Chapter 830 Surprise Visitor

'',

With Tim having been rewarded, Lin Wu didn't really have anything more to do. He sent away Tim to do his own thing and went back to cultivation. After all, even if he needed to do more things, the beasts were currently injured, and he needed to wait until they were fully recovered.

'The latest_epi_sodes are on_the Nov elB i n website.',

According to the system's estimations, the beasts will all be healed till the end of the month. Which wasn't really that long of a time for him since he would be spending it in cultivation.

But unexpectedly, Lin Wu was interrupted as someone had arrived in the Millennium forest just about five days later.

~DING~

——

WARNING: Strong Cultivator detected

CULTIVATION BASE: Dao Treading Realm

——

Seeing this, Lin Wu was certainly surprised.

'',

'Who might this be? If it was someone that was known, the system would have not given a warning…' Lin Wu thought to himself.

"Show me the person, system." Lin Wu ordered.

~DING~

In the next second, a new monitoring screen appeared in front of Lin Wu. And on that screen he could see two men. One of these men was familiar and known to him, being none other than Elder Ruanjian of the Lian clan.

But the second person was very shocking to Lin Wu.

"WHAT IN THE GODDAMN ELEPHANT IS THAT!?" Lin Wu almost screamed.

On the screen was a large man… a very large and fat man. He was over two metres tall and equally wide as well. If it weren't for that fact that he could fly, Lin Wu was unsure if his legs could even walk.

The man/fat ball flew like a balloon through the air and was traveling towards the center of the millennium forest. They were currently on the second ring right now, but at the speed they were flying would reach the third ring soon enough.

Lin Wu kept on staring at the fat man and couldn't tell if this was really a human or not.

A few minutes later, Lin Wu got over his initial shock and calmed down.

"Hang on… that face… and that body… isn't that…" Another fat man appeared in Lin Wu's mind.

Soon enough, all the puzzle's pieces fit together and Lin Wu realized just who this was. The existence of Elder Ruanjian also helped him in guessing though.

"Is this… the patriarch of the Lian clan, Lian Dajian?" Lin Wu finally identified.

"GODDAMN! I thought Lian Xiaojian was fat… this guy is on a different level entirely! Just like their names, Xiaojian is the 'smaller' version of his father." Lin Wu said, finding it funny.

By the time Lian Dajian and Elder Ruanjian had reached the border of the fourth ring, Lin Wu started to guess why they were here.

"Could it be because of Lian Xiaojian?" Lin Wu guessed at first.

He was, after all told that he would be rewarded appropriately if he took care of the clan heir. While he had not gotten the reward till now, the business with the Lian clan was certainly going well and the profits were being raked in by the droves.

Kai Li was doing exactly as she had stipulated in the contract and was keeping all the terms. Lin Wu didn't even need to check up on that much, as his servants took care of that. Additional, as long as someone was in the forest, the system would automatically take note of that.

Thus, even if Lin Wu's servants took inventory of the goods and profits, the system knew everything moment Kai Li or other caravans would enter the forest.

And so far, other than a few minor discrepancies in the logistics, no loss had been seen, and neither was there a reduction in profit. In fact, there was only an increase and Kai Li's contracted merchants had all gotten significantly richer than before.

So much so that now there were bid wars for her contracts.

To win a contract, one would have to bid the lowest profit share. Those that took the least amount of profit share from it would be selected. While it seemed like a loss making opportunity for the merchants, it was not so.

Over the first year, many were unsure about Kai Li's prospects, but now they were more than sure. After all, there was nothing better to convince someone than showing cold, hard proof of gold.

If Kai Li was making losses or faking it, there was no way she would be able to afford so many people.

For the merchants that wanted to join her, even at the reduced profit margins, they would still make a lot more than they would on their own.

Because of this steady gain, the Millennium forest kingdom was getting richer and none was the wiser. After all, Lin Wu had not done anything to show his wealth yet. The only show of wealth was the inheritance grounds, perhaps.

'Hmm… still, it doesn't make sense that the patriarch would come here just to see his son. My original agreement was that I would make his physique awaken, but that has not been done yet.' Lin Wu thought.

"No, wait… do they want to take Lian Xiaojian back, perhaps?" Lin Wu wondered.

,m It had certainly been three years and Lian Xiaojian was yet to awaken his Vital House physique.

Lin Wu took a quick look at the screen that showed the fatty and saw him being sent flying again. It was unknown how many attempts he had done by now, but he was still not at the door of the hall.

Thankfully, Lian Xiaojian was given food and other things at the right intervals such that he was in the very specific condition that was needed for the awakening of the physique.

Lin Wu didn't mind that he hadn't gone past the door either. After all, it wasn't actually needed for the awakening of his physique. It was simply a visible goal for him so that he would not falter easily.

And he had certainly been keeping up without stopping.
