Chapter 1645: Questions

Translator: WQL Editor: Aleem

Watching those peaks in the sky, Zhang Tie was shocked greatly. He almost thought he was dizzy. However, after taking a look at it carefully, he found it was real. Those mountains were indeed floating in the sky, large and small. Small ones covered over 60,000 square meters while bigger ones were as large as cities.

Undoubtedly, it was a strange world.

'But why there're also Hua people and demons? Why the outfit of that person is so weird? Where am I…' Many questions poured into Zhang Tie's mind like a tide.

After taking a look at the surroundings, Zhang Tie disguised to be in a coma for the time being as he felt those people wouldn't do harm to him. He then allowed the person to take him into the airboat.

It was indeed an airboat despite it was different than those in Taixia Country in the pattern. Zhang Tie knew it was an airboat even if he closed his eyes.

Zhang Tie felt that person touching the artery in his neck. Then, he opened his mouth, "Boss, he's still alive…"

"A'zhi, check him in case he's a disguised demon. If this person is found to be a disguised demon in Heavenly Square City, we would have big trouble!" a muffled voice sounded.

After that, Zhang Tie heard blades coming out of sheaths as if someone was in alert. As long as he was found to be a disguised demon, they would poke him using those weapons in a split second.

"Yes, sir!" Another strange voice sounded. Closely after that, Zhang Tie felt someone squatting in front of him. Then, his right hand was taken as the stranger tried to pierce his fingertip using something sharp.

Pitifully, even if Zhang Tie didn't use his protective battle qi, he still had an amazing defensive capability. His skin, despite being soft, had such a terrifying, defensive capability that it couldn't even be pierced.

"Aah, boss, his finger skin couldn't be pierced by the demon detection needle. This person has a powerful defensive capability. He might be an immortal general…" the one on Zhang Tie's side exclaimed after trying twice on Zhang Tie's finger.

His exclamation aroused chaos among the crew as if the term immortal general carried great power.

"Let me try. Give me the demon detection needle…" the same muffled voice sounded. Closely after that, Zhang Tie's right hand fell in the hand of another person. Feeling a bit cold, Zhang Tie realized a fine needle being pierced in his finger with the help of battle qi. Then, he extruded a drop of blood out of Zhang Tie's finger.

"He's not a disguised demon, but a human…" the muffled voice sounded as all the others heaved a sigh. At the same time, they put their blades back in sheaths.

"Boss, is he an immortal general?" someone asked him out of curiosity.

"He's indeed an immortal general. However, he's still in a coma due to heavy wounds. A'Wu, A'Long, take him to the medical room and help him recover in the recovery pool. Let me known when he wakes up…"

"Aah, boss, must we use the recovery pool? There are few recovery liquids inside…"

"Shut up. Quick. We could replenish the recovery liquid in Heavenly Square City!"

"Okay, okay…"

Two people answered as Zhang Tie felt being carried away by them. After a few seconds' walk, they came to a room. Zhang Tie felt his broken clothes being cut off by scissors. Then, he felt being carried into a container in naked while his neck was held by something soft. After that, the liquid slowly flowed into the container. In the blink of an eye, his body under neck was immersed in a liquid as warm as one's body temperature, which felt pretty comfortable.

"Wow, he has so many wounds…" a person exclaimed in a low tone.

"Haven't you heard that? He's an immortal general. These wounds might be caused by demons. Immortal generals could always live long. As long as they were not beheaded or cut into halves, they would not die, despite heavy wounds…"

��He's too young. Less than 20; younger than me…"

"Needless to say. If you could enter the temple and cultivate for dozens of years inside, you would also remain young…"

"Let's go. We could come back and check whether he's awake after a while. It's good for our boss to save an immortal general! He might help us a lot in the future!"

As the footsteps left, the door was closed from outside. Feeling a sense of warmth entering his body for a while, Zhang Tie opened his eyes and started to look at the surroundings.

It was a clean, buffy room. There were two one-meter higher tables inside, which looked like operating tables. Besides, there were some odd-looking small tools like surgical knives in some cabinets. One cabinet contained a lot of vials and jars where faint herbal fragrance came from. Zhang Tie was lying in a shell-shaped crystal bathtub, being filled with pale green water-like liquid. Some bizarre runes were giving out pale light, which slightly flew and loomed in the bathtub.

Being driven by those bizarre runes, comfortable energy was peeping into his body from pores all over in the pale green liquid. Meanwhile, those wounds were recovering at a very high speed as a great strength was returning.

'Disguised demon? Immortal general? Temple?'

'Is disguised demon shadow knight, immortal general knight, temple tower of time?' Zhang Tie thought.

Watching those bizarre runes flowing in the huge bathtub which could cure him effectively, Zhang Tie became more and more interested in this place. 'Many things here are strange.'

Although the huge bathtub could help him recover fast, it was still a bit inferior to senior recovery medicament. Given the unknown current situation, the faster he recovered, the safer and more confident he would be. Therefore, Zhang Tie ran his spiritual energy and prepared to take out a vial of senior all-purpose medicament from Castle of Black Iron.

However, he became stunned after trying it a few times.

He couldn't use Castle of Black Iron…

'What happened?'

Chapter 1646: Couldn't Go Back

Translator: WQL Editor: Aleem

Castle of Black Iron was Zhang Tie's most powerful trump card and reliance. As long as he could use Castle of Black Iron, he would tide over difficulties one after another. However, when Zhang Tie wanted to use Castle of Black Iron in this strange place, he found that he couldn't. Therefore, he became a bit flurried at a stroke.

"Heller, heller, could you hear me?" Zhang Tie hurriedly called Heller. Based on his experience, even if Castle of Black Iron didn't work, he could still contact Heller. As long as the marvelous arch door of Castle of Black Iron was in his mind sea, he would be able to contact Heller.

"I'm here, Castle Lord. Congratulations, Castle Lord, you've survived the combat…"

Heller's voice was as calm as before. Despite being a bit emotional, Heller's words finally made Zhang Tie a bit calm.

"What happened? Why couldn't I use items in Castle of Black Iron? The space-teleportation function of Castle of Black Iron becomes ineffective!"

"Castle Lord, do you remember your experience in the tower of time? In the tower of time, as long as it starts, Castle Lord would not be able to use Castle of Black Iron!"

"Aah, what? You mean I'm in a tower of time?"

"You're not in a tower of time. However, the use of Castle of Black Iron is restricted to the irresistible strength in the twisted time-space structure of this world." Heller said calmly.

"How could be that?"

"Castle Lord, do you remember how you felt when you entered this world?"

Zhang Tie recalled it carefully as he replied, "I might be sucked in. The moment my virtual image of king rock entered the entrance of this weird space, it had been sucked in an irresistible manner together with me!"

"It is the bizarre strength of the twisted time-space structure of this world. Castle Lord, if you take this world as a huge balloon and Castle of Black Iron a smaller one, what would happen if the smaller one was put in the huge balloon or being connected to the larger one by a pipe?"

"If the smaller balloon was put in the bigger one, it would sustain great stress. If the smaller one was connected with the bigger one, it would shrink and shriveled in the end!"

"What space-teleportation items such as Castle of Black Iron is to this space is similar to what the smaller balloon is to the bigger one. Therefore, Castle of Black Iron is not available."

"Is the space-teleportation as same as the others?"

"Yes!"

"But why?"

"Precisely, this is not a complete world; nor a parallel universe. Given the strength of its time-space structure, it's more like an artificial world. However, it is destroyed to a certain degree and becomes volatile!"

After hearing Heller's words, Zhang Tie's heart raced as he almost exclaimed, "An artificial world? Impossible?"

"Castle Lord, have you forgotten that Castle of Black Iron would be as same as this world as time flies…"

"You mean, I could not use Castle of Black Iron forever in this world?"

"Not absolutely. Strength is always presented periodically like how grasses and woods wither and revive, the sun rises and falls, the moons wax and wane. The strength of the time-space structure in this world should be periodical too. On some junctures, Castle of Black Iron is still available!"

Heller finally revealed a "good news" which could make Zhang Tie a bit relaxed. However, closely after that, Zhang Tie recalled something as his face suddenly changed. When he had not recovered his strength, Zhang Tie was thinking about recovering his strength as soon as possible; however, Heller's words reminded Zhang Tie of a more serious problem. Unlike Castle of Black Iron, he couldn't access this world whenever he liked. Additionally, as this world was isolated from the former world where he was, how could Zhang Tie return to the former world?

"Could I go back?" Zhang Tie swallowed his saliva and asked Heller hardly after being shocked for a short while.

Heller was in silence for a while too, which brought Zhang Tie an inauspicious premonition.

After quite a while, Heller's voice reappeared in Zhang Tie's mind sea.

"Castle Lord, I couldn't answer you. Because I couldn't foresee the future; nor help you from outside. I could only tell you that the strength of this time-space structure is shrinking. It's similar to a swirl in the abyss under the ocean, Castle Lord must have a deep feeling about it. As long as you're sucked into such a swirl, you could barely come out unless your strength is greater than the suction or the swirl disappears…"

Zhang Tie was dumbfounded. After that, he hurriedly asked Heller, "Above Yinhai, I felt a wave caused by broken space-teleportation equipment beside Heavenly Hunyuan. It was like a powder keg being detonated by a sparkle, which instantly created a hole and entrance in the surroundings. If I return to the place where I appear at the beach and break some space-teleportation equipment over there, could I find the entrance and the route back?"

"No, the reason is what I've mentioned. Because the strength of this time-space structure is shrinking, even if Castle Lord could find the entrance where you come to this world, you couldn't go back along the same route. You should know that the entrance to space appears and disappears at any time. Even though the entrance doesn't disappear, it's just unidirectional…"

Zhang Tie was petrified. Although Heller left some hope to him in his words, Zhang Tie realized that he could barely return to Taixia Country and the familiar world.

