Shi Lang came out of the realm of the cosmic ghosts and sealed the void with a phaser nade. He flew off with Lou Shin, and thedy asked him, "What happened there?"


    She was very curious about all these things, and Shi Lang satisfied her curiosity and even showed her the footage that his body cam recorded. Yes, his battle armor was equipped with a cluster of nano video cams. His hunter badge was the same but it worked on a rudimentary image recording array which activated whenever it sensed a ten thousand realm creature.


    Lou Shin looked at Shi Lang as if he was a monster and asked, "How in the name of heavens did you even think of such a method to kill them? Cosmic Ghosts are one of the most tricky entities, you know?"


    Shi Lang nodded and replied, "As a matter of fact, I do from the books in the sect library. In those books and under the words of my new aid, I got to know that these creatures cannot tolerate lightning and specially heavenly lightning."


    Lou Shin nodded and asked, "Why did you wait to refine the pill? Also, from your discussion with that Phantom Cat, these things did not bind them in a spirit pet contract, then how were they able to control them?"


    Shi Lang sighed and said, "The answer is there in the video that you watched, isn''t it?"


    Lou Shin replied, "Yes, it is, Katar said that it was because of a spirit mark, but what is that mark?"


    Shi Lang rolled his eyes and asked, "Are you sure that you are the instructor of the Martial Spirit Hall? The mark is the star possession mark, a skill exclusive to the cosmic ghosts. They carve a constetion mark on the soul of the target and haveplete control on it.


    However, this ghost did not wish to have half dead puppets and allowed the Phantom Cats aplete autonomy so that they could bring him good vessels. Thus, the cats survived after the death of the cosmic ghosts."


    Lou Shin nodded thoughtfully and asked, "Well, if you say that, but what will you tell the Hunter Association? I don''t think they will agree that you killed all these cosmic beasts on your own that easily. After all, you are just a Dao General and that too in your earlier realm. You just took down fifty or so Cosmic Ghosts who were averagely Dao Lords."


    Shi Lang rolled his eyes and said, "While cultivating like a maniac, have you lost the sense of who I am?"


    Lou Shin furrowed her brows and Shi Lang took out the warring disciple token. Thedy understood that he was going to use the identity of his master to tame the currents. She was surprised and remarked, "That''s very bold of you."


    Shi Lang took back the token and they moved towards Frontier City very quickly. They arrived back in the city, Shi Lang showed his hunter badge and Lou Shin had to pay the entry fee.


    The Terran did not have the habit of hopping around, he was moving back to the immortal city when he spotted a few people causing a ruckus at the diner where he met the Yang family people thest time.


    He frowned, the little girl there left a good impression on him so he walked over curiously, and heard an old man sigh, "The kids have made a mistake this time by provoking these Situ family men."


    Shi Lang furrowed his brows and asked, "Old Sir, what happened here?"


    The old man looked at Shi Lang and was shocked, because this powerful entity just called him Old Sir. He bowed and said, "I dare not ept that address, Senior."


    Shi Lang sighed and asked, "Would you mind telling me what is going on here?"


    The old man nodded and said, "The owner of this diner Old Ding was out to buy supplies and his daughters were minding the business. However, Little Butterfly was clumsy and she spilled a few drops of porridge on one of the young master''s shoe. The person is known toe over and find pleasure by creating trouble here."


    Shi Lang sighed and nodded, before he walked over. He found that an old man along with two girls were kneeling on the ground. They were shivering and did not dare to raise their head. The old man was constantly apologizing while a trio stood before them with haughty expressions belittling them.


    Shi Lang did not act immediately and watched the whole scene. One of the young men said, "You lowly rascal, you people do not understand the grace of heavens and are destined to be limited to this mud under my feet. Do you know that this little bastard of yours ruined my spirit artifact? This shoe is a low level spirit tool. You betterpensate me or I will destroy your entire diner."


