Ye Zi Jin's Scheme

Lying in front of Lin Mu was none other than Ye Zi Jin, the daughter of peak master Yi Deng. Lin Mu didn't know what to make of it at first, but then a few seconds later, he was able to connect the dots.

"Ye Zi Jin said something back then at the vault… so this is what she meant by gaining power…" Lin Mu muttered to himself.

Lin Mu could understand the anxiety of Ye Zi Jin and the peak master, but he had not thought that she would go to this extent. Another thing that bothered him was that Gu Yao should have had control over Ye Zi Jin as well.

'Was this his doing, perhaps? No… it wouldn't make sense. Why would he lose a potential Nascent soul realm cultivator like that?' Lin Mu wondered.

"Seems like when Gu Yao has not given any command to his servants actively, they will act in their own capacity. I don't think peak master Yi Deng was behind this either." Xukong suggested.
