Lazy Immortal - 8 Ch 8 First mission

Inside the Bai residence, Jiang Long had woken up. He barely spoke and spent reading books. His maid that usually provide sexual relief could now be found freely roaming in the mansion. The healers had told Bai Long not to cultivate until the wound was completely healed. Bai Long grew frustrated as he saw this gloomy version of his son. He began to plot to kill Lan Long, he had hired a mortal pellet assassin and had him infiltrate Tian Long’s mansion. After a month of patience, assassin gave up on the mission.

“Lord Bai, Lan Long is currently inside a formation and cannot be approached. Please, forgive me this time. If the child ever leaves the Clan territory, do inform me. I will immediately kill him.” The assassin bowed and left. Although this assassin had failed, Bai Long couldn’t do anything to him. The organization that sent him was far too strong and extremely well hidden. If Bai Long killed this assassin, his clan might be put on the dreaded kill list of the organization. Last time this happened, a clan far stronger than Long clan slowly disappeared over the course of a few decades.

This organization was called Golden Arrow and it was aptly named. As long as the person had the money, they could order Golden Arrow to anyone. Their success rate was frighteningly good. Golden arrow appeared on the west continent around 2 millennia ago and had had spread like wild fire. They had assassinated from Weak government officials to mighty cultivators. They didn’t have any problems killing babies or mortals. They only asked for a payment and the name of the target. The time they would ask varied from a week to a decade depending on the target. Soon, the target would be found dead and would have a part of his body and all his possession missing.

Tian Long could only wait it out as he was not able to do anything. “Father, I need to go out and experience the world. I am far too inexperienced.” Jiang Long said with a firm look in his eyes. Bai Long could only sigh as he allowed his son to wander the world.

“Son, remember not to leave the Long Territory and do not go close to the Shi territory. They have been causing troubles recently.” Bai Long warned his son. Although he didn’t want his son to leave with his shattered spirit, Bai Long knew, if his son could overcome this hurdle his cultivation would become stronger and firm.

“Yes father.” Jiang Long sighed as he looked in the direction of Tian Long’s residence.

‘Tian Long, you and your son will pay for all the pain you had caused. This, I promise.’ Bai Long thought with over flowing killing intent.

Lan Long and his parent enjoyed the peaceful days. They would usually not interact with each other but once in a while, they would gather and have a meal together. A family made of cultivators was usually the same, they would usually spend all their time in cultivation rarely ever gathering together.

A huge pressure suddenly emerged and startled Tian Long and Su Ren, the pressure originated from Lan Long’s room. Tian Long immediately spread his soul sense and scanned Lan Long’s room. The hamster had a break through and was finally at Ki Sea realm. The hamster’s soul was nowhere near as strong as Lan Long, Ki vibrations could not be controlled and the Pressure of ethereal Ki was immense. Tian Long and Su Ren realized that he cute hamster was far strong than an ordinary divine beast. They weren’t able to come to terms with how Lan Long had seeming found his beast in his courtyard.

A few months passed in a blink of an eye, Lan Long also gained some improvements. He was now at peak of Mid Ki sea. Lan Long had never tested his strength against any one, which was he didn’t know the extent of it. Nature’s Way didn’t explain the difference between strength levels, it only provided that technique and basically told the cultivator to let thing flow naturally. Yes, the creator of the technique was an obnoxious as hell.

Lan Long would often look at the horizon during sun set. He was ready to leave his house and go adventure outside. He had once bought it up with his mother and was immediately shot down. He didn’t even get a chance to argue. Dejected he went back to cultivate and spent his time to redesign his formations. He had seen the formation covering his house and was inspired. He was able to design a defensive formation and incorporated it with the Ki gathering formation inside his body. He also did the same to Little Kong. Little Kong’s fur grew even softer and luxurious after his breakthrough. His mother and some maids were often found playing with the hamster.

Soon, another few months passed and Lan Long immediately asked for his father.

“Father, I want to go out and adventure.” Lan Long asked his father.

“Son, the world outside is cruel and merciless. The strong would prey on the weak. There is often no mercy shown to the weak. Are you certain that you want to leave?” Tian ended his warning with a question.

“Yes, father.” Lan Long replied firmly. “Also, can I have a few movement arts and escaping arts. A few fist arts would help as well.” Lan Long asked his father with a slightly red face. Tian Long almost flew into a rage, then he realized that his son is an utter monster and didn’t feel the need for any outer court arts. Tian Long sighed and produced a few martial arts manuals and handed then to Lan Long. “Keep these manuals safe.” Said as he handed a few books to Lan Long.

