Ace Of Terrans



Xuan Ming and Ling Yang stood aside, watching the scene unfold. Xuan Shui accused Ling Yang of seducing her. Ling Tian was enraged by whatever the fuck was going on, and at this time, Xuan Shui decided to undermine him. How was he going to let her walk away from it? 

He retorted, "Oh, was I the only one responsible for this? Bitch, didn't you find excuses to meet me everywhere I went? Was it, not you who made me poison Xiao Nan of the Tianxu Pavilion because you were jealous of her beauty? Shameless woman, if it was just me who was being a pervert, then why were you moaning every time I fucked you?" 

The profanities flew around like chunks of magma, melting people alive. Shi Lang and Xiao Nan watched the two people tear each other's faces. They both were stunned to watch such a turn of events. Shi Lang wanted to say something when Elder Chen said, "Wait, did you just say that you poisoned my Young Miss? Ling Tian, you sure have some galls." 

Ling Tian woke up from his daze and realized he was talking more than required. He wanted to say something when Elder Chen turned his head to look at Ling Yang and asked, "Patriarch Ling, from today onwards, Tianxu Pavilion will cease all contact with your Ling family. The same goes for Xuan Family. Even the King respects Tianxu Pavilion for our business in the eastern barrens, yet a small City Lord could not control his daughter. If I told you the identity of Young Miss Xiao Nan, you would kneel us for mercy. Scoundrels." 

That said, Elder Chen flicked his sleeves and turned around to leave. Shi Shanwang shook his head and greeted Elder Ximen Tao before leaving. He said nothing, but the action was enough to display his stance toward the Xuan and the Ling family. 

The people of the city realized what was going on, and they also gradually retreated. Ximen Tao waved his hand, and the two quarreling youngsters froze. The Jiang Family guards were strong and stuffed the two teenagers inside the carriage. 

The people gave way to the convoy and began to scatter while discussing the situation. The reputation of the Ling and Xuan family had been tarnished. They might have had some chance of redemption, but now, Elder Chen directly raised the banner of the Tianxu Pavilion. 

If Xuan Family were going to retaliate, they would suffer. Shi Lang and Xiao Nan glanced at each other and returned to the Tianxu Pavilion. The two were jolly but did not show anything on their faces because both knew that a wounded beast could do more damage.

The best thing for them to do now was to let the enemy rest and recover. Although the two families will recover, they will not have the same strength as they did in the past. 

The spearhead of their young forces was gone. This was a major drawback of the disciple system. Shi Lang and Xiao Nan came to the administration office and found Shi Shanwang and Elder Chen sipping on hot tea. 

Shi Lang greeted them before Shi Shanwang asked, "What now?" 

The terran replied, "Assimilate force. Reform the family system and train the four young ladies to take the command in the future."

This surprised Elder Chen and Xiao Nan. They wanted to ask what he meant by this, but the two consciously kept quiet since it was a family matter. Shi Lang walked up to the window on the side and said while peeking out, "The drawback of having one young master is evident. The Ling and Xuan families are in a bind because of this. We need to have the four girls watch the four directions and be prepared to support each other at any given moment." 

Shi Shanwang nodded and said, "You are correct, but how do we decide which one is suitable for which direction?" 

Shi Lang replied, "I have assessed them these past few days. We shall discuss it in the family meeting." 

He did not wish to say anything more than this. Shi Shanwang was also willing to unveil this much information for the sake of goodwill. He intended to tell Elder Chen and Xiao Nan they trusted the Tianxu Pavilion. 

Shi Lang waited until they finished the tea, and the pair left the pavilion. Elder Chen said, "Miss, this young man is not easy." 

Xiao Nan smiled and said, "This guy broke the illusion array system left behind by an Immortal Sovereign. If he does not make a name for himself in the Immortal realm, I will be a waste."

Elder Chen did not deny it, and he could tell that Shi Lang was out of the ordinary. 

…

The elders gathered in the training grounds in the Shi Family manor. Now that the traitors have been dealt with, they had no problem discussing such matters in the open. However, to avoid snitches, they erected a barrier array. 

Shi Lang called everyone over. Many people were scrutinizing the young man, and he said, "I called everyone here because a few things need to be discussed urgently, so I apologize." 

The people shook their heads and asked him to go on. Shi Yulong was sitting on a chair, and Shi Lang said, looking at him, "Patriarch, the situation of the Ling and Xuan family is obvious to all of us." 

Shi Yulong nodded, and Shi Lang continued, "A few things that I would like to mention before we go deeper. Both families were tied in alliance marriages. Now they turned faces from each other. They trusted one person with their entire young forces. 

Now the situation is- two ladies sacrificed in the name of benefits suffered without any faults. The two families are suffering business downfall as well. They are desperate and wounded. I do not wish to see the same happen to our family. If anyone has any thoughts, please speak now." 

The elders and the disciples discussed things with each other. Such matters could not be discussed in a short while. After an hour, the elders nodded and conveyed their messages to Shi Yulong. The middle-aged man said, "Lang, go on." 

Shi Lang nodded and replied, "The Shi Family will now change the disciple system." 

This caused a massive uproar, but Shi Lang said, "Calm down, let me finish." 

The people calmed down, and the young man said, "Disciples who have been loyal to the family will be given a name to show that the family remembers them and we respect them. Disciples are the ground force of the family and are why we are strong. Do the elders approve?" 

Shi Lang had a simple road map. To make a strong family, he first needed to make a united family. To do this, he would reward a carrot first. The elders thought about this and agreed.

Shi Lang said, "I propose the title of Shengwang. All the disciples represent the prestige of the family. This title will be embroidered on the left chest of their clothes or a wooden token on their waists." 

The disciples replied, "Thank you, Young master." 

The chant echoed in the ground, and Shi Lang waved his hand before he said, "The family now has three hundred disciples and sixteen elders. The elders will be paired to watch over fifty disciples, dividing them into eight groups. These groups will be called Qian, Dui, Li, Zhen, Xun, Kan, Gen, and Kun. 

A lottery system will change these designations every six months, and the patriarch will preside over the sorting in person." 

An elder asked, "Young master, what is the principle behind this system?" 

Shi Lang nodded and said, "This will allow us to assign particular jobs for the disciples to focus on and reduce their stress. They can practice more if they have less stress and more time." 

The people understood what he was doing and bowed to him slightly. Shi Yulong and the rest of the main family were stunned at this method but realized it was efficient. 

Shi Lang said, "Do not be happy. Punishments follow Rewards…." 

The discussion about the new system went on for a few hours, and finally, it was settled. Shi Lang said, "The last thing I want to mention is that the chain of command will be held firmly. Shi Ning, step forward." 

Shi Ning was stunned, but then Shi Ting pushed her forward. Shi Lang said, "Shi Ning will be responsible for all the forces of the family security. Shi Wie, you will be responsible for the pill refining and treating the injured of the family. Shi Yua will manage the business, and Shi Ting will focus on the sword. The disciples who wish to pursue the sword path will follow Shi Yua." 

The change shocked the family, and that was not all. Ling Tian's corpse was found hanging at the city gate two days later. A letter was stuffed inside his pants. The Ling family was soon informed, and the city shook from shock.
