Walker Of The Worlds

Lin Mu looked at the object that the Saintess had taken out, finding it to be rather unique.

It was barely the size of a palm and was disc shaped. But the most iconic characteristic about it was the symbol that was engraved on it. It was that of a serpent biting its own tail. It was made from shimmering green emeralds and emanated a faint aura of power.

In the empty space at the center of the serpent though, another thing was carved. It was a rune of some kind that Lin Mu could not read nor identify.

"What's this Saintess?" Lin Mu asked.

"Take it." The Saintess said instead.

Lin Mu extended his hand and took the disc from the Saintess's hand, all the while feeling confused.

"From this day onwards, I declare you, Lin Mu… The Head of the Scholar Peak. You are now an elder of the Serpent Moon Sect." The Saintess declared, her voice carrying an authority that filled Lin Mu with a strange aura.

The aura permeated into his body, before flowing back out into the disc, forming a link between the two. It was a link that was not perceptible by normal means and couldn't be broken easily either.

"This…" Lin Mu was taken aback by the sudden appointment. "Why Saintess?" he couldn't help but ask.

"It is something you deserve." The Saintess said nonchalantly. "Besides, the Scholar Peak of my sect has been empty for a while. I may as well make use of it to bestow authority upon you." She added.

"But… Making me the head directly? And that too, an elder of the Serpent Moon Sect?" Lin Mu was confused for sure.

Saintess answered. "It will give you legitimacy as well as provide you with background if you need to show it to someone, depending on
