Chapter 960 Planning Ahead.
Shi Lang sat on the ground with his eyes closed. Hou Bing waved a hand and created an isolation barrier around her. She turned to look at the people who were coming over and blinked from her position to appear before them.
She said, "Everyone, I have something to discuss with you all. I hope you spare me some time."
Tong Bai was confused about the identity of this teenager, but then she saw Tian Long bowing his head and saying, "Senior, please tell us what is going on?"
Hou Bing nodded and said, "Just one minute, Xiao Long."
She looked up and said, "If you all did not stop prying down here, I will make you vanish in the void as if you never existed in the first place."Nôv(el)B\\jnn

That said, she waved her hand and the Dao sword that Juan Xuan used flew over to her side. She snorted and the blood stains on the blade surface vanished completely. She gave it to Hao Mei and said, "Xiao Mei, see to it that the promised rebate is delivered to these ants."
Hao Mei bowed and took the sword along with two space rings and left the place. Commander Silence looked at Ma Yang and said, "Set up a remote reception table."
Ma Yang nodded and quickly got the people under him to set up a round table. Hou Bing sat down at the head of the table and the other people sat down around her. Hao Mei and Yu Xeidi stood behind Shi Tao who was sitting among the elders.
After a few seconds of silence, Hou Bing said, "Revenge is always monotonous, and anti climatic. It brings no satisfaction to the person who succeeded in his motive. Originally, Shi Lang planned to come here after he crossed the realm of the Dao King. However, I forced him to come here while he was still in the Dao Lord realm."
Everyone raised their brows, Tong Bai said, "Indeed, from the information I received, he should have become a Dao King by now. Why did you stop him, senior?"
Tong Bai had tried to pry in Hou Bing's realm lightly but she could not find anything about her. Upon asking Fairy Moon Jade, she found that the entity before her was a Holy Beast.
Hou Bing nodded and replied, "I did this because I wanted him to reach the Supreme State of Mind. He has the capability to take down Kings and Emperors even when he us just a Lord. So the only thing that is stopping him from using his full strength is the psychological barrier where he needs to use caution when facing an enemy and make sure he has the power to take them down in one fell swoop.
This is not the way a cultivator of his caliber should act like. At the moment, the western continent is in a mess, and the powers there have started to look towards the southern and the norther continents to obtain control. Only a supreme can fight against a supreme and that is the law of the world."
Shi Tao asked, "What is the result of this clash?"
Hou Bing took a deep breath and said, "Either he will come out as the Supreme Tianjiao, or he will perish."
Yu Xeidi was about to say something when Hou Bing said, "If he managed to get through the battle, not only will his status rise, he would be able to enter the Tianjiao Palace and after going through a trial, he would be able to find a chance to bring back Amelia back from the wheel of Samsara."
Her words made everyone fall silent. They all looked at Shi Tao and the young lady took a deep breath before she asked, "Does he know about it?"
Hou Bing nodded, and Shi Tao asked, "Will the person who comes back from that world still be my mother?"
Hou Bing nodded and said, "Her soul was damaged before she died, and what was left behind would go inside the Wheel of Samsara. She will be fine as long as Lang brings her out."
Shi Tao clenched her fist and said, "Even if he was given the entire universe, he would give it up for her. This was nothing to be discussed at all. It is in his nature."
...
Shi Lang was sitting on the ground and he was sorting his thoughts. From now on his only goal was to revive Amelia and to do that he needed to reach a realm when he was supreme. He wondered for a long time what it meant to be the supreme.
There were many ideas related to strength, speed, power, realm. However, these things were superficial. Shi Lang knew the difference in terms of strength and power, and he also knew that even the fastest spear could be defeated. However, what the one thing that could not be defeated was the power of Dao Laws.
The world was governed by these laws, the Dao was the supreme and heavens was just a medium of manifestation for the Dao's way. If someone wanted to be supreme then the best part was to follow the way of Dao.
Thinking about it, Shi Lang looked inside him and stared at the Lotus blooming inside his Dantian. He looked at the fire seed that was levitating above the lotus, spinning around at a high speed. The Terran began to perceive his ideas and dwelled deeper on them.
…
Hou Bing looked at him and then at the rest of the people before she said, "Xiao Long, Xiao Tao, for the upcoming time. I will train Lang personally, and I need you both to step up and handle the establishment of the Asura Hall on the Eastern Continent. I will also need you all to spread the members to all the other continents to form a stable information network."
The two people nodded and Hou Bing looked at Hao Mei and Yu Xeidi as she said, "You two will follow Shi Lang, from now on you will learn from him and keep him company. Keep him from falling deep into the void that was left behind by that hatred."
They were planning ahead, and everyone could sense something in the future was going to change the dynamics of the immortal world altogether.
