After returning to Lanyan City, the first thing Lin Muyu did was to write down a complete volume of the Divine Tomes of the Laws of Fire, Wind, Lightning, and Life based on her memory. However, there was only one volume, and it was kept by Tang Xiaoxi. Qin Yin and Tang Xiaoxi studied it together. Thus, the inscriptions on the Divine Tomes of the Eight Laws in the Heavenly Tome Forest were all under the control of the Ze Tian Palace.
In the three days after returning to Lanyan City, Lin Muyu tried many times to write a Divine Tome, but she failed again and again. The key to writing a book was related to one's state of mind, but not every inscription could draw upon the power of heaven and earth. In three days, Lin Muyu inscribed nearly twenty tool embryos, but only two books were completed. One was a middle-grade Earth Book, and the other was a high-grade Earth Book. The rest were all failures.
On the other hand, Qin Yin had completed three books, one low-grade Earth Book and two top-grade Spiritual Books. This made Tang Xiaoxi extremely envious. After a trip to the Heavenly Tome Forest, Qin Yin's cultivation in Heavenly Tomes was already firmly above Tang Xiaoxi's.
…
In the afternoon, Jin Xiaotang appeared in the Valiant Dragon Legion's camp. She was dressed in a beautiful green robe, and when her gaze fell on the embryos in front of Lin Muyu, she could not help but light up with joy.
"Wow … is this a high-grade Earth Book? This … this is a middle-grade Earth Book, and there's also a low-grade Earth Book. These two … are these two embryos top-grade Spiritual Books? Oh my god, were all these Divine Tomes written by Brother Yu? "Jin Xiaotang was overjoyed.
"Not all of them."
Lin Muyu did not tell her that three of them were written by Empress Qin Yin. After all, this was too shocking. It was too early for news that Empress Qin Yin was well-versed in the Law of Light to spread. She said, "Only two were written by me, and the rest were written by my friends. Xiaotang, how much can these Divine Tomes sell for?"
"I'm not sure about the others, but this high-grade Wind Law tome should be worth at least this much." She extended her index finger.
"Ten million?" Lin Muyu was overjoyed. "Can you really sell it for that much?"
"Maybe more expensive."
Jin Xiaotang said, "Up until now, very few of the masters in the Heavenly Tome Pavilion have been able to write an Upper Tier Earth Tome. This Upper Tier Earth Tome is probably the most powerful Heavenly Tome in Lanyan City. Brother Yu, are you sure you want to sell this book?"
Lin Muyu muttered to herself for a moment. She thought about how powerful the Earth Tome was. If it were to fall into the hands of a thief, the consequences would be unthinkable. She said, "I'm not selling it. It's just a display item to increase the Chamber of Commerce's popularity."
"Alright!"
Jin Xiaotang readily agreed.
Lin Muyu smiled. "In the future, don't sell the Tomes of Heaven that I write that are above the level of Earthly Tomes. They are only for display. When there's a war in the future, you have to return all of them to me. These Tomes of Heaven are for killing, not for display."
"Yes, Xiaotang knows. Does Big Brother Yu still want to engrave it?"
"Of course."
Lin Muyu had a card up her sleeve. Her attainments in engraving seemed to be above the Heavenly Tome. Furthermore, engraving was a passive ability, so it was not impossible to use it to earn money. Perhaps she could only rely on engraving to earn money in the future.
…
The next day, Heavenly Tome Pavilion.
"What?!"
Ji Lin's hand trembled slightly, and the tea in his teacup spilled onto the ground. He looked up at Ji Shang and said, "Shang 'er, say that again. Did I hear wrongly? The Purple Flower Chamber of Commerce displayed a Upper Tier Earth Tome?"
"Yes, Grandfather." Ji Shang said respectfully, "It's a Upper Tier Earth Tome of the Law of Wind. It's very rich in spiritual power. Once it activates the Power of Heaven and Earth, its might will be unimaginable. I really don't know who was able to engrave such a Heavenly Tome Pavilion."
At the side, the Liu Residence's Patriarch, Liu Yan, took a sip of tea and said, "Lord Steward, it looks like there's another capable person in Lanyan City besides the Heavenly Tome Pavilion … It's a pity that such a talent was not used by our Heavenly Tome Pavilion."
Ji Lin said, "Does Lord Liu Yan know who wrote this Upper Tier Earth Tome?"
"I don't know." Liu Yan said, "But I can deduce that this person must be inextricably linked to the Purple Flower Chamber of Commerce. Otherwise, he wouldn't have displayed this priceless artifact embryo in the Purple Flower Chamber of Commerce. Hmph, isn't he afraid of someone snatching it?"
Ji Shang said, "Lord Liu Yan might not know this, but the Purple Flower Chamber of Commerce has at least two hundred Divine Temple experts guarding it. Let alone snatching it, they can't even take a glance at it."
Liu Yan stroked his white beard and said, "Steward Ji Lin, the waters of Lanyan City's Heavenly Tome Realm are getting murkier and murkier. I'm afraid this isn't a good thing. It's obvious that someone wants to establish a faction outside of the Heavenly Tome Pavilion. If we don't handle this matter properly, I'm afraid that the Heavenly Tome Pavilion will fall out of favor with Her Highness. At that time, I'm afraid that everything we have will disappear in the blink of an eye."
"Oh? Does Lord Liu Yan have an idea? "
"We must find out who this person is as soon as possible and recruit him into the Heavenly Tome Pavilion. Also …" Liu Yan's eyes shone brightly as he said, "There's also news from Yihe Country's Xiyang City. Man Ning held a Heavenly Tome Conference, and a person called the 'Li Residence Protector' wrote a supreme grade book on the Law of Fire. He then fled Xiyang City, and some people suspect that he has already entered the empire's borders. If Lord Steward can find this Li Residence Protector and invite him to join the Heavenly Tome Pavilion with great rewards and status, then Her Highness will value our Heavenly Tome Pavilion even more, right?"
