Chapter 314: Transcounty communication (2/2)

There was a distance of over ten thousand miles!

There was the vast Four States Lake in between, as well as several thousand miles of mountain ranges!

Before everyone had a chance to think about it some more, the buzzing sound from the communication device disappeared.

A weak static sound came from the speaker before an old voice came from it, “Hello?This is Central State’s Yun Sect and this old man is Yun Tianhe. Who are you…..”

Chu Tian gave a laugh, “Old Yun, we haven’t talked in a long time!”

“Chairman?Why is it you?Have you already finished the communication device in Imperial City this quickly?”

Chu Tian continued chatting with Yun Tianhe.The sound was very clear throughout without any sounds disturbing the transmission which once again shocked everyone.

Everyone stood up to applaud.

The Southern Summer King excitedly stood up and shouted, “Great!This is great! This invention has a great significance to the Southern Summer Country, scholar Chu is a true scholar!Someone come, bring scholar Chu one million gold coins and bestow upon him the title of great scholar!”

A small kingdom like the Southern Summer Kingdom only had the qualification to give one person the title of great scholar.

But who cared about those details at a time like this?With Chu Tian’s contributions and inventions, not to mention a great scholar title, even giving him the Country Scholar or Great Country Scholar title was not exaggerated.

From this moment forth, the Southern Summer Country would have two great scholars.

One was the hundred year old Gu Qianqiu.

The other was Chu Tian who was not even twenty years old!

When this news was passed through the kingdom, no one couldn’t help being shocked, but no one accused the Southern Summer King of violating the rules.Chu Tian perhaps did not have the fame and prestige Gu Qianqiu had, but everything Miracle Commerce did came from him and this was already enough to grant him the “great scholar” title!

When Chu Tian was becoming famous.

There were people paying attention to everything in the dark.

………..

That night.

There was a special visitor in the Departing Flame Marquis manor.

Since the Departing Flame Marquis’ son, Nangong Jian suffered a heavy loss, he had not left his manor the entire time, so no one knew what he had been doing recently.The Burning Sun Ruler and the Southern Summer King had tried placating him many times, but that did not have any use. He still could not let go of this hatred.

The Southern Summer King and the Burning Sun Ruler could do nothing about this.

There were several dim candles lit currently in the Departing Flame Marquis’ room.He was wearing a set of red cultivation robes and was currently sitting on a mat with a screen in front of him, making his figure look even more faint.A hoarse voice came out making him seem even more deep and sinister.

“For the Heroic Martial Marquis to come this late, what business do you have with me?”

The visitor was Wang Tianlong.

It was unknown if the Departing Flame Marquis had done it on purpose or not, but once he heard the words Heroic Martial Marquis, Wang Tianlong’s eyes filled with hatred.This was supposed to be a glorious title, but now it had become a shame he could not wash off!

Wang Tianlong did not explode, “The Departing Flame Marquis already knows, so why are you still asking?”

The Departing Flame Marquis was silent for five seconds before replying, “For the great scholar Chu Tian?”

Wang Tianlong softly said, “Yes, but not completely for this reason.”

The Departing Flame Marquis gave a cold laugh, “What does the Heroic Martial Marquis mean?”

“If you cooperate with me, we don’t need to worry about Chu Tian.”

“You can leave.”The Departing Flame Marquis was not interested, “As long as the ruler lives, the Nangong Family will not move against Chu Tian.This marquis cannot go against the ruler’s orders.”

Wang Tianlong said with a cold smile, “I do not believe the Departing Flame Marquis can suppress this rage.Think of your son, he was crippled! He will not be able to accept the marquis title in this life. The Departing Flame Marquis line has no successors.”

Hu!

A burst of killing intent was released.

The dim candle flame suddenly swayed.

The Departing Flame Marquis’ voice became even more hoarse, “This marquis will say it one more time, please leave!”

Wang Tianlong ignored the killing intent, “This is an once in a thousand year chance, the Departing Flame Marquis should not regret giving this chance up.”

The Departing Flame Marquis’ killing intent became even thicker, “Does the Heroic Martial Marquis not understand human words, or do you wish for this marquis to send you out?”

“Alright, but before I leave, I want to speak of an interesting rumour.This was something I heard on the War Hound Plains and I think many people will be interested in it.”

“What do you want to say?”

Wang Tianlong said in a calm voice, “There was a marquis that shook the War Hound Plains ten years ago that had an unparalleled glow.He was invincible and filled people with awe. One day, he was led to the wrong place because of wrong intelligence and was caught by the enemy.After battling for a day and night, his entire army was annihilated.”

The light from the candle around them began to sway even stronger as the atmosphere in the room became even heavier.

Wang Tianlong continued speaking with a smile, “That person that provided the false information and who was even a secret informant was the same person.It was the blood related younger brother of that Southern Summer Marquis who because of jealousy caused the death of his own brother.”

“Do you believe anyone will believe this?”

“What if the letters between him and the War Hounds Tribe is in my hands?”

The flames from the candles suddenly floated up and formed a small sword, instantly flying across the room.Wang Tianlong stood in the same place as his spirit energy was released and transformed into a flood dragon, swallowing the small sword of flames.

The entire room fell into darkness.

“What are you panicking for?”Wang Tianlong’s voice became sinister, “Do you want to silence me by killing me?This indeed is a good method, but the difference in strength between us is not big.If I escaped by chance, the Departing Flame Marquis should carefully think about how to deal with the Burning Sun Ruler and the Southern Summer King.”

The dark silence persisted for a long time.

The Departing Flame Marquis’ low and deep voice rang out, “How do you want to deal with Chu Tian?”

Wang Tianlong revealed a smile, “I’ve said it before, it is not just dealing with Chu Tian.Let us have a long talk after this.”

Peng!

Countless small flames appeared in the darkness and each one accurately fell onto a candle, once again filling the room with light.
