Rise Of The Worm Sovereign

Lin Wu continued to read and got to learn more about the reality.

The invaders were winning for the most part due to their overall superiority and advanced skills, but that was until the three clans gained control of the beacons and awakened the guardian beasts.

That was also why the invaders didn't resist as much, even if they had the power to. They simply didn't want to deal with the four guardian beasts.

There was specifically written that the Leader of the Thirteenth Thunder Chamber cursed to no end when he found out there were already beacons of the guardian beasts here. 

He swore to kill seven generations of whoever it was that spread the rumor about the Ming Dao world being free from the influence of the Four Guardian beasts.

While they were a bit confused by the fact that only three of them had appeared and there was no sign of the Vermillion bird, they didn't dare to investigate that. To them, escaping was the most important thing, and they quickly abandoned everything and left the world.

"Hmm… so it seems like the Frost Fox clan got freed because of the Guardian beasts too." Lin Wu said after he finished reading.

"You could say that, yes. But at the same time, it was those guardian beasts that made us unable to grow here. If it were not for them, the world would not have considered as outsiders.

Their appearance has said to have awakened the world's will and made it rapidly grow." Yun Bai spoke.

"I see, so they are both your fortune and misfortune." Lin Wu understood.

Yun Bai nodded his head, and Lin Wu went back to reading.

This time the information that he was looking at was about what was done with the things that were left behind by the invaders. 

"Just as I thought, the top clans became the top clans for a reason. They took over all that was left behind by the invaders. Them sealing and destroying all those things was just for show and they never actually did that." Lin Wu said after reading it.

"Indeed. I was surprised by this too. The top clans, not just of this continent but of the other two as well have it." Yun Bai agreed.

"Then it just means that the agitation jade is something that only the top clans would know about. Which reduces it to just a handful of targets." Lin Wu said after thinking.

"Indeed. But why do I feel like you know more than just that?" Bai Yun asked, feeling something.

"Hmm… I admit I know a bit more. That letter Wang Xiong found from the spy, it mentions a name Weiyuan." Lin Wu replied.

"And?" Yun Bai inquired.

"That Weiyuan is actually the eldest son of the Ji clan, Ji Yuan. He has an organization of his own called as the Weiyuan Chamber." Lin Wu revealed.

"THOSE GUYS?" Yun Bai exclaimed.

"Oh? Have you had some interaction with them?" Lin Wu questioned.

"Yes…" Yun Bai said, as his forehead wrinkled.

"What happened?" Lin Wu asked.

"The Weiyuan chamber actually asked the Frozen Cloud sect for some land a long time ago. Of course, they only put in a formal request and there was no demanding nature in it. They were fully willing to buy it at a reasonable price." Yun Bai answered.

"Hmm… and I'm guessing the sect denied it?" Lin Wu surmised.

"They did, of course! I myself rejected it when the patriarch informed me. It would be against the terms that I set with the founder and besides, I would never allow someone else that I do not have control over from existing near the Frozen Cloud sect as it could very well threaten my own clan." Yun Bai stated.

"And what happened after they were rejected? Did they protest?" Lin Wu questioned.

"No, they did nothing. They simply sent a letter of thanks and we had no interaction after that." Yun Bai explained.

"And the sect never investigated more about them?" Lin Wu asked.

"We did after a while yes, and we found out that they had some suspicion dealings with people. They were a new power and were just establishing them, thus we let them be. A lot of new powers need to do some… Grey things in order to raise their status, which was understandable.

Plus, the sect still didn't know who was backing them and thud didn't want to bring extra trouble to them. We let go of that matter and forgot about it pretty much." Yun Bai replied.

"Until now," Lin Mu added.

"Until now indeed. If I knew they would attempt something like this, I would not have let them free." Yun Bai said in a cold tone. 

"And they now have expanded enough to have people all over the continent." Lin Wu spoke.

"Hmm… they certainly knew about the hidden layer in the Di Guan mines beforehand. Otherwise they would not have been trying for so long." Yun Bai replied.

"I mean, they tried the official route and were rejected, thus they switched to a longer and illegal one. But yeah, the things in the Di Guan mines are definitely enough to make anyone greedy for them." Lin Wu stated.

"With the earthen Depths obsidian there, it is more than enough for the sects to break out in a war. Which makes me wonder how did they even find out about it? The mineral is very hard to find as it prevents spirit sense." Yun Bai wondered.

"Well, since Ji Yuan is from one of the top clans, I reckon he discovered about it in some old records? The invaders certainly had better skills that would allow them to find such things hidden away in the ground.

They may have noted them down but never got to mining them since they had other things to take care of back then." Lin Wu hypothesized.

"Hmm… that combined with the agitation jade would mean that this Ji Yuan has access to quite a few records. We will have to be careful then.." Yun Bai spoke in a serious tone.
