Castle of Black Iron

'Busy ones are always vulgar!'

Zhang Tie suddenly muttered on the way towards Emperor NvWa's Palace incessantly.

Bian Heng didn't promise to leave Motian Realm with Zhang Tie at once. As he had lived in Motian Realm for so many years, he was nostalgic for the good old days; additionally, there might meet unpredictable great dangers on the way back to Taixia Country. Therefore, it was normal for him to be hesitant before going to the strange world.

Compared to the world where Zhang Tie came from, Motian Realm was indeed too small. It lacked many splendid things. However, the size was just a relative concept. Many people might not leave the village, that city or that palace within many high walls where they were born for their whole lives; however, they could still live peacefully, calmly or happily.

No matter what, Motian Realm was endless compared to a village, a city or a palace within many high walls.

As Zhang Tie understood Bian Heng, he spared some days for him to consider it. They could contact at any time. After Bian Heng made a decision to leave Motian Realm, he could come for Zhang Tie at any time within the time limit.

After doing all these, Zhang Tie left Tigerback Mountain. He didn't have a meal or enough sleep in Tigerback Mountain. Actually, he didn't even have a mouthful of tea water over there.

When Zhang Tie was going to leave, Bian Heng suddenly asked him, "Where are you going?"

"Emperor NvWa's Palace!" Zhang Tie answered.

However, after hearing the three words, Bian Heng who had just recovered his composure instantly jumped up and started to blame Zhang Tie. His froth was almost sprayed over Zhang Tie's face.

"How dare you urge that you haven't cast greedy eyes on Tang Mei? You're going to follow here there soon after she arrives at Emperor NvWa's Palace. Do you think that I don't know what you're thinking about?"

"Old douchebag! I'm not as dirty as you. I'm going there to meet Emperor NvWa. When I finished my secluded cultivation a few days ago, I've already promised Emperor NvWa that I was going to visit her in a few days!"

"Really?" Bian Heng watched Zhang Tie with deep confusion.

Zhang Tie felt unnecessary explaining it to Bian Heng because his moral standing had "gone bankrupt" in Bian Heng's eyes to a certain degree.

"Listen, no matter what, Tang Mei is my apprentice. I can almost decide her marriage. If you want to ask her to be as same as those women of Yin-Yang Sect, I will never forgive you for that. Even though I cannot defeat you by force, I could at least drug you and make you sexually impotent. In the future, you could only watch women helplessly..."

Seeing Zhang Tie off, Bian Heng continued to threaten him with his battle qi from Tigerback Mountain in case the latter couldn't hear it.

Bian Heng might be the only one who dared "threaten" Zhang Tie in Motian Realm now, but his method of "threat" was too weird.

'What an old douchebag!' Zhang Tie swore inside.

However, although Bian Heng was a bit weird, he was cunning more or less. Additionally, he was one of Zhang Tie's good friends in Motian Realm, despite the great difference between them in age. If he really couldn't meet this man in the future, Zhang Tie would definitely miss him.

...

Emperor NvWa City was large; however, given Zhang Tie's speed, it was not large.

As Bian Heng's weird voice was still lingering in his ears and he was sighing about his vulgar deeds with emotion, Zhang Tie had already seen Emperor NvWa's Palace on the horizon ahead at his terrifyingly high speed soon after leaving Tigerback Mountain. Additionally, Zhang Tie saw two people flying out of Emperor NvWa's Palace towards him, one in red, the other in green.

One of the two people was Shen Bijun, the deputy president of Emperor NvWa's Palace who was a bit fat with white hair and a ruddy complexion. Zhang Tie had met her in Dragon Emperor Pavilion soon after he finished his secluded cultivation. Shen Bijun was wearing a green longuette today.

Next to Shen Bijun was an old man in red clothing whom Zhang Tie had not seen before. Though he was bald, he looked pretty attractive. He was evidently fatter than Shen Bijun. Given his qi, he was also a sage-level immortal general.

A man in red indeed matched a woman in green well.

Watching them flying towards him, Zhang Tie didn't feel unusual. Given the ability of Emperor NvWa, if she didn't know that Zhang Tie was coming, it would be a joke.

When they were approaching each other, Zhang Tie instantly lowered his speed. Finally, he suspended in the air.

"Your Majesty, you're really faithful. Her Majesty Emperor NvWa has known that you're coming here. Therefore, she especially asked us to greet you here!" Shen Bijun instantly greeted Zhang Tie as she bowed towards Zhang Tie with that old man on her side soon after they arrived in front of Zhang Tie.

"Her Majesty Emperor NvWa is too polite. Now that I had promised Her Majesty Emperor NvWa to pay a visit to her in 2 months, of course, I must keep my promise..."

"Hahaha, His Majesty Dragon Emperor killed two demon emperors and shattered the f*cking army of 100,000 demons in Nine-Heavens Big Domain. That's too cool! You've really strengthened the morality of humans. I've long wanted to pay a visit to Your Majesty Dragon Emperor. Your Majesty is really more heroic than your fame." The old man next to Shen Bijun burst out laughing.

After hearing the old man's voice, Zhang Tie instantly recalled something as his heart suddenly palpitated once. Closely after that, Zhang Tie widened his eyes. Watching that old man, he asked Shen Bijun, "This is..."

