The moment Zhang Tie arrived at the conference room, he greeted Liu brothers and the others. Closely after that, Leng Manxue and Huang Baimei arrived. When Huang Baimei arrived, all the immortal generals in the conference room had stood up, including Zhang Tie.
"Take a seat, take a seat …" Huang Baimei was good-tempered. He didn't put on airs at all as he waved his hand and told them to take a seat. After that, he looked around at them before sitting at the head of the conference table. After that, he watched Zhang Tie on his side, "Deputy head, how's your cultivation these days?"
It was out of Zhang Tie's imagination that Huang Baimei would talk to him first. After hearing Huang Baimei's question, Zhang Tie replied with a solemn look, "Cultivation emphasizes on dripping water wears through a stone. Diligent like a seedling in spring; if you don't see any growth, you will make progress in the future. Indulgent like a whetstone; if you don't see any damage, you will make progress in the future. "
Previously, Huang Baimei just asked Zhang Tie casually; unexpectedly, the moment Zhang Tie opened his mouth, all the others in the conference room became spirited. Even Ji Yuelan who pretended to ignore Zhang Tie turned around and watched him. Jiang Ruoxin's and Leng Manxue's eyes flickered as they threw a deep glance at Zhang Tie. As for the others, Xun Zizhou was the most exaggerated one. After hearing Zhang Tie's words, Librarian Xun who looked like an old master raised his eyebrows as he took out a small notebook and copied Zhang Tie's words.
Liu brothers who had talked with Zhang Tie just now watched Zhang Tie as if they were looking at their idol, making Zhang Tie bashful.
At the sight of the others' reactions, Zhang Tie realized that he had "leaked" another classical proverb unintentionally.
After being stunned for a short while, Huang Baimei glanced at Zhang Tie from head to toe once again before opening his mouth, "I've long heard that deputy head has a profound mind and could write a chapter. Deputy head could easily make such profound words sound thought-provoking. It's really pitiful for such a talent to only be a deputy head. When we arrive at Dragon Emperor Big Domain, I will recommend deputy head to the Church of Elders to serve in the Supervision Department of the immortal palace …"
After hearing Huang Baimei's words, even Zhou Baifei who pretended to be calm couldn't help but throw a glance at Zhang Tie out of jealousy.
The Supervision Department of Dragon Emperor Immortal Palace was a powerful agency directly under the Church of Dragon Emperor Immortal Palace. It was responsible for inspecting and training immortal generals across Dragon Emperor Immortal Palace. With high power, Zhang Tie was pretty dignified at the lower levels and could touch the core powers of the immortal palace. Even if Zhang Tie's level didn't change, his power and status would immediately surpass that of Huang Baimei.
"Cough cough, I was just speaking casually. Hall Master Huang, please don't flatter me …"
Even Zhang Tie felt a bit bashful about standing on the shoulder of a giant. Therefore, he hurriedly declined.
"That's a deal. When we arrive at Dragon Emperor Big Domain and report to the elders, I will definitely recommend a deputy head to the elders!" After saying that, Huang Baimei took a look at the others as he raised his voice, "Not only deputy head, as long as you're capable and loyal to the immortal palace, of course, you will have a chance to make a name for yourself!"
Huang Baimei was comforting all the immortal generals at present. These days, after leaving Heavenly Square City, although they didn't say it, they were a bit worried. Because all the cities in Dragon Emperor Big Domain had been governed by immortal palaces and immortal generals. As they were new to Dragon Emperor Big Domain from Heavenly Square City to Dragon Emperor Big Domain, it was impossible for Dragon Emperor Big Domain to give them the positions of immortal palaces and immortal generals in those cities to them. In this way, their current levels and titles were basically nominal. Most likely, they would be separated and assigned to some unimportant positions the moment they arrived at Dragon Emperor Big Domain. By then, it would be hard for them to make a name for themselves.
Element crystals were one of the inducements for them to join the immortal's palace; however, it was not the only reason. It was just like how the manager of a business group might not have a high salary; however, the benefits and resources that the manager could enjoy were definitely not limited to the salary. If the manager did well, those element crystals would mean nothing to him.
