3 days later, the airboat finally arrived at Fire-Dragon Bounty Territory.
The almost 1,000 m long imperial airboat slowly landed on the landing field of Xuantian Peak of Iron-Dragon Sect. Numerous people were waiting for it on the ground.
When the airboat landed, the hatch door was opened. Zhang Tie appeared at the hatch door with a smile.
"Welcome back, Sect Master!" All the disciples and elders of Iron-Dragon Sect greeted Zhang Tie at the same time. The disciples of Iron-Dragon Sect bowed deeply towards Zhang Tie while the elders of Iron-Dragon Sect bowed deeply towards Zhang Tie.
As for the disciples of Iron-Dragon Sect, given Zhang Tie's military exploits at the bank of Weishui River, it was indeed a triumph for him to return to Iron-Dragon Sect at this moment. Not only that, as Zhang Tie's trump card as a divine dominator was exposed to the public, all the disciples of Iron-Dragon Sect would have a bright future. In Taixia Country, the only sect with a divine dominator before Zhang Tie was Penglai Immortal Island. With the secret inheritance of divine dominator, Penglai Immortal Island became one of the top 7 sects in Taixia Country. The influence of the news that the master of Iron-Dragon Sect was a divine dominator on Iron-Dragon Sect was immeasurable.
Among the crowd, there were disciples of all peaks of Iron-Dragon Sect, Lu Zhongming, Lin Huanxi and Lin Huanxi, Mountain Lifting Hermit, elders of Huaiyuan Palace, Zhang Taixuan, Zhang Tie's wives, Donder, Barley, Sharwin, Bagdad, Leit, Hista and other good brothers of Zhang Tie.
Almost all the core figures on Zhang Tie's side in Youzhou Province had arrived.
Li Tao and Lu Yishan didn't appear among the crowd because they were still in the theater of operations.
When Zhang Tie served as Weiji General in the theater of operations, Li Tao and Lu Yishan were Zhang Tie's family generals. In case of being criticized by others and affecting the morale of the theater of operations, Zhang Tie didn't assign them high positions. After Zhang Tie resigned, Lu Yanyu took charge of the rear affairs of the theater of operations. Li Tao and Lu Yishan had been promoted by Lu Yanyu due to their meritorious deeds and their relationship with Zhang Tie.
Mountain Lifting Hermit and Elder Muray and Elder Muyu of Huaiyuan Palace had been arranged to return to Youzhou Province by Zuoqiu Mingyue when Zhang Tie was receiving medical treatment in Xuanyuan Hill.
After exposing the fact that Zhang Tie was severely injured as a divine dominator, the entire Youzhou Province and Fire-Dragon Bounty Territory had become the focus of attention across the world. Additionally, Zhang Tie needed more people. It was also a wise move to have the elders of Iron-Dragon Sect and Huaiyuan Palace return to Fire-Dragon Bounty Territory and Youzhou Province. Of course, Zuoqiu Mingyue would not make a mistake on this issue.
It was reasonable for Zhang Taixuan to greet Zhang Tie in Fire-Dragon Bounty Territory as the grand elder of Huaiyuan Palace and his current fame and meritorious deeds.
Zhang Tie then got off the airboat, closely followed by his parents, Zhang Yang, Linda, Bai Suxian and Yan Feiqing.
They had already known Bai Suxian. When Yan Feiqing got off the airboat, almost everybody at present fixated onto Yan Feiqing; however, they dared not look at her for too long. As a heavenly knight, Yan Feiqing's qi field was extremely powerful and oppressive for all of them.
Watching Yan Feiqing getting off the airboat, Donder winked at Zhang Tie as he stealthily gave a thumbs up to Zhang Tie, which meant — — brat, you're really something to have sex with a heavenly knight!
Zhang Tie then introduced Yan Feiqing to them.
With so many people, it was pretty boisterous. It took them almost 15 minutes to get off the airboat and finish greeting each other.
After greeting each other, Zhang Yang took Zhang Tie's parents to have a rest. Yan Feiqing also wanted to communicate with those women of Iron Heart Palace alone. Zhang Tie told Donder to take a rest with the other guys in Iron-Dragon Sect while he talked with those clan elders of Huaiyuan Palace and Zhang Taixuan in the Suzerain's Pavilion.
After Zhang Tie's female disciples served tea and left, Zhang Taixuan opened his mouth in the Suzerain's Pavilion, "Elder Mushen, you've promoted to a shadow knight at the bank of Weishui River and killed numerous demon knights. You even killed a demon prince with a rod. After hearing the news, all the disciples of Huaiyuan Palace became spirited. Everybody in the world knows about Huaiyuan Palace. It's all thanks to Elder Mushen …"
The advantage of exposing the relationship between Yan Feiqing and Zhang Tie was that everybody in the world knew that Zhang Tie had stayed with Yan Feiqing in the tower of time for 6 decades. Everybody thought that Zhang Tie was cultivating diligently in the tower of time. Therefore, it was not abrupt for Zhang Tie to promote to a shadow knight; neither would it arouse any suspicion. The only thing that surprised them was that Zhang Tie hid his ability as a divine dominator.
Although Zhang Taixuan didn't ask Zhang Tie about his ability as a divine dominator, Zhang Tie still felt that he should tell the clan elders about it in case of any misunderstanding.
After promoting to a divine dominator, I could challenge high-level knights at a higher level. However, I'm not powerful among knights. After coming to Taixia Country, facing the stress from the Gobbling Party and being wanted by the Supreme Court, if I exposed my trump card rashly, I'm afraid that I might bring a disaster to Huaiyuan Palace instead of frightening my opponents. Therefore, I didn't expose my trump card as a divine dominator. Hopefully, clan head and elders could forgive me! " Zhang Tie cupped his hands towards Zhang Taixuan, Mu Yuan, Mu An, Mu Lei, Mu Yu and Mu En as he said sincerely.
"Of course, of course. As it's a major event, it's indeed abrupt for you to expose it rashly. It's like a kid passing by the downtown with gold in his hand. It's reasonable for Elder Mushen to be mature and prudent!" Zhang Taixuan nodded with a smile as if he was reasonable. All the other elders also nodded and agreed with Zhang Tie's action.
"Oh, Elder Mushen, these are the items that you gave us before coming to the theater of operations. We will give them back to you …" Elder Muray and Elder Muyu exchanged a glance with each other before taking out the space-teleportation finger rings that Zhang Tie gifted to them and putting them on the table in front of them. "The silver secret items are in the finger rings. Now, these items have returned to their owners!"
Zhang Tie replied with a smile. He didn't take their items; instead, he took out 4 more space-teleportation finger rings. After that, he stood up and gave one finger ring to each of the other elders and Zhang Taixuan, saying, "I've gained a lot in the theater of operations from demons and knights of Heavens Reaching Church. I couldn't use them all. Therefore, I will give them to you. As it's in the holy war, elders are the pillars of Huaiyuan Palace. The more powerful you are, the safer Huaiyuan Palace would be. After the holy war, you could give them back to me …"
