Rise Of The Worm Sovereign-Chapter 1017 Capable Subordinates And Progress
Lin Wu listened to the questions of his subordinates one by one, most being similar to what the Emeraldine Sky Light Monk Ape had asked.
In general, all of them were wondering about the same thing.
Where had Lin Wu gone and what was he doing?
Cang Ci had been in charge of Tieba city and knew that Lin Wu's avatar was safely cultivating there. Thus she wasn't worried that something had happened to Lin Wu. All she could think was that he was doing something unknown to them,
"I'll tell you all then, I was in the Hu Continent." Lin Wu revealed.
"The Hu continent!?" Cang Ci and The Emeraldine Sky Light Monk ape had shocked expressions.
The Head Emeraldine Monkey and the Club Tailed Lizard had confused expressions though. After all, unlike Cang Ci who was in charge of the Tieba city had was controlling a lot of intelligence, and the Emeraldine Sky Light monk ape, who was always reading and learn, the other two didn't have the information.
The head Emeraldine Monkey knew quite a lot of things, but it was still limited to the functioning of the Millennium Forest kingdom and the tomb. As for the Club Tailed Lizard, she was even weaker in the scope of knowledge.
She was mostly involved in taking care of the minor matters of the tomb and spent most of her time inside.
After her children had grown a bit, she basically had nothing to do. They didn't need her to take care of them and would wander around the forest doing whatever they could.
She on the other hand, didn't have much cultivation talent and had barely reached the Adult Soul Stage of the Nascent soul realm.
The Adult Soul Stage of the Nascent soul realm was now the average cultivation base of most of Lin Wu's subordinates and servants. There were several who had reached the Dao Shell realm and many more that were close to it.
Lin Wu didn't mind their lack of their information though and decided to explain it anyway.
"Yes, the Hu continent. It is located West of the Long Continent, and one of the three continents of Ming Dao world." Lin Wu replied.
"You really managed to reach there master? I thought Tian Guisha said the teleportation arrays aren't stable?" Cang Ci had been in charge of collaborating between the ghost of Tian and the tomb, thus she knew a bit more.
"Yes, I fixed the arrays and have somewhat linked them with the tomb. We can now head to the Hu continent." Lin Wu answered.
~Gasp~
Cang Ci was surprised by this as she knew the implications of this.
The Emeraldine Sky Light Monk ape was also intrigued and was already having several thoughts.
The other two could only stand there, not knowing what to do. It couldn't be helped as they weren't exactly involved in matters like these. They didn't have ambition either, thus it didn't occur to them why this information was valuable.
"Since master has come after more than a year, I'm assuming you wish to expand your influence there too?" The Emeraldine Sky Light Monk ape questioned.
"Wish?" Lin Wu chuckled. "I've already started on that aspect." He answered.
"I see… I should have expected it." The beast nodded his head.
"How is the progress going master? Do you need help? I've got a few good seedlings among the people we recruited in the Shadow Legion. They are not just strong but also smart." Cang Ci quickly said.
"I do. In fact, I already have a preliminary plan ready." Lin Wu stated before taking out a crystal slip. "Take a look, these are the materials that are in abundance there as well as the materials that they lack." He spoke.
Upon hearing this, Cang Ci already knew what to do. She quickly went through the crystal slip and picked up on the important materials. She then cross-referenced them with the materials and resources present in the Long Continent.
In less than twenty minutes, Cang Ci had another list ready.
"Here you go master, these are the resources and materials that will be the best for us to trade. The profits should be good enough for us to generate a steady stream of income and reinvest in increasing the production." Cang Ci very professionally said.
Lin Wu was impressed by this subordinate of his and knew that it was a good choice to recruit her. She had more than doubled the scope of Tieba city's scope and also involved the Ghost of Tian in it.
Combining all of them, it wouldn't be wrong to say that they might be the second strongest power in the Long Continent now. Of course, the first was none other than Lin Wu himself. 𝑓𝔯𝑒e𝘸e𝘣𝓷𝘰ѵe𝚕.c૦𝙢
Still, even if this was the case, Cang Ci was weak cultivation wise. But this was only compared to Lin Wu and Tian Guisha. She was at the Dao Shell realm and could easily compare to several talented heirs of the top clans.
'All this is good, most of the items are already stockpiled and the rest can be prepared. Hmm… I'll need to establish a proper supply line between the two continents first.' Lin Wu read the jade slip and prepared his own set of plans.
After ten minutes of easement, Lin Wu spoke again.
"This is good. But I'll also need to make a more efficient supply line between the two continents. The current Teleportation Relay will not be good for the long term." Lin Wu stated. "I can take the first few shipments myself, but the latter ones will need others to transport it." He added.
"Of course, master. I'll make sure to train the juniors well." Cang Ci replied.
"Mmm, you'll also have someone else too collaborate with from the Hu continent. They'll be our direct line to invest there." Lin Wu spoke, surprising her.
"Oh? If they can do something like this, they must be important right?" Cang Ci was greatly interested.
"You can say that… it's the tenth direct heir of the Hu clan." Lin Wu revealed.
"WHAT!?" Cang CI was now absolutely astonished.
After all, she knew what the Hu clan was like and their influence in the Hu continent. Having spent time at Tian Guisha's hideout, she knew that the Hu clan had taken a different route than the Long clan.
They had become the overlord of the entire continent and ruled it with imperial might!
A direct heir was no different from a prince.
And since the Hu continent had no sects or other kingdoms, the power of a prince was far greater than normal. She couldn't even compare it with others, since there was no other example at all.
"Yes. He's become a subordinate too, and will be carrying out my will there." Lin Wu confirmed. "Soon you two will have to work together. I'll bring you over the in the next visit." He added.
"It will be my pleasure, master." Cang Ci composed herself and cupped her hands.
"Now then… what else has happened in the time I was gone?" Lin Wu questioned.
While he could take a look at the reports in the system, he felt it would be a loss to not listen to a direct report from his subordinates.
'It feels a lot more proper…' Lin Wu thought, though it might have just been his vanity.
"The fights between the Shadow Legion and the united powers of the Long continent are going well. I've maintained a 55:45 ratio for the wins between both sides." Cang Ci reported first.
"That's good. We need to keep them on their toes for now, only then will they be ready for the final step." Lin Wu was content with this.
The next to speak was the Head Emeraldine Monkey.
"The developmental progress of the Millennium Forest is going well. Two new arenas have been established and our revenue has increased by ten times. We are also getting requests from several kingdoms to rent the arenas for their own tournaments.
Thus we were thinking of adding an arena, especially for renting out." The beast reported.
"Hmmm.. That's good. And your idea of adding another one is good too… though, you can add two more instead of just one." Lin Wu suggested.
"We shall do that then, master." The Head Emeraldine Monkey replied.
After this, the Emeraldine Sky Light Monk ape also had some interesting information to share.
"Two months ago we got some visitors from the Frost Fox Clan." He informed.
"Oh?" Lin Wu recalled the time when he had invited them to stay over. f𝐫ee𝘄ℯ𝚋no𝐯𝐞l.c𝘰m
He had liked their cooking, as well as thought that they would be good over all in administrative works.
"They said, they've decided to work for master as well and hoped that he would guide them." The Emeraldine Sky Light Monk ape stated.
"I see… and where are they now?" Lin Wu asked.
"Since we didn't know when master was going to return, I decided to let them enter the Sky Bright Daoist's Trials." The beast answered.
