The person who had 'reserved' Lin Mu was none other than Crown Prince Feng Shun.
Lin Mu had resolved the man's issue and had appraised the stele. In exchange he had obtained the Tyrant Bull Marrow which was something Lin Mu had been looking for a long time.
Lin Mu had never thought that they would actually end up seeing the man so soon.
It wasn't just him that was surprised though, others that were accompanying him were the same. And from the words that were exchanged between the two, it was clear that Lin Mu was already 'acquainted' with the Crown Prince.
At this point, they didn't know what to think of Lin Mu. First he had shown incredible abilities, and then a monstrous appetite. After that here he was, having been invited by the Crown Prince of the Dao Wind Empire himself.
"I was just here with a few friends to relax. Imagine my surprise when I sensed a familiar aura… A Tyrannical aura." Crown Prince Feng Shun spoke.
"I apologize if it bothered you." Lin Mu replied calmly, while the others only grew nervous.
"Haha! No need to apologize. It was fun to see a little action." Crown Prince Feng Shun replied.
"I never expected to see the Tyrannical Aura of the Tyrant Bull here either." The beautiful woman next to Feng Shun spoke.
"Indeed… Seems like Daoist Mu Lin was successful in his endeavor." Crown Prince Feng Shun added.
"I was, thanks to your help." Lin Mu replied.
Lu Xu and the others who were hearing this information were baffled. While they couldn't tell exactly what had happened, one thing was clear the Crown Prince Feng Shun and Lin Mu had done an exchange before.
"Tyrant Bull?" It was at this time that Ming Aolian muttered.
A thought appeared in her mind, as she repeated the name.
"Tyrant Bull as in… The Great beast Tyrant Bull?!" She finally realized.
As much as Lin Mu would have preferred to keep the information limited, he couldn't really do anything here. The Tyrant Bull had been killed by the Crown Prince and he was in his territory as well.
Besides other than revealing this, the man hadn't really offended Lin Mu at all. Plus, making an enemy out of the Crown Prince of the Dao Wind Empire was not good.
'Me having learned Tyrant Bull Marrow Secrets would have gotten out eventually… plus if Crown Prince Feng Shun can sense and recognize the aura, other experts should be able to do the same. It was ignorant of me to think I could keep it a secret.' Lin Mu said to himself.
"Indeed. Crown Prince Feng Shun killed one when we were having a small hunting competition." The man dressed in Daoist Robes spoke.
He was sitting two seats away from the Crown Prince and had a rather staunch appearance. Lin Mu could tell that he had a high arrogance and yet he seemed to be a bit subservient to Crown Prince Feng Shun. At the same time, Lin Mu could feel the energy fluctuations coming from the man.
'He's at the Fifth Tribulation Stage of the Immortal realm for sure… same with the Woman next to the Crown Prince.' Lin Mu grasped.
The only person Lin Mu couldn't sense was the monk. I wasn't that the man had no energy fluctuations, but that they seemed to be greatly suppressed. Then there was a secondary wave of energy coming from the prayer beads he was wearing on his wrist.
It was this wave of energy that was distorting the man's own energy fluctuations, making it hard to tell what his cultivation base was.
'He should be at a similar level, considering he is with the Crown Prince.' Lin Mu reckoned.
"Isn't the Tyrant Bull something even a Peak Immortal would have trouble with?" Ming Aolian said in mix doubt and shock.
Since both Ming Aolian and Ming Dandan were beast tamers, their knowledge about the beasts was higher than others. Thus them knowing about the Tyrant Bull was expected, even if it took them a bit to recall it.
"It was just a juvenile." Crown Prince Feng Shun said casually and waved his hand. "If you are to be surprised of anything, it should Daoist Mu Lin." He looked at Lin Mu.
Lin Mu didn't react much and stayed calm. This was the best option right now, and it didn't seem that bad either.
'If he's going this far as to invite me and the others, he must have some goal…' Lin Mu thought to himself.
"Daoist Mu Lin Managed to cultivate the Tyrant Bull Marrow Secrets in less than a month. Most would struggle even for years." Crown Prince Feng Shun said with a smirk. "That too this level… It's very impressive."
Luo Liqin who used to be a body cultivator recognized the cultivation technique. While he didn't know about the Tyrant Bull itself, he surely knew of the Tyrant Bull Marrow Secrets. It wasn't a secret body cultivation technique and could actually be found on the market with a little effort.
It was the requirement of the cultivation technique that was the most difficult part, and then actually practicing it and succeeding was an entirely different game. And yet, if Crown Prince Feng Shun's words were to be taken as truth, Lin Mu seemed to done this in a very short time.
With the little 'demonstration' they had seen earlier from Lin Mu, they were now quite sure that Lin Mu was a lot stronger than they had thought before.
"I'm flattered by your praise, Crown Prince Feng Shun but may I inquire for what you've 'reserved' me today." Lin Mu spoke up, wanting to get to the crux of the matter.
"Ah yes! How can I forget?" Crown Prince Feng Shun replied while slapping the table with his palm.
He gave a look to his companions before speaking, "The reason why I've called you here is because I find you suitable for another task."