When he remembered his parents, his wives and kids and those familiar and intimate faces that he might not see any longer, Zhang Tie dropped tears at once…

After a while, the door was pushed open as a surprised voice sounded, "Aah, you're awake…"

Chapter 1647: Motian Realm (I)

Translator: WQL Editor: Aleem

Three days later, Airboat Flowingcloud reached the harbor of Heavenly Square City. Airboats were rising and falling there, making it pretty boisterous. Such a great number of airboats could only be matched by those in Xuanyuan Hill.

Right in the boisterous airport, after Flowingcloud landed, Zhang Tie bade farewell to the crew.

"There's an immortal palace in Heavenly Square City. As long as Brother Zhang clarified your identity of immortal general, they would find the best doctor they could to cure your brain disease for real…" Captain Shi told Zhang Tie passionately as he held Zhang Tie's hand, "Take it. Despite being not too much, I think Brother Zhang need money for the sake of convenience!"

At the same time, Captain Shi foisted a little purse of crystal coins into Zhang Tie's hand.

"Fine, thanks, Captain Shi!" Zhang Tie accepted it as he looked at A'Wu, A'Long and the other crew, asking, "Have you borne in mind the gaits that I've taught you?"

The crew nodded forcefully as they watched Zhang Tie and didn't feel like leaving him.

"Undertaking would improve due to diligence and go bad due to laziness. Great…great, Brother Zhang's maxim is too profound and enlightening. I would take it as my motto…" Captain Shi pondered Zhang Tie's words as he praised, "These days, I've learned a lot from Brother Zhang's golden lines…"

Zhang Tie became stunned for a second; then he realized that nobody else in this world should have talked about the proverb which was popular across Taixia Country. As he had been used to say it, Zhang Tie's casual words would cause the others to consider it for a while. Therefore, Zhang Tie felt ashamed inside…

"Captain Shi, you're too polite…"

"Two days later, it would be the first day of the lunar month. By then, Heavenly Square City would be converged with traders. Our airboat would stay a couple of more days in Heavenly Square City until we complete the trade. If Brother Zhang has any needs, let us know!"

Zhang Tie nodded silently as he got off the airboat under the gaze of the public. When he was about to leave the harbor of Heavenly Square City, Zhang Tie turned around as he found that the crew was still watching him and waving their hands towards him. Zhang Tie waved his hands towards them too.

"Alas, he's leaving too fast. If he could stay with us a few more days, we would definitely learn a lot…" A'Wu and A'Long felt pitiful as they saw Zhang Tie leaving them. A'Long turned around and watched Captain Shi, "Captain, we're in such a chaotic age, aren't we recruiting immortal generals? Why not keep him. If Captain could take back an immortal general, the old man would be very happy for real…"

Watching Zhang Tie disappearing, Captain Shi also let out a sigh, saying, "Brother Zhang Tie has a greater ambition; he doesn't mean to be recruited by us…"

"Captain, how do you know that? He didn't say it…"

"Some things don't have to be clarified verbally. Given the fact that Brother Zhang Tie taught us Vigorous Grass Gaits, it indicates that he doesn't want to owe anything to us at all. Additionally, Brother Zhang's brain disease has not been cured. He couldn't even remember his bygones. I'm afraid that immortal generals like Brother Zhang Tie have a good background. It's not proper for us to propose to recruit him. Even if we couldn't recruit him, it's not bad for us to make friends with him!" Captain Shi explained as he turned around and looked at the others seriously, "I've not heard about Vigorous Grass Gaits. I couldn't figure out its essence. These days, you'd better record it in the paper. Don't tell others about it for the time being. When we got back home, show it to the old man. Given his vision, the old man should figure out its essence!"

…

It was a prosperous avenue outside the harbor of Heavenly Square City. After leaving airboat for a short while, Zhang Tie had come to the busy avenue.

All the people on the avenue were in black hair and eyeballs. Given their looks and language, Zhang Tie knew they were all Hua people. Furthermore, there were huge lizard-like mounts as long as 7-8 m with two horns on their heads on the avenue. Many people were riding them and wandering in the avenue leisurely. Some lizards even carried many items, large or small.

A snow-white mountain was floating in the sky nearby. The melting snow cascaded from thousands of meters high in the form of waterfall or silver line. It reminded Zhang Tie of the vivid lines——Cascading from thousands of meters high, it's like the Milk Way falling down from the heavens. Under the snow mountain and the waterfall, it was suffused with vapor while a rainbow crossed over the sky. What dreamland!

Many fighters in metal wings were patrolling in the sky. Someone in metal wings was heading for his destination from hundreds of meters high in a pretty dreamlike way.

Even though Zhang Tie had been in this world for a few days, he was still shocked by the scene in Heavenly Square City for quite a while.

During the past three days in the airboat, Zhang Tie lied that he couldn't remember anything due to a headache. As a result, he started to acknowledge this world from the crew.

Zhang Tie had not imagined that he could be in such a world.

He learned that this world was called Motian Realm.

Everything in Motian Realm appeared being similar to the former world which Zhang Tie was familiar with. However, everything seemed strange.

First, this was a battle force-dominated world. Punch always meant the right to say.

According to Captain Shi, immortal generals were knights. Similarly, immortal generals shared the same high positions in this world like knights in another. Besides, they could also have power, wealth and beauties.

Like how knights were divided into levels by chakras, immortal generals were also divided by chakras. They were respectively fierce immortal general, earth immortal general, water immortal general, wind immortal general, fire immortal general and supreme immortal general, which corresponded to black iron knight, earth knight, shadow knight, heavenly knight, semi-sage knight and sage-level knight.

Of course, what shocked Zhang Tie more was immortal emperor, a higher level above immortal general in this world…

Chapter 1648: Motian Realm (II)

Translator: WQL Editor: Aleem

According to what Zhang Tie had been told in the airboat these days, undoubtedly, immortal emperor above supreme immortal general was the most powerful existence in this world.

Captain Shi couldn't interpret how powerful was immortal emperor. However, there was one affirmative point that immortal emperor was indeed a cultivator above sage-level knight or supreme immortal general in this world.

Because of this new discovery, Zhang Tie had been spirited for a few days.

In the former world, sage-level knights were already the highest class in cultivation base; unimaginably, in this bizarre Motian Realm, Zhang Tie knew a higher-level cultivator above sage-level knight. Therefore, he became spirited again like a wild wolf who had found its prey. At this moment, Zhang Tie had made a decision to promote to an immortal emperor.

If he wanted to return to Taixia Country and meet his beloved ones, instead of dying in this world full of regret and unwillingness like a prisoner being exiled or in a cell, Zhang Tie had to promote to an immortal emperor so as to be the most powerful one.

Although he might not go back after promoting to an immortal emperor, undoubtedly, facing the same dilemma and problem, the more powerful he was, the more possible it would be for him tackle them.

Suppose he had 1/100 possibility to go back to Taixia Country based on his current situation, if he could raise the possibility to 2/100 after becoming an immortal emperor, Zhang Tie would exert his full efforts for this trivial hope.

Motian Realm was not peaceful either. Conversely, this world was also filled with wars and killings, which was far greater than that in the former world.

In this world, humans fought demons too. The war between humans and demons had been lasting for millions of years incessantly too, even longer. According to Captain Shi, since the birth of Motian Realm, humans and demons had been fighting each other. As for the origin of Motian Realm, Captain Shi didn't know it either. As it was too far away, it gradually evolved into bizarre myths and legends.

Besides immortal (human) general and demon general, fighters between LV 10 and LV 15 were called immortal human soldiers and demon soldiers.

Besides the incessant war between humans and demons, it was also very chaotic inside the human world. It was common to see fights between immortal generals and between human forces. The major reason for the battles between immortal generals was for merging and plundering population. So was it between humans and demons.

Yes, in this world, population counted most as the most precious resource. Humans and demons were both scrambling for merging and plundering the opposite population.

When Zhang Tie heard this on the airboat, he was shocked too much. In his opinion, demons just wanted to wipe out all the humans. However, in Motian Realm, demons were for plundering human population.

Not knowing whether it was because of the rich aura or something else in Motian Realm, all the newborns here had already lit their shrine surging point and all the surging points on their spines. In other words, all the people in Motian Realm came to this world as LV 9 fighters, which indicated their strong physical strength. Of course, they didn't feel they were strong; because all of them were born to be the same. Only when they started to cultivate did they admit that they were growing stronger.

In the mother nature, the stronger the individuals were, the fewer they would be and the stricter conditions they would face in reproduction. Conversely, the weaker the individuals were, the more they would be and the simpler conditions they would face in reproduction. The universal law was always fair even in Motian Realm.

In Motian Realm, people were born to be strong. Even commoners could live longer than 120 years. Whereas, it was not easy for people to deliver babies here. In this world, a couple or a woman could only deliver twice in their whole lives. Few people could only deliver once or thrice at most. However, people would die in war; therefore, the population in Motian Realm couldn't realize a sharp increase. In this world, a city with over 1 million people could be called a medium-sized city; by contrast, in Taixia Country, medium-sized cities always contained more than 10 million people; metro cities always contained over 100 million people.

The population was a rare resource in Motian Realm; therefore immortal generals were major participants of battles in this world.

Immortal soldiers and commoners below immortal generals were barely involved in battles. The results of battles between immortal generals and demon generals determined everything. Immortal soldiers and demon soldiers were just lackeys of immortal generals and demon generals. When immortal generals won, immortal soldiers won; when immortal general failed, immortal soldiers failed. Immortal soldiers or demon soldiers were mainly responsible for doing something that immortal generals or demon generals didn't feel convenient to do such as plundering population and occupying territory.

