Located in the east of Taixia Country, Qiongzhou Province was one of the central provinces in Taixia Country. In Taixia Country, Qiongzhou Province was also known as the Province of Islands. There were tens of thousands of islets and reefs in the open waters of Qiongzhou Province, large or small. Those islets and reefs in Ewentra Archipelago were much smaller than those islets and reefs in the open waters of Qiongzhou Province.
Based on the map, those islands and reefs in the outer waters of Jingzhou Province were like pieces of a small subcontinent scattered in this vast sea area. This sea area was called the Jade Ocean. In order to catch Zhu Liang, Li Butian and Yang Zhigang had been playing hide-and-seek on these uninhabited islands of Qiong Hai Sea for over two months.
If one continued northward from the Jingzhou Province and passed by the Mozhou Province and the Gaozhou Province, they would arrive at the Youzhou Province.
The Mozhou Province was a middle province that was on the same level as the Jingzhou. If the Gao Province was already a lower province, then the Serene Province further north was naturally a lower province as well.
After knowing that his general direction was correct, Zhang Tie let out a deep sigh. Although there were two provinces between Youzhou Province and Youzhou Province, it was only over 17,000 miles by waterway. It was not far for Zhang Tie.
In the evening, Zhang Tie, Li Butian and Yang Zhigang chatted with each other for a whole night on the island. From Li Butian and Yang Zhigang, Zhang Tie learned a lot about Taixia Country. The two people were also interested in the exotic customs of Waii Sub-continent.
They chatted in the middle of the night until the next daybreak. After taking a short nap, they became spirited once again.
On the second sunrise, Yang Zhigang chopped off Zhu Liang's head and protected it with medicament. After that, he put it in a waterproof oilcloth bag. Li Butian was in an open area outside the cave. He took out a Cloud Piercing Arrow. It was placed in the sky.
After an explosion, the Cloud Piercing Arrow flew high into the sky and exploded more than 300 meters above the island. The red smoke formed a smoke-shaped pattern of a red longsword. It lingered for a long time.
In order to chase after Zhu Liang, Li Butian and Yang Zhigang even hired a small airship which was waiting for their dispatch at any time. The small airship was hovering in the nearby air zone. After receiving the signal from Li Butian and Yang Zhigang, it would soon come here.
Sure enough, less than half an hour after the Cloud Piercing Arrow was released, a small airship appeared in the distant sky and flew over.
"Brother Zhang Tie, don't you want to go with us? When you arrive at Qionghai City, you can take a train from Qionghai City to Youzhou Province in a few days. "Li Butian released the cloud-piercing bolt. He then turned around and said to Zhang Tie, who was standing at the entrance of the cave and watching them work.
Li Butian and Yang Zhigang were going to Qionghai City in Qiongzhou Province, which was the nearest city to Youzhou Province, to receive the reward. Zhang Tie was going northward to reunite with his family members in Youzhou Province. The three of them met by chance and were about to part ways in the blink of an eye.
"No, I'll be training outside during this period of time. I've got some enlightenment about cultivation. There are so many islands in Qionghai Sea. It's a good environment and tranquil. I want to comprehend and cultivate here for a few more days before going back! "Zhang Tie told a white lie.
At this moment, Zhang Tie had long been eager to return to Youzhou Province. However, he had to refuse Li Butian and Yang Zhigang's suggestion. Because it would take him longer to go back to Youzhou Province. If he told them that he was going to "swim" to Youzhou Province from here, the two people might be scared. In this age, even a black iron knight who excelled at swimming could swim 2000-3000 miles in the water. Zhang Tie could only force a bitter smile when he heard the news about his master's alchemist demon.
If his master and his wife fought, Zhang Tie didn't know whom he should help.
According to Li Butian and Yang Zhigang, Zhang Tie's master had massacred the entire Mojiang City in Songzhou Province. It could be said to be earth-shattering, and at the same time, insane. Besides those dead knights, over 170,000 commoners were killed by his master in Mojiang City. Over 20,000 Han Clan in the 11th generation of Mojiang City in Songzhou Province were killed by Zhang Tie. All of them were killed by Zhao Yuan, including chickens and dogs.
In Zhang Tie's impression, although Zhao Yuan was arrogant, he was not a cold-blooded killer, not to mention killing tens of thousands of commoners. When in Hidden Dragon Island, Zhao Yuan was almost beaten by some servants in the street as he entered their mansion by mistake. At that time, Zhao Yuan didn't think about doing anything to those people. Those people were still alive and well. How could such a person have the heart to lay his hands on more than 100,000 innocent people?
What happened in Mojiang City in Songzhou Province? Zhang Tie was afraid that he could only seek for the answer by himself. If his identity as an alchemist demon's disciple was exposed to the public, Zhang Tie might be chased after by those super sects in Taixia Country. In the eyes of those super sects, even Li Butian and Yang Zhigang had not heard about Huaiyuan Palace.
'Forget it, stop thinking about these useless things. Let's go home first! '
When he thought about his parents whom he had not seen for many years and his three sons whom he had not seen before, Zhang Tie's heart turned hot.
