Ace Of Terrans

Chapter 652 Tycoon.

Shi Lang moved through the forest with the little girl in tow. The mission he received this time was to track a fugitive. This guy was at the peak of the immortal Emperor realm, and his task would finish when he was done tracking this guy. The rest would be left to the higher-level hunter. 

Shi Lang was not in a hurry to kill an Immortal Emperor and make a name for himself. This was not the way to do things. Even if he managed to harm the Immortal Emperor, he would not be able to kill him. The terran was more interested in letting his disciple fight with some low-level beasts. 

When they entered the forests, Shi Lang spotted an Emerald sparkle rabbit. This thing looked very docile, and it may not have any presence in the hierarchy of the forest. However, it was a good enough training partner for Yu Xiedi. 

He cast a gaze at the beast and was taken aback. Usually, this thing would not come out of the burrow until it was the peak of the daybreak. At that time, most of the predators would return to their hideouts. Shi Lang compared the creature against the record in the beast compendium and found that this creature was pretty young. The adults of this species were as big as a dog, and their speeds could evade the sense of even an immortal general. 

Shi Lang waved his hand, and the spirit energy around the rabbit fluctuated and bound the creature from evading. He said, "Xiao Yu, look there." 

Yu Xiedi followed the direction of her master and found the rabbit shivering beside the bushes. The rabbit had an emerald coat, but the fur tips emitted a shimmering sparkle. She found the little thing very adorable and asked, "Master, what is that?" 

Shi Lang replied with a dotting smile, "That is an Emerald Sparkle Rabbit. It is an inferior-grade herbivorous spirit beast. However, the highest it can reach is a Beast general realm. It has a decent speed among its peers. It can make a Beast General predator run for its money." 

Yu Xiedi nodded calmly, but the sparkle in her eyes could not be hidden from Shi Lang. Shi Lang smiled and said, "This guy is your gift. I will leave you to tame it and train with it. When you can catch this guy, I will teach you other martial arts." 

Yu Xiedi asked, "Master, how should I catch this guy?" 

Shi Lang replied, "That is a task for you to figure out, my dear. The first challenge you face is to run as much as this guy can. You do not have nearly enough stamina, so you will not have as much strength as this guy. How can you catch it? Come practice breathing and run the spirit energy according to the Shura Sutra I have imparted you." 

Yu Xiedi nodded and asked, "What about the rabbit?" 

Shi Lang waved his finger, and the rabbit flew from beside the bushes and landed before Yu Xiedi. The rabbit may be small, but it knew that Yu Xiedi was not particularly strong, so it bared its bucktooth at her. However, this was not nearly enough for Yu Xiedi to feel scared. 

The young lady grabbed the rabbit from the back of its neck. She held it in her arms. She was unafraid of this beast attacking her because Shi Lang had cast a barrier on this little thing. Yu Xiedi patted the back of the rabbit gently and asked, "Master, do you know how I can tame this guy?" 

Shi Lang nodded and told her the procedure. Yu Xiedi said, "Then, how will this guy obey me?" 

Shi Lang replied, "Do not worry, I will make a temporary spiritual pet bond with this guy. When you can cultivate your spiritual energy, I will dissolve the bond and take this guy back." 

Yu Xeidi nodded. She did not mind, and from these days of learning, she understood that Shi Lang's spiritual presence would be able to deter this guy with ease. Shi Lang procured a drop of blood on the tip of his finger and flicked it at the forehead of the spirit beast. 

The drop of blood on the forehead culminated in Shi Lang's intent. How could the little rabbit deny or break free from this pressure? He gave into the spiritual pet bond with ease. The intelligence of the little guy was slightly higher than that of a toddler, and Shi Lang said, "You only have one task: play tag with Xiao Yu. Do not worry. I will not treat you badly." 

