<h4>Chapter 715 Trouble At The Gates.</h4>


    Shi Lang and the two were told to get to the Forger city immediately. Tian Long had arranged a ce to stay for them. This ce was located in the northern part of the Central ins. It was the hub for weapons and artifacts forging in the immortal in.


    Demonic forces had often attacked the ce to disrupt the operations here. Many big forces have their forgers to procure the weapons for the soldiers. Tian Long had sent Shi Lang and the rest to stay with the Dragon Army forger team members.


    In the Centurion Tournament, there were a few unspoken rules. The strongest person in the cities would be the uncrowned King of the city for the next five years. The duration may not be long because the centurion tournament was held every hundred years.


    However, the winner will get a hefty discount on purchasing raw materials in five years. This may seem too petty, but these big forces maderge orders for their forces, costing them a lot of money. Another thing that made it so hard to ascend to the top rank was the gathering of talents.


    Since the city was so crucial, how could Tian Long be the only one scheming to send Shi Lang here? There were other ces where Shi Lang could have emerged on the top. But the Heavenly Dragon Sovereign wanted to capture this forger city. In theing time, Shi Lang''s rifle would be the primary spiritual weapon. It was not that the people did not like spirit swords and other cold weapons, but the rifle was optimal for mass area control.


    Shi Lang handed the rifle to the Cao brothers and his partners. He would not go back on his word and be a businesspetitor. But Shi Lang was going to design things like grenades and repeat-firing rifles.


    He would make one more thing, but it waspletely a secret. This weapon will grow up to be symbolic of the Asura Hall.


    Three people came off the spirit vessel and stood at the city gate. Shi Lang was observing the gates and machines ced above the arch.


    Bo Qingtan looked at the gates and let out a whistle, "I cannot imagine how they forged it."


    Shi Lang replied, "One person did not make it, and if you have doubts, use your spiritmunication to talk. Otherwise, the people will call you a country bumpkin."


    Bo Qingtan was surprised, and Yun Xue chuckled. She nudged the young man with her elbow as they followed Shi Lang up to the guard post.


    The guards were all burly, and one was an Immortal Lord. The Immortal Lord saw three people approaching them and said, "Stop, who are you, and what do you need here?"


    Shi Lang raised his brow and said, "We wish to enter the city. What is the entry fee?"


    The Immortal Lord furrowed his brows and checked them with his spirit sense. Shi Lang''s gaze turned colder, and he asked, "What is the meaning of this?"


    The immortal lord snorted and said, "Hmph, why are you making a fuss? This is a normal security check. Now, bring me your space rings. We will check it and then return it to you."


    Shi Lang tilted his head as he checked out the guard from head to toe. Yun Xue and Bo Qingtan were also ring at the guy with anger. Shi Lang said, "Are you sure?"


    The guard was surprised, and then he chuckled. The guards beside him also had mocking smiles on their faces. The head guard asked, "What do you mean if I am sure? If you do not want to hand over your space ring. Go back to whatever cave you came from. We have enough crowd inside the city, anyways."


    Shi Lang took a deep breath and reined in his anger. He turned around and said, "You will pay for what you did, and I will make an example of you."


    He walked away from the ce because he knew someone from the city woulde seeking him once he did not appear inside.


    Bo Qingtan was the calmest among the two, not because he was not offended but because he knew these two people would make the guard pay for his insolent behavior. He was thinking about something else.


    He looked at the guards again and found that their armors were engraved with symbols of the letter Zhu. He thought of something and caught up with Shi Lang and Yun Xue.


    Thedy asked, "What were you doing?"


    Bo Qingtan replied, "I was thinking about why this small-time guard acted so preposterously."


    Shi Lang replied with a calm tone, "A big family backs him."


    Bo Qingtan nodded and said, "You noticed the engraved character?"


    Shi Lang shook his head and said, "It is the quality of his weapon."


    Yun Xue nodded and said, "I also noticed his mace looked simple, but it was a thousand-refined ck star iron weapon."


    Bo Qingtan scratched his head and asked, "I do not understand all this, but I noticed a character engraved on the back of his armor."


    Yun Xue asked curiously, "What character?"


    Bo Qingtan said, "Zhu."


    Shi Lang nodded and said, "Forget it. Someone wille looking for us."


    The three nodded and took a seat on a cliff outside the city. Many people left the city, and many people entered the city too. Shi Lang watched them all and saw how the people tried to avoid the head guard.


    A young man wearing red and ck hanfu came out of the city gate, and the usually confident head guard''s face scrunched up. He distanced himself from the young man.


    The young man did not care about him and asked, "Can you tell me if you have seen a trio of young people?"


    The guard replied, "Lord Yang, many people go in and out of the city. How can we remember them all?"


    The young man gazed at the guard calmly and said, "If you people are still up to your petty tricks, you will suffer."


    The head guard was shocked. He did not know what kind of person could make Lord Yang walk to the city gate. He wanted to ask Lord Yang who this person was, but the young man quickly left.


    He quickly moved around to search for the people he was looking for. Shi Lang saw him and asked, "Are you Yang Tie?"


    Lord Yang looked at Shi Lang and approached quickly, "Are you Young Master Shi?"


    Shi Lang nodded. Young Master was his title as the champion of the Dragon Amry. Yang Tie sighed and said, "Young Master, what are you doing here? I was waiting for you inside the city."


    Shi Lang sighed and said, "I apologize for your trouble, but the head guard at the gate wanted to skim through my space ring before I entered the city."


    Yang Tie was instantly enraged and clenched his fist. He said, "Please follow me, Young Master. I will get you an exnation about this situation."


    Shi Lang shook his head and said, "I can get the exnation alone. Please handle the forces behind this guy. Can that be done?"


    Yang Tie smiled and said, "Young Master, the banner of the heavenly dragon stands supreme."


    Shi Lang chuckled and said, "I did not expect old man Tian to have such prestige. Well, good for him. Come on."


    Yang Tie nodded. He was not surprised that Shi Lang addressed Tian Long in such a manner. Shi Lang had a reputation that had spread widely and far. He was a legend, especially in the dragon army camps and among the people.


    The world may think that he achieved his glory by riding the coattails of the sovereigns, but they all knew that it was his effort. Tian Long himself had said that Shi Lang killed the demon kings with the cooperation of the Sovereign.


    Yang Tie had long wanted to see this guy, and today, he got to see if Shi Lang was true as Tian Long said he would be.


    Shi Lang and the rest arrived before the gate again. They had asked Yang Tie to watch over them in the distance. The head guard saw them and smirked, "So, you beggars have decided toe back?"


    He extended his hand and said, "Do not waste time. Hand me the rings. I will return them to you in a quick bit."


    Shi Lang smiled, looked at the hand, and asked, "Sir, head guard, are you sure there will be no more trouble if we hand you the rings?"


    The head guard smiled and nodded heavily as he said, "What trouble could there be? We all should take care of each other, right? Come on. There must be good things for you to attend to. Let''s get it over with."


    Shi Lang gazed at the hand before him and waved his hand. None of the people expected him to release his sword intent. The head guard had no chance to react, let alone defend himself. The terran smiled and said, "You are correct. Let''s get it over with."


    A wail echoed at the city gate. Yang Tie gulped a mouthful and as his eyes sparkled with excitement, he mumbled, "Forger City is going to be lively now."
