Castle of Black Iron

“This is Zhang Gui, my…subordinate. This is my pet mount. Although it looks ferocious, it’s human-friendly. As long as you don’t offend it, it will not hurt you. Liu Xing, make an arrangement for them. This thunder hawk will eat over 30 kg’s raw flesh and 5 vials of all-purpose medicament per day on the airboat…”

In the public, Zhang Gui was Zhang Tie’s subordinate.

Subordinate was an ambiguous concept, which could be a domestic general, a myrmidon, a servant or an employee. Although Zhang Gui’s real identity was Zhang Tie’s servant, Zhang Tie wouldn’t treat him as his servant in the public as it was meaningless to be that flamboyant. Even though Zhang Gui as a knight would like to be his pious servant, it was still too eye-catching in Youzhou Province. Few elders in top clans of Taixia Country could enjoy such a luxurious treatment. For instance, Uncle Zhong was Lord Guangnan’s myrmidon; instead of his servant…

In the beginning, they were afraid of the thunder hawk as it was tall and imposing. Additionally, it landed so fast in such a cool manner. After hearing that this thunder hawk was human-friendly, they immediately surrounded up to watch such a rarity. Although nobody dared touch its feathers, it should not be a problem for them to watch it from a close distance.

It was bustling in the surroundings. As these disciples were all youngsters, the moment they surrounded up, they had started to comment about the thunder hawk and discuss its kind. The thunder hawk tilted its head to look at them as it raised its wings in an evidently impatient way.

Among the comments, a young female suddenly uttered a loud exclamation.

“Wow, Master’s bird is so huge!”

Soon after the praise, the deck became quiet in a split second. The wind blew over while Zhang Tie’s disciples’ faces turned weird. They exchanged a glance with each other with a dumbfounded look.

Soon after she uttered, the female disciple had noticed that the atmosphere on the deck became weird. A senior sister apprentice stealthily drew her sleeve which reminded her something at once. Being blushed as the sunglow, she wanted to explain; however, she didn’t know how. Such an embarrassing thing could never be clarified at all.

Those disciples didn’t know what to say; they just stood still as they dared not burst out into laughter. Such a sudden silence made the junior sister apprentice pretty embarrassed.

“Hahaha, don’t stand still over there. Think about how to find a settlement for master’s pet. Such a bird couldn’t stay on the airboat for too long. We have to have it fly outside for a short while each day. Later on, this bird would be the immortal beast of our Iron-Dragon Sect. We should ask master about the name and the background of this big pet next time. We’d better look after it well. It’s my first time to see such an imposing, huge bird…” Zhu Dabiao burst out into laughter at the critical moment in a shameless way, relieving the weird atmosphere.

“Yes yes, junior brother apprentice Zhu is right. we should consider where to raise such a huge bird. I feel that it could live in the lobby as common cabins couldn’t hold it.”

“Hmm, I feel master’s pet is like a hawk; however, its size could match the legendary dragon hawk…”

“Its golden feathers are so beautiful as if they are made of gold…”

They commented one after another as if they had forgotten what the junior sister apprentice had said just now. The junior sister apprentice threw a stealthy glance at Zhu Dabiao in an appreciative way. At the sight of her appreciative look, Zhu Dabiao revealed a congenital obscene smile at the junior sister apprentice; closely after that, he even threw a customary glance at her well-developed breast self-consciously. Being scared by his glance so much, the junior sister apprentice hurriedly hid herself behind a senior sister apprentice while crossing her arms over her breast.

The casual exclamation of this female disciple became an “anecdote” being stealthily spread among disciples of Iron-Dragon Sect many years later.

…

The moment Zhang Tie returned to the airboat, the airboat had started to move. Only after slightly changing its direction, it headed towards Zhenzhou Province at once.

Although Zhang Tie had deepened into the airboat, he had already heard the talks of his disciples on the deck. Rubbing his weird face, he came to Bai Suxian’s room.

Now that Bai Suxian felt “a bit uncomfortable”, she would not wait for Zhang Tie in his room, but in her room.

Bai Suxian’s room was not locked from inside. Therefore, Zhang Tie directly pushed open her door. The moment he entered Bai Suxian’s room, he had already sniffed the special smell that combined rouge, perfume and the special body fragrance.

4 most beautiful maids were in the outer room, at the sight of Zhang Tie coming in, they hurriedly lowered their bodies on one side to hail him.

Zhang Tie nodded as he asked, “Is princess better now?”

Those beautiful maids straightened up their bodies as they stealthily exchanged a glance with each other. “Miss feels a bit uncomfortable. She’s…just fallen asleep!” a maid called Qinyin replied Zhang Tie in a low voice as she lowered her eyes onto the thick carpet.

