Ace Of Terrans

Amelia was stunned when she realized that Shi Lang had sent this beast king to protect her. She did not expect her husband to be this flamboyant. She raised her head to meet the gaze of the lightning leopard. 

The beast king said, “Madam, what should I do now?” 

Amelia smiled wryly and replied, “Senior, I am humbled by your effort. Thank you for looking after me.” 

The lightning leopard was surprised. He did not expect the lady to be so polite. She was the opposite of Shi Lang. The beast king stood up and said, “It is what I must do. Master has given me a lot. It is time I return something to him.” 

Amelia took a deep breath and bowed to him slightly. Then, she led him inside the sect and told the elders about the situation. The people were shocked to find that Amelia’s husband could subdue a Beast King. They did not know Lei Hu was a beast lord when he met Shi Lang, and his chances of advancing were very shallow. 

Inside the palace, the elders made him and Hei Lei their entertainment, put them through the obstacles of the palace, and triggered their bloodlines. The intensive exercise was targeted at specific aspects of their beings. Plus, the nutrition they got from the liquid spirit. The purity of spiritual energy inside the palace was impeccable. 

…

Shi Lang was riding with the two girls when he received the message that Lei Hu had reached the War Maiden sect, and everything went smoothly. He smiled, and his aura softened suddenly. Yu Xiedi sensed this and asked, “Master, what happened?” 

Shi Lang smiled and shook his head. He said, “Hei Lei, increase the speed. I need to reach the Asura Hall soon.” 

The horse neighed and then rushed forward at a higher speed. Hao Mei and Yu Xiedi were scared because, till now, the ride was smooth. Shi Lang said, “I can erect a shield to protect you both from the wind. However, you need to face some pressure.” 

The girls nodded, and they resisted the air pressure. Shi Lang gave them the idea that not everything would be served on a silver platter. After a few minutes, when he found that the girls could not bear the wind, he created a spiritual shield before them. 

The pressure was relieved, and the girls sighed. Yu Xiedi said, “Master, where are we going?” 

lightsΝοvel Shi Lang replied, “To the Asura Hall.” 

Hao Mei asked softly, “What is Asura Hall?” 

The terran replied, “It is a force that I command. You will meet many experts there. Although they are not the best in the world, they are all strong in their manner. You can learn from them.” 

Yu Xiedi frowned and asked, “Master, What is the point of learning from weak people?” 

Shi Lang smiled and said, “None of the people in the world are weak. If you wish to grow strong, the first lesson is to ensure you do not look down on anyone else. One does not become a good cultivator if they have never made any mistake. You become a good cultivator when you know your mistakes and if you make sure not to repeat them.” 

Yu Xiedi and Hao Mei nodded. They spend the night traveling on the road. The aura radiated by Hei Lei made the beasts scatter away, and his speed made it impossible for the bandits and the malicious cultivator to attack them. 

Hei Lei has improved a lot in terms of endurance and reflexes. He could travel at his top speed for two days in a row. It was enough for him to carry the three people to the foot of the mountain. 

Shi Lang jumped off the horse and took the girls to Asura Hall. The summit of the mountain was surrounded by fog. Yu Xiedi asked, “Master, this place is scary.” 

Hao Mei nodded, and Shi Lang said, “This is to make the troublemakers run away. Do not worry.” 

The girls nodded, but they could not relax with the situation. They were both following him closely; the atmosphere was cold, and it gave them a scare. Shi Lang came to a stop all of a sudden and said, “Girls, make sure you follow my footsteps from now on.” 

Hao Mei said, “Master, it is so dark. How can we follow you?” 

Shi Lang realized his blunder. He took a luminescent moon pearl from his space ring and handed it to her. He said, “Now, you must follow my footsteps. Do not step anywhere else but only on my footmarks.” 

The girls exchanged glances, and they nodded. Shi Lang walked ahead and controlled his spiritual energy to leave footmarks on the ground. This way, it would be easier for the girls to follow his trail. Usually, the terran did not leave any marks on the ground, all thanks to his extensive training in the federation. 

Hao Mei and Yu Xiedi walked the trail and could not help but converse with each other. Yu Xiedi asked, “Sister Meimei, why is master walking like this? Can we not walk in a straight line.” 

Hao Mei had received the inheritance of the alchemist master, and she knew a few things about array formations and replied gently, “Xiedi, I think Master is taking us through a protective formation around this place. This barrier stops people from entering the sect, and only those who know where to step can enter.” 

Yu Xiedi was surprised and asked, “Then what about those who do not know?” 

“They will have to face a killing formation to survive, which is almost impossible. The defensive mechanism of the sect protection barrier should not be underestimated.” said Hao Mei. 

Shi Lang was listening to them talk and did not say anything. He wanted them to learn things on their own. With Hao Mei being somewhat knowledgeable, she could teach Yu Xiedi a few things, too. 

As he thought of this, another business surfaced in his mind. He exited the array with the two girls behind him, and a figure appeared before him. The person was stunned and then bowed and said, “Welcome back, Hall Master.”
