Shi Lang held Yu Xeidi''s hand as they walked around the Asura Hall. The Terran was inspecting every thing that has been going on inside the sect. He found that the entire ce has been transformed. All the members were using advancedmunicator like they did back in the Federation.


    The sect was being monitored without any blind spots in themon area. What surprised him was the fact that his sensory abilities have amplified qualitatively after the seclusion. He could even detected a speck of dust flying through the void if he focused on it hard enough. Shi Lang noticed that Shi Tao, Amelia, were chatting with Fairy Moon Jade, and Tian Long in the garden.


    He took Yu Xeidi and the two walked over leisurely. Amelia sensed him the fastest and turned to look at him. She was surprised but then she let out a sigh of relief. Shi Lang smiled and her and said, "I apologize for losing my temper earlier."


    As he said this, he ced his hand on her cheek and Amelia closed her eyes as she said, "It''s okay. You do not have to exin."


    Shi Lang nodded and looked at Shi Tao, and Hao Mei. He smiled at the two and said, "I see that the sect has been handled quite well by the two of you."


    Hao Mei shook her head and said, "It was the elders and Eldest sister."


    Shi Tao patted her head gently and said, "You do not have to shirk away from the credit you deserve, Xiao Mei. Too much modesty is arrogance."


    Hao Mei nodded but did not say anything. Shi Lang approached her and said, "How about I give you the recipe of forever youth pill?"


    Hao Mei raised her head, while Shi Tao and Amelia''s eyes lit up. Hao Mei thought for a bit and shook her head as she said, "Master, my spirit rejuvenation pill is stuck at ny percent purity. Can you teach me that?"


    Shi Tao and Amelia were deted, and Shi Lang chuckled as he poked the Hao Mei''s nose and said, "Yes, I will teach you in the evening. Go meditate and try toprehend the procedure of pill refining."


    Hao Mei nodded and dashed away. Yu Xeidi was about to chase her, when Shi Lang said, "Xiao Yu, did you cultivate today?"


    The girl froze, she was about to chase after Hao Mei. She looked at Shi Lang and shook her head. The Terran sighed as he said, "Girl, you just want to fight all day long, but you do not have the patience to sit down and cultivate?"


    Yu Xeidi bowed her head and Shi Lang said, "Take one day in the week as a vacation and that day you do not have to cultivate, be free. However, the other six days, cultivate so hard that if someone tries to mess up with your free time, you can beat the hell out of them."


    The little girl revealed a pristine smile as she said, "Yes, Fellow Daoist Master. Thank you for your wisdom."


    Shi Lang was surprised and reached out to catch her, when the girl rushed away giggling. Shi Tao asked, "What is it?"


    Shi Lang shook his head and said, "Sometimes the wisdom of your juniors can open up the closed windows of your heart. Xiao Yu just did that earlier, and that became a joke among the two of us."


    Shi Tao nodded, and Shi Lang said, "Give me some time with them alone. Go on, I am fine now."


    Shi Tao and Amelia exchanged nces and left after greeting the two people. Shi Lang looked at Fairy Moon Jade and Tian Long for a moment before he sighed and said, "Old bastard, you have led my sister astray."


    Tian Long and Fairy Moon Jade were surprised as they saw Shi Lang acting calmly. They did not find any malice or rage in his gaze, he was acting just like he was in the past. The Terran said, "Sit down, both of you. We have some big issues to discuss."


    The two exchanged gazes and sat down, Shi Lang said, "I am not going to apologize for what I did. I just hope that you can put it behind you. I was trapped in a heart demon."


    Fairy Moon Jade said, "It was not your fault entirely. We also had some role to y in it."


    Shi Lang waved his hand and said, "Whatever happened, let it stay in the past. I have some news and you two need to focus and prepare ordingly."


    Tian Long said, "What is it?"


    Shi Lang said, "The secret realm I visited to gather herbs for you, is not a secret realm. It is an entrance and exit to the cage created by the Immortals to lock up the weak and outcasts."


    The two people were shocked, and Shi Lang continued, "You probably do not understand this at the moment but what I am saying is the truth. Hou Bing is the one who told me this. It is because of this cage you cannot ascend to the Immortal God realm. This whole dimensional cage is the reason why people think this world is a ne."


    He kept on talking and told them everything. In the end, Tian Long asked, "You said you found someone from the lower realm there, who was it?"


    Shi Lang replied, "Tsuu Ching."


    Tian Long and Fairy Moon Jade were perplexed and quickly searched their memories. They recalled who Shi Lang was talking about and Tian Long asked, "That guy is now an Immortal God? Damn it."


    Shi Lang scoffed and said, "Old man what does it feel to have someone less talented than you to take lead in the cultivation realm? Sucks to be you."


    Tian Long pounded his fist on the table and said, "Bastard, I dare you to take me there and see if I can fight an Immortal God."


    Shi Lang jeered, "Says the guy who almost died to an Immortal Sovereign. Loser."


    Fairy Moon Jade saw the two people bickering with each other, and said, "Lang, what do you want from us?"


    Shi Lang said, "Fuse your spiritual energy with your Dao Laws, however, keep it a secret. Also, remember this process is very dangerous. Be very careful when you do it."


    He spent a whole day talking to them about his ns and stuff when suddenly, he frowned. Tian Long asked, "What happened?"


    Shi Lang did not answer him, but then he smiled and said, "Nothing, life just became exciting. I will go and receive a few important people."


    He has just dropped his words, when Shi Tao appeared beside him with an excited expression. He raised his hand and said, "I know, I am going."


    Shi Lang vanished from his ce, and appeared at the foot of the mountain. He looked at the seven figures dressed in ck cloaks, and battle armors. He said, "What made you bunch take such a long time?"


    One person stepped forward and a mechanical voice sounded, "Good to see you, Supreme General."


    Shi Lang smiled and said, "Good to see you too, OB-One."


    This was the Artificial Intelligence bot that Shi Lang found in a ruin back at the Federation Military. Shi Lang looked at the other people and said, "How long are you people going to be in a daze? Come on, the people are waiting for you."


    Everyone took down there hoods and revealed their faces. They were all the Army people from the Federation. The person leading them was none other than Commander Silence.


    Shi Lang saluted her and said, "Wee to Asura Hall, Commander."


    Commander Silence was still wearing her ck mask, although the signs of struggle were obvious, but she did not give it up. She took a deep breath and said, "You sure did not make it easy for us to find this dump."


    Shi Lang chuckled and said, "Come along."


    He waved his hand a void portal appeared. Commander Silence gazed at him and the man said, "The sect gates have been sealed a long time ago for collective seclusion. So, this is the only way to go inside."


    Commander Silence nodded, and walked through the void portal followed by a few more people who Shi Lang hugged tightly in the spirit of reunion. These people were his friends from the Federal Military. Now that they have arrived, his strength and confidence was soaring the skies. He did not have to worry about the training of his hall members. They will be whipped into the finest warriors.


    ...


    Inside the sect, Amelia, and Shi Tao were standing in the square. They watched Commander Silence appear, and out of habit the two of them saluted thedy, "Ma''am!"


    Commander Silence sighed and said, "I can understand Shi Lang being a dork from ranks and saluting me. What happened to the two of you? Do not tell me you caught what he has?"


    Amelia and Shi Tao exchanged nces and they burst intoughter. The threedies engaged in a group hug, and ignored the people who came out of the void tunnel, and the sect members who gathered around to see the neers.
