Armipotent

Tang Shaoyang furrowed his brow. From the way Baccara agreed to form the contract, it seemed like she wanted him to do something. And yet, she had not yet mentioned that condition.

“What’s the condition for the contract?”

“I like a person who is quick to catch like you. I just need you to kill one person for me. You don’t need to resurrect me or anything. Kill that person, and I agree to form a contract with you!”

“You haven’t mentioned the name or the status of the person you want to kill.” It felt like Baccara tried to hide the target’s status and wanted to make the contract first. It looked like she was afraid that he would back down if she mentioned the name or the status.

If Baccara was not afraid of him backing down, then she would have mentioned the name before forming the contract. It was as if she tried to trap Tang Shaoyang in the contract.

Baccara tried to look away, and that just made her even more suspicious. It seemed like the person she wanted to kill was a big name to make her hesitate.

“Who is the person you want to kill?” Tang Shaoyang was pressured.

At this point, Tang Shaoyang was no longer suspicious of her but certain that the target might be too strong for him. At least for the current him.

Baccara let out a sigh and mentioned the name, “His name is Ammor. One of the Dragon Guardians in The Dragon Realm!”

She expected some reaction from Tang Shaoyang, thinking he might know the name. Ammor or known as Sky Dragon in the Dragon Realm. One of the eight strongest dragons in the Dragon Realm.

The main problem was not just because Ammor was too powerful. But killing one of the Dragon Guardians was the same as making an enemy of the entire Dragon Realm.

To her surprise, Tang Shaoyang did not have any extreme reaction after he mentioned the name. It felt like Tang Shaoyang did not know who Ammor was.

Tang Shaoyang did not react at first, but he gradually digested the information from Avyn. Avyn was the only one who knew the most about the Dragon Realm. It was thanks to her inherited memories from her ancestors.

After listening to everything about Ammor. Not just how powerful this Sky Dragon was, but also the status of the God Guardian. He realized why Baccara hesitated to mention the name.

“That’s too much for a condition, no?” He let out a chuckle.

Baccara tried to trap him in the contract. But he understood why she did go that far.

The three-titled spirit let out a sigh. She had her hopes high, thinking Tang Shaoyang did not know about Ammor. It looked like he knew something about Ammor. Then she realized that the Kankara’Xeo spirit might be the one who told him about Ammor.

“But I will still accept the condition if you also agree with my condition. Let’s make it far, shall we?”

Baccara’s eyes glowed. It was a different type of glow than the excitement earlier. It was the glow of determination that she would agree regardless of the condition. She was ready to sacrifice herself in order to get Tang Shaoyang to agree to her condition.

Her desire for vengeance could not be held anymore. The desire she buried, thinking that no one would agree to the crazy condition. Tang Shaoyang was not the first person who summoned her, after all. That was why she was familiar with the contract rules. She had been summoned several times and was refused several times as well.

“Once I have enough Spirit Energy. I will resurrect you, and you will dedicate your life to my empire. Not just you, but also your descendants! You will live for the empire for the rest of your life, and your descendants will hold the same duty. You and your descendant will become the Guardian Beast of The Tang Empire!”

“And one more. One of my people will also inherit your bloodline. Don’t you worry? I am not asking for you to do the Bloodline Ritual. I just want your bloodline for my people!”

The Bloodline Ritual would take the lifespan of the beast. It was what Rumru did for him back then. However, he did not have an intention to shorten Baccara’s lifespan. He just wanted the normal bloodline. Just like how the Mistovel Family produced their Drake Bloodline.

Baccara hesitated for a moment when she heard the condition. But her desire for vengeance was bigger than she thought. It did not take long for her to make the decision, agreeing with the condition.

Tang Shaoyang returned to his human form as Baccara slowly descended. Their foreheads glowed in a bright light as the contract was forming. The blackbird turned into a light ball and entered Tang Shaoyang’s forehead. The contract was formed.

“So just you know. We will not go to the Dragon Realm and look for Ammor immediately. I need time to get stronger before facing that Sky Dragon!”

The contract did not specify the time when he had to kill Ammor. And if Baccara put the condition within a specific time, then he would not agree to that.

From what he heard from Avyn. This Sky Dragon was just as strong as her ancestor back then. It was back then, ages ago. That Sky Dragon might become stronger if he was still alive.

[I know!]

