Chapter 297: Lin Mus Condition (1/2)
Hei Wen soon collected her wits and composed herself. She immediately thought of the possibilities that arose from Lin Mu's question. Even if he had asked for beast meat, it still depended on the type that he would ask for.
For example, if Lin Mu asked for just normal beast meat, then it was no problem even if he asked for ten years' worth of it, not to mention just a year. But if it was something like nascent soul realm beast meant, then it would be a problem coming up with even a single beast.
”Umm, what kind of beast meat do you want though?” Hei Wen asked.
”Optimally I would like spirit beast meat, but if it is just normal beasts that would work too. But the quantity would need to be increased. I would need four normal beasts in the equivalent of a single spirit beast's meat.” Lin Mu answered.
~Phew~
Hei Wen got relieved after hearing this. They should be able to get plenty of spirit beast meat even if it would not be a year's worth. They could compensate the reaming with the normal beast meat, anyway.
”That is acceptable, I'll inform the lord.” Hei Wen replied.
”Though… why do you need so much meat?” Hei Wen curiously asked.
”I'll be going in seclusion for about a year… away from here. So I just want to be prepared.” Lin Mu answered.
He had already discussed this with Senior Xukong in his mind, thus knew what to say if he was asked this.
”A year of seclusion? When?” Hei Wen asked, feeling a bit worried.
She was worried about the timing of Lin Mu's seclusion because if it came at the item of the event it would not work out for them.
”Oh, you don't have to worry about it, I'll only do it after the event is done. I need to do quite a bit of a preparation before that, anyway.” Lin Mu answered.
”That's all good then. We should be able to procure the meat relatively fast. I'll get the reply from Lord by the end of this week and then inform you. Oh, and the event may be in this month anytime depending on how well their negotiations go.” Hei Wen replied.
Lin Mu nodded in response and was about to leave the room when he suddenly realized something. He halted in the doorway while holding onto the door handle and spoke.
”By the way, who is lieutenant Wu Teng getting married to anyway?” Lin Mu questioned.
”Oh, the bride-to-be is the daughter of one of the elders of the Tri cauldron peony sect.” Hei Wen answered.
”I see… well, goodbye then.” Lin Mu replied before leaving the office.
He quickly left the town center and headed back to the courtyard. Even on the way back, he couldn't see many people and the streets were still relatively empty. To him, it seemed like the people had already headed to the southern town.
