Two hours later, Shen Lang received the surveillance video from Song Shadao. He then directly copied the video onto a disc and mailed it to the Tang Clan in Shu.
Shen Lang knew that Tang Jiutian must be furious right now, but he also believed that as soon as Tang Jiutian saw the video, he would calm down.
After finishing this, Shen Lang returned to the villa and continued to accompany Wang Yuyan.
If the feeling with Gu Qinghan was warmth, then the feeling with Wang Yuyan was happiness. That moment of pure joy made Shen Lang feel as if he were addicted.
Shen Lang spent his days exploring with Wang Yuyan, cooking together, and at night, sleeping together. They woke up together the next day. They were newlyweds, but also like a couple who had just started dating, with a letter of guarantee in their hands.
They spent eighteen days of such blissful days together, and their relationship reached a point of being as intimate as water and milk, inseparable.
In the hearts of Wang Yuyan and Shen Lang, each had become the most important person to the other.
After eighteen days, Shen Lang finally had something serious to do.
Shen Lang had promised Song Shadao that he would bring He Yaodong back to Longguo for trial. Now that Qin Long and the others had recovered from their injuries, Shen Lang knew it was time to complete this task.
On the morning of the eighteenth day, Shen Lang reluctantly bid farewell to his new wife, then went to the Wuwei Department.
"Team Leader Shen—"
On the training ground of the Wuwei Department, Qin Long, Xiong Zi, and ten others, fully equipped, stood respectfully. Upon seeing Shen Lang, they were excited and shouted.
"Everyone, long time no see. It seems you are all in good spirits."
Shen Lang, nourished by Wang Yuyan's love, was beaming and had a smile on his face. He looked at Qin Long and the others and said with a smile, "You all worked very hard in the last grand martial arts competition, bringing great honor to Nanling. I hope you will continue to work hard this time and bring great honor to Longguo."
"Team Leader Shen, rest assured, we will bring He Yaodong back even if it costs us our lives."
Qin Long patted his chest and promised, "Last time we were tricked by that old bastard He Yaodong, resulting in more than a dozen of our brothers and sisters killed or injured, and we only managed to escape thanks to your connections. We dare not forget this humiliation for a single moment."
Qin Long looked at Shen Lang and said, "After the last grand martial arts competition, we have been continuously practicing and integrating the 'Eighteen Dragon Subduing Palms.' With real swords and guns, the three of us together can guarantee the killing of any expert below the Earth Realm intermediate stage."
Two people could restrain a tiger, and three could subdue a dragon. The 'Eighteen Dragon Subduing Palms' were designed to defeat enemies in a formation of three. Qin Long's words were not an exaggeration.
Shen Lang had no doubt about this, as the moves of the 'Eighteen Dragon Subduing Palms' were evolved from the attacks of various beasts, and the footwork was innovated from ancient military formations.
A group like Qin Long, Xiong Zi, and Long Zi, even just three of them combined, could easily capture and kill an Earth Realm expert.
"Very good. It seems you have been preparing all along, just to wash away the shame."
Shen Lang patted Qin Long and the others on the shoulders and said with a smile, "I am very happy to see your determination. However, besides the 'Eighteen Dragon Subduing Palms,' I will also teach you a set of sword techniques."
As he spoke, Shen Lang picked up a Han sword from the nearby weapon rack. But as he held it, he snapped the wooden sword in half with two fingers, thus turning a long sword into a short sword.
Under the watchful eyes of Qin Long and the others, Shen Lang began to wield the short sword. Shen Lang's sword moves were incredibly fast, like a storm, wave after wave, making one feel as if they were submerged under dozens of meters of tsunami, experiencing the despair of helplessness.
Qin Long and Xiong Zi had no weak martial arts cultivation, but seeing Shen Lang's swordplay, they believed that in Shen Lang's hands, they would not be able to block even a single strike.
Shen Lang's sword technique consisted of eight moves, each extremely perilous. After Shen Lang finished, Qin Long and the others were already drenched in sweat from fear.
"This set of sword techniques is called the 'Eight Killing God Moves.' Its creator is my master. When combined with the 'Eighteen Dragon Subduing Palms,' its power is even greater. You must practice it diligently."
Shen Lang looked at Qin Long and said with a smile, "Forge a batch of short swords suitable for practicing this sword technique as soon as possible, and then lead them in practicing it. If you have any questions, you can ask me, and I will personally guide you. We will head to Dongguo in three days, and I hope you can master this sword technique quickly."
"Brother Shen, you are truly a prodigy. Rest assured, I will forge a batch of short swords as soon as possible and lead them in practicing this sword technique proficiently."
The longer Qin Long knew Shen Lang, the more he respected him, because Shen Lang was sometimes like a god, seemingly omnipotent.
"I trust your work. In that case, I'll be going now."
Shen Lang looked at Qin Long and said with a smile, "Before I came, I recorded a video of this sword technique. I will send it to you later. It not only includes a step-by-step breakdown of the moves but also the key principles of the moves and the methods for circulating internal energy. Please remember to receive it."
"Thank you, Team Leader Shen."
Qin Long and the others shouted in unison upon hearing Shen Lang's words.
Under the admiring gazes of everyone, Shen Lang left the Wuwei Department and went to the Forget Worry Tavern.
When Shen Lang arrived at the Forget Worry Tavern, he found An Lan busy in the tavern. She was washing glasses by herself, busy, but with a smile on her face.
"Sister An Lan, it seems you really like this peaceful life."
Shen Lang walked into the tavern and approached the bar, smiling at An Lan.
"Shen Lang, why are you here?"
Seeing Shen Lang appear, An Lan's face showed surprise and joy as she said.
"What? Don't you want to see me?"
Shen Lang looked at An Lan and said with a smile, "It seems Sister An Lan has found a sweetheart recently and has almost forgotten about her little brother."
"Nonsense—"
Hearing Shen Lang's words, An Lan gave him a playful glare and said, "Sister doesn't have a sweetheart. Instead, I heard that my little brother has married a beautiful bride, and this beautiful bride is the most beautiful woman in Nanling."
"The most beautiful woman in Nanling? Who made that evaluation?"
Shen Lang smiled and said, "Someone like my wife is at least the most beautiful woman in Longguo."
"You really are not humble at all."
Hearing Shen Lang's words, An Lan smiled and said, "Logically speaking, you have recently found your biological parents, married a beautiful bride, and even control Nan Guo Technology. You should be at the peak of your life and full of pride. Why would you think of the Forget Worry Tavern?"
"One chooses to forget worry only when they have worries. Can my brother tell me what your current worries are?"
Hearing An Lan's words, Shen Lang sighed and said, "As expected of Sister An Lan, nothing escapes your notice. That's right, I am indeed troubled now. So, what kind of drink do you plan to make for me?"
An Lan heard this and smiled brightly, saying, "I will make you a new drink from the shop. Its name is 'Cannot Be Left.' "
After saying that, An Lan added, "What has left me, the yesterday that cannot be left."
