While many were displeased with Shirong keeping such sensitive information hidden, they couldn't do much when it was Lin Wu who had ordered that.
"Like I've said, the Shadow Calamity can control others and corrupt their minds. Which was also what the worshipers of the Skull God were doing in the Dread Coil marsh. They were controlled and were trying to control others too.
It would have been devastating if they actually had people controlling the sects or clans. Thus it was best to keep it secret until I knew for sure they weren't that spread." Lin Wu stated.
The people fell silent hearing this. All of them could understand the implications of such information and how sensitive it could be depending on the scope of infiltration.
"Thankfully, it seemed like the Shadow Calamity had failed to do much. The Skull god had only gained a fraction of his powers." Lin Wu said, reliving them all.
