Chapter 835: A Metal Flute
If audio player doesn't work, press Stop then Play button again
The Patriarch of the Lian clan was certainly pinning his hopes on the flute. As much as he was ready to do anything to ensure his survival, he didn't want to submit to someone else. Especially someone with an unknown background like Lin Wu.
Lian Dajian was an experienced man and knew when and when not to retreat. He also knew how to forge alliances and when to end them. Perhaps he might not have been this wary if there was a human in front of him.
But that was not so. Rather, what was in front of him was a beast of unknown origin and age. Facing the beast, the experienced man felt like a toddler trying to lie to an ancestor. It was simply absurd.
'Not to mention it feels like he can see through me with ease. I'm having a hard time maintaining my composure. There is just a certain level of weakness I need to show him, but it might just be pushed beyond that.' Lian Dajian thought to himself.
It had taken him a lot of effort to decided to come here. The Lian clan had truly exhausted all of their avenues and now this was the only one left.
'If even the flute doesn't work, then patriarch might have to join young master as well. Young master has been away for three years and now news of his results have been given to us meaning that he might still be in the same situation as before.
If even three years isn't enough, then patriarch certainly wouldn't be able to last that long.' Elder Ruanjian had his own worries as well.
He was throughly an elder of the Lian clan and worried about it. The devotion he had for the clan was rare to see. Even if he might not show it on his face, this was the reason why Lian Dajian trusted the man so much.
In fact, it could be said that Lian Dajian trusted elder Ruanjian more than he trusted his wives or children. It was also Elder Ruanjian's words and convincing that he had finally chosen to come here.
If not for that, perhaps he would have stayed at the clan and continued to do it all himself, eventually dying in the process.

While it may seem like the Lian clan was progressing steadily, it was not so. It did seem like that on the surface, but this was all due to the delicate balance maintained by the patriarch. Once Lian Dajian died, there was no saying what the elders and his heirs might do.
While their profit driven mindset made it so that the clan continued to prosper, it was also the same thing that could become their undoing. Lian Dajian could easily see his children getting into open conflicts and the elders spurring them on.
Thus, it wasn't like he could abdicate his position and assign someone there either.
After all, Lian Dajian didn't just rule with his business sense, but also his power. He was a proper Dao Treading realm expert and would be able to go toe to toe against most experts of this world.
Though he was a bit unsure about the beast in front of him, since he couldn't even tell his cultivation base. Lian Dajian was certainly told that Lin Wu had admitted to being at the Dao Shell realm, but that seemed too weak to be true.
'It is certainly a tiger pretending to be a pig… or in his case a serpent pretending to be a worm,' Lian Dajian thought.
And while Lian Dajian was having all these thoughts, the system had just finished its assessment.
Nearly an hour had passed and the system's task was over.

TARGET: Unknown Metal Flute

INFO: According to the system's analysis with the data banks as the basis, it has been determined that the flute is a type of a Resonant Warning tool. The method of activation is simply by breaking it similar to a talisman or other such single use tools.
This will trigger its counterpart to break as well, alarming the owner of the tool. The system's inference is that it establishes a temporary communication link between the two parties and will alert the original owner about the location of the flute.

Seeing this information, Lin Wu was a bit surprised.
'No wonder they didn't find anyway to make the flute work. It was not meant to be played in the first place. Though I guess it is also faulty product design, and misinformation. Why would the specification that the flute needed to be broken not be passed on?' Lin Wu had several questions about it.
Though he was now starting to believe that perhaps whoever was the founder of the Lian clan was either too careless or that he actually didn't know how to activate the flute himself.
There were too many uncertainties, but Lin Wu knew one thing for sure.
'There is no way I can let someone from a higher realm get involved. Not when I'm progressing with my plans so well. And seeing as they didn't know the actual method of activation, there is a chance that the original owner in the immortal world might not know of these descendants.
There is a chance that he might just come to check in. But there is also a chance that he might get greedy at the same time. The Taiji Celestial's tomb brought in the Skull God who was certainly many time stronger than this ancestor of theirs.
If even the Skull god can be tempted, there is no way others wouldn't be tempted either,' Lin Wu concluded.
But after thinking it all, Lin Wu also didn't want to just get rid of the flute. Not only would it rouse suspicion of the Patriarch Lian Dajian, but it would also be a bit of a waste.
'Hmm… perhaps there is another way we can go about this?' Lin Wu thought to himself as a new idea presented to him.
