Walker Of The Worlds

The time for Lin Mu's fight with Yao Changying approached, but the audience was still continually talking about the previous battle.

To them, the fight between Childe Wildfire and Feng Baxing was possibly the most exciting fight in the tournament so far. So much so that they didn't take much interest in Lin Mu's fight.

It was somewhat understandable too, as they simply thought that the winner was already decided. Only a few in the audience even thought that Lin Mu might even give Yao Changying a proper fight. To the majority, the match was predictable and Yao Changying would be the inevitable winner.

In fact, there were people betting on how long it would take for Yao Changying to defeat Lin Mu instead of who would be winning.

Luo Liqin saw this and spent no time in taking advantage of the bets. He quickly placed a significant amount of fortune on Lin Mu's win while waiting for the fight to start.

~humm~

The token in Lin Mu's waist hummed again as a reminder, waking him up.

"Time for me to head out." Lin Mu said as he stood up.

His expression was calm, and it didn't seem like he was bothered about the fight at all. This inspired confidence in the minds of his companions, who all spoke up.

"Good luck brother Mu Lin!"

"You are bound to win this fight."

"We'll be waiting for you eagerly!"

"Mmhmm, I'll see you guys in a bit." Lin Mu said before taking his leave.

But as he was walking down the stairs, he saw a familiar woman.

"Daoist Mu Lin has come rather far. I can't help but feel pleased." The elegantly dressed woman spoke.

"Countess… I hope that you'll continue to like my performance." Lin Mu replied as a courtesy.

"Of course. I hope that you win all the way to the end." The Countess laughed. "And if you win in the end, I'll even throw you a large banquet, haha!"

"I'll look forward to it. But for now, I have to take my leave." Lin Mu replied.

"Go on, show that woman tricks can only bring one so far." The Countess smiled before leaving.

Lin Mu went down and got a few more looks from the staff of the restaurant, but they were a bit more reserved this time. No one talked to him or tried to stop him the rest of the way, and Lin Mu quickly reached the tournament grounds.

"Oh? She's already waiting." Lin Mu hadn't expected for Yao Changying to have been there beforehand.

The woman had her eyes closed and stood with a still expression. Her hand was still resting on the handle of her sword though, and Lin Mu could sense a faint aura of sharpness around her.
