Chapter 1990 The Clan Head's Joy And Caution
Lin Mu watched the emotional and joyous reunion of the Father and Daughter.
It might not have been for that long, but the situation that Meihua was in certainly made it seem too long. His gaze also didn't go unnoticed by the man, as he soon looked at him.
"And who's this?" Meihua's father asked.
"This is Daoist Mu Lin. The one who saved Meihua, as well as the winner of the Tournament of the Four Guardian beasts." Princess Feng Lan introduced.
"Looks like I have a lot to be grateful to you about." The man said with deep gratitude in his voice. "I am Clan Head Guang San, of the Morning Glory Clan." He introduced himself.
"I am happy to have the opportunity of meeting you." Lin Mu greeted the man in a formal way.
"Let's go in. Daoist Mu Lin shall have the seat of honor today." Clan Head Guang San stated before taking the lead.
They all walked into the main hall of the clan, while the elders and others who were waiting in attendance felt nervous. They all knew that the clan head's joy was hiding anger within.
The Mistress Feng Lan might show it on her face and it might seem scary, the clan head's anger was much more severe. He was one that hid it behind a mask, but when it came out, it would make one wish to hide far away.
In fact, when the Clan Head had held Meihua, he had also sent out multiple messages simultaneously. Lin Mu had sensed that happen, and guessed that he had been talking to others in the clan as well as others around them.
But that wasn't all that he did.
"It is just something I had to do. You don't have to think much of it clan head." Lin Mu replied. "Besides, I am friends with Crown Prince Feng Shun. I do not think I would be able to just stand by and watch his niece getting attacked." He added.
The clan head glanced at his wife for a moment, and got the confirmation from her that Lin Mu was indeed speaking the truth.
'So he's acquainted with brother in law too...' The Clan head noted, changing a few of the things he was going to say. "Still, we cannot let this go unrewarded. You can have any of the pills you want from our clan. Or if you wish, you can also get any particular pill commissioned." He offered.
"I'll think about it." Lin Mu replied, not knowing what to actually get.
He had plenty of pills with him, and didn't have a particular need for anything new. Though he still wouldn't deny more pills as they could always come in handy in the future.
Even if he didn't use them himself, he could still give them to others or simply sell them if he ever had to.
Plus it would also be denying the Morning Glory clan face if he did not accept their reward. "Clan head, we still need to address the matter of the clan barrier not working." One of the elders interjected.
It was clear that they were quite anxious too. It was a matter of great concern to them, and needed to be resolved with utmost care. After all, it threatened the entire safety of the Morning Glory Clan in a way.
"I was about to move to that." Clan head Guang San said before looking at his wife. "What did you see?" he asked.
"There's an entire hole in the barrier. Enough for several of the Branch Horn Wolves to get in." It was clear that the princess had already checked on the barrier when she had went out to look for Meihua.
After all, someone of her cultivation base merely had to do a single sweep of Immortal sense to figure out what went wrong.
"A hole? Did you find the cause?" Lin Mu asked feeling curious.
