Chapter 4 Red Jade Box

Lim Su Ren didn't know how to react. She had already learned about Lim Shotian not being her biological father from the White Flame, but hearing it from Lim Shotian still shocked her.

Facing his back towards Lim Su Ren, Lim Shotian said, " Su Ren, I am sorry for keeping you in dark about your biological parents. It was not my intention but your parents. Both of your parents were my closest friends, your father is my sworn brother, he was a genius cultivator. As for your mother, she was a peerless beauty and was also once a thousand-year genius. They were a perfect couple, but fate played a trick on them. "

He sighed while taking out a small red jade box from his spatial bracelet, he stroke it softly before handing it to Lim Su Ren and he said, " This jade box was left for you by your parents. They told me to hand it over to you only if you can cultivate it. Now that you are already at the first stage of the energy refining realm, you should take a look at what's inside. I know you have a lot of questions in your mind, but now is not the time for you to know all about it. You will eventually find out when the time is right."

Taking the small red jade box from Lim Shotian, Lim Su Ren didn't open it immediately, but she looked at Lim Shotian and said, " Father, I don't care whether you are my biological father or not, in my heart, I have already accepted you as my biological father"

Lim Su Ren knew that Lim Shotian truly cared for her like his own daughter.

Lim Shotian laughed and said, " haha, it seems Su Ren is becoming more and more sensible. I have already considered you as my daughter too"

"hmmm... I know", Lim Su Ren said with a grin.

Lim Shotian laughed again looking at that cute grin on her face. He took out a black bracelet from his spatial bracelet and after that, he grabs Lim Su Ren's left hand and put it on her small wrist, then he said, " This is a mid-grade spatial bracelet, now that you can cultivate, you can use it"

Lim Su Ren looked at the black bracelet on her wrist with a happy face, she knew that the previous Lim Su Ren had always wanted to own one of this, but she couldn't, because only those who can cultivate could use the storage bracelet.

Calmly herself down, she said, " Thank you father"

After Lim Shotian left, Lim Su Ren closes her eyes and channel some energy into the bracelet, after that she marked the bracelet with her spiritual energy as a sign of ownership.

Lim Su Ren looked inside the bracelet and realized that it has a space of about 500 meters. Inside the bracelet, many things could aid her in cultivation and some silver and gold coins. Looking inside, she murmured, 'Father is so generous, it seems his relationship with my parents is not that simple'

After inspecting the spatial bracelet, her attention shifted towards the red jade box. Holding the jade box, she tried to open the box but she realized that the jade box could not be opened no matter how she tried. Holding the box, she was about to give another try when she heard the White flame say, "You should drip a drop of your blood on the box to open it"

Hearing that, she asked the White Flame with a doubt, "Are you sure that it will work!"

The White Flame replied, " Of course, it will just give it a try"

After hesitating for a moment, she took out a small dagger from the spatial bracelet that Lim Shotian gave her. Cutting her finger, she drops the blood on the box. After a while, the red jade box started to glow dark red and with a 'clank', it opened.

Lim Su Ren looked inside the box and found that inside there was another spatial bracelet, but it looked different from the one Lim Shotian gave her. It was a Golden colored bracelet. From the looks of it, it looked like a high-grade spatial bracelet.

Lim Su Ren picked up the bracelet from the red jade box and looked inside it. There was nothing much inside the bracelet, only two scrolls, and one purple sword.

Picking up the Sword, Lim Su Ren looked at the sword closely and found out that it was a high-class, Heaven-grade artifact, and it was called The Purple Flame Sword.

On Azure Continent, weapons and Cultivation techniques were graded into Sky, Earth, and Heaven with each further divided into low, middle, and high classes.

Lim Su Ren was indeed surprised to find out that her parents had left her such a valuable treasure. If she were to take out The Purple Flame Sword outside, it would cause a great commotion. Even those at the Divine Realm would kill her and seize the sword.

Thinking about it, Lim Su Ren sucked in a cold breath and decided not to casually take out the sword and should only take it out during a life and death situation.

Even though she had only arrived in Azure Continent, she had a basic idea about how this world works based on the memory of the previous Lim Su Ren. She knew that, here, the fist rules and only the strong had the power to stand firm in this world.

After recollecting her thoughts, she picked up the two scrolls and found out that, one was a sword technique called the Deviant flame sword art and the other was the Deviant Flame Cultivation technique. It looked like they were a set and it was also High-class Heaven-grade techniques.

Lim Su Ren started to ponder about her parent's identity. From the things they had left for her, she knew that her parents were not a simple character. Even though she wanted to ask Lim Shotian about them, she knew that Lim Shotian wouldn't tell her. She also knew that Lim Shotian didn't tell her about her parents because she was still too weak and young.

Lim Su Ren clenched her fist tightly and said to herself with a firm determination, " I have to get strong, only by getting stronger I can find out the truth about my soul and my parents. And also the reason why they left me with father (Lim Shotian)"
