"Ah …" Zhang Tie exclaimed as he opened his eyes. When he woke up, he found Tang Mei was sitting in front of him. Supporting her chin with one hand, she was watching him with widely opened, beautiful eyes out of curiosity as if she had been waiting for him for a long time.
Tang Mei's clothes were as white as snow. Her black hair was like a waterfall. There was a stove and a tea set on the tea-table in front of her. The dense aroma of tea seemed to be lingering in the air. Zhang Tie was in a small pavilion. There was an apricot wood outside the small pavilion. The flowers in the apricot wood were blooming like fire.
After opening his eyes, Zhang Tie met Tang Mei's eyes.
'What happened? Why am I here? Hasn't Taixia Country been destroyed? Haven't I fought to death in Xuanyuan Hill? '
Until now, Zhang Tie could still clearly remember the realistic feeling when his body was shattered into pieces when he collided with the Far-ancient Morality Stele controlled by the Demon Overlord for the last time. It seemed that Zhang Tie faintly saw Xiaolei dying heroically together with him after his death …
'Am I dreaming? Or is this the world after one's death?'
At this moment, Zhang Tie's mind was in chaos as he became dumbfounded.
"Brother, are you awake?" Tang Mei asked tenderly.
"Where are we?"
"Emperor NvWa's Palace!" Tang Mei blinked her eyes.
"Pah …" Zhang Tie slapped his face.
Feeling a burning pain on his face, Zhang Tie knew that this was not a dream. At the same time, his hands were a bit wet. Touching his face, Zhang Tie found that his face was covered with tears. Not only his face, even the front part of his clothes was wet. After sensing it, Zhang Tie found that he was in his peak state when he drank Nine-Heavens Immortal Spring just now.
"How long has it been?" Zhang Tie was still a bit muddle-headed as he asked subconsciously.
"Not long, just one and a half days!" Tang Mei replied with a smile.
"I mean what time is it now?"
"It's September 23, the 3593rd year of Emperor NvWa's Calendar!" Tang Mei said as she passed a fragrant handkerchief to Zhang Tie tenderly, "I don't know what happened to you just now. You suddenly started to cry!"
Zhang Tie didn't take the handkerchief; instead, he became dumbfounded.
'September 23, the 3593rd year of Emperor NvWa's Calendar?
Wasn't this the time when he first came to Emperor NvWa's Palace? 'What's going on? Haven't I already left Motian Realm? Additionally, it's been dozens of years. I've experienced so many things. How could I return to Motian Realm after my death at this moment?' Could it be that everything was an illusion?
After being stunned for a short while, Zhang Tie unconsciously moved his eyes onto the empty quilt in front of the teapoy. His heart suddenly raced as he looked at the empty cup in front of him, then at Tang Mei. Swallowing his saliva, he asked Tang Mei with a stutter, "What … what … tea did you give me?"
After saying this, Zhang Tie suddenly became stunned. Because he suddenly remembered that he asked the same question when he woke up. Unconsciously, everything in front of him seemed to overlap with that experience.
He still remembered Tang Mei's answer …
"It's nothing. It's just a leaf of the far-ancient Mongolian tree soaked in Nine-Heavens Immortal Spring …" Tang Mei said casually.
In a split second, Zhang Tie couldn't even utter a word. He felt that he had caught something faintly; however, he didn't understand it.
"Brother, do you blame me for letting you drink Nine-Heavens Immortal Spring?" Tang Mei asked as she fixated onto Zhang Tie's face with bright eyes, "But brother, you've already promoted to a supreme-level immortal general. If you don't drink Nine-Heavens Immortal Spring, you could never break the barrier between deities and humans. Without breaking the barrier between deities and humans, you couldn't sense the realm of thoughts; neither could you form your first immortal chakra."
Tang Mei was still the same as before. However, Zhang Tie had already known that Tang Mei was Emperor NvWa. Of course, he didn't think that someone forced Tang Mei to do that.
"What about the leaf of the far-ancient Mongolian tree? What's its function?" Zhang Tie asked Tang Mei meticulously.
Not until then did Zhang Tie suddenly realize that he didn't remember much about the leaf of the far-ancient Mongolian tree in his memory. It seemed that a mysterious force was making him forget about the function of the leaf of the far-ancient Mongolian tree.
Of course, tea leaves came first, followed by water. This was common sense. The leaf of the far-ancient Mongolian tree soaked in Tang Mei's Nine-Heavens Immortal Spring had been very important. However, after Zhang Tie woke up, he forgot about it. Later on, he didn't have a deep feeling about the leaf of the far-ancient Mongolian tree. Now that he thought about it, he felt that it was very unusual.
"Brother, did you have a very, very long dream just now? Did everything in the dream feel real?"
