Chapter 2097: Second Chance (2)

After the show, everyone returned to Earth and resumed their duties. Most of them immediately went back to the unconquered Dimensional Tower. The Dimensional Tower was still the main focus of the Tang Empire, with him rarely entering it.

Tang Shaoyang no longer found any benefit in entering the tower. The reward from climbing didn’t really compare to the time he needed to clear the floor.

He could try to explore the Dimensional Tower, finding the hidden treasure or a bloodline left by powerful people. However, that would be just a waste of his time when he had a privilege from the Administrator.

Tang Shaoyang stayed in the God Realm, just in case the three factions came back after getting annihilated. The protection was gone; he needed to be cautious if he wanted to keep his territory.

Another objective was to wait for Khaya and her family. He had informed her that his territory was open, and he had installed the Teleportation Gate, naming it the Tang Empire.

The teleportation portal in the God Realm was more advanced than the teleportation he had on Earth. Of course, it was more expensive as well. It was more advanced because not everyone could use it.

Only people with his permit could use the portal, so for now, it was only he and the God Ranks in his faction who could use it. He could even put a specific name. Like how he put Khaya, Nandra, Salia, and their family into the list that could use the portal.

After setting that up, he was now sitting on the southern wall where he fought with the Auriga Kingdom, looking at the sky absentmindedly. It was a waiting game now.

[When are we going to the Sacred Realm?] Ouyang Biya thought this might be the right time to ask. However, her voice was quickly interjected by Han Taiyang.

[Are you really going to bring this demon to our world?] The Golden Sun Sovereign still had resentment for being ignored. The worst thing was that the other spirits had ignored him as well.

No one talked to him, not even the non-calamity spirit, even though he had only attacked the Calamity Spirits before. This frustrated him more, but his opinion was not based on his feelings, but on a genuine concern.

Han Taiyang had seen what Tang Shaoyang was capable of, and without a doubt, thought that this demon would bring chaos into the Sacred Realm.

[He will destroy the Sacred Realm!] He added.

[I don’t care what he wants to do in the Sacred Realm as long as I can get my revenge. I don’t care if the Sacred Realm is destroyed. As long as I can destroy those people who destroy my clan!]

”Alright, that’s enough words from you for today!” As he said that, Han Taiyang’s voice was cut off. He could no longer speak to him as he cut off his connection with Han Taiyang.

”I need to secure my territory first, and maybe after that, in a week or maybe in two weeks.”

He had two purposes for coming to the Sacred Realm. First, it was the war between the Heaven Founders and the Murim Alliance. That was the best time to get some good quality sacrifices, so he was not going to miss the chance.

Second, some big factions were bound to fall, and he was there to get their treasure. He wanted their cultivation treasures, whether it was techniques, pills, or anything that would be useful for the Thousand Vows Pavilion.

Third, it was to set up a connection to the Sacred Realm. That was one of the conditions he put up to the Cladeos Emporium for their cooperation. Zhang Mengyao mentioned the talk went smoothly, but having access to the Sacred Realm would put them at an advantage in the talk.

However, Tang Shaoyang needed to stay here for a while to ensure that no one tried to take his territory over. He had an easier solution by leaving one of his spirits behind. That way, he could switch places anytime, but it was kinda annoying. He would rather settle now and be done with it so he could focus on other things.

He yawned while waiting, and maybe it was a good time to bring out the coffee in his inventory. Before he could take his coffee, he finally got an update from his spirits.

The three factions that attacked him were an alliance of the three kingdoms that neighbored his territory. The Auriga Kingdom, the Crazules Kingdom, and the Ridian Kingdom.

From each force, he let free one person, the strongest one, who might be the commander. His spirit and the skeletons knew to hold back and spared the commander. They left the same messages and let them return.

Of course, Tang Shaoyang was not that compassionate to overlook the fact that they tried to take his territory. He sent the remaining three shadow spirits to follow them and tried to gain more information about what these three factions were up to after being annihilated.

