Chapter 912 - The Other Alliance Sects

"Patriarch, how long will it take the two sects to arrive here according to you?" Lin Mu questioned.
While he knew that a month was a conservative estimate, he still didn't know what abilities or tools the sects might use.
"The message will reach them within the hour, but for them to arrive will take a bit more than a month. While the sects can use their spirit vehicles and arrive here in two weeks, that will be high profile and be noticed by the others.
I don't think we want that at the current time." Patriarch You Yi stated.
"That's true. The last thing we want is for Gu Yao and the northern tribes to suspect something. The less they know, the better." Lin Mu replied.
It was evident that Lin Mu would have to wait a month before the alliance could be officially solidified. Though he was thankful that the patriarch had decisively accepted the proposal.
Them encountering the invader first hand here and the patriarch having dealt with something like that in the past had definitely in his decision though. Plus, since Lin Mu was ordained by the world, his claim was even truer.
Dismissing the wanted order was something that was quickly made by the patriarch. Even though this could not be done openly for now, the sects of the alliance will not act on the wanted orders.
Thankfully, Lin Mu looked rather different now and thus the chances of someone identifying him were minuscule.
His gaze went back to the invader infected rabbit beast that was restrained in the front. After it was released by High Elder Sunsen, the formation arrays of the hall quickly restrained it.
This was the seat of power of the Long Cloud sect, thus doing something like this was a very easy task and didn't even need the Patriarch to speak. Just a simple gaze triggered the formations to do that back then.
"We do need to discuss about the invader through, Patriarch." Lin Mu spoke up.
"Of course… what happened today was a tragedy and it could have been worse if not for you being there." You Yi acknowledged.
"That's what I want to stop. But we don't know if there are more avatars of the invader here. As far as I know, five such avatars have been exterminated already. I myself exterminated two in the past and the other three were done by Jing Luo's family.
If it has appeared after all this time, it means that it has probably been brought here intentionally or has wandered out. We need to trace its source and see where it might have come from.
There is a chance that there are more such avatars hiding. Plus, we still don't know if the avatars that are forced to escape into the void return or not." Lin Mu stated.
"We definitely need to do it. And if it really is the northern tribes controlling and spreading the avatars, it would mean they also have the means to restrain it. We need to get that method." Jing Luo added.
Lin Mu nodded his head as both the things were important.
From what he had discussed with senior Xukong in the past, Lin Mu knew that the main body of the invader was somewhere in the void and it sent out its avatars. Even if the main avatar that came to the world was with the Great Slumber bear and purged by it in the end, there were still some smaller ones that spread around.
Xukong even suggested that the invader might send more avatars on its own, having sensed the position of the world. If that truly happened, they would be in a far more dangerous situation.
The northern Tribes would be like children in front of the Invader, whose power was certainly beyond this world.
"That shall be done, of course. We can start right away too since we have some clues right here." Patriarch You Yi replied.
"The beasts…" Elder Sunsen said, realizing what the man meant.
"As far as we know, the first beast that was infected was a green tailed howler monkey in the Hong Lin Kingdom, then for some reason that beast died and another beast was infected by the invader's avatar." Lin Mu said as he pointed at the Horse Manticore.
"I don't think just anyone would have a Horse Manticore on this side of the continent. They are found in the Great Southern Forest and very few people would be capable of owning one here since capturing and bringing one all the way here is a difficult task." Lin Mu added.
"Has there been any information about a beast like this being sold before?" one of the elders questioned.
"I don't think so… though we have had seen some of its material before." Another elder replied.
"You have?" Lin Mu questioned.
"Yes. Some of the Horse Manticore Fangs were once up for sale in the capital." The elder answered.
"And when was this?" Lin Mu questioned.
"About three years ago, if my memory serves me correctly." The elder replied.
"Hmm… a bit long, but perhaps we can find more." Lin Mu muttered.
"Get me information about any Horse Manticore materials that are up for sale." You Yi ordered.
One of the elders left to get the information and soon returned with it.
"So, what did you find?" The Patriarch questioned.
"According to the resources catalog we were sent last month, there are indeed a few Horse Manticore materials available for sale." The elder answered.
"Who's selling them?" Lin Mu questioned.
"We don't know the true supplier of it since it is the merchants who will be selling them." The elder replied. "It will be hard to figure it out, since the merchants will hide their advantageous deals."
"Merchants… huh… I think I can find that out…" Lin Mu said.
"You can?" You Yi raised a brow.
"I do have someone who can do that for us.." Lin Mu replied before taking out the communication jade slip and contacting a certain ally who was also a sly merchant.
