Protect Our Clan Leader

Chapter 2752: Chapter 9: If We Can’t Be Brothers, We Can Be Sisters!

...

However, this sense of annoyance did not last long. In just a moment, Yin Lingzhu’s heart suddenly became clear.

Wait a minute~ Even if this Divine Martial Wang family is a branch of the Ying Clan, that was something from so long ago.

Moreover, it seems likely that their bloodline came from an ancient union between an ancestor and a woman from the Ying Clan.

The bloodline of the human race has been intermarrying since ancient times, and having each other’s bloodlines is quite normal. The differences in bloodline concentration are simply because a higher bloodline awakening level resonates more with a powerful ancestor’s bloodline.

Situations like this are not uncommon in the Sacred Domain, as long as several generations above are not direct relatives, it doesn’t affect marriage nor is it taboo.

Yin Lingzhu’s heart was instantly much more at ease.

But as soon as she felt relieved, she felt something was amiss again.

Yin Lingzhu, what nonsense are you thinking in your head? Could it be that you really have feelings for Bao Sheng, my virtuous brother?

For a moment, Yin Lingzhu’s heart was in turmoil, feeling quite chaotic.

"Young Master, are you alright?" The Taiyi Hunyuan Seal’s artifact spirit called out softly, feeling inexplicably nervous.

Seeing that the Young Master seemed a bit dazed, could it be we chose the wrong person?

"I’m fine." Yin Lingzhu quickly shook off the distracting thoughts and turned to a very important matter, "Hunyuan Seal, do you know where the Great Yuan Dao Book is?"

Although the Primal Chaos Divine Artifact is extremely precious, the Great Yuan Dao Book is naturally more important, as it is crucial for a family’s Taoist Master-level heritage and advancement.

Upon hearing this question, the Taiyi Hunyuan Seal’s face turned distressed: "I used to be with the Great Yuan Dao Book, hiding in the Endless Heavenly Abyss."

As the Hunyuan Seal spoke, everyone finally understood the situation.

The Taiyi Hunyuan Seal and the Great Yuan Dao Book were originally together, but later encountered a terrifying forbidden entity in the Endless Heavenly Abyss. The Great Yuan Dao Book was trapped while the Taiyi Hunyuan Seal, through luck, escaped through a space vortex.

Afterwards, it drifted about aimlessly and unknowingly ended up near here, leading to today’s events.

After hearing the Taiyi Hunyuan Seal’s story, Yin Lingzhu’s expression became grave.

Trapped in a frightfully forbidden place?

To evoke such immense fear in the Taiyi Hunyuan Seal, it must be something far from ordinary.

You must understand, the Taiyi Hunyuan Seal is a Primal Chaos Divine Artifact. Even without control, it can easily overpower ordinary True Immortals, though it would struggle against mid-late stage True Immortals. Against a general Sacred Supreme, it may not win, but it wouldn’t find the opponent frightening either.

The entity that provokes insurmountable fear in the Taiyi Hunyuan Seal must be at least a Level Sixteen existence, very possibly a Level Seventeen Taoist Master-level being.

However, this is normal.

If the Endless Heavenly Abyss were easy to explore, the ancestors of the Ying Clan would have retrieved the Great Yuan Dao Book and the Taiyi Hunyuan Seal ages ago. It’s because the Endless Heavenly Abyss is extremely dangerous, and blindly venturing in could easily encounter a forbidden terror, that after all these years, they’ve failed to recover them.

The only bit of good news is that although the Taiyi Hunyuan Seal has been drifting aimlessly, it roughly remembers the location of that forbidden terror.

This way, they at least have a target, rather than searching blindly like before.

In the future, as long as their strength is adequate, they will have the opportunity to retrieve the family’s Great Yuan Dao Book.

"Lingzhu, do not worry too much." The projection of Taoist Master Taichu comforted, "In the future, after I pass on the Taichu heritage to you, I will have no more concerns. At that time, I will venture deep into the Sky Abyss and see if I can recover the Ying Clan Dao Book."

As for now, even Taoist Master Taichu dares not to rashly venture into the depths of the Endless Heavenly Abyss, not because entering would necessarily mean certain death, but due to the worry that if he perishes there, the Taichu Dao Book would also be lost, for which he would be eternally guilty.

Once the Dao Book is passed on in the future, his concerns will lessen significantly. At that time, recovering a Dao Book lineage for the human race would be an excellent outcome.

Yin Lingzhu was deeply moved by these words: "Lingzhu thanks Master."

"No worries, the ancestors of the Ying Clan did a great service for the human race." Taoist Master Taichu sighed, "Back then, if it weren’t for her elder defending against the pursuers and buying the predecessors time to survive and develop, there would be no Sacred Domain today."

He paused, then added, "The matter here is temporarily settled, and my projection cannot last much longer. You must leave the Endless Heavenly Abyss promptly. Do not tarry here for long, or you may attract danger, which would be dire indeed."

With that, just as Taoist Master Taichu was about to depart, Wang Baoguang stopped him.

"Master Taoist, it’s unkind of you." Wang Baoguang said with a cheeky grin.

"How am I unkind?" Taoist Master Taichu’s anger flared upon seeing his expression, and he glared at him.

Since this troublemaker joined the Dao Palace, the environment there has rapidly changed, permeating the entire Cloud Peng lineage, following him to establish that truth magazine.

Were it not for the fact that this truth magazine, although flawed, also had its benefits, Taoist Master Taichu would have long since abolished it.
