"Indeed. We may not find anything for a long time and investigating it would be impossible unless a very strong expert lends a hand." Shirong spoke.
Hearing Shirong, Yu Guowei nodded his head in understanding.
"Seems like the clan is our only chance." Yu Guowei replied.
"Yes, I'll head out there now. There doesn't seem to be much left to do here." Shirong said.
"I'll wish you the very best, Young master." Yu Guowei cupped his hand.
Shirong then left the office and spoke with the two generals about heading back. They thus departed and went back to the Royal Palace. There, Shirong talked to the king about discussing this with the king and that they could contact him and the clan if any problem arrived or new information was found.
The king agreed right away and was thankful for the help. With that done, Shirong left the Ivory Heron Dynasty and headed north. The Ji clan was located far to the north of the Long continent in an area that was secret to others.
"Time to head back home…" Shirong muttered as he flew away.
***
While Shirong experience and learned of the disasters, there was another person who had done the same as well.
This was none other than the current chief disciple of the Frozen Cloud sect, Wang Xiong, who was also the first human subordinate of Lin Wu.
Currently, he was sitting in a rather luxurious room and reading a bunch of letters and reports that he had gotten. Wang Xiong had been following Lin Wu's instructions and was building his own power in the sect.
He knew that building power was not easy, and neither was it direct. One needed more than just a cultivation base to do so and thus Wang Xiong was increasing his understanding of the current events of the world.
Only by keeping himself updated on everything will he have the chance to act when an opportunity presented itself. It would also allow him to predict different situations which could be both beneficial and disadvantageous.
It was up to him to make use of them and thus he was doing his best in learning about things.
~knock~ knock~
A minute later, a knock on the door was heard.
"Senior, it's me." A woman's voice could be heard coming from the outside.
"Come in, Ye Jin," Wang Xiong called her in.
The woman was none other than the junior sister of Wang Xiong, who had sacrificed her life so that he could succeed in the trial. Since Wang Xiong had become the chief disciple of the Frozen Cloud sect, his authority was only below that of the supreme elders and the patriarch now.
Making his friends into inner disciples and giving them resources took little effort from him. And then from among them the ones that progressed fast were even elevated to the next rank, becoming the Core disciples.
The ones that had managed to do this were Ye Jin and Su Wen. Ye Jing had reached the pseudo Nascent soul realm already and was close to a breakthrough at any time. Su Wen was the same and it could be said that both of them had a lot of talent.
Once they were given the resources and the cultivation technique, the two of them showed their true potential and their cultivation soared. It had been almost a year since they managed to survive the trials in the tomb now.
And in this one year, all of them had progressed a lot. Still, the one that had progressed the most was none other than Wang Xiong himself. The man had reached the Child Soul stage of the Nascence soul realm already.
The resources he got as a Chief disciple were the highest in the sect and he basically had a free rein on whatever they had. If he wanted it, he got it. With such access, even a pig would be able to cultivate.
The Taiji refinement scripture was already a top grade cultivation technique when compared to the rest in the world and it was enough to make Wang Xiong progress at a speed never seen by anyone in the sect.
The sect patriarch was very pleased with his progress and couldn't help but smile whenever he thought of the time he decided to take him in as a disciple. Even with the few pointers, he gave to Wang Xiong, the man managed to figure out the rest on his own.
The patriarch didn't even feel like he was teaching a student, it was so easy.
This had also managed to suppress the other elders and had reduced the authority of the discipline hall. There were many elders with Wang Xiong becoming a chief disciple and the resources he was getting.
But once he started to show his true potential, there wasn't much they could do. Not only was Wang Xiong under the protection of the patriarch, but he was also growing strong at a fast pace.
They knew that it wouldn't be long before Wang Xiong might become stronger than all of the high elders and reach the level of the supreme elders. Not only that, but if Wang Xiong managed to reach the Dao Shell realm in the coming few years, the position of the next patriarch would definitely be his.
Though that was a change that would happen a long time in the future. After all, the current patriarch was still rather young and had a long time ahead of him. His potential was also no less than Wang Xiong and he was once a prodigy of the sect as well.
Wang Xiong looked at Ye Jing, who had walked in and smiled. The woman had gotten better after her breakthrough and the various resources she had consumed had enhanced her skin, turning it smooth like milk.
Her cherry red lips curled as she saw her senior brother. In her eyes, a hint of affection could be seen and the same could be said for Wang Xiong.
