The Club tallied Lizard accepted the crystals, albeit a bit hesitatingly. Though on the inside, she felt differently.
'How much will they be able to grow with the help of these?' The Club tailed Lizard thought.
Having taken them, she took her leave and left Lin Mu to himself.
"Hmm… truly strange…" Lin Wu muttered as he looked at the system window in front of him.
The system was currently working on analyzing the metal girdle and was failing in all attempts.
"This will take a while, won't it?" Lin Wu said to himself and decided to do some other things while the system continued its attempts.
Lin Wu had about three days before he would be receiving any information from the two human subordinates of his. Though, Lin Wu didn't just leave them to themselves and kept an eye on their status in the system window, just in case something happened.
…
And just like that, three days passed in the blink of an eye.
"We're ready, master!" the beasts spoke out loud as they gathered in the main hall.
Lin Wu looked over at them and nodded. He had just received the detailed report from Tian Han and Tian Chu. The moment he got it, he had called upon his subordinates and servants.
"Let's see what's the situation at the Frozen Cloud sect…" Lin Wu started to read.
Tian Han and Tian Chu left the Tian clan's branch the very next day, Lin Wu had instructed them to, albeit with different reasons. Tian Chu could leave without a notice since she was an elder already, but Tian Han couldn't do the same easily.
Thankfully for him, there was a mission that was perfect for him to take. The mission was actually something that allowed them the easier access to the Frozen Cloud sect.
The goal of the mission?
Inquiring about the whereabouts of Tian Xiaoge, the daughter of the clan patriarch.
Reading this Lin Wu couldn't help but be surprise.
'Oh yeah… I never told them Tian Xiaoge is here either. Plus, only Wang Xiong knows about the disciples cultivating in the forest.' Lin Wu realized.
He had let Wang Xiong stay them here since that was the best option they had. Not only was this good for Wang Xiong since he would have a group of people outside the sect for use, but for Lin Wu too, as he would now have humans for his use when needed.
Not only that, but since they had passed the trials of the Sky Bright Daoist and even the Taiji Celestial's trials, they were stronger than many other cultivators of the same level. Not to mention, their mentalities had been refined and their will was many times tougher than the average cultivator.
According to the updates he had gotten from the Emeraldine Sky Light monk ape, the human cultivators were steadily improving and it wouldn't be a surprise if all of them reached the Nascent soul realm at the same time some time in the future.
That would be a great improvement to Lin Wu's power and he would be able to start expanding in the human territories even better with their use. Now matter how much he grew stronger, a beast appearing in human territories will always be problematic.
Even if Lin Wu showed his intelligence and power, they would not be convinced and there would be enmity. It was the innate human instinct to hate what was not them and be suspicious about them.
Lin Wu couldn't complain about that either, as he was the same. Ever since becoming a beast he had found himself getting more and more inclined towards beasts. He could feel a strange closeness that didn't exist before.
He could only attribute it to them being his 'kin' now.
It was strange for Lin Wu, since he didn't really feel such innate closeness in his past life when he was human either… or so he thought. His memories were only getting blurry as time passed.
At first he used to be worried about it, but now he didn't care as much. Or rather, the worrying feeling… the sense of losing oneself was gone.
The mission for inquiring about Tian Xiaoge's whereabouts and condition was something that had been put out a few months ago by the clan patriarch. A few people had wanted to take it, but were rejected by the patriarch due to him finding them unsuitable.
But when Tian Han applied for it, the patriarch was surprised. He had his ideas about Tian Han and how his intentions were before. Though these few days he and his father had mellowed out and the troubles caused by them had almost disappeared.
It also helped the fact that guest elder Jigou had not appeared for a long time, thus there was nothing extra troubling the patriarch.
Having gotten this mission, the two of them set out to the Frozen Cloud sect and reached there in a day. After getting there, they were stopped by the sect's disciples.
Tian Chu could clearly perceive the hostility in their eyes, and Tian Han was the same. Not just that, but Tian Han also mentioned that a few of his special spirit tools that were used for investigating were all giving off weird warnings.
Still, since they had the official letter of the patriarch of the Tian clan branch, the sect disciples had to let them in. Once in the sect, they were brought to a more restrained area and were made to wait for an entire day.
Tian Chu could feel that it was a rude thing to do, seeing as how she was still a nascent soul realm cultivator. The Frozen Cloud sect would never do something like this, usually. The two of them could tell that there was clear hostility in the air and a lot of the members looked at each other with suspicion and enmity.
It was a tense atmosphere, but also where Tian Han showed his abilities.
'The man really managed to butter his way out, huh…' Lin Wu was surprised.
