Chapter 1677: Heading for Dragon Emperor Big Domain

Translator: WQL  Editor: Aleem

Three days later, on the morning of March 15, the 3584th year of the calendar of Emperor NvWa in Motian Realm…

It was the first rainy day since Zhang Tie came to Motian Realm. In the drizzle, Zhang Tie stood on the deck of an airboat as he watched over 10 lines of people boarding airboats quietly.

The falling raindrops and the gloomy sky made the farewell more sentimental and tragic. The powerful Dragon Emperor Immortal Palace had to bid a farewell to this city which contained millions of people in this way after Dragon Emperor disappeared for more than 900 years. They had to present this place to others given the current situation.

Heavenly Square City was not the first city that Dragon Emperor Immortal Palace abandoned in Nine Heavens Big Domains; of course, it was not the last city either. These days, the Church of Dragon Emperor Immortal Palace would gradually reveal their plan to the public. Within one week, the Dragon Emperor Immortal Palace would evacuate from Nine Heavenly Big Domain as a whole.

Those who received the presents of Dragon Emperor Immortal Palace were Unicorn Immortal Palace, Tianlan Immortal Palace and Force Emperor Immortal Palace. The first two immortal palaces were founded by two of top three supreme immortal knights in Motian Realm while the latter one was founded by Emperor Force, one of the top three immortal emperors in this world. However, Star Emperor Immortal Palace which usually cast greedy eyes on these cities of Dragon Emperor Immortal Palace failed to enter the list of powers sharing the cake of Dragon Emperor Immortal Palace in Nine Heavens Big Domain.

Zhang Tie knew that the elders of Dragon Emperor Immortal Palace must have made negotiations and secret trades with powers of those sister immortal palaces. Therefore, it could proceed so smoothly. If Dragon Emperor Immortal Palace didn’t get guarantees or benefits from those sister forces, of course, it would not present those cities to them along with the population, even with discounts.

That was like how geckos break their tails for surviving themselves when in danger.

When Dragon Emperor Immortal Palace couldn’t protect these cities under its affiliation or deter the other forces, it was destined to narrow its scale. It had better exchange these cities and population for something when it could make a choice rather than being shared by the surrounding forces which looked like packs of wolves.

The decision of the Church of Dragon Emperor Immortal Palace was understandable.

The raindrops touched an invisible shield and fell down 1 m away from Zhang Tie. The open part of the deck of this airboat had been completely wet except the area of about 3 square meters centered on Zhang Tie. Therefore, Zhang Tie felt pretty special in moisture.

It seemed that there was no movable deck on the airboats in Motian Realm. Such airboats were utterly different than that in Taixia Country in style. Additionally, airboats in Motian Realm were more classical as all the airboats here were related to the dragon. Take Zhang Tie’s fleet as an instance, they were all in the shape of a dragon or dragon’s sons and grandsons. The commonest shape of airboat here was Bixi, which was like a huge tortoise, the sixth son of Dragon King. It was said that Bixi liked carrying heavy loads. Therefore, airboats were usually made in the shape of Bixi, which was said to be steadiest and could avoid misfortunes.

After coming to Motian Realm for a few days, Zhang Tie became more and more confident that this world had an inseparable relationship with Hua people and Taixia Country. Perhaps in far-ancient times, Hua people here lived together with those in Taixia Country. Due to some reason, the two worlds were separated.

‘If the relationship between two worlds could be figured out, perhaps I would expose one of the biggest secrets in the history of Hua people.’

Many whims occurred to Zhang Tie. Not until he heard footsteps from behind did Zhang Tie slightly become composed. He then turned around as he saw Leng Manxue walking towards him in the rain.

Leng Manxue was in a black professional robe; instead of an outfit. Being reflected by her black robe, this woman’s face looked a bit fair in Zhang Tie’s eyes.

“Ha, General Deacon Leng, why are you here…” Zhang Tie greeted the beauty.

