Lin Mo kept his eyes fixed on Orochimaru and asked, "You know where I want to go?"
Orochimaru's lips curved slightly. "I believe it's called the Xuanming Sect. That brat Hong Xuan mentioned you were interested in someone who wanted to challenge them. I imagine you're going to the Xuanming Sect to find that man, correct?"
Lin Mo: "..."
They hadn't seen each other for only two days, and this guy had been researching talismans, hunting down books, and still finding time to dig up gossip?
Other people had twenty-four hours in a day. This guy must have had seventy-two!
Sure enough, he wasn't someone to underestimate.
Lin Mo asked expressionlessly, "What else do you know?"
Orochimaru wore an ambiguous smile. "I'm quite interested in the Xuanming Sect myself, so I asked around a little more. The man you want to meet is still there, waiting for someone."
Then he changed the subject and asked curiously, "Who is this man? Is he strong?"
Lin Mo glanced at him, then answered as though it went without saying, "Very strong. He's a renowned Great Swordsman in the world I came from."
"Oh? A Master Swordsman?" Orochimaru rubbed his chin thoughtfully. "Sounds promising. What a headache. It seems I'll have quite a lot to do."
Lin Mo asked expressionlessly, "Are you sure you can handle the one in the Spirit Beast Mountains?"
"How would I know I can't without trying?" Orochimaru said with absolute confidence. "I'll go to the Spirit Beast Mountains first, then visit the Xuanming Sect after dealing with that fellow. I've already calculated the approximate travel time. You'd best not use that talisman for three months."
The talisman Orochimaru meant was the one he had just given Lin Mo, which could teleport him to them.
Lin Mo nodded. "All right."
