Rise Of The Worm Sovereign-Chapter 1036 Enslaving Hu Peiliang

Lin Wu looked at the paralyzed Hu Peiliang and extended his tail towards him.

~SHING~

A crystal spike extended out of it before stabbing into the man's back. Being paralyzed, the man didn't even see the incoming threat, and neither did he feel any pain. The only thing he felt was that something had entered his body, but he didn't know what.

Hu Dagao raised a brow and watched Lin Wu do his work. f𝐫ee𝘄ℯ𝚋no𝐯𝐞l.c𝘰m

About a minute later, Lin Wu withdrew the crystal spoke and spoke, "he'll be of good use to us as a slave."

"A slave?" Hu Dagao recalled the time when he was given a choice.

He could either choose to follow Lin Wu out of his own free will, or would have to do the same unwillingly. He had decided that it was much better to follow than lose his freewill, thus he was spared from this.

But seeing the entire process with his own eyes, he felt a little stunned.

"Yes… since he's gone against us, he'll have to pay for it." Lin Wu replied. "And now you'll have an easier time finish up your tasks." He added.

Hu Dagao watched as his elder brother started to move on the ground. Hu Peiliang struggled for a minute before managing to stand up again. It was clear that Lin Wu had released him from the paralysis.

Hu Peiliang looked at Lin Wu for a couple of seconds as an expression of terror appeared on his face. Then in the next moment, he quickly fell to his knees.

~THUD~

"This servant pays his respect to master!" Hu Peiliang said out loud.

Hu Dagao who saw all this was astonished at first. But then a few seconds later, he burst out laughing.

"AHAHAHA! EXCELLENT! THIS IS EXCELLENT!" Hu Dagao circled around the kneeling Hu Peiliang.

He could sense the change in the attitude of his elder brother and knew that the man wasn't the same as before.

'He has really changed… Master has done it… He can really turn anyone into his slave!' Hu Dagao felt a mix of awe and fear. 'It was my best decision to follow him.' He thought.

"You shall follow Hu Dagao's commands from now on. Do as he says." Lin Wu ordered the new servant.

"Yes master!" Hu Peiliang replied.

"Mmm… now tell me what you have been plotting all this time." Lin Wu questioned.

"As you command, master." Hu Peiliang said before starting to narrate everything.

Lin Wu's words were a little too broad and Hu Peiliang ended up revealing all that he had done in the past few years.

He spoke about the fact that he and Hu Shui had been in cahoots from the start and that the ranking of the four top heirs was intentionally maintained by them. They had suppressed other direct heirs from rising and only allowed Hu Dagao and another one of their siblings to continue.

To them, Hu Dagao's earlier work before meeting Lin Wu was good enough, thus they tolerated his existence in the top four heirs. But with the addition of Lin Wu, the actions of Hu Dagao started to infringe on the interest of Hu Peiliang.

This prompted the man to get rid of the monkey that was causing trouble for him.

But Hu Dagao's actions had been too open and had been noticed by the clan as well. It didn't help that the report that he had sent about a beast that could traverse the void had also alarmed the clan.

This only made the patriarch and other elders pay more attention to him, thereby making it harder for Hu Peiliang to deal with him. And since killing him was out of the option for the fear of alarming the entire clan, Hu Peiliang decided to imprison him.

They had intentionally used a spatial sealing array so that they could eventually blame the death of Hu Dagao on the same beast that he had reported about. It would be a self-satisfying excuse that they had carefully formulated.

Granted, this plan had to change with the arrival of the Calamity Fiend.

This had basically thrown a wrench into their plans, prompting them to be a lot warier than before.

Unfortunately, even this went down in shambles as Hu Peiliang failed at going against Lin Wu right from the start.

Lin Wu also learned that if there was one person that Hu Peiliang feared the most, it was his father, the Patriarch of the Hu clan: Hu Dandan.

The two of them listened to a lot of things that Hu Peiliang had done, and every secret of the man was revealed. They also came to find out about the large fortune that Hu Peiliang had hidden away over the years.

Learning about this, Lin Wu was very happy.

'This saves me some time, haha! I can just use his hidden fortune to trade with the Long Continent. And here I thought, I'll have to wait for Hu Dagao to set up the shipments first.' Lin Wu thought to himself as a smile appeared on his face.

After Hu Peiliang was done speaking, Lin Wu looked at Hu Dagao.

"Go with him to the Hu clan. Pretend as if you were saved by him and that Hu Peiliang had been trying to find you from the start." Lin Wu instructed.

"Alright master. But what do we do about Hu Shui?" Hu Dagao questioned.

"It's easy to deal with her." Lin Wu said before creating a crystal spike from his body. "Take this and stab it into her chest." He told Hu Peiliang.

"Yes, master!" Hu Peiliang took the crystal spike.

"Will this enslave her too?" Hu Dagao guessed.

"It will indeed." Lin Wu nodded his head. "Once this is done, report to me all the news that will be coming in a while."

Hu Dagao raised his brows upon hearing this. "Is it related to the Calamity Fiend he talked about?" he asked.

"Yes… the Hu continent will know about it soon enough." Lin Wu replied. "I want to know everything that your father discusses."
