Chapter 20 Dynasty and Sects

"Rao, Master, It was our Sima family's fault. We also have innate in our clan. Please spare us our Sima clan would be grateful," the old man shouted hurriedly.

"Oh, are you threatening me with your trash clan? Even if there is a Master in your family, it won't survive. I also feel it's fun to destroy the clans."

A young voice sounded in everyone's ears. Lin Lee walked and appeared along with little Luo Mi.

Luo Jin and the other villagers were surprised.

Looking at the young, immature face of Lin Lee, the old Yao and the young man's face changed, falling into despair. 'It's over. Such a young innate. Also, he doesn't look like early innate. He is definitely a top innate expert. He is probably from those Immortal Sect.'

'Sima family has offended a monster,' the old Yao thought with a pale face, then glanced at Lin Lee, started kowtowing, and begging, "Rao master, I am just the guard of the Sima family. I don't have anything to do with them. I have a young and old to raise."

The face of the young master of the Sima family turned purple-blue because of anger and embarrassment, but he didn't dare to utter a word, looking at Lin Lee in fear.

Suddenly the old guard grabbed the Sima family young master and ran away toward outside the Luo House,

Shadow steps!!!

Afterimages flashed similar to a shadow, within few steps he left the premises using his step technique.

"Idiot running away from me." Lin Lee spoke speechlessly shook his head then raised his hand, a huge white palm condensed in the air with his heaven and earth aura amidst the frightened expression of everyone a white shadow appeared in the sky, reaching them and grabbed both of them.

Lin Lee then tightened his grip, instantly the huge aura palm clenched into fist, both of them turned into blood mist, then the aura fist shook, scattering the blood fertilizing the path far away.

The Luo villagers were frightened a little, and awe spread through their hearts, looking at Lin Lee.

Lin Lee glanced at the others, then looked in the direction of the young boy's corpse. He had died very miserably, with his whole body bones broken and even his muscles shredded. 'He was constantly thrashed by the whip,' Lin Lee thought to himself.

Looking at the crying Luo family, he sighed, recognizing the harsh reality of the world. 'Anyone can die if they don't have strength,' he mused, resolving to stay low-key and gain strength stronger than any other being in this dimension.

"Thank you, Your Excellency Lin. If our family has offended you somehow, I apologize," Luo Jin said sadly, bowing his head. His wife also knelt beside him.

Lin Lee sighed, raising his hand using his aura to let them stand up again. "Don't worry, I am not like others. There's no need to bow or kowtow in front of me," he assured them.

Surprised, Luo Jin clasped his hands gratefully, then glanced at his daughter, Luo Li, who was crying. Then, he made a request while clasping his hands. "I request Your Excellency to take my daughter as a follower. I have noticed that you don't have any maid or followers."

Lin Lee was surprised as he looked at Luo Li crying, then her face turned a little red as she fell silent, bowing her head and wiping away her tears suppressing the sadness in her heart, waiting nervously for her judgment.

'It is the rule of this world,' Lin Lee glanced at her expression and then the hopeful expression on the Luo Jin face and his wife. Also, villagers are also waiting for his reply.

He became thoughtful, considering the implications. 'If a strong man rejects a follower, if it's a boy, no one will hire him later not even as a slave, and if it's a girl, then she is considered bad luck and useless even burned alive in the end. If I reject them, then her fate may be the same. It seems I have to avoid visiting someone's house in the future. I can't always collect followers.' Lin Lee eye's become deeper.

Lin Lee then nodded calmly. "I am going to join some sect next. I will need a follower, and she can become one."

Surprised, Luo Jin and his wife became extremely excited. The villagers around were also surprised, and a few female villagers became envious as they looked at Luo Li.

After dealing with their son's death, the next day Lin Lee left with the village supply vehicles, taking Luo Li with him. As they said goodbye to her family, Lin Lee noticed Luo Li's silent and sad demeanor all the way.

"What is your Martial Spirit, Luo Li?" Lin Lee asked suddenly, breaking the silence.

Startled, Luo Li hurriedly summoned her spirit, a silver long round and sharp needle appearing in her hand. "Young Master, It's similar to my mother's needle, but I don't know its usage. I can't sew anything with it, as there is no place to put silk wire inside," she explained with a little confusion in her answer.

Lin Lee became speechless as he looked at the acupuncture needle. 'Another stupid girl,' he thought. 'She thinks her acupuncture needle is a sewing needle. Her father is also stupid. How come they haven't seen an acupuncture needle?'

Then Lin Lee realized thoughtfully glanced at silver needle floating in her hand, 'It's probably because of cheap healing medicine and pills. No one knows about acupuncture spirits. She can become a physician with it, and her cultivation talent may not be bad.'

"When we reach the capital city, I will teach you exercises," Lin Lee said calmly.

Luo Li was surprised, looking at Lin Lee. Then, a serene smile appeared on her face as she nodded and softly thanked him. "Thank you, Young Master Lin."

Looking at his side profile extremely handsome, her face turned visibly red. 'It seems Young Master Lin is a good person. No one teaches their slaves exercises. I must repay him well,' she thought to herself firmly.

Near the gate of the capital city, they walked inside after paying the toll. Lin Lee glanced at the bustling streets and the shops around, noticing different types of people, some riding their tamed beast.

Lin Lee became thoughtful. 'I can also create a vehicle from my nanobots and travel in it,"

Then he stopped beside a guard and asked about the Sima house. He found out dacades ago, it was one of the top four families in the kingdom, but now it is declined and outcasted by the capital, living in Sima Town outside the capital. Still, it is a strong clan, with innate masters sitting in that town.

Lin Lee then booked two rooms in a hotel that looked like a tavern and ate lunch alongside Luo Li.

"Have you heard? Immortal Xuan Sect is going to recruit disciples this year. There will be a trial conducted by them in the square of this capital city, our empire is lucky the Xuan sect chose us." a person sitting at a table a little far away from Lin Lee whispered to another person beside him proudly. Both were wearing kingdom guard dress.

the second guard, hearing the news, was surprised. "Seriously?" He asked, looking at the first guard nodding solemnly.

Then, the second guard frowned and asked, "What about the Four Elephant Academy in our Empire? Are they also recruiting?"

The first guard shook his head, replying, "In front of those immortal sects, these academies are nothing. There are four domains in the Shang Dynasty, and four immortal sects are suppressing those domains: Xuan Immortal Sect, Ascension Immortal Sect, Immortal Demon Sect, and Purple Mist Immortal Sect. Each sect has a Holy Lord and a Half Immortal sitting inside, suppressing their sect domain. Meanwhile, academies are limited to those thousands of kingdoms and empires inside each domain."

A yearning flashed across his face, then he sighed with regret. "But we don't have any chance with those immortal sects. In order to be admitted into an immortal sect, one needs to be 13 years old and at the 8th level Martial Artist Realm, which is not possible without unimaginable talent and a super martial spirit. Except for those big clans' younger generations who use heavenly resources, no one can reach the 8th level Martial Artist realm in a year's time."

Lin Lee raised his brow after hearing their conversation, an intriguing expression shrouding his face. 'Four Immortal Sects, Xuan Immortal Sect... Also, what is the sect domain? It seems I have to join this Xuan sect in order to find information about this world and other sects, especially the Ascension sect.' He thought to himself.

At night, Lin Lee left the tavern sneakily concealing his presence and aura. He flew toward the Sima family town outside the city. He wants to weed out the root of this trouble right away, lest it spread like flame.
