Castle of Black Iron

”Elder broher, do you really mean that?” Zhang Tie asked happily.

Honestly, Zhang Tie didn’t have any experience in establishing a sect. The significance that an earth knight joined his sect would be utterly different than that Zhang Tie enrolled his apprentices. As it brought Zhang Tie a great sense of identity and achievement. It was an earth knight. An earth knight was definitely unrivaled in Waii Subcontinent. Even in Taixia Country and the Earth-elements Realm, an earth knight could also be on the equal footing with a provincial governor.

Zhang Tie knew that it was a demographic dividend. His responsible and dauntless spirit in the hieron’s ruins gained Mountain Lifting Hermit’s identification. Therefore, Mountain Lifting Hermit would like to join Iron-Dragon Sect. Otherwise, an earth knight could establish a sect wherever he wanted; even if he didn’t want to establish a sect, he could also become the VIP or employed elder in the top 7 sects in Taixia Country.

”I’m single and have nothing to worry about. As long as the younger brother doesn’t mind it, this elder brother could be a steward for you!” At the sight of the Zhang Tie’s pleasant look, Mountain Lifting Hermit felt pretty warm inside as he turned pleasant too.

Zhang Tie said seriously, ”Elder brother, what are you talking about? If the elder brother could join my small temple, I would be pretty happy. However, as Iron-Dragon Sect has just been founded, it’s a bit simple and crude. I will be relieved as long as the elder brother doesn’t mind it!”

”Honestly, these years, many sects and clans have invited me to join them; however, I always felt that I lacked something; therefore, I didn’t promise any of them. After getting acquaintance with younger brother, I figured out what I lacked, ”freedom from worry!” Mountain Lifting Hermit signed with emotion, ”Compared to other sects and major clans, where I have to be meticulous. To be with younger brother, I don’t need to set up others or be screwed. Everything is simple. Additionally, I have to find a safe destination so that I could settle down when I’m injured!”

”Elder brother, trust me; if you join Iron-Dragon Sect, you will be the grand elder of Iron-Dragon Sect. My Iron-Dragon Sect is in the 18 Xuantian Mountain Peaks in Yangui Mountain of Northeast Military Region. After a few days, elder brother could go back to Iron-Dragon Sect with me. If Elder brother likes any one of the 18 mountain peaks, just take it. You will be the owner of that mountain peak. You could cultivate safely and enroll some apprentices before imparting your Mountain Embracing Sutra to them. It all depends on you!”

”It turns out that younger brother has long thought about my Mountain Embracing Sutra .” Mountain Lifting Hermit watched Zhang Tie with a faint smile.

Zhang Tie replied with a shameless look, ”It would be a waste if you didn’t impart such a count-level classic to your apprentices!”

After throwing a glance at each other, the two people burst out into laughter at the same time.

”I will take one mountain peak from Iron-Dragon Sect too!” Bai Suxian who had been listening to their talk silently on one side suddenly uttered.

”You want one too?” Zhang Tie turned around and threw a glance at Bai Suxian before saying, ”You stay with me, then why do you want to take a mountain peak?”

”No, I want one, I want one...” Bai Suxian pouted her mouth as she directly drew Zhang Tie’s hand and started to behave like a spoiled child.

”Ahem...ahem...” Mountain Lifting Hermit pretended to cough twice as he looked at Zhang Tie, ”Younger brother, can you talk about such a confidential affair back in your room? This elder brother has been old enough, I cannot bear the stimulation of you young people anymore!”

Before Zhang Tie responded to it, Bai Suxian had already blushed, ”I’ve not imagined that Mountain Lifting Hermit is so obscene!”

Zhang Tie burst out into laughter as he waved his hand and said, ”Well, when we go back, you can take whichever mountain peak you want!”

”That’s my man!” Bai Suxian became satisfied too.

”Younger brother, hasn’t your order for arrest been canceled off by the Supreme Court of Taixia Country? Aren’t you free now? But why...”

”Although the order for arrest has been canceled, the culprit of the tragedy in Fuhai City has not been caught. It hasn’t ended yet. Therefore, I don’t prepare to recover my original look in a short period!”

”If younger brother needs this elder brother’s help, just let me know!” Mountain Lifting Hermit said solemnly. Although it was just a simple promise, Zhang Tie knew that Mountain Lifting Hermit must be much more serious than others who made promises by beating their own chests. This was Mountain Lifting Hermit’s temperament.

”Elder brother, I swear that I will not behave affectedly with you!”

”How many people have known your real identity, younger brother?”

”Elder brother, Bai Suxian and my elder brother Zhang Yang. Even my parents and elders of Huaiyuan Palace don’t know that Cui Li and Zhang Tie are the same!”

