Chapter 469: The Wait For The Operation

Lin Mu helped Little Shrubby gain better control of the hand for a few hours before he was finally able to use it. Though controlling the fingers was still hard for little shrubby as it had never used them before.

For Lin Mu or anyone that had a human like hand, it would have been easy to control them as they were used to it. But for a beast like little Shrubby, it had never done the same and as such, it was hard for it to learn.

It would be the same for humans if they were given an appendage they were not familiar with. For example, if a tail was given to Lin Mu he would have a hard time learning to use it too.

It took the entire night, before Little Shrubby was able to gain a basic ability to move the fingers. Its grip was either so strong that he snapped the utensils when he tried to hold on to them, or so weak that they simply fell from the hand.

Still, Little Shrubby was not hardhearted and was actually excited. This was like a new toy to him, and he was having a great time playing with it.

"This should be enough for now, the more he uses it the better his understanding will be." Xukong spoke, reminding Lin Mu that it was close to dawn now.

"It does look like it, senior. I guess I should return now." Lin Mu replied.

Lin Mu bade farewell to Little Shrubby and returned to the city. What he did not know was that a few cultivators would get reports of strange noises coming from a patch of the forest and visit it.

But what they would find there is handprint, and palm prints along with trees and rocks that had been destroyed. The matter finally ended with them declaring that it was just some cultivator practicing his techniques and thus causing all the noise.

They also found some camp fires set up that were extinguished along with some bones and scraps of cooked meat, which only assured them further that it was indeed some human cultivator who had taken a break here.

Such a thing was not that uncommon as a few wandering cultivators would pass by and take a halt here. Not everyone would visit the city and some didn't like to socialize with others that much.

Lin Mu had returned to the mercenary union branch and had just decided to stay at the library for the time being. He had told Wu Hei about this and he told him that it was actually a great idea for him to stay there.

Not many people favored the mercenary union now and not even the guards would think to check there. This made it the best place for Lin Mu to stay, as apparently there were a lot of spies in all the inns and hotels of the city.

Even though he looked completely different from before, it was still better if his 'new' identity stayed hidden for as long as possible. This would only be beneficial to their plan and would prolong the time it took for the sects to find out more about him when they started their plan.

Lin Mu was told to wait for a few days before he got the information from Wu Hei and thus had not left the city. While Wu Hei could easily give Lin Mu the location for the sects, it was still better if he gathered all the details for it.

He wanted the operation to be as swift as possible, so there was the least possible chance of an obstacle. This was due to the fact that most sects were quite huge in size. And had protective formations and arrays that were hard to bypass. 

Any intruder that was able to enter a sect would only get lost in them, or worse killed. If it was not so, any Tom, Dick or Harry would like to steal from the sects. After all, they were no less than a bank if one considered the sheer amount of fortune that was piled in there, both monetary and in the form of resources.

The clerks of the Mercenary union also did not mind, Lin Mu staying at the library, not to mention that had taken quite a liking to him now. Apparently, after he had left the Big Zhao's Heavenly Delicacies to follow after Wu Hei, the female clerk Tongguo Bing had taken the rest of the credit and bought more dishes for her fellow clerks.

This had made the clerks favor him a lot, and they felt like they were cheating Lin Mu instead. As he had already paid more than was actually worth to stay in the library. They didn't mind it even if he stayed there for a year as there wasn't anyone coming to the Mercenary union anyway.

About a week had passed since the meeting with Wu Hei and Lin Mu talked with him every day through the communication jade slips. The plan was coming together nicely and Wu Hei reckoned that in a month they should have enough to start their very first operation.

Lin Mu wanted it to be quicker, but even Senior Xukong told him to be patient as things like these could be very dangerous. Stealing from sects was considered a great crime, that too at the level which they were going to do. It would not be rare for the elders of the sect to personally hunt him down.

Not to mention since they were all being controlled by Gu Yao, the response would likely be even harsher. Lin Mu was already prepared to fight nascent soul realm cultivators in the future. He only had the experience with Gu Yao and he was probably one of the strongest Nascent Soul realm cultivators and if he took him as a standard, Lin Mu had confidence in holding out against one.

"Now to just bide our time…" Lin Mu muttered to himself as he finished reading another book.
