Castle of Black Iron

After hearing a long yowl from the Suzerain’s Pavilion, two disciples of Iron-Dragon Sect who looked sad and sighed just now were shocked at the sight of the thunder hawk, the majestic and handsome immortal totem of Iron-Dragon Sect landing in a courtyard in front of them.

“Su…suzerain…” the two disciples stammered in unison while the other one was rubbing his eyes as he thought there was something wrong with his eyes.

These days, Iron-Dragon Sect as a whole was in sorrow because there were so many gossips about missing Zhang Tie such as Zhang Tie had been assassinated or had fallen in the hand of demons, etc.. As a result, all the members in Iron-Dragon Sect from elders to disciples were worried about Zhang Tie.

When Zhang Tie was here, they felt that Zhang Tie didn’t care about the sect at all as if it was not necessary for him to be there at all. However, when Zhang Tie disappeared, everybody suddenly realized that Zhang Tie was the pillar of Iron-Dragon Sect. Without Zhang Tie, Iron-Dragon Sect would not exist virtually anymore.

“Notice the other elders of Iron-Dragon Sect that I’ve been back and will go to the palace after a while…” Zhang Tie told the two deacons calmly. The two deacons recovered their composure at once before running outside.

“Suzerain is back…Suzerain is back…” the two deacons shouted as they ran. One of them fell down when he passed the threshold. After picking himself up, he continued to rush out while screaming. The other deacon rushed towards the bell tower of Xuantian Peak.

Such screams were usually forbidden, except at that moment.

“Aiyun, how do you feel now?” Zhang Tie asked Ma Aiyun tenderly with a concerned look.

Ma Aiyun had completely recovered physically and spiritually. However, her face still looked a bit pale and was in a trance. She still didn’t reveal any smile even back in Iron-Dragon Sect.

“Ahh, I…I’m fine…”

Ma Aiyun didn’t make any response until Zhang Tie repeated it.

“You need a good rest. I will deal with the rest. Don’t worry…” Zhang Tie looked straight in Ma Aiyun’s eyes solemnly as he pinched her hand.

After having Ma Aiyun take a rest in the Suzerain’s Pavilion, Zhang Tie went to the palace. At this moment, the bell sound reverberated from the bell tower on the Xuantian Peak for nine times, followed by the rune bells on the other peaks. The entire sect was shocked.

“Who’s ringing the main bell on Xuantian Peak at this moment? You need to be severely punished according to the rules…” a figure flew towards Xuantian Peak after his furious rebuke.

After saying that, Lin Huanxi caught sight of Zhang Tie who was standing outside the palace, hands behind. Zhang Tie was also looking at her.

If not being a knight, Lin Huanxi might have already fallen down due to such a sheer shock. Lin Huanxi didn’t believe that Zhang Tie was back even when she was arriving at the gate of the palace.

However, it was Zhang Tie right at the gate of the palace, whose look and temperament could absolutely not be imitated by others. Even if a shadow demon could imitate Zhang Tie’s look, it could never imitate his temperament. Those knights who were familiar with Zhang Tie could identify him immediately.

“Su…Suzerain, you’re back…” Lin Huanxi was completely shocked like common disciples of Iron-Dragon Sect as a knight.

“Hmm, I’m back. Are you guarding Iron-Dragon Sect alone? Thank you for that. Where are other people?”

Lin Huanxi tried to recover her composure as she replied, “As suzerain was missing these days, Mountain Lifting Hermit and Zhongming were looking for you outside. Young sister apprentice Suxian is accompanying your parents in the courtyard at the foot of the mountain…”

“My parents are at the foot of the mountain? Are they okay…” Zhang Tie let out a sigh of relief when he heard that his parents were right in the courtyard at the foot of the mountain.

“They’re fine. On the night when suzerain disappeared, Jinwu City was a bit chaotic. Later on, the chaos was pacified. Suzerain’s elder brother then moved your family to Fire-Dragon Bounty Territory and had them live in the courtyard at the foot of the mountain for the time being!” Lin Huanxi put it straight.

Zhang Tie nodded as he said, “I’ve lost my remote-sensing finger ring and couldn’t contact the other elders. Notice them that I’ve come back safe and sound. When you’re all at present, I will tell you what happened to me these days!”

“Hmm!” Lin Huanxi replied as she watched Zhang Tie. With sensitive senses, she could still identify that Zhang Tie was a bit different than before. Whereas, she couldn’t tell the details. After a few days, Zhang Tie’s eye light and qi turned much more profound. Previously, she wouldn’t feel any stress when Zhang Tie looked at her calmly; instead, she could feel sunshine and warmth from Zhang Tie’s eyes. By contrast, this time, being gazed by Zhang Tie’s black pupils, she felt a bit stress unconsciously even though Zhang Tie looked calm.

Lin Huanxi didn’t know what happened to Zhang Tie these days. However, apparently, Zhang Tie had changed greatly.

Soon after Zhang Tie had a short talk with Lin Huanxi, another white shadow had arrived.

“Hubby…”

At the sight of Zhang Tie, Bai Suxian immediately put herself into Zhang Tie’s arms like a baby swallow returning to the nest. She closely hugged Zhang Tie as she cried heavily.

Not until Bai Suxian almost finished her tears and raised her watery eyes and wanted to say something to him did Zhang Tie pat her back and hold her hand, saying, “It’s all right. I’m fine. I will tell you what happened to me these days when the other elders are at present. Let’s go downhill and take a look at my parents first. They must be concerned about me too much these days…”

Bai Suxian nodded as she wiped off her tears and flew downhill with Zhang Tie.

Although Zhang Tie had lost the flight ability as a knight, he could still drive the wind after activating his bloodline “Lietse Driving the Wind”. Although he couldn’t fly as fast as a knight, being held by Bai Suxian, he could still fly together with Bai Suxian. Zhang Tie felt like a feather, which was even easier than flying a kite.