However, Zhang Tie didn't understand why so many knights or immortal generals in this world were fighting only for plundering population even if the population was a rare resource in this world.

The answer to this question startled Zhang Tie a lot.

Immortal generals plundered population for exchanging them with element crystals or secret methods in immortal palaces. In Motian Realm, all the element crystals were monopolized by immortal palaces. If immortal generals didn't want to capture those element crystals in the Elements Realm slowly, they had to exchange for element crystals in immortal palaces. Some clans or forces would also exchange population for secret methods and classics in immortal palaces so as to enhance their positions in the society.

In this world, there were an astonishing amount of secret classics and methods.

Take the simplest example, in Taixia Country, only imperial households could master the skill to manufacture airboat using air-floating gold; however, in Motian Realm, people could exchange population for this skill in immortal palaces. A clan or immortal general could exchange 500,000 people for the skill of extracting air-floating gold and making airboat using air-floating gold.

Whereas, in this world, all the immortal palaces were founded by supreme immortal generals. Not knowing why, each fire immortal general would start to establish their own immortal palace and belief soon after promoting to a supreme immortal general. By contrast, those population being exchanged with element crystals or resources became the immortal assistants and followers of the immortal palaces…

Zhang Tie gloomily felt it was something special behind the immortal palaces and believes of supreme immortal generals in this world.

Chapter 1649: Applying for Immortal Generals

Translator: WQL Editor: Aleem

To be honest, although being righteous, Zhang Tie would not rush forward the moment he heard that demons existed in this world. Perhaps Zhang Tie's feelings had changed. After coming to this world and hearing about demons from the crew on the airboat, Zhang Tie had been less sensitive to demons in this world. Although he still disliked demons, he was not as passionate and responsible as that when he fought demons at the bank of Weishui River in Taixia Country.

There were sage-level knights in this world, each of whom had founded their immortal palace. Additionally, there were greater existences above sage-level knights. Therefore, it was not Zhang Tie's turn to show off his battle strength in front of demons.

It appeared that Motian Realm was closely related to the world where he came from. However, Zhang Tie couldn't figure out the details. Even so, as Zhang Tie was not here for archaeology or doing papers, he just dropped it which only nerds would care about, despite being curious. As for Zhang Tie, there were too many secrets and unknowns in this world. Even if he didn't know, he would not lose hair. No need to waste time on these things which were far-fetched from his life.

After leaving the harbor of Heavenly Square City, Zhang Tie hung out in the city as he started to observe this strange and fresh place. At the same time, he was pondering how to settle down in this new world, grow powerful step by step and finally go back to the world where he came from.

Based on Zhang Tie's wisdom and life experience, Zhang Tie reached a conclusion——As an outsider, the most convenient, steadiest and most realistic way for him to settle down in this new world was to join an organization.

The organization was a platform and the center for collecting and disseminating information and resources. Based on this organization, he could adapt to this world as fast as possible and seize the opportunities for growing stronger constantly. It would be too silly if he just took actions alone in this world without any reliance. All the rural migrants who came to a strange city for dreams would find a job first for further development whether the job was good or not. This law also worked for Zhang Tie.

As Zhang Tie was thinking about it, he found that he had arrived in front of a huge building while there were much fewer people nearby.

It was an immortal palace being similar to Maya Pyramids in the world where he came from. The entire immortal palace was lofty. Looking up, Zhang Tie saw grey stone stairs all the way to the top of the building. Although being plain, the grey stone stairs had lost their luster. It seemed that they had been old. The entrance of the immortal palace was right on its top.

When Zhang Tie came here, he saw two black iron knights, actually two fierce immortal generals landing not far from him in an advanced outfit, arousing a wind and blowing dust on the ground everywhere.

Not knowing why, across Motian Realm, only those above wind immortal generals namely heavenly knights could fly without aiding equipment. It was like the no-fly zone above Lion Fortress. If immortal generals below wind immortal general wanted to fly, they had to carry a uniform. Zhang Tie got this message on the airboat. Closely after he got this message, Zhang Tie had stealthily tried his flight capability of the divine dominator. After finding that his flight capability of divine dominator was not influenced, he became reassured.

"Aah, we've finally arrived. Hopefully, it's not too late…" a fierce immortal general let out a long sigh as he put away his metal outfit.

"Of course it's not late. It only took us less than 7 days to come here since we received the news. Dragon Emperor Immortal Palace in Heavenly Square City should still be recruiting immortal generals!" Another black iron knight said as he put away his metal wings. At the same time, he took a look at Zhang Tie. Due to Zhang Tie's young look and extremely calm qi, that person didn't look at Zhang Tie any longer.

"I've not imagined that Heavenly Square City also starts to recruit immortal generals. It's a city with a branch of an emperor-level immortal palace…" the first speaker sighed with mood.

"Dragon Emperor immortal palace is responsible for ruling over 1,000 cities. It contains over 10 billion people at its heyday. Dragon Emperor has been missing for over 900 years. As of now, demons were becoming more and more rampant. As a result, other immortal palaces couldn't wait anymore. A few days ago, the largest city Biyao City of Dragon Emperor immortal palace in Sunshooting Plains was collapsed and merged by Star Emperor immortal palace. It was said that a branch head of Dragon Emperor immortal palace was severely injured and some immortal generals were killed. After these days, the Dragon Emperor still didn't show up and condemn Star Emperor immortal palace. Of course, the other forces grew more and more audacious…"

"Why do you urge me to join the Dragon Emperor immortal palace then?"

"Dragon Emperor immortal palace is recruiting immortal generals with compensation of 10 element crystals per person monthly. Is there any job better than this one? If the Dragon Emperor is still there, we don't need to worry about that. If the Dragon Emperor is still missing, high-level powerhouses would be responsible for that even if heavens collapse. Perhaps, Dragon Emperor would split up by then…"

The two fierce immortal generals whispered as they walked upstairs towards the entrance. However, they didn't know that Zhang Tie had heard all of their words.

By staying with people from different industries, people could indeed receive various messages of different values. What the two fierce immortal generals talked about couldn't be heard on the airboat.

There was much valuable information in their talk. After hearing that, Zhang Tie considered it for a while. He then looked at the entrance on the top of the immortal palace as if he could feel the sorrow atmosphere over the immortal palace.

In this world, battles between humans and demons especially competitions between humans were many carried out between high-level battle forces, which appeared to have nothing to do with commoners. As for civilians at the bottom of the class, the competitions between high-level battle forces would only lead to the change of their ruler. Civilians would eat and pay taxes as usual; the only difference was that their idol in the immortal palace might change.

With a faint smile, Zhang Tie stepped on the stairs towards the entrance of the immortal palace.

Only after a short while, Zhang Tie had passed hundreds of stairs and arrived at the entrance of Dragon Emperor immortal palace.

"Stop!" Two tall, tough, serious guards in full outfit shouted as they blocked their spears in front of Zhang Tie, continuing, "What are you doing here? It's not the right moment for praying in the immortal palace!"

"Don't you need employees?"

"Dragon Emperor immortal palace don't need immortal soldiers!"

"I'm not applying for immortal soldier; instead, I'm here for immortal general!"

'Immortal general?' The two guards goggled at Zhang Tie's young face and extremely ordinary clothes with eyes wide open. Before they answered, Zhang Tie had released his protective battle qi and slightly rocked off their spears before entering the immortal palace frankly.

It was much more magnificent inside than outside. The moment Zhang Tie entered the immortal palace, he had seen a huge statue facing the gate in the distance——A man was stepping on an immortal dragon, long sword in hand, who looked pretty handsome and lofty.

It was pretty open from the statue all the way to the gate except for the rows of cattails being placed on the ground tidily.

At the sight of Zhang Tie, a decent and clean woman in white longuette standing at the gate became a bit stunned as she asked, "You're also applying for immortal general?"

Zhang Tie replied with a smile, "Sure!"

"Please follow me!" The woman in white longuette said. After taking another look at Zhang Tie out of curiosity, she led Zhang Tie into a corridor beside the main gate.

This woman was like a staff in the immortal palace being similar to nun. However, Zhang Tie didn't know the concrete identity of this woman in the immortal palace of Motian Realm. In case of trouble, Zhang Tie directly remained silent as he just followed that woman in the corridor for a while before coming to the door of a room.

"Please wait inside for a while. Our head would arrive soon. He would negotiate with you about the job!"

"Fine, thank you!"

The woman in white longuette then pushed open the door. When Zhang Tie entered the room, all the others in the room instantly fixated onto him.

Given the furnishings, this room should be a parlor. There were already eight people here, including the two fierce immortal generals that Zhang Tie met just now. Like the other six people, Zhang Tie took a look at them as he found there were 4 males and 2 females. One of the 4 males was an earth immortal general, namely an earth knight, who was sitting in a chair arrogantly and lonely. One of the two females was also an earth immortal general. The two women appeared coming here together as they were sitting together. As for the remaining males, one in long hair was sitting alone, eyes closed. The rest two males should be brothers given their looks.

At the sight of Zhang Tie, all the eight people were shocked, including the two fierce knights that Zhang Tie met outside just now.

Among all the 9 candidates, Zhang Tie was the youngest. Given his look, he was just 17 years old. Additionally, he was wearing the ordinary clothes of A'Long whom he got acquainted in the airboat.

Chapter 1650: In the Immortal Palace

Translator: WQL Editor: Aleem

Except for the lonely man who was meditating, eyes closed, all the others at present were shocked by Zhang Tie's young look with a myriad of facial expressions.

