Castle of Black Iron

An airboat slowly landed at the airport of Xuantian Peak of Iron-Dragon Sect…

Zhang Tie, Mountain Lifting Hermit and Bai Suxian were all standing in the airport, followed by Zhang Tie’s disciples and some stewards in Iron-Dragon Sect. It was a grand scene in Iron-Dragon Sect.

It had been late July. At about 1 pm, the sun was right above their heads. However, as there were many tree shadows in Xuantian Peak, it was not very hot over there. Additionally, cicada’s chirps sounded very melodious, leisure and pleasant. However, a solemn atmosphere still diffused among those disciples unconsciously.

This airboat belonged to Bai Suxian. After Lu Zhongming and Lin Huanxi dealt with the affairs of Minling Swordsmanship Sect in Guzhou Province, they returned to Iron-Dragon Sect officially today by this airboat.

Without this airboat, it would take Lu Zhongming and Lin Huanxi at least 4 more months to make a round trip from Fire-Dragon Bounty Territory to Guzhou Province.

Watching the slowly declining airboat, Zhang Tie revealed a faint smile.

After receiving the news that demons invaded the barren province of Taixia Country, Zhang Tie had ended up his short period with his wives and kids and returned to Iron-Dragon Bounty Territory.

Thankfully, with the establishment of Iron Heart Pavilion and the adjustment of the liquors’ taxation of Fire-Dragon Bounty Territory, the domestic affairs and businesses in Fire-Dragon Bounty Territory were also gradually on the right track. Although some aspects still needed adjustment, Zhang Tie didn’t need to be worried about that. Iron Heart Pavilion and Donder had gradually controlled Fire-Dragon Bounty Territory.

He always stayed with his family members for short periods. Over these years, Zhang Tie really had less time to accompany his family members as a husband or a father. Take this time, a few months, as an instance, it was the longest period that he had ever accompanied with his family members. Therefore, Zhang Tie always felt a bit guilty when he left his wives and kids.

However, he had to leave them. Zhang Tie was the real man at home, a human fighter, a knight in Taixia Country and the master of Iron-Dragon Sect and the owner of Fire-Dragon Bounty Territory. Numerous people were focusing on him. Each of his movements could influence the fates of millions of families and tens of millions of people. When the demons corps appeared in the barren province in the west of Taixia Country and the battle flames and smokes of the holy war covered the land of Taixia Country, Zhang Tie had to assume the corresponding responsibilities for each identity.

As the force of demons was still in the westernmost part of Taixia Country, Youzhou Province in the northernmost part of Taixia Country seemingly became the rear area of Taixia Country. That was to say, demons would not arrive at the northernmost part of Taixia Country in a few years even dozens of years. However, if Zhang Tie didn’t make a response to it until the demons arrived at the northeast military region or Youzhou Province, how could Zhang Tie and Iron-Dragon Sect resist the demons corps which had swept over the most part of Taixia Country?

Therefore, the appearance of demons corps in Taixia Country meant the start of the second fight between Zhang Tie and demons since the fight in Waii Subcontinent.

Zhang Tie felt a bit guilty about O’Laura and Linda; however, he was a bit moved by Bai Suxian who was on his side.

Over these months, Bai Suxian had been cultivating quietly in her own mansion on Immortalsgathering Peak of Iron-Dragon Sect instead of scrambling for Zhang Tie’s care with the other women. Zhang Tie knew that Bai Suxian wanted to compensate O’Laura and the other wives by having them stay with Zhang Tie alone.

Zhang Tie had not imagined that Bai Suxian could be that considerate and understanding.

After realizing the lovely aspect of Bai Suxian, Zhang Tie suddenly pulled Bai Suxian’s hand and pinched it forcefully regardless of the eye light of his disciples behind them.

Bai Suxian turned around.

“It’s my honor to have you on my side!” Zhang Tie directly told Bai Suxian through a secret means.

“You bet?” Bai Suxian replied while blinking her eyes.

“Ahem…ahem…” Mountain Lifting Hermit pretended to cough twice. Zhang Tie and Bai Suxian then looked at each other with a smile tacitly.

When the airboat landed and the hatch door opened, Lu Zhongming and Lin Huanxi got off the airboat immediately.

“Master…”

The deep bow that Lu Zhongming and Lin Huanxi made towards Zhang Tie also meant that the identities between both parties had been fixed. From then on, Lu Zhongming and Lin Huanxi joined Iron-Dragon Sect officially.

“It’s nice that you’ve come back. It’s nice that you’ve come back. From now on, we will be of the same family. Your residences and courtyards on Immortalspring Peak have been completed. You’re welcome to come back. From then on, you two will be the elders of Iron-Dragon Sect and the owner of Immortalspring Peak!” Zhang Tie smiled as he helped Lu Zhongming and Lin Huanxi stand up.

Lu Zhongming and Lin Huanxi then nodded towards Mountain Lifting Hermit and Bai Suxian.

