Ace Of Terrans

Chapter 664 Introduction.

Hao Mei was kneeling on the ground, and Shi Lang acknowledged her disciple status. He waved his hand, and the girl was picked up from the ground. The terran asked, "Xiao Mei, you will be my second disciple. I have another disciple, her name is Yu Xiedi. She has not yet started cultivation, so you must look after her. You can decide who will be the senior or the junior among each other." 

Hao Mei nodded, and Shi Lang said, "Do you have any business you wish to sort here, or shall we go." 

Hao Mei thought for a bit and said, "Master, the reason we all stayed in the town was to protect it from the evasion of the beasts. If we go, what will the people here do?" 

Shi Lang smiled and said, "I can set up a barrier array. This will allow only humans to go in and out of the array. The beasts will not have a chance to invade." 

Hao Mei thought and bowed, "Thank you for your grace, Master." 

Shi Lang smiled and shook his head, "Do not be so restrained, Xiao Mei. Although I am a few centuries old, you do not have to be so polite with me." 

Hao Mei said, "Yes, Master." 

She nodded, and Shi Lang told her to go inside the house and pack her valuables to leave with him. The girl had to brief her younger brother so they could leave together with Shi Lang. 

Meanwhile, the Terran began to set up a barrier around the town. He finished his task in five days, and it was about time he returned to the City Palace in the Qiling City. He was missing Yu Xiedi, as he was worried about the people she was surrounded with. 

Although he had established an image before the people using Tian Long's name, it would not be good if they were still to do something to Yu Xiedi. He might be unable to do anything to Yu Xian or Han Kim. They stood at the peak of the power chain, and he was merely at the first step. It was not just their cultivation realm. They belonged to a prominent group of people who fought against the demonic cultivators and beasts. 

He was sure that these people must be members of some group, and even if Tian Long were to side with him, the heavier side would still favor the two old people. After all, the old were better teachers for a child, right? 

It was evening when Shi Lang finished setting up the barrier. He came to the house, and the two young people stood in the garden waiting for him. Shi Lang asked, "Are you two ready?" 

Hao Mei nodded while Hao Ren stood behind her. His temper seemed to have been restrained a lot. Shi Lang took a deep breath and said, "Let's go then." 

The terran took out a spirit sword from his space ring. He had bought This flying sword when he came out of the Qiling city. It would be easier for him to fly with Yu Xiedi when the spirit beasts were busy. The girl liked the feeling of soaring through the blue skies, so Shi Lang bought this flying sword used by Immortal general-level cultivators. 

Shi Lang channeled his spiritual energy through the sword, and the size of the blade extended. He jumped off the ground and steadily landed on the flat blade. He said, "Xiao Mei, come along." 

Hao Mei hesitated but then jumped off the ground and reached the top of the sword. The terran saw Hao Ren standing on the ground with a perplexed expression. Shi Lang smirked and said, "Brat, weren't you brave earlier?"

His remark annoyed the young man. He walked closer to the flying sword and jumped off the ground. Hao Mei caught his hand and helped him stand on the blade. He turned to look at Shi Lang provocatively and smirked. 

The terran smiled and said, "Let's see how long you can hold onto that smirk, kid." 

That said, he controlled the flying sword to move through the void, and the speed increased significantly. Although Shi Lang had formed a wind barrier shield before the people, it did not help with the sword. The young man was terrified, and after five minutes, he wailed, "You Devil!!!" 

After a couple of hours, the people stopped before the Qiling City. Shi Lang and the Hao siblings walked through the city gates together. The two youngsters were in awe and had never seen such a big city. It was close to midnight, yet the place was bustling with activity. Shi Lang took them through the crowd and came to the City Palace. 

The guards saw him and were surprised. They bowed to him before letting him pass. Shi Lang nodded and took them inside the mansion. He sensed Hei Lei resting in the garden, and from what it seemed like Yu Xiedi was cultivating beside him. She was standing in a horse stance, and her body was sweaty. 

