"Now you are down one more time bitch. I wonder what the people gonna say about your clan. don't worry about the normal members of your clan, they will work for us, with their population we will have the right to become a clan once and for all." Galen said with a smirk, his feet was on top of her face pressing it down to the ground while she panted loudly with no strength of her own to even remove his leg from her face.
Galen threw a glance at Liam who has started walking away in another direction, probably going toward the Ling clan secret base.
The secret base was unseen by those who had no connection with it, but for Liam it was tangible and visible.
He placed his hands on it, exerting a powerful blood energy that flowed through the secret base as though it was forming tiny vessel in it.
Then he made sure to exert more energies into it so that it explode, only one part of it explode causing the whole base to be visible to others.
The formation used to make it invisible was destroyed at that moment, Xavier and Galen were taken aback at the size of it.
They could not believe that such a place exist in this location, no wonder the other day they didn't see a soul when they came here to search for Liam after they have been attacked by the arrows.
Galen who first thought that Liam was a betrayer finally started blaming himself for having such a thought.
As for Liam, he could not consider himself a betrayer or a good guy.
All he wanted was wealth and power and to get this it was only advisable that he take the path with the most benefit and leave out the other path.
After exploding open one part, Liam walked inside.
The first floor of the base was filled with broken walls, he was left with no option other than to search thoroughly for a clue to get to higher floors in the base.
The first floor only have the legacy flute but the other floors might have even more, if possible he might even be able to find an artifact with bloodline soul entrapped in it just like the legacy flute in his inventory right now.
Liam looked around, with the improved vision from the bond with blood manipulator he could only find path flow of blood, meaning he could view life objects even though there is an obstruction in the path.
Nevertheless, it wasn't useful other than that thus he activated demon eye and observe the room with it.
He saw traces of a staircase in the South East direction, but the way to access it was the problem.
He found an hidden knob somewhere, he have seen the generals using it once when his attention was darted toward the Matriarch.
'I guess that is it.' Liam thought as he approach it with a smile on his face, he ripped off the metal hiding the knob and twisted the knock in an anticlockwise direction.
He started hearing the rumbling of metals, and the sound of gears moving against another.
He stood up and walked toward the staircase that was revealed after the component holding it was removed.
He walked up the stair arriving in the second floor, just then he heard Galen asking him a question it was about the location of Emelia and Ling Xan.
"Don't worry, I'll bring them along, you can continue with looting I have something to check out up here." He gave his answer, Xavier and Galen nodded.
After taking care of the Matriarch, only thing left was looting and also taking away her people.
The fact that the Gregor family will finally be changing to a clan was enough loot.
A family can have the highest rank in nobility, only population can determine if they can be regarded as a clan or not.
For the Gregor family, becoming a clan was a dream they were expecting to come true many years from now, but since it's happening now it was nothing less than great.
Xavier raised the matriarch with energy and they proceeded to their next battle plan meanwhile, Liam proceeded toward the second floor once he arrive the first thing that greeted his eyes was a beautiful light that came from beautiful crystals, they weren't that much in numbers about one hundred but their size were enormous making up for their numbers.
These crystals can be used for crafting weapons, even spirit weapons, a weapon higher than normal weapons can be forge from it making it extremely expensive.
But just as he was about to suck them into his inventory, a window appeared telling him that it was impossible.
[Error: Projections can't be stored in system inventory]
'Projections?' Liam eyes furrowed, he could not believe all this riches were just projections.
'But if it's a projection, then it means there is a real one somewhere.' With that, his hope returned and he proceeded to the upper floors.
Getting to the third he was greeted with yet another projection of the same thing and on the fourth he was greeted with the real body of Emelia and Ling Xan.
He had to save the two, infact after hearing the fighting and the loud cries of the Ling Matriarch they could already tell that things weren't in the right state anymore and thus they seeked the interference of someone.
"Stay here and wait for me" Liam was simple, Galen was someone he trusted a little because the dude didn't do anything against him in the past and even now he was still the same.
With that little respect, he wasn't willing to take their heart and dantian away. they weren't even that powerful and would prove useless.
He was in the midst of a bond once again, thus he could tell how much his strength have increased.
The two Linglings did not know he was Liam because of the transformation, he was someone powerful, so they seek protection in him.
Meanwhile he continued ascending the floors one after the other but everything was just projections other than some place with beds that smells of dried up lust fluid, it was obviously the place where they pleasured themselves by themselves or with the help of sex toys and their numerous sex slaves.
With the set up of this place, it was easy to see how the Ling clan managed to have so much supporters, after showing them the 'treasures' they either have sex with them before other things take place or maybe the men are just deceived with the treasures alone.
Until he got to the last floor did he finally see the real once, he didn't hesitate and took them all into his inventory.
Thirty minutes later, Liam led the two Linglings down to the ground floor and then he led them outside.
At that moment, Xavier and Galen as well as the soldiers from their ally clan and kingdoms.
The group led down a large numbers of people including men and children of both genders.
The men were thin, a total contrast from the the women with sparkling skins and beautiful clothes.
Two hours later, in the Gregor family a large feast was going on with many dignitaries in attendance, even kings weren't excluded from this event.
The Gregor family will be inaugurated as the fifth clan in this kingdom, which was a thing to celebrate for.
A man with long hair walled toward Gregor, he was no other person than the assistant guild leader of the police guild.
"I can't believe it, barely two weeks ago we were discussing this and it's a reality now, Gregor my friend, you really make me wonder so much, I was so stunned when I received the invitation." He said, as he stretched his hand out for an hand shake.
Gregor accepted the handshake invitation.
"It was all thanks to someone, without his intervention, all this wouldn't have been possible." Gregor said with a proud smile on his face.
"Haha, tell me who it is, I know it's not far from Galen, I already told you that boy is a rare genius, someone who got recognized and recruited by a famous sect, someone with such talent is definitely not ordinary"
"No no, Galen only worked a little in this. the real victor is right over there." He pointed at Liam sitting faraway from the party reading a scroll.
The dude eyes furrowed when he saw Liam, just a quick glance he was able to tell that Liam wasn't an ordinary kid.
The aura emitted from his body could be felt by him despite the distance.
Meanwhile, Liam stared at the scroll that was passed to him by a bird.
The sender was Cornelia, the content was about her departure and details about other stuffs he considered random.
"Boy, I didn't expect she still send a farewell message and sneakily pass down her feeling for me. sorry Cornelia, I don't do love." He sighed, folded the scroll and burnt it with golden flame.
