Castle of Black Iron

The story of Yin-Yang Sect was absolutely a tragedy. However, the source of this tragedy was the love and hatred between some elders of Yin-Yang Sect.

Yin Canghai made a trick and took advantage of Force Emperor Immortal Palace to kill Elder Brother Luo who was more qualified to be the head of Yin-Yang Sect than him. However, Yin Canghhai had not imagined that the late Luo had already made Hua Meijuan pregnant. Although he got the throne of Yin-Yang Sect and his beloved junior sister apprentice, he had also taken Luo Huaiyu as his own son and brought him up.

Xue Yuxiu who grew up together with Luo always bore this murder case in mind. After standing it for dozens of years, she finally joined Dark Emperor Immortal Palace and completely degenerated. With the power of Dark Emperor Immortal Palace, she almost wiped out the entire Yin-Yang Sect.

Without Zhang Tie, Yin-Yang Sect might have long been exterminated. It was Zhang Tie who granted Yin-Yang Sect a bit of hope in the dilemma.

At that time, Yin-Yang Sect suffered a great loss. Besides immortal generals, all the disciples were killed. The internal contradictions of Yin-Yang Sect had been exposed. The position of Ying Canghai had long wavered. Additionally, he turned hostile against his wife and son and lost his power. Even though they were saved by Zhang Tie, the future of Yin-Yang Sect was also dark.

Zhang Tie didn’t know whether the survivors of Yin-Yang Sect could remain like before after escaping away from Si Clan’s castle; as there was still someone in Yin-Yang Sect whom he was concerned about, of course, Zhang Tie would ask about Su Haimei and Ying Feiqiong who were sitting beside him.

“Ying Canghai is already dead; so is junior sister apprentice Hua. Yin-Yang Sect has been broken apart…” Su Haimei said in a sorrowful tone as she dropped off tears at a stroke.

As Su Haimei called Ying Canghai by his name instead of his title or elder brother Ying, Zhang Tie knew that what had happened inside Yin-Yang Sect after they left Si Clan’s castle might be unpleasant. What Su Haimei said in the next proved Zhang Tie’s presumption right…

“After leaving Cyanlotus City, we escaped to Emperor NvWa City for settlement temporarily. There was no demon in Emperor NvWa City. As Dark Emperor Immortal Palace was related to demons, the powers of Dark Emperor Immortal Palace might not be able to enter Emperor NvWa City either. Additionally, Yin-Yang Sect has a secret real estate in Emperor NvWa City. The manor could serve as our asylum in an emergency. At that time, we couldn’t go anywhere but Emperor NvWa City!”

“At that time, although there’s no powers of demons or Dark Emperor Immortal Palace in Emperor NvWa City, there were still powers of Force Emperor Immortal Palace. Therefore, it was not safe even though we hid in Emperor NvWa City. Additionally, as Yuxiu had joined Dark Emperor Immortal Palace, we were not sure whether Dark Emperor Immortal Palace knew this secret real estate of Yin-Yang Sect in Emperor NvWa City. If they knew, they only needed to notice Force Emperor Immortal Palace; then all the survivors of Yin-Yang Sect would be heavily injured. At that time, Yin-Yang Sect could suffer such a loss. Therefore, Feiqiong and I held that we’d better leave Emperor NvWa City as soon as possible. Ruoxin and Yuelan said that Your Majesty would like to protect us in Dragon Emperor Big Domain. Therefore, we wanted to go to Dragon Dragon Big Domain and settle down there…”

“Yes, before Ruoxin and Yuelan left Dragon Emperor City, I had told them that the survivors of Yin-Yang Sect could go to Dragon Emperor Big Domain if they couldn’t live well in other places. I would prevent the powers of Force Emperor Immortal Palace from finding you trouble in my territory. Unexpectedly, you were also in Emperor NvWa City at that time. As I was severely injured at that time, I stayed in Tigerback Mountain for quite a long period of time…”

Motian Realm was too small. However, Emperor NvWa City was too large. Zhang Tie had not imagined that the survivors of Yin-Yang Sect and he were all in Emperor NvWa City at that time. Pitifully, they missed such an opportunity to meet each other again. Su Haimei and Ying Feiqiong were correct. On that occasion, it was indeed the best way for them to move to Dragon Emperor Big Domain.

“Ah, Your Majesty, you were also in Emperor NvWa City at that time?”

“Yes, after recognizing that Xia Yangming and Shi Zhongyu were pieces of Dark Emperor Immortal Palace in Dragon Emperor Immortal Palace, I chased after them away from Dragon Emperor Big Domain. Later on, although I killed them, I was trapped by Versatile Demon Emperor and almost lost my life. Fortunately, I survived. Therefore, I went to Emperor NvWa City for medical treatment!” Zhang Tie said as he slightly nodded. Meanwhile, he fiddled with the potatoes under the firewoods.

