Chapter 1910  Doubtful Elders

Lin Mu found himself in a circular hall.

He was standing in the center of the hall while two circles of chairs surrounded it with a path going on one side. Follow current ɴᴏᴠᴇʟs on ɴo(v)elꜰɪre.ɴet

The two circles of chairs were levitated, with the circle at the back being the highest. The chair at the very opposite of the path was the largest and most elaborate, almost looking like a throne. Then on the right and left of the largest chair, there were two more chairs that were slightly larger than the other chairs.

It was clear that these were all positions of importance.

About half of the chairs were filled including the three important chairs. But the ones in the first circle were mostly empty, only the second circle of chairs being filled. All the people sitting on the chairs were gazing at Lin Mu as of now.

"I've brought him, Elders." The Junior Elder bowed his head and cupped his hands.

"You may return to your seat." A voice was heard from one of the three large seats.

The Junior Elder did as he was asked, and sat in the first circle of chairs taking one of the empty seats.

"State your identity Junior and how did you enter the Serene Glass Valley." The Elder sitting at the highest seat spoke.

Lin Mu looked at the old man, finding him to be the Sixth Tribulation Stage Immortal that he had sensed earlier. Similarly, the two beside him were the other Fifth Tribulation Stage Immortals. All of them were old men with long beards and seemed to be in their seventies.

They wore robes that had crests of their respective clans and made it easy to identify them.

'Shuijing Clan, Chang'an clan and the Guan Clan.' Lin Mu recognized them going from left to right.

The Shuijing clan was the one specialized in the Formations, Chang'an Clan was the one specialized in Immortal Weapons and also had the head seat, while the Guan Clan was specialized in Immortal Tools.

"I am Mu Lin, and I was invited by the two members of the Shuijing Clan who participated in the Tournament of the Four Guardians; Shuijing Mingzhu and Shuijing Ju." Lin Mu spoke. "As for how I entered the Serene Glass Valley, I simply crossed over the Great Meteorite Wall." He revealed.

"Impossible!" Several Elders said in unison. "The Great Meteorite Wall is impossible to traverse." One of the Elders to the right of Lin Mu shouted.

"The gravity will kill all those that come close enough to the wall." "Even Transcendent Immortals cannot climb over the wall." The Elder from the Guan Clan stated.

Hearing their words, it was clear that they had already heard about the fact that Lin Mu had been invited here and as such they weren't concerned about that. But they were shocked by him entering here by crossing over the Great Meteorite Wall.

"Elder, I know that. But what if… The Gravity no longer exists?" Lin Mu posed a possibility that seemed unbelievable to them.

"What a joke!" One of the Elders laughed.

"It is very easy to confirm Elders." Lin Mu interrupted them before they debated this further. "Why don't you send someone to confirm whether my words are true?" he proposed.

"Very well." This time the Elder in the highest seat, the Chang'an Elder spoke. "Elder Wen, you go check it." He spoke to one of the Elders sitting in the second circle.

"Yes!" The Elder stood up and quickly left through the teleportation circle.

After the Elder was gone, it seemed like the others chose not to speak until it was all confirmed.

~SHUA~

But at this moment, the teleportation circle glowed and two more people appeared.

"Daoist Mu Lin!" A girl's voice was heard.

Lin Mu looked at them, finding them familiar.

"You've finally come, Daoist Mu Lin!" Shuijing Ju said with excitement.

The ones who had arrived were none other than the two who had invited Lin Mu over.

"Ah, it's you two. I was wondering where to find you." Lin Mu replied. "You could have just asked anyone to take you to the Shuijing Clan." Shuijing Mingzhu spoke. "But why are you here?" she asked with concern.

It was at this time that Shuijing Ju turned to the three elders in the higher seats.

"Grand Elders, this is Daoist Mu Lin. The winner of the Tournament of the Four Guardian beasts!" He revealed. "Why has he been summoned here?" he felt confused as Lin Mu should have been honored instead of being brought to an interrogation.

Hearing his words, the elders all showed a surprised expressions. While they had indeed heard of the name of the winner, they didn't think Lin Mu was the same person. After all, the name Mu Lin was relatively common and they didn't think this would be the same person.

In fact, it was so common that one of the Minor clans in the Serene Glass Valley was named Mu too!

As such there would be several people named Mu Lin inside the clan too.

"Are you really the winner?" The Elder from the Chang'an clan asked directly.

"I am, Elder." Lin Mu said, "I am sure you can very easily verify that with the Imperial Court or the Temple itself."

The Chang'an Elder looked towards one of the High Elders and gestured to him with his eyes. The High Elder understood what he meant and took out a communication Jade Slip. He held it for a few seconds before his eyes went wide.

"It is true…" The High Elder said before tapping on the Jade Slip.

~shua~

A formation screen appeared in the center of the hall, on which a scene manifested.

It was the scene of Lin Mu being declared the winner of the Tournament of the Four Guardian Beasts.

~Sigh~

The Elders let out a sigh, while the three major clan elders stood up.

"Pardon us for this, but we had to be careful." The Elder from the Chang'an clan apologized.
