Castle of Black Iron

When Zhang Tie launched a strike, the forces that he had arranged in the Forbidden City and the Dragon Emperor City took actions too.

Even those elders and presidents didn’t know that the 300 immortal generals of Dragon Teeth Army that Zhang Tie arranged to protect the production of Dragon Emperor Medicament in Cloudriver Castle had already returned to the Forbidden City silently when Zhang Tie and they watched the large battle formation of Dragon Teeth Army.

The 300 immortal generals were divided into three teams. Leng Manxue led one team of 200 immortal generals to the five major departments when Zhang Tie started the battle. Liu Yong and Liu Wu respectively led a team of 50 immortal generals to confiscate the properties of Xia Yangming and Shi Zhongyu in their private residences.

At the same time, under the leadership of Xu Gang, all the soldiers in Dragon Emperor City had left their camps and started to maintain order and impose a curfew inside the city.

In an instant, the entire Dragon Emperor City was filled with thunder-like clip-clops as soldiers and flying urans could be seen everywhere across the city. Dragon Emperor City was in an emergency.

…

“At the order of His Majesty, we’re catching rebels in Dragon Emperor City and Forbidden City. Xia Yangming, Shi Zhongyu, Tang Shenghou and Huo Xianlai have betrayed Dragon Emperor Immortal Palace. From now on, all the people across the five major departments should stick to your own positions. Nobody is allowed to leave. If there’s anyone who dares violate this order or cast spells on people, all the immortal generals in Dragon Emperor Immortal Palace could join hands to kill them…”

Leng Manxue in metal outfits was in the air above the five major departments with a dragon-pattern token in hand as her clear and indifferent voice spread over each nook and corner of the five major departments.

200 immortal generals of Dragon Teeth Army had already formed a heavenly and earthly battle formation using formation beads and surrounded the five major departments of Dragon Emperor Immortal Palace.

Of course, there were more than 200 immortal generals in total in the five major departments. However, these immortal generals didn’t have formation beads; additionally, not all of them were under the control of Xia Yangming and Shi Zhongyu. Therefore, the 200 immortal generals of Dragon Teeth Army could definitely stabilize the situation facing the five major departments.

After hearing Leng Manxue’s warning, all the immortal generals of the five major departments were shocked and confused. They didn’t know why the entire Forbidden City suddenly started to hunt rebels. Even so, most of the immortal generals followed the order instinctively and stuck to their own positions.

“Don’t believe her. His Majesty is in trouble. Dragon Teeth Army and some elders had already rebelled Dragon Emperor Immortal Palace. His Majesty, Xia Yangming and Shi Zhongyu and some presidents were trapped in the camp of Dragon Teeth Army. Follow me out of here and save His Majesty, charge forward…”

Supervision Department and Immortal Generals Department suddenly became chaotic while more than 10 immortal generals suddenly broke out of the two departments. Some immortal generals in other major departments also propped up against them by stirring up trouble. They all wanted to break out of the five major departments. These immortal generals immediately collided fiercely with the 200 immortal generals under the leadership of Leng Manxue…

…

With loud sounds “bang…”, the gates of Xia Mansion and Shi Mansion were broken into pieces while some servants who looked arrogant were thrown inside the gates while wailing and struggling…

At the same time, Liu Yong and Liu Meng rushed into Xia Mansion and Shi Mansion while brandishing their huge battle axes, followed by two teams of immortal generals.

The mansions of the elders of Dragon Emperor Immortal Palace were all in a prosperous region inside Dragon Emperor City, which was less than 3 miles away from each other. This saved a lot of trouble for Liu Yong and Liu Meng.

“At the order of His Majesty, we’re going to investigate and confiscate the properties of Xia Mansion (Shi Mansion). Everyone in the mansion, kneel down! If any of you dare resist, you are dead…”

When they broke into the gates, Liu Yong and Liu Meng roared immediately so that the servants and neighbors of the two mansions could hear it clearly.

“Who the hell dares find trouble here? How could elder Xia…” A head of guards inside Xia Mansion rushed towards Liu Yong with a sword. Before he finished his words, he had been split into two halves by Liu Yong, spraying blood and guts over the ground…

Of course, an elder’s private mansion would be guarded by immortal generals. However, only 3-5 fierce and earth immortal generals guarded an elder’s private mansion in normal times. Therefore, a team of 50 immortal generals of Dragon Teeth Army was enough to crack down them.

…

“Search over each store of Xia Clan and Shi Clan…” Xu Gang sent an order while pointing at a store on a prosperous avenue in Dragon Emperor City by a horsewhip.

“Yes, sir…” Two teams of fierce fighters instantly rushed into a cloth store and a private bank. In a split second, the cloth store and the private bank were in chaos as all the bosses and waiters were bound and taken out of there…

…

The battle in the five major deparmtents of Forbidden City didn’t last long.

All the immortal generals of the five major departments were something. Facing the different explanations of Leng Manxue and the immortal generals who wanted to break out of the five major departments, those immortal generals instantly knew which party was real——Leng Manxue was His Majesty’s trusted subordinate who had the token of His Majesty. Dragon Teeth Army was also founded by His Majesty. Additionally, the head of the Dragon Teeth Army was Huang Baimei who was also His Majesty’s trusted subordinate. On this occasion, how could Dragon Teeth Army and the trusted subordinates of His Majesty betray His Majesty? Apparently, those people who wanted to break out of the five major departments were telling a lie.

Combining the information from the presidents and elders who didn’t rebel, the rest immortal generals of the five major departments instantly joined hands to kill 7-8 immortal generals who wanted to create chaos, and broke out of the five major departments. All the other immortal generals who wanted to escape were caught alive.

When Ying Gucheng arrived at the Forbidden City, the chaos had already been suppressed.

…

Inside the camp of Dragon Teeth Army, it only took Zhang Tie a few minutes to beat up Huo Xianlai who was also a heavenly knight with the mace weighing over 4,000 kg.

When Zhang Tie was a shadow knight, he had already been able to kill a demon heavenly knight, not to mention now. Even though Zhang Tie didn’t trigger his kinetic strike skill, he could still defeat Huo Xianlai for sure.

Whenever Zhang Tie brandished his mace towards Huo Xianlai, it would feel like an overwhelming mountain. As a result, Huo Xianlai could only try his best to resist Zhang Tie’s strike in butting heads.

Zhang Tie’s physical strength was too terrifying; additionally, his speed was faster than that of Huo Xianlai. As a result, Huo Xianlan couldn’t even dodge his strike; nor escape away. On this occasion, Huo Xianlai would spurt out blood whenever he withstood Zhang Tie’s strike…
