Rise Of The Worm Sovereign

The feast of the beasts continued through the night nicely, but then it was rudely interrupted by Lin Wu's shout.

"WHAT?!" Lin Wu shouted.

The beasts all stopped what they were doing and looked at Lin Wu, wondering what the problem was.

"What happened, master?" The Deep Earth Emeraldine Mole questioned.

But Lin Wu did not respond to him, instead he continued to talk to himself.

"What do you mean, they killed the disciples?" Lin Wu asked. "And what is Yun Bai doing?"

Hearing those two sentences allowed the beasts to guess who Lin Wu might have been talking to. There weren't many choices other than Wang Xiong after all. Lin Wu talked to the man for about five minute getting the gist of the situation.

'The people of the Frozen Cloud Sect truly like to fuck themselves over, don't they?' Lin Wu thought to himself as he analyzed everything that Wang Xiong had told him.

"Is it a new problem?" The Emeraldine Horn Beetle questioned.

"Mm…" Lin Wu nodded his head. "We are needed at the Frozen Cloud sect."

"What exactly happened?" the Slim arm ape king questioned.

~Sigh~

"It's like this…" Lin Wu said before he started to explain the situation to the beasts.

He would be needing their help with this, thus it was best they knew about it as well.

The Frozen Cloud sect's three divisions were now in all out conflict, with some of the elders fighting directly out in the open. Not only that, but some of the disciples in the Frozen Brook division that Wang Xiong belonged to were killed too.

The Frozen Cliff division had given up on any semblance of facades and were showing their aggression. They even claimed that the disciples they killed were traitors to the sect and were involved with other powers trying to take over the sect.

They even went as far as to claim that Wang Xiong was not worthy of being the chief disciples and was accused of being a traitor as well. They were all calling for his imprisonment, while some wanted to execute him right away.

The battles between the disciples were already common, and leaving their respective territories meant that they would end up fighting. Even those that belonged to the neutral camp, the Frozen Plains division, were pulled in as some of their members were heavily injured.

According to Wang Xiong, they were injured by the spies of the Frozen Cliff division that had hid within his camp and had been pretending to be their members. This had allowed them to pin the blame on the Frozen Brook division.

"Isn't Yun Bai an influential member of the Frozen Cloud Sect? Why isn't he doing anything?" The Slim arm ape king questioned.

"That is the issue… those elders managed to learn of his restrictions and have sealed him." Lin Wu replied.

"What?!" The Slim arm ape king exclaimed. "How can they restrain someone as strong as him? And what about their sect patriarch? How can he let such chaos in the sect go unchecked?" he added.

"That's the thing… the patriarch of the Frozen cloud sect is away and cannot be contacted. Those Frozen Cliff division elders made use of his absence to begin their rebellion." Lin Wu answered.

"How can a sect's patriarch leave his sect like this? Where did he get that it's so important?" The Twin Lights Liger King questioned next.

"He was apparently called for an important meeting among the top sects. It was convened by the Long clan, thus everyone invited has to be present there compulsorily." Lin Mu answered.

Hearing all this, the Twin Lights Liger King and the Slim Arm Ape King both felt that something sinister was brewing. The Emeraldine Sky Light Monk ape that had been silent all this while finally spoke up at this moment.

"It would be better if we act soon, my king. It is also your duty as the senior of Wang Xiong to help him when he requests it. Master would have done the same too." The Emeraldine Sky Light Monk Ape said in a calm tone.

"Mmm… I know. I was going to help him, but before that we need to plan it a bit." Lin Wu said, finding the situation a bit complex.

He knew that jumping into the fray without any intel was a bad idea. He wanted to ask Wang Xiong more, but had already heard that the man was in the dark for now, too.

'Even Wang Xiong is unable to leave his territory, while Yun Bai is sealed within his peak. Those elders certainly are resourceful and have someone helping them if they can restrain Yun Bai there.

Since there is no way to communicate outside of their areas, the Frozen Cliff Division has the upper hand now. They only need to get rid of Wang Xiong and his subordinates, and that's all they would need to make the elders of the Frozen Brook division change sides.

After all, they would do anything to survive. And then by the time the patriarch returns, it would be too late. The supreme elder is looking to usurp his position anyway and according to the rules of their sect they can challenge the position of the patriarch as long as a majority of the elders support him.' Lin Wu analyzed.

Wang Xiong had explained to Lin Wu as much as he could and got him up to speed. But Lin Wu still contacted him and asked for a few more details he needed. The system got to recording all the information as well and was already formulating scenarios.

"Ugh! This Wang Xiong should have just told me all this earlier than it would not have been thus much of an issue." Lin Wu said to himself.

Lin Wu's mind ran at great speed as he thought of all that he could do and how he could do it.

'The Weiyuan chamber should definitely be involved in all this, so getting some intel on them will be the first step,' Lin Wu determined.

With the first step in his mind, Lin Wu now knew what to do. Though Lin Wu was going to head to the Frozen Cloud sect eventually, he knew that he needed current real time information from there.

"Time to contact those two… they will finally come in use." Lin Wu muttered to himself.

"System, contact Tian Han and Tian Chu." Lin Wu ordered.

~DING~

ACTIVATING COMMUNICATION LINK: Tian Han, Tian Chu

"Master?" The voices of Tian Han and Tian Chu could be heard and those two could hear each other as well.

"I need you two to do something." Lin Wu spoke.

"please tell us," Tian Chu quickly responded.

"Y-yes…" Tian Han replied as well, his voice stuttering a bit.

It was evident that he was still a bit shaken from Lin Wu's power and those memories would trouble him.

"I want you to go to the Frozen Cloud sect and get me information about what is happening there. Can you do that?" Lin Wu stated.

"Umm… I should be able to get the permission to leave the clan." Tian Han replied.

"I'll do it, don't worry master!" Tian Chu stated with confidence.
