<h4>Chapter 1019 - A Reason For Arrival</h4>


    An encounter with the Northern Tribes''moners was certainly not what Lin Mu had expected today.


    He would have understood if it were the Northern Tribes'' cultivators or soldiers, but these were clearly the peasants.


    But after the vige head exined everything to Lin Mu and Jing Luo, they understood why such a strange situation had taken ce and why the vige was here.


    "So you''re telling me a priest from the Kiwa tribe came and told you that he would take your vige to a betternd?" Lin Mu asked after hearing the ount from the vige head.


    "Y-yes, my lord!" The vige head hurriedly replied.


    "Hmm…" Lin Mu rubbed his chin as he thought over the entire thing which seemed a bit absurd to him.


    What had happened to these vigers seemed a bit of a pity to Lin Mu.


    The vige head was apparently from one of the many subordinate viges under the Kiwa tribe. The Kiwa Tribe was one of the big ns of the Northern Tribes and its patriarch was one of the Dao Treading realm members.


    Lin Mu knew all this since he had gotten quite a lot of information from Ku Waowen.


    The vige this man lived in was among the very small ones and only had a poption of barely two hundred. They lived in a bad patch ofnd and didn''t have many resources. They could barely even afford to feed themselves not to mention trade.


    Thend was barren and frozen, not allowing them to grow any crops. Their only means of sustenance were thekes near their vige that had plenty of fish. Thus their vige was a fishing vige that greatly depended on it.


    Thus upon hearing that a priest from the Kiwa tribe was offering them a chance to relocate to a better ce, the vige head took it right away.


    Thend in the Forbidden continent was harsh, and thend which was fertile and could grow things was the most valuable. Thus ording to thews of the Northern Tribes, it was strictly forbidden for the vigers to move their vige without the permission of a priest or a tribe chieftain.


    Besides, the vigers were not in a position of moving around anywhere nearby either as their vige was already in a good ce for their region. If they went anywhere else, they would only be moving in a bad area.


    All the areas that were good were long since upied. And the few that were still free were in distant locations and filled with dangers.


    The priest offered to move the vigers on one condition, it being that they do not ask any questions and if anyone else asks them, not to answer them either. The priest then took them to a particr location, that was an old shrine.


    The shrine was big enough to amodate all the vigers and contained arge formation array. One by one, the vigers were sent into it and they all disappeared. They were told that this thing would take them to the best location for them.


    "When you arrived you say there were only eighty of you left?" Lin Mu questioned.


    "Yes… I… we… don''t know where the others went. We tried searching around in the past years, but were unable to get any traces of them." The Vige head spoke. "We feared… they had died during whatever happened at the time." He added, his voice feeling heavy.


    "I see.. And that''s how you all ended up making a vige here?" Lin Mu asked.


    "Yes, my lords." The vige head confirmed.


    Silence descended in the room as the vige head waited for Lin Mu''s response. But instead of him, he got a question from someone else.


    "This ce you all arrived at… we''d like you to take us there." Jing Luo stated.


    This belongs to N?velDrama.Org.


    "O-of course! It would be our pleasure!" The vige head replied.


    Lin Mu and Jing Luo turned around and started to walk, while the Vige head quickly hurried behind them.


    "Umm… my lords, the ce is a bit far from here. Would it be fine if I take some supplies with me?" the vige head asked.


    "How far is it approximately from here?" Lin Mu asked.


    "About two hundred kilometers." The Vige head answered.


    Hearing this, Lin Mu understood why the vige head was a bit afraid. This distance was rather long even for a seventh stage body tempering realm warrior like the vige head and it would take him a couple of days to travel that much.


    Besides, there was also the fact that there was a difference in status between that man and Lin Mu, thus he didn''t think that Lin Mu would lower himself to carry him or something.


    But he was in for a surprise.


    Lin Mu looked at Jing Luo and spoke, "take that out."


    <i>~shua~</i>


    Jing Luo waved his hand and an old item that Lin Mu had not seen for a while appeared.


    "This…" The vige head was shocked.


    In front of him was a boat that was better than anything he had ever seen in his lifetime. And not just that, it was a boat that could float in the air.


    He rubbed his eyes, thinking that he might have still need dreaming. But then realized that it was all real.


    ''A boat like this… a spirit vehicle… just who are these esteemed lords? Are they from the capital?'' the vige head wondered.


    "Get in." Lin Mu ordered.


    "Right away!" the vige head said before jumping into the spirit boat.


    Jing Luo and Lin Mu did the same as the boat started to rise up. The other vigers too saw it and were stunned. Some of them directly kneeled on the ground and kowtowed, saying things in anguage Lin Mu didn''t understand.


    Though he could tell that they were basically nothing but prayers for the Northern Tribes.


    <i>~whoosh~</i>


    The spirit boat flew away at a rapid speed.


    "You said it is in the south from here?" Lin Mu questioned.


    "Y-yes.." The vige head answered, trying to keep hisposure.
