Chapter 310: An Awakened Beast (1/2)
After hearing the next sentence of the disciples though, he realized what they were here for.
'Are they here for the marriage of lieutenant Wu Teng? Then that means… this Yi Ze Jin they talked about that's the fiancee of the mayor's son.' Lin Mu thought.
Lin Mu would have used his spirit sense to take a closer look at the four disciples but knew that since they were from a cultivation sect, there was no way they would not detect his spirit sense. Thus for the time being Lin Mu just decided to watch using his spirit sense.
As Lin Mu could not use his spirit sense, it also meant that he would not be able to tell the cultivation bases of the four disciples, not to mention that he was too far to be able to detect the passive fluctuations of their spirit qi.
”Eldest brother, I still do not understand why we have to find a gift here in the forest? I mean, can't we just get something from the sect by exchanging some resources. I reckon there would be better items in the sect than this place.” Spoke the Junior brother.
”You idiot, do you really think sister Yi Ze Jin even needs our gifts? With Elder Yi Deng being her father, there isn't anything she's lacking. We are here to find something unique for her as a marriage gift. Even if it's not that precious, it will be fine, it's the effort that we went through that she values.” The disciple called as the eldest brother explained.
”Oh! I see now.” The junior brother replied.
Suddenly the Senior brother yelled for the three of them.
”Look, someone dug out something from here! The bangle is pointing towards this place too.” Spoke the Senior brother.
The three of them then gathered around the hole that had been dug from where Lin Mu had excavated the skeleton of that deceased nascent soul realm cultivator.
The four of them had not seen it as it was behind the tree, not to mention that the grass had grown over the hole as well, hiding it nearly completely.
”Hmm, there was definitely something buried here. There are fluctuations of spirit qi here, but what?” Spoke the eldest brother.
”Junior elder Fa Shiu, you are the strongest here please can you tell me what was here?” Spoke Senior brother.
”An elder? That to here… Hmm, this doesn't seem good to me.” Lin Mu muttered himself.
The man who was called Junior elder removed his hood and closed his eyes. Lin Mu was finally able to see that the man had dark brown hair that was tied up in a bun, as a lot of cultivators did. He saw him close his eyes for about thirty seconds before opening them.
”Looks like we missed out on something good here. There were definitely some spirit stones buried here and from the faint traces of spirit qi that have been left behind it seems like they were mid grade spirit stones at the very least.” Junior Elder Fa Shiu spoke.
~Sigh~
