Lin Mu was just about to restart the process of refinement when he stopped in his tracks.

"Someone's outside." Lin Mu sensed a presence.

"Indeed… Looks like you have someone calling for you." Xukong could also sense it.

"Hmm, it is the last day so perhaps they've probably called me to discuss something." Lin Mu guessed. "Though there's also a chance that we've reached the islands already. Reaching a day early is still possible." He reckoned.

It was a reasonable thing, as the Crown Prince probably wanted to get things revised for their group. After all, the expedition was not a simple thing and involved a lot of unseen dangers. It was best that they were all prepared to take on all the obstacles that came in their path.

"No, not yet." Daoist Chu shook his head. "There's something else." He added, his tone a bit strange.

"Huh?" Lin Mu could sense something was wrong.

"It's best you come up. The Crown Prince will be explaining it for all ten of us." Daoist Chu spoke, knowing what Lin Mu was thinking.