"This is Xiang Kui the deputy president of Emperor NvWa's Palace!" Shen Bijun introduced.

"Deputy president Xiang, did you find Versatile Demon Emperor's fatal formation accidentally 7 years ago and threw a Formation Broken Mine into its fatal formation to break it?" Zhang Tie suddenly asked him.

"Ah, how do you know that?" Deputy President Xiang watched Zhang Tie with a curious look as he stroked his bald head. "I got a powerful heavenly-level formation broken mine from Mountain Ruins. Soon after leaving Mountain Ruins, I had received the message from Her Majesty. She asked me to go to a region in Brokenstars Sea and break any fatal formation of demons that I found there with the formation broken mine. No matter what, those f*cking demons wouldn't do anything good to humans. Therefore, I instantly threw the formation broken mine into the fatal formation. Your Majesty Dragon Emperor, if you know it, you must be nearby at that time!"

Zhang Tie became stunned. He instantly recognized Xiang Kui given his voice. However, unexpectedly, Xiang Kui saved him because of the order from Emperor NvWa.

'How did Emperor NvWa know that I was in danger?'

When he recalled that Emperor NvWa asked Shen Bijun to give the Heavens-Measurement Ruler to him a few days ago, Zhang Tie instantly felt Emperor NvWa was fathomless.

With various thoughts in mind, Zhang Tie heaved a deep sigh and replied Xiang Kui, "I was in the fatal formation of Versatile Demon Emperor at that time. If not for your formation broken mine, I might have already been killed by Versatile Demon Emperor. Soon after hearing Deputy President Xiang's voice, I've remembered the voice that I heard in the fatal formation. Unexpectedly, it was really Deputy President Xiang who saved me at that time..."

After hearing Zhang Tie's explanation, Shen Bijun and Xiang Kui exchanged a glance with each other as they felt both surprised and undisturbed.

"Your Majesty Dragon Emperor, why were you trapped in the fatal formation of Versatile Demon Emperor at that time?" Shen Bijun asked Zhang Tie.

"I was chasing after Shi Zhongyu and Xia Yangming who joined Dark Emperor Immortal Palace at that time. After killing the two people in Brokenstars Sea, I fell in Versatile Demon Emperor's trap. If not Her Majesty Emperor NvWa and Deputy President Xiang, I might have already died. After surviving that day, I even thought that it was an immortal emperor who helped me. Later on, when I met Force Emperor and Star Emperor, I found it was not them. Therefore, I became a bit confused. I was worried that the one who saved me could barely escape from Versatile Demon Emperor's chase. I've not imagined that the one who helped me was in Emperor NvWa's Palace!"

"Hahaha, it's a coincidence; it's just a coincidence!" Xiang Kui burst out laughing as he waved his hand and said, "I've not imagined that I could save Your Majesty with a formation broken mine. However, to be honest, the one who really saved Your Majesty that day was not me, but Her Majesty Emperor NvWa..."

"No matter what, Deputy President Xiang once saved my life. Please accept my bow!" Zhang Tie said as he cupped his hands and bowed towards Xiang Kui.

"You're too polite. You're too polite. Your Majesty, don't make me embarrassed me anymore..." Xiang Kui was startled as he hurriedly dodged aside and dared not accept Zhang Tie's courteous appreciation. Given Zhang Tie's current social status, very few people across Motian Realm could accept his bow frankly.

Zhang Tie didn't care whether Xiang Kui would dodge away or not. After insisting on finishing his bow, he asked Xiang Kui, "Deputy President Xiang, as you destroyed Versatile Demon Emperor's plan that day. The latter would definitely take vengeance on you. How did you get rid of its chase that day?"

"Hey, hey, hey, I used to travel outside. With the life-saving heavenly immortal outfit and some other rare artifacts gifted by Emperor NvWa's Palace, if I want to leave, even Versatile Demon Emperor couldn't chase me!"

"How did Emperor NvWa know that I was in trouble in Brokenstars Sea?"

"Haha, as for this question, Your Majesty, you can ask Her Majesty Emperor NvWa about this question. Her Majesty would definitely tell you the answer!" Shen Bijun said with a smile.

Zhang Tie realized that Shen Bijun and Xiang Kui should know the reasons; however, they wouldn't like to tell him here. Therefore, Zhang Tie didn't ask them about it anymore. No matter what, he would meet Emperor NvWa after a while. He could ask her about that.

After greeting each other for a short while, they instantly got acquainted with each other. Shen Bijun and Xiang Kui then led Zhang Tie to Emperor NvWa's Palace.

Emperor NvWa's Palace was a city in Emperor NvWa City. It was such magnificent. Even though they were flying in the sky, they could still see the brilliant skyscrapers and crowded people on the ground. This place was the most excellent place in Motian Realm.

There were many layers of immortal generals in the periphery of Emperor NvWa's Palace. With the guidance of Shen Bijun and Xiang Kui, Zhang Tie passed many layers' guards in the air and came to the core region of Emperor NvWa's Palace only after a short while.

Shen Bijun and Xuang Kui directly landed at the entrance of a palace with Zhang Tie. At the entrance of the palace, there were two fire-level immortal generals in golden immortal outfits who served as guards.

"Your Majesty, Her Majesty Emperor NvWa is waiting for you inside. Please come in!"
