593 Out Of Seclusion.
Amelia was doubtful of the old lady who acted to help her. She had no idea why this was happening. After all, she had just arrived and did not know anyone. It would not be very intelligent of her to trust someone she did not know. Ying Yu sensed the vigilance and stepped forward to greet her.
She said, “Hello, fellow Daoist. I am Ying Yu. You can trust me, and I owe a favor to your husband.”
Amelia raised her brow, and her fist clenched tightly. Ying Yu smiled helplessly and took a piece of parchment from her space ring. She showed the content to Amelia and asked, “Please look at this. Is this your husband?”
Amelia looked at the parchment, and she was stunned. Her eyes were filled with longing. Ying Yu felt slightly envious, but she could only sigh as she said, “You are indeed his wife.”
Amelia nodded and asked, “How do you know him?”
She wanted to clear her doubts. However, the old lady said, “We can talk about all these later.”
The two young ladies exchanged glances, and they nodded. The old lady said, “You can leave now. Your presence is a nuisance.”
She was talking to the demonic cultivators. The other party wanted to scold her, but he could not even control his breathing. The old lady watched the other party tremble in frustration and smiled. She asked, “Who is the second in command here?”
She restrained some of her pressure on the other party to gain his mobility back. A demonic cultivator from behind the leader grunted. The next moment, the leader’s hands were twisted, and the lady said, “This is the lesson for you to learn how to act in the presence of an Immortal Emperor.”
The demonic cultivator who was threatening Amelia had fainted from the pain. The old lady said, “You should leave while I am still in the mood.”
The deputy leader nodded and left the place with his entourage. The old lady turned around and said, “Let us leave.”
Ying Yu nodded and said to Amelia, “Fellow Daoist, please come with us. You will be safe. I promise you.”
Amelia was doubtful but considered that this person was familiar with Shi Lang. She nodded to Ying Yu. The old lady covered the two people with her pressure and vanished.
…
Shi Lang was still immersed in the comprehension and was unaware of what was happening in the outside world. He had sent his clones outside to search for Amelia, and they were not clueless to go and ask for every random purpose. They were all Shi Lang and had the experience of performing surgical operations and espionage.
Ling San was watching him comprehend the skills, and unknowingly, a few months passed. Shi Lang was very adept at things like research and adaptation. He skillfully recovered his foundation with the use of those basic skills. At this moment, if someone were to look at his foundation, they would think it was perfect.
One day, Shi Lang opened his eyes and asked, “Master, can I leave now?”
Ling San opened his eyes and nodded. He said, “I have another century to live. You do not have to worry about coming back in a hurry. Go there and finish the things you need to. The era of great war is upon us. There are many geniuses in the world, Xiao Lang, and you will have to face them all sooner or later. It is better to have friends and less enemies. Do you understand what I mean?”
Shi Lang realized that the old man was telling him to avoid conflict. He nodded and bowed his head. Ling San said, “Go, Xiao Mei is getting restless these days.”
Shi Lang tilted his head in confusion, and the old man shook his head before going back to meditation. He said, “You will know soon enough. Now go.”
The terran nodded and, after greeting the old man, left the forbidden valley. Shi Lang wondered if he should wait for his clones to infiltrate the central plains before leaving for the place or if he should go by himself when he spotted Liang Ping sitting on a boulder outside the valley.
Shi Lang did not expect to witness something like this after so many months of seclusion. He was amused and walked up to the person and said lightly, “Senior Brother Liang?”
Liang Ping opened his eyes and sighed, “Finally, you came out of the valley.”
Shi Lang was amused by his relieved expression and asked, “What happened that made you sigh like this?”
Liang Ping replied, “The day you ran into confrontation with Spear Peak Disciple Ran Quiji, Peak Master, declared that the day you step out, the Sword Peak will be challenging the Spear Peak. This is why I heaved a sigh of relief because everyone has been put through the grinder by the Peak Master.”
Shi Lang raised his brow and remarked, “I did not expect anything like this to have happened in my absence. However, do not worry. I have long to spar with someone, so this spar is a very good idea before I leave the sect.”
Liang Ping nodded and said, “What do you wish to do?”
Shi Lang thought briefly, saying, “I would like to see the strongest disciple on the Spear Peak. That guy, Ran Quiji, stopped me from entering the valley because someone from the Spear Peak had already gone inside. I want to see what makes him so arrogant.”
Liang Ping nodded and replied, “I have heard of this guy. He is called Xia Tian, his cultivation realm is Immortal Lord, and he seemed to have comprehended the intent of speed and spear.”
Shi Lang thought briefly and remarked, “This sort of person is meant to be my rival. I will ask for him to come on stage in person.”
ραΠdαsΝοvel.cοm Liang Ping nodded and said, “We will follow your arrangements in the battle order. However, for now, let us go to the Peak Master. She has been the most anxious for your return.”
Shi Lang nodded with a smile and the two of them headed to the sword peak.