Zhang Tie revealed a smile as he raised his hand. Those maids hurriedly exited the outer room by moving backward before closing the door from outside.

Zhang Tie unveiled the bead curtain before entering Bai Suxian’s warm bedroom.

All the furnishings inside this bedroom were arranged by Bai Suxian’s subordinates according to her daily needs and habits.

The bead curtain of this bedroom was completely made of perfect top-class deep-sea jade beads whose diameter was about 1.6 cm. The ground of the bedroom was paved with 6.7 cm-thick golden goose velvet. Even the toad-shaped violet golden copper furnace was exclusive for airboat. No matter how the airboat fly, the copper furnace would not turn over. Guanghan osmanthus flower charcoal as expensive as gold was burning inside the copper furnace after being treated specially. Everything inside this room could meet the daily needs of the princess of Lord Guangnan’s Mansion.

Lying on the snow-white bed, Bai Suxian’s back was facing the door while her body was covered with an extremely thin quilt, manifesting the exquisite and undulating curve from her waist to her butt.

She was breathing evenly. Her enchanting face was reflected in the copper mirror. In a night skirt, she put one hand under her head with closed eyes, exposing half plump breasts as if she had really fallen asleep while feeling a bit uncomfortable.

After coming to the bedside, Zhang Tie sat down. After gazing at her plump butt under the thin quilt for a short while, Zhang Tie put one hand into the thin quilt and started to touch her naked body.

Only after a short while, Bai Suxian’s face had turned redder while she started to breathe heavily. After a few more seconds, Bai Suxian who had been gritting her teeth finally couldn’t stand uttering “Argh” lightly.

“I was told that you felt a bit uncomfortable. How about my therapy? How do you feel now?” Zhang Tie asked with a smile.

…

Zhang Tie stayed in Bai Suxian’s room for a whole day. On the 2nd day, he left her room in high spirits. Bai Suxian became as tame as before in front of Zhang Tie. With a happy look, she was in a pretty good mood.

Zhang Tie didn’t explain anything to Bai Suxian, because he knew that women needed to be convinced; instead of being explained.

Did a man have to report to his wife about his plan when he wanted to do something? Of course not!

Zhang Tie just told Bai Suxian that he would take her back home in Youzhou Province to pay a formal visit to his parents. After hearing that promise, Bai Suxian became tame at once.

Zhang Tie then started to preach his 2nd batch of disciples with Fire Dragon Sutra through enlightenment…

…

Those male disciples received enlightenment smoothly. After doing that to Liu Xing and the other 6 disciples, Zhang Tie had been familiar with this process; therefore, he finished this process in a higher efficiency.

Not until the first female disciple Qian Bingbing received the enlightenment did he meet a bit trouble.

During the process of enlightenment, Zhang Tie needed to touch their heads. Although Qian Bingbing was one of the most outstanding disciples of Zhang Tie and the most acceptable elder sister among those female disciples, she was also the most troublesome one when in enlightenment. Each time Zhang Tie touched her head, Qian Bingbing’s face would turn red with unstable and uneasy qi. Zhang Tie had tried for a few times yet met the same problem.

“Ignore everything; stay concentrated…” As Zhang Tie’s sound drifted into Qian Bingbing’s mind through a secret method of Bloody Soul Temple, Qian Bingbing’s finally became stable spiritually as she closed her eyes and slowly entered the state.

Zhang Tie put his palm onto Qian Bingbing’s forehead once again.

Qian Bingbing’s forehead felt as icy as her name while being covered with fine sweat drops although being a bit hot just now…

After the process, Qian Bingbing opened her eyes as she watched Zhang Tie who was sitting opposite with complex sparkling eyes. After that, she bit her lips as she put her hands onto her forehead and approached her forehead to the ground in an extremely respectful manner as a disciple, “Master, thanks for paving the steps towards the universal laws for Bingbing…”

“It’s fine, call in Huang Chongyang…”

“Yes, Master!”

Qian Bingbing stood up before leaving the back room.

Watching Qian Bingbing’s back, Zhang Tie looked a bit weird as he sighed inside, ‘Qian Bingbing is really a smart girl. After being preached with Fire Dragon Sutra, she called herself Bingbing in front of me, in which way, she had drawn herself closer to me.’

Closely after that, Zhang Tie shook his head as he revealed a faint smile, ‘Perhaps, I’ve thought too much. Girls always like to call themselves in that way…’

…

On December 6th, Iron-Dragon Airboat arrived at Xiushan Prefecture of Zhenzhou Province. After converging with Mountain Lifting Hermit over there, Iron-Dragon Airboat headed for Youzhou Province…
