The Immortality Flower
The Recruitment of Sect Disciples

"You must know what the king of Jin was like, a man who had my only daughter who wanted to be betrothed to the prince of the Empire but I refused him until war broke out. She is your mother, Jin Li Ying"

Lou Shi was surprised that his mother was the daughter of the Jin king who was considered a traitor by some who supported blindly the Imperial court.

"But that was hundreds of years ago, how could your daughter possibly live to be my mother" asked Lou Shi.

If you ask about him, then you should wonder how I expanded the territory of the Wu dynasty, "said Dan Yi.

"I received a blessing when I was training on the top of the mountain which is now the cursed territory of the Wu dynasty, until my daughter became immortal as long as she had not given birth, "Dan Yi replied looking at Lou Shi's bewildered face.

"My mother died because of myself? " ask Lou Shi.

"No! He wanted revenge against the Emperor's bloodline at the expense of himself, his vision far from that of an ordinary human, "Dan Yi denied Lou Shi's thoughts.

Lou Shi was speechless thinking about everything possible from the previous events. Thinking about the level of strength of his mother and his grandfather.

"How could you lose to the Emperor? Sorry, I'm not used to calling grandfather, " said Lou Shi.

"No problem. I lost to the Emperor because of the help from the sect, " replied Dan Yi.

"Sect?" ask Lou Shi.

"Yes," Dan Yi replied.

"The conspiracy of two powers? " inner Lou Shi.

"What made you enter the cursed territory? I just know that my daughter told me that one day you would come here, " Dan Yi said.

"I was betrothed to Hua Li's daughter by the Emperor, yet I had previously joined a noble sect. The noble Sect Leader hearing the news that I was betrothed by the Emperor made him give me a choice. The sect master can free me from the Emperor's snare but in return I must marry his daughter. The time is little, when the ceremony of maturity, the Emperor will announce an official matchmaking, "said Lou Shi.

"BEGG!!! "

Some of the high-quality wooden furniture was smashed to pieces by Dan Yi's strength.

"How dare they bully my granddaughter! " angry Dan Yi.

"You take it easy, go back to Lou's house. When the Emperor will announce your match, I will oppose him. Who still dares to challenge me, "said Dan Yi.

A group of people knelt in front of Dan Yi dressed in black like a darkness knight.

"Time for the Jin palace to rise again, activate the outer formation of the palace! " the orders of Dan Yi.

"The staff received orders"

And Yi brought Lou Shi to the main hall of the palace, an intricate formation pattern was created underneath.

"The Jin palace will rise up to electrify the Wu dynasty"

The power of each of Dan Yi's forces shot into the sky creating a gigantic cube surrounding the entire cursed territory. And Yi opened the formation within the palace making a great tremor happen in the cursed territory. A huge palace slowly emerged from within the ground with a gate inscribed with Jin Palace gilded.

"You don't worry, the palace of king Jin is no less luxurious and powerful than the Imperial palace" said Dan Yi.

"Gather together!! " the orders of Dan Yi.

Thousands of people gathered in the hall and others outside the palace.

"Time for the Jin palace to rise again, I will lead you myself!! " cry Dan Yi.

"The staff is ready to take orders!! " say them in unison.

Lou Shi looked at Dan Yi with eyes full of pride and haru. Finally there was someone who defended him despite opposing great power as an enemy.

"Go back, do your usual activities" Dan Yi said.

"Sister!"

Someone looked up when they heard the call. The little boy with the candy ran over to the tall boy.

"Xiao Ahn's... "

The little boy gave the candy he brought to the man.

"Thank you.... "

"Lin Huang!! "

"What's? "

"The recruitment of outer sect disciples was carried out for 3 days, you are the most talented person among us"

Lin Huang was not interested in the slightest bit about the recruitment of a noble sect, he was getting ready to set out in search of the ruins of the Dragon God Emperor temple.

"I'm not interested in the sect, there are urgent things that I should do, " replied Lin Huang.

"Come, if you are accepted into the sect, we will get a blessing from you... "

Lin Huang thought of his friend's input, on one hand he wanted to look for the ruins of the Dragon God temple, but on the other he wanted his village to get the attention of the government.

"Alright." replied Lin Huang.

His friend cheered happily then went to tell the others that Lin Huang was willing. Lin Huang continued his previously delayed activity of cutting wood.

At night Lin Huang intended to rest, but the knock on the door made him reluctant to fall asleep. When the door opened, many citizens and children lined up neatly in front of Lin Huang's house with a few sacks of rice and wheat.

"you guys? " ask Lin Huang.

"Good fight, man, this is all you can give. Take it easy, we'll take care of your house even if you're not home"

The villagers were excited when they heard the news that Lin Huang was willing to fight to become a noble sect disciple.

"Thank you for your kindness, I can't repay you one by one. The rice and wheat you gave me I received, when winter comes can become a stock of food, " said Lin Huang.

The residents return to their homes. It was time for Lin Huang to rest after the exhausting activity for a day.

The time came, the capital was more bustling as would-be sect disciples gathered from different regions of the kings' dominions under the auspices of the Wu dynasty. Various noble families occupied the best inn in the capital, while Lin Huang was still in his home due to his close proximity to the sect.

Lou Shi was wearing a sect disciple robe, his identity as a sect master disciple earned him special treatment as well as the freedom to rule over other sect disciples.

Xin Yu who had always been near Lou Shi made everyone present think of them as a compatible couple. The royal family came to the sect occupying a special seat that had been provided by the sect. Princess Hua Lin came along with the Empress.

The number one daughter of the Wu dynasty attended the opening ceremony standing beside the Empress. His face is charming with dark blue silk.

If Princess Hua Lin is number one, then the second one is Xin Yu. Their talents differed slightly, but Hua Lin was superior to being born into a royal family.

Lou's residence will soar into the sky in the near future, all thinking that heaven blesses the Lou clan.

"The ceremony is about to begin, attendees please prepare! "

The emperor stood up to give a word of welcome as the opening of the event. The recruitment of noble sect disciples had begun. Lin Huang along with the others followed the directions of their seniors. Participants formed a group including Lin Huang into one of the groups.

"You will be sent to the three thousand paths of virtue, the ancestors of the noble sects will choose you directly. The sky as a witness! " say the show host.

Formations sprung up under the feet of each group, Lin Huang was sent to the three thousand virtue paths that the event guide referred to.
