Ace Of Terrans

Shi Lang spent half the night tempering and cleansing Yu Xiedi’s body before he called it quits. The girl was tired from sitting silently, but how could the tremors in her body escape his senses? On one side, he was happy that the girl was so persistent, but on the other, he felt guilty for putting the girl through such a hard time. 

He said, “Xiao Yu, go to bed. We will go out in the morning, okay?” 

The girl gazed at him softly and nodded. She tried to stand up, but her legs were numb from sitting with his legs crossed for so long. She wobbled and stumbled. At this moment, Shi Lang reached out and held her dainty body. He said, “Let me help you.” 

Then he supported her to walk to the bed. Yu Xiedi said, “Master, I will sleep on the floor.” 

Shi Lang patted her head gently, and they said, “Do not worry, I have to do a few things. You should sleep. I will not harm you.” 

The girl was confused, but Shi Lang placed her on the bed before she could say anything and made her lie down. Then he turned to the side and bought out a lot of metal from his space ring. 

While shopping for the pulls, he found that the people were also selling and throwing out a few things. These things were discarded as trash but were no less than a treasure to Shi Lang. 

The terran used his spirit energy to turn the scrap into a rifle barrel and mechanism. He had extensively researched hot weapons during his time in the federation. With his memory and command of spiritual manipulation, it did not take long for him to finish the main components of the rifle. Then, he started to work on the casing. 

The rifle casing was designed around one of the most popular rifles in the federation. After spending an entire night finishing the weapon, Shi Lang was not tired but felt quite happy. He also molded a lot of bullets from the leftover scraps. 

However, this product had a twist: the bullets were covered with spiritual array runes. The bullet casings were filled with some rudimentary mix of natural chemicals, which acted as an alternative to the gunpowder. The barrel was also engraved with spirit array runes, allowing one to gain a telescopic view. 

One more sound cancellation array rune was carved for complete sound suppression. When the young man was finished dealing with his work, he took a few pieces of parchment and recorded the design. He would send the design to the Asura Hall, have them craft more copies, and use them for assignments. 

Asura Hall will take on dangerous tasks in the future, and the better equipment they have, the lower their risks. He will be paying a visit to the Tainxu Pavilion in the city. They provided a secure courier, and he could also gain a discount with the token in his hand. 

He turned around and saw that Yu Xiedi was looking at him with great curiosity in her eyes. She asked, “Master, what did you make?” 

Only Shi Lang realized she was staring at the gun hovering in the void. The terran smiled and said, “I made a weapon. Do not worry. You will see how it works when we go out.” 

The girl nodded, and they got ready and left the Inn after a good breakfast. Shi Lang discovered that the girl liked eating good food. Shi Lang took her to the Tianxu Pavilion. The girl was not good at dealing with big crowds, so Shi Lang told her to hold the sleeves of his hanfu as they moved. 

This gesture calmed her nerves, and Shi Lang knew the journey would be long. After all, childhood trauma was the most difficult to heal. Shi Lang came to the reception counter of the Tainxu Pavilion and said, “I would like to courier some papers securely.” 

The person nodded and said, “Please tell me the location.” 

Shi Lang nodded and told him all the details, and the receptionist said, “Sir, it will cost you seven hundred high-grade spirit stones.” 

Shi Lang took out the spirit stones and showed his Tianxu Token. The receptionist was shocked but calmed down and said, “Sir, you should have told me earlier.” 

The terran smiled, waved his hand, and asked, “Can you tell me if I still have a discount?” 𝓞𝗏𝗅xt.𝚌𝞸𝚖

The person nodded and said, “This much is nothing, sir. We will arrange for it to be sent free of cost.” 

Shi Lang was surprised and said, “Thank You.” 

After exchanging a few pleasantries, the two people left the pavilion. During this time, Yu Xiedi was surprised at the bustling streets, and even more, she could not help but look around in awe. 

Shi Lang sensed her awe and said, “Xiao Yu, calm down. All these things will mean nothing when you have gained true strength. Remember, in this world, only strong people can walk with their heads held high. Money and fame, everything flows to you when you have power.”

Yu Xiedi understood what happened and said, “Yes, Master.” 

…

The two people came to the forest, and Shi Lang said, “We are going to hunt wolves. You will stay on top of the tree and watch everything from a safe distance. Your only task is to practice the stances and consolidate your foundation. Okay?” 

The girl nodded and Shi Lang said, “Come, let us get you settled.” 

The terran took her to the top of the crown of a tall tree and set up a few layers of the isolation barrier. He said, “This place will keep you safe. If anyone even came five hundred meters close, I would approach you. Practice with ease.” 

The girl nodded and sat down. Shi Lang placed some snacks and drinks next to her and said, “Little foodie, you can eat these every two hours, but not all of them, okay?” 

Then he poked her cheek gently, and the girl could not help but smile faintly. It was just a fleeting moment, but Shi Lang was happy. He said, “Now, I shall go and dance.”
