Chapter 1353: Being Isolated by One Wall

Translator: WQL  Editor: Aleem

Since Zhang Tie made a longuette for Yan Feiqing, he had felt that the relationship between them had been not as intense as before. During the period when Yan Feiqing was in cultivation, Zhang Tie would come to the high platform to flirt with her for a short while in about every 10 days. The moment Yan Feiqing started to lose her temper, Zhang Tie would slide away.

Zhang Tie’s every flirtation only lasted a few minutes, which didn’t pose any influence to Yan Feiqing’s cultivation. It was as simple as how commoners held their breath temporarily for a shadow knight to absorb elements from elements realm. Yan Feiqing’s cultivation would not be disturbed by Zhang Tie’s flirtation. Instead, Zhang Tie’s movements and words spiced up Yan Feiqing’s cultivation period.

It was true that the powerful ones would always be accompanied by loneliness and stars. However, it was not bad for both Zhang Tie and Yan Feiqing to be accompanied by each other in the lonely trip towards the apex of cultivation under the stars.

At least Zhang Tie felt that this experience in the tower of time was much more interesting than how he felt last time. Although 6 decades felt pretty long for commoners, it was not that long for a shadow knight who wanted to promote to a heavenly knight or a major craftsman who wanted to be an immortal craftsman.

Being accompanied by a beauty in the tower of time, Zhang Tie was really gratified!

When he practiced and comprehended the techniques of rune instrument manufacturing master, Zhang Tie kept renovating that wilderness in the crystal Mongolian yurt. Additionally, the courtyard also gradually looked more like a home.

In the following 2 months, Zhang Tie renovated the banks of that brook using the pebbles in the brook, natural cement that he had baked and clay. Furthermore, he built a stone bridge across the brook. He even divided that courtyard into a vestibule, a garden and two smaller courtyards. Yan Feiqing would take bath in the garden. Zhang Tie also divided the room into two smaller ones and filled them with wood, metal or stony furniture in accordance with homestyle…

No matter what, the clothes that Zhang Tie had made and was making for Yan Feiqing tested his rune instrument manufacturing skills most.

Gold, mithril and cocoon gold were most suitable for fine wires. With this property of the 3 metals, Zhang Tie attempted to make different alloys in various methods and formulas using the raw materials in the rune instrument manufacturing skill promotion region. After receiving metals with different properties and colors, Zhang Tie got their fine wires. After further renovating his loom, he would be able to make various metal cloths in different patterns, styles, colors, grains and textures. With these metal cloths, of course, he would make different clothes for Yan Feiqing.

In the Library of Xuanyuan Hill, there were records of millions of patterns of female clothes, most of which had been preserved since the Catastrophe. Zhang Tie didn’t need to worry about lacking reference at all.

Zhang Tie provided clothes to Yan Feiqing at a frequency of one set per month.

Like what Zhang Tie imagined, as a woman, even as a shadow knight, Yan Feiqing indeed couldn’t stand just wearing one set of clothes for 6 decades when she had the condition to change new clothes with a man on her side.

Therefore, Yan Feiqing would always wear every set of new clothes made by Zhang Tie for her.

Since she accepted the styles of the first set of clothes and underclothes tailored by Zhang Tie for her, Yan Feiqing had not been exclusive to the same styles. Zhang Tie sought for excellence in each set of clothes in the principle of flexible design style. Therefore, Zhang Tie’s each masterpiece could win Yan Feiqing’s favor. As the adage went, women’s closet always lacked a new suit; especially in the tower of time, it was already luxurious for a woman to have a new set of clothes per month.

In the blink of an eye, the two people had stayed in the tower of time for over 1 year. One day, after finishing the 6th set of clothes for Yan Feiqing, Zhang Tie waited outside the crystal Mongolian yurt and watched Yan Feiqing coming toward the entrance in a solemn way.

“What’s wrong?”