The two fierce immortal generals whom Zhang Tie had met outside just now exchanged a glance with each other. One of them then smacked silently. The arrogant earth immortal general squinted his eyes towards Zhang Tie. The two brothers just stared at Zhang Tie for a short while out of shock. The two women's responses were a bit funny: the female earth immortal general just threw a glance at Zhang Tie calmly before neglecting him; the other revealed a big smile and ogled at Zhang Tie; besides, she waved her hand towards Zhang Tie, saying, "Little young brother, come here and sit beside your sister!"

The female who greeted Zhang Tie was in soft blue outfit. She was hot especially featured by her straight nose, big and watery eyes. The woman beside her was an earth immortal general in green longuette. With an oval face, slim eyebrows, she looked pretty beautiful despite being much more distant than the first one.

After the female in blue soft outfit finished her words, the female earth immortal general beside her had glared at her in a helpless way.

Zhang Tie wondered whether females on the way here were all decent and beautiful due to the plentiful aura in this space.

Despite having such a good opportunity to get along with such beauty, Zhang Tie was neither shocked nor surprised; instead, he just revealed a frank smile, replying, "Ha, thank you, sister!" After saying that, Zhang Tie came over there and sat down closely beside that female in blue soft outfit decently.

The two females were sitting in the middle of the same soft bench, which was not broad enough. After sitting down, Zhang Tie's thigh almost touched that female's thigh with less than one punch's distance in between.

The others didn't make any response to that, except the two brothers who forcefully swallowed their saliva as they couldn't hide their admiration for Zhang Tie.

At this moment, Zhang Tie smelt the fragrance of orchid from the female earth immortal general and the strong fragrance of rose blossom from the female in soft blue outfit. Sitting next to such beauties, Zhang Tie really felt much better than smelling the stinky sweat of those men in the airboat.

"Young brother, you've already been an immortal general at such a young age, you must come from a big clan…"

The moment Zhang Tie sat down, the female beside him had started the talk passionately.

Just now, this female called Zhang Tie little young brother. The moment Zhang Tie sat down, she had changed the appellation by removing the word little, which sounded a bit more intimate. Hearing that, the female beside her slightly frowned as she directly turned around as if she didn't care about their talk at all.

"I cannot remember where do I come from…"

"Aah? But why…" the younger female exclaimed with an exaggerated look.

"I've been injured. After waking up, I've forgotten many things!"

Now that Zhang Tie could fabricate a lie in the airboat, he didn't mind continuing the lie. No matter what, he felt this reason worked. He didn't want to explain too much about that in case of trouble. Due to the plentiful aura in Motian Realm, despite being much less than that in Taixia Country in total population, the number of immortal generals here might not be less than knights in Taixia Country. So many immortal generals here were traveling around and looking for opportunities. Therefore, it was not a big deal for a fresh immortal general who had forgotten about his bygones to appear in a place. After all, it was much better than being caught and made into experimental slices after revealing his real identity as an alien.

"Young brother, how did you come to Heavenly Square City then?"

"I was saved by the crew of an airboat passing by when I passed out a few days ago. Therefore, I picked up their vehicle and came here!"

"That's good. That's good!" the female said as she patted her plump breast as if she was afraid that Zhang Tie could not see that, asking, "Young brother, what's your name?"

"I'm Zhang Tie. Sister, may I know your fragrant name…"

"Fragrant name…" the female in blue repeated the term as she tasted it for a while with a serious look.

Watching her expression, Zhang Tie realized that nobody else in this world might have asked a female's name in such an elegant way. Despite being succinct, this phrase contained a Hua culture which had been lasting for thousands of years in another world. Many ancient men of letters might have racked their mind to work out such a great phrase. When asking a female's name, they realized their compliment, making the listener happy instead of feeling disgusting. Only Hua people's words could be so charming and fantastic.

According to the custom of Hebrew language, it would be——sister, may I know your name which is as fragrant as flowers…if so, it would sound a bit vulgar and evident. In Motian Realm, where humans and demons had fought tens of thousands of years, a man of letters might be like rarities. At least in the airboat, when Zhang Tie talked about poets with Captain Shi, the entire crew had responded with confused looks as if they didn't know the profession of the poet at all.

"Is poem a kind of sharp immortal general?" A'Long asked Zhang Tie seriously. Zhang Tie thought A'Long was kidding. Later on, he realized that there was no such a profession of the poet in this world at all. Perhaps nobody in this world had once written a poem. People in this world might have not imagined that it could become a lofty profession or popular for a period of time by writing poems. In this world dominated by battle force, Everything's value was related to strength.

After hearing the phrase fragrant name, even the female earth immortal general who had looked aside couldn't stand looking back at Zhang Tie again as if she was shocked by Zhang Tie's eloquence too. The two words really sounded warm-hearted.

It might be the first time for the female beside Zhang Tie to hear this phrase. After tasting it for half a minute, she suddenly revealed a brilliant smile, praising, "Young brother, you're really talkative. Your words sound really comfortable. Bear it in mind, this sister's name is Ji Yuelan. I would not always tell my name to a man easily."

"Oh, I couldn't bear such high praise!" Zhang Tie sighed as he looked up.

"Why?"

"Because the last girl who said it to me always urged to marry me!"

"Really?" Ji Yuelan patted Zhang Tie's shoulder as her face flushed. Closely after that, the punch's distance between them disappeared.

The two brothers just gazed at Zhang Tie like watching a deity.

All the others in the room became silent as Zhang Tie and Ji Yuelan were talking freely. Ji Yuelan even burst into laughter every once a while…

…

In another room of the immortal palace, an old man with some deep frowns on his forehead in black long robe which was embroidered with dragon patterns and a female immortal general in the fiery outfit and short hair were standing in front of a water basin where bizarre runes were flowing in water.

Light flashed across the water basins as everything in the room where the eight candidates were in appeared in the water basin clearly like images in a mirror. The water slightly rocked as sounds in the room could be clearly heard too.

Zhang Tie's image appeared in the water basin. The old man and the female immortal general were gazing at Zhang Tie at the same time with different looks. The old man grew more and more serious while the female immortal general abhorred Zhang Tie evidently.

"Go check which airboat he had come from and whether he was saved by the crew or not…"

The female immortal general then watched the old man, saying, "Head, this man…"

"Go check, I could handle with it…"

"Yes, sir…"

The female immortal general threw a deep glance at Zhang Tie before disappearing in a split second…

Chapter 1651: Zhang Tie's Questions

Translator: WQL Editor: Aleem

For almost three hours, when the others became impatient, Zhang Tie and Ji Yuelan were engrossed in conversation. In the beginning, they chatted in normal tones. Later on, they chatted secretly using their battle qis.

The others at present didn't know what they were talking about; however, Ji Yuelan's laughter every once a while made her eye-catching.

During the past three hours, when Zhang Tie entered here for over 1 hour, another tall and tough earth immortal general had arrived. Plus Zhang Tie, there were 10 immortal generals in the room in total.

Being different than other women that Zhang Tie had ever known, Ji Yuelan had a very special feature, namely being interested in chatting. She was very talkative. As long as she started a talk, her petite mouth would keep chattering like a machine gun for a few hours without repetition. Additionally, she would become more and more excited through talking. As a result, she would feel thirsty and breathless as her eyes turned watery and her face flushed.

When he found those people in the room were watching him with awe-stricken even despised eyes, Zhang Tie pledged that he was not flirting with Ji Yuelan. Actually, not like other women, this female immortal general would make herself extremely thrilled only by chattering at her will as if Zhang Tie was flirting with her.

Zhang Tie had heard about such a kind of self-pleasing woman before. Unimaginably, he could meet one in Motian Realm. It was like having a pillow when he felt like going to bed.

Over 3 hours might only mean a nap or short time sit-up for others; however, Zhang Tie learned a lot from Ji Yuelan about immortal palace during this period of time and fixed his shortage about the information of immortal palace. Additionally, he knew the Motian Realm better. No matter what, the knowledge and experience of an immortal general about this world; especially about the class of immortal general could never be matched by commoners.

As was beforementioned, in Motian Realm, as long as one promoted to a supreme immortal general, he or she would be qualified to found an immortal palace. The immortal palaces founded by supreme immortal generals were easily identified. Generally, each immortal palace would be distinctive due to its name; as long as there was no word "emperor" in the name of an immortal palace, the immortal palace must be founded by a supreme immortal general or a sage-level knight.

Immortal palaces like Dragon Emperor Immortal Palace was founded by an immortal emperor, the top power in Motian Realm. The widely accepted name of the top power was Dragon Emperor.

Before Dragon Emperor Immortal Palace was founded, the person was just a supreme immortal general called Ying Canglong instead of Dragon Emperor. In the beginning, Dragon Emperor Immortal Palace was called Canglong Immortal Palace. About 1,200 years ago, Ying Canglong promoted to an immortal emperor and shocked the entire Motian Realm. As a result, Cang Long Immortal Palace was renamed as Dragon Emperor Immortal Palace.

Among humans in Motian Realm, there were three emperor-level immortal palaces, namely three top forces, respectively Dragon Emperor Immortal Palace, Star Emperor Immortal Palace and Force Emperor Immortal Palace.

Star Emperor Immortal Palace and Force Emperor Immortal Palace were the most time-honored immortal palaces in Motian Realm with the greatest influences. Previously, Dragon Emperor Immortal Palace was also prosperous; however, since Dragon Emperor gradually didn't show up in the public 900 years ago, Dragon Emperor Immortal Palace had been declining. As of now, Dragon Emperor Immortal Palace had become fat prey in the eyes of other forces.

Emperor-level immortal palaces had very great influence. Although Motian Realm was not divided by countries, an emperor-level immortal palace was almost like a top country in population, number of cities, influence and battle force. To a certain degree, the immortal palace was a combination of sect and country. One immortal palace was as powerful as a country in the world where Zhang Tie came from. Those who could found immoral palaces deserved to be the idols of all the others and worshipped by hundreds of millions of people.

