BXBX NOVEL Chapter 1003 Branding Hu Dagao
With the two options that were presented to Hu Dagao, it was clear that the first was the only one that was good.
The second one would turn him into a slave and leave him with no free will of his own. At first, he wondered if it was worth resisting but several thoughts made him think otherwise.
"I\'ll give you a minute to think. But after that, I\'ll act on my own." Lin Wu stated coldly.
Kulung could feel the deadly aura within Lin Wu\'s voice and knew that it was far greater than it was when he had faced him and even battled him. Albeit it was just briefly.
While Hu Dagao didn\'t know just what method Lin Wu would be using to enslave him, being an heir of the Hu clan, he knew no less than five methods that could work even on Dao Treading realm cultivators not to mention he who was just at the Dao Shell realm for now.
Even with his bloodline, resisting it was not a fully assured option as he could feel that the being in front of him could suppress the bloodline as well with no regard to its rank.
With such choice presented to him, it didn\'t take Hu Dagao to make his choice.
"I… I\'ll cooperate!" Hu Dagao answered.
"Ah, good. Ten seconds early too." Lin Wu nodded his head before peeking at the invisible system screen that was currently giving him a string of updates. \'Seems like the implant is ready too…\'
"I shall being now." Lin Wu spoke, making the men confused.
"Begin what?" Hu Dagao asked.
"I\'ll be imprinting my brand on you." Lin Wu replied.
"Brand? But I thought you said you will not enslave me if I cooperate?" Hu Dagao questioned in doubt and fear.
"That I did indeed. And I am not enslaving you. The brand will merely keep me informed of your presence as well as your immediate environment. You will still have your freewill." Lin Wu assuaged his fears.
~gulp~
Hu Dagao swallowed a mouthful of saliva, knowing that even if Lin Wu was enslaving him now, there was no turning back from this. He had come too far for this to be stopped. There was no one coming to rescue him either.
~SHING~
Then in the next moment, a spike extended from Lin Wu\'s body and touched Hu Dagao. It\'s speed was too fast for him to react and even Kulung only saw it when it was already on Hu Dagao\'s forehead.
\'That was too fast… if he wants to kill, he doesn\'t need much to do…\' Kulung thought to himself as goosebumps covered him.
What he didn\'t know was the complex process that was currently running in Hu Dagao\'s body.
\'Alright, system get the implant running. Same as always.\' Lin Wu ordered in his mind.
~DING~

Lin Wu was interested seeing the bloodline that was mentioned by the system.
"Huh, Wide Claw Tiger Bloodline? So this is the descendant bloodline that the Hu clan ended up with…" Lin Wu was a bit surprised.
He had seen several tiger beasts so far and even then he had not expected such a bloodline to be close to one of the Four Guardian bloodlines, the White Tiger Bloodline.
\'No wonder they just call themselves the Hu clan instead of the Baihu clan. Even in their pride they don\'t dare take that surname…\' Lin Wu rednecked.
He didn\'t know whether this was the Hu clan being ignorant or smart, but at the very least they hid their original bloodline quite cleverly.
\'This seems to be a common trend for the three clans in the Ming Dao world. The Long clan as the Azure Serpent bloodline, the Hu clan has the Wide Claw Tiger Bloodline, the only one left is the Gui clan… they definitely don\'t have the Black Tortoise Bloodline. I wonder what they might have,\' Lin Wu pondered to himself.
"Well… I\'ll just see it when its time. For now I\'ll just deal with the goals in front of me…" Lin Wu muttered to himself, his voice being heard by Kulung too.
The words were relatively vague so Kulung couldn\'t grasp the full meaning, but he could at least tell that Lin Wu had sensed something that had interested him.
\'I just hope, I can be safe.\' That was the only thought the man had for now.
~SHING~
A few moments later, the spike that was embedded in Hu Dagao\'s forehead was withdrawn and the man woke up quickly. There were no traces of an injure and it was as if Lin Wu had never touched him at all.
It was a strange thing for Kulung to see as well, but he just attributed it to many of Lin Wu\'s abilities.
\'Feels like nothing…\' Hu Dagao touched his forehead and didn\'t feel any pain.
He even discovered that his body was now free to act and his control over spirit qi had returned too.
\'The brand… where is it?\' Hu Dagao tried to search for it within his body.
He scanned his Dantian first but didn\'t find it. He then scanned his organs and still didn\'t find it. A minute later he had checked the entirety of his body and there was still no sign of the brand.
"It\'s of no use. You are far too weak to sense my brand." Lin Wu chuckled.
~gulp~
It only made Hu Dagao more tense as he realized that this was only getting more complex.
