Castle of Black Iron
Castle of Black Iron - Chapter 1676: Handover

The formation of over 100 airboats was grand in the sky, which was barely seen even in Taixia Country.

After coming to Motian Realm for a few days, Zhang Tie had been clear about many things in this world. Take those airboats as an instance, the emblem at the fore of the airboats was a yellow triangle flag with cloud edge, in the middle of which was a pattern of a fiery unicorn.

In Motian Realm, a triangle flag with cloud edge was exclusive to immortal palaces. Only forces who had founded their own immortal palaces could use such a flag and emblem. Therefore, at the sight of the emblem, Zhang Tie had known that these airboats belonged to an immortal palace. As for the details, Zhang Tie was confused.

Zhang Tie and Ji Yuelan flew towards Heavenly Square City rapidly.

It appeared that those airboats were not here for trouble. When they arrived at Heavenly Square City, there was no trace of battle and chaos inside the city. Additionally, the call-up order from the immortal palace was not a warning. Therefore, Zhang Tie and Ji Yuelan became a bit reassured and was not in a hurry.

"Which immortal palace do these airboats belong to?"

"It should be Unicorn Immortal Palace..."

Although Ji Yuelan didn't have lotus flower eyes, she could still see clearly the emblem at the fore of the airboats within such a short distance.

"Founded by a supreme immortal general?"

"Yup!" Ji Yuelan took a look at Zhang Tie as her face had recovered. However, she looked a bit solemn, adding, "Whereas Unicorn Immortal Palace ranks top three among the 14 immortal palaces founded by supreme immortal knights. It's said that Jiang Shang the King Unicorn who founded Unicorn Immortal Palace is a king-level powerhouse who probably promoted to an immortal emperor!"

"King-level powerhouse?" Zhang Tie asked out of confusion.

"Supreme immortal general. However, after founding their immortal palaces, supreme immortal generals would be called King XX in the public. Therefore, people used to call them king-level powerhouses. Staff within the immortal palace would like to call their head immortal king. If you call their boss supreme immortal general in front of so many immortal generals, someone might be unhappy about that!"

Zhang Tie understood it right away as he said, "Oh, I see, it's verbal bribery..."

"Verbal bribery, what's that?" Ji Yuelan asked.

"Hahaha, nothing, it means to entertain someone by speaking highly of him or her..." Zhang Tie put it simply as he thought, 'Humans are the same no matter where they are. Powerhouses in this stage are called sage-level knights; however, in Motian Realm, they prefer to be called immortal kings in order to distinguish themselves from the class of immortal generals; meanwhile, it indicates that they're only one step away from immortal emperor. Similarly, in Hua officialdom, deputy directors were usually called directors in order to entertain them. The speaker said it casually with some purpose while the listener felt happy. Why not?

"If it's called verbal bribery. You have such a glib tongue. I'm afraid that nobody else could match you in it as you're bribing people all the time!" Ji Yuelan threw a glimpse at Zhang Tie.

"I don't have a glib tongue at all. Inspector Ji should have tasted it just now!"

Ji Yuelan flushed slightly as she threw a glare at Zhang Tie. Closely after that, she came to Zhang Tie's front.

Zhang Tie smiled as he followed after her easily...

Only after a short while, the two people had arrived at Heavenly Square City. Jiang Ruoxin was also flying over here from afar. She was shocked by Zhang Tie and Ji Yuelan coming back together. After looking at the two people for a second, she remained silent.

These days, Zhang Tie divided the territory outside Heavenly Square City into east, south, west and north. He stayed in the south of the city for killing time while handing the other three to Liu brothers and Jiang Ruoxin. As nothing happened, he had not seen Jiang Ruoxin for about one week. It seems that Jiang Ruoxin was also trying to stay away from Zhang Tie. As Zhang Tie didn't call her during this period of time, Jiang Ruoxin didn't come to report to Zhang Tie at all. By contrast, Liu brothers came to report to Zhang Tie honestly every day.

"What a coincidence, Siji Jiang!" Zhang Tie greeted Jiang Ruoxin jokingly.

"Hmm..." Jiang Ruoxin replied casually as she came to Ji Yuelan's side. Ignoring Zhang Tie, she directly started a talk with Ji Yuelan using her battle qi.

"Why are you together..." Jiang Ruoxin asked Ji Yuelan.

"Erm, I went for him just now. Long time no see, it feels boring. I missed him; so I went for him, why..." Ji Yuelan who talked with Zhang Tie a bit bashfully just now spoke to Jiang Ruoxin straightly.

"Do you have a physical relationship with him?" Jiang Ruoxin asked straightforwardly too.

"Stop it. If you want to do it with him, when I go for him next time, you can come with me; you could do it first!"

"Peh..."

The women talked using battle qi; however, they had not imagined that Zhang Tie had heard all of their words. It was a new ability that Zhang Tie acquired after his spiritual energy turned real. Within the range of his spiritual energy, he could hear every talks clearly even that between knights using battle qi.

As Zhang Tie pricked up his ears to hear their private chat, he pretended to look front seriously. They soon arrived at the immortal palace.

On the square of the immortal palace, many people were present. Besides Huang Baimei and Leng Manxue, Liu brothers, Zhou Baifei, Lu Tianqiang and Xun Zizhou had long arrived here. There were 14 more strangers, including 10 males and 4 females, who were all as excellent as them given their looks besides outnumbering them greatly.

Huang Baimei was talking with someone who had the almost the same qi field as him and was introducing the immortal generals of Dragon Emperor Immortal to those strangers. Zhang Tie, Ji Yuelan and Jiang Ruoxin directly entered the vision of the strange immortal generals.

Due to his pretty young age, Zhang Tie instantly attracted the attention of 10 unfamiliar immortal generals.

Huang Baimei smiled as he introduced Zhang Tie to them, "This is Deputy Head Zhang of the branch of Dragon Emperor Immortal Palace in Heavenly Square City; this is Intelligence Jiang; this is Inspector Ji..."

All the 10 strangers were immortal generals from Unicorn Immortal Palace.

A few minutes later, over 20 immortal generals of Dragon Emperor Immortal Palace and Unicorn Immortal Palace gathered in the assembly hall of the immortal palace.

"At the order of the Church of Dragon Emperor Immortal Palace, three days later, all the immortal generals of the branch of Dragon Emperor Immortal Palace in Heavenly Square City would leave here, presenting Heavenly Square City to Unicorn Immortal Palace completely..."

As Huang Baimei opened his mouth, everyone at present became dumbfounded except Leng Manxue. Closely after that, they understood it...
