Chapter 897 - Onwards To The Long Cloud Sect (1/2)

”Patriarch Hua certainly played his cards right.” Jing Luo spoke.

”Indeed. It was the right decision to let him handle that.” Lin Mu replied.

Jing Luo and Lin Mu were sitting in his courtyard currently. The meeting with the three elders of the Long Cloud sect had ended six hours ago, and they were now preparing to leave for the sect.

”Never thought I would have to make up an act like this today.” Lin Mu said, finding it all a bit embarrassing.

”If anything, you were good. Thankfully, Patriarch Hua had already informed us of the negative inclination of the elders beforehand. Being a little strong handed was necessary.” Jing Luo replied with a chuckle.

”But what Senior Lin Mu said was not false either. If anything, that was the greatest truth.” A third person said.

This was none other than Elder Liqiang, who was helping Jing Luo in making the components for the teleportation gate. While most of them were already prepared, there were still some minor adjustments and finishing touches to be done.

”Hmm… perhaps. Still, this is not the end. We still have to meet the actual elders of the Long Cloud sect and perhaps even their patriarch before we can come to a final decision. Hopefully everything goes well and we can start the next step.” Lin Mu spoke.

”Yeah… I'm ready on my end with the entrance token as well.” Jing Luo stated.

”Oh? You finally finished it?” Lin Mu said with surprise.

”Yes, I did it yesterday. Now we can head to the ancestral grounds at anytime and meet with grandfather.” Jing Luo said in a slightly emotional tone.

It had been over fifty years since he had seen him and he had been yearning for his family now.

”You will be going to meet Ancestor Jing Wei?” Elder Liqiang said with surprise.

”Yes we will.” Lin Mu replied.

”I've heard stories of him before, though I've never met him myself. But he is a great expert.” Elder Liqiang said with veneration on his face.

”Once we get in contact with him, you will be able to meet him too if you want to.” Jing Luo replied.

”Really?” Elder Liqiang asked.

As a formation master himself, he had heard a lot about Jing Wei and his skills. Even if his specialty was in weapon forgoing, the man was a formation grandmaster too. Only if one was well versed in formations, would they be able to make strong spirit weapons and tools.

”We'll definitely go there. Plus, with the teleportation gates we will be able to make travel very efficient. It won't make it hard for us to travel between the different locations.” Lin Mu added.

”Then I'll look forward to that day.” Elder Liqiang spoke with faith in his voice.

Lin Mu nodded his head while Jing Luo continued to work on the components. They spent the rest of the day getting everything ready and finally night arrived.

Elder Liqiang felt the communication jade slip on his waist hum and he held it for a moment.

”They are ready now,” Elder Liqiang spoke.

”Time to leave then…” Lin Mu said as he stood up and sent a message to Little Shrubby.

”Let's go, no use in tarrying.” Jing Luo said.

The three of them left the courtyard and made their way to the main hall of the sect. In less than two minutes, they were inside where everyone was waiting for them.
