Shi Lang and Ye Lia came to the Hunter association and they attracted a lot of attention from the people who were standing there already. After beating up the Situ Family youngsters, Shi Lang had gain instant fame inside the city. The four big families did not say anything to him, as they held the three houses in contempt, which was a public secret.


    On top of that, the fact that Shi Lang was staying in Lady Tong''s house. The pressure on the three houses increased. The Terran saw the people looking at him with reverence and he asked, "Ye Lia, why are the three houses so scared of Xiao Tong? Can you give me the details? I know, Xiao Tong said she would tell me some other time, but I know how fragile she is to recount the sorrows."


    Thankfully, he wasmunicating with the spiritual consciousness or the people would have peed themselves listening to how he addressed Tong Bai.


    Ye Lia replied, "Well, my father was the Young Master of the Tu family as you know. He was loved by the Tu Family elders as well as the juniors of his generation. The Tu family is known throughout the eastern continent for their rich heritage and appraisal skills.


    My Father inherited those skills and improved them even more. One time, when the Situ Family came to ask for his advice, my father found that they were asking him to appraise a pill made from the sacrifice of human new infants. He was infuriated and he told them to leave.


    Situ Tian Hu was his peer, and the person who came to get the pill appraised, he is the current head of the family. Thinking that my father would gather the council against him, he sneak attacked my father and killed him. My mother was in seclusion that time.


    When she broke through to Dao Emperor, and came to know about the incident, she washed the city with blood. Even the ancestor of the Situ Family had to loss one hand and one leg before he could save the remaining Situ Family. The three Houses helped each other, but the other two retreated when they faced heavy causalities.


    Mom killed five thousand people in a night and the next day, the council came forward to act against her, because they were bound by a code. However, my mom beat up the council masters as well, and demanded for Situ Tian Hu to take his head off in repentance.


    That time, Situ Family Ancestor took a blood oath, that if he or his predecessors were to act against us, or my mother, then they will perish. Mother also had to step back from the battle because her foundation was unstable and I had taken the duty to guard the casket of my father.


    My mother took a heavenly oath that day, if any Situ family people were to step inside the Tu family properties, she would kill them, and Situ Tian Hu, being the coward he is, he never stepped out of the Situ family, and over took the family head position thanks to his higher cultivation base."


    Shi Lang nodded and said, "Well, nothing to worry about, if theye this time. I shall let my sword drink their blood and feel good."


    Ye Lia asked, "I was wondering why didn''t you use the sword that day?"


    Shi Lang smiled and said, "Situ family sent a lot of whetstones for me to grind, so I did what seemed best to me."


    Ye Lia chuckled and said, "If they knew what you are thinking about, they might cough up blood."


    Shi Lang chuckled and they came to the assignment counter, and the elder behind the counter said, "Oh, Young Miss Tu, you have alsoe to ept a task."


    Ye Lia nodded and smiled as she said, "Grandpa Tie, give us a joint task for silver level."


    The old man looked at Shi Lang for a prolonged second and thetter replied, "Greetings Elder, Aunt Tong told me toe and ept the task with big sister Ye Lia."


    He knew what the old man was thinking and had to kill such thoughts while they were still in the womb. The expression on the old man''s face changed and he nodded before taking out a bunch of scrolls.


    Ye Lia looked at Shi Lang and said, "You can select."


    Shi Lang shrugged and skimmed through the scrolls. His speed was fast but his gaze was faster, after a minute, he held a scroll and said, "This one."


    Ye Lia looked at the scroll and frowned as she asked, "Are you sure you want this one? It will be very tough."


    Shi Lang nodded and gave her a thumbs up, stating that he wanted this task.


    The elder registered the task under their names and the two people left the hunter association quickly.


    ...


    Lady Yao''s voice echoed in Shi Lang''s mind as soon as they left the city, "Xiao Lang, what is the task?"


    The Terran replied, "Teacher, we will be entering the ten thousand realm battlefield and aid the Commander of the Onyx City to fend off the attack of War Ants."


    Ye Lia asked, "Have you ever been to the battlefield?"


    Shi Lang smiled and said, "I was made in the battlefield. Supreme General of the Terran Military, the empire that was spread across the cosmos."


    Ye Lia was stunned and then she said, "You lie."


    Shi Lang chuckled and said, "Well, then see this."


    The two of them flew through the void while Shi Lang gave her an augmented reality ss. Ye Lia was shocked by this but she could not refute anything, because what happened was happening before her.


    After half an hour, they reached a ce where hundred thousand armored guards stood with great vignce on their faces. As soon as Shi Lang and Ye Lia appeared before them, at least seventy guards yelled, "Who goes there? Stop, or be killed."
