Chapter 698: The Two Disciples Leave The City (1/2)

Having heard Lin Mu's words, Jing Luo nodded his head. Talking directly with the two disciples of the Noon Grass sect might not really be good.

”Hmm… how do we go about this?” Jing Luo muttered as he started to think.

Lin Mu did the same and the two of them discussed several points on how they could be made to work. A few minutes passed like this when Lin Mu suddenly sensed something. He had his spirit sense spread around almost always and suddenly felt a few familiar people.

”Oh? Speak of the devils…” Lin Mu said.

”What happened?” Jing Luo questioned.

”The two disciples, they are nearby.” Lin Mu answered.

”Hmm… let's take a look. Perhaps we'll get to know something that might help us in figuring this out.” Jing Luo suggested.

”Alright,” Lin Mu said and flew out of the courtyard.

The two of them made their way towards the two disciples who were heading towards one of the exits of the city. The Hong Lin city had multiple exits, both large main ones, and smaller unofficial ones.

The two disciples were using one of the smaller ones which went from the neighborhood where Lin Mu and Jing Luo had gotten into the courtyard. They had picked this neighborhood for its relative remoteness and fewer people and it seemed like the two disciples were taking this route for that very same reason.

Thankfully, the two disciples were not using their spirit sense or they would have detected Lin Mu rather quickly. It was evident that they were following the aim of staying low-key to the maximum such that they didn't want to accidentally alert someone else with their spirit sense.

While they could, of course sense someone else's spirit sense if it came near them, Lin Mu's spirit sense was far more refined than most people such that they couldn't even detect it. It was the same with his cultivation base which could not be perceived unless he displayed it himself.

Jing Luo on the other hand, didn't use his spirit sense and also used a spirit tool to hide his spirit Qi fluctuations. Since the presence of any Nascent soul realm cultivator could be met with interest and even suspicion, it was best for them to hide it.

Lin Mu and Jing Luo watched as the two disciples left the city and went in the northern direction after changing their path.

”Oh?” Lin Mu recognized where they were going.

”They're going to the place where we rested at first.” Jing Luo also identified.

”Hmm… perhaps they are investigating us as well.” Lin Mu spoke while furrowing his brows.

After a few minutes, the two disciples came to a stop at the hill where Lin Mu and Jing Luo had paused.

”Just as we thought… you wait here, I'll see what they are talking about from underground.” Lin Mu said before he sank into the ground using Phase.

Jing Luo looked at the disappearing Lin Mu and muttered to himself, ”I can never get used to seeing that…”

Lin Mu quickly approached the two disciples and hid within one of the trees behind them. This distance was enough for Lin Mu to hear what they were talking about clearly.