”What do you plan to do? You can’t be Cui Li for the rest of your life!”

”I’m also thinking about exposing my real identity to the public these days!” Zhang Tie said seriously, ”Actually, I have no ambition. I like tranquil life with my wives and children. I think it’s enough for me to have sufficient money with friends on my side. Previously, I always thought that I could avoid trouble by being low-key. However, through what I experienced in Taixia Country during these years, I find that it’s more effective to make someone fear about you than trying to stay away from them for more people. In this world, the battle strength is more persuasive than the mouth. The so-called peace is neither begging others to not harm you nor just bearing it when you’re bullied by others, but scare them away from you!”

”If there’s really such a day, younger brother’s body changing immortal bloodline would definitely shock the entire world. By then, those who really want to do harm to you might not be able to fall asleep when they thought about your body changing immortal bloodline. In the worst scenario, if Huaiyuan Palace were exterminated one day, as long as younger brother could survive on, with the talent of body changing immortal bloodline, you could make the enemy of Huaiyuan Palace sleepless and restless for the rest of their lives. I wonder when the younger brother could jump out to revenge them crazily. If an earth knight like younger brother really starts to fight the top 7 sects at the risk of your life one day, they might be annoyed too much!” Mountain Lifting Hermit threw a glance at Zhang Tie as he said solemnly, ”At that moment, common evil forces would indeed be shocked by your talents; however, if I were the enemy of Huaiyuan Palace and younger brother’s clan, I would ensure that I could kill you the moment I launched a strike. In this way, younger brother would be the shield and umbrella of Huaiyuan Palace and your clan. All the conflicts and stress would concentrate on you. If they didn’t kill you, they would not do harm to Huaiyuan Palace and younger brother’s clan!”

”If I could be the shield and umbrella of my family, I would never feel regretful to die for them!” Zhang Tie revealed a frank smile, ”Isn’t this the natural response of a man? As an earth knight, it’s my greatest honor to provide those people on my side with a better life, watch them smile and being free from fear even in the chaotic world. I don’t want to be popular among lords; I don’t want reputation, wealth, power and undertakings; I don’t want to reach the peak of knight’s world; I only expect that those beside me could have a smile which was free of trouble forever! I would like to do everything that I could do for such a smile!”

After hearing Zhang Tie’s words, Bai Suxian clenched his hand with sparkling eyes. Mountain Lifting Hermit became silent for a while before sighing with emotion, ”Given your words, younger brother, you’re greater than me!”

”Elder brother, everyone has his own ambitions. Elder brother pursues the peak of knight’s world. I pursue a smile from those people on my side at home!”

”What do I pursue for?” Bai Suxian interrupted him.

”You pursue staying with me obediently!” Zhang Tie replied with a smile.

”I see, master...” Bai Suxian replied in a spoiled way while her happiness was going to spill out of her eyes.

”Ahem...ahem...younger brother, if you keep behaving like that, this elder brother has to leave!”

”Hahaha, elder brother, I will not stimulate you anymore. Elder brother, you said that you were going to leave the hotel when you heard my voice. Where were you going to?”

”I’m going to the Treasures Complex, it’s said that a piece of God’s Star from a subcontinent is exhibited over there. There might be some space-teleportation items for sale; therefore, I want to take a look at them!”

Zhang Tie exchanged a quick smile with Bai Suxian before saying, ”It seems that we were predestined to meet each other today, we’re also preparing to take a look over there!”

”Let’s go!”

”Let’s go!”

Zhang Tie and Mountain Lifting Hermit burst out into laughter at the same time as the three people left the small courtyard of Heavens Seal Hotel towards the Treasures Complex.

Through communication, Mountain Lifting Hermit had already confirmed to join Iron-Dragon Sect, plus Bai Suxian. Therefore, the relationship between the three people became closer than before.

Mountain Lifting Hermit’s original surname was Gan. Therefore, Bai Suxian directly called him senior fellow apprentice Gan. Mountain Lifting Hermit also called Bai Suxian junior sister apprentice Bai. According to the suggestion of Mountain Lifting Hermit, they should call each other officially in Xuanyuan Hill, especially in Gold and Power Market no matter how they called each other privately. Therefore, Mountain Lifting Hermit and Bai Suxian should call Zhang Tie ”master” out of respect, which could indicate Zhang Tie’s identity and position in Iron-Dragon Sect.

Of course, Bai Suxian accepted the appellations pleasantly; Zhang Tie refused it in vain.

Zhang Tie was very curious about this piece of God’s Star in the Treasures Meeting...

The three people moved fast. Soon after they left Heavens Seal Hotel, they had seen a magnificent huge building with rich Hua characteristics in front of them.

There were two huge words Treasures Complex on the top of the 10-m high front gate!
