\'There are still things that are beyond the system\'s understanding. I can\'t be fully dependent on it. Who knows if it\'ll be wrong one day and even it won\'t know.\' Lin Wu thought to himself.

He then suddenly felt himself being picked up from the ground. Shirong had picked himself up again and was now dusting off the soil that had stuck to him. He then stored him back into the spatial storage ring and went to check up on his two companions.

"Get ready, you two. We need to leave, the other cultivators should be coming here soon!" Shirong ordered.

Ye Dai and Bei Wen opened their eyes and nodded at their Young Master\'s words. They knew that waiting here for any longer would be dangerous and could arouse suspicion if they were found. Even if they were currently hurting inside, they did not dare say anything and pulled out their spirit swords.

The three of them jumped on each of their spirit weapons and flew away. 

But to Shirong\'s misjudgment, there was no one that was currently heading in this direction, as they all were currently trying to recover themselves.

Back at the Deer Wood city all of the city\'s cultivators had been knocked out by some kind of a power and this had scared all the commoners. They did not know if it was a disease or something, thus were terrified that they would be affected too.

Thankfully, there were plenty of body tempering realm guards in the city and they were able to control the people and did not let them go overboard with the hysteria. There were also some wise people, who while not cultivators themselves, had the experiences of many years.

They were able to guide the people and prevent anything bad from happening. 

The people of the city were currently trying to nurse all the cultivators that had been knocked out in the clans, as they were the ones that had the most authority in the city. Even the Clan heads who had the cultivation base of nascent soul realm had been affected by the power and were currently in meditation.

By the time Shirong and his followers reached the city, they saw the randomly lying cultivators. They didn\'t know what happened here and were a bit overwhelmed as well. But after asking around a few questioned, Shirong realized that everything that happened with them also happened with the other people of the Deer Wood city.

"Young master, what are we to do now?" Bei Wen questioned.

"Nothing, we do nothing." Shirong simply stated.

"But young master, won\'t it be inappropriate if we don\'t do anything?" Ye Dai asked.

"No, rather this is the best for us. As long as we don\'t interfere, no questions will be asked and our involvement in the entire thing will be hidden. Seeing that all of the cultivators were affected by this and barely any of them are awake, we can claim that we don\'t know anything." Shirong explained.

The two men Ye Dai and Bei Wen thought over it for a bit and realized that young master Shirong\'s words seemed to be wise and it would be better if they simply followed him. Besides, if anything happened their Young master would become the umbrella that would shield them from the rain of problems.

Thus, Shirong and his two followers silently went back to their assigned courtyards and started recovering their injuries.

Shirong had thought that someone should be coming to check up on him soon and it was exactly what happened.

"Young master Shirong! Are you fine?" A man shouted from the outside.

Shirong was a bit annoyed by the shouting but did not show it on his face. The man entered the courtyard and saw Shirong sitting in the main room cross legged.

Shirong gently opened his eyes and made it seem like he had just been awakened. He recognized the man and knew that he was one of the Lu clansmen and was probably sent here to check up on him.

"What is it?" Shirong asked, pretending not to know much.

"The fainting spell! Is the young master fine, or does he have any difficulties?" The Lu clansman asked.

"Thank you for your concern, but I\'m fine. Albeit my injuries are still hampering me a bit." Shirong answered.

The Lu clansmen then started explaining to him all that had happened and the condition of the clans. He was told that the clan heads all had recovered mostly and would be having a meeting tonight. The clansmen also asked whether Young master Shirong would like to come.

Shirong was a bit averse to the idea but then realized that he should know what was going on exactly and what the clans\' conclusion would be to this. Anything pertaining to the spear needed to be kept secret and if any suspicion was going towards him or close to him, he needed to deflect it.

"Alright, I\'ll join the meeting tonight as well," Shirong answered and sent the Lu clansmen away.

"Seems, like I\'ll have to be careful with the spear. I do not know if something like this will happen again, but there should be some logic behind it. Hmm, the most likely reason should be that the spear absorbed enough spirit qi and released one of the seals placed on it." Shirong muttered to himself.

Meanwhile, Lin Wu was just listening to Shirong speak and was a bit happy.

"Man, you really are preparing all the excuses for me, aren\'t you? Hahaha! Just keep on doing it, it\'ll save me a lot of thinking." Lin Wu said.
