Chapter 888 - Speedy Return And A Pleasant Reception (1/2)

Lin Mu and Hua Yi were now on Little Shrubby's back, heading to the Noon Grass sect.

”What was that spirit herb though, senior? Do you know of it?” Hua Yi questioned.

”I thought you would know more,” Lin Mu replied instead.

”Hmm… I don't know. I've never seen or read about it before.” Hua Yi answered.

”We'll take a closer look once we're back at the sect then. It shouldn't take long.” Lin Mu said to which Hua Yi nodded.

But while Lin Mu said this, he still started to check the records on his own. There were plenty in the ring that he had still not read and it was literally a hill of them placed there.

'I should get some shelves perhaps…' Lin Mu thought to himself.

Still, he could use the jade slips with little to no problem and thus just held them while Little Shrubby carried them back. Lin Mu's spirit sense would read through them and he would gain more information.

They traveled for about half a day before they finally reached the sect. The disciples from the sect were quick to detect them, simply due to the fact that there was just one beast they knew that could move that fast.

”They're back!” someone called out.

Jing Luo who was working on some things, heard the commotion as well and looked out of the hall he was in.

”Oh? That was rather fast.” Jing Luo said and left the hall to meet up.

~thud~ thud~

Lin Mu and Hua Yi got off Little Shrubby, and the latter stretched his body. Sitting on a fast moving beast for that long would cause some tenseness in his body even if he was at the Nascent soul realm.

”That will certainly take some time getting used too.” Hua Yi said. ”But still, thank you for this experience, senior Lin Mu. I got to learn quite a few things.” He added.

”And thank you for guiding me. It would have taken me quite a long time if I were to go there on my own.” Lin Mu replied.

~step~step~step~

”Welcome back seniors!” The disciples finally gathered around them.

”Greetings.” Lin Mu causally said.

”I honestly thought that it would take you way longer than this.” Jing Luo appeared from the crowd.

”I did too. But for the first time in a long while, a plan went as I wanted it to.” Lin Mu replied.

”That's good. At least luck in on our side again.” Jing Luo said in a relieved tone.

”And… the harness was helpful, too. I doubt I would be able to reach the location without Hua Yi guiding me and he would not be able to keep up without the new harness. Thus you were a big help in this as well.” Lin Mu didn't forget to praise where it was deserved.
