Being able to do as he pleased and not needing to hide his strength was a delightful thing. It was just like how a tycoon no longer needed to hide his savings. He could take out his money and use it however he wanted. For anyone, this was a delightful thing.
It was a sunny day. Flying in the sky at 7 times the speed of sound, Zhang Tie experienced the pleasantness and pleasure of flying unscrupulously and displayed his ability casually. In this state, Zhang Tie's fretfulness seemed to have been blown away by the strong airflow in the sky.
It was thousands of miles from Jinwu City to Iron-Dragon Sect. It took Zhang Tie less than 1 hour to arrive at the sky above Xuantian Peak.
Almost one week later, the influence of the black invitation cards from the top three sects gradually appeared in Iron-Dragon Sect. Although Iron-Dragon Sect didn't make any trouble, the thousands of meters long queue outside the mountain gate of Iron-Dragon Sect had been greatly shortened.
An airboat was suspending above Xuantian Peak. Given the style and style of the airboat, Zhang Tie knew that it was from Xuanyuan Hill. It seemed that the crown prince was not afraid of being known that he dispatched people to Iron-Dragon Sect. Perhaps, the crown prince purposefully did it to express that the crown prince was still on his side at least at this moment.
However, at this moment, Zhang Tie felt a bit better no matter whether the crown prince did it out of sincerity or scheming. It's better than hitting a man when he's down. It's not easy for the crown prince to make such a decision.
After returning to Iron-Dragon Sect, Zhang Tie greeted all the elders of Iron-Dragon Sect. After that, he solemnly received the one who came to visit him on behalf of the crown prince in a beautiful pavilion on Xuantian Peak of Iron-Dragon Sect.
Zhang Tie thought that he was an imperial attendant of the crown prince or a powerhouse; however, Zhang Tie had not imagined that the one who represented the crown prince was an elegant scholar with three strands of long beard and a jade-bone feather fan in hand.
Only after throwing a glance at that person, Zhang Tie had known his battle strength. The literati had only lit 34 surging points on his shrine and spine. He had just lit LV 9 surging points. His battle strength was out of Zhang Tie's imagination.
Although having a low battle strength, that person looked graceful. If someone else held a fan in Youzhou Province at this season, he must look a bit awkward; however, the white feather fan looked pretty harmonious in this person's hand. Just like how old-fashioned gentlemen in Western Continent would always take an umbrella with them when they went out, whether they needed it or not.
After bowing towards Zhang Tie, that man sat on the guest's seat. After that, a maid served him tea. Closely after that, she closed the door and left, leaving only Zhang Tie and Zhang Tie in the pavilion.
"May I know your name, sir?" Zhang Tie asked with a smile.
Now that he could represent the crown prince, he must not be a commoner. Even if he was a commoner, Zhang Tie would not despise him. Therefore, he still treated him politely without any arrogance.
"I'm surnamed Fang, Fang Qingming!" Mr. Fang put it straightforwardly. The moment he opened his mouth, Zhang Tie had a good impression of him.
"Oh, it's Mr. Fang. Sorry for not recognizing you!" Zhang Tie cupped his hands.
"I wouldn't dare. I'm just doing what I can for the crown prince!" Mr. Fang replied politely.
When Mr. Fang talked with Zhang Tie, he kept observing Zhang Tie with his slim and shiny eyes. When he found that Zhang Tie was still calm and calm without being flurried at all, Mr. Fang had a higher evaluation about Zhang Tie inside. Very few people across Taixia Country could be as calm as Zhang Tie after receiving the black invitation cards of the top three sects.
"When His Highness was at Immortal Qianji's age, he was definitely not as calm, powerful and famous as Immortal Qianji. Immortal Qianji is really …"
As soon as this thought appeared in Fang Qingming's mind, Fang Qingming was slightly shocked. Then, he forcibly expelled this rebellious thought out of his mind.
"I wonder what the crown prince wants to teach me by assigning you to Iron-Dragon Sect?" Zhang Tie put it straightforwardly without beating around the bush.
"His Majesty always pays close attention to immortal. In Xuanyuan Hill, immortal had not fully recovered due to the effect of the thunder of nirvana. I'm here for His Majesty. I wonder whether immortal has fully recovered or not?" Mr. Fang waved his feather fan casually; however, he asked Zhang Tie in a meaningful way.
Of course, Zhang Tie understood Mr. Fang's words. However, as Zhang Tie had long made a decision, of course, he didn't want to hide anything anymore. "Thanks for your concern, His Highness. When in South Border, I've already recovered due to a lucky chance …"
Fang Qingming let out a sigh as he watched Zhang Tie with gleaming eyes, saying, "Immortal, you've suffered your injuries for the sake of Taixia Country and all the people in the world in the holy war. You've made great meritorious deeds. Nobody could deny it. If Immortal has not fully recovered, it would be extremely rude for the top three sects to send black invitation cards to Immortal Qianji. His Highness would never allow such a rebellious thing to happen!"
It was an obvious hint. As long as Zhang Tie said that he had not fully recovered or pretended that he had not fully recovered, His Highness who was far away in Xuanyuan Hill would use his power and relationship to stop the duel 100 days later. Relatively speaking, this was an excuse to save Zhang Tie's face to a certain extent and also to reject the sect's black invitation cards. If Taiyi Fantasy Sect didn't want to be condemned by all the people in Taixia Country and have a bad reputation, they would never force Zhang Tie to fight Immortal Qianji when he had not fully recovered.
If I've not fully recovered, of course, I could ignore the black invitation cards; however, I've indeed fully recovered. Additionally, I've already shown it in the Dongtian of Iron-Dragon Palace. If I want the three top sects to stop with such a reason, the three top sects would definitely be unwilling to accept it. If the three top sects want a national medical sage to check my body, how could I cheat them with such a lie? If I refuse to do that, wouldn't the rest of the world know that I'm lying? By then, Iron-Dragon Sect would definitely become a laughingstock and the reputation and dignity of Jinwu Palace would be completely destroyed! "Zhang Tie shook his head resolutely.
Although Zhang Tie didn't attach much importance to honor and reputation, it didn't mean that Zhang Tie would like to ruin them …
