Elder Muray and Elder Muyu of Huaiyuan Palace were executing tasks. Instead of staying in Blackwater Base, they were assigned to guard a Class A city in Xingan Prefecture in Huanzhou Province for a long time. In peacetime, Class A cities in Taixia Country didn't need so many garrisons; however, especially in the theater of operations, it was necessary to assign garrisons to Class A cities in Taixia Country.
Although Huanzhou Province was a theater of operations, it was far away from the frontline. Additionally, it was in the east of Helan Mountain Range. Xingan Prefecture was in the northeast of Huanzhou Province which was close to Military Province. It was also the place where Blackwater Base stayed for the first time. Therefore, Elder Muray and Elder Muyu's task was very easy. At least before demons broke through Helan Mountain Range, Xingan Prefecture in Huanzhou Province was less likely to be raided by demon knights. It could be said that this task was relatively easy and less dangerous.
After contacting Elder Muray and Elder Muyu, Zhang Tie learned that they had been assigned to be garrisons in Xingan Prefecture soon after he became a scout. Due to their responsibilities, they didn't even catch up with the first raid of Taixia knights under the command of Zuoqiu Mingyue.
Zhang Tie smacked his lips as he felt that this arrangement was pretty interesting. As he took the most dangerous task of being a scout, Elder Muray and Elder Muyu who came from the same clan as him would be relatively safe and relaxed.
Zhang Tie felt pretty comfortable about such an arrangement. He had to admit that even in the holy war, many places in Taixia Country were still humane. For instance, if there was only one son in a family, he didn't need to join the army. If two brothers served at the same time, if one died, the other could retire in advance …
After contacting Elder Muray and Elder Muyu, Zhang Tie contacted Bai Suxian and told her that he had come back today.
"You're back?"
After sending the message, Zhang Tie soon received Bai Suxian's reply.
"Yes, I've just come back 1 minute ago. Where are you now?"
"I'm on the airboat assigned by Lord Guangnan's Mansion!"
"Airboat? Lord Guangnan's Mansion also assigned people to join the war … "
"Of course, the airboat of Lord Guangnan's Mansion has already arrived 2 months ago. It's my second uncle's team. There's an airboat and over 30 knights of Lord Guangnan's Mansion. Where are you?"
"I'm going back to my room to take a rest!"
"Hmm, wait a minute, I will come over right away!"
…
Black Dragon Airboat was still connected to Blackwater Base as the "dormitory" of knights in Northeast Military Region. After ending the contact with Bai Suxian, Zhang Tie returned to Fantasy No. 76 cabin of Black Dragon Airboat.
After opening the hatch door with the key, Zhang Tie found that the room remained unchanged even though he had not been here for over 4 months. The two master-level tracing feathers in the room were still there, which indicated that nobody had been here over the past 4 months. All the cabins in the airboat were equipped with a special air purification system, which prevented poisonous smoke, dust and suspended particles from entering. Therefore, even though nobody cleaned here over the past 4 months, the room was still clean.
Over the past 3 days, Zhang Tie had neither slept nor taken a bath. Therefore, the moment he returned to his cabin, Zhang Tie had taken off his clothes and started to take a bath.
As water source was limited, it needed to be replenished regularly. Therefore, it was very luxurious to take a bath in the airboat. Even though Zhang Tie was an earth knight, his daily water consumption was also limited. Thankfully, it only took Zhang Tie less than 5 minutes to finish his bath. The moment Zhang Tie finished his bath, he had heard a knock on the door. Given the sound, Zhang Tie had known that it was Bai Suxian.
After wrapping a bath towel around his waist and wiping his hair with another towel, Zhang Tie walked to the door and opened it.
As Zhang Tie had imagined, Bai Suxian was standing outside. The moment Zhang Tie opened the door, Bai Suxian had entered and closed the door. After that, she gave a long kiss to Zhang Tie.
Absence makes the heart grow fonder. After not seeing Bai Suxian for 4 months, Zhang Tie found that he was a bit thrilled.
After separating from Zhang Tie, Bai Suxian watched Zhang Tie affectionately as she put one hand on Zhang Tie's chest, saying, "Do you know how worried I was when you told me that you were injured last time …"
"It's fine. It's not fatal!" Zhang Tie smirked as he started to move his hands.
"What's wrong?"
"I was ambushed by Gao Tianzhao and some b * stards!"
"Ahh, being ambushed by a shadow knight …" Bai Suxian who started to blush became startled as she forgot about Zhang Tie's hands at once. 'An earth knight was ambushed by a shadow knight. Zhang Tie is really lucky or has a great ability …'
"Ahh … come on, have you recovered? Let me see …"
"I've already washed myself and waited for you. Tell me …" Zhang Tie smirked in a weird way.
"My … second uncle knows that you're back. He wants to see you … now!" Bai Suxian said with a bit difficulty as she pressed Zhang Tie's hands.
After hearing Bai Suxian's words, Zhang Tie stopped at once as he watched Bai Suxian with a bitter look, saying, "I've already taken off my pants. How could you tell me this …"
"Puchi …" Bai Suxian threw a glance at Zhang Tie whose bath towel had fallen onto the ground with a smile, saying, "You deserve it. Who told you to be so lascivious …"
Zhang Tie revealed a bitter smile as he took out a set of decent clothes from his portable space-teleportation equipment. No matter what, he was Bai Suxian's family member. Bai Suxian's second uncle should be a powerful figure in Lord Guangnan's Mansion. If he didn't treat him well, it would be a bit impolite. "Oh, why were you on the airboat of Lord Guangnan's Mansion just now? Don't you need to perform tasks these days?"
Bai Suxian let out a sigh, saying, "My second uncle met Ye Qingcheng when he arrived a few days ago. On the next day, Ye Qingcheng had transferred me to the airboat of Lord Guangnan's Mansion to follow my second uncle's command!"
Zhang Tie understood it. Of course, the princess of Lord Guangnan's Mansion should stay with the people of Lord Guangnan's Mansion in order to make people reassured. The so-called privileges existed everywhere. However, it was already commendable that Lord Guangnan's Mansion didn't transfer the princess away from the frontline.
Like a wife, Bai Suxian helped Zhang Tie put on his clothes carefully.
"Oh, who led Taiyi Fantasy Sect to the theater of operations?"
"It's Feng Yexiao, one of the four elders of Taiyi Fantasy Sect!"
"Are there some young men in Taiyi Fantasy Sect called 9 talents?"
"The 9 talents are the 9 elite disciples among black iron knights of Taiyi Fantasy Sect. Above the 9 talents, some earth knights of Taiyi Fantasy Sect are called the 5 peaks. Feng Yexiao has brought all his favorite disciples here..."
"Is his favorite disciple surnamed Wen?"
"Yes, he's called Wen Qingkong. He likes to show off. Do you know him?" Bai Suxian threw a glance at Zhang Tie out of curiosity.
'No wonder!'
Zhang Tie understood it at once, 'No wonder Wen Qingkong would bite me like a mad dog the moment he caught sight of me. It turns out that he's Feng Yexiao's disciple …'
'This theater of operations is really boisterous. All the young and old are here!'
