Chapter 52: Growing Tension.
Opposite him to his left sat Mei, her slim, fairy like frame perched eagerly, her cute grin flashing as she eyed the food. On his right was Lian, her tall, imposing figure rigid, her nonchalant face betraying a quiet tension.
Lin Mu took his place between Mei and Lian, the fur-lined mat cushioning his frame as he settled in.
Hunger gnawed at him, not because of his exertion from cultivation but from the fact that he hadn’t had a good meal since coming here due to either having to save his life or fight a monstrous advisory. Unfortunately, even till now, it seemed he wouldn’t be fortunate enough to get a single bite.
’ Let’s dig in!’
The three Serinerians were stunned when he suddenly attacked the food with a ferocity that surprised even himself.
’ Wonderful!’ If one could see ones inner thoughts, they would easily see the broad grin in Lin Mu’s mind.
Each bite of tender, smoky beast meat vanished into his mouth, but unbeknownst to the others, he funneled it directly to the system, the meat being replaced by system coins, though municipal in size, their cumulative total would naturally be far greater than the 70 coins he received previously for the 7th stage 5kg beast meat.
Lin Mu reached for another piece, then another, his hands moving almost mechanically, driven by his desire for System Coins.
