All the influential figures gathered in Youzhou Province. All the clans who wanted to compete for the position of provincial governor of Youzhou Province and those who just wanted to join in the fun or take a look at some benefits had gathered in Youzhou Province.
The birth of the first provincial governor of Youzhou Province was a major event for all the people in Youzhou Province. Additionally, Commander Cheng came here by airboat. It was said that he was assisted by the Heavens Treasure Ball of Heavens Fortune Sect. Due to these reasons, Youzhou Province was as boisterous as holding a grand lantern show. It was even more boisterous than the spring festival.
Actually, Zhang Tie was the last one who arrived at Youzhou Province among all the elders of Huaiyuan Palace.
Yesterday, Muyuan, Muan, Muray, Muyu and Muen had arrived at Youzhou Province by airship. On the same day, Zhang Taixuan the clan head of Huaiyuan Palace arrived here from the Earth-elements Realm too.
Actually, someone was more anxious than Zhang Tie about whether he would come here or not.
When Zhang Tie was still over 10 miles away from Youzhou City, he had already met some deacons and disciples of Huaiyuan Palace who were raising their heads and waiting for him.
At the sight of Zhang Tie's RV, those deacons and disciples almost burst out into tears.
'God, they arrived at Youzhou City earlier than Elder Zhang; especially these deacons and disciples who were going to receive Zhang Tie. They had been waiting outside Youzhou City for almost one week.
Nobody knew when Zhang Tie would arrive at Youzhou Province by RV. Therefore, these deacons and disciples could only wait here. Zhang Tie was very interested in traveling. They dared not urge Elder Mushen too far away. If they made Elder Mushen unhappy, they would be punished for sure. Additionally, their future in Huaiyuan Palace would be in vain. If Elder Mushen arrived late and delayed this competition for the position of provincial governor of Youzhou Province, although the other clan elders dared not do anything to Elder Mushen, these deacons and disciples who were responsible for receiving Elder Mushen would definitely become the typical incompetent ones. Otherwise, he would definitely become a typical incompetent person and his future in Huaiyuan Palace would also be in vain. They might even be punished with a felony.
Yesterday, when the clan head arrived, before Elder Mushen arrived, they had been roasted over the fire.
Then he saw the license plate of Golden Light City in Yanghe Prefecture and the serial number was 12345. When the "Traveler's Traveler" RV appeared on the highway, the few people's worried hearts finally returned to their stomachs.
They waved their hands to stop the RV. Zhang Tie then jumped out of the cockpit of the RV.
Zhang Tie seemed to have seen these people for a few times in Yiyang Mountain.
"You are …"
"Elder Mushen, I'm Zhang Desheng, a clan deacon assigned by Huaiyuan Palace to welcome you!" The deacon and the three disciples bowed towards Zhang Tie respectfully. At a time like this, only the deacon had the opportunity to speak. He didn't even have the chance to introduce himself to the clan elders.
"Don't be so polite. It's too late. I'm looking for a place to stay!" Zhang Tie let out a sigh. He said with a smile.
"Huaiyuan Palace has a mansion in Youzhou City. We will take Elder Mushen there right now!" Zhang Desheng said as he threw a glance at the limousine behind Zhang Tie. Closely after that, he pointed at the limousine which had long been waiting for Zhang Tie and his family members, saying, "Elder Mushen and your family members, do you want to take a rest in the limousine? I will have my disciples drive it to the headquarters!"
"No need. You just lead the way. I will follow you by the car! "Zhang Tie said. Zhang Tie said as he jumped into the cockpit of the RV.
The deacon and those disciples exchanged a glance with each other as they had not imagined that Zhang Tie could be so easy-going. Closely after that, they got on their own vehicles. The RV was driven towards Youzhou City by some luxury cars.
In the RV, a small window behind Zhang Tie's cockpit was opened, exposing Zhang Tie's dad's face.
"Zhang Tie, what's wrong?"
"It's fine, dad. Some deacons and disciples of Huaiyuan Palace are here to pick me up!"
"Ahh, that's great!" After hearing that Zhang Tie was fine, Zhang Tie's dad let out a sigh evidently, "Just now, your mom told me to ask you whether we will stay in the RV or in the hotel tonight?"
