Walker Of The Worlds

Lin Mu and Wu Hei discussed a few more things before Lin Mu decided it was enough. He had a few more things he needed to get done before the tournament, and he wanted to get to them as fast as possible. He didn't know when Junior elder Fa Shiu would turn up and thus wanted to be ready for any moment.

At the end, Wu Hei called a few servants and asked them to bring a few things. He then gave Lin Mu some things like a key, and a writ of authority among some other minor things. The key belonged to the courtyard that had been set up for Lin Mu's stay. It was also in the eastern district and was a little distance from the Wu Hei's mansion.

Lin Mu thanked Wu Hei before leaving the small pavilion. He walked out of the gates of the compound and headed towards the courtyard that was prepared for him. It was not near the lake, but was still of a quite good quality. It had four individual smaller courtyards in it, and the entire place was for Lin Mu to use.

"Seems like this Wu Hei did not leave any chance for a complaint huh," Xukong spoke.

"I guess so." Lin Mu muttered as he walked into the courtyard.

"Greetings master, Lin Mu." A man suddenly appeared out of the corner.

Lin Mu had already scanned the entire area with his spirit sense and thus knew that this was the servant that took care of the courtyard. He had been assigned to take care of Lin Mu's needs while he lived here.

"Does master need help with his luggage or anything? Should I prepare a bath or would master like to eat first?" The servant asked.

"No need. I'll be looking around the city for a while. I just came to check in." Lin Mu replied.

"As the master wishes." The servant responded.

Lin Mu waved his hand and sent the servant away while he took a closer look at the courtyard. It was much bigger than his own and was also much more luxurious. Lin Mu could guess that renting a place like this probably cost a lot, but it didn't matter to him as long as he was not the one that was paying the price.

Having had enough of the courtyard, he left the courtyard and headed towards the location that he wanted to go to the most, the ancestral temple.

Lin Mu walked through the crowded streets and took in the sights of the city. There were a lot more cultivators in the Wu Lim city compared to the northern town. Even though there were a lot more cultivators in the Northern town due to the presence of the Hei corps, they were not the actual residents.

Until last year there were only five cultivators in total that lived in the Northern town, but now of those five three of them were dead. Two killed by Lin Mu's own hands. Being reminded of the doings of the former town head only made Lin Mu irritated, and he stopped thinking of that.

Lin Mu was seeing the cultivation bases of the cultivators that passed by and found every one of them to be at the qi refining realm. A majority of them were at the Early stage with a few rare ones being at the mid stage and a couple even at the late stage.

This let Lin Mu know how rare the cultivators truly were. Even in a big city like this, there weren't any at the core condensation realm walking around. Though Lin Mu guessed that this should change soon, once the Powers that have been invited for the marriage ceremony turn up.

The ones that are close by will be here by tomorrow while the others should reach here in three days at the latest. While walking, Lin Mu came across a large and elaborate building. 

"Alluring Wisteria Pavilion" The board read.

"So this is the place where the lieutenant Wu Teng has been spending his time at." Lin Mu muttered.

"Ahh, would this young lord like to come in? Fear not, we don't bite… Hahaha!" A lasciviously dressed woman spoke.

She was standing at the entrance of the pavilion along with a few other similarly dressed women and saw Lin Mu staring at the building.

"Jung Mi, you already took another customer last time. It's my turn now." Said another woman with pink rouge on her lips.

She came forward and held Lin Mu's arm, pressing it against her bountiful chest.

A blush spread across Lin Mu's face and he became flustered. He didn't know what to do and froze up.

"Ahaha! Seems like the young lord is shy. Don't worry, we'll take good care of you." Spoke the woman who was sticking to Lin Mu.

She then started dragging Lin Mu to the Alluring wisteria pavilion, seeing that Lin Mu did not disagree with her. The other women standing around teased Lin Mu and gave him seductive glances as he was taken past them.

Meanwhile,, Xukong was laughing inside the ring and could not stop seeing the reacting of Lin Mu.

"Ahaha! At least say something Lin Mu. Do you really want to go in? I won't mind, you are getting older and need to experience the matters between men and women." Xukong spoke between chuckles.

Lin Mu was snapped out of his daze after hearing the voice of Senior Xukong. Suddenly he felt as if he heard a familiar woman's voice in his head.

"Remember Lin Mu, women are devious and will try to trick you. Mother will find a good woman for you, so don't you go around falling into their wiles." The Voice spoke.

Lin Mu then saw the stern face of his mother appearing in front of him. This invoked the fear that he had of her. He remembered how she would give him a good beating if he was naughty.

"Uhh!" Lin Mu uttered, but did not know what to say.

"Oh, does Young lord want anything specific? This sister will try her best to fulfill all of your desires." The woman spoke.

Lin Mu turned a shade of red deeper and could not hold out anymore. The woman suddenly found her arm empty and Lin Mu having disappeared from her grasp.

"Huh? Where did the young lord go?"