After the beast settled, Shi Lang told Yu Xiedi about the arrangement, and the little girl placed the rabbit on the ground. This little guy was not only fast, but he also had a great knack for tracking. Shi Lang told the little guy to move slowly and look for the traces of another human in the forest. 

The beast nodded and dashed around them in a circle before it ran in a particular direction. Shi Lang walked slowly, but Yu Xiedi chased after the rabbit. This was her way of training. She would run after the rabbit while carefully running the Shura Sutra to refine her body. 

Shi Lang spent three days in the forest looking for traces of another human, but he did not find anything. All the leads would turn into a dead end or lead him to someone he was not looking for. He was not in a hurry. 

...

On the other side, a lady dressed in light armor stood before the entrance of the War Maiden sect. A guard looked at her coldly and said, "The sect is closed. You are not allowed to go inside." 

The lady nodded and replied, "I am not here to enter the sect. I am here to deliver a message to one of the disciples in the sect." 

The guard softened her intent and said, "You can hand it over to me and leave." 

The lady nodded and took out a letter and a space ring to the guard. She said while handing over the ring to the guard, "You better not pire inside the space ring. The array formation on the articles inside could not be opened by someone who does not know about them. They will take away at least one of your immortal emperors if you try to use force." 

The guard was surprised, but she did not doubt the lady after all. She was a head hunter, and they were known to use such means. She asked, "Whom should I give this ring to?" 

The head hunter lady thought and said, "Disciple Amelia." 

The guard was surprised and said, "This is the second message coming for her." 

The head hunter said, "If you do not mind, please hand things to her soon. I need to bring along proof that she has accepted this task." 

The guard remarked, "To think people could be this thorough." 

Then she called a servicing disciple and told her to bring the space ring to Disciple Amelia. The disciple nodded and rushed away at a quick pace. In the past few days, they held an internal competition. The sect elders even called back the disciples who had gone out to gain experience. 

Everything happened in the short term, and it happened quickly. Amelia was put through the motions. The people did not agree to let this unknown woman lead her. The conflict was limited to the younger generation only. The elders did not stop them and left it for Amelia to handle. 

The young lady took a simple approach. She stood on a platform and defended her claim against all the challenges. The younger generation said that the girl was arrogant. Amelia was no less ruthless than Shi Lang. She broke the tactics with brutal strength. The people were forced to submit to her might. They did not have any other option left. 

They had their honor and their pride. They could not say anything that would make their stature look short. Amelia was not overbearing either, and she just let them do what they usually did. Yu Ying was in her favor because, over the days, she had been sparing with the young lady, and she knew that Amelia was not an easy opponent. 

The battle prowess displayed by the young lady was too high, and her battle sense was even greater. At this moment, she was handling a few things related to the sect. Yu Ying was her second in command. 

Suddenly, a servicing disciple rushed to the main hall and said, "I have a message for Young Mistress." 

The guard was in doubt when Yu Ying said, "Let her in." 

The guard disciples obeyed her, and they moved to the side. The servicing disciple rushed in and gave the space ring to Yu Ying. She said, "Senior sister, a head hunter is waiting outside to collect a reply." 

Yu Ying nodded and collected the ring. She then bought it to Amelia, who was reading some parchment. Yu Ying said, "Amelia, your message." 

Amelia was surprised and looked at the space ring. The elder beside her checked the ring and said, "It is safe." 

Amelia took the ring quickly and looked inside to check the content. She took out a few things and then read the letter. Yu Ying opened the small bottle out of curiosity and said, "What is this liquid?" 

She showed the content to the elder, who exclaimed, "Yu Ying, close the bottle quickly." 

Yu Ying was shocked as she watched the old lady create a barrier around the main hall. She asked, "Amelia, what did you receive?" 

Amelia said, "My husband sent me a gift. Elder, is everything okay?" 

The elder took a deep breath and said, "Young Mistress, your husband is a tycoon." 

When she explained the liquid in detail, Amelia smiled and said, "He is not a tycoon. He puts the people he cares about above him."
