Chapter 465 - Reassurance
Most of the assumptions that Senior Xukong had made turned out to be true and Lin Mu was thankful it had not gone beyond what they had expected. If it truly did, then they would have been unable to do anything.
Thankfully now that they knew the situation at hand, they would be able to make a plan that was appropriate for it and it would hopefully work.
"Brother Lin Mu, Gu Yao has also reached the Dao Shell realm himself due to the support from all the resources of the cultivation sects and the blood sacrificial. Did you master tell if this will affect his ability to control others with the human controlling blood curse?" Wu Hei questioned.
"Yes. My master already thought of this and told me that even if Gu Yao reaches the Dao Shell realm, he would be limited in his controlling ability. We can roughly consider that he has about ten Dao Shell realm cultivators under his control for now.
And if he wants to control more, he would need a lot of blood essence to use the Human controlling blood curse to control those that are at the Dao Shell realm. But if he wants to do the same with those at the Dao Treading Realm, he would need to be at the Dao Treading realm as well." Lin Mu answered.Ñøv€l--ß1n hosted the premiere release of this chapter.
~phew~
"That means the top three sects are safe for now. They each have their respective Dao treading realm cultivators who will prevent them from being controlled." Wu Hei took a breath of relief.
"Indeed. But we can’t drop our guard here. There is still the wild card which is the Northern Tribes. What more information do you have on them?" Lin Mu asked.
"When Gu Yao controlled everyone in the city, there were many Hei corps members amongst them as well. With them being in his control, he was able to find the others who were not there and free. He quickly eliminated them and now barely five percent of all my people are left." Wu Hei said in a sorrowful tone.
Lin Mu felt anger rise within his heart as well, since he had some good relations with some of the people in there too.
"Who are the ones that are still left?" Lin Mu questioned.
~Sigh~
"Right now, there is Hei Wan and a few of the weaker members of the Hei corps left. Hei Wan had secret orders from me to escape with some documents if she felt we were a lost cause. She was to deliver them to the sects and the kingdom.
But back then, I did not know that Gu Yao had the ability to control so many people. That plan failed before it had even started. But still, due to that Hei Wan was not in the northern town at that time and was able to escape the massacre." Wu Hei answered.
~pat~pat~
"Don’t worry, we will not let their deaths go in vain. I swear upon my honor that I shall take revenge for all that have been affected by Gu Yao and the Northern Tribes!" Lin Mu said while patting Wu Hei’s shoulder.
Wu Hei looked up and thought he was hallucinating. For a moment there he had seen an obscure pattern appearing on Lin Mu’s forehead. He couldn’t read what the pattern said, but could feel the power exuding from it. There was a strange sense of reassurance in Lin Mu’s words that he could not explain.
"And when that time arrives, I’ll be with you!" Wu Hei replied.