There were over 1,000 disciples behind Lu Zhongming and Lin Huanxi, who were original disciples of Minling Swordsmanship Sect. They tidily got off the airboat in lines before kneeling down and kowtowing towards Zhang Tie, “Master…”

These disciples of Lu Zhongming and Lin Huanxi might have understood their identity in Iron-Dragon Sect. As Zhang Tie was a legendary figure in Taixia Country. All the disciples of Lu Zhongming and Lin Huanxi would like to join the sect of Qianji Hermit. With the protection of Qianji Hermit, they would be safe.

It was the first time for most of the disciples of Minling Swordsmanship Sect to meet Zhang Tie. Therefore, many people couldn’t help but glance at Zhang Tie stealthily. Zhang Tie’s young look shocked everyone greatly. Facing the fame and imposing manner of Qianji Hermit, those people dared not breathe smoothly at all.

Zhang Tie threw a glance at these disciples of Minling Swordsmanship Sect. ‘These disciples of Lu Zhongming and Lin Huanxi were not bad. The lowest rank among over 1,000 people were LV 6 fighters while the highest rank was LV 14 battle demon. After these people joined Iron-Dragon Sect, it would be more boisterous here. Immortalspring Peak might have most disciples in one period in the future.

“From today on, you will be the disciples of Iron-Dragon Sect in Immortalspring Peak. As the master of Iron-Dragon Sect, I will be fair in giving out rewards or punishments. Additionally, all the resources in Iron-Dragon Bounty Territory will be open to you. All the rules in Iron-Dragon Sect originate from filial piety, obedience, loyalty and righteousness. When you are in the Iron-Dragon Sect, be filial to the seniors; when you are outside, you need to follow your superiors like how you do at home. In Iron-Dragon Sect, you need to respect seniors and be friendly to your fellow apprentices sincerely. As Taixia Country was going to break out a large-scale war and the battle smokes of the holy war had been suffusing in the northwest border of Taixia Country, as human cultivators, you should shoulder the responsibilities voluntarily. The ultimate loyalty and righteousness is to kill demons and eliminates moles as soon as possible in order to protect your home and country. You should practice hardly in Iron-Dragon Sect and be ready to join in the war at any time so as to live up to what you’ve learned. Additionally, you should make military exploits in the chaotic world. You have to believe in karma. In the void, universal laws manifest in an extremely fantastic and mysterious way. If you want to promote to a knight and form chakras, you have to choose the bright way no matter what you’re pursuing for, wealth or position. Bear my words in mind.”

Zhang Tie encouraged these new disciples with a solemn look.

His words sounded genuine and plain as if they contained endlessly deep meaning. Not only the 1,000-odd disciples, even Lu Zhongming, Lin Huanxi and Zhang Tie’s disciples were shocked by his words.

“Yes, master!” The 1,000-odd disciples bowed towards Zhang Tie once again.

Zhang Tie let some of his favored disciples show around these new disciples in Xuantian Peak so that they could be familiar with the environment in Iron-Dragon Sect. Closely after that, Zhang Tie, Lu Zhongming, Lin Huanxi, Mountain Lifting Hermit and Bai Suxian entered the main hall to discuss issues.

The main hall of Iron-Dragon Sect was even more magnificent than that of the shrine palace of Huaiyuan Palace. The diameter of the huge sandalwood pillars in the main hall was about 4 m. The obsidian floor in the main hall reflected the shadows of these people.

After entering the main hall, Zhang Tie sat down in the main seat. All the other 4 people sat on Zhang Tie’s two sides respectively.

Just now, these knights still revealed a faint smile. The moment they entered the main hall, the atmosphere became solemn at once.

Before opening his mouth, Zhang Tie put his hand in his coat and pretended to fumble for a short while before taking out 2 finger rings and pushing them in front of Lu Zhongming and Lin Huanxi.

As black iron knights, Lu Zhongming and Lin Huanxi immediately identified that they were precious space-teleportation equipment at the sight of the nanobeads and bizarre runes.

Although having promoted to knights for so many years, Lu Zhongming and Lin Huanxi had not received any precious space-teleportation equipment yet.

The couple then exchanged a glance with each other.

“Master, these…” Lu Zhongming asked hesitantly.

“These are for elders of Iron-Dragon Sect. From now on, the two space-teleportation finger rings belong to you. As elders of Iron-Dragon Sect, you could have 6 earth-element crystals per month. Additionally, Iron-Dragon Sect would allocate 2 million gold coins to Immortalspring Peak each year. The amount of money would be dominated by you two…”

Black iron knights could have 6 earth-element crystals per month as same as the treatment in Lion Fortress. It was a rich treatment for any black iron knight. Additionally, 2 million gold coins a year was also a big amount of money. Actually, when in Guzhou Province, Minling Swordsmanship Sect had never made so much money a year.

Lu Zhongming and Lin Huanxi were shocked so much by Zhang Tie’s generosity…