“Don’t worry father. I will return these in a moment.” Lan Long said as he began to flip through those manuals. Lan Long didn’t need to carry the manuals. If he read those once, he would remember the contents completely. In about a minute, Lan Long handed back the manuals. Tian Long was numb to Lan Long’s antiques at this point and didn’t even think twice before taking back the manuals.

“Lan Long, remember this. I do not ask you to be the best. I ask you to be good at your interest. If you ever walk down the path of slaughter, make blood flow like a river and paint the sky red. If you walk the of saint, be the kindest saint to ever exist. Be decisive and wise. Now, go meet your mother before you leave.” Tian Long said as he returned to his cultivation room. Lan Long made his way to his mother. Su Ren was usually, engaged in gardening or cultivation. She was currently in her yard tending to some herbs. Lan Long approached and sat on the steps leading to her yard, he was looking at his mother as she was tending to her garden. Su Ren had a light smile on her face and she was humming a light tune. The whole scene was beautiful. ‘If somebody ever hurts her, I promise, I will turn the earth upside and kill everyone related to the perpetrator.’ Lan Long promised to himself. In his previous life, his mother had passed away at a young age. Even when she was alive, she was always immersed in her business life and seldom visited him. This life was different, his current mother had showed the love and took care of him. Lan Long also grew to love her, despite his mental age.

“Mother, I am leaving.” Lan Long said as his mother was washing her hands, finished with her gardening. She immediately looked at him and frowned.

“Did your father allow this?” Su Ren asked with a haunting smile. She even had a wisp ok killing intent in her eyes.

“Yes. Mother please allow me to go. I really want to experience the world.” Lan Long said as he grabbed her mother’s hands.

“Lan Long, I will not stop you today. Remember that no matter what happens your mother will have your back on it. Remember to keep yourself safe, nothing is more important than your life.” Su Ren said as she caressed Lan Long’s face.

“Yes mother. I will be careful.” Lan Long replied with a smile.

“Remember, do not trust anyone easily. Also, remember to eat properly. Don’t tire yourself too much. Do you want a flying mount? They are much faster.” Su Ren continued for about an hour before stopping. She had a frown on her face as she walked towards the entrance to her courtyard. Lan Long hugged her for a final time before leaving and planted a kiss on her forehead.

“Mother, don’t worry. I will be fine.” Lan Long said reassuringly as he turned and walked away from his home.

‘Let’s see where to stop next.’ Lan Long had memorized the entire map available to his clan. Although, it didn’t cover the entire Chu kingdom, it covered almost more than half of it. Lan Long decided to wander around Long territory first before heading towards other territories. The adjacent territories include Shi territory, Fire school territory and Ming territory. Long clan was allied with Fire school and Ming Clan was neutral entity. Shi clan on the other hand was hostile towards Long clan. To the North of the clan territory was Beast mountain range. It was 100 million kilometers long and was governed by no one. Everyone on the west Continent knew it was full of resources and one of the best training ground for disciples. It was infested with all kinds of beasts and was extremely dangerous even to Celestial realm cultivators at its core region. Although, outer region contained loads of beasts they were of relatively low realm.

Lan Long had great interest in journeying to Beast mountain. In order to reach the beast mountain range one had to journey along the borders of Shi territory. This was the fastest route; the other route was to pass through the Ming clan but this was far too long for a detour. Lan Long decide to take shorter route and skirt along the Shi territory. The departure of Lan Long was extremely secretive as Tian Long didn’t want anyone to know of his son where about. Lan Long decided to go on foot as this was the fastest way to travel available to him. He could always ride Little Kong but decided against it. The sheer ridiculousness of the idea, the image of him riding a huge fluffy hamster was far to hilarious. Lan Long had also take a low rank mission under the alias of Lazy Immortal. The mission was to aid in collection of moon spirit grass. The mission was issued by a family of herb collectors of Green Village. Green village was situated 5000 kilometers away from the beast mountain and the mission was always available. The family would wait for the cultivator to arrive and depart when a suitable party was formed. Lan Long folded the mission pamphlet and put it away in his pouch. He then took a long breath and started to run. Little Kong was sleeping inside his sleeve, comfortable as ever.
