Castle of Black Iron

1112 The Long-Lost Fruit

3 hours later, when Zhang Tie and Bai Suxian returned to the manor of Lord Guangnan in Xuanyuan Hill, it was already dark...

They returned by an alcohol-driven taxi in Xuanyuan Hill. It was pretty prosperous with night lamplight outside the vehicle as if it was a city with gay nightlife. In the vehicle, Bai Suxian was in a low mood since she got on the vehicle. Watching the night scenery outside the vehicle, she might be thinking about something quietly.

Although Yue Peng had been ferociously beaten by Zhang Tie, the scar that he caused on Bai Suxian could not recover in a short period.

Zhang Tie knew women pretty well. Any woman needed to be quiet sometimes no matter how active she was; any woman would feel helpless no matter how firm she was. Therefore, he didn't say anything at this moment. Instead, he just let Bai Suxian lean against his shoulder quietly as he watched the heavy traffic on the road.

Bai Suxian might be thinking about her former emotional experiences.

By contrast, although Zhang Tie also watched the nightscape outside the vehicle, he was imagining about the scenery in the emperor's imperial city of Xuanyuan Hill.

During these days in Xuanyuan Hill, Zhang Tie had received many bits of intelligence. He felt like a spider who was weaving a net silently in the dark. He was thinking about overthrowing the very person, who assumed one of the 9 ministers in Taixia Country, the master of Gold and Power Law and the founder of Heavens Reaching Church. It would be better if he could kill that b*stard so as to inflict a heavy loss to his force and the Gobbling Party at the same time.

With such a powerful opponent in heart, Zhang Tie had long forgotten about the trouble caused by the male knight of the Heavens Holding Pavilion.

In the past, if he offended a knight of the Heavens Holding Pavilion, it would be a major event which would make him sleepless overnight and lose his appetite. By contrast, it was just a small trouble for Zhang Tie. From the beginning, Zhang Tie had kept an eye on him. All of his movements were under Zhang Tie's control.

Perhaps, Zhang Tie had not realized that he was already different than before. He gradually had a domineering profound temperament which common knights would feel awe-stricken about. It was also possessed by many provincial governors and Cheji generals across Taixia Country. Without such a fierce and dignified temperament, how could an earth knight dominate a province of Taixia Country, order so many black iron knights and frighten so many earth knights?

When the vehicle arrived at the gate of the manor of Lord Guangnan's Mansion in Xuanyuan Hill where some red lanterns were hanging in the nightscape, brightening up the surroundings of the gate. Zhang Tie tossed a gold coin towards the driver and told him to keep the changes. Closely after that, he opened the door and got off the vehicle with Bai Suxian.

Watching Zhang Tie and Bai Suxian coming back, some guards outside the gate hurriedly opened the gate and greeted them.

During the period when Zhang Tie was in this manor, all the people in this manor almost treated him as the would-be son-in-law of Lord Guangnan very respectfully.

Soon after the two people entered the gate, Uncle Zhong had come forward to greet them.

These days, with the effect of Zhang Tie's first prescription, Uncle Zhong felt pretty good as the toxicity of the broken-gold witchcraft parasites inside his body was restricted for the first time. He didn't cough any more; additionally, his face blushed. He looked much better spiritually. Therefore, he started to be more confident about Zhang Tie's prescription.

At the sight of Bai Suxian's fatigued look and the big hole on Zhang Tie's back, Uncle Zhong was startled too much as he changed his face at once, "Ahh, Miss, Childe Cui, what happened?"

"Nothing. We met a blind b*stard. Uncle Zhong, do you know the residence of Heavens Holding Pavilion in Xuanyuan Hill?" Zhang Tie asked with a smile.

"Yes, I know!"

"Uncle Zhong, after a while, please have someone send this clothes to Heavens Holding Pavilion. Just have him tell them that it's from Fire Dragon Hermit!"

There was a huge hole in the back of Zhang Tie's clothes which was caused by Yue Peng's punch. Wise people would understand what happened at the sight of this hole. Actually, Zhang Tie intended to cause such a huge hole in the back of his clothes purposefully.

If a black iron knight dared attack an earth knight from his back on his own initiative, it was nothing different than seeking for death in any place, not to mention in Xuanyuan Hill. Sending his clothes to Heavens Holding Pavilion, Zhang Tie wanted to let them know that he had shown his mercy to Yue Peng today. Heavens Holding Pavilion had to accept this result whatsoever.

Although Heavens Holding Pavilion was something, they could never have a subordinate black iron knight bully an earth knight casually. Even the imperial households of Taixia Country could not do that, not to mention the Heavens Holding Pavilion. An earth knight could determine the fates of hundreds of millions of people in some subcontinents. How could an earth knight be easily humiliated?

After hearing Zhang Tie's words, Uncle Zhong understood what happened approximately. He nodded before glancing at Bai Suxian for a couple of times, "Miss, do you want a supper today?"

