Running into trouble?-
.
Jiang Churan and a few of her classmates were going out. For some, to blow off steam with others like Zhang Yumeng looking for a new boyfriend. Heading to a nice hang-out spot that should have everything they wanted. However, they ran into Li Yichen, Chu Minghui, and a few of their friends.
Luo Xiao Xiao, Mo Hill, and Xiao Qian were having a little too much fun and convinced Jiang Churan who did not want to be anywhere Li Yichen from leaving.
Coming on too strongly, Li Yichen received a chop to the throat from Jiang Churan.
"KUFF! You bitch!" Li Yichen crumbled to the floor gasping in pain after speaking.
"I told you to keep your hands off me!" Jiang Churan glowered at him. She couldn't help but compare him to Rexford. Even Yang Chao respected women more than this filth did. "Mengmeng, and everyone else, I am leaving."
"Oh come on," Zhang Yumeng pouted. "no need to let him ruin the night."
"Then stay. You can become his next target." Churan was not happy with the situation at all and her words contained a strong venom to them. This was a bad idea. "I can get a cab if need be."
A few members of the Military Dragon Group blocked the exit. It was the wrong move.
"I am a member of the Ansatsuken," Jiang Churan said with fury in her voice. Ready to fight them outright to leave. "I don't need anyone to allow me to leave. I will make my own way out."
"That won't be necessary." A voice called from the side. It was code name Suzaku who happened to be in the area meeting someone. "You are not her match, move before you are put in a box at the least."
The situation diffused pretty easily after that. With most of the older teens trying to figure who this woman happen to be.
.
The following day-
.
A military vehicle drove up to the villa to pick Rexford up. One of the serving women answered the door and led them to the back. It was a woman with blue eyes and dirty blonde hair. A man with a chin strap beard and eyes that borderline on becoming red.
"Master Mingyun is in the back training." Seeing them off, she returned to her own work.
"Fancy place for an instructor." Instructor Huo said. Somewhat flippantly. "Couldn't find out nothing about him besides he moved here half a year ago."
"Instructor Huo, General Instructor Chen was appointed by the higher-ups, watch your attitude." Yu Qing said sharply. She did a little checking herself and besides finding out the new General Instructor was young, he had ties to the Community all over. "The Wei Family speaking highly of him as well a few in the Secret Department."
At the mention of the Secret Department, Instructor Huo thought something fishy was going on. As they move through the area, some noises cause the tension to rise in the two. From high impact and a few screams causing danger signals to the brain.
A sign was planted that said Gravity Field. They ignored it, thinking it was some type of joke.
"Ugh!" Yu Qing groaned taking a step onto the field. "It is not for fun!" Taking a step back she collected herself quickly and professionally. Her partner did not. "Step back you fool!"
"This is nothing!" Huo took a few more steps forward determined to not shame himself. "I can cross this!" As he progressed further, the sound of voices could be heard.
A few of the Ansatusken students walked by looking like a right mess. Covered in bruises all over and clothes ripped apart. Every one of them smiling as they exude fresh qi. Yu Qing feeling the effects felt herself falling into a state of relaxation.
"Hehe, we have the best Master!" One of the students said happily. "To think he would take the Tribulation Lightning for us!"
The group breaking into the Foundation Establishment Stage triggered the heavens. The methods Rexford used on them drawing it out. He used the powers of a Transdeance Cultivator on them to awaken different powers in their bloodline. Another benefit for people on earth and a way to prepare for the future threats.
Some had little powers that would only grow if they trained hard after awakening. The Heavens, aware they did not do it themselves had brought down the Lightning. Not only that, it was brought down because they were in the Foundation Establishment Stage with it.
Rexford fighting against the Lightning for the practice for one, but the Heavens are more than glad to target him since he did that. By the looks of his scorched skin and the frown on his face, he was most likely not going to do that again.
Well not anytime soon anyway. One of the pieces of glass he received from Leroy (Shen Yue) pulsed in his Internal Space. Tossing it out to absorb the Tribulation Lightning, Rexford thought it odd it only took in three bolts before dropping to the ground.
"Hmm," wrapping it in his Divine Sense, the glass was placed back in his Internal Space. The mini not touching it since it felt dangerous. "Hah!" Aspect Spears floating out, Rexford fought the lightning that rained down.
As time went on, it became much easier to do so. But still quite painful. As the largest bolt came down, the spears were gathered at a point before he stabbed at it. His arms mimicking the motion as well.
*KACHOWW!* The resounding sound distorted the environment on impact. Pushing against the protection seals placed down. Looking like a roasted chicken, Rexford landed on the ground watching the sky clear.
His spears slightly damaged returned to his Internal Space. As the Lightning danced around his body the Black Gold Sun Art was circulated. The heat of the lightning gave him a few benefits but the lightning itself was devoured improving his Lightning resistance itself only.
The Concept of Tribulation Crossing appearing in his head but is left alone for later. It was not something he could focus on currently. Too many other projects in the works.
"I saw nothing." Yu Qing said to her slack-jawed partner. "Not dumb enough to report this. That's a good way to die."