In Motian Realm, besides being power center, the immortal palace was also similar to trade unison of knights which could only be accessible to immortal generals, staff inside immortal palaces or some major figures within the territory of immortal palaces. Commoners could only enter the immortal halls in cities, which were affiliated to immortal palaces. Immortal palaces were divided into different scales and classes. In this world, immortal palaces were as hierarchical as troops.

Being similar to those clans in Taixia Country, all the clans in this world aimed to found their own immortal palaces one day.

In this world, immortal palaces were scrambling for the population. As a result, the relationships between immortal palaces and between immortal palaces and those clans which had not found their immortal palaces were very complex. Some clans would join immortal palaces voluntarily and give concession to immortal palaces; they would develop their own strength with the protection of immortal palaces; hopefully, one of their clan members could promote to a supreme immortal general one day and found their own immortal palace. Some clans would cooperate with each other and form a regional alliance so as to compete with immortal palaces.

It was very difficult to found an immortal palace. Additionally, immortal palaces would collapse at any time. The main reason for the collapse of immortal palaces was the death of its core figures such as a supreme immortal general or an immortal emperor…

When Zhang Tie was told that even an immortal emperor would die, he was startled again. In Zhang Tie's opinion, even sage-level knights in the world where he came from could barely die unless they didn't feel like living any longer. In Yun Zhongzi's words, a sage-level knight could at least escape successfully if he couldn't defeat his enemy. How could immortal emperors in Motian Realm be killed? That was unimaginable…

Zhang Tie finally couldn't stand asking Ji Yuelan secretly using his battle qi. "Wait…Sister Lan, how could immortal emperor die? As the most powerful ones in Motian Realm, how could they die…"

"Young brother, it appears that you could remember nothing for real; otherwise, how could you not know the death of rune emperor 300 years ago…" Ji Yuelan rolled her eyes to Zhang Tie. As for Ji Yuelan, besides the fact that Zhang Tie had forgotten about everything, his surprising look and serious expression was too cute. Therefore, she felt that this rare young man was very interesting. "300 years ago, there were four emperor-level immortal palaces among humans. Rune Emperor was also unrivaled in Motian Realm. Pitifully, Rune Emperor was always conceited. When he was in the dark valley, he was trapped by Tricky Demon Emperor and mired in the deity-killing formation of over 10,000 demon generals. Finally, although he killed thousands of demon generals, he was also shattered. In the few days after his death, the Rune Emperor Immortal Palace had perished and been divided by the other three immortal palaces. Of course, it was just an accident. Besides, in every 360 years, when the Mountain Ruins open, all the top humans and demons who were qualified to found immortal palaces would fight to death in the Mountain Ruins. Over tens of thousands of years, many immortal emperors and demon emperors had perished in the Mountain Ruins…"

'A formation of over 10,000 demon generals could kill an immortal emperor who's higher than a sage-level knight?'

Zhang Tie didn't believe in it. Given his experience in fighting demons in Earth-elements Realm and at the bank of Weishui River, even a formation of 100,000 demon knights could barely trap a sage-level knight, not to mention an immortal emperor. This message challenged Zhang Tie's common sense. In the world where he came from, the biggest role of the formation of knights was to deter and resist the opposite formation of knights. Such a formation could always shatter low-level knights; however, its role was very limited for powers above heavenly knight. At least Zhang Tie had not heard that any heavenly knight was killed by the opposite formation of knights in the three holy wars. How could a formation of immortal generals in Motian Realm easily kill an immortal emperor?

'Is the formation of immortal generals in Motian Realm different than the formation of knights in Taixia Country? As long as the formation is large enough, it would be able to kill an immortal emperor? And what's the Mountain Ruins? How could it attract sage-level knights and immortal emperors to fight each other in every hundred years?'

Ji Yuelan's introduction aroused more questions in Zhang Tie's mind. The moment Zhang Tie wanted Ji Yuelan to continue her introduction, the door had been open. They finally saw the owner of this place after waiting for three hours.

It was an old man in black long robe with dragon pattern and a woman in fiery outfit.

Only after throwing a glance at them, Zhang Tie had known that the old man was a shadow knight while that woman was an earth knight. Of course, according to the standard of Motian Realm, the old man was a water immortal general while the woman was an earth immortal general.

Watching them coming in, all the 10 people stood up and cupped their hands towards the old man with sincerity no matter how impatient they were.

Chapter 1652: Recruitment Through a Bloody Pledge

Translator: WQL Editor: Aleem

Zhang Tie also stood up with the others as he made a special hand rite like others.

There were too many rites in Taixia Country, including crossing hands rite, cupping hands rite, palms rite, bowing rite, kowtowing rite, ect.. Each rite was further divided into many categories. Among them, kowtowing rite contained nine varieties, which was really remarkable but confusing. So many rites were the products of social development at this age. However, in Motian Realm, as humans and demons had been fighting for tens of thousands of years, the rites here were much simpler and classic like those in the military camps. In Motian Realm, commoners would cup their hands towards each other. They would lower their heads and cup their hands only when they saw dignified clan elders or supreme immortal generals or immortal emperors who could open immortal palaces. They would pray in immortal palaces or immortal halls.

As for hand rites, people would cross their hands on their chest before pushing them upwards quickly, regardless of gender.

When the old man and the woman entered, Zhang Tie could only abandon the questions for the time being. As he had just been to Motian Realm for a couple of days, he had not communicated with many people. Nor did he know Motian Realm well; especially the secrets and knowledge of immortal general in this world. No matter what, as long as he could settle down in this world, he would have enough time and opportunities to learn from people.

Zhang Tie then recovered his composure.

Not knowing whether it was just an illusion or not, Zhang Tie felt that the two people had glanced at him stealthily when they entered.

"Sorry for being late, please have a seat…" the old man replied calmly with a hands rite, which meant that he was the host of this job fair.

Those immortal generals in the room had long been impatient; especially the two immortal generals whom Zhang Tie met outside. The moment everyone took a seat, one of the two guys had opened his mouth.

"It's said that Dragon Emperor Immortal Palace is recruiting immortal generals, is it true?"

"It's true. Dragon Emperor Immortal Palace is indeed recruiting immortal generals. Besides the branch of Dragon Emperor Immortal Palace in Heavenly Square City, all the Dragon Emperor Immortal Palaces above 3 scales across Motian Realm are recruiting immortal generals!" the old man said calmly.

After hearing the old man's response, the fierce immortal general instantly let out a sigh as he continued, "I wonder about the regulations and requirements and whether treatment varies with level, 10 element crystals for each level higher?"

"Each immortal general would have at least 10 element crystals monthly. If you make meritorious deeds or acquire major titles, you might get more!" the old man in black long robe with dragon pattern explained calmly. However, when the two fierce immortal generals' eyes sparkled, the old man's following words slightly changed their faces, "However, we're recruiting immortal generals through bloody a pledge; instead of a contracted pledge…"

Not only the two fierce generals, but even the other immortal generals in the room also looked pale after hearing the old man's words. The two women beside Zhang Tie exchanged a glance with each other as they turned solemn at once.

Zhang Tie was confused as he kept asking Ji Yuelan secretly using battle qi, "What's a contracted pledge? What's a bloody pledge?"

Ji Yuelan had long treated Zhang Tie as an immortal general who had forgotten about everything. Therefore, after hearing Zhang Tie's question, she told him secretly, "Contracted recruitment refers to signing a contract with immortal palace whose duration varies from one year to many years; at most dozen of years. After the contract is terminated, the employee would recover his or her freedom. It's the most often pattern for recruiting immortal generals adopted by immortal palaces. As for recruitment through a bloody pledge, the immortal generals who join the immortal palace should make an immortal bloody pledge to serve the immortal palace faithfully. Unless they were hunted by the entire immortal palace due to betrayal, they could not be free any longer. Generally, most of the bloody pledges aim at recruiting immortal generals that immortal palaces cultivate since young or immortal generals of clans which have previously served immortal palaces. Few immortal generals are recruited from outside like this. You'd better watch out!"

Zhang Tie understood it right away. The so-called contracted recruitment was equal to the recruitment of short-term staff or contracted staff; the so-called recruitment through a bloody pledge meant the business group was expanding its shareholders. The staff being recruited in the earlier pattern only served the business group for a limited period of time. By contrast, in the second pattern, employees were bound to the business group. If the business group could grow prosperous, it would be acceptable for real; however, if the business group was in the red, the employees would be trapped. Given the current situation facing Dragon Emperor Immortal Palace, it might be more suitable to the latter kind.

"Since Dragon Emperor has disappeared for over 900 years, Dragon Emperor Immortal Palace is on the brink of collapse. However, it is still recruiting immortal generals through a bloody pledge at our risk. We two are not interested in it. Sorry about that. See you…" The two fierce immortal generals whom Zhang Tie met outside instantly stood up and left after exchanging a glance with each other.

The tall and tough earth immortal general who came here in the end also shook his head as he said, "What a pity! I'm leaving my clan for cultivation. I have to return to the future. See you…"

In the blink of an eye, 3 of the 10 people had left.

The old man watched the three people depart quietly.

"As Dragon Emperor had disappeared for so many years, why would Dragon Emperor Immortal Palace still recruit immortal generals through the bloody pledge? I wonder how would the elders in the immortal palace develop Dragon Emperor Immortal Palace instead of having us die together with them." The calm man who used to keep his eyes closed finally opened his mouth.

The old man took a look at that calm man with admiration as he answered in a low voice, "Although the Dragon Emperor is not here, it doesn't mean that he has died. Perhaps, he would come back one day. Even if the Dragon Emperor has died, it doesn't mean that Dragon Emperor Immortal Palace would perish. As long as someone in Dragon Emperor Immortal Palace promotes to a supreme immortal general, he would heft the great banner of the immortal palace too!"

