Chapter 320: Triad Household (1)
Ruella was comprehending what D was conveying. But she could not find a reason why he was not answering the question directly.
"But what you said does not answer my doubt."
Hearing this, D raised his torso and continued-
"Youngsters of Earth ranged from maximum maturity to stupid and reckless as f##k. Lee Shen belonged to the second category. The loss of his parents at a very early age made a deep scar in his mind and made him have unstable emotional swings.
Fortunately, his grandfather Lee Aiguo, a kung-fu expert, trained his grandson in martial arts and created a sense of balance in him. The training proved extremely useful and provided Lee with a perspective of justice.
In a nutshell, Lee Shen was a silent guy that goes unnoticed in an everyday crowd. But what made him stand out was his urge to help others and readily accept the consequences of the deeds he had done.
It was his grandfather's tutelage that gave him a reason to calm down and help others in distress. I still remember Lee Aiguo's words etched deep in his hearts, "Help those who stand beside you, protect if you must. Correct those who stand against you, defeat if you must".
The teaching, at some point, began to increase his soul density by a very small margin. Since then he had been thoroughly refining himself through thoughts and actions.
When Lee Shen was poisoned at the competition, fate brought the monk there to rescue him from the clutches of death.
After reaching the monastery at Kathmandu, his spiritual development was progressing invisibly. Within a year, he was healed and his soul was strengthened more.
Then the unexpected event with the Amortals occurred!
The incidents that followed that, along with me hiding in his body and escaping back to my home dimension, were too much for his human brain to comprehend. Thus, he struggled to assimilate the information into his brain which resulted in him displaying his immature side hiding deep inside.
After my integration with his soul, his soul density rose to a whole new level, untouched by humans of Earth. And it was this unusually high soul density that cemented the existence of the system in his being."
Ruella was silently pondering on the information disclosed by the Dimension Sovereign.
"I know I'm not a genius, but I am unable to find anything important from your narration."
Hudson spoke with a deep frown on his face. Seeing this, D replied-
"Ruella have healed his mind and body to a great extent. Now it is his turn to heal his soul.
The atmosphere of Utopia would help him to regain his soul's perfection. The methods of meditation he had learnt from the monastery would prove their usefulness. Interacting with the beasts would eventually refine his resolve.
And most importantly, the training and sense of justice he had been imparted with will play a vital role in nurturing his soul's purity. Everything will go smoothly as I have foreseen unless an idiot decides to flip his switch."
"Then?"
Ruella's query was quick and at the very second, D finished his narration. There was no reply but a peel of laughter.
"Then the one who flipped the switch will sleep in the 6-foot ditch."
D continued to laugh and then felt someone's breath on his back. The untamed demeanour of the wind gave away who it was.
Before D could dodge, the massive jaws came and gripped the sword's sheath with the speed of lightning. The creature pushed its legs to the ground and scurried away like the wind.
"Fero...drop me now or no food for you!"
D's helpless wail rose from the sword and Fero slowed down. He came to a halt with the sword still in his jaw.
In the reality.
The team that went with Weily Triad consisted of adventurers and cultivators. Though they are normally known to create repulsions, the team under the Triad household was balanced and cooperated well.
On the ground was the convoy with Weily in the carriage. Above them, in the sky, was the three Draconic Wyverns and the Perrafin following the convoy.
"Quite a view, isn't it?"
Though it was an island, it was larger than Sri Lanka. This deduction made Lee Shen wonder what the actual size of Intellus might be.
Zena flew close to Pyro upon whom Lee Shen sat. Though she couldn't give a structured verbal reply, her conveyance was through the noises of purring.
[That is the Triad mansion.]
About one and a half miles away, Hudson detected the building familiar from his past. It had changed a lot in size, he commented.
When the convoy on the ground turned to the road that led to the Triad household mansion, Pyro picked up speed and the beasts followed him. Zena flew through them like a skilful acrobat and enjoyed the acceleration.
The Draconic Wyverns closing in on the mansion alerted the guards and they helplessly gripped on their spears. Their hearts became clouded by fear of the appearance of the infamous beasts that they have been talking about.
The trio and Zena rounded the mansion three times for an overall view and this was enough for the convoy to reach the gates of the mansion.
The guards saw the carriage and the gates were opened. When the carriage came to a halt in front of the mansion, Weily came out of it and saw the colossal beasts descending on the front yard.
When Zena caught the sight of the fountain in the front yard, she quickly paced towards it and drank from it. Following her, Cryo, Aero and Pyro moved to drink water respectively.
While their landing was silent and gentle, the violent winds they produced to attain that achievement was not small. The dashing currents smashed against the walls of the mansions and the window panes trembled. The beasts that arrived with the carriage displayed unrest.
And those who came out of the mansion to investigate what was happening saw three humongous monsters drinking water from their fountain!
