Shirong left the safe and used his spirit sense to activate the formation array. A few seconds later, the door of the safe faded away and in place of it was a plain wall. It was as if there was nothing there now. Even if someone were to touch it, they would have no way of knowing if there was even something there.

"Hmm, everything seems fine," Shirong said before leaving the study and heading back to the bedroom.

Five minutes after Shirong was gone, Lin Wu started to move.

~Phew~

"Seems like he's really gone and hearing his words it seems like he's gonna be busy the entire nigh… ~che~ Lucky bastard…" Lin Wu spoke with a bit of grudge.

"But now that he's gone… I can finally move around freely!" Lin Wu exclaimed as he jumped up morphing in the air to his worm form.

"Oof! While it has gotten easier being in the spear form and the armor form, this is still the best. Though what would be even better is if I was in my full size, that would really unwind my stiff joints…" Lin Wu muttered to himself as he moved toward the door of the safe.

He extended his spirit sense and found that it was blocked from the inside as well.

"Hmm as I thought, it's gonna be a bit difficult…" Lin Wu said before holding the handle of the safe's door with his tail.

He gave it a turn and the door opened. "Or not…"

But he didn't leave the safe yet, even if it was easy to leave the safe from the inside, he didn't know if it would be possible to get back inside again.

"System, analyze this." Lin Wu ordered.

~Ding~

——

ANALYZING: Illusory and restrictive formation arrays detected.

LINK FOUND: Creating virtual interface… please wait…

LINK ESTABLISHED: Virtual interface created successfully.

——

Because the formation array had Shirong's spirit sense brand, the system had no problem in replicating the same process as before and making a new interface. Now it was as if it was Shirong controlling the formation array when in reality it would be Lin Wu.

"Now we can leave safely," Lin Wu spoke before closing the door behind him.

"Ooh! Didn't know it could do this…" Lin Wu said upon seeing the door automatically disappearing after it was closed.

"Reminds of a certain series from my past life, which was quite famous…" Lin Wu muttered as he looked at the virtual interface.

~Ding~

——

Formation array virtual interface:-

1.Open Door

2.Close Door

3.Enable invisibility

4.Disable invisibility

5.Activate Defenses

6.Deactivate Defenses

7.Revoke Command permissions.

CURRENT STATUS: Options 2,3,6 are active.

——

"I guess activating defenses mean locking it, perhaps? And what's this last option? Revoke common permissions? Wait! Does this mean I can take over the control from Shirong?" Lin Wu wondered.

~Ding~

——

ANSWER: Yes, every virtual interface that has the 'Revoke Command permission' option can be overridden by the host. This depends on the difficulty of establishment of the interface, and certain ones may not be available at all.

The higher the permission the system acquires, the more functions will be available. Currently, in the case of this formation array, the host has all the permissions and the formation array had been linked by the system completely.

——

Seeing the system's answer made Lin Wu excited. He had seen the virtual interface it made for the spatial storage ring before, but it had no options. The only thing that it allowed him was to leave it at any time and hide his fluctuations from others.

"Hmm, the system has still not completed its previous analysis of the incident. I need to be cautious before I enter any spatial storage treasure." Lin Wu muttered to himself.

He then activated the defenses of the formation array and scanned the area with his spirit sense carefully. Thankfully, he had gotten plenty of practice in the banquet before and had become quite used to it now. There were a lot of people using spirit sense back at the banquet, which made it the easy for Lin Wu to hide his own in the crowd.

Though the thing was he was actually detected back there by a lot of people as he had brazenly tried to check their cultivation bases. These people were none other than the people of the clans and were a bit shocked at this.

Some of them even felt angry and tried to follow the spirit sense back to its source, only to find out that it was actually coming from Young Master Shirong. Seeing this made them calm down and actually even a bit excited. They thought that since Young master was paying them attention they perhaps he was happy with them or was interested in them.

This was another reason why everyone was so enthusiastic at the end of the banquet and was bidding Shirong goodbye, but not before inviting him to their own clans for banquets of their own. Shirong of course accepted them on the surface, but this underlying meaning was of polite rejection.

There was no way he had any more time to attend banquets. Unknown to him, Lin Wu had changed his perception in the eyes of the other clans and had actually increased it. The other clans now thought that Young master Shirong was quite humble and not arrogant at all.

"Hmm, there are formation arrays on the entire courtyard… should I take over them too? Or can I just leave without it, perhaps?" Lin Wu wondered.

Lin Wu thought for a moment before deciding to be on the safe side.

"Alright, system take over the formation array of the entire courtyard as well." Lin Wu ordered.

~Ding~

——

ANALYZING: Defensive, restrictive, offensive, and privacy formation arrays detected.

LINK FOUND: Creating virtual interface… please wait…

——

This time it was taking much longer than it had for the system to make the virtual interface for the safe. It was evident that the difficulty this time was much higher than normal.

"Let's take a look around here while the system works…" Lin Wu muttered and looked at the bookshelves.
