Chapter 682: Entering The Hong Lin Royal Palace (1/2)

Once the head of the department was done with his work, he picked up the long register and put it in a safe before locking it. He also locked his office before he left the building.

”Finally…” Lin Mu said with relief.

He simply put his hand through the walls of the safe and touched the register, storing it into his ring before taking a look. After about five minutes of spirit sense assisted search, Lin Mu finally found the two entries he was looking for.

”Huh… both of the orders in regards to me and the Hei corpse were issued about six months ago. That would be just two months after the last sighting of the Hei corps…” Lin Mu read.

He didn't know what to make of this as it gave little context and Lin Mu understood that if he wanted to find out more, he will need to go to the royal palace itself.

~Sigh~

”Why can't all this be more simple?…” Lin Mu shook his head.

He then left the law enforcement building and made his way to the main palace. He was in the second ring and needed to cross the third ring to enter the final ring in which the actual royal place was built.

While going through the third ring, Lin Mu even saw the ministry of law there. He wondered if he should go and check up on the Minister of law Fu Delun but then decided to do it later if the need arose.

For now, it would be much easier for him if he just found the intended records in the royal palace.

”So this is the royal place, huh… it does have a rather different design than the one in the Shuang Qian kingdom's capital.” Lin Mu muttered to himself.

Unlike other palaces, the place of the Hong Lin Kingdom was a single circular building that towered around two hundred meters. Lin Mu could feel that the palace was not only extended above the ground but also below it.

Once he got past the formation arrays, it became easy for Lin Mu to take a look around. He spread his spirit sense around and checked for all the people that were in the place. Most of them were commoners with no cultivation base, but around thirty percent were those with cultivation.

This included the guards that protected the place and the royal family, along with the royal family itself. After a bit of looking around, Lin Mu even found the king of the Hong Lin kingdom.

Lin Mu checked his cultivation base and found him to be at the peak stage of the core condensation realm. Though he could also tell that the man was actually a bit ahead of that, possibly being at the Pseudo Nascent soul realm.

”He might actually have a heavenly tribulation later.” Lin Mu muttered to himself and squinted his eyes while using spatial perception.

”Oh? There are actually spatial disturbances around him. His heavenly tribulation is not far… another month perhaps.” Lin Mu estimated.