“We also knew that we couldn’t stay in Emperor NvWa City for long; however, after arriving at Emperor NvWa City, Ying Canghai suddenly imprisoned Meijuan and Luo Huaiyu. Additionally, he became grumpy, insolent and skeptical and didn’t take others’ advice anymore. Furthermore, he didn’t agree to leave Emperor NvWa City. Feiqiong and I couldn’t stand him anymore; therefore, we found an opportunity to save Meiuan, Luo Haiyu. Then, we left Emperor NvWa City with the other female disciples of Yin branch of Yin-Yang Sect for Dragon Emperor Big Domain!”

“Right, you’re right. But I’ve not imagined that Ying Canghai could be so…” Zhang Tie shook his head helplessly.

“I’ve not imagined that he could be that either. Before that, until the day when we left Cyanlotus City, Ying Canghai could still win our admiration as the head of Yin-Yang Sect. That was also the reason why we followed him to Emperor Nvwa City!”

“Perhaps, he was stimulated too much by what had happened that day!” Zhang Tie sighed. As the head of Yin-Yang Sect, his sect was almost exterminated. As a family owner, he was told that his beloved woman had already got pregnant by some other guy before getting married to him; then, his son became his enemy. As a man, his dignity and reputation were severely destroyed in the prison beneath Si Clan’s castle. Zhang Tie really didn’t know how many men could continue to cheer up after experiencing so many hardships. Someone might be able to do that, but Yin Canghai was not that kind of person. “What happened to you later on?”

“On the way towards Dragon Emperor Big Domain, we were chased by Ying Canghai. He wanted to take us back to Emperor NvWa City. But we didn’t. Therefore, he wanted to use force. We then went against Ying Canghai completely. As he was alone, he couldn’t defeat us all; therefore, he could only try his best to stop us. Unexpectedly, when we arrived at Feiyu Medium-sized Domain, we were discovered by Si Dan of Dark Emperor Immortal Palace. Through a fierce battle, Ying Canghai was killed by Si Dan, Meijuan was also dead. Thankfully, a power passed by at that time. When he noticed the battle, he joined the battle. In case of being besieged, Si Dan hurriedly escaped away; otherwise, we would definitely have been dead…”

“That power was a female, a head of a sect and an owner of a clan. After knowing that we were hunted by the powers of Dark Emperor Immortal Palace, she pitied us and allowed us to settle down in her city. Through her care, we finally tided over the difficulties!”

“Soon after we arrived at the female power’s city, we’ve been told that Yin-Yang Sect’s manor in Emperor NvWa City was raided by the powers of Force Emperor Immortal Palace. Most of the male disciples of Yin-Yang Sect who stayed in the manor were killed. Only very few of them survived it and disappeared from then on. After Meijuan was dead, Haiyu left alone without notice. From then on, only the yin branch of Yin-Yang Sect survived. After a few days, we heard that Infinite Immortal Hell was discovered in Mountain Ruins; however, Your Majesty disappeared in the Infinite Immortal Hell…”

“If not meet Your Majesty today, Feiqiong and I would never agree to be humiliated by Si Dan and demons and become their pieces to control the other female disciples of Yin-Yang Sect. In the worst scenario, we might have detonated our own heart meridians and died…”

When Su Haimei said it, she recalled the hardships that she had experienced over these years. Then, Su Haimei and Ying Feiqiong both lowered their heads and started to sob. They couldn’t help bursting into tears out of grief.

Zhang Tie also sighed with emotions. These females of Yin-Yang Sect were too poor.

These beauties were neither evil nor criminals. They were marked as evil and hunted all the way by Force Emperor Immortal Palace, one of the most powerful human forces in Motian Realm only because they joined a sect and cultivated a secret method. As a result, they were worried about losing their lives every day. Then, their secret method aroused the attention of Dark Emperor Immortal Palace and brought them greater troubles. Finally, the sect broke apart. As these beauties were not tolerated by both humans and demons, they were hunted wherever they were. In this occasion, they could still survive. That was really a marvel. Even God couldn’t help pitying them and sparing them an opportunity to survive themselves when in a dilemma.

Su Haimei and Ying Feiqiong had never poured out such words to anyone else before. They must have hidden it in their hearts for a long period of time. Zhang Tie didn’t comfort them verbally; instead, he just let vent their emotions. When he found that they gradually stopped weeping, Zhang Tie fiddled with the well-baked potatoes and took them out. After patting them and blowing ashes off, he gave the potatoes to them, saying, “Don’t worry. From now on, as long as I’m here, nobody dares bully you anymore across Motian Realm. I will make Force Emperor Immortal Palace terminate their order to hunt the survivors of Yin-Yang Sect…”
