Ace Of Terrans

Chapter 835: Shura In Retreat.

Shi Lang issued the command and Asura Hall set off on the rush to get stronger. They did not know the reason Shi Lang asked them to do such things, but they literally gave up the intelligence gathering activities.

The operatives all over the human world moved into temporary hide out bases and started to cultivate. They would only head out when someone from the head quarter raised a flag. Only when there was a threat to humanity or someone was acting against morality would they take action.

Asura Hall stopped recruiting, they rescued the orphans and delivered them to the jade towers. Fairy Moon Jade was confused and she contacted Shi Lang. The Terran was in seclusion, and the request diverted to Hao Mei.

Yes, the little girl was not in seclusion, as she was watching over the sect operations. Shi Lang did not underestimate them because of their age, they have received the education and the knowledge from the federal system. Shi Tao imparted her knowledge to them by spiritual impartation technique.

Shi Lang never thought of this, he wanted the children to grow up as normally as possible. Hao Mei accepted the call and greeted Fairy Moon Jade, "Greetings, Senior Zither Soul."

Fairy Moon Jade saw the hologram before her and was surprised. She asked, "Xiao Mei, where is your Master. Is he avoiding me too?"

Hao Mei shook her head and said, "Senior, master entered seclusion yesterday, and Elder Sister Tao has gone out of sect. I am handling the sect matters for the time being. Are you calling because of the orphans being delivered at the gates of Jade Towers?"

Moon Jade nodded and asked, "Yes, what is it about?"

Hao Mei replied, "Senior, Asura Hall is running low on resources, we cannot support the orphans at the moment. So, master suggested to have them delivered at Jade towers. He said that you would know what to do."

Fairy Moon Jade was surprised but at the same time, she did not know what to do. She could understand that Shi Lang was in seclusion, but what was with the running low on resources. She raised her head and asked, "Xiao Mei, does Asura Hall need any aid?"

The little girl shook her head and replied, "Thank you for your concern, Senior. The sect is going through a time of upgrade and that is why at the moment, we are unable to divert the resource allocation. However, as our business grows in the next six months we will be back to help you in this noble cause."

Fairy Moon Jade finally understood what was going on, but her mind was spinning by the way Hao Mei was talking. It was simply like she was talking to a businesswoman. However she did not know what exactly was going on and accepted the result. She told Hao Mei to contact her if need be.

The call was disconnected. Hao Mei looked at a lady beside her, and said, "Elder Chang, is the teleportation array to the medicine garden ready now?"

Elder Chang replied, "Young Miss, it should be operable in a few minutes."

Hao Mei nodded and said, "Please tell the guards to be attentive. Master mentioned the array and the medicinal garden as a top priority subject, we cannot be lax in it."

Elder Chang nodded with a smile and said, "Do not worry, Young miss."

Hao Mei looked through a few more documents, when Shi Tao and Yu Xeidi walked inside the room. Shi Tao asked, "Xiao Mei, is everything okay?"

Hao Mei recounted the call with Fairy Moon Jade and Shi Tao said, "You did the right thing."

Yu Xeidi scoffed and said, "That guy thinks too highly of himself. Let me grow stronger, I will beat him into submission for master."

Shi Tao chuckled and patted her head, "Xiao Yu, that person is still a Immortal Sovereign. You need not worry about him."

Yu Xeidi said, "Eldest Sister, you do not have to coax me like a child. How dare he cause trouble for master? I am already in Spirit formation realm, it won't be long before I make him kick the bucket."

Shi Tao smiled and wanted to say something when suddenly her expression turned cold and the next moment, sound of sect bell echoed.

Dong!

Dong!

Dong!

Hao Mei said, "We are being invaded?"

Yu Xeidi flashed and ran out with her sword. Shi Tao and Hao Mei followed her. In the sect square, Yang Niao was holding Yu Xeidi's arm, and sealing her cultivation. Shi Tao asked, "Elder Yang, what is going on?"

Yang Niao said, "Young Miss, Sovereign Heavenly Dragon is outside the sect array, he just appeared out of nowhere and demanded to meet with Hall Master."

Shi Tao furrowed her brows and suddenly an ethereal voice echoed in her mind, "I will deal with it."

Allure walked over and began to climb the sky.

...

Tian Long stood in the void with his arms behind his back. He saw Allure walking over calmly with a cold face. He knew about the existence of this lady, and cupped his fist in greeting as he said, "Forgive me for arriving unannounced, Senior. I wonder if I can talk to him."

Allure said, "He is in seclusion and will not come out anytime soon. However, let me ask you something. Leave."

Tian Long was not surprised by this abrupt dismissal. He took a deep breath and said, "Senior, I really need to ask him something, and if not for the fact that only he can answer my question, I would not have appeared here."

Allure raised her hand and was about to attack, when Raksha appeared beside her. She said, "Hold it, I will deal with him. He does not understand simple logic."

Tian Long looked at Raksha and sensed a strong repulsion from her gaze. The sword spirit said, "You came here, and if someone was to follow you, or trace your spiritual essence, they would track you here. Tell me, what is urgent that you have come here."

The sovereign said, "Raksha, see, I understand that I was careless and I made a mistake, but the Heavenly dragon army is not the same without him. The tactics are not as affective as they were when he led them. I need his help."

Raksha shook her head and said, "Out of question. He will not help you, and even if he did, I would not let him. He does not owe you anything now Tian Long. It could have been said that you helped him evade the demonic cultivators when he came here, but that is all. He saved your life, he raised the level of your army. He shed, blood, sweat, and tears.

Even tears of blood, and now he is done.

I made him swear a heavenly oath to not help you even if Moon Jade came forward. You are you and he is he. Do not mix the waters, the Asura Hall does not welcome you. Leave."

Tian Long clenched his fist, he was getting angry. He raised his head and said, "Do you think you can hold me back? Yeah, probably you can fight me, but what if I came back with more people? Would you be able to defend? I will force him to come out."

Allure replied, "I will kill you, and everyone who comes over with you. I will then slaughter all the people linked to you, including your Dao Companion. It does not matter if Shi Lang supports me or hates me after that. Do you want to try?"

Allure shocked Tian Long and Raksha, however, the latter did not say anything. The myriad fox said, "Tell us the real reason, why did you come here?"

Tian Long sighed and said, "Shi Lang gave up the champion token and now the resources he won for the heavenly army cannot be claimed by us. It is causing a real trouble at the front. In the past two days, I have lost three men. I cannot let them walk to their deaths without those materials. I need Shi Lang to write a letter so that I can claim those resources and help my men."

Raksha thought for a bit and then said, "Fine, wait here."

A few minutes later, she came over with a letter and handed it to him. Tian Long smiled bitterly and said, "He is willing to sign the letter but not see me. Does he hate me so much?"

Raksha shook her head and said, "He already knew something like this will happen so he left this letter for you. Tian Long, he does not hate you, he does not feel anything for you. The moment, you went back to your ways of putting him into situations he did not like, you lost the right of friendship. Leave here, and do not come back."

Raksha vanished after she said this, Allure watched Tian Long for a long time, before the man sighed and opened the void portal to leave the place. The legendary fox checked the entire area before she went back.

...

At the lowest level of the Tartarus training labyrinth, Shi Lang was sitting in the void with his eyes closed. Hou Bing sat on his shoulders and asked, "Do you really not want to see him?"

Shi Lang replied, "I don't, do not disturb me again."
