoling from the Saintess and his ears eased up. The Saintess created another set of furniture and sat down while Little Shrubby jumped up on the table and curled up.

A faint smile appeared under the Saintess's veil, but was quickly hidden away. Her hand moved to stroke the soft fur of Little Shrubby as she continued to monitor the situation of Lin Mu.

Her free hand also moved, making a few gestures in the air.

The entire courtyard was covered with a thin illusory barrier, preventing any unwanted disturbances from reaching them.

'If he does manage to create an Aperture, the events after that will create quite a commotion.' The Saintess didn't want something like this to happen, thus she directly disguised the courtyard in an array.

Her concern would turn out to be accurate as Lin Mu was currently as a crucial point.
