Chapter 41 Dao Book

Chapter 41 Dao Book

The current ruler of the Shang Dynasty, Shang Yan, known as the Fire Lord.

"Yes, your majesty, it's from the south domain." The courtier replied respectfully kneeling.

"That Chu Xuan did he took the last step? But Dynasty luck isn't affected; it seems he isn't the one." Ruler Shang Yan brown furrowed, rubbed his black goatee, then ordered majestically. "Send General Li incharge of the south domain to visit the Xuan Immortal Sect; find out the details and tell him to deal with the Xuan Sect thunderously."

"Yes, your majesty," The courtier nodded, stood up respectfully, backed away without turning, and left the throne room.

"A new immortal artifact, huh?" Ruler Shang Yan muttered, looking at the ring around his wrist, which was trembling constantly, as if it would break the seal at any moment.

This is the Shang Dynasty Immortal Artifact. It is disturbed that after all these years, another immortal artifact appeared in its domain, exuding an aura and challenging its dominance.

Suddenly, the Shang Immortal Ring stopped trembling and calmed down.

"It disappeared." Shang Yan flinched and glanced at the surroundings in the throne hall, feeling the air was relaxed. He then glanced at the other respectfully standing courtier and ordered, "Go inspect all the borders of the Shang Dynasty."

"Yes, your majesty," another courtier bowed and left.

...

Inside the leaf peak,

"Phew, I almost went into trouble." Lin Lee muttered and wiped his sweat, looking at a small book floating in his hand without any aura or horrible sensation like before.

Looking at the dark cloud receding from the distant sky,

"I didn't know the Holy Treasure would also invoke heaven tribulation; I thought only promotion to the Holy Realm would invoke it. It seems I was careless; next time I will gather information, then take action, or I will fall into huge trouble." Lin Lee muttered thoughtfully, T/his chapter is updat/ed by nov(ê(l)biin.c/o/m

'Thankfully, My bead spirit controlled the Dao Book and concealed its aura, or it would be a disaster now; even leaf peaks would be damaged; still, everyone in the sect must have been alarmed.' Lin Lee, fortunately, sighed in relief.

Lin Lee named the natal book "Dao Book." He felt such a name would suit it well.

After a while,

He stood up and appeared outside the residence, looking at the sun rising from a corner.

Lin Lee shook his head and then asked, "Nothing, Elder Sister Min; I was just thinking, will those Shang Dynasty officers inspect the senior sister's residence?"

"Yes, they will, and you both should fully cooperate with them; don't act out of way; our sect will not go against the Shang Dynasty," Chu Lan replied instead of her calmly.

'What's the use of No. 1 in management? If they act like slaves to a dynasty,' Lin Lee thought, then nodded calmly.

"Master, I also want to reveal something. After reviewing the three works of art you have given me, I have reached the fourth stage of life art, the branches of life." Lin Lee then hesitated and said, raising his hand, that a seed, root, and stem of life appeared, and then three thousand branches protruded out of the trunk, shocking Chu Min and Chu Lan.

Chu Min raised her hand near her mouth, staring at the bare tree in Lin Lee's palm without any leaves. A dark light flickered in her eyes. 'Father was right; heaven is really unfair. I comprehended day and night for 20 years and finally reached the 5th stage, the leaves of life, and it will take me 100 years to reach the 6th level, the soul of life. Yet he reached the 4th level in a few months only.'

Then her expression darkened more. 'Anyway, such heaven-defying talent will soon be mine,' Chu Lan suppressed her heartbeat, then glanced at Chu Min's dark expression. She secretly sighed, then glanced at Lin Lee and praised, "Very good apprentice; you really didn't disappoint me."

'So he was excited for that; I thought he knew something about immortal artifact.' Chu Lan thought disappointingly in her heart. Just now she sensed Lin Lee's restlessness and almost came to a conclusion.

"Yeah, little brother, congratulations; you are a genius. I am happy for you. It took me 10 years to reach the 4th stage of this art. Chu Min spoke with a light smile, then her expression returned to its usual calm.

"Thank you, Master and Elder Sister Min." Lin Lee thanked with a smile and sighed in relief, 'I successfully diverted Master's thinking, or she would have already guessed it by now.'

After learning Lin Lee reached the 4th level and was excited for that, Chu Lan lost interest and let them go.

Then they dispersed and returned to their residence; Chu Lan also forbade them from leaving the peak.

...

Soon, time passed.

A lot of eagle-horse beasts appeared floating above the leaf peak, each beast exuding the Beast King's aura, and the front one was exuding the Holy Beast's aura.

Lin Lee appeared outside his residence along with Luo Li, then glanced at the floating beast's and a few individuals in specific dark armor with red markings.

Then he glanced at the majestic man in front, sitting on the Holy Beast, wearing red armor with black markings opposite the other officer behind him. There was Shang and South written on both sides of their armor.

'He is a general or some kind of higher official.' Lin Lee thought to himself, then glanced at other officer's riding beast's behind him.

Chu Lan also appeared floating with Chu Min and landed in front of the disciples.

Lin Lee became confused looking at them. 'Where are sister Liu Rong and Yan Xin?'
