Ace Of Terrans

Shi Lang and Xiang San were hiding underwater. The latter was confused as to why they were doing this. After all, it was the opposite of his virtue. How can he let a woman face all these things alone? He glared at Shi Lang, who gave him a few signals. 

Xaing San understood, and with a nod, he swam up and startled the people. Shi Lang had taken him down the plunge pool to give people the illusion that they were chasing after a treasure under the water. To lure the enemy inside. 

Jiang Yangshi identified Xiang San while the latter was stumbling behind Xiao Nan and exclaimed, “What the heck! Third Master Xiang.” 

They would know about each other since they were from the Lion Heart City. Xaing San raised his brow and asked, “Who are you?” 

His tone was filled with disdain. He was the third in line, and he was very disciplined. However, that side of his was only known to his family. Everyone in the Lion Heart city knew this guy to be a thug and ruthless. 

Jiang Yangshi nodded and said, “I am Jiang Yanshi, the third elder of the Jiang Family of the Lion Heart City.” 

Xiang San clicked his tongue and asked, “So, you are from Jiang Hushan’s uncle. Hmm, good. What do you need here?” 

Jiang Yangshi was used to this aloof action of the young man, and with a flattering smile, he said, “Nothing, our purpose is nothing, we were just looking for a resting place. I wonder if young master Xiang would allow us to camp here.” 

Xiang San checked out the entire entourage and said, “No, I do not trust you. If your goofy nature cost me the treasure inside the pool, I will take your skin off.” 

The term treasure ignited all the bulbs in Jiang Yangshi’s mind. He wanted to occupy this treasure and win glory. Xiao Nan was surprised when she heard Xiang San’s words, but the latter gave her a quick wink. She understood that it was a scheme to trample the snake’s head.

Jiang Yangshi nodded repeatedly and remarked, “It must be nice to have caught Third Master Xiang’s eye.” 

Xiang San nodded with his chin raised high. Jiang Yangshi loomed over it, “I wonder what the treasure might be.” 

Xiang San smirked and said, “Have you ever heard of crystallized refining liquid?” 

Jiang Yangshi opened his eyes wide and exclaimed, “You mean to say the crystallized paste that, when applied, could cleanse marrows and wash the bodies of the practitioners?” 

Xiang San nodded and understood that Jiang Yangshi had taken the bite. The latter thought briefly and asked, “Third Master Xiang, how about my people and me spare your life, and you let us obtain that Crystallized refining liquid.” 

Jiang Yangshi was not that good in terms of planning. This middle-aged man was cocky because he thought the number of people behind him was strong enough. Xiang San immediately put away the aloof expression and radiated strong killing intent toward Jiang Yangshi. 

The latter shivered, surprised to see this young thug have such an aura. However, he did not wish to give in. This young man was his junior, at least in terms of age. If he gave up with just a glare, would this not make a fool out of him? 

Xiang San retorted, “Have you forgotten that I belong to the Xiang Family? What gives you the courage to come and threaten me?” 

Jiang Yangshi gritted his teeth. Xiang San humiliated him with the name of his family. He wanted to rebuke him, but the young man did not give him any chance. Xiang San took out his war hammer and said, “Jiang Yangshi, I do not go around using the influence of my family. However, if they discovered that a dog like you robbed us of the treasure, you know very well what disaster awaits your entire clan. Are you sure you want to come and compete with me for it?” 

Jiang Yangshi glared at Xiang San and said, “Who the fuck are you to act so pompously before me? You are a useless thug from the Lion Heart City born into an influential family. It was my goodwill for your father that I proposed to you to leave alive, but since you do not know how to be grateful, I will kill you, rape this bitch, and then have the treasure for myself. No one will know what happened here.” 

He waved, and the Jiang Family disciples picked up their arms. Xiang San frowned, and Xiao Nan looked tense when the pool’s surface suddenly began to boil. Everyone was a detail-oriented cultivator. At this tense moment, they were observing the surroundings more vigilantly than ever. 

Xiang San opened his eyes wide and wobbled. Xiao Nan quickly supported him and then saw the surface of the pond turn red. She opened her eyes wide and heard Xiang San exclaim, “Forgive me, Brother Shi. Forgive me for being too arrogant.” 

Jiang Yangshi looked at the situation and found more than what he knew. He asked quickly, “Xiang San, what are you yapping about? Speak properly.” 

Xiang San gazed back at him but with lifeless eyes. He said, “You wanted the treasure, right? I will give it to you. I will not tell my family if you manage to obtain it. I can swear on my Dao. But Jiang Yangshi, please help me return my brother from there.”

Jiang Yangshi was surprised, and Xiang San said, “Brother Shi was my sworn brother, and just now, he was fighting a killing array that surrounds the treasure pond hidden inside the depths of the pool. He sent me back to reduce risk.” 

Xiang San even had tears in his eyes. The acting was so touching that it fooled the enemy. Jiang Yangshi was surprised and asked, “You mean to say that down there is a killer array that protects the pond?” 

Xiang San nodded, and one of the Jiang family disciples said, “Third Elder, do you think such a power can always act? We can use this opportunity to take that array down before it recovers its spiritual powers. Thanks to the brother of Xiang San. We will be stronger, and the family will respect us like heroes.” 

Jiang Yangshi loved vanity, and this dialog strengthened his resolve, and he nodded. He replied to Xiang San and asked, “Fine, we will retrieve your brother, then you will swear on your Dao heart, and then leave here with him. We will take care of the treasure pond.” 

The Jiang disciples all chuckled as if they had struck gold. Xiang San nodded, and with a gesture from Jiang Yangshi, twelve disciples of the Jiang Family dove into the plunge pool. Xiang San smiled coldly because he knew what awaited them down there. 

…

The disciples of the Jiang Family were all vigilant. However, they did not realize that the inactivity in their spiritual senses was caused because they could not use their spiritual energy at all. 

Shi Lang was standing on the water bed. He had a card that the others did not, the innate ability of a Terran to sense things around him without even needing to see. Another thing that would help him take down these people was his sword intent. Raksha has been placed in his spirit tattoo, but now, he would let her out and consume these people. 

The spirit tattoo was opened, and the red and gold sword emerged. The blade trembled slightly as if complaining about keeping her locked. Shi Lang stroked the blade gently and channeled his sword intent through the blade. Then all he had to do was to let go of his hand. The sword flew out of his hand like a torpedo. 

Shi Lang did not move from his place. The constant moving of his hand caused the earlier water waves to create a false whirlpool. His mind power did not control the sword. 

…

Raksha Sword flew out and consumed the lives of the Jiang Family disciples. Jiang Yangshi was observing the situation outside. He did not want Xaing San to pull something on him. However, the more time it took, the more perplexed he became. Soon, he narrowed his eyes as the pond’s water turned a darker version of red. 

Jiang Yangshi realized that the killing array inside the pond ended the lives of his family disciples. Xiang San and Xiao Nan were also surprised, but they knew Shi Lang was anything but easy. 

Jiang Yangshi could not help but panic. The death of so many disciples was a sin he would have to bear. So, he decided to take out the signal flare and alert the family higher-ups waiting on the other side of the forest to come and aid them. 

However, before he could do anything, a dagger lodged itself in his palm. Jiang Yangshi took a few moments to register the pain in his hand, and by the time he could scream. Xiao Nan appeared before him and a dagger was stabbed in his throat. The lady said, “Did you not want to look at me a bit longer, scum.”  𝓞𝑣𝗅xt.𝕔𝑶𝕞

Jiang Yangshi realized that he was tricked, but it was too late.
