“Ahh, Xuanyuan Hill is really as prosperous as that in legends…” Zhang Tie’s dad couldn’t stand to exclaim as he watched the buildings on both sides of the road through the window.
“Dad, mom, you could have a nice journey in Xuanyuan Hill. There’re so many scenic spots and historical sites such as Heavenly Harp Lake, Heavenly Fairy Lake and Heavenly Music Lake outside the city and Golden Water River and Peach Mountain in the city. Many major human agencies are located in Xuanyuan Hill. Additionally, you could pay a visit to Gold and Power Market where you could see sorts of rarities from all the other continents and subcontinents. I always wanted to accompany you for a journey in Xuanyuan Hill and here’s the chance…” Zhang Tie told his parents with a smile as he pointed at a huge complex which was hundreds of meters in height outside the window and said, “Look, dad, it’s Human Pharmacists Union…”
“Oh, that’s Human Pharmacists Union, I could…ahem, ahem…” Zhang Tie’s dad suddenly stopped as he found Zhang Tie’s mom gazing at him distantly with a strong killing qi.
Zhang Tie comforted her mom with a smile, “Mom, I’m fine. No need to worry about me. As you and dad finally got a chance to travel to Xuanyuan Hill, we would take a trip around this place!”
“Is that Yan Feiqing the very one whom you’re about to marry?” Zhang Tie’s mom whispered.
“Yes!” Zhang Tie threw a glance at the vehicle in front of them. His mom might not know that such a short distance indicated that Yan Feiqing could hear their dialogue clearly. “Qing’er and I met in the theater of operations. We went through thick and thin together and stayed in the tower of time for 6 decades. We’ve already got married privately. How do you feel about her, mom?”
“This girl has a good figure and a nice look. She has outstanding temperament too. She must be able to deliver healthy babies. Even your mom has not seen many girls like her. Now that you like her, your dad and I like her too, but…” Zhang Tie’s mom became hesitant for a second before asking Zhang Tie in a low voice, “Zhang Yang said this girl has a greater battle strength even than the total of that of your former wives and concubines. Even Suxian couldn’t defeat her. Is she a heavenly knight and an owner of a major sect in Taixia Country?”
“True, Qing’er is a heavenly knight and the owner of Fantasy Women Palace, Cloud Dream Mountain, Wuzhou Province, Taixia Country!”
“Does a heavenly knight have a greater battle strength than Commander Cheng?”
“Yes, she has a bit greater battle strength than Commander Cheng…”
“I observed her carefully, yet I couldn’t see through her real age. It’s said that the higher level a knight was, the elder she would be. Have you asked her real age…”
“Ahem, ahem, mom, I’ve really not asked her about that!” Zhang Tie kneaded his nose as he replied with a smile. In case of embarrassment, Zhang Tie dared not tell his parents that Yan Feiqing shared the times with Lord Huaiyuan. No matter what, Yan Feiqing remained young in front of him. Therefore, Zhang Tie didn’t ever ask her about her real age. “No matter what, given her look, she’s almost as young as Linda and Olina. Therefore, you’d better not care about that. No matter what, she’s my wife and your daughter-in-law. Additionally, she has sound health and could still give birth to babies. In a couple of years, I will bring you some more grandsons…”
“She could still give birth to babies?” Zhang Tie’s mom asked.
“Yes, she could…” Zhang Tie nodded forcefully.
“That’s fine. That’s fine…” Zhang Tie’s mom finally became reassured as she continued, “How do you feel now…”
“I’ve already recovered. It’s not a big deal. According to some gossips, I don’t have a complete skin all over. Don’t believe in that…” Zhang Tie patted his chest as if he was strong, causing loud sounds “Pah, pah”. Finding that Zhang Tie had a good look and was as strong as before, Zhang Tie’s parents finally became reassured.
Actually, Zhang Tie’s physical condition was classified. Besides Bai Suxian, Yan Feiqing, the three national doctors and the crown prince who knew Zhang Tie’s current physical condition, the public was told that Zhang Tie had completely recovered for the sake of humans in the holy war. This would frighten demons greatly and extremely arouse the morale of Taixia Country as a whole.
A divine dominator who had completely recovered could even frighten a heavenly demon knight.
A few months ago, Zhang Tie killed a heavenly demon knight by striking it 9 times with a rod; after that, he killed 5 shadow demon knights and consumed a thunder of nirvana. At least it was equal to saving a heavenly human knight indirectly. Zhang Tie’s survival would definitely frighten demons a lot. After Zhang Tie exposed his ability as a divine dominator, the entire demon camp and the territory occupied by demons had almost been open to him freely unless sage-level demon knights. Even a solo heavenly demon knight might be killed by Zhang Tie in a short period, not to mention other knights below heavenly knights. Therefore, the demon army’s offensive pace was disrupted by Zhang Tie. As a result, demons had to revamp their measures for defending the regions that they had occupied and the use of demon knights. Besides Weishui River had thawed, this was also a major reason for the human army and demon army to be in a stalemate.