Shi Lang went to the garden with his hands tied behind his back. Hao Mei and Hao Ren walked behind him. They could not understand where they were going but could tell from the atmosphere that this place was not ordinary. 

The terran reached the garden, and Hei Lei raised his head. Shi Lang gestured for him to stay silent. He walked over to the steed and brushed his mane gently. Hao Mei and Hao Ren were surprised to see the black horse. The place was illuminated with night pearls, and the shiny fur seemed to be made of sparkles. 

Shi Lang gazed at Yu Xiedi and nodded gently. It was as if the girl sensed his gaze and opened her eyes. She relaxed her posture, and Shi Lang said, "Xiao Yu, overworking yourself again?" 

His voice was very soft, brimming with a doting sensation. The girl stood tall and did not react to him. Shi Lang walked closer and patted her head. At the same time, his spiritual energy coursed through the body of the young girl. Yu Xiedi relaxed even more. She said nothing, but her body was stiff from the practice. 

As soon as she regained control of her body, she turned around and hugged Shi Lang. The terran smiled and patted her head. Shi Lang asked, "Did you miss me?" 

Yu Xiedi nodded gently, and the terran said, "What have you been doing these days?" 

The girl replied in a mosquito-like sound, "Practice." 

Shi Lang nodded and replied, "I have a reward for your hard work." 

The girl raised her head to look at him. Shi Lang said, "I have two rewards. Which one do you want to see first?" 

Yu Xiedi thought and said, "Both." 

Shi Lang chuckled and poked the tip of her nose, "You greedy cat." 

He took the flying sword from his space ring and said, "One is a flying sword, and the other is a big sister. She is my new disciple." 

Yu Xiedi was surprised and gazed at Hao Mei. She did not expect her master to leave the city and bring back a fellow disciple. These past few days, she had been living in this place and interacting with the people of her supposed family. 

Shi Lang waved for Hao Mei to come over and said, "Xiao Yu, this is Hao Mei. She is older than you and has been cultivating for some time. However, you are my first disciple. You can decide who will be the senior among you." 

Hao Mei smiled and said, "Hello, Sister Yu." 

Yu Xiedi nodded and hesitated for a bit before she said, "Hello, I am Yu Xiedi. Greetings, Sister Hao." 

Hao Mei smiled and said, "You can call me Meimei. I have always been addressed like that." 

Yu Xiedi nodded, and Shi Lang said, "Xiao Mei, you and Xiao Yu should familiarize yourself with each other. I will bring Hao Ren to a place for cultivation. I suggest that you say your farewell. It may be some time before you two can meet each other." 

Hao Mei was stunned and asked, "Master, is it too soon?" 

Shi Lang sighed and said, "Xiao Mei, it is not that I want to distance you from your sibling. It is just that Hao Ren is already twelve years old. The optimal time of his cultivation is now. If I wait too long, it will hamper his future growth." 

Hao Mei and Hao Ren looked at each other. The young man said, "Sister, I do not want to cultivate if I stay away from you." 

Hao Mei shook her head and said, "Ren, you understand how this world works. Ever since I started cultivating, my treatment in the town has changed. This world caters to the strong. I do not wish for you to stay weak. You need to walk the path of the strong. I want you to stand beside me on the peak of this world." 

Hao Ren was already crying. His eyes were flooded with tears. The young man did not expect his sister to instruct him. He could understand that she was also in pain, but her control over her emotions was significantly greater than his. 

Shi Lang watched them both from the side. He did not say anything. The matters of the heart were to be solved by themselves. Yu Xiedi was also watching the scene, and she was confused. She had never faced a situation like this. In her small lifetime, the only human emotions she had faced were negative. 

People were filled with rage, lust, and greed. The only person who gave her warmth was her mother, now Shi Lang. Even her so-called grandparents and aunt did not give her such warmth. 

Shi Lang patted her head gently and said, "Xiao Yu, what happened?" 

Yu Xiedi replied, "Master, I wish to understand what they are going through." 

Shi Lang smiled and said, "In the future, my dear. You will know everything in future with time."
