Chapter 680 Reward & Trouble.


    Shi Lang fought with the horde of demonic beasts till the morning. He did not rest even for a second while he was fighting. None of the people stopped him because they could sense he was practicing. His moves were different, but the feeling they gave was consistent with the sh he used against the demon fox. Tian Long told the people not to disturb him as he consolidated what he had learned thus far. The dragon army was happy with this because they could reap more benefits with Shi Lang around. Till now, the human side had suffered only a few casualties, and they were all people from an older age. Many of the young suffered great injuries, but it was all under control. Shi Lang''s strategy had changed the flow of battle, and in the future, whenever the demons tried to flood the front, they would be met with a defense like this. When Shi Lang finished dealing with the beasts, he stood on the ground with his spear stabbed beside him while his hand grasped the hilt of his sword. His body was covered with wounds of all sizes. He was not invincible but did not stop killing until the sun was on the horizon. The ground was littered with corpses. He took a healing pill and stood his ground. He was going to meditate and recover from his injuries. It was noon when Tian Long and Fairy Moon Jade approached him. They had many immortal emperors and Immortal kings following them. Shi Lang opened his eyes, and Tian Long said, "How are you recovering?" Shi Lang replied, "The side effect of using the song of death will take some time. The rest of the injuries were small issues. What brings you here?" Fairy Moon Jade said, "You have contributed greatly in this battle. With a unanimous vote, we have decided to award you the Champion of the Dragon Army rank title." Shi Lang raised his eyebrow and cupped his fist to Fairy Moon Jade while asking, "Your Excellency, please tell me what obligations I have as the Champion of the Dragon Army?" Tian Long smiled and said, "You do not have any obligation as such. Juste over when the situation demands it. This title will prevent those hypocrites froming after you." Shi Lang looked suspiciously at the sovereign and asked, "What hypocrites?" Tian Long said through his teeth, "The so-called big families of the central in." Shi Lang was curious to know more but realized the time or ce was not yet. He nodded and watched Fairy Moon Jade take out a jade medallion. She said, "This medallion serves two purposes. One of them is to have the dragon army follow all yourmands on the front. You cannot use them for personal gain." Shi Lang nodded and asked, "The second purpose?" Thedy said, "You can visit the Jade Towers in any city for free." Shi Lang was stunned for a second and said, "I did not expect Your Excellency to have such a card up your sleeve. I wish us a happy cooperation."


    The people were surprised; they had not expected Shi Lang to say such a thing. How dare he treat the Sovereign in such a casual manner. However, before they could say anything, Fairy Moon Jade asked with a smile, "So, what is it that you want to cooperate on?" Shi Lang raised his left hand and revealed a spiritualmunicator. On the other side, Amelia had finished familiarizing herself with the device and used the spirit formation array to contact the person she had longed to meet for so long. Shi Lang was about to introduce themunicator to Amelia, but suddenly, the device glowed subtly. In the void above his hand, a text appeared. The text was written in thenguage of the federation, and Shi Lang was shocked. He froze as he read the text. Then his eyes turned soft, and water gathered on the brink of his eyelids. The people around them all looked at him with surprise, and the device caught their eyes, but the change in expression of this young man surprised them even more. Shi Lang took a deep breath and calmed himself. He said, "Would you believe it if I tell you that this message is delivered right from the northern provinces and is all happening in real-time?" Tian Long was the first to wave his hand and said, "Oh, please, how can you joke with us like this?" Shi Lang did not say anything and controlled the arrays to reply to the message on his own, and then everyone watched the symbols change. One of the experts said, "Commander Ace, even if you want us to believe that this thing is capable ofmunicating. Can you please use the native text of Immortal in?" Shi Lang was shocked, and then he chuckled. He nodded and typed a message in the native text, saying, ''Amy,municate in the native text for a moment. I have a few people who wish to buy themunicator. This is a good marketing opportunity.'' A few secondster, everyone was stunned, ''You want to use this time to market this lousy product? Do you even care for your wife? You have certainly changed aftering out here. I am warning you, do not think I am on my own in this foreignnd. I will beat you up.''


    Shi Lang smiled and said, "Do not mock me, seniors, but my wife is upset that I have not given her any time to meet her in a long time." The people were surprised. Shi Lang held a proper conversation with Amelia and told her that he woulde to meet her at the Centurion Tournament. Thedy calmed down, but Tian Long did not believe Shi Lang and asked him to type a text specifically asking a question that no one could have predicted. The terran did as told, and when Amelia answered the question, everyone was shocked and realized that Shi Lang was telling the truth. One of the older people asked, "Young Friend Ace, can you tell us how this works?" Shi Lang smiled and said, "I apologize, elder, but an elusive senior invented this device. I have not met him often, and he does not wish to dwell on the secrets. He only says that this device will help usmunicate with the help of spiritual essence. I know how this device works, but I have no idea how the spiritual messages are exchanged." The elder nodded and said, "Some old Immortal Sovereign can be living in seclusion to develop something like this. Say, young friend, can you sell me this device? I will pay you fifty thousand supreme spirit stones." The elder was dignified, and even Tian Long did not speak much to intervene. Shi Lang shook his head and said, "I apologize, senior, but this device has been paired with my spiritual essence; it will do you no good. Another thing is that tomunicate with this, the person on the other end should have a simr device." The elder frowned, and Shi Lang replied, "You all do not have to worry, elders; the Jade Tower will help you buy this device. That exalted senior did promise me to sell this device in batches. However, he needed material and a distribution partner. Jade Tower is one of the most popr names in the Immortal in, and it is a ce run by Sovereign Zither Soul, who is known for her fairness. Please just be patient, and you will have this device soon." The people eased up a little. The significance of this instantmunication device could not be exined in words. This will change the face of human forces. Tian Long nodded subtly and said, "You all can leave now. The corpses have been distributed. You all go and rest. If you wish to do something, you can go to the infirmary and help the injured or man the stations to maintain vignce. Who knows when these demons will attack again." The people bowed to him slightly as they all left the ce in a blink. Shi Lang and the two were the only ones left here now. Tian Long had not only just made the others leave, but he had also cast a thin barrier. He asked, "Tell me, where did you get this?" He was not a fool to believe what Shi Lang said about the old expert in seclusion. The terran also did not hide things like how themunicator worked from them. The two Sovereigns were shocked. They did not understand what Shi Lang was thinking when he came up with this idea, but when the terrain revealed that he had his strength now, the two people understood what he was onto. After the battle, Shi Lang received not only fame but also rewards, and for the time he was inside the dragon army camp, things were fine, but as he prepared to head back to the Asura Hall, he received news that people were searching for him. Shi Lang found that he was being targeted for hismunicator and the weapon he disyed in the battle. The senior people of the big families did not interfere in the matter, and they even proimed that as long as Shi Lang joined them, they would make things smooth for him. Another thing that happened following this was Tian Long announcing Shi Lang as the champion of the Dragon Army. This meant none of the families coulde after him. Otherwise, they would have to face Tian Long, but they could still challenge him fairly. Shi Lang could not refuse any match requested, and this was the trouble that the terrain cursed Tian Long for.