"What if not?" the arrogant earth immortal general asked.

���Within 100 years, if the Dragon Emperor doesn't come back or nobody else in the immortal palace could heft the great banner of the immortal palace, Dragon Emperor Immortal Palace would perish itself. By then, you could leave freely…" the old man said as he glanced around the others at present, "Within 100 years, although you would sustain a bit more dangers, you would also gain bumper compensation. Although it appears that you've created a chance for Dragon Emperor Immortal Palace, you're actually creating a chance for yourselves too…"

Chapter 1653: Joining Dragon Emperor Immortal Palace

Translator: WQL Editor: Aleem

After hearing the old man's words, Zhang Tie realized that this was the last effort of Dragon Emperor Immortal Palace after Dragon Emperor disappeared. Although Zhang Tie didn't know about the treatment for immortal generals in other immortal palaces, he believed that the compensation of 10 element crystals monthly was "high" in Motian Realm. They paid such high compensation because they were deeply convinced that a big figure in Dragon Emperor Immortal Palace would promote to a sage-level knight in 100 years. When Dragon Emperor Immortal Palace was mired in dangers, they recruited a great handful of immortal generals so as to stabilize the foundation of Dragon Emperor Immortal Palace.

Even idiots could think through it.

As all the immortal generals in the room were smart, they figured it out in the blink of an eye——There's no free lunch for real. The high compensation provided by Dragon Emperor Immortal Palace cannot be easily earned.

"I could make a bloody pledge to join Dragon Emperor Immortal Palace. However, I need one year's interval for free cultivation after serving Dragon Emperor Immortal Palace for a year. During the period of my private cultivation, I have the right to refuse any task dispatched by Dragon Emperor Immortal Palace!"

The arrogant earth immortal general in the room opened his mouth. After hearing such a condition, Zhang Tie smacked his lips as he thought, 'He wants high compensation and long holiday at the same time. One day work, one day rest. If Dragon Emperor Immortal Palace agreed with him, they would fail to manage other immortal generals well. However, without such high compensation, nobody would join it.'

"Are you a supreme immortal general?" the woman in fiery outfit beside the old man in black robe asked him.

"I'm an earth immortal general!"

"If so, let's talk about it when you promote to a supreme immortal general. By then, we could meet even higher requirements!" the woman said straightforwardly and aggressively as she looked up at that guy in a picky look with an embarrassing smile, "Or, if you could defeat a water immortal general and bring back the head of a water demon general from the black realm, your conditions might be more convincing!"

"You…" The arrogant earth immortal general instantly sprung up as he wanted to lose his temper. However, at the sight of that woman and the old man in black robe, he replied with a cold harrumph before leaving by slamming the door behind him.

The old man in black robe didn't stop him.

In this world, there were always conceited people who would like to enjoy the treatment of protagonists wherever they were as if they were princes or princesses. That earth immortal general might be that kind of person or he wanted to raise his value after noticing the dilemma facing Dragon Emperor Immortal Palace. Unimaginably, he was despised. Zhang Tie felt that these people were rather pretty funny. Seriously, these immortal generals in Motian Realm were almost like those knights in Taixia Country. People's nature remained unchanged no matter where they were.

"After making a bloody pledge to join Dragon Emperor Immortal Palace, could we access to the Classics Palace and the Secret Palace of Dragon Emperor Immortal Palace?" the calm man asked.

"After making a bloody pledge to join Dragon Emperor Immortal Palace, you need to adapt to it for a decade. Ten years later, you would enjoy the corresponding resources with the earlier immortal generals according to your contribution to the immortal palace…"

'There's a 10-year trial period?' Zhang Tie was amazed. However, it sounded reasonable. No matter what, as fresh members, if they shared the same treatment with elder members right now, they would dissatisfy elder members for real. As a result, internal turmoil might be aroused in the Dragon Emperor Immortal Palace. It was definitely not what the powers of Dragon Emperor Immortal Palace would like to see. Therefore, they set one decade's transition so that the fresh ones could grow elder and make contributions to the immortal palace. Later on, they would gradually be accepted by the elder members and enjoy the resources inside the immortal palace.

"Ten years?" the calm man let out a long sigh as he shook his head, saying, "It's too long. I, Jiang Zixu, only strive for each second…"

After saying such words, the calm man left the room too.

As a result, there were only 5 candidates left at that moment, respectively Zhang Tie, the two women beside him and the two brothers.

During this process, Ji Yuelan might be communicating with that woman on her side secretly using battle qi.

Not knowing why, besides the two brothers and the two women, even the old man in black robe and that woman in fiery outfit fixed their eyes on Zhang Tie at this moment. Since Zhang Tie remained silent, of course, he aroused the attention of all the others at present.

Scratching his head, Zhang Tie put straightforwardly, "As I've got injured, I couldn't remember my past. I want to join Dragon Emperor Immortal Palace. Do you agree?"

"As long as you're not a demon and you're willing to serve, even if you got injured, you could also join Dragon Emperor Immortal Palace. Additionally, after joining us, Dragon Emperor Immortal Palace would try to cure your disease too!" the old man in black robe told Zhang Tie with a faint, gentle smile.

"Great, I'm in!" Zhang Tie replied quickly.

Zhang Tie's quick decision slightly shocked the old man and the woman.

"Are you sure?" the old man asked Zhang Tie seriously.

"Haha, you bet. I feel your condition is very normal and reasonable. Rights and obligations should be equal. If one wants to enjoy something, he should pay for it accordingly. Your condition is fair. Therefore, I accept it!" Zhang Tie said calmly as he shrugged.

"Rights and obligations should be equal…" the old man considered this sentence with a slight frown as he nodded and said, "Not bad, it's a nice and philosophical sentence! What's your name…"

"I'm Zhang Tie!"

"Who else among you four would like to join Dragon Emperor Immortal Palace?" the old man asked the remaining four.

"We two are in!" Ji Yuelan answered as she revealed a brilliant smile at Zhang Tie. Meanwhile, the female immortal general beside her nodded.

Previously, the two brothers were a bit hesitant. However, when they saw that the two women joined in, after exchanging a glance with each other, they hurriedly expressed, "Plus we two…"

"Fine, now that you five would like to join in, you should settle down in the immortal palace first. A few days later, after this round of recruitment, you would hold a ceremony for making a bloody pledge with the other fresh immortal generals so as to join Dragon Emperor Immortal Palace officially. As for now, we need to confirm that you're not demons in disguise. After that, you could go back to your residence to get some rest…"

Chapter 1654: Playing with Fire

Translator: WQL Editor: Aleem

Within a few days, it was Zhang Tie's second time to accept a blood test. The high frequency aroused him a doubt——Are there many shadow knights or disguised demons in this world? Otherwise, why are humans so anxious about defending disguised demons as if they are facing great enemies?

The test method in the immortal palace was stricter than that in the airboat. In the airboat, they only pierced Zhang Tie's finger for a blood test; however, in the immortal palace, besides piercing each finger of his two hands, they even pierced his two earlobes.

It was that hot girl in fiery outfit who tested Zhang Tie's blood.

Although Zhang Tie accepted the test frankly, he still had a question as he asked Ji Yuelan secretly using battle qi, "Why do they have to test four places? Isn't one place enough?"

"Previously, it indeed worked only by piercing the objective's finger; however, disguised demons above wind demon general could master blood changing secret method and have human blood stay in their body locations for a long term. Through this secret method, they could cheat the examiners. Previously, we didn't know that disguised demons mastered such a secret method. As a result, many disguised demons mixed with humans and caused a great loss. Some immortal palaces were even destroyed. Therefore, for the sake of safety, everyone who would join the immortal palace should accept the blood test on three body parts!"

"Why on three?"

"Because it's said that disguised demons could store human blood in more body parts as they enhance their levels. Therefore, it would be safer by testing three body parts!"

Zhang Tie finally understood as he continued, "Are there many disguised demons?"

"Erm, my naive young brother. Don't you remember anything? All right, the number of disguised demons could even run a demon emperor palace. Among disguised demons, there's a Tricky Demon Emperor who plays a myriad of vicious tricks. Over the past thousands of years, Tricky Demon Emperor alone has toppled many human immortal palaces. That's terrifying…"

After hearing Ji Yuelan's words, Zhang Tie didn't fear at all; conversely, he became thrilled. Licking his lips, Zhang Tie exclaimed inside, 'Motherf*cker, previously I thought I couldn't take the fruit of source of shadow demons anymore. It appears that I might have a chance to take such fruit in Motian Realm. I might even take some fruits of plunder.'

As for the secret disgusing method of shadow demons, Zhang Tie just took it as sh*t because his lotus flower eyes were especially for identifying this ability.

The hot girl tested Zhang Tie's blood very carefully. The old man in black robe gazed at Zhang Tie during the whole process. Not until the four body parts of Zhang Tie were all proved safe did the hot girl take a look at the old man in black robe as she slightly nodded. The old man then revealed a slight smile.

In a short period of time, the five people had undergone the blood test. They all passed it.

"I'm Huang Baimei, the head of the branch of Dragon Emperor Immortal Palace in Heavenly Square City. This is our general deacon Leng Manxue. On the fifth day of next month, we would hold a ceremony of making a bloody pledge in the immortal palace officially. Before then, you could live in the immortal palace and get acquainted with each other meanwhile. If you have any question, come for me or General Deacon Leng…"

After saying these words, the old man had the hot girl lead the five freshmen and women to their residence in the immortal palace.

Not until then did Zhang Tie know that hot girl was called Leng Manxue, the general deacon of this immortal palace.

