99% of the online community supported the idea.

Sky Eye also made an announcement about the temple on behalf of the country. The construction of the temple would be broadcast live, making sure that there was no corruption in labor or materials.
Once the temple was built, the names of all the members of the Soan empire would be carved on the walls. Although the Soan empire wouldn’t take any money, the government would still offer it.

The Dragon Soul Temple would have an account of its own, and the government would transfer some money into that account each year.

Henry Lang never revealed the actual amount, but it would have to be a generous sum.

Hundreds of billions, at least.

“I don’t think the actual amount matters. The Soan empire wouldn’t mind it either. After all, the government has never paid them a cent, and they’ve managed to get by, haven’t they?”
“What’s the matter with you? What do you mean by that? Of course, it matters! They deserve a generous payment! Where do you live? How would you feel if 1 knock on your door?!”

Dude, you’re way over the line! That person was only offering their opinion. You don’t need to get so wound up about it!”

“That’s not right! I disagree! Yes, it’s been so many years, but has it ever occurred to you how much money the Soan empire has to pay out of its own pocket? We could let them do that when we didn’t know, but now
that the government knows about it, they can’t be stingy!”

agree! Without Mr. Himmel Soan, we would never have made so many achievements in the past two centuries. I think we should give them half of what’s in the national treasury if necessary!”

have a frightening idea. I think what we’ve seen and learned about the Soan empire is only a fraction of their contribution!”

“We must pay them a generous amount! We can’t hold back just because the Soan empire doesn’t care about the money! Didn’t they mention two trillion? I think that’s appropriate! The Soan empire should be content
with two trillion a year!”

Henry Lang read through all the comments and memorized all the suggestions. The country had to value the discussion and opinions of the online community.
He was also glad about something else. Having browsed the web pages for so long, he saw minimal foul language. The Anti Cyberbullying Act was very effective.
When Henry Lang sighed, Gordon asked curiously, “What’s the matter, Lang? Why are you sighing?”

“General, the online community is so civil now. Do you remember what it used to be? In the old days, they would have taken each other’s eyes out!”

“Yes, the Anti Cyberbullying Act is very effective, isn’t it?” Gordon nodded when he read some comments.

“If the legislation on cyberbullying had been implemented earlier, none of this would have happened.”

“What? Are you having regrets now?”

“Yes! Of course, I am! It was almost beyond redemption, and the country could have lost so much!”

If the people of the Soan empire had killed themselves, the country’s economy would be stagnant for fifty or even a hundred years!

The country’s economy was flourishing, making many other countries jealous. If it were put to a halt, other forces would take advantage of it.

The return of the Soan empire was great news to the country, even more significant than becoming the largest economy in the world.

As the saying went, it was easier to build Rome than to defend it.

Without adequate capacity, becoming the largest economy would only turn the country into a common target. With the Soan empire here, the country would be able to defend itself. The Soan empire would be the
country’s guardian angel!

That was why the government was so happy when the people of the Soan empire came back and started showering them with money and housing.

They did it to keep the Soan empire on their side. Something like that could never happen again!

Henry was still shivering about what had almost happened. They were so close.

They were so close to the inevitable!

“That teenager…”

“Shhhh!”

Henry recalled the teenager floating in mid-air, but Gordon immediately shushed him.

“Be discreet! The Soan empire hasn’t made a statement yet, so we should stay quiet as well. We don’t want to upset them by saying the wrong thing. Henry, always remember to choose your words carefully!”
“| know that!” Henry looked around before saying, “General, since there’s no one around, I’d like to talk to you about it before you leave.”

Gordon also looked around the room. This was one of Henry’s offices, and no one would come in without his permission. They didn’t need to worry about bugs or hidden cameras.
Slightly relieved, he said, “There’s nothing to talk about. Just keep it to yourself.”

“But I want to know if the teenager really is Himmel Soan.”

Do you think the Soan empire would make such a mistake?”

But wasn’t Himmel Soan…”

He has lived for over 200 years. He’s anything but ordinary.”

Henry nodded. “That’s why the Soan empire is so powerful…”

don’t think so. If you ask me, Himmel Soan is the powerful one!” Gordon offered a different opinion.

“That’s true!” Henry nodded. “Without the adequate capability, Himmel Soan would never be able to train so many people. That’s to say, he’s more powerful than all the people of the Soan empire put together. Right?”
“What’s the point of discussing it? He was flying and has turned into a teenager! We both saw it with our own eyes! There are also the three divisions. We used to want to study their secrets. What now?”

“Yes! That’s right! I guess we’ve found the answer!”

“Don’t tell anyone. We don’t want to offend the Soan empire. We should also take care of the reporters, cameramen, and pilots of that day. Although the Soan empire hasn’t said anything, we should be discreet! We
can’t afford any leaks!”

“Of course! Don’t worry! I know what to do.” Henry nodded.

Gordon asked, “By the way, did Drake or Phoebe contact you? Where are they now?”.