'Was it a "dream"?' Zhang Tie didn't believe it until now. Therefore, he could only nod and respond to Tang Mei's question in silence.
"That's the function of the leaf of the far-ancient Mongolian tree. One dream in the far-ancient Mongolian tree, one dream for 100 years. It's as real as lightning and dew!" Tang Mei watched Zhang Tie with a smile as she said, "The leaf of the far-ancient Mongolian tree doesn't belong to Motian Realm; instead, it's a secret rarity left by Emperor NvWa's Palace. According to the legend, the far-ancient Mongolian tree has existed since the beginning of the chaos. The leaf of the far-ancient Mongolian tree is born with a powerful time force. It could enable people to experience everything in the dream and see what would happen in the future. It's my gift for you, brother. I wonder whether you like it or not …"
'It turns out that I experienced everything in the "dream". The leaf of the far-ancient Mongolian tree made me experience a long dream which was similar to the trouble-reappearance situation in the real world …'
'Everything in Taixia Country hasn't happened yet!'
'I'm not dead; I haven't even returned to Taixia Country. Everything could be saved!'
After being silent for a short while, Zhang Tie suddenly jumped up and screamed. He burst into laughter while dropping off tears. Waving his hands and feet, he rushed out of the pavilion and ran in the apricot blossom woods like a lunatic as he roared, "Hahaha, I'm not dead; I'm still alive; I'm still alive; I'm still alive; I'm still alive; hahaha, Demon Overlord, Meng Shidao, wait for me; wait for me; hahaha …"
In madness, Zhang Tie rushed to the front of Tang Mei with a flushed face. Under Tang Mei's dumbfounded look, he cradled Tang Mei and spun her dozens of times in the air. The moment he put her down, he had kissed her face for more than 10 times forcefully. "Hahaha, I like this gift so much; I like it so much. It's the best gift that I've ever received. Thank you; thank you. You're my baby, my lucky angel …"
Tang Mei's face turned red in a split second as she became pretty bashful as she whispered, "Brother …"
At this moment, Zhang Tie completely forgot about Tang Mei's identity as he tightly cradled her and kissed her lips forcefully …
…
7 days later, on October 1st, Zhang Tie returned to Tigerback Mountain in high spirits.
The moment Bian Heng entered the parlor, Zhang Tie had rushed forward and gave Bian Heng a hug, scaring Bian Heng so much that he changed his face at once as he hurriedly pushed Zhang Tie away, saying, "What? What? I'm not a woman …"
If not knowing that Zhang Tie's sexual orientation was normal, Bian Heng might have long driven Zhang Tie away by battle qi.
Zhang Tie moved two steps back as he watched Bian Heng seriously, saying, "I'm sorry …"
Bian Heng became more confused as he glanced at Zhang Tie from his head to his toe, asking, "What have you done to me?"
"Nothing. I just feel that I miss you a bit after not seeing you for a few days …" Zhang Tie replied as he shook his head and sat on his seat. In the real "dream", Zhang Tie took Bian Heng to Taixia Country; however, he indirectly let Bian Heng jump into the fire pit. When Zhang Tie "fought to death" in Xuanyuan Hill, Bian Heng was traveling across Taixia Country. If everything in the dream was real, Taixia Country and Hua people would finally be destroyed, Bian Heng would definitely not have a good ending. Therefore, Zhang Tie felt sorry for Bian Heng.
"Tang Mei, it must be Tang Mei …" Bian Heng changed his face as he suddenly recalled something. Closely after that, he glared at Zhang Tie as he gnashed his teeth and almost rolled up his sleeves, saying, "You look red as if you've taken aphrodisiac. Otherwise, why would you suddenly say sorry to me? Is it because you have a guilty conscience?"
"Ahem ahem …" Zhang Tie turned solemn at once as he said, "Elder brother, you think too much. I'm here to ask you whether you want to leave Motian Realm with me or not …" Zhang Tie's face turned solemn at once.
After hearing Zhang Tie's words, Bian Heng recovered his composure. After glancing at Zhang Tie stealthily, he stroked his beard with two fingers and said with a solemn look, "Erm … I need to think about it carefully. I'm not as smart as you. If I want to leave with you, even if you sell me, I would have to count the money for you."
Watching Bian Heng's trick, Zhang Tie sneered inside. He even knew what Bian Heng was going to say next, "Elder brother, how about taking another girl with you? She'd better be a delicate girl. With a partner, it would be difficult for me to cheat you. What do you think about this method?" Bian Heng's eyes lit up. Zhang Tie smiled inside.
Bian Heng became tongue-tied as he widely opened his eyes. Watching Zhang Tie who was smiling, he felt like seeing a ghost; because he found that Zhang Tie had blurted out all the words that he had prepared in advance …