Yan Feiqing would never open her mouth to Zhang Tie at the beginning; however, after staying here for 1 year, she didn’t realize that she had felt normal to talk with Zhang Tie.

Scratching his head and blinking his eyes, Zhang Tie replied, “As I’ve made so many sets of clothes for you, you might not have enough place to store them. I’ve made you a wardrobe right in the room of that courtyard. I’ve cleaned it up. How about putting your clothes in that wardrobe? Although your clothes were piled up tidily on your crystal bed outside, it felt a bit disordered. That doesn’t fit your status. Even I feel bashful for you. It’s okay if you could put them in your space-teleportation item; however, if not, I think that you’d better put your clothes in the wardrobe. What do you think about it?”

It was her first time to be commented as being disordered by a man since she was born. Therefore, she felt a bit bashful. However, Zhang Tie was telling the truth.

“Well, that’s fine!”

“Do you need any help?”

“No, I will deal with it…” Yan Feiqing replied as she returned to her crystal bed. Over the past months, all the clothes that Zhang Tie had made for her were just piled up on the crystal bed. Although the crystal bed was spacious, there wasn’t any surplus space for clothes on the bed. No matter what, she couldn’t put clothes on the floor.

Although those clothes were tailored by Zhang Tie, Yan Feiqing still felt a bit embarrassed by having Zhang Tie touch them.

“I remember that the wardrobe is in the locker room in the left wing behind the bathing pool…” Zhang Tie reminded her “kindheartedly”…

With her clothes, Yan Feiqing went to the wing-room mentioned by Zhang Tie. After pushing open the door of the locker room, she indeed saw a row of wardrobes. This closet was especially for a female, which seemed to be available for hundreds of sets of clothes. It was definitely a better choice to put her clothes here than on the crystal bed…

After a few more months, Zhang Tie posed another suggestion when Yan Feiqing had been used to all these, “As you’ve finished so many things in that courtyard, including taking bath, changing and washing clothes. You have even stored your belongings over there. How about turning one of those empty rooms in that courtyard into your bedroom? I’ve got some furniture for you. If you feel it’s convenient, why not live there? Whatever, you only take a rest in your bedroom for one night per month. If you put your belongings in that courtyard and go to bed outside in the empty lobby after taking a bath and changing your clothes, it feels very strange. What do you think about that?”

Previously, Yan Feiqing didn’t feel that her behaviors were improper; however, after being reminded by Zhang Tie, she also felt it was very strange. Additionally, she even seemed to be a bit foolish, ‘Yeah, after taking a bath, changing and washing my clothes, I go to bed in the empty lobby outside, that really feels strange; especially when my belongings are all in the courtyard.’

Yan Feiqing then watched Zhang Tie with a slight smile as if she had already seen through Zhang Tie’s “trickery”, “Fine, you’ve reminded me. I declare that I will occupy that courtyard whenever I come back in the future. Whenever I come back, you should move away!”

“My empress dowager, don’t be that merciless. That courtyard is so large and has been divided into two smaller courtyards. We can share it as we don’t interfere with each other. That’s too unreasonable that I would move away whenever you come back. Trust me, I won’t offend you. Do you know how long I’ve spent in building this courtyard? It took me over 1 year. Additionally, even if I want to offend you, I dare not do that as I can’t defeat you…” Zhang Tie shouted.

Yan Feiqing’s face turned icy at once as her qi became aggressive, “Empress dowager? Do you think that I’m too old?”

“If you don’t treat me hideously, I could even call you Little Qingqing…” Zhang Tie pulled his face, causing Yan Feiqing’s aggressive qi to fade away immediately.

“Peh, shameless…” Yan Feiqing’s face blushed at once.

“Little Qingqing, that’s the deal. Whatever, I will live in my own courtyard. As I’ve prepared your courtyard and rooms, it depends on you whether you come or not. Unless you could really defeat me, never dream about driving me away…” Zhang Tie said as he returned to the courtyard inside the crystal Mongolian yurt and closed his door, leaving Yan Feiqing alone.

