Chapter 1204: Whose Choice?

Translator: WQL Editor: Aleem

‘The relationship between Huaiyuan Palace and Taiyi Fantasy Sect?’

After hearing Zhang Taixuan’s question, Zhang Tie became stunned. To be honest, Zhang Tie really didn’t know about that. He only knew that Huaiyuan Palace got along well with Taiyi Fantasy Sect. He discovered it when Lan Yunxi promoted to a knight in Taixia Fantasy Sect soon after she joined them. Besides her exceptional talent and efforts, Lan Yunxi could enjoy better cultivation resources than the other disciples in Taiyi Fantasy Sect.

“I really don’t know about the relationship between Huaiyuan Palace and Taiyi Fantasy Sect. Clan head, please go ahead!” Zhang Tie answered Zhang Taixuan frankly.

“The relationship between Huaiyuan Palace and Taiyi Fantasy Sect could date back to Lord Huaiyuan. When Lord Huaiyuan was in Taixia Country, he had some bosom friends, one of whom came from Taiyi Fantasy Sect. This was the earlier relationship between Huaiyuan Palace and Taiyi Fantasy Sect!”

“Ahh? Our forebear Lord Huaiyuan had a bosom friend in Taiyi Fantasy Sect?” Zhang Tie asked Zhang Taixuan while blinking his eyes.

“Yes, our forebear Lord Huaiyuan met that bosom friend of Taiyi Fantasy Sect when he had just promoted to a black iron knight and entered the Earth-elements Realm for practice. At that time, they were both black iron knights. Later on, Lord Huaiyuan joined God’s Will Army, one of the top 4 armies of Taixia Country and finally promoted to West Expedition General. That bosom friend of Lord Huaiyuan also made a spurt of progress and became one of the top 4 elders in Taiyi Fantasy Sect today!”

It was really out of Zhang Tie’s imagination that Huaiyuan Palace and Taiyi Fantasy Sect could have such a relationship.

“Is that bosom friend of Lord Huaiyuan Feng Yexiao?”

“Not Feng Yexiao, but the only female elder of the top 4 elders of Taiyi Fantasy Sect, Zhu Qianqian!”

‘I’ve not imagined that Lord Huaiyuan could have another female companion in Taiyi Fantasy Sect.’ At this moment, Zhang Tie felt absurd as he didn’t know whether he should cry or laugh.

Zhang Tie had already understood what Zhang Taixuan was going to talk to him. Therefore, before Zhang Taixuan mentioned it, Zhang Tie had shaken his head with a big smile as he said on his own initiative, “I know what you want to say, clan head. I will return that airboat to Taiyi Fantasy Sect. I don’t feel pitiful at all. Clan head, you could have someone take away that airboat when you’re free. It’s just an airboat!”

Zhang Taixuan watched Zhang Tie carefully and found that Zhang Tie was not lying. Therefore, he let out a sigh with emotion, “It’s good if you think so. As Taixia Country is in chaos, it’s unworthy for Huaiyuan Palace to be on unfriendly terms with Taiyi Fantasy Sect only for an airboat. It’s good for you to receive the airboat in the identity of Cui Li; however, after you recover your original identity, based on the relationship between Huaiyuan Palace and Taiyi Fantasy Sect, it’s a bit improper for you to win an airboat from Taiyi Fantasy Sect as an elder of Huaiyuan Palace!”

“I see!” Zhang Tie replied with a smile, “Since I decided to expose my real identity to the public, I’ve been considering this problem. I’m okay. After all, Yunxi is still in Taiyi Fantasy Sect. If the relationship between Taiyi Fantasy Sect and I, an elder of Huaiyuan Palace, were worsened, Yunxi might hear some gossips in Taiyi Fantasy Sect. She might be screwed by someone!”

Zhang Tie was saying sincerely. Compared to Lan Yunxi, that airboat was nothing. Zhang Tie would never make Lan Yunxi embarrassed in Taiyi Fantasy Sect only for an airboat. The airboat was nothing but a traffic tool. In Zhang Tie’s eyes, even Lan Yunxi’s one hair was more valuable than the icy airboat. When Zhang Tie spoke, he didn’t notice Zhang Taixuan’s expression. After saying that, he noticed that Zhang Taixuan looked a bit strange. Zhang Tie realized immediately that he had called Lan Yunxi in an intimate way just now. If not being in special terms with Lan Yunxi, how could Zhang Tie call her in such an intimate way?

“Erm…I’ve long known senior sister apprentice Lan in Hidden Dragon Island…later on…later on we were comrades-in-arms in Selnes Theater of Operations…erm…therefore, we’re familiar with each other…” Zhang Tie rubbed his face with an embarrassed look as he explained which sounded like nonsense.

Nobody in Huaiyuan Palace knew the love affairs between Zhang Tie and Lan Yunxi. It was like “secret” romance. Facing Zhang Taixuan, Zhang Tie felt being caught by a young girl’s father while falling in love with her.

Zhang Taixuan cleared his throat twice as he moved his eyes away from Zhang Tie’s face towards Embracing Tiger City, “Animosity is more easily defused than being formed. The misunderstanding between Taiyi Fantasy Sect and you had better be defused. I will invite Taiyi Fantasy Sect’s representatives to attend your Rotating Chakra Ceremony as a means of reconciliation. After that, they will drive away that airboat. If you need an airboat, just use mine!”

