Chapter 397: A Team Is Formed (1/2)

Perhaps in the entire crowd, only Wu Hei was the one who had expected something like this and was not shocked that the supreme leader showed his interest in taking Lin Mu as his disciple.

'Perhaps even that boy has no idea what kind of master he has. He hasn't experienced the life in a sect and neither has he seen the true circles of the high society. If he had, then I can't imagine what kind of a monster he would be right now.' Wu Hei thought to himself.

”I am flattered supreme elder, but perhaps we should talk about this at a later time.” Lin Mu said in a humble tone.

”Ah yes, the situation is more important right now. Well then, can you show us what you meant?” The supreme elder replied.

”Of course, but I believe we should make a plan first.” Lin Mu said before turning his head. Lord Wu Hei, would you please explain to them?” He asked.

”Sure,” Wu Hei said, ”Would the supreme elder mind if we get some privacy?” he added.

The supreme elder didn't even respond before waving his hand and instantly setting up an isolating formation. One could tell from this how proficient he must be at formations and also his experience in them. The people that were meant to hear the plan were only the Tri cauldron peony sect disciples, the Wu family, Qing Yuan Tiu and Lin Mu.

Wu Hei nodded his head in approbate before speaking. Finally, after fifteen minutes a plan was made such that only the stronger people that were willing would be going to the tunnels beneath. The candidates that were chosen were Quan Hong, Fa Lao, Qing Yuan Tiu, Wu Hei, Wu Teng, Lin Mu, and the two elders of the Tri cauldron peony sect.

They reckoned that this many people would be better to stay on the side of caution. They did not want to take too many weak people and risk them succumbing to danger if it so occurred. While the elders may be able to protect them in the face of open danger, it was not the same here.

If the culprit could take a core condensation realm cultivator right from under their noses, then they would be sitting ducks even with the elders there. Thus even the weaker cultivators like Quan Hong and Lin Mu were asked twice if they really wanted to come, as they only wanted core condensation realm cultivators at the minimum.

But Lin Mu insisted, and thus they allowed him to come. As for Wu Hei, he was the one that was going to guide them and thus there wasn't much they could do there.

”Well then, now that we have this done, let's go ahead.” Wu Hei said.

”Yes, we should be as quick as possible.” The supreme elder agreed.

”I can't wait to get my hands on those pieces of trash, I want to stare them in their eyes as I break their necks.” Wu Teng said with rage in his eyes.
