Lin Mu carefully recorded all changes mentally.
If he appeared as Zhenyu, he would need to know which old terms had become outdated. Calling a modern department by an ancient name could immediately expose him to someone knowledgeable enough when he did not intend to do so.
He also paid close attention to the sect's attitude toward Zhenyu.
The official records did not portray him as a saint but they did not portray him as a villain either. He was remembered as an exceptionally talented cultivator whose personality had frequently caused trouble. There were complaints about him, commendations for him and several disciplinary records.
Lin Mu found that rather useful as a perfect reputation would have been suspicious. An imperfect one gave him room to behave strangely. If Lin Mu forgot something, he could blame the passage of time.
