Rise Of The Worm Sovereign

Lin Wu's words were like an illusion to Long Qingao. He couldn't believe his ears since they were simply too far for him to believe.

"That... that's possible?" Long Qingao muttered.

"Of course, do you not believe me?" Lin Wu questioned, making Long Qingao more anxious.

"But... even the ancestors couldn't--" Before Long Qingao could finish his sentence, Lin Wu interrupted him.

"Do you think your ancestors even know the reality behind your problem?" Lin Wu stated.

Hearing the firmness in his voice, Long Qingao immediately broke out in a sweat.

Lin Wu watched the man for a minute in silence before speaking again.

"What you have is a bloodline imbalance cause by your weak body. If you had strengthened and tempered your body more, this problem would have never occurred." Lin Wu spoke. "Tell me... what was the highest stage of body tempering realm that you practiced till?" he asked.

"T-tenth stage of the body tempering realm." Long Qingao replied.

~Sigh~

"Just as I guessed." Lin Wu said in an all knowing voice, keeping up his act. "The people of this world simply don't know the benefits of a good foundation. No one cultivates till the thirteenth stage of the body tempering realm."

"The thirteenth stage?!" Long Qingao was startled. "B-but senior... if someone wanted to cultivate to the thirteenth stage, they would lag behind many of their peers. Not to mention they might just end up exhausting their lifespans before that.

Our clan had a member who tried that. He reached the twelfth stage of the body tempering realm, but ended up dying before reaching the thirteenth stage. And this was even with the increased lifespans that our bloodline offers. Even after a hundred and sixty years, he didn't reach it.

No treasures helped him, either. That sort of bottleneck is far too difficult to breach. In the same effort, one could reach the core condensation realm." He explained his side.

"Hmm... seems like this world lacks basic body cultivation techniques too... can't even cultivate to the thirteenth stage, what a joke." Lin Wu said, shocking Long Qingao even more.

'The thirteenth stage is a joke? Only a basic body cultivation technique is needed? Senior is really from a different world...' Long Qingao thought to himself.

But this also gave him renewed hope for his own condition.

"Then, senior... do you really have a method to fix my condition?" Long Qingao questioned.

"I do indeed." Lin Wu nodded his head.

"GREAT!" Long Qingao exclaimed.

"But I have a condition, of course." Lin Wu added.

Hearing this, Long Qingao became calm.

"Of course, nothing would come free. If even ancestors couldn't fix this problem of mine, then perhaps no amount of wealth would be enough to fix it in this world." Long Qingao muttered to himself.

"Indeed. And not just in this world. Even if you went to the oldies of the Azure Dragon Clan itself, you would be unable to do it. The only solution from them would be to cripple your bloodline and wash it out completely before restarting." Lin Wu casually said.

But Long Qingao didn't hear this solution at all. His ears kept on ringing with three words that Lin Wu had said before that...

"The Azure Dragon clan...?" Long Qingao said in disbelief.

"Oh? You don't know about them?" Lin Wu asked. "What kind of teaching does your clan give when you don't even know the origins of your bloodline?" Lin Wu scoffed.

"Umm... it's not that senior... we do know about the Azure Dragon bloodline, we've felt it. But... there is actually an entire clan?" Long Qingao questioned.

"Of course. They are one of the great beast clans of the universe and also serve as the protectors of a lot of the world along with the other three guardian clans." Lin Wu decided to broaden the horizons of this man, deepening his image as a senior.

Hearing that, Long Qingao felt like he was on clouds..

"It really exists... IT REALLY EXISTS!" Long Qingao laughed out loud.

"Huh?" Lin Wu responded blankly, still pretending.

"Our clan thought only the bloodline we had was left. And perhaps others might also have it. But we never knew there were still Azure dragons in existence." Long Qingao explained.

"I see... this world has indeed been isolated for far too long. It is strange... it is also missing the fourth..." Lin Wu muttered.

Hearing Lin Wu's words and connecting them with his earlier ones, Long Qingao picked up on it.

"Wait! There's a fourth guardian bloodline?!" He explained.

"Indeed. All worlds that gain the protection of the guardian beasts will have four of them. The Azure Dragon, The White Tiger, The Black Tortoise and finally the Vermillion bird." Lin Wu answered.

"The Vermillion bird..." Long Qingao furrowed his brows. "I... don't think I've heard of it."

To the Long clan, it would be a great shock if they knew about the fourth bloodline of the Vermillion bird. But this was exactly what Lin Wu wanted and it was a part of his plans for the future. Additionally, he had the proper assets to do that too.

"I don't know what happened to this world. But the bloodline of the Vermillion bird didn't take root and spread into a human clan like yours. Plus, the bloodlines your clan has is also that of a descendant guardian beast and not the true one.

The same can probably be said for the other two as well." Lin Wu spoke,

If anyone from the three clans were to hear this, they would consider it a great disrespect to their bloodline and the one who had said that would become their greatest enemy.

And yet to Long Qingao, these words were greatly enlightening. After all... the one saying those words mattered too. With Lin Wu here, there was no way he couldn't believe them. Besides he had already shown him far too shocking things earlier.

Lin Wu stared at the man and smiled internally. 'Got you in my net...'
