Hearing the sound of the door being unlocked, Zhang Tie's heart raced as the two bizarre energies which he had tried to gather many times in the air dispersed in a split second.
After that, Zhang Tie opened his eyes as he saw the two immortal generals of Supervision Department who took him here entering the cell.
"Zhang Tie, you can leave now!" The two immortal generals looked calm and didn't look ferocious. One of them even revealed a faint smile in a very polite manner.
Over the past 3 days, although Zhang Tie was in the cell, he knew clearly what happened in Dragon Emperor City these days. It was simple. Zhang Tie only needed to travel to some senior boites in Dragon Emperor City during supper time and listen to what those immortal generals were talking about in the boites. In this way, he would know clearly what was happening in Dragon Emperor City.
"Spiritual travel" was the name that Zhang Tie gave to his special ability to travel in all directions and see through everything silently. This name was very appropriate. This skill also became one of Zhang Tie's latest trump cards.
Ruan Shaopeng, Elder Shi's disciple, was reproached by Elder Shi in the public in Immortal Generals Department. Closely after that, Elder Shi ordered him to enter secluded cultivation for one year.
As the culprit of this event, before Zhou Baifei recovered from his wounds, he had been assigned a trivial errand by Immortal Generals Department. Closely after that, he was dispatched to a small place called Baian City in the west of Dragon Emperor Big Domain. If there was no accident, it would be difficult for Zhou Baifei to have a bright future in Dragon Emperor Immortal Palace.
In this matter, the one who benefited the most was himself. This was something that Zhou Baifei would never have thought of.
These days, Zhang Tie's name had already spread over Dragon Emperor City. Almost everybody had heard about him. Dragon Emperor City was so large. As a new immortal general of Dragon Emperor Immortal Palace, the news that he slapped the disciple of the five elders of Dragon Emperor Immortal Palace and made him pass out on the street had long spread over the city. Even commoners in Dragon Emperor City had heard about it. Zhang Tie immediately became the most famous one among all the new immortal generals of Dragon Emperor Immortal Palace.
In this event, Zhang Tie's image was not bad. He was both overbearing and righteous. Many immortal generals applauded him when they drank in boites.
As for the others, they were not affected much.
Zhang Tie knew that Lu Tianqiang and Xun Zizhou were received by Elder Shi in the Immortal Generals Department the day before yesterday. Elder Shi asked them some questions; especially about Zhang Tie and Xun Zizhou. The two people told Elder Shi honestly. After they left, the Immortal Generals Department accepted them and arranged their errands. The two people were not put in an important position; neither were they ignored. Their errands were even better than that of Zhou Baifei — — they would be trained in Dragon Emperor City for a period before being dispatched to other places.
…
After hearing that he could leave, Zhang Tie got off the bed calmly. After flicking his clothes, he nodded towards the two immortal generals of the Supervision Department, saying, "Thanks …". Closely after that, he walked out of the cell frankly.
Outside the cell, the other five immortal generals who were "invited" here together with Zhang Tie were still watching Zhang Tie with widely opened eyes. They had not imagined that Zhang Tie could leave here earlier than them.
"Ahh, why do we have to stay here when he could leave? It's him who attacked us that day …" an immortal general shouted in an unconvinced manner.
"How dare you shout? Do you know how big a trouble you've caused in Dragon Emperor City by releasing your battle qi smoke? If not for the sake of Elder Shi, you would have lost a layer of skin …" the immortal general who was smiling at Zhang Tie just now reproached him with a cold look, causing the other immortal generals to be silent in a split second.
"See you …" Zhang Tie said with a smile towards those immortal generals as he walked out of the cell under the gaze of those people.
…
The two immortal generals directly led Zhang Tie to a parlor on the ground, where Zhang Tie met Guo Zhengxian, the president of the Supervision Department of Dragon Emperor Immortal Palace.
"Zhang Tie pays his respects to you, President Guo …" The two immortal generals of the Supervision Department had long told Zhang Tie the identity of this person. Therefore, Zhang Tie didn't need to pretend to be confused anymore. After glancing at the two golden dragon patterns on the cuff of that person, Zhang Tie opened his mouth.
The president of the Supervision Department looked at his 50s. With a slightly chubby face, he looked kind. Given his look, few people could imagine that he was a powerful figure in the Supervision Department. He was a wind immortal general who was trusted by Elder Xia.
When Guo Zhengxian saw Zhang Tie for the first time, he was also shocked by Zhang Tie's look. However, as an immortal general, of course, he didn't believe that Zhang Tie was only 17 or 18 years old. Zhang Tie might have cultivated some secret method or taken some rarities. However, given Zhang Tie's young look, it indicated that Zhang Tie's real age was definitely not too high.
"Not bad, not bad. Elder Xia is right about you!" President Guo nodded as he invited Zhang Tie to take a seat. Closely after that, he put it straightforwardly, "It's you who started the fight; however, the other party provoked you verbally. Therefore, we'll put you in jail for 3 days in the name of brawl …"
"Thanks!"
"Before Huang Baimei resigned, he had recommended you to Elder Xia. What you did this time was upright, decisive, and fearless. Elder Xia admires you very much. Today, I'm here to ask you on behalf of Elder Xia if you're willing to join the Supervision Department!"
Everything was within Zhang Tie's expectation. Therefore, Zhang Tie nodded, saying, "Thanks to the recommendation of Head Huang and Elder Xia, I would like to join the Supervision Department and make my contribution to Dragon Emperor Immortal Palace!"
"Good!" President Guo revealed a faint smile as he said, "If you join the Supervision Department now, you will serve as the director of Dragon Emperor Pavilion. How do you feel about that?"
