Castle of Black Iron

As the fluid of fruits of redemption from the gratitude of golden uangs turned into bizarre pure and rich strength, it steadily spread over Zhang Tie's body and integrated with Zhang Tie's muscles, bones, meridians and blood vessels, increasing his strength unconsciously.

When Liu brothers came back and knocked at his door, the day had completely broken. By then, Zhang Tie had already digested the three fruits of redemption from the gratitude of golden uangs and a fruit of redemption from the gratitude of hairy shells. As a result, he gained over 200 kgs more strength. In addition, his defensive ability and striking-resistant ability strengthened by 1.6% respectively. In a short period of time, Zhang Tie had made a small stride.

That was got to be Zhang Tie. Within one or two hours, the others only made a trip around; however, Zhang Tie had grown a bit stronger even though he was just sitting there quietly. Gradually, the strength of the fruits flew into Zhang Tie's body like trickles and enabled him to compete with semi-sage level knights or sage-level knights without fear.

After the door was opened, Liu brothers hurriedly pushed in. With a faint flush, the brothers kept rubbing their hands as they couldn't cover their excitement.

"Do you take them back?" Zhang Tie asked with a smile.

"Yup!" Liu Meng replied as he nodded and gave the space-teleportation finger ring which he had been clutching tightly back to Zhang Tie.

Given their perceptive abilities, of course, the two brothers couldn't find Zhang Tie's change only after such a short period of time.

After taking the ring, Zhang Tie injected some spiritual energy into it as he saw eight huge sealed, locked iron boxes. He then nodded, asking, "Were you safe on the way?"

"Yup!" Liu Yong replied with a nod, "Oh, when we came back, we met Jiang Ruoxin and Ji Yuelan coming out of their rooms. They were heading for breakfast. We had a short chat with them. It's got to be safe despite they wondered why we're here for you..."

"Hahaha, let them take a guess then. Let's go and have breakfast too. After that, we will come back to share the booties. Fetch Jiang Ruoxin and Ji Yuelan here. They had joined the action too..." Zhang Tie said as he blinked his eyes.

The two brothers totally agreed with Zhang Tie's decision. Because this action was dominated by Zhang Tie since the beginning; additionally, Jiang Ruoxin and Ji Yuelan indeed fought the enemies to the end together with them that day. Watching Zhang Tie being so generous and bright, the two brothers determined their mind to follow his leadership.

"Nice, nice. If we take them all, I would always feel a bit weird when I see Jiang Ruoxin and Ji Yuelan again. It feels like being a thief!" Liu Meng said as he grinned.

"Let's go for breakfast..." Zhang Tie then left his room together with the two brothers.

It felt pleasant in the immortal palace except for the regulation that there were only two meals a day and no provisions in the afternoon. Therefore, Zhang Tie gotta get used to it. As for knights, they could fight for several days even without food in the toughest environment, not to mention having only two meals a day.

The canteen, especially for immortal generals in the immortal palace, was not far from their residence. The canteen was filled with delicious food and dishes. Zhang Tie had not imagined that food in Motian Realm was also tasty and bumper besides the strong bodies of people here due to the rich aura value here. Not only that, among the food, especially those greens and grains contained pretty much aura and nutrients, which could work as tunics for strengthening people's health. After coming to Motian Realm for a few days, Zhang Tie had already fallen in love with the food here.

When Zhang Tie's group got to the canteen, there were already six people there, including Jiang Ruoxin, Ji Yuelan and Leng Manxue. Before the three girls, there were three other immortal generals whom Zhang Tie saw for the first time.

One of them was like a handsome playboy in a snow-white garment; one was a tough bald guy who was a bit stronger than Liu brothers; the rest one was like a middle-aged teacher in the town.

When Zhang Tie made a spree killing that day, two of the three people were in cultivation in the branch of Dragon Emperor Immortal Palace as they didn't know what happened outside. They didn't even know that Head Huang and Leng Manxue had left there. The handsome playboy might be not in Heavenly Square City over the past days.

In the canteen, Leng Manxue had one table alone with a strong qi field, with some fresh fruits and pastries over there. Jiang Ruoxin and Ji Yuelan had one. As for the other three, the handsome immortal general had one table a bit closer to that of Jiang Ruoxin and Ji Yuelan and was enjoying his breakfast in a pretty elegant way as if he was doing a performance; the other two men shared one table.

The moment Zhang Tie's group entered, the six people in the canteen had moved their eyes on them. It was the three men's first time to see Zhang Tie. Therefore, they were all slightly shocked. When the handsome guy noticed the seven silver threads in the pattern of a dragon on Zhang Tie's sleeves, he slightly squinted while the other three women's eyes turned bright at once the moment they saw Zhang Tie.

At this moment, Zhang Tie had already changed a new set of outfit, especially for the deputy head. Compared to that when he got to the immortal palace for the first time, he was utterly different now. In black long robe with dragon pattern which fitted him pretty much, plus his young face, Zhang Tie looked pretty noble and profound.

As rough men, Liu brothers didn't have any feeling about Zhang Tie's look as they were of the same kind. However, Zhang Tie's change shocked the three women greatly.

As Zhang Tie was visualizing the new map through the jade slip all day long yesterday, it was his first time to show his new image to the three women.

After nodding at those beauties, Zhang Tie then selected his own breakfast from a myriad of food and dishes with Liu brothers. After that, Zhang Tie implied Liu brothers to sit down at the same table with Jiang Ruoxin and Ji Yuelan. As a result, Liu brothers' bodies rightly "isolated" Jiang Ruoxin and Ji Yuelan from that handsome guy's eyes...