After leaving the room, General Deacon Leng took the five people to their residence as she kept introducing the immortal palace for them.

"The basement of the immortal palace is the immortal prison. The floor above the immortal prison is warehouse; the floor above warehouse is the residence for guardians, historians and deacons. Your residence is on two flanks of the top floor. Our head lives in the Head's Pavilion on the top of the immortal palace. As the grand justice, commander and driver have been dispatched to other branches, these jobs were in vacancy in our branch. I'm assuming these titles for the time being. When you join the immortal palace officially and your abilities are approved by the head, you would take your jobs accordingly…"

"Driver?" Zhang Tie asked as he looked at Leng Manxue with a weird expression.

"Yes, is there any problem?"

"Haha, it's fine; it's fine!" Zhang Tie shook his head with a smile as he realized that the title driver in the Dragon Emperor Immortal Palace of Motian Realm was absolutely different than those drivers who were responsible for driving cars in Taixia Country; especially those "old drivers" in the pornographic stories in folk boites or teahouses or brothels. Therefore, he almost laughed out.

Leng Manxue threw a deep glance at Zhang Tie. Closely after that, she said distantly, "There's a senior recovery pool in the immortal palace. You could stay inside for a few days. It might cure your brain disease. If not, when there's a chance, we will find a top doctor for you in the headquarter of Dragon Emperor Immortal Palace.

"Haha, it's fine; thank you, thank you!" Zhang Tie said hastily.

"You seemed to not really care about your bygones?" Leng Manxue threw another glance at Zhang Tie as if she was studying him.

"Whatever, I feel good now. It's like having a fresh start. Although I couldn't remember what happened, I feel much relaxed!"

"You really think so?"

"Motian Realm is like a river. Each of us is just a fish in the river. To wet the others using one's saliva could never match forgetting each other in the river!" Zhang Tie said in a poetic way, which was actually a classic line which had been carried forward for thousands of years in Taixia Country.

After hearing Zhang Tie's last words, except for Liu Meng and Liu Yong, all the three women fixed their eyes on Zhang Tie with amazed looks as they slowed down their pace in the split second. Ji Yuelan's eyes were flickering while a brilliant light flashed across Jiang Ruoxin's eyes.

The line actually originated from Zhuangtzi, a Hua sage in ancient times, a great philosopher and man of letters. His classic words contained exceptional thoughts and human moods, which were enlightening and shocking even after thousands of years.

Not knowing why, after hearing Zhang Tie's words, Leng Manxue didn't say anything; instead she was thinking about something. After taking them to their residence, Leng Manxue opened her mouth again. According to Leng Manxue, Zhang Tie knew that the Dragon Emperor Immortal Palace in Heavenly Square City had already recruited three immortal generals before today. Two of the three fresh employees were cultivating in their own rooms while the other one was executing a task outside. Today, the Dragon Emperor Immortal Palace in Heavenly Square City recruited 5 more immortal generals, the most over these days.

"Each one of you would have a private room. Each room is installed with rune instruments for the sake of your safety. Therefore, you could cultivate inside your room without any concern. Additionally, you would have two free meals a day in the immortal palace, one breakfast and one lunch. If you have any questions, you could reach to the deacons here…"

The five people's rooms were close to each other in the same corridor. Zhang Tie's room was in the corner. After taking him to his room and handing him a rune metal plate which served as the key, Leng Manxue left there directly.

Watching Leng Manxue leaving, Zhang Tie played the metal plate for a few seconds. Just now, he had already seen Ji Yuelan open the door using the key. Therefore, he imitated her to insert the metal plate into the slot on the doorframe. With a "click" sound, the door was unlocked. Zhang Tie then drew out the metal plate and pushed open the door before walking in.

Being very large and clean, this room covered over 100 square meters. It was matched with the whole set of furniture and beddings. From the windows, he could take a bird's-eye view over the entire Heavenly Square City as the immortal palace was the highest building in this city. He could even see the cascading waterfall from the airborne snow mountain in the distance.

After taking a look around this room using his lotus-flower eyes, Zhang Tie found the furnishings in this room were indeed safe and private as was told by Leng Manxue. He could cultivate in the cultivation room without any concern.

'It's fixed?' Zhang Tie heaved a deep sigh.

There was an empty bookshelf in the room. Therefore, Zhang Tie felt pitiful as he lost a chance to quickly learn about Motian Realm. Right then, he heard knocks.

Zhang Tie opened the door as he found it was Ji Yuelan and her female partner Jiang Ruoxin.

"Young brother, it's said that flying pulp in Heavenly Square City tastes good. As there's no supper in the immortal palace, how about hanging out and eating some food…" Ji Yuelan said as passionately as before. As for Jiang Ruoxin, although she remained distant, her eyes contained more curiosity about Zhang Tie as if she didn't oppose to take a walk with Zhang Tie outside.

"It would be nice…" Zhang Tie nodded as he walked out of his room and closed the door.

When they arrived at the door of Liu Meng, Liu Meng's door suddenly opened while two heads were exposed. At the sight of Zhang Tie and the two girls, Liu Meng and Liu Yong uttered, "Erm, what a coincidence…you…you're going out too?"

"Yes, we're going to hang out and eat some food. Would you like to come with us?" Zhang Tie asked with a smile; instead of revealing the awkward "coincidence" created by the two brothers.

"Yes, yes…" the two brothers hurriedly answered. Closely after that, they walked out and smirked before leaving with Zhang Tie, Ji Yuelan and Jiang Ruoxin.

Ji Yuelan didn't know whether she should laugh or cry about the two brothers' deed. As a result, she glared at Zhang Tie, not knowing whether he was really silly or not. By contrast, Jiang Ruoxin became more curious about Zhang Tie——just now, when Zhang Tie flirted with Ji Yuelan, he was like a handsome, romantic veteran; even Ji Yuelan couldn't help being fascinated by him. Facing the two Liu brothers, he was so frank and generous. Very few men could do that. Besides, he was full of bizarre charisma, he could easily win the favor of a woman…

"This man is very dangerous…" Jiang Ruoxin told Ji Yuelan secretly using his battle qi.

"Hmm, do you want to scramble for this young man with me? If you want, I don't mind sharing him with you…" Ji Yuelan answered with a joke.

"This man is not young or innocent. I feel he's different than any other men that you've met before. If you're really fascinated by him, you might be fooled by him in the end. Hopefully, you don't cry then…"

"Impossible!"

"Do you think you understand him?"

"At least better than you do…"

"If so, do you know his level?"

After being silent for a second, Ji Yuelan replied, "He should be a fierce immortal general. Some immortal generals could cover their cultivation base through secret methods. It's nothing strange at all…"

"But I think he's more than a fierce immortal general!"

"Whatever, it's better if he's an earth immortal general. It's fine as long as he's not a disguised demon. Don't you feel such a young man is charismatic? I would not say no even if he could fool me in the end…"

"You're playing with fire!"

"Heh heh, I'm gonna burn him using my fingers…"

Chapter 1655: Heavenly Square Building

Despite being a bit stupid, Liu brothers were not boring. Although the two brothers admired Ji Yuelan and Jiang Ruoxin very much, the two girls didn't have any feelings toward them at all. As a result, they kept a distance with the two brothers politely. On the street, watching the two brothers scratching their faces and wanting to flirt with the two beauties every once a while, Zhang Tie felt speechless about them.

Even so, as they would soon join Dragon Emperor Immortal Palace officially and become colleagues, Ji Yuelan and Jiang Ruoxin didn't make the two brothers embarrassed. As a result, the two brothers were pretty inspired as they grew more diligent towards the two beauties. This made Zhang Tie absolutely speechless.

Affection between male and female couldn't be realized without practice besides personal comprehension. Evidently, the Liu brothers lacked comprehension and practice. It was Zhang Tie's first time to see such muddle-headed immortal generals.

In Motian Realm, Heavenly Square City was a large city as it contained over 5 million population. Additionally, Heavenly Square City was a hub with advanced trade. After two days, at the beginning of the next month, traders from all directions would converge in Heavenly Square City. Therefore, it was pretty boisterous in Heavenly Square City recently. People from all walks of life could be seen here. It felt special when Zhang Tie wandered in the city and sensed the bizarre local customs.

Through communication, Zhang Tie learned more about Motian Realm from the other four. When they passed by a store, Zhang Tie bought a complete map of Motian Realm.

This map cost him the greater part of the crystal coins that Captain Shi gifted him.

"Brother Zhang Tie, what did you buy this map for?"

Watching Zhang Tie take out a map from the store, the Liu Brothers finally ended their description about their hardships in cultivation to Ji Yuelan and Jiang Ruoxin as they instantly shifted the topic to Zhang Tie as if they met their savior.

"Haha, I feel empty in mind. I couldn't remember anything; even where I am. Therefore, I bought a map to enrich my knowledge!" Zhang Tie said with a smile. The map looks to be made of leather. Even though it was put in a cylinder, it was also longer than 1 m. It would be a bit eye-catching in hand. Thankfully, there's a string on it. Therefore, Zhang Tie carried it on back.

Zhang Tie finally felt being inconvenient without space-teleportation equipment. Thankfully, space-teleportation equipment was also available in Motian Realm periodically. In the first day and the fifteenth day of each month, the special contracting force created by this space structure would decline to zero, during which period, traders across the Motian Realm would attend the trade fair. The first day of each month was called a big fair while the fifteenth day of each month was called a small fair. Most of the businessmen carried portable space-teleportation equipment which contained the most commodities. Actually, commodities couldn't be accessed to space-teleportation equipment except for the first day and the fifteenth day of each month.

