Rise Of The Worm Sovereign

Lin Wu waited about half an hour before the Club tailed lizard finally appeared at the entrance of the Taiji Celestial's tomb. Lin Wu didn't really have enmity with the Club Tailed Lizard and thus didn't need to fight him; unless of course, she attacked him first.

'I did kill her mate and now she's alone with eggs… Damn, I turned her into a single mother.

But then… she is quite a strong mother being at the Nascent soul realm, she shouldn't really have any problems.' Lin Wu thought to himself.

On the monitor screen, Lin Wu could see the Club Tailed Lizard who was carrying the eggs on her back. They were perfectly snuggled on her slightly concave back.

"No wonder people in the past preferred Club Tailed Lizards as a mount. Their bodies are perfect for it. And seeing the speed, they aren't that slow either." Lin Wu said after observing for a bit..

He could see the Club Tailed Lizard looking around in slight confusion. It was obvious since the entrance of the Tomb was the same as before, with the bones of dead beasts piled around. To the Club Tailed Lizard, this was highly suspicious and anyone would think like this.

"Hmm… perhaps I should think of renovating the entrance a bit. Though this also helps in giving off a bit more powerful appearance." Lin Wu muttered to himself before ordering the system to teleport the Club Tailed Lizard inside.

~shua~

The Club Tailed Lizard suddenly found runes appearing around her and then found her body to be weightless. Then in the next moment, she found herself in a large hall that was lit up with white lights that floated in the air.

Her spirit sense spread around anxiously, trying to get a sense of the area in front of her. It was now that she felt something in the front and she looked up.

"You… are you the Beast that killed the Olive Viper King?" The Club Tailed Lizard asked.

Lin Wu who had just appeared, nodded his head.

"Yes, I did indeed. I am the one that killed your mate." Lin Wu replied.

Lin Wu could see the anxiety within the eyes of the Club Tailed Lizard and wondered if she was angry with him for killing her mate. 

"GOOD!" The Club Tailed Lizard said, surprising Lin Wu.

"Huh? Good?" Lin Wu said in confusion.

"THAT BASTARD IS FINALLY DEAD! GOOD RIDDANCE!" The Club Tailed Lizard cursed.

Lin Wu was now truly confused and didn't know why the Club Tailed Lizard was behaving like this.

"You didn't like him? I thought he was your mate?" Lin Wu questioned.

"What Mate!? He forced me to move here and made me his mate. I didn't even want this." The Club Tailed Lizard answered.

"Huh… didn't expect that…" Lin Wu muttered to himself.

"So… what did you want to talk about?" Lin Wu asked.

"I just want a place to live in till my eggs hatch. After that, I'll go back to my land." The Club Tailed Lizard spoke.

"Just that?" Lin Wu asked.

"Yes. This place isn't fully safe because of the other Nascent soul realm beast kings. Plus… there is something ominous in this forest." The Club Tailed Lizard replied.

"Something ominous? What do you mean?" Lin Wu questioned, finding it to be strange.

"I've always had a sense for danger. It is also why I knew something was going to happen to the Olive Viper King and I moved away before that." The Club Tailed Lizard replied.

'So that's why… that's a handy ability to have…' Lin Wu thought.

"But what's ominous here?" Lin Wu asked again.

"In the center of the forest, I think you all call it the Dark Bloom Taverns. There is something there… I do not know what, but it is terrifying and ominous. If it were not for my eggs, I would have left on my own already." The Club Tailed Lizard replied.

"I see…" Lin Wu said, taking note of this 'ominous' thing in the Dark Bloom Cavern.

There were very few things in the Dark Bloom Cavern that Lin Wu knew of. He wondered what it could be that was ominous. At first, he wondered if it was the Twin Lights Liger King but then shook his head as he was just a beast king.

Though Lin Wu reckoned that the Twin Lights Liger King should probably know something and even Zhu Tianying had said that the Liger King was the oldest beast here and knew a lot more.

But in addition to this, Lin Wu knew one other thing that others did not; the Dark Bloom Caverns also contained the main power source of the Taiji Celestia's tomb. Lin Wu wondered if this was linked with that as well.

Even the system did not know what the power source exactly was, despite being connected to the formation array of the tomb. After learning this though, Lin Wu decided to be a bit more cautious in dealing with the Dark Bloom Caverns and even the Twin Lights Liger King.

Having thought of all this, Lin Wu looked at the Club Tailed Lizard and spoke.

"Alright, I can agree with all the conditions. You can stay in one of the halls in the Tomb, and just tell me when you want to leave." Lin Wu replied.

"Okay." The Club Tailed Lizard replied.

Lin Wu's gaze went over the eggs and he felt the bloodline within them.

"Those eggs, they have a similar bloodline to me. Yet they are different." Lin Wu spoke.

~Sigh~

"As much as I would have not wanted, my offspring will have the bloodline of that snake. I hate him, but I cannot hate my offspring. Half of them are my bloodline, anyway." The Club Tailed Lizard replied.

"I understand… but why did the Olive Viper King want you to be his mate and where did he even find you?" Lin Wu asked the question that had been plaguing his curiosity for a while now.
