BXBX NOVEL Chapter 72 - Dao Script?
Lin Wu had not expected that Young Master Shirong had the same thought as him and decided to take care of any further probabilities that may worsen the situation. By borrowing the name of his clan\'s ancestor now, there was no one that would dare to question him.
Even the king of the Ling kingdom would have to call the Ji clan\'s ancestor senior, not to mention the people here.
The other people in the hall hurriedly agreed with Clan head Lu\'s words so as to alleviate any potential dishonor. Even a careless mention by Young Master Shirong to his ancestor could spell doom to their entire clans. It would not even take a word before countless other powers would do it themselves to gain the favor of the Ji clan.
~Phew~
Seeing that the situation had stabilized Young Master Shirong took a breath of relief. Clan head Lu who was standing the nearest to him heard this and suddenly cold sweat appeared on his back.
"Forgive my insolence, Young Master Shirong! I forgot that you are injured and need to nurse your injuries. Please, take our special courtyard to rest and recover," Clan Head Lu hurriedly said. "And I don\'t think anyone else would disagree to this." He added while looking at the other people in the hall with a killer gaze.
\'Hahaha, now these fools are in line.\' Shirong inwardly laughed.
"Yes, yes. Young Master Shirong should go rest now. Also, my clan will send some healing pills and elixirs, please use them Young Master Shirong that\'s the least we can do." Clan Head Xiong spoke, finding another moment to boot lick.
Not wanting to miss out this chance of currying favor the other clan heads and the merchant heads did the same giving Shirong some healing pills as well. As for Young Master Shirong\'s two followers, they were not forgotten of course.
They were also given some pills as a friendly gesture, as the clans had to keep up a certain decorum. It would not reflect well on a clan\'s reputation if they were not even able to afford this much. The two men Ye Dai and Bei Wen would have even gotten more pills but their true identity of being Young Master Shirong\'s followers was secret.
Still, the two men did not mind this and were instead happy at even getting this much.
"Damn, this guy Shirong is a pro. A few words is all it took him to not only flip the tables in his favor, but also to get rewarded for murdering their people." Lin Wu praised, feeling amazed.
\'Hehe, get more resources. Potentially they will be mine anyway…\' Lin Wu thought with a creepy glint in his eyes.
"That\'ll be very accommodating of everyone. Thank you for your hospitality." Young Master Shirong thanked and was then personally guided by clan head Lu to the special courtyard he had spoken.
Upon stepping into the room, Shirong could immediately feel the increased concentration of spirit qi in the air. It was evident that the courtyard had some qi gathering formations carved into it. He had to say that this environment would definitely decrease the item he\'ll require to recover from the injuries.
\'Even if this is not as good as the ones in my clan, it\'s pretty decent for a clan like the Lu clan.\' Shirong thought to himself.
"I\'ll leave you to it them, Young Master Shirong. If you need anything please, don\'t hesitate to contact the servants they will appear at your single word." Clan head Lu said before leaving the courtyard.
Shirong waited for the clan head Lu to leave the courtyard before he started scanning the entire courtyard with his spirit sense for any spying formation.
"At least they have the wisdom to not place a spying formation here," Shirong muttered to himself.
Suddenly Lin Wu felt the connection he had with the spatial storage ring activate and he became alert.
"Is he about to summon me? No wait, this feels different…" Lin Wu said to himself as he immediately returned to his spear form.
He then felt a fluctuation in the spatial ring and saw a few things vanish from the ring.
"Huh, what did he take?" Lin Wu wondered as he then looked outside.
Shirong was currently in the process of sticking a few talismans around the room. After he was done with it, a bunch of glowing characters appeared in the air which Lin Wu had seen for the first time.
"This should be enough, now even if someone wants to spy they can\'t. This privacy formation should last for a few days." Shirong muttered to himself.
"Ooh! He even has something like this. But then what were those glowing characters that appeared?" Lin Wu muttered to himself.
"System, what are those characters I just saw?" Lin Mu questioned.
~Ding~
——
ANSWER: Those characters are the runes that are used to make formations. They are written in a special language called as the Dao script.
——
"Ah, so that\'s what they were. Makes sense, but what is this language Dao script?" Lin Wu spoke further.
~Ding~
——
ANSWER: The system does not have enough information about Dao script and only knows that it is used for various things such as setting up formations, alchemy, weapon forging, spirit tool refinement, and even the Creation of cultivation technique.
——
After reading the system\'s answer, Lin Wu was quite interested. Seeing how many things the Dao script was used for it seemed obvious to him that he needed to learn.
"Seems like I need to find a cultivator that had more knowledge about this. No, wait… wasn\'t there something in that list?" Lin Wu muttered before taking another look at the list that the system made.
"There it is! Data node… and these are even in the form of books. This should be good." Lin Wu said, feeling excited.
"System, can you scan and obtain these data nodes?" Lin Wu asked.
To Lin Wu any new knowledge was useful, and he wanted to get every small bit he possibly could.