Tang Shaoyang expected that they would not try to attack him again and would try to send a delegation to make up for their attempt, or just pretend nothing happened while being wary of him.

However, people’s minds were so complicated that sometimes they would make a decision that didn’t make sense. That just happened; these people made a decision that didn’t make sense.

The Ridian Kingdom’s King held an emergency assembly, and they agreed to send a delegation as Tang Shaoyang predicted. They agreed to amend and prepared compensation for their transgression. They came up with such a decision when they found out that he was an Executive Administrator.

The Ridian Kingdom made a sensible decision, but that was not the case with the Auriga Kingdom and the Crazules Kingdom. Even after finding out that their enemy was an Executive Administrator, they didn’t back down.

The Auriga Kingdom’s decision was split. Half of them tried to stop the King from escalating the matter, but the other half encouraged the king to launch a full attack on the Tang Empire. They tempted the King with the glorified achievement of being a faction that managed to destroy an Executive Administrator’s faction.

The King of the Auriga Kingdom made the decision based on that alluring glory and ignored the voice of the other half in his court. However, that was not the only reason. It seemed the person he sent back seemed to piss the King, and that might also be another reason why the King wanted to attack the Tang Empire again.

As for the Crazules Kingdom, the whole court was composed of crazed people. The King called for an emergency assembly, and they didn’t really care about his status as the Executive Administrator.

That was when he found out that the King had lost his crown prince. His beloved son died in the same battle. Then, other high-ranking nobles also lost their scions because they sent them to accompany the crown prince, to curry favor for the future king.

They thought it was an easy war because their enemy was a new faction, but their army was annihilated. Their sons were killed in the battle. The commander who returned was immediately beheaded as well.

Tang Shaoyang stood up and summoned Skelly8, the Vipera Hydrozo Skeleton. An assassin-type skeleton that used a dagger and poison. The poison was similar to Dark Poison, but Skelly8’s poison was the weaker version of his Dark Poison.

However, Skelly8’s poisons were varied as he could concoct the poison with his mana. That was right, Skelly8 could make a variety of poisons that worked differently for different circumstances.

Tang Shaoyang then summoned the Skeleton Army, three thousand of them. The three thousand Skeleton Army was created based on Skelly8’s model. They were all assassin types.

Lastly, he summoned a Keeper who would act as the overseer and maybe help them as well. After that, he recalled the spirit he sent to the Crazules Kingdom.

”You will lead them to the Crazules Kingdom!” He turned toward, ”Your duty is to kill all their soldiers, all of them with no exception, but spare the civilians. We will have someone to take over that territory later! And you take what you kill!”

As soon as they got the order, they disappeared from sight.

Meanwhile, Jet the Sky of Abyss caused a ruckus in the Ridian Kingdom’s assembly meeting room. Tang Shaoyang switched places with Jet and appeared in the middle of the long table.

Tang Shaoyang let his aura loose, which sent many people to their knees, but some of them managed to stand still. The guards burst into the assembly room, and their bodies wobbled for a moment before they regained their footing. Some of them even used Bloodline Transformation to endure the aura.

He turned toward the King, who was in his mid-forties, ”My name is Tang Shaoyang of the Tang Empire.”

”I have heard your discussion, and I am glad that you don’t make a stupid decision like your neighbor. Send your delegation in three days, and for now, just keep an eye on the Crazules Kingdom. You will find out what it means to be my enemy!”

Before anyone in the room could respond, Tang Shaoyang switched places with the spirit in the Auriga Kingdom. What they saw was a giant wolf made of shadow, but it quickly disappeared as well. That left everyone in the assembly room flabbergasted and terrified. The fact that Tang Shaoyang spied on them, and no one noticed, was scary.

Meanwhile, Tang Shaoyang appeared in front of the familiar face. Alger regained his legs, and the man stared at him with his eyes widened in shock.

”I am here to give you and your kingdom a second chance, Alger!”
