Exploding Outpost
Lin Mu had been cultivating these past four days and had finally finished absorbing about half of the materials he had obtained from the Treasury Minister.
It had grown his cores by varying amounts but they were certainly bigger than before. Having tested out the control on his 'new' elements, Lin Mu found it to be better than before though still not at the level where he would be able to use them freely in a battle.
Other than this, he also checked up on Ashy regularly as she could give him quickly updates through their link. So far, the suspected servant girl had done nothing suspicious and had been following her regular routine of work and rest.
Lin Mu had been wondering if they were wrong, but he reckoned waiting a few more days was needed as this could very well be a method to throw off suspicion. This only became more apparent to him once the reports from Crown Prince Feng Shun and the Discipline hall arrived.
