After a week, Shi Lang was sitting in the garden under the tree like always. Hou Bing asked him, "Lang, what do you think about these seven children?"


    Shi Lang replied after sipping on a cup of wine, "They are good."


    Hou Bing sighed and said, "Can you give me something more substantial?"


    Shi Lang looked at her and said, "They have good foundation. Unlike the rest of the geniuses in their ns, these seven have the least usage of elixirs, their skills are earned by themselves through hard work. Also, the most distinguishing trait they have is a battle sense."


    Hou Bing asked, "What do you mean? Doesn''t every cultivator has a battle sense."


    Shi Lang shook his head and said, "The people who have spent too much time on the sidelines watching the others fight, they develop a sense of what their enemy can do, and they have an easy time understanding the other people which aids them in sharpened teamwork."


    Hou Bing nodded and replied, "I see, to think that these kids would be so good." Stay connected via m-v l|e''-NovelBin


    Shi Lang drank his wine as he gazed at the moon in the sky. Suddenly, Kama came over and said, "Your Excellency, the n Leaders are here for you, they say it is urgent."


    Hou Bing furrowed her brows and said, "Fine, call them over."


    Shi Lang did not care about anything he kept drinking the wine from the pot in his hand. Kama returned a few momentster with seven people behind her. The seven men and women bowed their heads to Hou Bing, and thetter asked, "What is it that caused you toe over at this hour?"


    The leader of the Golden Crows said, "Your Excellency, a few human sects have asked for our help in dealing with the Void beasts. A passing cultivator found that the phoenix mountain was gradually recovering its degree of freedom so they want us to teach them."


    Hou Bing did not say anything she looked at Shi Lang and asked, "What do you think?"


    Shi Lang asked, "What is the name of this sect?"


    The n leader replied, "They are called Verdant Garden Holy Land."


    Shi Lang raised his head and asked calmly, "Do they have a force by the name Juan Family?"


    Hou Bing was alerted and the n leader nodded upon some thought as he said, "Juan Family has some standing in the Verdant Sect but they are not too strong."


    Shi Lang nodded and said, "Send Yara and Talon as the Emissary of the Holy Pce and have them chaperoned by the experts of your n. Teach them how to kill the void beasts. Establish a trade for Void Beast materials, it will be useful to your ns."


    The n leaders nodded and then Hou Bing said, "Do as he says, he has a better understanding of the humans than I do."


    The people nodded and they left. Hou Bing waited till they had left the pce premises, and asked, "Can you tell me what is going on? Why did you help them after knowing that Juan Family is a part of the Verdant Sect?"


    Shi Lang looked at her and his eyes turned red as the killing intent raged. The void seemed to shake, Kama who had just returned was shaken by this killing intent, she shivered and then she saw Shi Lang speak in a calm but cold voice, "I cannot let them die at the hands of someone else, Hou Bing. I have to protect them. So that I can kill them by my own two hands.


    There deaths will be examples to those who think they can act out of line and challenge someone''s dignity. They will beg for death but no one will show them any mercy."


    Then he raised his head to look at the moon and said, "I will make it so that no one dares to recall them even in there dreams, hahahahahahahaha! I will ughter them, all of them!"


    Heughed for a moment, and even Hou Bing was taken aback by the extent of his rage. She did not say anything to him. After all, he won''t be wrong to enact revenge, all she hoped was for him to spare the innocent.


    Hou Bing spotted Kama and said, "You did not see anything and you did not hear anything, understood Kama?"


    Thedy woke up and bowed her head inpliance. It was none of her business why Shi Lang hated the Juan family so much, plus now that Hou Bing has spoken she agreed with ease.


    ...


    It has already been a month, Shi Lang was sitting on the top of a mountain, after that night with Hou Bing, he decided to go out of the city and travel on his own. Hou Bing did not stop him and even gave him the map of the eastern continent of the immortal realm.


    Shi Lang hadunched a small terrain monitoring device in the void, and to make sure that no ones detect it, he had covered it with the void skin carefully. Shi Lang was a tech student, and though he might not be an expert at it, he still had the skill needed to do some simple things.


    He did this to have a better navigation aspect. He was sitting on the cliff with red aura circting around him along with a flicker of golden lightning every once in a while. He was not afraid of the ughter Dao consuming him because the golden lightning restrained it perfectly.


    The Dao Laws on his foundation have improved ever since he started toprehend the golden lightning. It was as if everything he had learned about lightning all these years was nothing but the tip of the iceberg.


    Shi Lang had traveled at least half a million kilometers away from the Phoenix mountain yet he was still in the wilderness and their was no sign of human poption. The Terran understood the vastness of the world during this journey.


    He did not kill much on his way just a few dozen void beasts. Spirit beasts below the realm of Beast Sovereign were nothing to him, and those in the realm above were far too much out of his reach.


    Shi Lang spent his nights traveling while he cultivated during the day. He did not wish to be spotted by the people of the verdant sect. His strength had increased to the middle level of the Immortal Sovereign realm, the biggest reason was the pure and dense spiritual energy in the void. It was at least five times richer than the best spot in the caged realm.


    His body seemed to be addicted and would gobble up as much as spiritual energy in one go before turning it all into lighting true essence. Shi Lang was eager to get strong enough so that he could kill the Juan family but he knew that it would not be a simple thing.


    When Yara and Talon had visited to the Verdant Garden Holy Land, they have found that the strongest person in the Juan Family was an elder of the Dao King realm. The sect master of the holynd was a half step Dao Emperor.


    Shi Lang did not wish to risk anything and he was sure that as long as he made a move, the people wille up to block him. He could take his time to kill the Juan Family disciples slowly but then he would be enemy to those shameless elders who woulde forward to cover up for their evil spawns.


    His mind was in chaos when suddenly he heard sounds of battle. He raised his head and then sensed the situation with his sensory ability. He found that seven people were fighting against a dozen or so men. The seven people wore armors while the other group was dressed in rags. Yet the surprising thing was that the seven people seemed weak.


    He found that there were a few children behind the seven men, all of them had pale faces. Shi Lang could not help but recall his disciples, and sighed as he stood up to move forward and take a look at the situation.


    The battle was happening only a few hundred kilometers, Shi Lang appeared there within a few minutes, he did not use the space tunnel, because that would alert the enemy.


    He stood in distance and heard the people. The children were panicking as the seven men were being pushed back, while the enemy rejoiced this situation. One of the ragged clothed person said loudly, "Duanmu Yan, why don''t you lot give up? We will collect the ransom and release you. Is there any point in dying?"


    Duanmu Yan appeared to be the leader of the armored men and said, "You sinful bandit, even if I am to die, you will not get things your way. I will take you all down with me."


    Just at this moment, the person Duanmu was facing, released a secret weapon and caught the former off guard. The short knife was stabbed in his chest, however, Duanmu Yan was an expert and he avoided any vital position, yet the impact was significant.


    The children mored, "Teacher Duanmu, oh lords we are done for."


    Shi Lang looked at the children who were scared silly, and retrieved his spear as he said, "Time to eat."
