Before leaving, batches of knights bade farewell to Zhang Tie solemnly. Many knights even left a token to Zhang Tie before leaving.
After almost half an hour, all the knights finally left Zhang Tie and went back to their own homes. Not until then did the sky above Centralpillar Mountain recover its tranquility.
"Ahh, what happened just now?" Bai Suxian and the others who were waiting for Zhang Tie flew over here.
Zhang Tie replied with a smile as he put away the last tokens, including a delicate golden saber, a crystal abacus, a copper eight diagrams waistband and a red tooth of an unknown wild beast. The last ones who left them to Zhang Tie were Marvelous Mathematician, the head of Golden Saber Sect in Yunzhou Province, an independent earth knight in Taixia Country, the head of Liu Clan in Anzhou Province and a barbarian knight leader in Firecloud Mountain in South Border of Taixia Country.
Zhang Tie had received over 200 tokens and remote-sensing communications finger rings. As for the other tokens and items, he had already put them into his portable space-teleportation equipment.
Perhaps, compared to various achievements in the Dongtian of Great Wilderness Sect, Zhang Tie's greatest achievement was to make friends with so many knights this time. Of course, the reason why so many knights appreciated him so much was that Zhang Tie indeed "saved their lives"; the most important reason was that Zhang Tie's moral standing and various gossips made these knights highly trust Zhang Tie. All the knights knew that even if they gave the token to Immortal Qianji, given Immortal Qianji's moral standing, he would never order them to do something outrageous or kill them. Additionally, if they could do it well and get closer to Zhang Tie and have a channel to contact him, they would also benefit a lot from Zhang Tie. Zhang Tie might also become their capital.
Immortal Qianji was a powerful divine dominator and the inventor of fiery oil and all-purpose medicament. Even the crown prince of Xuanyuan Hill wanted to make friends with him. Who would refuse such a chance to make friends with him in the public? Even barbarian knights in South Border knew Zhang Tie's power, not to mention knights of Taixia Country.
"Character is like the money you deposit in the bank. If you don't take it out, no matter how much money you deposit, it will be useless. People can't distinguish between a good character and a bad character, and it won't bring much benefit to others. However, when you deposit enough money, so much that you don't need to take out your passbook, people who don't know you will change their attitude towards you. When more people change their attitude, you will have the capital to do great things. This is called the outbreak of character!" Zhang Tie told Bai Suxian with a smile. After finding that the others were still confused, Zhang Tie revealed a smile as he held Bai Suxian's hand stealthily, "Just now, I've won the bet with that sage-level knight. Now, he has already lost the entire Dongtian of Great Wilderness Sect to me. By the way, I've saved the lives of these knights!"
"What?" Celestial Treasureflame, Bai Runshan, and Celestial Woodbuilding widened their eyes.
"What? That person in the Dongtian of Great Wilderness Sect has already been yours?" Bai Runshan asked in an unbelievable way.
"Yes, but it's not the place to talk about it. As you've been waiting here for one night, let's talk about it on the airboat …"
After exchanging a glance with each other, Celestial Treasureflame and the others suppressed their shock as they nodded, saying, "Fine!"
"Ahh, what's this? Why do you have a bracelet? It's a bracelet composed of two snakes. It looks very delicate …" Bai Suxian asked as she held Zhang Tie's hand. After glancing at it carefully for a short while, Bai Suxian became more confused, saying, "Why do I feel that these two snakes are so similar to the two snakes in the underground world just now? One is golden while the other is silver. However, they seem to have two small horns on their heads and tails …"
Celestial Treasureflame and the others also looked at Zhang Tie. At the sight of the bracelet on Zhang Tie's left hand, they all revealed a strange look …
"Let's talk about it on the airboat …"
Zhang Tie replied with a smile as he held Bai Suxian's hand and flew towards the airboat in the distance, closely followed by the others. Bai Suxian didn't find that Zhang Tie had recovered his battle strength; instead, she was still injecting her spiritual energy into Zhang Tie's body. Zhang Tie didn't stop her …
What happened in the Dongtian of Great Wilderness Sect last night was completely a farce for Zhang Tie. However, this farce brought Zhang Tie an achievement that was out of Zhang Tie's imagination. When he was flying towards the airboat, Zhang Tie was thinking about this event as he finally understood why there were so many liars in this world. Sometimes, a performance of a liar could bring such a great achievement that it could make people faint. It was more effective than killing 100 demon knights.
'Actually, it's not bad for me to play the role of a liar once in a while!' Zhang Tie told himself inside.
…
3 hours later, Zhang Tie, Bai Suxian, Immortal Deyang, Bai Runshan, Celestial Treasureflame and Celestial Woodbuilding were sitting in a lounge on the airboat. Drinking tea water, they were listening to Zhang Tie's narration about what happened after he returned to the underground space.
Of course, Zhang Tie didn't tell them that he had already become the head of Great Wilderness Sect; neither would he tell them that this crisis was just a duet between him and Yun Zhongzi. What he told them was what had happened to the other knights.
Neither Bai Runshan nor Immortal Deyang doubted that Zhang Tie could win this bet. Given Zhang Tie's military exploits and ability as a divine dominator, nobody knew how many trump cards Zhang Tie had. Based on Zhang Tie's ability, it was not impossible for Zhang Tie to break out of the realm of a sage-level knight and two heavenly weasel-level boas after being besieged by a sage-level knight and two heavenly weasel-level boas.
Over these years, Zhang Tie had given them so many "surprises", even "fright". As a result, those who were familiar with Zhang Tie had long formed a sense of blind reliance and trust towards Zhang Tie as if Zhang Tie was omnipotent.
After hearing Zhang Tie's words, even Bai Suxian was convinced. Bai Suxian clapped her hands as she said happily, "Ahh, after hearing your words, I finally understand why that sage-level knight called Yun Zhongzi would look that way when he flew out of the underground space first. He didn't care about us at all; instead, he just threw a glance at us before flying away. It turns out that he lost the bet with you and couldn't show off anymore …"
