As Tian Lee started walking towards the main hall, he was greeted by many servants on the way. Although the members of the Lee clan despised Tian Lee, they were only a few in number. As a kind young master, Tian had garnered himself a good name among the servants.
"Big brother Tian!" a cute voice came from behind. Hearing the voice, Tian turned around to greet Meng Lee. The charming little girl hugged Tian Lee and asked him "Big brother, are you going to meet grandpa?" Tian Lee responded saying, "Yes! Do you want to come with me?" Meng Lee smiled and nodded her head in response.
She always loved her big brother Tian. He was kind, gentle and always played with her and never scolded. Both of them entered the main hall where there were many elders of the Lee clan standing alongside Tian Lee’s father, and grandfather.
They were all discussing something with the Divine dragon sect Elder. The Elder was an old man with the cultivation of spiritual realm, tenth stage, and almost a monarch, whereas the Old Lee was already at monarch realm. The sect elder was thus addressing the Old Man Lee with reverence.
When Tian Lee entered with Meng Lee in tow, Old Man Lee smiled. "Elder Yi, that is my granddaughter that I was talking about.” he said ,signalling for Meng lee to come to him. Meng Lee went towards them, and Elder Yi looked at her appraisingly and nodded his head in approval.
"Lee clan always provides our country with great seed. Along with her brother Han Lee, and her sister Mo lee, she will also be a genius of our Divine dragon sect " the Elder said. Han Lee and Mo Lee were his second son's children and were both sixteen years old and have already shown a genius level of cultivation growth. For old Lee, they were his pride.

Elder Yi’s eyes fell on Tian Lee who was standing silently. Noticing this, Old Lee said, "He is my first grandson, Tian Lee". Hearing Tian Lee’s name, the Elder realized that he was the famous young master of Lee family who never took the martial path, and instead chose that of a normal mortal. Old lee further spoke, "If Elder Yi can find some place for him in Divine sect, I will be really grateful"
“Tch! Puny mortal” The elder thought to himself. Yet, he maintained a calm demeanour as he did not want to offend Old Lee. Elder Yi acted as if he was thinking and then spoke," There is a librarian post which is yet to be filled in the sect, if young master Lee is so willing". On this proposition, Old Lee beamed with happiness. He can now rest in peace, as Tian Lee can lead a good life in Divine sect. Even if it’s a simple post, it still had the power of the sect behind it.
"No more words, Elder Yi, our Lee clan will be much grateful for your kindness”, Old Lee said in delight. There was a path now formed for his grandson. He turned towards Tian Lee, expecting an answer.
"I refuse." Tian Lee said. Those words not only shocked Old Lee but also everyone present. "What an audacity, young fool!" Old Lee shouted in fury. Everyone present there were shocked. "It is alright Patriarch Lee, he is too young to know the value of this" said Elder Yi with a contemptuous gaze aimed at Tian Lee.. "Hmph! little beast! " Elder Yi murmured.
“Forgive him for me, Elder Yi," Old Lee spoke in an apologetic tone. "You get lost, you fool!" He shouted at Tian Lee. But Tian Lee had already left without a word , which further angered Old Lee.
As for Tian Lee’s father, he just sighed as he smiled wryly.
Tian Lee returned to his courtyard. As he entered his house, the shadow arrived again. "Master" the shadow greeted Tian Lee. "Kill that Elder Yi" the gentle voice of Tian Lee now turned cold, as he commanded the shadow. "As you wish, master." the shadow responded and disappeared again.
"Plotting against my clan, huh? That's unforgivable, old fool".