It was no exaggeration to say that Zhang Tie himself almost curbed the aggressive attack of demon army at the bank of Weishui River and heavily crashed the demon army for the first time in Taixia Country. As was commented by Zuoqiu Mingyue——Without General Mushen, Weishui River would remain dark like long night forever!
“Elder Muyuan said you’re a divine dominator…” Zhang Tie’s dad finally got a chance to ask Zhang Tie out of curiosity after Zhang Tie’s mom finished the “important” question. Zhang Ping knew what were knights. However, he had no idea about divine dominators. Therefore, he had long wanted to ask Zhang Tie about that.
Elder Muyuan got off the airboat in the end. When Zhang Tie greeted his parents and wives, Elder Muyuan stood on Zhang Yang’s side. He just nodded towards Zhang Tie without talking too much with him. At this moment Elder Muyuan was sitting in the same vehicle with Zhang Yang and Zhang Tie’s kids.
“Yes, I’m a divine dominator. It’s a profession that I’ve advanced previously. It’s one of my trump cards. I had to expose it while fighting demons above the bank of Weishui River…”
“Is a divine dominator something?”
“Of course, it’s what your son uses to stay alive!” Zhang Tie said with great confidence.
“Can you explain it in details?” Zhang Tie’s dad asked out of curiosity. Even Zhang Tie’s mom turned around and watched Zhang Tie seriously.
Zhang Tie replied with a smile, “If your son wants to kill someone below knight, I only need to throw a glance at him or her…”
“Cut the crap…” Zhang Tie’s dad pretended to be serious as he had not imagined that he only got a “joke” as a reply. He then flicked at Zhang Tie’s head as he said, “Don’t cheat me. How could you kill a person only by throwing a glance at him or her…”
Zhang Tie remained smiling, “When mom throws a glance at you, dad always stay still.”
Zhang Tie’s dad blushed slightly as he coughed, “Ahem, ahem…when?”
“Almost like that…” Zhang Tie’s mom said.
When this topic was shifted to a domestic affair, Zhang Tie’s dad and mom both felt that Zhang Tie was joking with them…
…
In another vehicle where Zhang Tie’s wives and concubines were in, Yan Feiqing showed her strong qi field as a heavenly knight and confirmed her principal position in the hearts of the other wives and concubines of Zhang Tie’s with only one question.
In that limo, Yan Feiqing looked around the other women calmly as she told them using her battle qi.
“Zhang Tie is now the pillar of Zhang family. He’s responsible for all-purpose medicament and Fiery Oil and Fiery-Dragon Bounty Territory of Zhang family. It’s in the holy war. It’s full of uncertainties like what Zhang Tie has experienced these months. If something happened to Zhang Tie, the pillar of the Zhang family would fall. By then, nobody else in Huaiyuan Palace would be able to protect these things of Zhang family, not to mention Zhang family itself. Zhang family’s all-purpose medicament and Fiery Oil would attract numerous hungry wolves. You and the kids of you and Zhang Tie might deteriorate to miserable situations. This is the survival of law in troubled times, which is dominated by battle strength. As for me, you might have already known. I’m the principal wife of Zhang Tie and Zhang family is my family. You’re my sisters and Zhang Tie’s kids are my kids. Even if Zhang Tie fell one day, I would also be able to protect this family from being invaded by foreign forces and ensure that Zhang kids could grow up and inherit the undertakings of Zhang family. Do you want to call me elder sister?”
The carriage was in silence for a few seconds. Even Bai Suxian who always had contradictions with Yan Feiqing admitted that Yan Feiqing was telling the truth. In this age, a heavenly knight’s battle strength and influence were undeniable.
After hearing Yan Feiqing’s words, Aimei and Aixue exchanged a glance with the others before lowering their heads towards Yan Feiqing and saying, “Elder sister, we’re Aimei and Aixue…”
“Elder sister…” Linda, Beverly and Fiona also admitted in a few seconds.
Among Zhang Tie’s wives and concubines, only Bai Suxian had a great background. All the others had to depend on Zhang Tie, except for Yan Feiqing.
As Zhang Tie had many wives and concubines, he might not feel pitiful lacking one; however, if Zhang Tie fell, Zhang family would be in great danger. In this world, there were very few heavenly knights. With Yan Feiqing’s help, Zhang family could be much safer in troubled times. Yan Feiqing believed that those women were not too stupid to call her elder sister and admit her principal status in the Zhang family.
Yan Feiqing threw a glance at Bai Suxian. Bai Suxian also lowered her head as she called again in a different mood, “Elder sister…”
At this moment, Bai Suxian realized that she would be repelled out of the circle of Zhang Tie’s women if she didn’t admit Yan Feiqing’s principal status in Zhang family, which would be much worse than lowering her head in front of Yan Feiqing.
As she couldn’t match Yan Feiqing on battle strength, Bai Suxian had to lower her head in front of Yan Feiqing even though she was a princess.