Ji Lin slowly nodded, "What Lord Liu Yan said is extremely correct. I'll immediately send people to investigate and find this Li Residence Protector and have him work for us."
"Alright, then this old man wishes Lord Steward success in advance."
"Haha, Lord Liu Yan is too polite."
… …
At dusk, the setting sun shone on the pavilions of the Spiritual Medicine Department like fire.
Inside the pavilion, there was a small table filled with delicacies. There was also a pot of boiling Rock Mutton. Chu Yao had a happy expression as she looked at Lin Muyu and Tang Xiaoxi with a grin, saying, "I haven't seen Yu for a long time, where did he go to cultivate?"
Lin Muyu said, "He went to Lingnan."
"Oh?" Chu Yao blinked her starry eyes and did not ask further, smiling, "Looks like Yu's cultivation should have improved quite a bit."
"Yes."
Lin Muyu looked at Chu Yao and said, "On the other hand, Big Sister Chu Yao, how is your Imperial Sword Technique?"
Chu Yao chuckled, "Second Heavenly Realm, I tested my strength three days ago at Temple Deacon Xuanyuan Hong's place. I have the strength of a level 78 Heavenly King. He even invited me to become a deacon in the Temple if I don't want to work in the Spiritual Medicine Department."
"Hahaha …" Lin Muyu chuckled, "Not being a Great Deacon of the Spiritual Medicine Department and becoming a deacon in the Temple, Great Deacon Xuanyuan Hong really knows how to joke. Right, Xiao Xi and I still have a piece of meat here, leave it for Big Sister Chu Yao to help you cultivate. I hope you can step into the Saint realm as soon as possible, then you will be able to maintain your beauty forever!"
"I want to too!" Chu Yao pursed her lips and said, "The people in the Spiritual Medicine Division said that if I can't step into the Saint Domain within these two years, then it will be too late. At that time, even if I step into the Saint Domain, I will be an old woman. Wuwu, you said that after thirty years, when I step into the Saint Domain, I will become Grandma Chu Yao … And looking at you and Little Xi who are still so young, I will want to die …"
At this point, Chu Yao's voice was indescribably sorrowful.
Lin Muyu could not help but smile, "No, no, Xiao Xi and I will not watch you grow old!"
Tang Xiaoxi also smiled, saying, "Right, if Big Sister Chu Yao needs anything, Mu and I will do our best to help. Right … I have good news for you, Big Sister Chu Yao."
"Oh? What good news … "
Tang Xiaoxi sat up straight, puffed out her round chest, and said with a smile, "Outside the Demon Subduing Pass, the Demon Clan guards the Forest of the Infinity Edge, and now they have joined the Savage Tribe to guard the Forest of the Infinity Edge. Just half a month ago, a wandering traveler from the desert said that he had seen a powerful hermit in the desert, and the martial art he was good at was Lord Chu Huaiyin's unique martial art — the [Star Picking Finger]. So half a month ago, I entrusted the Demon Clan to look for this hermit, bringing a large sum of money and a sword used by Lord Chu Huaiyin as a keepsake, hoping to find the mental cultivation method of the [Star Picking Finger] from him."
As she said this, Tang Xiaoxi paused for a moment, and then said with a smile, "The [Star Picking Finger] is a unique martial art, and the mental cultivation method naturally has its own marvelous aspects. If Big Sister Chu Yao can learn the [Star Picking Finger], I believe it will not be a problem for you to step into the Saint realm in one or two years."
"Big Brother's [Star Picking Finger] …"
Chu Yao was slightly absent-minded, and then she raised her head and said gratefully, "If Big Sister Xiao Xi can find the mental cultivation method of the [Star Picking Finger], Chu Yao will be eternally grateful, and the [Star Picking Finger] will definitely become the unique martial art of the Chu Clan, passed down from generation to generation."
Tang Xiaoxi couldn't help but laugh, "Good, good, that's for sure!"
Suddenly, she seemed to think of something, and said with a smile, "Passed down from generation to generation of the Chu Clan? It seems that … Big Sister Chu Yao has already found a man to marry, right? "
"Ah?"
Chu Yao was stunned, and said, "No, Xiao Xi, you are thinking too much …"
As she said that, Chu Yao looked at Lin Muyu faintly, and immediately, Lin Muyu was stunned, and she almost spat out the wine that she had just taken a sip of. She said, "Big Sister Chu Yao, are you thinking of something crazy?"
Chu Yao smiled without saying a word. She was also shocked by the crazy idea in her heart, but after thinking about it carefully, she felt that it was a great temptation, and it was indeed feasible.
After experiencing the upheavals of the past few years, Chu Yao had also become stronger and more independent, but the thoughts in her heart had also become more stubborn. Her thoughts were very simple, if she couldn't give birth to the child of the person she loved, then what was the point of being a woman? But this idea was too bold, and she had to eat a piece of goat meat to calm herself down!
…
Just as they were about to finish eating, suddenly, a person wearing the badge of a Golden Star instructor from the Holy Sanctum walked over, and respectfully cupped his fists to Lin Muyu, and said, "Great Deacon, something happened in the Beast Taming Division, would you like to go and take a look?"
"I am no longer the Great Deacon." Lin Muyu frowned, "Change the way you address me from now on to Commander."
"Yes!"
The Golden Star instructor bowed respectfully, and said, "Something really happened in the Beast Taming Division!"
"Okay, I will go now!"
Lin Muyu stood up, and so did Tang Xiaoxi and Chu Yao, presumably to go and see what had happened.