“Aren’t you here too? Why not attend the handover ceremony?” Leng Manxue asked Zhang Tie as calmly as before, despite the faint complex moods that Zhang Tie could identify. When she watched the city, her eyes carried a depressive and gloomy mood.

“Someone should be a watchdog here in case of trouble. Therefore, I requested to come over here from head…” Zhang Tie explained seriously which sounded perfect. Even Zhang Tie realized that he was more and more good at finding excuses for killing time. These days, Leng Manxue appeared being gloomy; however, Zhang Tie was not influenced. No matter what, this city was just like a hostel in his life trip, which was meaningless for him. No matter which party did this city belong to in the future, it had nothing to do with Zhang Tie. He only cared about improving his overall strength.

This trip to Motian Realm was regarded as a tough and fantastic survival training, Zhang Tie aimed at maximizing his ability and achievement in this survival training. After that, he would find his way back. By contrast, nothing else counted, even the rise or fall of Dragon Emperor Immortal Palace.

“Is that real?” Leng Manxue looked at Zhang Tie with crystal clear eyes as she unveiled Zhang Tie’s lie at once.

“Hehhehheh, you know, the rite is too boring. It’s just killing time. Additionally, I’m not familiar with the people of Unicorn Immortal Palace. Therefore, I didn’t join in the fun!” Zhang Tie said frankly as he shrugged.

Watching Zhang Tie’s sincere look, Leng Manxue’s eyes turned a bit tender. She turned around and continued to look at the city in the fog and rain. Her eyes narrowed emotionally as if she was murmuring, “You know, Heavenly Square City is more beautiful when it’s snowing. In November, if you’re here, you will see that heavenly waterfall outside the city would not freeze. However, the water’s steep fall would be blown away by the strong wind. Before those water drops fall down, many of them would become snowflakes flying in the sky; some would even become large areas of misty fog. As long as the sun comes out, you would see flying snowflakes under the rainbow…”

“Yes, it’s indeed beautiful, I could imagine!” Zhang Tie answered as he stroked his chin and took a look at Leng Manxue, saying, “General Deacon Leng, you must have seen a lot of such scenes…”

“Hmm, as I was born in Heavenly Square City, I have been used to this city…”

“Aah, so your parents must be in Heavenly Square City too!”

“No, they aren’t. They’re immortal generals of Dragon Emperor Immortal Palace!”

Zhang Tie then continued with a smile. “Oh, they must be in Dragon Emperor Big Domain. General Deacon Leng is coming back home soon…”

After being silent for a while, Leng Manxue opened her mouth, “They’re not in Dragon Emperor Big Domain either. When I was 3 years old, they had been killed by demons in a war between Dragon Emperor Immortal Palace and demons…”

Zhang Tie’s heart raced as he hid his smile and watched Leng Manxue seriously, “Sorry to hear that…”

“It’s fine. I will take revenge for them one day!” Leng Manxue said stubbornly and decisively as she looked up.

“Revenge?”

“Yes, it’s a famous fire demon immortal general of Yanmo Palace who killed them. That demon immortal general is still alive. One day, I would catch up with him and chop off his head…”

‘An earth knight would like to kill a semi-sage level knight?’ Zhang Tie thought Leng Manxue could barely succeed in her whole life. Because that semi-sage demon general immortal was also making progress all the time. Perhaps it would still be alive if Leng Manxue promoted to a semi-sage level knight one day; however, by then, the demon immortal general might have been a sage-level knight or on a higher level.

This world was cruel. In many cases, you could not be the center of the world because you had a lofty and great target. Conversely, the merciless reality would crush your last target time and time again. As a result, you would have to lower your head in front of reality and gradually become a wuss. You would be humble and trivial in front of your target. When you grew old and retrospected to those lofty targets that you set at a young age, you would feel ashamed of those high ambitions. Everyone would encounter such a situation, not only Leng Manxue. Even knights were not an exception. ‘If I didn’t have Castle of Black Iron and could survive the demon disaster in Waii Subcontinent, I believe that I would probably be the same kind of person.’