“As you wish, clan head!” Zhang Tie replied as he tried his best to recover his composure along with his red face, “Clan head, as the Youzhou provincial governor, of course, you need an airboat to keep up appearances; if I need an airboat, I could use the one in Jinwu Business Group. Never mind that, clan head!”

Zhang Yang and Bai Suxian both had an airboat. Even if he returned the airboat to Taiyi Fantasy Sect, it didn’t pose any influence to Zhang Tie. It was just a lip service if he wanted to use their airboats. Would Bai Suxian and Zhang Yang feel inconvenient about that? When he didn’t have an airboat, Zhang Tie felt that airboat was a rarity; when he had one, he found that it was just so-so. If Zhang Tie wanted an airboat, it was no exaggeration to say that people would queue up to send him airboats in a few days. Therefore, he didn’t treasure such an airboat at all. Additionally, his own flight ability and the flight ability of his pet Little Thunder were both greater than the airboat. He didn’t even need one. The airboat was just used to keep up appearances as it was a bit more comfortable than an airship.

“As the finance minister of Taixia Country, Han Zhengfang had a supreme power. Nobody knew what other plots he had made and how many landmines he had buried in Taixia Country besides bloody sea and demonized grains. They might be gradually exposed. At this moment, it’s not good for Huaiyuan Palace and Iron-Dragon Sect to be hostile against Taiyi Fantasy Sect!”

“I see, ahem..ahem…clan head, do you have anything else to talk about?” Zhang Tie felt increasingly embarrassed the longer he stayed beside Zhang Taixuan. He couldn’t wait to leave.

“Nothing else. We are just having a free chat. Elder Mushen, do you have anything else?”

“I’ve promised my mom to have supper tonight!” Zhang Tie replied seriously.

After hearing Zhang Tie’s words, Zhang Taixuan’s eyebrows jumped up as he was almost choked. However, he still nodded as he said kindly, “If so, I will not waste your time, Elder Mushen…I hope Elder Mushen does not forget about the Rotating Chakra Ceremony!”

“It’s good…erm…I will leave then…see you!” After saying that, Zhang Tie had disappeared before Zhang Taixuan replied. Closely after that, with some sparkles in the sky, he disappeared into the sky.

Zhang Taixuan looked at the direction where Zhang Tie was heading for as he unconsciously stroke that odd-looking colorful finger ring with a faintly bizarre look. At the same time, he murmured, “Yunxi…Yunxi…”

Not until Zhang Tie flew hundreds of miles away from Embracing Tiger City and was blown by a strong night cold wind did he recover from that slightly embarrassed and flurried state when he discovered that he had deviated from the right direction a bit.

Zhang Tie shook his head as he revealed a bitter smile. When you did something stealthily, you would also feel guilty, whether old or young, strong or weak. When he realized that Zhang Taixuan might have guessed the love affairs between him and Lan Yunxi, Zhang Tie had become a bit flurried. Zhang Tie recalled that he really had not bullied Lan Yunxi besides failing to occupy the “shortcut leading to the soul” of Lan Yunxi. Zhang Tie believed that Lan Yunxi would not tell Zhang Taixuan about that experience. ‘I really don’t know why I am so flurried.’

After mocking himself for a while, Zhang Tie adjusted his direction and flew towards Jinwu City.

The intelligence that Zhang Tie received from Embracing Tiger City made him realize the possible dangerous situation facing Taixia Country in the future.

‘If a famine and civil strife really break out in Taixia Country on a large scale, what should I do?’

Zhang Tie was thinking about it on the way towards Jinwu City.

The answer to this question made Zhang Tie understand one law once again, namely, he was not God even if he had Castle of Black Iron. In such a general trend which couldn’t be resisted by individuals, he could only save as more people as possible.

If he had enough time, he could indeed do a lot of things with Castle of Black Iron. The problem was that Heavens Reaching Church and demons didn’t spare too much time to Taixia Country at all. ‘If I were Han Zhengfang, I would detonate the crisis of demonized grains in the last 1 or 2 years. When the crisis of demonized grains ferments, I would detonate the catastrophe of bloody figures. The two forces would definitely be terrifyingly destructive to Taixia Country. By then, Taixia Country might have long been chaotic. However, I disrupted the plan of Han Zhengfang and demons carelessly and had the catastrophe of bloody figures break out in advance.’

“Based on the land-building speed of Castle of Black Iron, when Taixia Country become completely chaotic as a whole, Castle Lord could teleport more people into Castle of Black Iron. Those entering Castle of Black Iron could at least not be starved to death. Additionally, many grains are stored in Castle of Black Iron. Castle Lord has the optimal mutated grain seeds in the world. The overall chaotic situation of Taixia Country might mean a chance for Castle Lord…”

Heller’s voice sounded in Zhang Tie’s mind sea which sounded a bit strange…

Zhang Tie shook his head as he told Heller, “Such a chance is too miserable for commoners. I don’t want such a chance…”

“It’s not you who chose this age, but this age had chosen you…”
