Castle of Black Iron

'Nine-Heavens Immortal Spring? Far-ancient Enlightening Tree?'

After hearing his words, Zhang Tie became stunned at once.

He had not imagined that he had drunk 9 cups of Nine-Heavens Immortal Spring which could help a sage-level immortal general promote to an immortal emperor just now unconsciously. No wonder the tea tasted such weird. It turned out that they were made with Nine-Heavens Immortal Spring. Although Zhang Tie had not heard the name of Far-ancient Enlightening Tree, he thought it must not be average.

Zhang Tie widened his eyes and watched Tang Mei was who smiling right in front of him, he felt that Tang Mei's image became blurry. This fascinating face appeared to be both close to him and far away from him. It was blurry and absolutely untouchable.

In an instant, Zhang Tie couldn't even utter any voice.

"Brother, will you blame me for having you drink Nine-Heavens Immortal Spring?" Tang Mei asked elegantly and bashfully as she watched Zhang Tie with her bright eyes, "But you've already promoted to a supreme-level immortal general now. If you don't drink Nine-Heavens Immortal Spring, you cannot break the deity-human barrier. If cannot break the deity-human barrier, you will not be able to sense the existence of the realm of thoughts and couldn't form your first immortal chakra."

'Deity-human barrier? Realm of thoughts? First immortal chakra?'

After hearing Tang Mei's words, Zhang Tie's head almost blew up. After a few seconds, Zhang Tie recovered his composure as he asked her in a muffled voice, "Did Emperor NvWa ask you to do that"

After hearing Zhang Tie's question, Tang Mei suddenly smiled. She just watched Zhang Tie silently.

'Did Tang Mei hide some words or feel inconvenient to say it here facing the coercion?'

When he thought he was in Emperor NvWa's Palace, the nestle of Emperor NvWa, Zhang Tie's face turned gloomy at once as he instantly sprung up. After circling around the teapoy, he came to Tang Mei's side and instantly grasped Tang Mei's hand. Under Tang Mei's amazed eyes, he pulled her up to his side and stood in front of her with half of his body as if he was protecting her. After that, he looked around and said aloud with sparkling eyes, "Now that Her Majesty Emperor NvWa invited me here, why not deal with me aboveboard? Why do you have a girl as your shield? From now on, Tang Mei is my woman. She's under my protection. If Your Majesty Emperor NvWa doesn't show up and clarify it, I will take Tang Mei away from Emperor NvWa's Palace!"

As her hand was grasped by Zhang Tie, Tang Mei's cheeks suddenly turned red bashfully. She then couldn't help approaching Zhang Tie as she whispered, "Brother..."

"Don't be afraid. You don't have to say anything about it. I will help you solve your trouble. Emperor NvWa is strange and unpredictable. It's not a good idea for you to continue to stay here. I will take you away from here. Who dares to block me!" Zhang Tie said as he squinted his eyes and looked around while being ready to release his battle qi at any time.

Soon after waking up, Zhang Tie found that he had recovered the strength that he had consumed during the battle in Deities' Plain. Additionally, he even felt he was much more powerful than that in Deities' Plain before he activated his Battle God Bloodline. In the current state, he could activate his Battle God Bloodline at any time. He didn't believe that Emperor NvWa could defeat him in this state.

Zhang Tie thought Emperor NvWa who was hiding somewhere should show up and clarify everything at this moment as he had already been ready to overturn the table. However, unimaginably, after waiting for quite a while, he still didn't see anybody else in the vicinity of the pavilion. He didn't even hear any human voice.

Therefore, Zhang Tie's face flushed with embarrassment!

'Did Emperor NvWa really think that I dare not take Tang Mei away from here? Let's see it...'

"Let's go..." Zhang Tie's muffled voice broke the silence as he drew Tang Mei out of the pavilion towards the gate of the palace. When they walked out of the pavilion, Zhang Tie even released his protective battle qi to protect Tang Mei. Meanwhile, he warned her with battle qi, "After a while, if the battle breaks out, you just stay beside me. I will never allow the people of Emperor NvWa's Palace to hurt you. If they dare fight me and make you embarrassed today, I will destroy this f*cking palace..."

When being drawn away by Zhang Tie, Tang Mei just stayed with him with a blush like a young wife. Not until Zhang Tie said that he wanted to destroy this f*cking palace did Tang Mei lower her head and whisper shamefully, "Brother, don't you like this Four-Season Palace..."

"Oh, is this Four-Season Palace?" Zhang Tie answered casually as he drew her hand and walked in the garden. He didn't notice Tang Mei's odd expression; because he was focusing on the surroundings. He couldn't even see through this garden with his lotus-flower eyes. If Emperor NvWa played any trick inside here, it was time for her to do it now. Although Zhang Tie appeared to walk here casually; actually, he was intense all over. He was not worried about it if it were him alone; however, with Tang Mei on his side, he had to behave meticulously.

"Hmm, we're in Four-Season Palace; because the season in this palace could alter casually. Brother, don't worry about that. Nobody dares raid us here..."

Zhang Tie instantly stopped his footsteps as he turned around and took a look at Tang Mei before asking her, "Why?"

"Because there's nobody else in this Four-Season Palace except you and me. Nobody else in Motian Realm could enter this palace either..."

Zhang Tie became temporarily stunned as he asked her, "Doesn't Emperor NvWa live in here?"

"Yes, she does..."

"Why did you say nobody else was here then?" Zhang Tie asked as he instantly became silent. He then watched Tang Mei with great shock in a daze.

At this moment, even an idiot could get Tang Mei's point. Additionally, Zhang Tie was smart. He just had never thought about that possibility...

'How could Tang Mei be Emperor NvWa?'

"I didn't mean to cheat you, brother. I've already known you since you came to Motian Realm. As you came from an alien world, I was curious about you and always observed your traces and actions. When you were trapped in the fatal formation of Versatile Demon Emperor, as I couldn't leave Emperor NvWa City, I could only have Deputy President Xiang go to save you. However, I've not imagined that you fell into the Yaohai Ocean after the fatal formation of Versatile Demon Emperor was broken and came to Emperor NvWa City after getting rid of the chase of the grand owner of Si Clan. In the beginning, I was just curious about you and wanted to observe you from a short distance; therefore, I especially encountered with you at the city gate of Emperor NvWa City..."

"That's incredible!" Zhang Tie became dumbfounded. According to Tang Mei, she had known him since he entered Motian Realm; additionally, she was observing him all the way without being discovered. Although Tang Mei spoke it calmly, her words sounded almost shocked Zhang Tie to death.

Tang Mei watched Zhang Tie with a smile quietly. Then, she casually waved her hand. Zhang Tie immediately felt the whole space was revolving; meanwhile, the surrounding scenary was changing in a split second. He instantly came to a room that covered hundreds of square meters. There were odd reliefs that were humans in the upper bodies and snakes in the lower bodies on the four walls. Additionally, a bizarre rune was flowing over the walls. Besides, a huge mirror higher than 5 m which appeared to be made of bronze was standing in the middle of the room...