Zhang Tie didn’t talk to Leng Manxue about that because he felt that this woman’s weak frame was only propped by such a belief. If he ruined her belief, it was nothing different than destroying this woman. Given this point, even being a knight, Leng Manxue was like the other common women. The only difference between them was that the belief of common females was not revenge but love. If a man destroyed the belief of a woman, that woman would fall apart. It was also the reason that many common women turned decadent and felt like committing suicide after suffering great frustration in love. Among Zhang Tie’s wives, Bai Suxian and Yan Feiqing were such examples. After suffering such a spiritual strike, Bai Suxian was decadent for quite a long period of time while Yan Feiqing shifted to cultivation and viewed all the men in the world as sh*t.

“Good, ambitious! You have to take revenge for the death of your parents. Demon, fire immortal general, so what? He also has a head and a d*ck. As long as we chop off his head and d*ck, we would win, even if we have to do it 10 times or 100 times. In this world, nobody, not even demons are undefeatable…” Zhang Tie plucked up courage for Leng Manxue righteously while thumbing up, “If General Deacon Leng wants to revenge, don’t forget to call me there. I’d like to join the fun and kill some demons…”

Zhang Tie’s “dirty words” won Leng Manxue’s frown successfully. However, she didn’t turn around and leave there; instead, she took a look at Zhang Tie as she asked, “Do you want to promote to an immortal emperor one day?”

“You bet, every immortal general wants that!”

“Hmm, take a good look at them then!” Leng Manxue suddenly pointed at those commoners who were entering the airboats in the rain as she continued using his battle qi, “When in the immortal palace, someone said His Majesty Dragon Emperor once mentioned that these commoners were the key for an immortal king to promote to an immortal emperor. Without them, nobody could break the bottleneck facing immortal king, humans or demons. Perhaps you would know their value one day…”

After hearing Leng Manxue’s words, Zhang Tie became stunned, ‘Immortal king is supreme immortal general or sage-level knight. According to Leng Manxue, the secret for breaking through sage-level knight are these commoners?’

‘No way!’

‘What does that mean?’

In a split second, numerous questions occurred in Zhang Tie’s mind…

“It’s said that the secret method is in the core region of Mountain Ruins…”

As her voice was still lingering around Zhang Tie, Leng Manxue had almost left the deck…

“Aah, why did you tell me this?” Zhang Tie asked Leng Manxue, causing her slightly slow down.

“I just feel that you should know that. Perhaps you have known it before; however, you forgot about it. As for the reason, just take it as an award for your refusal of Unicorn Immortal Palace’s favor and the fact that you’ve killed so many immortal generals of Star Emperor Immortal Palace a few days ago…”

After saying that, Leng Manxue in black had disappeared.

Standing on the deck with a dumbfounded look, Zhang Tie watched the direction where Leng Manxue disappeared, then the lines of commoners entering the airboats in the rain, in meditation…

Besides immortal soldiers, nuns and deacons, their families and some strong-willed followers of Dragon Emperor Immortal Palace also followed them away, over 30,000 people in total. By noon, all of them and immortal generals of the branch of Dragon Emperor Immortal Palace in Heavenly Square City had left Heavenly Square City for Dragon Emperor Big Domain with wealth that they got from Zi Clan Castle by over 70 Unicorn Immortal Palaces in the heavy wind and rain…

When these airboats flew off Heavenly Square City, a businessman in a high storey of a hostel near the airport inside Heavenly Square City was looking at these airboats through the window of his room gloomily in the rain. With one hand on a piece of rune jade plate, he sent out a message in a split second——The nine immortal generals and over 30,000 people of the branch of Dragon Emperor Immortal Palace in Heavenly Square City have left Heavenly Square City by 74 airboats.

After a short while, the businessman got a reply when the airboats faded away.

——Don’t worry, none of the immortal generals could return to Dragon Emperor Big Domain. Your mission is over. You could leave Heavenly Square City for the Immortal Palace.