"Agreed." Huo got out of the Gravity Field and took the path to the side like her.
"Oh, you're here." Rexford walked over into the field after restoring the land and reinforcing the Array that protected the area. Chitang running pass to go take a bath before leaving. "I will be ready in a few minutes."
Rexford was shirtless and his pants were almost in tatters. His muscles shined under the sun as it restores in front of the two. The char was absorbed into the Black Gold Vortex along with his clothes entirely.
He changed right in front of them causing a deep blush to form in them both. Yu Qing never seen a man so built like that at such a young age. Seeing the eight-pack had her slightly drooling. That and he looked muscly in all the right places.
Huo only blushed cause he wanted a body like that but his age started making it impossible to get that fit. Little did they know Rexford definitely couldn't shape his body any higher. His genetics made it impossible to do so. Not without significant fat gain and redistribution with elixirs and spirit blood!
Which would be impossible as he trained his Earth Cultivation more. As Rexford walked, the Earth beneath his feet pulsed. Restoring his Internal Qi faster. The Earth was pleased he did not abandon it still. It was an odd feeling when he heard the whispers in his soul.
Gaia, a supporter because he was family was odd to say the least to hear. As long as he defends the various Earths visited and those like it, he has her support. Which was something he would need in the long run.
"Ye Tiannan gathered his Inner Strength when he was 17 years old!" Huo exclaimed. "You cannot possibly be a Transdeanct at such a young age!"
"Well, no sense in keeping it under wraps anymore." Rexford walked up to them waving his hands. The Gravity field was turned off, stopping in front of Yu Qing and throwing a Spirit Enhancing Pill to Huo. "The military skirt... I wouldn't say I like it. From now on if we work together wear pants."
The heat from his body kept her excited but the stern voice caused shivers to run down her spine.
"Yes.. yes sir!" Yu Qing agreed not thinking any about it.
"Your body is too weak to keep up with what's going on and what I need from you. That will not do." Rexford poked her in the forehead transferring the Enhance Taiji Methods and Taekwondo to her. "Study this well, I want to see progress soon."
"Yes .. yes sir!" Yu Qing answered coming too quickly. She watched him go over to Huo. 'I don't even do martial arts!' Lamenting a little, she was thinking to protest later, but she zipped it up seeing how the pill worked on Huo. "Amazing!"
"Oohh!" Huo Donglai hugged himself from the feeling of the qi that entered him. "I feel fantastic!" The fatigue from messing with the Gravity Field passing. Even phantom pain from years in service vanishes on the spot.
Yu Qing was embarrassed but kept her face placid. She didn't understand the pleasure the pill brought to people who cultivated. But she would in time.
.
Tang & Churan-
.
Leaving the government office, mother and daughter felt wonderful. Having received little to no help from her family beforehand made the final decision easy for Tang. With the Wei family assisting and the help of Suzaku formalities finished promptly.
"Freedom from our previous life and nothing but the future ahead of us." Tang said to her daughter. "You have nothing but choices in front of you know Ranran, what do you want to do?"
"I don't know. I do know you look way healthier and younger than before. What is your secret mom?!" The teen puffed her cheeks. The cultivation method Tang received made her skin so young and supple, that the two looked like an older sister and younger sister pair instead of mother and daughter. "Cultivation is bullshit! You look so pretty!"
Tang could only smile wryly and not tell her daughter these effects came from the qi rich semen she took in from Rexford discharged on her shirt. She was brazen but not that brazen to cause the issue.
"Same glow about you as Yanyan Hu and Sini Dova!" Churan did not mention the others since they were much further ahead in their cultivation and Wei Lan didn't look as amazing as her mom currently.
"Come on, let's get something to eat." Ushering into the car, Tang noticed a member of her family looking on. A small official that was most likely going to report the changes with her status. "Do be careful what you report, you don't want the government coming after you."
She waved at the now-busted informant. The way she said caused trouble as it was a government building and could be counted as espionage.
"Excuse me sir, what do you have there?" A security guard asked. The best thing was that he served as a student of the Ansatusken. Who was making sure the new members of the Mingyun Family did not meet with incident. "Is that a camera you have there?"
The informant pissed himself on the spot. Not because he was facing the guard, because he knew trouble was brought to the family by getting caught. The inquiry alone would most likely get him beaten.
"Mom, are you sure you are ok with saying goodbye to your family?" Churan asked as they rode along.
"Yes, for the last time. When I went to them for help with your father and how he handled my accident, they basically told me I deserved it for being stupid. Despite the fact they arranged the marriage between us." Caressing her daughter's hand, she did her best to reassure her. "You are the best thing to come out of the marriage and a few memories."
"Ok." Churan was glad her mother was on the road to happiness, but she did not forget about the matter of her looks. "Can you teach me the technique you are studying?" Her earnest look had the mother agreeing easily.
The driver kept the lookout for any issues as he headed back to the villa. He was paid very well to make sure they had no trouble. As well as the security team that followed along. The guard was so good the few standard kidnappers in the city messed up enough that the local police made some arrests.
