Lin Mu had imagined a lot of possibilities upon seeing the beast approach him, but that beast taking a burning stick was not one of those possibilities. He couldn't even begin to think for reasons behind that as the confusion plaguing him was rather complex.
'Why?'
Was the main question hanging in his brain.
"This is rather peculiar." Xukong chimed in.
"Isn't it Senior? What would a spirit beast need with a burning stick?" Lin Mu questioned.
"I have no idea… Well I do, but they are likely to be false and would be far-fetched." Xukong replied.
"Hmm, it is a mystery. Unless we see that beast again, I don't think we can determine the reason for it." Lin Mu spoke with slight disappointment.
Having spoken his mind, Lin Mu pushed the thoughts to the back of his mind and focused on what needed to be done, the second reason why he had come to the forest. He was here to test out his skills now that his strength had increased and his foundation had become more deep.
