Rise Of The Worm Sovereign

Chapter 845 Lian Dajian's Aggressive Decision

Lin Wu's words of warning were taken rather seriously by Lian Dajian and Elder Ruanjian. As for Lian Xiaojian, anything that came from Lin Wu was already taken as gospel.

They had already left the Millennium forest and didn't speak a word after having left. The information presented to them was simply too sensitive, after all.

'We need to check this… there should be some signs that might be present. If the Shadow calamity has already awakened, as King Lin Wu has said, then we need to keep a staunch eye out.' Lian Dajian thought to himself.

He could understand what a threat of this level meant. If it was not for the fact that Lin Wu had specifically told them not to tell anyone else, unless he approved of them, he would have directly gone to the Long clan.

The Long clan had the greatest duty of being a guardian clan and ensure the safety of the world along with the other two clans. A threat like this should be made aware to them.

'But who knows if they might get affected too…' Lian Dajian thought to himself.

But after a while, another idea appeared in his mind.

'No, wait… King Lin Wu should definitely know the Long clan would be a good party to inform. Perhaps he has already done that?' Lian Dajian thought to himself before recalling that the Long clan had also sent an envoy to the Millennium forest.

'Maybe I should confirm if they had talked about it… if they have then it will be fine…' Lian Dajian thorough to himself.

The rest of the journey went by like a blur as the three of them continued to ponder on the matters at hand. Then there was also the fact that Lian Xiaojian had just broken through and had also awakened his physique.

He needed to get used to both and was also focusing on that.

Lian Dajian was in a similar position and wondered if the effects of the technique Lin Wu used on him were already working. He certainly felt a little less anxious than before, so he thought that it really was.

A few days later, Lian Dajian and the rest had returned to the Lian Clan.

"The patriarch is back!" The news quickly spread among the elders of the clan.

After all, the patriarch leaving without informing them was very unusual. Thus they were wondering why he had done so, now that he was back.

The doors of the great hall of the Lian clan opened and Lian Dajian walked in with Elder Ruanjian and Lian Xiaojian.

"Greetings Patriarch!"

"Welcome Patriarch!"

Various words of formality were spoken upon the entry of the patriarch. But soon, they all noticed a new person there.

'Who's that?' They couldn't help but wonder about Lian Xiaojian.

After all, he looked vastly different from before. But they didn't ask right away, waiting for the patriarch to speak first. Lian Dajian nodded at them before silently walking to the head seat.

A strange silence was present during this brief period of time. The elders also found things to be rather strange since even Elder Ruanjian and the new man accompanying them had serious expressions.

The throne lightly shook as the heavy body of Lian Dajian landed on it. The fat man looked at his elders and felt a little melancholic.

'All this I've built… my clan… my people… all can be gone?' Lian Dajian just couldn't get the threat out of his mind.

His guts were telling him that this was something he simply could not take lightly. And he trusted his guts the most, as they had brought him where he was in his life.

"Elders…" Lian Dajian spoke, prompting all elders to look towards him respectfully. "I have decided something."

"What is it Patriarch?" The elders asked, feeling nervous.

"I have decided… that it is time to expand. Expand more… expand aggressively." Lian Dajian stated.

"We are already doing that though, patriarch. Our businesses are flourishing and have a stable growth rate." One of the high elders said.

"I know our business are doing that, but that is only for our current ones. I'm thinking about new ventures." Lian Dajian stated.

"And what might that be, patriarch." The elders wondered what the patriarch desired.

If he was this direct about something like business, then they knew for sure that he must have some great idea.

"I want the Lian clan to establish our own information and intelligence gathering department." Lian Dajian spoke, making many elders raise their brows. "And I'm not talking about our… Back pavilion. That is merely for our private matters. I'm talking about a full blown organization." He explained.

"This… Patriarch, if we do this, it won't be easy. From the Long clan to the kingdoms, nearly everyone will resist this." One of the elders spoke.

"Oh, I don't care about that. They can resist all they want. This will be an absolute order." Lian Dajian left no place for a debate.

The shadow calamity was dangerous, and he couldn't investigate it directly. If he got someone to specifically look for it, things might go like Lin Wu had said. They might get in even greater trouble.

But if he made it so that they were not just collecting information about the shadow calamity, but everything?

Then things might be a bit simpler.

As for the opposition from the other powers? That was a joke when it came to the end of this world.

The Lian clan wasn't so mighty that they could just leave the Ming Dao world. If they wanted to continue living on, even if they might suffer a bit, they had to do this.

"It shall be done then, Patriarch." The elders responded in unison.

"Mmm… and another thing. From today onwards, the millennium forest is our official ally. Make sure that no one offends them, or their king. Anyone that does so will be dealt with me personally!" Lian Dajian said, his eyes gleaming with a sense of pressure.
