Chapter 494: Consolidation

Skyfire Jiang Hua wiped out his whole clan. Even if Sage didnt have much of a connection to them, it was still hundreds of people that were murdered. Admittedly, many of them were not good people. They had killed Jiang Huas brother and so he repaid them in a similar fashion. It was exactly that practice of pulling up the roots that had irked Sage so much. Why did his Uncle Zhang have to die? Why were dozens of young children and women killed as well? Sage wasnt foolish enough to think himself a saint, or even a good guy, but he found the practice of completely slaughtering so many innocents to be abhorrent.

Thankfully, he had the Inner World. When he was dealing with the Scyzur and the Flares it had made things a lot easier to simply capture them and send them away. It was also one of the reasons he focused so much on the Hypnotic Eye. It helped him deal with problems without having to resort to wide-scale slaughter of innocent people. That said, for those who sought his life, he wouldnt hesitate to act first. This was a world of kill or be killed after all.

Sage spent a few days resting and catching up with Wan Ling and the Tiankong Siblings. They currently were taking turns, two of them left Lionheart Town at a time to go adventuring and exploring. Then when they returned the next two would go out. All except for poor Ruanfu, she had been staying in Lionheart Town this whole time to act as a deterrent. Now that Sage had returned and also advanced in rank, Ruanfu finally got the opportunity to go play. She took her fiance and climbed into an airship. Sage forced her to take along a thousand Dragoons just like the others, which also meant they brought a small fleet along with them. Unlike Sage, they didnt have the Universe Ring. Instead they brought more airships along for the Dragoons to rest in. Even with the stronger and lighter materials of this world, an Airship could only carry about a hundred passengers. The original appearance of this chapter can be found at Ñøv€lß1n.

Ruanfu and the blonde and blue eyed european kid, Wanqian Lei, left Lionheart Town with a small fleet of six airships. It wasnt an uncommon sight in Lionheart Town since the other Tiankong Siblings had been doing the same thing for the last year or so once they had built enough airships. Wan Ling encouraged them to travel since it was a flying advertisement for their product. They were also somewhat safe as long as they didnt cross any Nascent Souls. It would be surprising if another group could conduct an aerial battle at such a large scale. They had rapid firing Stumblebows on the airships, and a thousand Dragoons swarming through the air. While they flew, they constantly took turns doing flying patrols, the airships surrounded by a swarm of Dragoons made for quite the impressive sight.

Unfortunately, Sage wasnt allowed to rest and relax for too long.

Wheres my next product? You promised to supply me with new magic devices. The Airship is decades old, now!

The tiny woman, Wan Ling, was glaring up at him. Sage bowed to her, Please forgive me. Innovation and new inventions are not something that can be controlled.

He invited all the Tiankong Siblings inside while Wan Ling sat in the front passenger seat. She watched him powering up the steam engine before asking, So, this is like those tanks you made?

Sage was suddenly reminded that his tank had been smashed by those Slavers before he was betrayed by the Jade Horde. Since going on the run and then becoming a poison tester, he hadnt had any time to replace it.

He nodded to Wan Ling, Similar. The tank used two engines, one for each track while this only uses one. It doesnt have to be as powerful since this doesnt have any armor. We can also work with carriage makers to boost the popularity.

While explaining to Wan Ling, he pushed the single lever forward and then pressed down on one of the pedals to get the steam engine going. The carriage took off, rolling forward and driving in a slow circle around the large empty courtyard. After a few minutes, he ended the little display and hopped out. He walked back over to the nearby Lang Clan building and stepped up onto the porch with Wan Ling. Meanwhile, the Tiankong Siblings had not followed them, instead they were fighting over who got to drive next.

Its not really completely new, but it should do. Will the Holy Flame Sect allow you to share this idea?

This version is not strong enough to bring any armor along, and I assume youll be making a similar deal with Thousand Treasures, again, right? Also, this is only the first device. I have another great idea that will be far more impressive.

Sounds like youre trying to use me as a test dummy for a new pill you just invented.

Haha, I would never! No, I have a proposal for you. I want to transform Lionheart Town with new amenities that will improve the quality of life for its citizens and act as a big advertisement for our products.
