Rise Of The Worm Sovereign - Chapter 1084: Knocking On Door Of The Gui Clan

Lin Wu was already thinking of all the ways that he could pull the Gui clan in the fold with him. He had already done that with the Long clan and the Hu clan, and as such he didn’t think it would be that hard.

‘The only thing will be to trick— no, convince the guardian spirit as well.’ Lin Wu thought to leftism.

The guardian spirit was the only thing that could realistically threaten Lin Wu and as such it was important to get it on board with him. Though having talked with the other two guardian spirits, Lin Wu didn’t think it would be as problematic.

‘They did say the Gui Spirit is much more passive.’ Lin Wu remembered.

The clan spirit was why the Gui clan functioned as it did. It wasn’t too ambitious and did not extend its rule over the entire continent. Instead it chose to let the other minor clans and powers to rule their own cities and settlements. The Gui clan would only do business with them as the top clan.

Perhaps this was also why the Gui Continent also had the least amount of conflicts among the three in the Ming Dao world. And also why they mostly went unnoticed.

But that didn’t change the fact that they were one of the top three clans of the Ming Dao world and held the most power.

If they were threatened, they would use their all and lash back at those who offended them. It had happened in the past and it could happen again.

This point was also what had been striking Lin Wu’s thoughts.

‘For the Gui Clan to go into lockdown suddenly for nearly a year… there must be something significant that happened.’ Lin Wu reckoned. ‘Otherwise, it doesn’t make sense for them to do this. And even if they did, they shouldn’t have sealed all communication channels like that.’ ~DING~

NOTIFICATION: The host is 100 kilometers from the target location!

And just as Lin Wu was thinking all that, the notification appeared.

“Guess I’ll get to learn all that in person.” Lin Wu muttered and looked back at Tim. “Don’t cause any trouble, we want to appear ‘normal’… as much as we can.” He warned.

“Okay,” Tim said with a little screech.

“If you behave, you’ll get snacks. I’m sure the Gui clan has some unique food too.” Lin Wu threw in a treat.

“ALRIGHT!” Tim said with a lot more enthusiasm. n)-01n

With this secured, Lin Wu locked onto the target which was hidden deep inside the unassuming glacier. If not for the fact that Lin Wu had absolute confirmation that the Gui Clan was down there, he would have never expected it. ~shua~

Lin Wu even used his Radiation Perception to check and realized that it would get too muddled to see. And when he focused a bit more, he sensed some peculiar things.

“That thick ice and Qi makes it harder to make it out. There’s even some additional radiation mixed in there in a couple of places,” Lin Wu muttered to himself, as he checked it all out.

~Whoosh~

Lin Wu flew over and finally landed at the top of the ice dome. It didn’t move even slightly under his weight, which just showed how tough it was.

‘I’m sure there’s many more formations strengthening this.’ Lin Wu wondered how he should proceed from here.

He knew he could easily just drill into there, but that wouldn’t exactly be nice. It was more likely for the Gui clan to take that as an attack and retaliate. “Let’s see… Time for some good ol’ knocking then.” Lin Wu said before raising his tail and tapping on the glacier.

Of course, his taps when compared to his size were more like hammering.

~BOOM~BOOM~BOOM~

Inside the ice dome, the Gui clan had an abrupt awakening. “What is that noise?” The Gui clan members were shocked.

“Is it from the war preparation?” Some of them wondered.

The ancestor and the patriarch of the Gui Clan had announced that a war was near and they needed to be ready. And as such most of the clan had been mobilized according to that, with many members running around frantically preparing for all that was to come.

But they had never expected a voice to be heard next.

~SCREECH~

~STATIC~

“Ahem! Mic check, testing, testing… 1,2,3… testing, testing.” A strange voice that bordered in inhuman was heard throughout the Gui clan. Above the surface, Lin Wu looked at the system screen.

“Is the link to the formations working?” Lin Wu asked the system.

~DING~

ANSWER: Formation link successful. A communication channel has been established.

“Good. Now to call them.” Lin Wu said with a smile and gave a few knocks.

~KNOCK~ KNOCK~

“Hello, I am Lin Wu, the king of the Emeraldine Legion. Can the patriarch and elders of the Gui Clan please respond?” Lin Wu said in a polite enough time. “I am standing outside. Can you please lift the dome? It is kinda cold outside.” Lin Wu’s words were a shock to every member of the Gui Clan. They could not understand what was happening, but the loud knocking sounds coming from the roof were certainly concerning to them. Concerning enough, that Lin Wu caught the attention of the higher ups of the Gui clan.

And this was exactly what he wanted.

“What is happening?” The Grand Elder of the Gui clan looked at the Patriarch and the Ancestor.

Currently, the higher ups of the Gui clan were sitting in a large hall, and had been planning the upcoming war. But they had never expected the arrival of a guest above their clan.

“Check it.” The ancestor ordered. “For someone to call us like this… They are not simple.” The old woman understood.

“Yes!” The patriarch nodded his head and activated the formations, creating a formation screen in front of them.

~SHUA~

And on the screen, they all saw the image of a large creature that was a mix of beauty and terror.
