Chapter 802: Return.
Allure watched Shi Lang talk to the elders guarding the Inheritance palace and how they revered him. She could not help but wonder what it was about this youth that made them all respect him so much.
Thinking about it she could tell that Shi Lang was anything but a simple person. He was more like a genius but she could not see anything highly talented about him. The more she watched the curious she became. While she was immersed in her thoughts, Shi Lang came to greet her and tell her about the arrangements, but the lady nodded in a daze before she said, "That all aside, I am coming with you."
Shi Lang took a second to register this and sucked in a cold breath. He had not expect her to say something like this and asked, "Senior, are you sure? You know the legendary beasts and the humans do not get along well."
Allure nodded and replied, "I know, aren't you a genius. You get the opportunity to be the negotiator from my side."
Shi Lang opened his mouth but he knew that nothing he said would work so he surrendered to his fate. He then looked at the beast emperors and said, "The people here do not mind the beast emperors to roam in the barren land as long as they do not attack humans. So if possible please leave them with a brand of your. If any of them makes a ruckus then I would like to use that brand to intimidate them."
Allure did not see a problem with that and walked through the Beast Emperors. She located someone with a purer blood and gave him a brand. Then she turned to look at them all and said, "If you ever troubled the humans anyhow. I will come back and strip you all off your skin and balls. Do you understand?"
The beast emperors nodded and Allure waved her hand for them to leave the place. Then she turned to look at Shi Lang and said, "I should not ask you but how did you manage to convince them of your death?"
Shi Lang replied, "I have a technique that allows me to create clones as you know that. So inside the cave I concealed my presence and then when Red Dragon attacked, I used his spiritual fluctuations as a cover and opened a void tunnel through to the inheritance palace.
The spirit presence of the senior inside the cave called for the beast emperors to come through the portal and the next moment we were here."
Allure was surprised by his quick thinking. She did not expect that a human would have the wits of blindsiding a legendary beast, but then again Red Dragon was a brawn for brains type of guy.
Shi Lang watched her think silently from the side. Allure asked, "How are we traveling?"
The Terran shrugged and said, "If I was alone I would have opened two void tunnels but since you are here, can you take us there? Your command on the Dao Laws of space are higher than mine."
Allure nodded and replied, "Sure."
Then she grabbed Shi Lang from the back of his neck and vanished from her spot. The Terran only sensed the world squeeze around him and push him forward. This sensation was similar to the space jump back in the federation.
They appeared above the first city. Shi Lang took a deep breath and said, "Whoop, it has been quite some time since I have felt that."
Allure asked, "Have you ever traveled at this speed?"
Shi Lang shook his head and said, "Usually the seniors can only open void portals and they do not give such a feeling. However, back in the lower realms we had a technology that could squeeze the structure of our vessel and then shoot us through the vacuum at a similar speed."
Allure was surprised and asked, "Do you mean the people who do not cultivate can still travel at that speed?"
Shi Lang nodded and replied, "It is not quite similar to the spiritual cultivation. Well, I do not know the details of that technology, so I cannot tell you, maybe in the future you will see."
Allure nodded as she watched Shi Lang bring out Raksha and said, "Raksha, we need to get back to the capital."
The sword trembled, Raksha did not appear before Allure, because she did not trust her much. Shi Lang sighed and wanted to convince her when suddenly, he heard a voice, "You are back so soon."
Shi Lang did not sense this person approaching, and raised his head to find Old Man Yanshu.
He bowed to the old man and said, "Senior Yanshu, yes, I had help and managed to achieve my goal sooner."
Yanshu was surprised and looked at Allure. The next moment, his pupils constricted into the size of a needle. He was getting ready to attack when Shi Lang said, "Senior Yanshu, this is Lady Allure. She is a legendary beast who helped me. She does not have any malice for humans."
Yanshu furrowed his brows and asked, "You think I would believe it?"
Shi Lang sighed and put on a cold reaction as he said, "Senior Yanshu. Senior Allure is a superior legendary best, and one of the strongest people inside that mountain range. Are you sure we should be enraging her like this?"
Yanshu's face turned pale when he looked at Allure. The lady was gazing at him with a dead pan expression. She said, "Kid, how come someone of your talent is working with them?"
Shi Lang sighed and said, "Senior Allure, please do not talk like that. Senior Yanshu is very strong and wise. He did not attack you, but his caution is not uncalled for. You know how those legendary beasts treat us humans, do you not?"
Allure waved her hand and said, "I have not yet put use to my innate charm, is that still not a gesture of trust? I am here because of you, but if they act so cocky then I will go back to the eastern barrens. I do not have any need to degrade myself to help a bunch of old humans."
Shi Lang sighed and said, "I understand that Senior, but since there is so much bad blood between two sides, we need to be patient with each other."
Allure took a deep breath and said, "Fine, for your sake I will give them a chance."
Shi Lang nodded and said, "Good, Senior Yanshu, can we go to the Martial Council?"
Yanshu took a moment and then he nodded. He opened a void tunnel and then the trio leaped through it.
...
Fairy Moon Jade got the word that Shi Lang had bought over a Legendary beast as a companion. They were now having a meeting with the big five of the Martial Council.
She sighed and looked at the sky, wondering how life was a mix of the good and the bad. Shi Lang met his goal and passed in flying colors, however, the arrival of the Legendary Beast caused turmoil in people's heart. They all knew that Allure was someone who could destroy humans easily.
The fear of the legendary beasts was not baseless. Shi Lang also agreed with it. These beings were the embodiment of selfishness. They were cruel and would go to any lengths to get what they want.
...
Inside the Martial Council meeting room, Amethyst, Kamandala, Lao Xu, Healing Hands and Yanshu sat on a high table. Allure was waiting outside the room, but they could sense her spiritual presence in the room. It was inevitable, she did not trust them, but since she did not barge in the room for Shi Lang's sake they did not kick a fuss over it.
Healing Hands asked, "Did you get it?"
Her eyes were brimming with anticipation and he said, "I have been tutored by Senior Yama in alchemy and I am a grandmaster now. He also passed down the recipes that he created. However, most of them are already public apart from the Soul Creation Pill."
Healing Hands nodded and said, "Good, now what do you intend to do?"
Shi Lang was confused and wanted to ask if she was asking him to hand over the pill formula, but Kamandala cut him short and said, "Patron Healing Hands is asking what do you wish to do in regards of the pill refining process."
Shi Lang thought for a bit and said, "I will have to hunt for the ingredients listed in the pill formula."
Lao Xu asked abruptly, "What is this about? Why did you bring that Senior along?"
Shi Lang smiled faintly, at least, unlike Yanshu, this old man was somewhat smart. He said, "Senior Allure has been cultivating in seclusion for eight hundred years. She is very dedicated to fighting the demons and wanted to contribute by training the young people. Plus, she also saved my life from a Dragon Clan shit stick."
The people were stunned and when Shi Lang finished narrating the entire chain of events, they agreed and Amethyst said, "You will be her host."
Shi Lang bowed to them and said, "Yes, Senior."
After that Shi Lang left with Allure, no one knew where they were headed but they did not comment. Shi Lang's journey was not an easy one, and he was still willing to go on. They could only see how it will unfold.