Baccara immediately responded.

[What is this? Why are you collecting such low-rank spirits?]

She was in The Spirit World and immediately noticed the Grade A+ Spirit and below. Half of his spirits were Grade B spirits. He got them when he thought of creating a spirit army. He summoned them with whatever sacrifices he had. That was why he got so many Grade B Spirit.

“Be more respectful please!” Tang Shaoyang reminded Baccara.

He felt the fluctuation of negative emotions from the other spirits. Even Doombringer and Afi did not like Baccara. He felt their emotions.

“Instead of speaking useless blabber, you better help me to get stronger faster. That way, you can achieve your desire faster.”

Tang Shaoyang went with ‘AH’, remembering a skill that he had forgotten. That was right, he had a skill to rank up his spirit, Spirit Advancement.

He forgot about the skill because of Spirit Blessing. Back then, he used the bodies to summon a stronger spirit. Then he acquired Spirit Blessing skills to upgrade the spirit’s rank. But there was a limit for Spirit Blessing. He now only had two blessings left. To get more blessings, he must advance to the God Rank first.

He kinda forgot about the Spirit Advancement because of his obsession with summoning stronger spirits. Another issue was that he had too many skills. Sometimes, having too many skills made him forget about the other skills.

Spirit Advancement consumed the sacrifice just Spirit Summoning. His obsession with summoning stronger spirits made him forget the skill. He had several domain skills that he never used as well.

It was just typical of Tang Shaoyang to forget about the skill just because he rarely used it. He only remembered the skill after Baccara reminded him.

But there was an issue with the skill. He promised the spirits of their resurrection. That was how he could make contracts with so many spirits back then. If he ranked them up, then it would take more Spirit Energy to resurrect them.

He needed to discuss the issue with the spirit. They certainly were happy to be stronger, but that would delay their resurrection. Especially with how slow Spirit Energy’s regeneration was.

Tang Shaoyang put the issue in his mind as he rose to the sky. The Demon Capital was busted, destroyed, frozen, and burnt. No one was left alive in the Demon Capital.

He recalled all the spirits and left the Demon Capital, heading back to the Aidan Continent.

*** ***

Hemlin and Forlan were quite concerned that Tang Shaoyang went to the Demon Continent alone. Even though they knew how strong Avyn and Tang Shaoyang were. They were still worried since Tang Shaoyang was heading to the home of the demon.

He did not know what kind of traps the demon had. The demon might have a trick that could bring down Tang Shaoyang. That was what made them worried.

“Shouldn’t we send more reinforcement to help His Majesty, Sir?” Hemlin could no longer bottle his anxiety and asked Zaneos.

Even though Zaneos was lower ranked than him, Hemlin addressed the demon respectfully. Who knew what kind of status this demon had in the Tang Empire.

Zaneos shook his head, “There’s no need. We just need to trust him. If he could kill the seven gods, do you think those demons are a problem to him?”

If it was just Tang Shaoyang alone, Zaneos might be worried as well. However, Tang Shaoyang was not alone. The spirits with him, including the freakish dragon, Avyn.

Hemlin was about to convince Zaneos until Tang Shaoyang landed on the temporary camp. He landed next to Hemlin, “I have killed the Demon Sovereigns and his underlings, including the Demon Capital. Prepare the necessary preparation for my army to cross to the Demon Continent and wait for further instruction from my people.”

“Yes, Your Majesty.” Hemlin bowed his head.

Even though Hemlin looked calm on the outside, his heart was racing. He could not believe that in a little over an hour, the Demon Capital along with the Demon Sovereign was obliterated.

He knew Tang Shaoyang was strong, but this was far stronger than he imagined to the point being it was ridiculous in his eyes.

Tang Shaoyang then turned toward Zaneos, “They want to try the dungeons, so prepare for that as well.” He could not wait to go back, back to his daughter, “Then I will leave them with you, Hemlin!”

‘I entrust them with you, Hemlin! If anything happens to these people, then he would take the responsibility.’ That was what Hemlin perceived from Tang Shaoyang’s tone.

“You can trust them to me, Your Majesty.”

After making an arrangement for Zaneos, he then left the camp, back to Earth. As soon as he returned to Earth, he recalled all his people inside the Dimensional Tower. It was a war call, forcing everyone to return when he mentioned it was a war against the demon.
