Chapter 1633: Fear
Translator: WQL Editor: Aleem
When over 10,000 battle qi smokes and tornados rushed into the sky on Zhang Tie’s side, the three old men slightly frowned with profound eyesight on the highest deck of an airboat hundreds of miles away...
Not until Zhang Tie met his family members and knights of Iron-Dragon Sect and the battle qi smokes and tornados gradually faded away did the three old men exchange a glance with each other and return to the back room of the airboat before sitting down together.
Taiyi Old Man the head of Taiyi Fantasy Sect was in black and white robe with a taichi diagram in front. His eyebrows and hair were fully white; however, he didn’t have a single wrinkle. In classic heaven reaching crown, his nose was like eagle beak while his eyes were as shiny as stars. He gave out a looming, subtle qi. Given his look, he must be an extremely aggressive figure.
The head of Heavens Holding Pavilion Heavenly Hunyuan was in white hair and black blade-shaped eyebrows. At the sight of his eyebrows, people would feel like being chopped by two machetes. He carried an extremely strong killing intent. In azure robe, Heavenly Hunyuan was playing with a glazed heavenly ruler, which was well-known across the country as a top treasure of Heavens Holding Pavilion. With great power, it was said to be a golden secret item by very few people in Taixia Country.
Shenkong Old Man the head of Qionglou Pavilion was the only bald one among the three. He was a famous immortal craftsman in rune instrument manufacturing in Taixia Country. Due to his cultivation method or something else, Shenkong Old Man was always shrouded by fog. Besides his face, the greater part of his body was covered in changing fog mysteriously. He always looked down, which looked pretty benign.
After sitting down, Taiyi Old Man took a look at the other two as he asked in a low tone, “I wonder whether do you think it’s still too early for us to deliver black invitation cards to Immortal Qianji?”
“I’ve not imagined that Immortal Qianji could have such high popularity at such a young age. He could easily converge over 10,000 knights. That’s horrible...” Shenkong Old Man sighed.
Nobody else knew the meaning of Zhang Tie’s high popularity better than the three sage-level knights on the top of the pyramid of cultivation. Zhang Tie’s high popularity was made by Zhang Tie step by step. From his excellent performance in the fight for the title of the provincial governor of Youzhou Province for Zhang Taixuan in White Tiger Platform, Youzhou Province to the fact that he caused a heavy loss to Heavens Reaching Church; from his escape with the crime of killing family members of Fan the household register official to his fight in the Earth-elements Realm; from when he became innocent to that he started to develop Fiery-Dragon Bounty Territory; from when he started to produce fiery oil to that he was in charge of the logistics of the Western Theater of Operations; from the battle in Weishui River to the nearest fight in the Dongtian of Great Wilderness Sect in South Border, it could be said that each of Zhang Tie’s deed in each identity in each place was perfect given his ability and moral standing. Therefore, Zhang Tie won such a great popularity among knights in Taixia Country which couldn’t be faltered easily.
Popularity and prestige didn’t work without an emergency. Take this critical moment as an instance, as long as Zhang Tie raised his arm, he would have able helpers and gain an overwhelming momentum, which could become a paramount force across the country. At the critical moment, he could even manipulate the fate of Taixia Country as a whole. Zhang Tie might not have discovered such a hidden capacity of him. However, many major figures had the same experience with Zhang Tie before realizing their great undertaking since ancient times and from home and abroad.
However, such a person chose to go against the Imperial Alliance, which couldn’t be borne by the latter.
“Thankfully, it’s not too late for us to deal with him at this moment...” Heavenly Hunyuan said as his eyes were full of killing intent, “Those who follow us would stay alive; those who don’t follow us would die. As Emperor Xuanyuan has disappeared, who else could defeat us across the country? We’ve already spared a chance to him; if he sticks to be our opponent, we could only eliminate him...” After saying that, Heavenly Hunyuan sneered as he told Taiyi Old Man, “Perhaps they still think that you will fight him on behalf of us until now. He must be thinking about dealing with your Real Sun Flame...”
“Heavenly Hunyuan, thanks for your help...”
Heavenly Hunyuan nodded as he patted his Heavenly Ruler on his palm for a couple of times before letting out a sigh, “If only we could directly kill Zhang Tie. If we have to consider the responses from all parties and choose the battlefield above Yinhai, besides doing that ourselves, we have to lose at least 10 rare space-teleportation items to make it look like an accident. What a pity...”
“Given Zhang Tie’s reputation, if we join hands to kill him, we would become the targets of the public at once. Xuanyuan Hill, Lord Guangnan’s Mansion, Heavenly Fortune Sect and Demons-Killing Valley would never deal with us for real. As a result, we would face more troubles. As long as we make it an accident, there would be no problem. Such a bit loss is nothing serious when we take Jinwu Palace in the future!” Taiyi Old Man said calmly.
“Lan Yunxi should have arrived at Datang City...” Shenkong Old Man said as he lowered his eyes, “After marrying Lan Yunxi, the third prince would establish a relationship with Huaiyuan Palace. After Zhang Tie’s death, we would collapse Iron-Dragon Sect; given the relationship between Huaiyuan Palace and Jinwu Palace, we could fabricate many stories about the death of Zhang Taixuan. Along with this clue, we would have a reason to devour Jinwu Palace and control fiery oil and all-purpose medicament. But there’s an unknown factor, namely, Lan Yunxi does not know the relationship between us and the third prince. If she knows that, she might not follow our order. We need to make a preparation for that...”
“As we’re seeking for the truth, anyone stopping us would be our enemies and deserve the death!” Taiyi Old Man said distantly, “By then, Taiyi Fantasy Sect would solve the problem of Lan Yunxi. No worries!”
“That’s good; that’s good...” Shenkong Old Man suddenly looked up and took a look at Taiyi Old Man with a smile as he added, “We three have not met each other for a long time. Your cultivation base might have been greater than before. Have you touched the threshold a bit?”
Heavenly Hunyuan’s eyes moved a bit as he looked at Taiyi Old Man too.
Taiyi Old Man looked calm as he replied, “As for the new realm, you know, we three a closely tied with each other. How could I open a rebellious way myself? Before Taixia Country becomes the ideal country of us, we would barely make great progress in cultivation base. I’ve just got some gnosis from the secret methods of Taiyi Ture Sutra ...”
Being silent, Shenkong Old Man lowered down his eyes again as a weird look flashed by. Heavenly Hunyuan took a look at Shenkong Old Man silently.
The back room was in silence at once...
...
At the same time, soon after Zhang Tie returned to the airboat of Iron-Dragon Sect, some unexpected people had arrived and would like to see Zhang Tie...
