After hearing all about the expedition from Crown Prince Feng Shun, Lin Mu recalled someone else telling him something similar.

"Hang on a second." Lin Mu paused. "By any chance… is there someone called Qiao De involved in this?" he questioned.

He didn't know if it was really the same person, as it would be a minute chance. But it also didn't seem like there would be more than a single expedition like this for a Celestial's plane.

"H-how… do you know that?" Crown Prince Feng Shun was truly shocked this time.

As far as they knew, this expedition was kept secret and only a handful of chosen people knew about it. Qiao De was the one who wanted it to be discreet and as such, he hadn't revealed his name to anyone other than the ones that were already part of the expedition.

While they had already decided to add Lin Mu to the team, the implications of him knowing about Qiao De already were concerning to them for sure, but they still couldn't figure out how he actually knew this.

"Qiao De is the manager of the Black Candle Pavilion, isn't he?" Lin Mu responded. "I've met him before… and he just so happens to have talked about the same thing. Though slightly differently. He mentioned that this Spatial Plane was actually a treasure of a Celestial rather than an independent plane." He explained.

"That punk… he actually kept that from us too." Crown Princess Shang scowled.

Even the Crown Prince seemed to be showing concern on his face openly, while his brows furrowed.

Lin Mu didn't speak and let them digest this information first.

'Did I put doubt in their plans?' Lin Mu wondered if it was like that.

"Crown Prince, perhaps we should re-discuss this matter with Qiao De first." Commander Dui suggested. "While his words have been different, the baseline of the mission seems to be the same. Then there is also the matter of how he met Daoist Mu Lin." Being a man of the military, the man was used to making informed decisions and as such suggested a more stable approach.
