One week later, over 70 airboats finally arrived at Dragon Emperor City, the core city of Dragon Emperor Big Domain on April 7, the 3584th year of Emperor NvWa's Calendar in Motian Realm after a long journey of over 20 days across numerous air regions and Brokenstars Ocean.
At the sight of Dragon Emperor City, Zhang Tie had been shocked by the 10,000-m high immortal palace in the center of Dragon Emperor City.
The dense airboats in the sky almost reminded Zhang Tie of the scene that he saw in Xuanyuan Hill. Undoubtedly, this was the largest city and population center that Zhang Tie had seen since he came to Motian Realm. This place was definitely much more prosperous than Heavenly Square City.
"Is this Dragon Emperor City?" Zhang Tie asked Leng Manxue.
"Yes, Dragon Emperor City is one of the few huge cities in Motian Realm with over 100 million population. In Motian Realm, very few cities could have such a large population except for some immortal palaces!" Leng Manxue explained as she nodded. Closely after that, she turned around and asked Zhang Tie, "How do you feel about this place?"
"Hmm, not bad, not bad!" Zhang Tie replied perfunctorily.
To be honest, after seeing Xuanyuan Hill in Taixia Country, Zhang Tie had long been numb about these huge cities. Additionally, no matter how large and prosperous these cities were, they could never match Xuanyuan Hill. Xuanyuan Hill was the center of humans.
"Dragon Emperor City is the immortal city of Dragon Emperor Immortal Palace. Of course, it's not bad …" Leng Manxue emphasized as she was not satisfied with Zhang Tie's perfunctory reply.
Zhang Tie just replied with a smile. All the other immortal generals in the command module nodded one after another.
"Oh, General Deacon Leng, where are we going after arriving at Dragon Emperor City? There should be no immortal palace for us to station here …" Liu Yong scratched his head as he asked a question that everyone else was concerned about.
Hearing Liu Yong's question, the God Generals exchanged a glance with each other.
Leng Manxue became hesitant for a second before saying, "We're here to report in Dragon Emperor City. As for the details, it depends on the arrangement of the higher-ups. After all, besides our immortal palace in Heavenly Square City, there should be many more immortal generals from other immortal palaces …" Leng Manxue paused as she raised her voice, "But don't worry. No matter what, your monthly salary would not be reduced. Neither would your positions in the immortal palace decrease!"
"Ah, that means we might be separated. Can we not separate?" Liu Meng continued to ask.
"Enter the immortal palace and become an immortal general of the immortal palace. You will follow the arrangement of the immortal palace and go wherever you're needed …" Huang Baimei in black robe leisurely entered the door of the command module.
"Head Huang …" All the others greeted Huang Baimei.
Huang Baimei nodded as he continued to walk over here. After glancing over the others' faces, he stopped at Zhang Tie's brilliant face for a second. Closely after that, he watched Liu brothers as he slightly slowed down his tone, saying, "It's not easy for us to return to Dragon Emperor Big Domain from Heavenly Square City safely. The immortal palace doesn't allow immortal generals to betray the will of the immortal palace. As long as we can survive, we will reunite with each other one day. Remember to keep your words to yourself …"
"Yes, sir!" Liu Meng replied in a low voice as he dared not refute.
"I've already received a signal from the ground. Send a signal to all the airboats behind us. Let's dock there …" Huang Baimei said as he looked at the harbor in the distance as he waved his hand towards his crew.
…
20 minutes later, they saw over 30,000 people from Heavenly Square City getting off the airboats one after another in the port of Dragon Emperor City. After receiving an ID plate, a bottle of water and a piece of dried rations, they were led by deacons in uniforms of Dragon Emperor Immortal Palace and taken away by those vehicles being pulled by lizard-like huge beasts.
However, Zhang Tie's group was different. After getting off the airboat, those commoners who came here from Heavenly Square City watched the scenery around Dragon Emperor City. Although they looked a bit confused, most of them were full of longing. Those deacons of Dragon Emperor City who welcomed them here were polite. Additionally, their vehicles were not shabby. Everything was well-arranged.
After watching these people arriving here safe and sound, Zhang Tie finally became reassured.
"Hey, where do you think the Hall Master and that person are talking about?" Liu brothers approached Zhang Tie stealthily as Liu Yong asked Zhang Tie using battle qi. Meanwhile, he threw a glance over there.
After getting off the airboat, they were greeted by two immortal generals in the uniform of Dragon Emperor Immortal Palace. One of the two immortal generals was a bit older with white beard and triangular eyes. With a solemn look, he was not easy to deal with. There were nine silver dragon lines on the cuffs of his black robe like Huang Baimei. The other one was a female immortal general who looked a bit easy-going. She was in LV 7 silver dragon line like Zhang Tie; however, she was just an earth immortal general.
The scene looked a bit tranquil. Leng Manxue led Xun Zizhou and that female immortal general to hand over the materials brought from Heavenly Square City by the airboat and the household registration materials of those people who came here with the airboat. Huang Baimei was talking with the other immortal general who was on the same level as Huang Baimei. As they were talking in battle qi, the others almost didn't know what they were talking about.
Zhang Tie found that Huang Baimei looked mild just now with a faint smile. However, after talking with them for a short while, Huang Baimei's smile disappeared as he slightly frowned and turned solemn. However, the one who was talking with Huang Baimei looked the same as if Huang Baimei owed him thousands of element crystals.
"How do I know what head and that person are talking about?" Zhang Tie threw a glance at Liu Yong, causing Liu Yong to reveal a bashful smile as he touched his nose.
However, when Zhang Tie said that, Zhang Tie had heard all the content of the conversation between Huang Baimei and that person. As long as they were within the range of Zhang Tie's spiritual energy, Zhang Tie could never find any secret.
"General Manager Yu, can't you make an exception for us? I remember that it was not like this before …"
"Head, please understand our difficulty. Dragon Emperor Immortal Palace is not as powerful as before. We could pay 10 element crystals per month to these newly recruited immortal generals, which means that we've already used up all of our storage. Dragon Emperor City is indeed a bit short of resources. Additionally, you're not the only immortal generals who have been evacuated to Dragon Emperor Immortal Palace. Many people are waiting for the arrangement of the elders. Therefore, please bear with it for a few days. When Head Huang finishes his report, you will be relieved of your tasks …"
"When should I report to the Elders' Committee?"
"Head, settle down your subordinate immortal generals first. When the Elders' Committee finishes their work, they will notice you!" “
