Chapter 1756 n.o.bles Negotiations

Childe Wildfire's attack was on a large scale and covered an area of nearly ten kilometers in one go.

The cultivators that were hiding or those that were running were caught in it and were quickly wiped away. Their bodies turned into flashes of light and were teleported out of the spatial plane.

"Hmph… trash is the same as always…" Childe Wildfire said before continuing onwards.

In the opposite direction from him, Ming Aolian's tamed beast Ting was also doing well. She could fly higher than most immortals and was able to sniff them out with ease.

The ones that were deemed weaker were quickly eliminated by the beast as well while those that were stronger were marked. The information was shared with others, and they would be taken care of later.

Lu Xu and Qian Wen were also defeating cultivators that they came across. They seemed to be in luck, as they only encountered a handful of immortals that were all at the Third Tribulation Stage of the immortal realm.

After a couple of hours, they couldn't find any more cultivators and ended up going to help Ming Aolian out.

The cultivators that were tracked by Ting were now being hunted down by the combination of Lu Xu and Qian Wen. Ting would also swoop down when the cultivators least expected it.

This made their task easier and they hunted down nearly fifteen immortals this way.

This left Lin Mu who was the one having the least luck.

"Only two immortals in this direction so far… it's been two hours too…" Lin Mu wondered if the immortals were really far away, or if there were not many in this direction.

Even with his immortal sense extended to the limit, Lin Mu didn't encounter any more immortals. It was as if they had all been eliminated already.

'I guess this is also good. Our goal is to wait out anyways. If just us six are left, we will win by default anyway.' Lin Mu thought to himself.

The group of six continued this for another twelve hours. During this time, Lin Mu managed to find one more immortal, while Lu Xu and Qian Wen hunted down three immortals with the help of Ting. The one immortal that Lin Mu had hunted down had also been found with the help of the Sky Soar Wolf.

It only made Lin Mu miss Little Shrubby, as the beast could easily carry him around as well as find the cultivators hidden away.

Childe Wildfire on the other hand, had defeated the most immortals out of them. He had seemingly gotten the busiest areas and had defeated nearly twenty immortals in those twelve hours.

The reason it was 'nearly' defeated was due to the fact that a couple of the immortals had injured themselves while running and collided with each other. They were knocked out accidentally and ended up being teleported out of the Spatial Plane.

It was a funny scene that Lin Mu and his companions didn't get to see. But the audience that did see it found it hilarious.

This one event ended up raising Childe Wildfire's reputation more than it had done with his threatening att.i.tude before. People had now seen the other immortals fear the man and run away without even seeing him. This made the audience awed.

The ironic thing was that if the immortals that had been running away from Childe Wildfire tried to band together and fight against him, they might have had a slight chance of surviving longer. But since they were running away with their backs to him, they became easy targets.

They didn't know that Childe Wildfire was in a sensitive state as well.

If they knew that he was actually close to an Immortal Tribulation, they could have forced his hand and possibly interfered in his Tribulation. But without the knowledge of this, they were suffering.

It showed just how much having knowledge helped. Lin Mu had grasped the one vulnerability of Childe Wildfire and made him cooperate with him without even fighting him. This act of Lin Mu had managed to get him some attention from certain kinds of n.o.bles.

These were the same kinds of n.o.bles that preferred political power and made use of their tongues more than their swords. A talented individual that could negotiate and influence others was very valuable in the n.o.ble circle.

They knew, if they nurtured Lin Mu, they could gain a lot of benefits in the long term.

These n.o.bles tried to find out if Lin Mu had been sponsored beforehand and were unable too.

They had to spend extra effort before they found out that he had indeed been sponsored. They weren't discouraged due to this though. Instead, it only emboldened them to try further.

After all to them, someone who could be swayed by a sponsors.h.i.+p could be swayed again. One only needed to offer better terms than the original sponsor. As such, they tried to find out just who it was that had sponsored Lin Mu.

They faced some obstacles in this too. Infuriated by this, the n.o.bles tried to make use of their connections to find more information. But the information that they found through that method ended up turning their blood cold.

The one who had sponsored Lin Mu was no minor n.o.ble.

It was the Crown Prince of the Dao Wind Empire!

No sane n.o.ble would try to touch someone that had been claimed by Crown Prince Feng Shun. He was bound to be the emperor one day, and they certainly didn't wish to offend him this way.

Moreover, just the fact that they had harbored the thought of stealing someone from Crown prince Feng Shun alone could be considered treasonous. Thus, they ended up spending more effort and resources in hiding their traces instead.

They knew that the Crown Prince was bound to find it out if he got interested. Their only hope was that the Crown Prince wouldn't bother much seeing that they had held back.
