Chapter 989 - Little Shrubbys Important Task. Wu Hei And Wu Tengs Situations (1/2)

Hearing that the task was important and only Little Shrubby could do it, Lin Mu was intrigued.

'Well, Little Shrubby does have a lot of advantages that others don't.' Lin Mu thought to himself before Jing Luo started to speak.

”Little Shrubby is at the frontier, spying for us. He's a beast, so no one will suspect him even if he gets spotted, and he can just mix in with the other beasts that live there anyway. Atmost, the people of the Northern Tribes will think that he is a Dao Shell realm beast that has made that area his territory.” Jing Luo spoke.

Lin Mu could only nod hearing this, as it was a very appropriate option.

”And in addition to that, he will also be picking off any Northern Tribesmen he spots or any Gu Legion people. With his speed and abilities, it is something that is best suited to him. At the very least, he has no problems in killing Nascent soul realm cultivators in less than a second and the Dao Shell realms can be battled by him.” Jing Luo added.

”What about the rescues that Little Shrubby had been doing? I heard from Elder Zhan of the black Dune sect.” Lin Mu asked.

”While that was indeed good. Having him block off the enemies at the very entry is an even better option. We don't even know how many threats he has also stopped from entering from the frontier.” Jing Luo replied. ”The only foe that is left in the empire is Gu Yao.”

Lin Mu thought over it and realized that unless it was a Dao Treading realm cultivator that actually appeared, there was little to no chance Little Shrubby would be in trouble. He could always run away with his speed.

From Lin Mu's estimation of Little Shrubby's speed growth, at his current cultivation base outrunning a Dao Treading realm cultivator would be easy.

'And this is still when he hasn't used the Seven Beasts Burst skill. If he does that, his strength will increase even more and so will his speed. He might be able to fight off a Dao Treading realm cultivator long enough to injure or run away.' Lin Mu thought to himself.

While it wasn't so that Little Shrubby couldn't be trapped at all, to do that, the Northern Tribes will need information about Little Shrubby. At the very least, they would need to know he even existed.

”Seems like Little Shrubby has been doing a lot of work then.” Lin Mu muttered.

”He has indeed. With you gone, he was great help.” Jing Luo agreed.

~Sigh~

Lin Mu sighed to himself, finding himself missing the beast.

”Well, not anymore. I'll do what I've been skipping out on.” Lin Mu stated.

”Good!” Jing Luo clapped his hands. ”So what is it that you want to do first?” he questioned.

”Well, we've had a few things we've been delaying for a while. We should get them done. And some of those things can be done in one direction.” Lin Mu answered.

”I'm guessing meeting up with Wu Hei?” Jing Luo asked.
