The Loot From The Prince

Having grasped the seriousness of the situation, Lin Mu vowed to never speak about the technique.

"I shall never talk about it then, Senior." Lin Mu stated.

"Good." Xukong spoke, his voice still a bit heavy.

"But… will you be fine knowing this? Didn't you say Karma can affect everything, even you?" Lin Mu asked curiously.

"I'll be fine." Xukong replied. "While Karma can affect me too… those trying to pry into it will only be walking into a trap if they do it with me." He stated.

"A trap?" Lin Mu raised his brows in confusion.

"Let's just say, the cost of doing something like that would be too high for them." Xukong simply said.

"I see…" Lin Mu realized that Xukong might not be able to truly explain to him. 

"You should not think about that for now. Just focus on the tasks at hand. You do have a lot of resources to gather, if you are to practice the technique." Xukong said, changing the topic.
