Lin Wu smirked to himself as Wang Xiong had played right into his hand.
'This will make upgrading the Trojan rather easy. I'll add in a few things as a bonus too, just to make it look a bit more appealing…' Lin Wu thought to himself.
He looked at Wang Xiong and spoke, "come close."
"Yes, Senior." Wang Xiong came to stand close to Lin Wu, who then lifted his tail and extended a very thin spike out of it.
The spike was thin compared to Lin Wu himself, but compared to Wang Xiong's size, it still looked like a spear tip instead.
"Now then… don't move." Lin Wu warned and touched Wang Xiong's forehead with it.
~gulp~
Ye Jin swallowed down her saliva, feeling nervous. After all, Wang Xiong was her Dao companion that she loved and seeing him stand so close to a large beast like Lin Wu was terrifying.
Even if she knew that Wang Xiong trusted the beast, she still had some hesitation.
~shua~
While she was thinking all this, she suddenly felt Wang Xiong's aura rising. He could also see that Lin Wu's tail seemed to be glowing and the glow was flowing towards Wang Xiong.
It looked like something was entering Wang Xiong's forehead, but she couldn't tell what. But a minute later, her eyes went wide.
"No way…" She gasped.
Lin Wu pulled back his tail and retracted the spike from Wang Xiong's head. The man opened his eyes as well, that now had a faint green glow to them. There was also a small green dot in the center of his forehead, but it was quickly disappearing.
~DING~
——
TROJAN UPDATE: Completed
SPECIAL SNOWFLAKE: Successfully implanted
Notification: The host's subordinate, Wang Xiong has been added to the formation's communication channel.
——
"Perfect…" Lin Wu muttered to himself.
Wang Xiong looked at himself and felt his cultivation base.
"I broke through? I BROKE THROUGH!" Wang Xiong exclaimed.
~clasp~
Ye Jin held Wang Xiong's shoulder, checked him directly to see if he was fine and what she had felt was real. Lin Wu narrowed his eyes at seeing this and secretly took note of it.
'Still a bit suspicious I see… doesn't matter, everyone will be the same once they get the Trojan…' Lin Wu thought to himself.
Ye Jin finally came to terms with her situation and understood that Wang Xiong had really broken through.
"Thank you senior! Thank you for helping me break through to the Adolescent Soul stage of the Nascent Soul realm." Wang Xiong said, feeling grateful.
"No, you deserved it. Also… that breakthrough is not your only reward." Lin Wu replied.
"Oh? What do you mean, senior?" Wang Xiong asked.
"Why don't you feel for yourself?" Lin Wu said with a chuckle.
Wang Xiong raised his brows, but then nodded his head. He closed his eyes and then felt a small set of memories appear in his mind. They explained to him about all the features that he now had, including being able to communicate directly with Lin Wu and the rest of the beasts in the Emeraldine legion.
Learning that Lin Wu had so many servants and subordinates at the nascent soul realm was shocking to Wang Xiong. While he had known that the number of Nascent soul realm beasts of the millennium forest had increased in the recent years, he was still in the dark about the others that had not appeared in the open.
"Wait… is that… Pei Jun and Tian Xiaoge?" Wang Xiong was stunned upon sensing his juniors.
"They managed to gain the inheritance as well." Lin Wu chimed in.
Hearing this, both Wang Xiong and Ye Jin's eyes lit up.
"They really succeeded?! Everyone thought that they had either died or something happened. We lost contact with them completely too…" Wang Xiong replied.
Hearing this, Lin Wu was a bit surprised as Pei Jun had not expressed anything like this when he talked to him.
'Did they forget? Or just get too lost in the trials?' Lin Wu wondered.
"They did succeed. Well… everyone did, just not for the same inheritance that you got." Lin Wu answered.
"What? There's more than one inheritance?" Wang Xiong was confused.
"Yes, there is…" Lin Wu then explained to him how he was lucky and managed to enter the tomb directly due to the token he had.
He also told him about the trials of the Sky bright Daoist and how they needed to be cleared before the Taiji Celestial's could be attempted. Feeling enlightened after this, Wang Xiong thanked his lucky stars.
"Being able to communicate with the others will be a godsend. Though how far can I communicate right now?" Wang Xiong asked.
"You'll probably need to go halfway before you can communicate with them without any effort. At this distance, you will need to use up some of your spirit Qi, if you want to talk to them." Lin Wu replied.
"I see… though I can feel their location too." Wang Xiong said, "and I can feel yours too… and others… there are so many!" he added as more and more information surged into his mind.
"Of course. Everyone that is our ally will be within our circle and everyone can feel each other's location. The communication link will allow everyone to be safer and be able to ask for help in times of trouble." Lin Wu stated.
Understanding the benefits of the new abilities, Wang Xiong was happy. But then an idea came to his mind, and he looked towards Ye Jin. His gaze lingered for a few seconds before he turned to Lin Wu.
"Senior, I have a request… can you…" Wang Xiong hesitated.
"Ahhahah! I know what you want. Don't worry, I was going to do it anyway." Lin Wu said.
Ye Jin was a bit confused by it at first, but then understood what Wang Xiong meant.
"Come here… child." Lin Wu said in a friendly tone.
Ye Jin hesitated and looked towards Wang Xiong, who nodded his head.. Suppressing the nervousness, Ye Jin finally took the next step and came to stand in front of Lin Wu as well.
