Chapter 1251 A Quest For Food

　　'I'll need to move the house again…' Lin Mu realized. 

　　It was his third house and even that had been broken by the snakes. The earlier two had been broke during his experiment with the formation arrays and the cultivation techniques. Even his third one was made some distance away from the other houses just to make sure others wouldn't be affected by it.

　　Thankfully, the Haima tribe people weren't bothered by it and there were plenty of houses to go around. Before Lin Mu's arrival, the people of the tribe had limited things to do, thus the builders among them would continue to make more houses even if there wasn't any particular need for them.

　　If anything, it was a way for them to endure boredom and pass time.

　　Which was why, over a quarter of the houses in the Haima tribe were empty. Though there was also the fact that most houses were just made out of stone and mortar, so there wasn't any extra expense to building them.

　　With this passing thought, Lin Mu appeared on top of the mountain again. This time though, Elder Niji was waiting for him there. He had heard from the messenger what had happened and wondered just what was happening.

　　"I'll have to head out for a bit." Lin Mu spoke.

　　"Head out? Where are you going noble Lin Mu?" Elder Niji questioned.

　　"These children need to eat. They've eaten the Chasm Beasts before and need to eat them again, I'm going to go find some for them." Lin Mu answered.

　　Elder Niji looked at the two small snakes wrapped around Lin Mu's palm and was surprised. While he had been told that they two snakes had wiped out chasm beasts, he didn't expect them to desire more.

　　"I see… but if you are going out, you should take some of our warriors with us." Elder Niji suggested.

　　"I shall accompany Noble Lin Mu." Head Warrior Kulo spoke from afar. "I know places where the Chasm Beasts are almost always present." He added.

　　"Alright, that will be good." Lin Mu nodded his head.

　　He still didn't know much about the Land of exile and its places beyond what he had seen, so having a guide would help. 

　　"Also, may I impose on Noble Lin Mu and let the younger warriors accompany us? They need to learn about the barren lands too. Many of them haven't gone further than a few kilometer from the tribe." Head Warrior Kulo asked.

　　"Sure, it'll be fine." Lin Mu agreed. "Perhaps they'll get to expand their experience too."The latest_epi_sodes are on_the (f)ir(e).nᴇt

　　"They surely will." Head Warrior Kulo nodded his head and quickly called for the warriors who were sparring below the mountain.

　　After a large scale beast tide passed, there was a time of temporary peace. During this period, the number of Chasm beasts would greatly decrease and thus it was the best time for the Haima tribe to scour the barren lands.

　　Lin Mu also knew of this, but he reckoned that even if they didn't find any chasm beasts, the two snakes might still be able to consume the dark dusty fog that filled the top of the Broken Chasm.

　　After all, the beasts were formed form that and the black snake had consumed the same thing before.

　　'Though maybe there is more to the beasts that makes them desirable to the snakes…' Lin Mu pondered.

　　Five minutes later, the Haima tribe warriors were ready and a group of ten novice warriors was gathered. These were the ones who had basically never gone out of the tribe much and would be the next generation of the warriors.

　　While Lin Mu and Elder Niji intended for the Haima tribe to leave the land of exile, it didn't mean that they couldn't get any experience from this excursion. After all, there was a good chance they would face an even greater danger outside the lands of exile.

　　"Take care Noble Lin Mu. While there is a lack of Chasm Beasts during this time, we never know what other dangers might pop up in the Land of exile." Elder Niji said with concern.

　　"I shall keep that in mind." Lin Mu nodded his head.

　　With that done, the group of twelve left the tribe's borders and set out to search for Chasm Beasts. 

　　"It's best we walk alongside the broken chasm. If there are any Chasm Beasts, they would usually linger near its edges." Head Warrior Kulo stated.

　　"Alright, I need to check something there anyway." Lin Mu nodded his head.

　　"Warriors keep up with us! LEAP!" Head Warrior Kulo ordered before gathering power in his legs.

　　~WHOOSH~

　　He soared into the air and took the lead. Lin Mu followed after the man and leaped as well. The younger warriors did the same, but they were unable to leap as far as Lin Mu and Head Warrior Kulo.

　　Even though they were at the Nascent soul too now, they wouldn't be able to keep up with Head Warrior Kulo, not to mention Lin Mu.

　　~hiss~

　　While moving, Lin Mu felt the twin snakes wiggling in his hand. He eased up on the grip and saw them move along his hand. They reached up to his neck and coiled up around it.

　　"Guess that's more comfortable for you two." Lin Mu said as he saw the two small heads from the corner of his eyes.

　　Since they didn't talk normally yet, he needed to understand from their cues. 

　　Lin Mu couldn't help but recall the first time he had met Little Shrubby and how long it had taken for him to communicate effectively with him. Though once he had done that, it had become smooth.

　　'Hmm… compared to Little Shrubby back then, these two are very young.' Lin Mu guessed.

　　He had once asked Little Shrubby how old he was, but even the beast didn't know the answer, not having a sense of time early in his life. But according to Xukong's estimate, the beast should have been at least ten years old when Lin Mu first met him.