"I wonder about the position of the director of Dragon Emperor Pavilion." Zhang Tie asked. To be honest, he didn't know about the position of the director of Dragon Emperor Pavilion. However, it sounded great.
Guo Zhengxian said with an extremely solemn look, "Dragon Emperor Pavilion used to be His Majesty's residence in Dragon Emperor City. Over these years, His Majesty's whereabouts were unknown. He didn't return to Dragon Emperor Pavilion anymore. As there are many items that His Majesty used to use in Dragon Emperor Pavilion, they should be taken care of by someone. It's also one of the responsibilities of Supervision Department. The director of Dragon Emperor Pavilion has a great responsibility as he's the focus of everyone in Dragon Emperor Immortal Palace.
'F * ck, isn't the director of Dragon Emperor Pavilion just a watchman? Why does it sound so high? Additionally, it's not the gate of an important place, but the gate of a place that might have become a cultural relic. F * ck … '
Zhang Tie swore inside. If he was an ordinary immortal general, he might have long changed his face and left at the sight of such a "high position". Thankfully, Zhang Tie didn't care about this position at all. He didn't join Dragon Emperor Immortal Palace for promotion and wealth; instead, he had a higher pursuit. After figuring out the other party's meaning, Zhang Tie recovered his composure at once.
However, he couldn't be too calm; otherwise, why would an immortal general who didn't ask for too much about the position join Dragon Emperor Immortal Palace? It would arouse people's suspicion. As the old saying went — — there must be a demon behind something abnormal.
Zhang Tie didn't want to be a demon in the eyes of the elders of Dragon Emperor Immortal Palace.
It was time to test Zhang Tie's "disguise" talent again.
Although being calm inside, Zhang Tie changed his face at a stroke as if he was going to stand up and leave at once. Although he didn't leave the room, he revealed a struggling and contradictory look. After a short while, Zhang Tie nodded in a seemingly difficult manner, saying, "Fine, please tell Elder Xia that I would like to serve as the director of Dragon Emperor Pavilion!"
Guo Zhengxian was observing Zhang Tie's look carefully. When she saw Zhang Tie finally nodding, she revealed a faint smile, "A jade can't be made into a tool if it's not sharpened. This position is not for the rest of your life. You will know it later on. It's Elder Xia's practice for you …"
Zhang Tie finally looked a bit better as he nodded heavily, saying, "I see!"
"Here's the transfer order and appointment from the Supervision Department!" Guo Zhengxian said as she took out a scroll which was shorter than 30 cm and a jade plate. Without opening them, she directly gave them to Zhang Tie, saying, "If there's nothing else, prepare for it. Go to Dragon Emperor Pavilion the day after tomorrow!"
"Fine!" Zhang Tie put away the scroll and the jade plate.
The jade plate of deputy head of Dragon Emperor Pavilion had been taken away after he came to Dragon Emperor City. This jade plate represented his identity and could be contacted by others.
…
After a few minutes, Zhang Tie calmly walked out of the prison of the Supervision Department in the east city of Dragon Emperor City.
When he walked out of the prison, it was already dusk, which was the same time when he was taken away 3 days ago. The so-called three days' imprisonment was really three days' imprisonment.
"Ahh, you're out …"
The moment Zhang Tie came out of the prison, he had heard an exclamation as Liu brothers, Jiang Ruoxin and Ji Yuelan appeared in front of Zhang Tie at a stroke. Closely after that, the four people surrounded Zhang Tie.
"What did I say? The eldest brother is the eldest brother. Only after we left you for less than half a day, your fame has spread over Dragon Emperor City at a stroke. You've become the No. 1 immortal general in Dragon Emperor City. We've all heard about you from others. That's awesome! You're much fiercer than me …" Liu Meng directly thumbed up towards Zhang Tie as he watched Zhang Tie with admiration.
To be honest, given Zhang Tie's current battle strength, he was definitely one of the top ones even in Motian Realm. Of course, it was normal for him to stand out. Zhang Tie was like that in Heavenly Square City and Dragon Emperor City. No matter how low-key he was, as long as something happened to him, Zhang Tie would immediately shine and become the most eye-catching one.
"I thought you would suffer inside. Given your look, you seem to be living a good life!" Ji Yuelan said as she pouted her mouth after looking at Zhang Tie up with her beautiful eyes.
Zhang Tie didn't say anything; instead, he just showed the jade plate that he had just obtained to the four people. The words "Supervision Department" on the jade plate made them widely open their eyes at once.
"F * ck, eldest brother, you've already joined the Supervision Department? That's too fast …"
"No wonder you could come out of there in only three days. It turns out that we're already a family …"
"I've just joined!" Zhang Tie looked at the sky as he put away the jade plate and touched his belly, saying, "I've not eaten for three days. Let's go. You choose a place, I will treat you …"
"Oh, what's your position in the Supervision Department?" Jiang Ruoxin asked out of curiosity.
"Director of Dragon Emperor Pavilion …"
After hearing Zhang Tie's words, Liu brothers, Jiang Ruoxin and Ji Yuelan changed their looks at once. Liu brothers were straightforwardly amazed; however, Jiang Ruoxin and Ji Yuelan slightly changed their looks before turning into astonishment …
If not Zhang Tie's disguising talent and his extraordinary insight, he might not discover the subtle changes in Jiang Ruoxin and Ji Yuelan's looks at all.
It seemed that Jiang Ruoxin and Ji Yuelan didn't know Dragon Emperor Pavilion very well. Otherwise, they wouldn't look so strange. Zhang Tie thought as he became curious about the purpose of Jiang Ruoxin and Ji Yuelan for joining Dragon Emperor Immortal Palace for the first time …
