Chapter 912: Victorious Return.
The people were stunned by the guts Shi Lang had displayed. Elder Situ clasped his right hand over his amputated arm, and glared at Shi Lang with blood red eyes. He was enraged to the point where his blood was boiling.
However, when Shi Lang reciprocated the gesture with an indifferent gaze. Elder Situ shivered. Elder San had arrived beside him at this moment. He was baffled, but he quickly said, "Elder Tang, you came to maintain peace, and asked Xiao Lang to spare Elder Situ.
If the situation between the two halls and the three houses have been as peaceful as it may seem on the surface, I would have told him the same.
However, you saw for yourself. Not only did the disciples from the three houses attacked the disciples from Martial Spirit Hall outside, they even tried to pull the same inside the Garden Of Eden. On top of that, an elder attacking a junior, I think even if it is just to save the dignity of the older generation, this is a good lesson."
Elder Tang looked at Jian Hu with a profound gaze, and then he heard Kang Qilin speak with his spirit communication, "Elder, Junior Brother Shi Lang came across with us, but he only sparred without any intention to kill. Junior Brother Gang can be the witness to it. The three houses called this upon themselves. The Guardian Sect has bigger responsibilities. We should not meddle with them."
Elder Tang frowned, from what he knew of Kang Qilin, this disciple was soft spoken and had never stepped out of line, but at this moment, he was suggesting to stay away from this issue meant something else was going on in the shadows.
The burly man nodded and said, "I agree with you, Elder San. Elder Situ you have disgraced the dignity and a position of an elder by making a move against a junior. The young people fight and the weaker one losses. If a senior intervenes then not only are they disrespecting themselves, but also the memory of the junior who fought with all he or she had."
Elder Situ could not say anything, despite using the spiritual energy to stop the wound from bleeding, the lightning energy that was coursing his body was too destructive. He could only hear all the accusations and retorts.
Another elder rushed up to him, and fed him a pill. The pill was of high grade and it aided Elder Situ a little. He took a deep breath, before he looked at the two elders, and then thought about the other two people who could rival the elders of the three houses.
He said, "I apologize for letting you witness such a disgraceful act, Elder Tang. One of my grandsons was among the people who died, and thus I could not control the grief and lost my temper."
Elder San scoffed and said, "If not for Elder Tang, you and your bunch of shameless old men would have started a battle here. I assure you, Old Man Situ, if a day comes when we have to battle, your three houses will vanish from the face of this world."
Elder Situ clenched his able hand, and said, "You mean to say that you can stand against the seven families?"
Elder San smiled and replied, "You want to try and start a war? I said the Three houses, that means the three phony schemer families that pose around to be the high chairs. Everyone in the world knows that Situ, Du, and Ting families have the habit of running around wild and then the four have to come out and mediate your shit. I wonder if they will be happy with you guys gone from existence also."
Elder Situ clenched his fist and was about to rebuke when Shi Lang said, "Elder, we are getting late. Let us not meddle with just everyone who crosses paths with us."
He greeted Elder Tang and then turned around and walked in the void, heading toward the spirit vessel. His gesture was not a display of trust but contempt towards Elder Situ and the rest of his people.
He wanted them to act again so that he could cut them up. Shi Lang was still holding the sword in his hand and would go into battle mode the moment they attacked. Elder San almost laughed at his action, and the elders from the two sects understood that Shi Lang was not a simple disciple.
...
The dispute came to an end and Elder San drove the spirit vessel at full speed heading toward the city. Lao Yuesha and Jian Hu were standing before Shi Lang looking at him with a questioning gaze. The Terran asked, "What is going on here?"
Jian Hu leaned forward and asked, "Did you go crazy with your killing intent? How dare you attack Old Dog Situ on your own?"
Shi Lang smiled and this was enough to shock the two elders, he then undid his seals to let them see what was going on with him. His spiritual aura changed abruptly and the people were surprised. Even the disciples on the vessel did not expect this. Marissa mumbled, "Show off."
Lao Yuesha asked, "Did you really break through in there?"
Shi Lang nodded and replied, "Not only that, we settled a lot of debts with the Three houses."
Jian Hu nodded and replied, "I know, you killed their disciples. You know it is a big trouble for all of us? Not only did you kill the disciples of the three houses, but also the four big families. Those guys are usually very calm and silent, but this time, they will not stay back."
Shi Lang smiled and replied, "The four big families are Yang, Tu, Ouyang, and Mie. The people we killed belonged to the three houses. I have evidence."
Then he played the videos that were recorded by the nano bot cams he had placed all over the place. He said, "When we get back, I will record these images in the image stone and provide them to the people who come seeking justice."
Lao Yuesha asked, "If you have not killed them, then why will they come seeking justice?"
Shi Lang replied, "It is because old bitch Situ will push them to. Do you think the families can draw lines with each other? If they could, they would have done it already. However, the four families will be reasonable. I will confront them face to face."
Elder San held Shi Lang by his shoulders and asked, "Are you the same guy I know, or have you been possessed?"
He shook the Terran hard and the latter said, "Elder, I am the same, I just realized a few things on the way. Master showed me a new path, and I am now walking it."
Elder San frowned, and Shi Lang said, "I haven't changed my path, but when I reach my goal, I should remember what and who I am so that the others can remember me as well. Forget it, I have gifts for you all."
Then he took out the spirit bottles from his space ring and said, "These bottles contain spirit liquid that we all refined with combined effort. It is to be used by the inner court disciples and the merit points are to be distributed among us equally."
The elders were shocked, this was a heavenly treasure and Shi Lang was honestly handing it over. He was dividing it equally among the people of the two halls. Lao Yuesha gulped and asked, "Why didn't you all keep it for yourself?"
Shi Lang replied, "The seven star tournament is coming up and it would be nice for the senior disciples to have this. Anyway, forget that, we have a loads of stuff."
Then he and the others in the strike team revealed the space rings they have gained from all the people, and Shi Lang even took out the arm from Elder Situ. Elder San sucked in a cold breath as he asked, "Damn you, brat, Old Situ would cough up blood if he finds out about this."
Shi Lang smirked and said, "Did he think he could walk away from me after making such a move? Over my dead body, as long as I am alive, the people who attack me will pay the price."
The two halls were always cordial with each other and they quickly divided the spoils among themselves. None of the elder could understand how this group of disciples will have such a good understanding and relationship with each other.
When they reached back to the city limits, Shi Lang had finished consolidating his foundation and was sparing with Lao Yuesha. Elder San had also sparred with him and that left him astounded.
Jian Hu sighed and mumbled, 'This kid will change the status quo for good now.'
He had already told the sect elders about there return and the tremendous victory they had achieved. When they reached their destination, Elder Yang Bingshan and the Sword Hall Master had come forth in person along with two other elders from the Broken Moon Hall to welcome them.
