Chapter 1403: Being Hot-Blooded
Translator: WQL Editor: Aleem
When Zhang Tie opened his eyes, Bai Suxian was still sleeping on the bed sweetly.
After opening the quilt, Zhang Tie threw a glance at Bai Suxian’s elegant curve. He then covered her with the quilt lightly before getting off the bed and walking to the front of the window in a coat, looking in the distance.
The day had just broken outside the window of the airboat. It was cold and frozen outside with flying snowflakes. Overnight, the earth had been in a vast expanse of whiteness.
At the sight of this scenery, the poet might feel like creating a poem. When Zhang Tie saw Weishui River gradually icing up, he heavily frowned as he knew that the demon army’s attack would arrive once again after a couple of months’ rest with the freeze-up of Weishui River.
The Weishui River, when it was frozen, would offset the advantage of Taixia’s fleet on water and collapse many means of Taixia Country in water. Additionally, the ground forces of demons would drive straight in the east bank of Weishui River without any tool.
As the cannon fodder and vanguard of this attack of demons, hundreds of millions of Hua civilians’ corpses would cover 600 miles on the west of Weishui River.
There might be more in the days to come!
‘The incendiary mines that I’ve invented would become the hell of those captured Hua civilians.’
Zuoqiu Mingyue could regard all this as the consumption of demon’s war resources and potential; however, as the inventor and culprit of Fiery Oil and various Fiery-Oil weapons, Zhang Tie felt guilty when he saw his inventions being used to slaughter common Hua civilians...
As Zhang Tie watched the ground grimly with a heavy frown, he was brewing a thought.
Since Zhang Tie was in custody in the Law Enforcement Center of the no. 46 air cavalry regiment, Zhang Tie had already got this thought. In the beginning, he was not sure whether this method was feasible. However, after a heavenly knight was assigned to assassinate “him”, Zhang Tie had confirmed its feasibility, namely, he could save almost 200 million Hua civilians!
Even so, he should pay a high price for it. He should not only expose all of his trump cards, but also might lose his life.
Such a decision could barely be made by anyone. Therefore, Zhang Tie was still a bit hesitant. Zhang Tie didn’t mean to be a renowned saint; neither had he dreamed for a legendary life. He only wanted a comfortable life being accompanied by wives and kids, which was also his favorite. He would also be hesitant, balk at and measure dangers. However, whenever he closed his eyes, he would see numerous poor Hua civilians being driven to clear mines by demons, a mother trying to put out the flame over her baby, the old man kneeling down to whine, causing Zhang Tie hot-blooded ceaselessly.
He could continue to watch everything happening distantly and calculate all the benefits and shortcomings precisely like a difference engine. He would not expose his trump cards and risk his life unless in need.
On the other hand, he could live and do as he liked. He would surge forward even if there were tens of thousands of demon knights!
‘Which way should I choose?’
Forming a sharp contrast with the cold outside the airboat, the inside of the room was as warm as spring. When Zhang Tie was watching the scenery outside the window and simmering his plan, Bai Suxian had already come to his back and put her arms around Zhang Tie tightly, putting her face close against Zhang Tie’s back.
“You’re thinking about something...” Bai Suxian muttered.
As Zhang Tie’s woman, Bai Suxian could well sense Zhang Tie’s feeling.
Revealing a smile, Zhang Tie looked at the distance as he said, “There’s a flower called udumbara in the legend. It opens per 3,000 years when it encounters someone who could interact with it. Do you think it is worth that or not?”
“Some flowers open yearly and fade lonely in woods with its fragrance. Although they have opened millions of times, they’re still alone. By contrast, some flowers open per 3,000 years when they could interact with people who understand them, even if they won’t open anymore...” Bai Suxian replied with emotions as she put her arms around Zhang Tie tightly.
“Thanks, I see...” Zhang Tie let out a deep sigh as he finally determined his mind. Turning around, he cupped Bai Suxian’s pretty face and said, “I have to leave Xuanyuan Fortress for some days. During this period, you’d better not stay here. Go back to Iron-Dragon Sect...”
As the princess of Lord Guangnan’s Mansion, Bai Suxian was actually already free when Bai Runcheng and the other knights of Lord Guangnan’s Mansion arrived at the theater of operations. Nobody forced her to stay in the theater of operations to fight demons.
“You want me back?” Bai Suxian asked Zhang Tie out of amazement.
“I’m a guerrilla general. I’m free. I will go back after a few days too. I will be more reassured when you’re at home. Additionally, your uncle and the other knights of Lord Guangnan’s Mansion would not allow you to fight demons on the battlefield. Why not help me look after the house...” Zhang Tie said with a casual smile.
“Where’re you heading for?”
Zhang Tie slapped Bai Suxian’s plump butt and said with a serious look, “Women don’t need to know their man’s plan...”
“I just care about you...” Bai Suxian liked Zhang Tie’s crafty very much. When she found that Zhang Tie was silent, she embraced Zhang Tie as she twisted her waist and acted like a spoiled child cheerily.
...
Half an hour later, Zhang Tie left Xuanyuan Fortress after bidding a farewell to Feng Cangwu and the other friends using remote-sensing crystals.
Zhang Tie left stealthily. Even Bai Suxian didn’t come out to see him off. As for Mountain Lifting Hermit, he had already left after escorting a batch of materials to Xuanyuan Fortress and having a drink with Zhang Tie last night.
Standing in the strong wind and snow, Zhang Tie threw a deep glance at the demon’s camp. Closely after that, he whistled while his thunder hawk flashed towards him from the skyline. After Zhang Tie jumped onto its back, the thunder hawk instantly rushed into the sky and disappeared from the bank of Weishui River at a speed which was two times the speed of sound towards east...
The thunder hawk moved so fast that the wind and snow had been blown away by the wave caused by the supersonic flight before they touched the thunder hawk. None of it fell onto Zhang Tie.
The moment Zhang Tie left Xuanyuan Fortress, many people had already known that...