…
The fleet passed by many prosperous streets and finally entered the emperor’s imperial city through the Sheep Bridge over Golden Water River and returned to Qianji Manor.
Even though Zhang Tie’s parents, wives and concubines had seen the world, they were still shocked by the magnificence of Qianji Manor.
After knowing that Qianji Manor was a former royal garden and was gifted to Zhang Tie by the crown prince, Zhang Tie’s dad felt intense as he asked, “Erm…I was told that the land in Xuanyuan Hill is worth a lot. Would it be too luxurious for us to live here…”
“Trust me, dad, if mom and you come to Xuanyuan Hill in the future, you could live here for as long as you like!” Zhang Tie explained as he burst into laughter.
Compared to Zhang Ping’s intense look, Zhang Tie’s kids were pretty thrilled about this new environment. After getting off the vehicle, they had been running here and there.
“It was younger sister Suxian who has been preparing for domestic affairs these days. How about having younger sister Suxian show these younger sisters their courtyards and rooms? It’s a long trip. You must have a lot of inconvenience on the airboat. How about getting washed before having supper together?”
After getting off the vehicle, Zhang Tie found that Yan Feiqing’s qi field grew much stronger while the other women respected Yan Feiqing pretty much; they even called her elder sister. Even Bai Suxian became much more docile in front of her.
Zhang Tie’s mom kept glancing at Yan Feiqing stealthily. After finding that Yan Feiqing could manage the other wives and concubines and arrange everything orderly like how a principal wife should behave, Zhang Tie’s mom was very satisfied too as she said, “Hmm, just do as Feiqing said. I’m a bit tired. We’d better take some rest before having supper…”
After Zhang Tie’s mom opened her mouth, it was fixed.
After everybody else settled down, Zhang Tie came to Zhang Yang’s room. After a brief chat, Zhang Tie pushed a gold crate in front of Zhang Yang.
“What’s this?” Zhang Yang asked as he watched that crate out of curiosity.
“The fruit of cross-realm flower couldn’t be taken directly. I will give some to you after having people deal with them so that elder brother could satisfy my elder sisters-in-law. It’s something of abyss dragon lizard inside this crate. With it, elder brother would definitely keep one night stand no matter how many wives and concubines you have…”
Zhang Yang widely opened his eyes as he said, “Abyss dragon lizard? Doesn’t it only exist in legends? Is it the penis of an abyss dragon lizard…”
“Right, I found it in the underground magma. What an able pharmacist, elder brother!” Zhang Tie replied with a smile as he blinked his eyes, “I even prepared a piece for our dad. I wonder whether dad will appreciate me or not…”
“Watch out, mom would beat your head if she finds out!” Zhang Yang smiled.
“Don’t worry. I won’t let her know!”
“Have you received the invitation for the national banquet from the crown prince?” Zhang Yang asked Zhang Tie suddenly.
“What? You’ve also got one?” Zhang Tie became stunned.
“I received it when I replenished materials in Lingzhou Province two days ago. The crown prince had someone wait in Lingzhou Province in order to give the invitation card to me. Both Elder Muyuan and our parents received one too. It’s very considerate!” Zhang Yang watched Zhang Tie as he said, “We all share your glory, I wonder about your opinion?”
“Let nature take its course. At least the crown prince treats me considerately as of now. It’s not bad for the crown prince to supervise the national affairs. By far, even if Meng Shidao became prime minister, I wouldn’t fear that!” Zhang Tie said with an arrogant smile, “I’m not even afraid of abyss king and hundreds of thousands of demon knights, not to mention the Gobbling Party. I believe that the crown prince would balance the gains and losses and restrict the Gobbling Party to a certain degree…”
“Hmm, I see!” Zhang Yang nodded.
After that, Zhang Tie came to his parents’ room and gave the same gift to his dad. Then, he came to Elder Muyuan’s room. After a brief talk with Elder Muyuan, he learned about the current situation facing Youzhou Province and Huaiyuan Palace and left the same gift to Elder Muyuan before returning to his own courtyard and meeting Yan Feiqing.
…
“Husband, I want a baby too!” Yan Feiqing tightly hugged Zhang Tie the moment she saw Zhang Tie as she whispered and turned into a tender woman in Zhang Tie’s arms once again.
“Ahh, why…” Zhang Tie was amazed.
“When I saw you play with your kids, I suddenly realized that my life would be incomplete as a woman if I don’t give birth to a baby for you!” Yan Feiqing’s eyes turned enchanting as she asked, “You told your mom in the vehicle that you wanted me to deliver some more kids for you. Did you cheat her?”
“Of course not!”
“I want now!”
“Now?”
“Now!”
Zhang Tie immediately cradled Yan Feiqing and strode towards the building where the other women were arranged in.
“Ahh, not over there…” Yan Feiqing shouted in Zhang Tie’s arms. After knowing what Zhang Tie was going to do, her face turned red at once.
“You’re good sisters. Of course, you should share good things together…” Zhang Tie smirked, ignoring Yan Feiqing’s symbolic struggle, and entering the building…
