Rise Of The Worm Sovereign

Lin Wu smirked, seeing that he had accomplished his goal rather quickly.

"Greetings, K-King of the Millennium forest." Kai Li suppressed her fear quickly and ignored the pressure that she felt.

Lin Wu couldn't help but raise a brow seeing this.

'She certainly got some grit…' He thought.

"Greeting, I am the King of the Millennium forest, Lin Wu."

"So it is king Lin Wu, please take my respects." Lian Xiaojian cupped his head and bowed, though with his fat ball like body, the bow didn't seem like a bow and more like a curve.

The other two did the same as was the etiquette. They would have been a bit disinclined to do something like this for any other king, but Lin Wu's mere presence told them that he was not one of the weak kings that merely had the title and no power.

"Now then, I was informed you wanted to meet me for some reason?" Lin Wu asked.

He truly didn't know what their reasoning behind it was and was sure that it wasn't just confirming that he existed.

"We do have a few reasons, King Lin Wu." Lian Xiaojian replied.

"And what are they?" Lin Wu asked.

"Well… the first was to see who could be behind the rise of the Millennium forest. Forgive me but… it is completely unprecedented." Lian Xiaojian stated.

"I understand." Lin Wu nodded his head.

"Then there is the other reason that we had." Lian Xiaojian added.

"And what might that be?" Lin Wu inquired.

"We have a few business opportunities for you." This time Kai Li spoke.

Kai Li and Lian Xiaojian had discussed a little about it, and Lian Xiaojian had decided to leave the lead in this case to her after seeing Lin Wu. Originally he was to lead it all, but they were still unsure of Lin Wu and his disposition.

But seeing his form and power, Lian Xiaojian truly thought that it would be better to let someone more experience take the lead. Elder Ruan had the same opinion and was fine with Kai Li doing the talking.

Lin Wu's eyes gazed upon the woman with great interest. He had seen her actions in the forest and even knew that she had gone to see the arena. If anything, she interested him more than the other two Lian clan members.

"Go ahead." Lin Wu spoke.

"We've seen the millennium forest and the great changes that have happened in it. The agricultural developments are certainly impressive and the inheritance ground even more so." Kai Li said. "We have heard the conditions to access the Sky Bright Daoist's trials and guess that respected King wants better trade and some economic transactions between the kingdoms and other powers?" she asked.

"That will be correct." Lin Wu responded.

"We have a way to make the Millennium forest gain great profits if the king is willing to make a deal with us." Kai Li stated.

"Oh? Is that so…" Lin Wu spoke as he gazed at the three of them.

Lian Xiaojian slightly squirmed under the pressure, while Elder Ruanjian seemed tense. Only Kai Li was faring better, but Lin Wu could still see her trembling hands.

"Very well… I can consider it. If… you have a full outline and plan for it." Lin Wu said after thinking for a bit.

"We already have it prepared!" Kai Li hurriedly said, anxious that Lin Wu might change his words.

She knew clearly that the beast in front of him wasn't stupid and the actions he had already taken in the forest were enough to change its face. Even without them, she was sure that the Millennium forest would gain a lot of fortune in the coming years.

Just the Sky Bright Daoist's trials alone would be enough to bring in considerable resources not to mention the rest of the treasure pile that the millennium forest was sitting on that they didn't even know about.

'I'd bet my soul, if there wasn't some great treasure below this place. Otherwise there is no way the beasts would progress this fast and the spirit Qi would rise to the same level as that of our clan.' Kai Li thought to herself.

In all scenarios she could think of, the millennium forest had a great chance or rising. Even if some other powers were greedy and tried to take over it forcefully, they'd had to pay a great price.

And that price had risen by many times in her mind, simply by seeing the power that Lin Wu was demonstrating right now. Kai Li didn't even need to know for sure just how strong Lin Wu was or what his cultivation base was. Her instincts were screaming at her that they were enough to wipe out a few kingdoms and sect.

Not to mention, there was now an alliance between the ten sects around the millennium forest, the three kingdoms, and even one of the top sects, the Frozen Cloud sect.

Just the backing of the Frozen Cloud sect alone was enough to make many people think twice of doing anything to the Millennium forest.

But with all the red flags that Kai Li could see, she also saw the gold flags of fortune waving in the distance. Despite the mysterious of the Millennium forest, she knew that this place might be the biggest opportunity she would have to rise in the world.

'I'll bet everything I have on this…' Kai Li thought to herself with determination.

Lin Wu didn't know what the woman was thinking, but was happy that they had the plan ready.

'At least they are efficient. Their image as a great business clan is not for just show I suppose.' Lin Wu thought to himself.

"Alright, show me the plan then." Lin Wu ordered.

"Here it is!" Kai Li immediately took out the jade slip within which the plan and its condition were written in.

"I appreciate the promptness." Lin Wu said as he glanced at her.
