Chapter 748 Fame.

?Shi Lang vanished with Zhu Lingxue, and the handful of people she brought along with her were left for the sect people to handle. The Terran wanted to return to the Heavenly Dragon Pavilion with Xiao Mei. He warned everyone to be wary of Zhu Lingxue and monitor her actions for some time. He even made them stay outside the sect grounds.

He would be a fool to trust someone he just met and knew had the power to manipulate someone else's mind. All the arrangements did not take him long, and at the same time, he gave out instructions to all the disciples who were traveling the world to gain experience that they were not to use the Asura Hall uniform at all. With the splash they made last night, it would spell trouble if someone strong caught on to their trail.

Shi Lang returned to the Heavenly Dragon Pavilion with Xiao Mei and dissolved the clones just in time for Yun Xue to come looking for him. The lady was surprised to see a little girl talking to Shi Lang.

She was stunned, and Shi Lang said, "Yun Xue, this is my disciple, Xiao Mei. Xiao Mei, this is my friend, Yun Xue."

The little girl nodded and greeted Yun Xue, "Greetings, Elder."

Yun Xue woke from her daze and smiled, "Greetings, little one."

She turned to Shi Lang and said, "I did not expect you to have such a beautiful gem. Can I steal her?"

Shi Lang smiled but placed his hand atop Xiao Mei's head. He said, "Nope. You came here at this hour. Do you need anything?"

Yun Xue nodded and said, "Did you destroy the Zhu Family?"

Shi Lang nodded and accepted. Yun Xue knew that the Asura Hall was Shi Lang's force. However, the battle description she heard was too surprising. She asked, "Do you not think your action will cause the Titan sect to come after you?"

It was true that with the Zhu Family gone, the Titan sect would suffer losses, and the death of a core member was a great insult to them. They will come after Shi Lang and the Asura Sect.

Shi Lang nodded and said, "I do. What is the matter?"

Yun Xue spoke exasperatedly, "Why are you so calm?"

Shi Lang smiled and asked, "Why are you so worried? Do you know where the Asura Hall is located?"

Yun Xue was stunned; that was right; she did not know where it was located; Shi Lang had never told her. She looked at him, and the Terran said, "It is not that I do not trust you, but until you have joined the force, it is safer for you not to have much knowledge."

Yun Xue thought and nodded. She asked, "What now? The Zhu Family is gone. What do you want to do next?"

The Terran replied, "Cultivate and practice. The tournament is around the corner. I do not want to waste more time in the pointless power struggle."

Yun Xue nodded and said, "Fine, I am going into seclusion. I can sense that my breakthrough is near."

Shi Lang nodded and said, "Go on then. I will protect the place when your tribulation arrives."

Yun Xue nodded and waved her hand at Xiao Mei before she left the room. Xiao Mei said, "Master, my limit is close. I wish to go back. Xiao Yu would be back soon, too. Secluded cultivation will prove good."

Shi Lang looked at her and said, "Hmmm, okay, but do not stay cooped inside the house. Balance between work and leisure."

The little girl nodded, and Shi Lang waved his hand to open a portal for her. Then, he came out to inform Yao Jiming that no matter what happened, he would not be disturbed before the day of the tournament's inauguration. Yao Jiming nodded and said, "I will keep that in mind, Young Master."

Shi Lang did not care about what was happening outside. The entire immortal realm was bustling with the news of a group of people that raided a thousand-year-old family and destroyed them. Not only this, but even their skills shocked the people.

...

Tian Long was sitting on his chair when he sensed something and said, "Old friend since you have come over, why don't you speak?"

An old man appeared before him wearing a green hanfu. This man had a long beard and was a peak-level Immortal Sovereign like Tian Long. He said, "Old friend, did you hear about what happened to the Zhu Family of the Forger City?"

Tian Long nodded and said, "I cannot help but feel like my ears are numb at the mention. The communicator is about to explode from the same message from everywhere. Tell me, Lao Xi, what do you want to discuss?"

Lao Xi took a deep breath and said, "Well, I want to ask if this force is linked to you?"

Tian Long shook his head and asked, "What made you think so?"

Lao Xi said, "Well, you have been looking into the Titan sect, and your champion is also in that city. So I thought I should directly ask."

Tian Long cursed this old man for being too clever and said, "Old man, you are just looking too deep into things. I have no idea about this Asura Hall. Also, that champion of mine cannot take down Emperors. If you have not realized, it was because Zither Soul played a boosting soul for him. Also, killing demon beast emperors that night was after I had significantly weakened them."

Lao Xi scoffed, saying, "You speak as if he has no merit to himself. Hmph, who are you trying to fool?"

Tian Long said, "Do you want me to take a heavenly oath that I am not related to this? Also, he does have merit, but he is not mature enough to deal with those old coots of the Zhu Family, and he would not offend a major sect like this. Another thing that you are forgetting is that I made him the champion because he comes from the same realm as I am. I trust him. Do not go making nonsense stories."

Lao Xi saw that Tian Long was annoyed and decided to calm down, saying, "Fine, if you say so. However, if this force is as strong as the circulating stories, it would be nice to ask the person at the helm to join us in the Martial Council."

Tian Long looked at the old man and said, "You are thinking too much. They just killed a few corrupt people, and we should ask them to join the council. Is it that easy now? The others will not agree and will not have any ideas. Let us focus on other pressing issues regarding this force joining our ranks. Let us wait and see what they are up to."

Lao Xi considered it and left after a few more words. Tian Long took a deep breath and said, "Ugh, this guy is always creating trouble for me."

This was not just Lao Xi; all the experts in the central plains were looking for ways to learn more about Asura Hall. While there were people who supported them, there were also those who hated Asura Hall. Of course, these people did not wish to enter the light, but they also pulled strings to find out more.

One enraged party was the Titan Sect, and they did not hide it either. They had put out bounties, and all the disciples who could spare time were looking for Asura Hall or any news related to them. Many profiteers used this chance to gain wealth by circulating rumors. The Asura Hall was sealed, and they did not care about it because they were getting all sorts of information relayed to them.

This incident allowed them to gain fame and, at the same time, identify many other corrupt people. Within a week, the target list had a hundred names on it. The squad leaders wanted to go out and hunt down some people, but recalling what Shi Lang had said, they calmed down.

Xiao Mei watched all this and came forward to address the seven squad leaders. She told them that the discipline was not to be violated or Shi Lang would not be happy. This was enough to appease these eager people.

…

Amelia was also in seclusion, but as a sect mistress, she was still receiving stable news input. While she was happy that Shi Lang pulled off something this big, she was also worried about being left behind.

The War Maiden Sect elders gathered to discuss the issue, but the grand elder told them not to hold any bias against Shi Lang. His strength and integrity were not to be questioned after this. The elders were still unsatisfied about Shi Lang being involved with their sect mistress, but after this incident, they all agreed to accept him. Well, it's not like Amelia cared.

Thinking about this, the grand elder thought of something and said, "Deliver a message to the champion of the Heavenly Dragon Army for me. I wonder what he will do in that situation."
