Chapter 899: Causing More Panic
Yang Ranran was unaware that Lin Wu had just put another heap of duties on his head.
“Haaaaaaaaa~” Lin Wu let out a long yawn and glanced at the multiple screens floating in his field of vision.
Each of the screens showed either some person, or multiple persons from all around Tieba city. These were the people that were important and Lin Wu was fishing for more information from them.
‘Nothing interesting is happening. They are simply stuck with the chaos I sowed.’ Lin Wu thought to himself.
The lords of the Tieba city had basically ended up putting a majority of their human resources into monitoring situations all over the south. The Zhan Kingdom and the Peony plains kingdom were their main targets and the thing they were looking for was none other than Lin Wu.
“Hmm… if they are looking for this, why don’t I just give them exactly what they want? I’ll get a meal as well.” Lin Wu said with a chuckle.
He quickly pulled up the map and picked out a few favorable cities for the next trip.
“After Zhan Kingdom, it is time for the Peony Plains kingdom. After all… I did promise I would come after both of them. Hehe~” Lin Wu laughed.
~tremble~
The ground shook as Lin Wu quickly dug through it. Since the tunnel was already made, it didn’t take Lin Wu that long to reach the border of the Peony Plains kingdom. It was located next to the Zhan kingdom, after all.
The place that he was targeting first was a town. There was nothing special about it and it was as generic as a town would be in this area.
One hour later, the town was no more.
“One down, three more to go.” Lin Wu made his way to the next location.
This time, the target was a city, and they were quite prepared for an invasion.
“Hoho, seems like they did take my words seriously.” Lin Wu could see two Dao Shell realm cultivators posted in the city, along with tens of Nascent soul realm experts.
And not just that, but the city also had its defensive formation array strengthened by quite a bit. Still, all this was nothing to Lin Wu as the system easily overrode the array and allowed him stealthy entry into the city.
The set of events after that could be predicated easily.
Lin Wu simply appeared in the middle of the city where the town center was and ate a part of the building along with the Dao Shell realm cultivator that lived there. This alone was enough to panic the entire city and send it into high alert.
The experts posted here reacted and quickly got to attacking Lin Wu, but then hundreds of sticky threads were shot out of Lin Wu’s tentacles, immobilizing them all. And when the second Dao Shell realm expert appeared, he was terrified.
Lin Wu had covered the entire city in the sticky threads and the Dao Shell realm expert could do nothing but try to escape. And even that failed as Lin Wu simply slammed him with his entire body.
With the weight of Lin Wu’s body, even a Dao Treading realm expert would be injured significantly, not to mention a Dao Shell realm expert. The man was incapacitated and became an easy meal for Lin Wu, only adding to his spirit Qi storage.
With two locations down, Lin Wu only had two more left.
But at this time, news about his appearance had already spread around the kingdom. The second Dao Shell realm expert had intentionally delayed so that he could send a distress message.
Unfortunately, the army of the Peony Plains kingdom couldn’t compete against Lin Wu’s speed. Even if the army was composed of cultivators, their combined speed would greatly hold them back.
And by the time they reached the city which was now dead, Lin Wu had already finished the third location, which was another town. The army of the Peony plains kingdom diverted to the third location and by the time they reached it, the fourth settlement had been erased as well.
The army of the peony plains broke down seeing this, and their morale reached rock bottom. They despaired at the thought that their kingdom might be erased overnight if this pace was kept up.
But much to their surprise, that didn’t happen. The monster simply stopped and disappeared.
This greatly confused as well as scared the Peony Plains kingdom. They thought that the monster might be resting to digest its ‘meal’ and wanted to get rid of it in that time. They contacted the Zhan kingdom, as well as all the nearby powers for support.
This time they had better ‘proof’.
Lin Wu had allowed a part of his appearance to be captured through a recording tool. If he didn’t do that, the system would have just blocked all communication jade slip transmission in the area.
Thus, even if someone recorded him, they wouldn’t be able to send it to their allies.
The recording soon sent the nearby powers in a tizzy and even one of the top sects ended up receiving it.
In the Dark Plains sect, an emergency meeting was organized.
“What is it patriarch?” The elders of the sect were confused.
They looked at each other for answers, but none of them knew the reason why they were called here in the first place.
“We have a big problem.” The high elder of the sect spoke.
“What might be so big as to call all of us?” they asked.
“Yeah, I was in seclusion, too. And so was Elder Bi Kun.” A few elders expressed their displeasure.
It was at this moment that an extremely old looking man opened his eyes. He was sitting at the head of the hall. His head was bald and a hat covered most of it. Even his face was barren with nary a hair.
“I’m afraid a disaster is upon us. The reports from Zhan Kingdom and Peony Plains kingdom… they were all true.”