"No need. I'm a bit tired. I want to take a rest in my room!" Bai Suxian told Uncle Zhong and Zhang Tie. After saying that, she revealed a smile towards Zhang Tie in a reluctant way, "You've not eaten food yet; if you want, go have some. I have no appetite today!"

"Let bygones be bygones. Never mind. After one day's torture, you'd better have a good rest!" Zhang Tie told her as he patted Bai Suxian's fragrant shoulder twice.

"Hmm..."

When they talked, they had arrived at a fountain in the manor. Bai Suxian's courtyard was on the other side; therefore, after noticing Zhang Tie and Uncle Zhong, she returned to her room alone.

Watching Bai Suxian's back, Uncle Zhong's eyes were full of concern. Bai Suxian was pretty happy these days. Why did she suddenly become unhappy today?

"What happened to Miss?" Uncle Zhong asked Zhang Tie about that directly.

Touching his bald head, Zhang Tie replied, "Nothing, just let her stay alone for some time..."

"Was she offended by people of Heavens Holding Pavilion?" Uncle Zhong asked out of a bit fury, "Our Lord Guangnan's Mansion could not be bullied by others in Taixia Country. In the south border of Taixia Country, our Lord Guangnan was awarded over 100 cities. Additionally, Lord Guangnan has tens of millions of guards and over 100 knights as well as many friends and relatives. Furthermore, we have relief in the imperial court. We're not afraid of Heavens Holding Pavilion at all!"

"That son of a b*tch is too immoral verbally. I broke his teeth and limbs. Additionally, we met Fang Xinyi today. I'm afraid that Bai Suxian felt unhappy as she recalled what happened in the past. Don't worry, she will soon be fine!"

After hearing Zhang Tie's words, Uncle Zhong seemingly thought about something. He faintly opened his mouth yet said nothing.

Zhang Tie guessed that Uncle Zhong must know something about the reason. However, as Bai Suxian didn't tell him about the reason, Uncle Zhong felt it was inconvenient to talk about it.

"Childe Cui, do you need me to have supper sent to your room?"

"No need, thanks, I have no appetite either. I want to cultivate in my room..."

"There's an exclusive cultivation room in the manor!"

"No need, I will just stay in my own room. It won't take me too much time!"

"Alright, I will tell others to not disturb Childe Cui's cultivation!"

It was really normal for a knight to cultivate. Therefore, after being told that Zhang Tie was going to cultivate in his room, of course, Uncle Zhong wouldn't suspect it.

...

There was one more huge alloy cage as large as a container on the lawn of the garden in this manor. There was a living LV 6 black spider in the cage, whose blood became the guiding drug of the first prescription that Zhang Tie wrote for Uncle Zhong.

There were some fluorite lamps surrounding the lawn. In the daytime, that alloy cage was covered with a thick piece of black cloth; in the evening, that piece of black cloth would be unveiled. This LV 6 black spider was guarded by 3 guards who were above LV 7 by shifts every day.

When Zhang Tie passed by it, he found a guard had just opened a window on one side of the alloy cage and dropped a living sheep inside.

The living sheep shivered due to fear while being stiff all over. In the blink of an eye, blood had sprayed in all directions inside the cage. The living sheep then became the food of the LV 6 black spider.

At the sight of the blood spraying, a thought flashed across Zhang Tie's mind...

At this moment, Zhang Tie even wanted to pound his own head.

'Stupid! I'm so stupid.'

Of course, followed by Uncle Zhong, Zhang Tie just passed by the path on one side calmly as he took in a deep breath.

Besides the smell of tender grass and fresh flowers, the fresh air in the garden also contained the bloody smell of that sheep. Meanwhile, this odor activated a memory zone in Zhang Tie's mind which had not been activated for a long time. That memory zone was filled with endless fights and deaths. Fresh blood was the forever theme of that memory zone.

...

After returning to his own room, Zhang Tie had someone give his torn clothes to Uncle Zhong before closing up his door.

Of course, Zhang Tie was not really cultivating; instead, he just called out the incarnation of the little black beetle from Castle of Balck Iron so as to take a round in the emperor's imperial city and check the situation inside. When he saw the LV 6 black spider eating the sheep alive, Zhang Tie suddenly remembered a better detective means which was better than using the incarnation of the little black beetle.

Since he promoted to a knight, as he could not gain any fruit by killing demon knights, Zhang Tie almost forgot that he had such a trump card——the trouble-reappearance fruit. As long as he killed an enemy, he would be able to reappear the surrounding environment in the new trouble-reappearance fruit.

Zhang Tie started his plan at once.

Speaking of his enemy, it was too simple. Zhang Tie had a lot of "backup" demonized puppets inside Castle of Black Iron.

After sensing the surrounding environment, Zhang Tie found that nobody would come here to disturb him in a short period. Therefore, he directly teleported a LV 9 demonized puppet out of Castle of Black Iron...

Pitifully, the moment the LV 9 demonized puppet was "thawed", before it figured out where it was, its head had been blown up by the battle qi which was shot out of Zhang Tie's finger. Closely after that, its corpse was thrown back into Castle of Black Iron. The entire process lasted less than 0.5 seconds...
