Walker Of The Worlds Chapter 1418 Just Because He Could

1418 Just Because He Could

Cong Shui and her companions had thought that they would at least get to know his name after all that he had done for them. But now he was denying them even that. They felt sad that they couldn’t get it too.

Cong Shui felt like she should say something, and was about to before Lin Mu spoke again.

“And for a reward I don’t need anything from your clan. I’ll just take the things from their corpses.” Lin Mu stated.

~SHUA~

Then in the next moment he disappeared from his location.

“What?” Feiyu was stunned, and sensed Lin Mu appearing close by.

He turned to the side and saw Lin Mu picking up the items from the dead bodies. But it wasn’t him picking up that stunned him, but rather the fact that his body kept in disappearing and reappearing at multiple spots.

“How’s he that fast?” the other guards couldn’t help but mutter.

But Feiyu knew that wasn’t something that was accomplished by speed.

‘Spatial skills? Heavens… just what kind of an expert did we come across?’ Feiyu was absolutely shocked.

Even in the Rust Sky world, the number of experts that had affinity to s.p.a.ce were far and few in between. As for the number that could use spatial skills were many times rarer.

And someone like Lin Mu who had sword intent, strong immortal weapons as well as spatial affinity was as rare as the feathers of a phoenix or the horns of a Qilin.

Feiyu even wondered if they had come across some great heir of the empire.

‘No… even in all the empires their heirs do not have affinity to s.p.a.ce.’ Feiyu recalled.

If there was anyone with an affinity to s.p.a.ce, there would be a lot of fanfare about it. After all, no empire would be able to resist gloating about their excellent heirs. It was a great matter of pride and respect!

Considering this, Feiyu reckoned that Lin Mu might be from one of the clans and also a reclusive expert.

‘For reclusive experts like those, it isn’t unusual to want to stay anonymous. He even wears a mask, so it does seem likely.’ Feiyu a.n.a.lyzed and got to a conclusion.

By the time he was done thinking though, Lin Mu had collected all the spoils of his fight.

‘This is a decent harvest. Eight Spatial storage tools and six immortal weapons along with several miscellaneous things.’ Lin Mu took a quick look at the items.

He had almost forgotten just how profitable this method of ‘harvesting’ was.

‘It isn’t good to do it often though… unless there is a concrete reason.’ Lin Mu thought to himself.

“Senior… is this really enough?” Cong Shui asked carefully.

“Yes.” Lin Mu replied plainly.

“But… why would you save us?” Cong Shui asked the thing she was wondering about the entire time.

Normally speaking, Lin Mu didn’t need to get into a conflict with the Saber Battle Union for them. Just watching as a bystander could also be considered normal when one was faced with stronger people.

This was even more so for Lin Mu who had fought foes in their own territory.

Cong Shui’s question resonated with the others too, making them wonder too.

Lin Mu thought about the question for a few seconds before saying, “just because I could.”

~SHUA~

Having said that, he disappeared.

Cong Shui and the rest started at the spot Lin Mu had stood just a few moments ago.

“Just because he could… Just because he could…” Cong Shui felt warm and awed at the same time.

‘Isn’t this the kind of strength I’ve been yearning for? Being able to do whatever I want without others being able to stop me?’ Cong Shui felt a new found motivation in her mind.

Before this she was ambitious, but it was a blurry ambition. She had a vague goal she was going towards, but it wasn’t enough to give her stability. It only made her wander until she found an ideal task to do that would help her status.

But now, she knew what she had to do.

“Getting stronger is the only key to success… I have to get stronger and repay senior one day.” Cong Shui said to herself with determination.

Feiyu saw his young miss getting motivated and felt touched. He could already see her rise in the future.

‘Looks like the Cong Clan juniors will be having some tough compet.i.tion soon..’ Feiyu reckoned.

Lin Mu had no idea that his casual words had such an impact on Cong Shui. To him, this battle was something that helped him test his skill against stronger opponents, while also helping someone.

‘At first I thought she was like the n.o.bles I’ve seen commonly. But she’s different… she actually cares about the people lower than her.’ Lin Mu found Cong Shui to be a decent person.

The battle had given Lin Mu a lot to think about too as he had finally gotten to use his new weapons practically.

‘The bow is truly surprising… Wonder Seeker has a lot more to show than it has so far…’ Lin Mu understood.

It was highly compatible with other qi skills and could actually combine them with its own skills to make a new fused skill.

For example, Lin Mu had used the Searing Sparrow Darts Qi skill that he had made and used it with Wonder Seeker.

The bow had responded automatically and adapted the qi skill, transforming them into arrows and even upgrading the spirit qi into Immortal qi!

So far Lin Mu only had non-attribute immortal qi. He had not converted any of it into the elemental forms. But the bow could do it on its own, making it a lot more convenient for him.

And this was just that start of it too.

Wonder Seeker was compatible with Dao Skills as well!

For example, the last arrow that Lin Mu had used to stun the leader was made from his True Earth heart’s ability to make stones and aspect of heaviness.