On the airboat of Captain Shi, Zhang Tie had known it. It meant that Zhang Tie could use Castle of Black Iron twice from the first day of next month although he couldn't use it freely like before. Therefore, Zhang Tie warned himself to not fight his enemies except on the first day or the fifteenth day of a month. In the two days, even if he couldn't defeat his enemies, he could still seek protection in Castle of Black Iron. If not, he might not return to Castle of Black Iron at the critical moment, which meant a tragedy for him.

After hearing Zhang Tie's words, the Liu brothers instantly had a sense of superiority as they chested out. Liu Yong burst out laughing as he said, "We both have a good memory. As long as we've traveled somewhere, we would not forget its location. If Brother Zhang has any question about the map, just ask us. We've been to many places across Motian Realm. We're definitely more effective than map, hahaha…"

Watching the two brothers' arrogant looks, Ji Yuelan rolled her eyes to them at once. Jiang Ruoxin directly turned around as she didn't want to see them anymore. Whereas, Zhang Tie didn't care about that; because he knew that the two brothers were just being straightforward instead of being a show-off or making him embarrassed. They just wanted to help him sincerely. However, they didn't find Ji Yuelan's response to them at all; instead, they kept telling Zhang Tie where they had been. Actually, neither of the two beauties were interested in the two brothers. Zhang Tie could only feel sorry for the two brothers inside. With such a low emotional quotient, it was more difficult for them to get beauties than promoting to immortal generals…

After a while, the night gradually fell. Watching Zhang Tie listening to the hubbub of Liu brothers about their experience with a great interest, Ji Yuelan finally couldn't stand throwing a glare at the two brothers before talking to Zhang Tie in a spoiled way with a smile, "I'm hungry, it might be the most famous Heavenly Square Building in Heavenly Square City in front of us. Flying pulp is their brand drink…"

"Great, let's go taste it!" Zhang Tie replied with a smile. Closely after that, he shook the remaining coins in his wallet, saying, "But I've not got enough money. I'm your guest!"

"You're all our guests, hahaha…" Liu Meng interrupted at once.

"Hahaha, nice. I have no objection!"

"Brother Zhang is very interesting, hahaha…" Liu Meng burst into laughter as he forcefully patted Zhang Tie's shoulder after gaining Zhang Tie's "quick support".

Heavenly Square Building was a 7-storey high pavilion. Before the night fell, the Heavenly Square Building had almost been full. When the five people arrived, there was already no vacancy. Coincidentally, a servant of a major clan in Heavenly Square City ran over there and noticed the boss that they had to cancel off the order as their master had something important to deal with tonight. The boss then asked Zhang Tie whether they would "choose" the private room on the 7th storey. Because the seven private rooms on the 7th storey were the most expensive in Heavenly Square Building, ordinary people couldn't afford it.

As immortal generals, of course, Liu brothers didn't care about expenditure. Therefore, they instantly let the boss dispatch someone to lead them to the private room on the 7th storey.

Soon after they entered the private room, the boss had run upstairs flurriedly, sweat all over his forehead, and he said, "Five guests, I'm so sorry; I'm so sorry. This private room has been ordered by someone…"

"Someone? Aren't we someone?" Zhang Tie said with a smile.

"No…I don't mean that…five guests, how about waiting for a second? I will arrange another private room for you after a while. You could enjoy 20 percent off and some brand dishes of this store. We've got some VIPs…" the boss explained with an embarrassed smile.

"Pah…" Liu Meng slapped onto the table as he glared at the boss, "Break win…win…" He instantly stopped as he realized that it was not suitable to abuse people in front of two beauties. As a result, Liu Meng went berserk, "Do you think we couldn't afford you or what? We will stay here today. We will not go anywhere else. Quick, bring us drinks and dishes. If you're late, we brothers would demolish your sh*t store…"

"Who's so presumptuous? Who dare demolish our Heavenly Square Building?" a gloomy voice suddenly drifted from outside…

Chapter 1656: The Reason

Translator: WQL Editor: Aleem

At the same time, the door of the private room was pushed open from outside rudely while a youth at his 20's swaggered in. With a foldable fan in his hand, he was followed in by some bodyguards.

Elevated eye corners; a bit bluish black bags under eyes; abnormally white face; fickle footsteps. At the sight of him, Zhang Tie had known that he was indulged in liquor and sex. The four bodyguards behind the young man were all tough guys; however, they were at most LV 14. Therefore, the five people didn't fear them even if 10,000 more bodyguards like them were at present.

When the youth in brilliant garment entered the private room, his eyes instantly turned bright like two will-o'-the-wisps at the sight of Ji Yuelan and Jiang Ruoxin. He directly ignored Zhang Tie and Liu brothers. As Zhang Tie looked too young and was in very cheap clothes, he was like a trivial lackey. Although Liu brothers were immortal generals, they were more like hatchet men given their look due to a shortage of personalities of bosses.

What was more, the youth was lower than LV 11. When Zhang Tie's group was low-key, he couldn't even find that they were immortal generals; instead, he only took them as commoners. How could a playboy like him respect such "commoners"?

"Hahaha, I see two beauties. I see; I see…" the youth in brilliant garment said in a fickle tone as he opened his foldable fan in a handsome way with a sound "Shhua". At the same time, he revealed a smile and told Ji Yuelan and Jiang Ruoxin, "Two girls, you look strange. I've not seen you in Heavenly Square City before. It must be your first time to Heavenly Square City."

Jiang Ruoxin didn't speak; however, Ji Yuelan replied as she smiled like an innocent little white rabbit, "Yes, it's our sisters' first time to visit Heavenly Square City!"

'First time; sisters.' The youth instantly seized the key information as he looked at Ji Yuelan greedily. After looking at her plump breasts, his throat moved as he felt a bit warm, continuing, "I think you have just got acquainted with the three men today?"

"Yes!" Ji Yuelan answered as she blinked her eyes as if she had determined to cheat the youth to death.

The youth in noble garment instantly revealed a generous look as he said, "As the big trade fair would kick off in two days in Heavenly Square City, people from all walks of life have been here. As a result, it's a bit messy here. Since you're new here, you'd better watch out when making friends. You'd better stay away from those ruffians and humble people in case of being trapped. Otherwise, you would regret. A few days ago, I took some patrollers to catch some liars in the streets and put them behind bars…"

Weirdos existed everywhere, even in Motian Realm. Zhang Tie had not imagined that he could encounter such a weirdo soon after entering Heavenly Square City. After hearing this guy depreciating others, speaking highly of himself blatantly and threatening him and Liu brothers, Zhang Tie was not angry; instead, he waited for this guy to continue his performance. By contrast, Liu brothers had long been infuriated. If not Ji Yuelan interrupted them, the two brothers might have long stomped onto the youth's face fiercely for dozens of times.

"Aah, dude, you could take patrollers to catch ruffians on streets. May I know your identity…" Ji Yuelan asked with a "surprise" as her eyes sparkled.

"Heavenly Square City previously belonged to Zi Clan. I'm Zi Gui!" The youth became more pleasant after being bewildered by Ji Yuelan's performance. As a result, he squinted his eyes and exposed his identity at a stroke. Closely after that, he struck the iron while it was hot, "Ladies, given your good looks and qualities, you should make friends with people of the top class. After a while, I will invite some people here. They're all top figures among immortal generals. If you agree to stay, I could introduce those immortal generals to you after a while…"

"Doesn't Heavenly Square City belong to Dragon Emperor Immortal Palace? Is there anything to do with Zi clan?" Zhang Tie instantly asked Jiang Ruoxin secretly using his battle qi soon after the youth finished his words. Because he was new here, he was still confused about the situation facing Heavenly Square City.

"Heavenly Square City belonged to Zi clan previously. However, Zi clan sought for Dragon Emperor Immortal Palace's protection over 300 years ago. As a result, Dragon Emperor Immortal Palace could build immortal palaces and immortal halls in the city. The two parties cooperated with each other for their own needs…" Jiang Ruoxin explained it to Zhang Tie secretly as she tried to not laugh out.

"Aah, dude, you even know top immortal generals? Don't lie to me…" Ji Yuelan said with a curious look as she patted her plump breasts.

"Haha, they're immortal generals from Star Emperor Immortal Palace. Lady, if you stay here, you would see them soon!" the silly youth continued pleasantly.

Zhang Tie finally understood that Zi Clan in Heavenly Square City had long prepared to seek for Star Emperor Immortal Palace's protection. Therefore, Dragon Emperor Immortal Palace was recruiting immortal generals these days.

"Does Dragon Emperor Immortal Palace know anything about Zi clan's blatant deeds in Heavenly Square City? I'm afraid that the Dragon Emperor Immortal Palace have long known Zi clan's plan. However, they just bore it. No matter what, Star Emperor Immortal Palace is too aggressive. Given Dragon Emperor Immortal Palace's weak power, it might be exerting its utmost effort to avoid from contradictions with Star Emperor Immortal Palace. Perhaps, the powers of Dragon Emperor Immortal Palace are thinking about stabilizing the current situation."

"The contradictions could barely be avoided. A few days ago, Biyao City the largest city where Dragon Emperor Immortal Palace's branch was located in Sun Shooting Plains was merged by Star Emperor Immortal Palace. It's said that Dragon Emperor Immortal Palace suffered casualties. Now, the immortal generals of Star Emperor Immortal Palace have arrived at Heavenly Square City and stay with a dude of Zi clan. Their purpose is clear to us all. Nevertheless, Dragon Emperor Immortal Palace didn't make any response to it."

Zhang Tie had known some laws when he was in the Seventh National Male Middle School in Blackhot City. In campus, as long as a male student was bullied, he should immediately fight back even risk bleeding in case of more troubles. 'How come some big figures don't understand it?' Zhang Tie sighed for Dragon Emperor Immortal Palace in his heart…
