~Shing~

~Slick~

~Thud~

A large beast's head rolled on the ground as blood splattered to the sides. Lin Mu gestured with his fingers, and his short sword returned to his scabbard. 

~Sigh~

A sigh escaped Lin Mu's lips as he witnessed another failure. About four days had passed since Lin Mu set the formation array and bade farewell to Jing Wei and Duan Ke. The two of them had left the town the very night when Lin Mu had met them.

He had not seen them leave but could sense it due to the communication jade that he had. Jing Wei had told Lin Mu had as long as they were within the distance of about a thousand kilometers the communication jade would work. But last night it had finally stopped working and the connection it had was broken.

It was evident from this that they had long left the town or even the kingdom itself, depending on the direction they went.