    The old man shivered and said with a whimper, "Esteemed Young Master Situ Kong, please have mercy, my child is innocent and did not know the value of your artifact. She made a mistake, please forgive us. I cannot afford to pay you thousands of spirit stones."


    The people around them knew that Situ Kong was just making up nonsense, how could his shoe be an artifact. However, Old Ding did not have any resistance and was begging for mercy. This was enough to show how much the people of the ''Mortal'' level feared those from the big families.


    Situ Kong chuckled and said, "Fine, I am a generous young man, I will forgive you, but... you will have to give me your daughter, Ester. If she serves me for a month, I will consider the debt written off."


    Shi Lang clenched his fists and his eyes turned cold behind his mask, while the people gasped. The Terran was going to take an action when the little girl raised her head and red at Situ Kong. She stood up and said, "Do you think that all of us are fools? Situ Kong, you have the guts, thene at me. Why are you dragging my father and sister in it?"


    Shi Lang was shocked, he did not expect such a thing to happen. The people were shocked as well. Never has a person from the lower city dared to look up at the people from one of the seven families, and this little girl even challenged Situ Kong.


    Even Situ Kong himself was shocked. Old Ding raised his head and yelled, "Butterfly, what the hell are you doing, kneel! How dare you speak to young master Situ in such a manner? Kneel, I said!"


    His face was a specking image of fear. However, at this moment, Ester, the youngdy raised her head, and Shi Lang was shaken one more time. She was so pretty and her appearance was very calm even in all this chaos. She stood up and said, "Father, everyone knows that Young Master Situ''s shoe is not an artifact, he is only doing this to scam us. Yet, we have no other way to get through this.


    I understand that I am weaker, but I will not tolerate someone to disgrace my dignity."


    Old Man Ding watched his elder daughter in shock. The youngdy took out a small dagger and ced it against her neck. She looked at Young Master Situ and said, "Only my cold corpse will serve a cuck like you, Situ Kong."


    Situ Kong was enraged, and he unleashed a fist against the trio. If that attacknded, the people will end up in shreds.


    Shi Lang vanished from his spot and appeared before the youngdies, he returned the attack with a wave of his hand. The fist was just a condensation of spiritual energies. Situ Kong was so angry that he just wanted to erase the lowly insects and did not use Dao Laws.


    Most of the people took a step back from the impact and Lou Shin created a barrier to iste the after shock. Situ Kong noticed that his attack has been negated and he spotted Shi Lang before him. His eyes turned red in anger and he shouted, "How dare you stand in my way? You bastard!"


    He raised his fist but before he could do anything Shi Lang took out a bag and threw it at Situ Kong''s feet, he said, "Ten thousand high grade spirit stones should be enough to suffice for your shoe. Leave, or you will regret it."


    Situ Kong was from a big family and this much money was chump change to him. His real motive was Ester, and this guy with a weird mask stood in his way. He kicked the bag away and the spirit stones spread around. The mortals were shocked to see this much wealth but they did not dare to covet it.


    Behind Shi Lang the trio was shocked and awed to see someonee for their rescue. Situ Kong said, "I don''t care about the spirit stones, now, I want your head."


    He raised his fist and yelled, "m..."


    He was in the middle of his shout, when Shi Lang waved his hand and a sharp sword intent was unleashed. The people from the Dao Cultivation Realms also had to close their eyes. The twockies beside Situ Kong even dashed away as shallow shes appeared on their cheeks.


    However, the one who suffered the most was Situ Kong himself. Shi Lang''s sword intent had chopped off his feet. Situ Kong roared as he fell down on the ground with his stumpy legs bleeding all over the ce. This shocked the entire market and the people who were watching the incident unfold.


    The city guards were also shocked to see this, however, they could not meddle with the affairs rted to the seven families. Situ Kong roared in pain, "You will die, I will feed you to my dogs, you swine!"


    Amidst all the tter, Shi Lang walked over to his side and said, "I did say you will regret it."


    His words caused chaos in the Mortal City.
