Lin Wu was only getting more interested in the wedding and wondered when it would take place. After all, an event as big an important as this would involve multiple parties other than just the powers forging an alliance.
"The date is not set yet, but it will most likely take a year or more before they co to a decision. Since it's a great issue of a sect alliance, the other powers will probably be there to witness it along with the Long clan who will preside as the authorizing party." Wang Xiong answered.
"Hmm… just as I expected. Though if the wedding date is not set and even the official agreent is not made, why did you invite already?" Lin Wu asked doubtfully.
"I wouldn't have bothered senior but Patriarch Bing said it is better if I send the invitation to you beforehand. If I didn't do it, the Cang Lan sect might have done it and who knows what other stuff they might have thrown in and bothered you." Wang Xiong replied.
"I see… guess that was smart." Lin Wu said, finding it to be better.
He'd much rather have to talk with Wang Xiong than soone random from a different power. Even if he had talked with the envoy from the Cang Lan sect, that was rely one elder from an entire sect.
At least in the case of the kingdoms and the local sects, they were nearby and forced to believe Lin Wu. Even with the Frozen Cloud sect, Lin Wu had Patriarch Bing and Guardian Yun Bai under him now.
He didn't have the sa with the Cang Lan sect and thus wanted to be a bit prudent for now.
'Though it might turn out to be an opportunity to add them earlier. I was going to do it anyway…' Lin Wu thought to himself.
"So what is going to happen now? You just wait till they decide?" Lin Wu asked.
"For the most part, yes. But I may have so etings with the Daughter of the Cang Lan patriarch too." Wang Xiong replied.
"Oh? You haven't t her yet?" Lin Wu asked.
"Well, we are acquainted and t at the tournant in the past. But we haven't had a formal eting yet." Wang Xiong stated.
"Hmm… guess this is an arranged marriage situation." Lin Wu said before taking a pause. "Well then, keep updated."
"I shall, senior." Wang Xiong bid him farewell.
Having learned of the wedding, Lin Wu was already planning for potential ways in which he could make use of it.
'With an event that big, many people would be gathered. Would be the perfect opportunity to make an impact… A few deaths should only make it better,' Lin Wu thought to himself as a smile appeared on his face.
Lin Wu looked at the tir and saw that there were still over eight hours left till the completion of the task. Thus, he checked other things and talked with his servants.
The things in the forest were progressing steadily, and more areas had now been built. Not only that, but so humans had actually moved in as well!
"They sent a list too, lem check." Lin Wu saw the roster send by one of the Eraldine Monkeys.
"Hmm… it's cultivators from the nearby kingdoms." Lin Wu read their nas and other information that was provided.
A majority had moved here because they were either itinerant cultivators that didn't have access to good cultivation areas, or from powers, and had seen the value of the kingdom.
It was a fact that the concentration of spirit Qi in the forest was higher than other places and thus it was obvious to make use of it. While there was the factor about beasts attacking them, it was still restrained in the recent tis.
The Millennium forest kingdom was steadily developing an identity that was unique. The factor of safety was also getting established, and the humans didn't feel as much danger either.
As long as they could cross the first three rings of the forest, they wouldn't really be attacked by beasts unless they went into restricted areas.
Specific paths that were guarded had already been made and if one took these through the forest, they would be safe. Not just that, but these were even watched over by the Nascent soul realm beasts of the forest.
Thus, no beast would dare to attack without any provocation.
That was an important clause that Lin Wu had added as he did not want the kingdom to be seen as weak and a pushover. If he made it 'too safe' for the humans, they would take it all for granted.
He did not want the beasts to get bullied either, and if they were attacked or offended, the beasts had full freedom to strike back. Any repercussion of them were for the kingdom to handle.
The sa could be said for the beasts, but surprisingly no issue had happened from the side of the beasts. Probably because the beasts had an innate compulsion to follow the strong and with Lin Wu being the king, they would not disobey his commands.
Such was the subordination enforced upon them from their very bloodline.
Along with this, Lin Wu also saw that the orchards had been expanded once more and were thirty percent larger than they were last year. It was being scaled according to the increase in the business and was going rather well.
'But it's not all good either… the problems are still there.' Lin Wu noted the issues happening.
Basically, the biggest issue was that the lower ranked beasts were unable to keep up with it all. This was in terms of their numbers as well as the many changes that happened.
"Seems like I'll need to find a way to increase the birthrate of the beasts. The passive increase from the increased spirit Qi can only go so far…" Lin Wu muttered to himself.
~DING~