After watching all the immortal generals nodding their heads, Huang Baimei changed his tone as he put out the purpose of this meeting, "However, before that, we have to arrive at Dragon Emperor Big Domain safe and sound first!"
"Head Huang, is there any danger on this trip?" Xun Zizhou put away his notebook as he asked Huang Baimei a question.
"There might be; there might be no danger. However, we have to make corresponding preparations!"
"What do you mean, Head Huang?" Zhou Baifei asked.
"You should remember the series of disputes between Star Emperor Immortal Palace and Dragon Emperor Immortal Palace in Nine Heavens Big Domain in the past months; especially in Heavenly Square City where we've just left, some immortal generals of Star Emperor Immortal Palace died in Heavenly Square City. However, Star Emperor Immortal Palace didn't make any response until now. It's definitely not the style of Star Emperor Immortal Palace. Therefore, I'm afraid that Star Emperor Immortal Palace would not give it up!"
"Head Huang, are you worried that Star Emperor Immortal Palace would attack us?" Jiang Ruoxin asked with a slight frown.
"It's very unlikely for Star Emperor Immortal Palace to attack us directly. If two emperor-level human immortal palaces fight each other, it would be a big trouble. After Dragon Emperor Immortal Palace evacuated from Nine Heavens Big Domain, the Church of Dragon Emperor Immortal Palace, Unicorn Immortal Palace, Force Emperor Immortal Palace and the other immortal palaces have already reached a tacit agreement. Those immortal palaces have already expressed their standpoint to Star Emperor Immortal Palace. They would never see Star Emperor Immortal Palace provoking disputes by encroaching the territory of Dragon Emperor Immortal Palace or killing immortal generals of Dragon Emperor Immortal Palace for no reason. If Star Emperor Immortal Palace wants to wage war against Dragon Emperor Immortal Palace, it would not only face us, but the greater part of human immortal palaces!"
'This might be one of the "agreements" that the Church of Elders and the other immortal generals of Dragon Emperor Immortal Palace have reached in exchange for those cities of Dragon Emperor Immortal Palace.' Zhang Tie thought as he asked, "Head Huang, do you mean Star Emperor Immortal Palace would do something secretly instead of in the open?"
"Yes!" Huang Baimei nodded as his face turned solemn, "As our airboat flew in populated places these days, it was safe. However, from this afternoon, our airboat will arrive at Brokenstars Sea. Only by passing through Brokenstars Sea could we arrive at Dragon Emperor Big Domain. Brokenstars Sea is the most mysterious and perilous region. If Star Emperor Immortal Palace wants to do something to us, Brokenstars Sea would be the best choice. Therefore, we have to prepare for it …"
"From today on, we will be divided into three teams. We will take turns to patrol outside the airboat every day. As long as we find any abnormality, we should give a warning at once. Deputy head and I are water immortal generals who are the most powerful among us. Therefore, we will each form a team. The others will form a team under the leadership of General Deacon Leng. Each team will take turns to be on duty for one day. What's your opinion?"
What's your opinion? "All the others nodded as such an arrangement was proper enough. As Zhang Tie and Huang Baimei were the most powerful ones in the immortal palace, it was reasonable for them to form a team. All the other immortal generals would form a team so as to take care of each other.
"If so, I will be the first one to be responsible for patrolling. You can practice this formation in the airboat. If there's an accident, you could defend against the enemy …" Huang Baimei said as he took out a strange item and gave one to each immortal general at present.
It was a longan-sized, bronze-colored bead being densely covered with runes and bizarre patterns. When Zhang Tie was observing it in his hand, Liu brothers and Ji Yuelan had already put the bead into their central foreheads. Closely after that, they made a bizarre hand gesture. Closely after that, the bead had turned into a golden light and entered their central foreheads. Zhang Tie became stunned as he exclaimed inside, 'F * ck, is this a golden secret item?'
In the end, all of them had put it into their central foreheads, except for Zhang Tie. Scratching his head, he watched the others bashfully, "Erm … what's this? How do I use it?"
"Ah, haven't you used formation bead?" All the others exclaimed as they watched Zhang Tie with an unbelievable look …