"Nice clothes, deputy head..." Ji Yuelan ogled at Zhang Tie with a smile when she saw Zhang Tie sitting down.

As there were strangers aside them, Ji Yuelan said secretly using his battle qi which could only be heard by the six people at her table.

"Really? I also think it's nice. The tailers in Dragon Emperor Immortal Palace should be awarded!" Zhang Tie replied. Closely after that, he took a great bite on the sweet pastry in his hand, feeling cool and comfortable all over. After that, Zhang Tie kept engulfing food regardless of the existence of the two beauties as he vaguely talked to Ji Yuelan, "Why do I feel strange with you only after one day? The day before yesterday, sister called me young brother; however, you're calling me deputy head today...hmm...you women are too capricious. Alas, a lot of spoony boys would be hurt by you..."

Previously, Jiang Ruoxin looked solemn. However, after hearing Zhang Tie's words, she almost burst into laughter. By contrast, Liu brothers still watched Zhang Tie out of admiration as they praised Zhang Tie's skill of conquering women so easily.

"If I called you young brother, wouldn't you feel offended..." Ji Yuelan asked with a smile as she felt that Zhang Tie remained unchanged. It felt pretty comfortable to be with Zhang Tie.

"Of course not. But if you called me that in front of Head Huang, he would feel that you were despising heads of Dragon Emperor Immortal Palace and might give you smaller shoes(find you trouble) by then. By then, I would not help you..."

"Give me smaller shoes? What does that mean? Head Huang gotta get being not that tiresome modifying my shoes..." Ji Yuelan asked Zhang Tie while widely opening her eyes. At the same time, Jiang Ruoxin also watched Zhang Tie out of curiosity.

After hearing Ji Yuelan's question, Zhang Tie realized that there was not such a saying in Motian Realm. Therefore, he started to explain "giving smaller shoes" to them.

"Pah, it's got to be you!" Ji Yuelan threw a glance at Zhang Tie and Liu brothers as she turned a bit confused, asking, "Why do I feel that you three are hiding something from us today..."

Liu brothers then smirked quietly...

"Take food. After breakfast, we will show you something good!"

"We're almost full. What's that?" Ji Yuelan became curious at a stroke.

"Haha, you will know!"

"Couldn't it be here?"

"No, the others might get scared. We'd better take a look in the room!"

"Would you take advantage of us? We've seen a lot like that!"

"Haha, if you dare not go there, don't regret..."

"Hurrumph, forget about that..."

After a while, Leng Manxue finished her breakfast and left there first. Zhang Tie and Liu brothers finished their food too closely after her. Then, Zhang Tie pulled Ji Yuelan and Jiang Ruoxin's wrists and left there too accompanied by Liu brothers.

When he left there, Zhang Tie felt he was being gazed at. However, he didn't care about that. By now, Zhang Tie might take a look back if he felt being gazed by a sage-level knight or a semi-sage level knight. Weaker ones such as fierce earth generals and earth immortal generals couldn't arouse Zhang Tie's attention anymore. Although it sounded improper, it was proper. Would an elephant care about his image in the eyes of some ants?

Zhang Tie knew where the eye light came from. However, that handsome guy in white garment looked pretty delicate and was not of the same kind as him given his qi field. Zhang Tie knew that from his eating method. When Zhang Tie got to the canteen, that person had been glancing at him every once a while as if he was not happy about being isolated from enjoying the two beauties. However, he didn't ask for Liu brothers to remove their seats. Zhang Tie realized that this guy was a bit tricky. Even so, Zhang Tie didn't feel like caring about him. Regardless of what he was thinking about!

After coming to Zhang Tie's room, Ji Yuelan remained composed; however, Jiang Ruoxin became a bit flushed as if she didn't like being caught with her wrist by a man. On the way here, she thought about getting rid of Zhang Tie's grasp for a few times; however, she didn't do it as Jiang Ruoxin wanted to be as frank as Zhang Tie.

"Could you tell us what you're going to show us..." Ji Yuelan asked at once.

Zhang Tie took a look at Liu Meng, who had been following Zhang Tie, and he had long closed the door. Before entering the room, Liu Meng even looked around the aisle meticulously like a thief.

"Hehhehheh, we called you here to share booties!"

"Share booties?" The two women exchanged a suspicious glance with each other.

Zhang Tie instantly wove his arm while eight huge iron boxes appeared on the floor in the parlor, which startled the two women a lot.

Zhang Tie implied Liu Yong to open them. Liu Yong then walked over there to break one box's lock by pinching it. When a wisp of golden light flew out of the box, Liu Yong inhaled heavily as all the others became shocked except for Zhang Tie.

"Element crystals..." Liu brothers were shocked so much. Although they knew there were treasures in this box, they had really not realized that there were element crystals. As for the two fierce immortal generals, they were greatly attracted to treasures, not to mention element crystals which were the most precious items for immortal generals.

Watching their dumbfounded looks, Zhang Tie walked over there and opened the other seven boxes one after another.

In a split second, golden and blue lights had brightened Zhang Tie's room.

Six of the eight boxes contained earth element crystals while the other two contained water element crystals. Each box contained at least 1,000 element crystals.

Zhang Tie had seen too many element crystals, even more than these. Therefore, Zhang Tie didn't care about that at all. However, Zhang Tie underestimated the impact of these element crystals on the other four people in this room. Actually, the four people were in collective silence for quite a while in front of these element crystals...
