Ace Of Terrans

Chapter 786: Legendary Beasts, & Cornered By Wife.

Shi Lang laid down the facts as he saw them, however, the elders could not believe him. Lao Xu shook his head and asked, "So you mean to say that our esteemed forefathers manipulated the society? Why would they do that and for what gains?"

Shi Lang did not reply immediately because these old people could figure out why the weaker party would frame a stronger person. Amethyst sighed and said, "Old Man Lao it is possible that the glory of our ancestors was not all that great."

Lao Xu wanted to reply but he could not say much. He was not a fool, he knew a lot of things. Healing Hands preached up from the side, "Given that what you say is correct, what will you say about the demonic cultivators who gave up on humanity and have been waging war against us so intensely that the entire world is divided in two regions?"

Shi Lang nodded and replied, "Senior when the ancestors decided to declare the people has heretics and demons, they did not only wish to change the status they all had in the society. The organized hunts, and slayed anyone who stood in their path. Even children from such sects were not spared.

Some sects were strong enough to withstand the pressure and went into hiding, while some crumbled and all the survivors were left in despair. The reason demonic cultivators hold such hatred against humans is because of the torment they suffered from when they were following the path of humanity."

Old Man Yanshu shook his head and remarked, "Junior as much as your reasoning is questioned, it is on point, but you still cannot forget that it is still just a belief of yours, we have not seen any conclusive evidence. It is also possible that the source of your knowledge, the spirit phantom inside that palace must have influenced your mind with such ideas? Am I wrong?"

Shi Lang shook his head and replied, "You are not wrong at all, Senior. Everything in this world is possible. Even Mandala going crazy in his search of balance. It is possible for me to be influenced by someone in the palace."

Amelia and Yun Xue did not say anything but stood behind Shi Lang. There was only a limit to how much they could push their opinions forward. The elders were not foolish. Kamandala watched everyone fall silent and said, "If the ancestors made mistakes, it is our duty to correct them. However, if the demons tried to influence you, then it is our duty to eradicate them."

The people nodded and Kamandala continued, "If there is a person from one of these victimized sects, we will be verifying their claims and if they make a heavenly oath that they are good, we should make things right by them. We cannot have such talented people to bear ill-will and give in to the negativity of the demonic side."

Lao Xu commented, "Indeed, if we manage to find such people and they passed the tests, it would only do us good for us. It will weaken the forces of the demonic side."

Amethyst looked at Shi Lang and asked, "So, how do you intend to look for such people?"

The Terran smiled and shook his head as he replied, "I have to head over to the Titan Mountains first. Tian Long's affairs take precedent over anything else."

Healing Hands nodded and said, "True, the sooner he can be revived the better."

Shi Lang nodded and said, "Senior Healing Hands, can you now give me the real location of that inheritance?"

Healing Hands raised her brows and asked, "What do you mean by that?"

Shi Lang asked in surprised, "Do not tell me that you revealed the real location of an exalted senior's inheritance before so many people."

Healing Hands nodded and replied, "I did, they don't have the guts to venture into the Titan Mountains."

Shi Lang looked at the rest of the people and Old Man Yanshu said, "Let alone them even I do not dare to go there."

The Terran was confused and asked, "Why is so? What realm is the strongest spirit beast there?"

Amethyst replied, "Not spirit beasts, but legendary spirit beasts."

Kamanadala remarked, "If you do not understand the difference between the two then it is good that we are here tonight and we can tell you."

Shi Lang cupped his fists and asked, "Please guide me seniors."

Lao Xu snorted and leaned back in his chair as he said, "The spirit beasts you have seen do not have the ability to assume human form until they are able to purify their bloodline to the peak. That is why they are called spirit beasts.

As for legendary beasts, these beasts have purified their blood for a long time, and the strongest one of is a creature who has the ambition to blend into the Dao itself."

Shi Lang was surprised and asked, "How do you do that?"

Amethyst sighed and replied, "By engraving as many drops of bloods in your body with the Dao Laws."

Shi Lang took a deep breath and said, "Do you think it is even possible for someone to do it?"

Healing Hands coughed gently and said, "That is why they are called the Legendary beasts. As for the strongest one, I have no idea, but their are four known entities who are called the Legendary Beast Kings. We do not know their identity but they have existed since ancient times."

Shi Lang sighed and leaned back in the chair as he said, "Now I want to regret my promise."

Amelia glared at him and said, "You wish to make Sister Moon upset."

Shi Lang sat up straight and shook his head and replied, "I cannot break that vow, it's just that the situation is tricky and I might have to change my plans."

Yun Xue asked, "What did you have in mind?"

Shi Lang took a deep breath and said, "I was going to bring along Hao Mei to the mountain range and see if she could get the acknowledgement from the left over spirit of the senior."

The elders were shocked, they did not expect Shi Lang to treat such a crucial issue with this attitude, but before they could discipline him, Healing Hands said, "You want your disciple to have such an enriched inheritance? I commend your virtue as a master. However, it would be how long before Hao Mei could grow to a level and condense that pill?"

Shi Lang realized the issue and said, "Senior, then what shall I do? Is it not wrong for you to ask me to venture in a place of death and then bring out the gains to hand over to you?"

His tone was calm, and no one could tell if he was being sarcastic or genuinely asking them a question. Healing Hands shook her head and responded, "You misunderstood me. If you venture in that place the inheritance is yours, no one from the medical world will covet it. I only hope that if you are not acknowledged by Senior's spirit will, then bring the inheritance to us at the medicine god valley."

Shi Lang thought about it and replied in affirmation. Then he did not waste anymore time and began to serve food and beer to the people. Meanwhile, he kept on thinking if the people here also had any underlying intention. The people praised the food and the drinks, and they left after two hours of non-stop consumptions.

These people had not tasted food in almost a hundred years, so they could not eat more even if it tasted good. After everyone left, Amelia sat across Shi Lang with Yun Xue beside her. The Terran sensed something wrong and wanted to flee away, when Amelia raised her brow and said, "Are you rebelling with me?"

Shi Lang shook his head and sat down obediently, as the lady asked, "Now would you tell me what do you think about Sister Yun?"

The Terran gulped and turned his head to face the anticipating gaze of the young lady. He could tell what answer she was expecting. He took some time before he said, "You know how I am, Amy. I let the nature take its course. Yun Xue has been a good friend and I have always cherished her. Initially I never thought that anything will take fruit.

However, sometime ago, I having been getting protective of her. Yet, it would not be right to call it love. You know, I do not wish to give you a definitive answer right away, I apologize, Xiao Xue."

Yun Xue had complicated emotions in her heart after what she heard. Then she sighed and replied, "You do not have to apologize to me. When I fell for you, it was a whim, and I do not mind your delayed answer. I am happy to be the way we are, and let the nature take its course. Do not worry."

Shi Lang guiltily avoided her gaze, and Amelia said, "Sister Yun, for the time being you should stay with me in the War Maiden Sect. This man can go wherever he wants to go. Hmph, a girl is waiting and yet he cannot find an answer."

Although she said all this, secretly she was happy that Shi Lang was not quick to answer. She was his first wife so she was worried that her position will change but since her nightmare did not come true, and watching how Yun Xue still devoted herself, she acknowledge the match putting aside the concept of wrong and right.

She also decided to let nature take its course.
