Chapter 985: At The Fenlong Kingdom And Miss Fen’s Strange Actions

Having learned from Lin Mu about the Flame Pool Drakes, King Hong felt his curiosity being satisfied. Though at the same time, he felt a little disappointed that he didn't have a dragon bloodline.

Lin Mu and King Hong returned to the court, where they talked for a couple more hours before he decided to leave.

"I'll head off now. You should keep an eye out for any suspicious things." Lin Mu spoke.

"I will. I'll also get our allies at the Long Cloud sect informed of that humanoid mutant you found." King Hong replied.

Lin Mu had told him about what he had found at the Iron Bull city and the possible implications of it. He had a hunch that there might web way more of such Humanoid mutants in the empire.

But the places they were hidden away would be a very difficult thing to find out. Lin Mu would certainly not be able to do it on his own alone and would need the assistance of the alliance.

Though right now they too were in a difficult situation with the ongoing conflict with the Zither Wind alliance. All three of the sects had been stopped in the borders of their sects and were being prevented from leaving by the three sects of the Zither wind alliance.

'I need to get that solved too… it might have to be a radical choice too…' Lin Mu thought to himself.

Lin Mu intended to cover all the losses that had happened in the time he was in seclusion and wanted to fix things back to normal. With his new found strength, he had a lot more confidence. 

~shua~

The teleportation gate activated in front of Lin Mu and he entered it, leaving behind King Hong.

~phew~

"Now that he's finally back, we can begin our counterattack…" King Hong muttered as a determined expression appeared on his face.

"MINISTERS!" King Hong called out.

"Yes, King Hong!" they all replied.

"It's finally time for payback. Get ready," King Hong said with a smile.

"YES!" 

…

Lin Mu entered the teleportation gate that took him to the Fenlong kingdom from the nexus and arrived in a place he had not been to before.

"Huh? This is the… Fenlong palace?" Lin Mu guessed.

From what he remembered, there was originally going to one teleportation gate in the Jiao Long port and one in the capital of the Kingdom. But according to what he had heard from King Hong, Jing Luo was somewhere in the capital, helping them reinforce the formation arrays of the kingdom or something like that.

"Welcome! Alliance Leader Lin Mu." There were already people waiting for Lin Mu at the teleportation gate.

This time King Hong had informed them of Lin Mu's arrival and thus they weren't as shocked as the others. It also saved Lin Mu time on the pleasantries and formalities as they knew the goals that he was here for.

"Greetings." Lin Mu spoke and took a look at the welcome party.

There were two old men that looked to be somewhat high ranking from their robes. Their cultivation bases were also at the Nascent soul realm. 

"You're finally here." A woman's voice pulled Lin Mu's attention to the side where he found someone walking in.

"Miss Fen." Lin Mu cupped his hands in greeting.

"Pardon me for the hurried welcome. I hope alliance leader Lin Mu does not find it inadequate." Miss Fen said in a formal tone, making Lin Mu feel strange.

"These things do not concern me, Miss Fen. And neither do I care about such formalities. Besides, time is of the essence for us and it is best if I get to work." Lin Mu stated.

"Of course." Miss Fen said, her expression the same. Though a faint twitch in her hands could be seen.

She then took out a jade slip from her spatial storage treasure and handed it to Lin Mu.

"This should contain all the information that you wanted." Miss Fen spoke.

Lin Mu took a quick look through the records in the jade slip and nodded his head. This was mostly the recent developments in the Fenlong kingdom and how things had been faring here.

"Now then, can you tell me where is Jing Luo?" Lin Mu asked.

"You'll find Elder Jing Luo beyond the border of the Fenlong kingdom. He has been helping the other elders of my clan in setting up the second ring of defense against the Kingdom of Shu." Miss Fen replied.

Lin Mu's brows furrowed, but he nodded his head. He had heard of the conflict before and had some idea about it. That was also why he had gotten the jade slip, as it would help him figure out the situation.

"I shall leave then." Lin Mu said flatly.

"Oh, before you go, alliance leader." Miss Fen interrupted. "Once you go past fifty kilometers from the border, the communication jade slips will stop working. Thus, if you want to send any messages, you will have to get a messenger to do it for you." 

"I'll keep that in mind." Lin Mu replied and disappeared.

~Sigh~

Miss Fen sighed to herself and shook her head.

"Perhaps that is really a tall goal. We'll have to postpone it till after everything is resolved. He's too busy with all that is happening now." Miss Fen muttered to herself before leaving to do her own work.

While it looked like Lin Mu had left, he had actually not. Instead, he had just blinked and hid within the ground. He had sensed the strangeness of Miss Fen's actions and felt suspicious about it.

And now that he heard her words, he knew something was up.

'What is going on?' Lin Mu felt confused.

He spread his spirit sense around and checked everyone around him for any traces of human controlling blood curse and the signs of Invader.

"Hmm… nothing here. Thankfully." Lin Mu muttered with relief. 

"But then, what is up with them?" Lin Mu couldn't help but question.