With a wave, Zhang Tie had disappeared at the seaside …
…
In the ocean, only after a few seconds, Zhang Tie had accelerated to about 650 m per second, which was about 10% faster than that when Zhang Tie headed for Ice and Snow Wilderness by sea for the second time.
In each split second, numerous tiny bubbles that could not even be seen by naked eyes started to form in the water around Zhang Tie's protective battle qi. Closely after that, they were broken. At the same time, the powerful cavitation effect started to appear. Numerous tiny shock waves, jets, high heat and corrosion started to strike Zhang Tie's body and protective battle qi …
As Zhang Tie moved forward, he savored the formation and destruction of each tiny bubble in the water …
With Zhang Tie's powerful knight's consciousness, the tiny bubbles that were formed and destroyed on his body instantly brought Zhang Tie into a bizarre world. In this world, everything existed and perished in milliseconds …
…
7 hours later, Zhang Tie rushed into the sky from the bottom of the ocean and reached the sky in a split second …
"Ah, I just saw something flying up from the sea and into the sky …" In the afternoon, the sun had just begun to move to the west. On the shimmering sea, a young sailor who was arranging steel ropes on the deck of a huge ship suddenly raised his head and yelled, "Ah, I just saw something flying up from the sea and into the sky …"
"Gangzi, you've not slept with a woman for a few days. How could you be dazzled?" The other sailors on the deck looked up as they didn't see anything. Therefore, they started to tease him.
"No, I really saw something flying out of the sea in front of us just now. It even created a splash. That thing's speed was too fast. With a swoosh, it reached the sky and disappeared in an instant …"
"Like that Siberian chick in Fuzhou Harbor, you also saw it disappear in a split second!" The other sailors winked as they burst out into laughter …
The young sailor's face blushed at once.
"Well, stop joking around. We're about to arrive at Youzhou Province. Cheer up. After delivering this Fuxi Type-I difference engine, we could have a good rest for a few days. If we could do this business well, we would receive at least 1/3 more red packets than that of last year!" A bearded steward walked out of the cabin as he told the sailors. This huge ship and the sailors on board were all members of a clan business group. When they were about to complete the task, the steward revealed some information to them.
"Steward Liu, Youzhou Province is just a lower province. Which business group is so greedy to order a big guy Fuxi Type-I? This big guy has over 200,000 computing gears. It's even more powerful than Xuanyuan Type-7. Is there any business group in Youzhou Province that could make full use of this big guy?" A shrewd sailor asked.
"It's ordered by Jinwu Business Group!"
"Jinwu Business Group? I've not heard about it. It's not famous. I've only heard about Long Wind Business Group in Youzhou Province." That sailor replied with a dubious look.
"The two business groups are closely related to each other. They're both from the same clan!" The steward revealed a smile, "Do you know all-purpose medicament?"
"Yes, I do!"
"Let's deliver this big guy there and adjust it. When we come back, we will be able to deliver 100,000 vials of all-purpose medicament. As this business is done by the boss, we can't mess it up!"
All the sailors on the deck became spirited after hearing that …
…
Although Zhang Tie didn't release his battle qi luster in the sky, his speed was also very terrifying.
After a short while, Zhang Tie had seen a city and a prosperous harbor on the seaside. Being in the arms of two mountains, the harbor had a unique geographical advantage. Watching the mountain range which extended from the land to the sea like two sharp claws of a fierce tiger, Zhang Tie knew that he had finally arrived at his destination.
The big harbor that Huaiyuan Palace bought over 1 million square miles in the southeast of Youzhou Province was called Embracing Tiger Harbor. That mountain was also called Embracing Tiger Mountain. As a clan elder, Zhang Tie had seen the photo of this place when he was in Huaiyuan Prefecture.
The city behind Embracing Tiger Harbor was called Embracing Tiger City, which was the new foundation of Huaiyuan Palace in Youzhou Province.
At this moment, the eight branches of Huaiyuan Palace had built 8 cities on the land covering 1 million square miles in the southeast of Youzhou Province. The 8 cities were connected with each other and formed a prefecture called Yanghe Prefecture.
According to the tradition of Hua people, Yanghe Prefecture became the prefecture of Huaiyuan Palace and the foundation of Zhang Clan of Huaiyuan Palace. According to the strict standard of Taixia Country, the land that Huaiyuan Palace controlled in Waii Sub-continent could not be the prefecture of Huaiyuan Palace. The prefecture of Hua clans could only be in Taixia Country on the Eastern Continent; instead of those uncivilized places.
In Taixia Country, the so-called major clans and disciples of major clans would always call themselves prefecture and clan names, which indicated the foundation of a person and a clan.
From then on, all the Zhang clansmen of Huaiyuan Palace could call themselves Zhang clansmen of Yanghe Palace in Taixia Country.
As his family members didn't live in Embracing Tiger City, Zhang Tie didn't stay here for too long. After looking around for a short while, he continued to fly towards the northwest of Embracing Tiger City …