Would Yan Feiqing really fight Zhang Tie in this case? Of course not. As a result, Yan Feiqing really settled in her courtyard which was only separated from Zhang Tie’s courtyard by one wall in between.

Not only that, from today on, Zhang Tie directly stayed in his own courtyard in the crystal Mongolian yurt when Yan Feiqing took a bath in her courtyard.

It was Yan Feiqing’s first time to sleep in her new bedroom. Therefore, she felt restless.

She was lying on a golden bed in her bedroom. A wooden pillow was put on the bed along with a thin cocoon gold quilt. This place was much more comfortable than the icy crystal bed outside. There was a dressing table in her room. The entire room was decorated like a woman’s bedroom. Next to the wall, Zhang Tie’s snores were so clear as she was a shadow knight who always had a sensitive sense of hearing.

It was the first experience for Yan Feiqing to hear a man’s snore since she was born, which discomposed her.

“Little Qingqing, why are you still awake?” Zhang Tie asked Yan Feiqing in a secret way which sounded as clear as a face-to-face chat, “Hehheh, are you still missing me?”

“Break wind…”

“Why are you still awake then?”

“None of your business!”

“I’ve got a method which might help you form your chakra two more times faster. Do you want to hear it?”

“What’s that?” Zhang Tie’s words aroused her curiosity.

Zhang Tie then explained her about the principle of mental arithmetic and his gnosis about capturing element crystals using multi-tasking skill, “This is a secret method of Iron-Dragon Sect called Thousands of Beads Mental Sutra . With your spiritual energy, you could easily proceed two tasks at the same time only after practicing it for a few days and form your chakra two times faster!”

Yan Feiqing became silent for a short while. She knew that Zhang Tie’s secret method was real and would play a special role in helping her raise her cultivation speed.

“Why did you tell me about that?” Yan Feiqing asked.

Zhang Tie burst out into laughter, “Because you’re my Little Qingqing…”

“Don’t lie…”

“I’m telling the truth. If you don’t believe that, here’s one more reason. Actually, I admire you very much. Hopefully, you could promote to a heavenly knight as soon as possible. You were really manly when you deepened into the area occupied by demons and killed those demon knights who were insulting those Hua women…”

‘Manly?’ Yan Feiqing felt like crying at this comment. No woman in this world might like that comment. However, because of the word, Yan Feiqing knew that Zhang Tie was indeed telling the truth. If Yan Feiqing could reach Zhang Tie at this moment, she really wanted to pinch Zhang Tie forcefully.

“What about you? As Weiji General, why did you go to the area occupied by demons?”

“Can’t I be even as brave as a woman? Isn’t a man’s responsibility to fight demons…”

“Aren’t you afraid that I can grasp your secret method of Iron-Dragon Sect…”

“Haha, just take it. As Qinji Hermit, I’ve got a myriad of secret methods. I won’t worry about that even if you pass this secret method to your disciples of Fantasy Female Palace. In case of troubles, Iron-Dragon Sect and Fantasy Female Palace could hold parties together. I was told that all your disciples in Fantasy Female Palace are female. We could even be match-makers…”

Yan Feiqing suddenly interrupted, “What about Hongyi? Hongyi is also my disciple, whom do you prepare to marry her to…”

“Ahh…” Zhang Tie pretended to yawn while his words sounded sleepy, “It’s a nice weather tonight. Bright moon and sparse stars. Monkeys are chattering on the banks of the river and Lord Zhou has passed by mountains. We’d better sleep too. If a woman sleeps late, it would not be good for her skin…”

After saying that, Zhang Tie became silent. Only after a few seconds, his snores had drifted to Yan Feiqing’s ears once again…

Yan Feiqing gritted her teeth out of fury as she couldn’t stand breaking the wall and beating up Zhang Tie ferociously.