"Huaiyuan Palace has a mansion in Youzhou City. We will go to the mansion of Huaiyuan Palace!" Zhang Tie turned around and answered.
"There are too many people on the road. Watch out!"
"Don't worry, dad. With my driving skills, I can even drive with my eyes closed!" Zhang Tie bragged about something that was not really bragging.
"You brat!" Zhang Tie's dad scolded him with a smile. Closely after that, he closed the window.
Zhang Tie then followed those cars of Huaiyuan Palace into Youzhou City.
When he entered Youzhou City, Zhang Tie stretched out his head and looked up at the high city wall as he drew in a cold breath inside. The city wall was higher than 70 m. The tunnel under the city wall was at least 100 m in length like a tunnel.
It was higher than 70 m, wider than 100 m and longer than 40 km. Zhang Tie had not even heard about such a city wall before, not to mention seeing it. Zhang Tie could imagine how terrifying the defensive ability of such a city would be.
In Waii Subcontinent, almost all the city-defense armies in cities had encampments in cities; however, in Taixia Country, all the city-defense armies lived within the city walls. The city walls were not only the defensive facilities of cities, but also the encampments of soldiers in Taixia Country. Across Taixia Country, none of the troops built their encampments in cities. Besides the encampments of the city-defense armies which were inside the city walls, all the other troops who had encampments chose to build their encampments outside cities.
This was the "Military Law" in the "Laws of Taixia Country" — — The role of soldiers in Taixia Country was to protect the country and cities; instead of being protected by the country and cities. Therefore, no military camp would be built in cities across Taixia Country. In the eyes of soldiers of Taixia Country, it was a disgrace to build a military camp inside a city. Taixia soldiers were brave and powerful. They regarded it as a great honor and responsibility to build a military camp in a dangerous place. The more dangerous the military camp was, the higher the position of such a troop would be in Taixia Country. Among humans, only Taixia Country had established troops in the Earth-elements Realm.
The boisterousness and prosperity of Youzhou City were far beyond Zhang Tie's imagination. Especially in the evening, this huge Youzhou City was full of colorful lights. The streets were crowded with vehicles and boisterous nightclubs and taverns on the roadside were full of boisterous voices. Heroic men were drinking wine and beating drums on the street, singing passionately. Men of debauchery were inviting their friends in restaurants. Women in colorful dresses were in groups of three to five, competing with each other for beauty, attracting a group of debauchery to wander around them, trying to please them. There were also jugglers who were showing off all kinds of skills on the street, attracting a large number of onlookers to stop and watch.
What a beautiful scene! Like this city, Zhang Tie had not seen or sensed it before. However, this scene was the most vivid scene of Taixia Country.
Although it was the first time he had seen this. However, perhaps because of the Hua blood and genes in his body, Zhang Tie always felt everything here was very intimate.
…
The headquarters of Huaiyuan Palace was located near a street that Zhang Tie didn't know the name of in Youzhou City. Covering 600 square meters, it looked pretty magnificent.
Zhang Tie drove the limousine while the vehicles in front opened the way. It took them more than half an hour to get here.
There was a 5-6 m long horizontal board above the main gate of Huaiyuan Palace, on which were written four vigorous and powerful golden words "Huaiyuan Mansion".
He saw Huaiyuan Guild Hall. Zhang Tie recalled the scene when he raided Zhen's Mansion in Heavens Cold City. Comparing that scene with the current one, Zhang Tie felt the vicissitudes of time.
However, almost the moment Zhang Tie arrived at Huaiyuan Guild Hall, he had sensed the weird atmosphere around the main gate of Huaiyuan Guild Hall. At least 7-8 groups of people were gazing at those who were accessing to the main gate of Huaiyuan Guild Hall. Such a situation was out of Zhang Tie's imagination. Zhang Tie's heart slightly sank as he sensed a bit intense atmosphere caused by the competition for the position of provincial governor in Youzhou City. Needless to say, those people who were gazing at Huaiyuan Guild Hall at this moment must be dispatched by the opponents of Huaiyuan Palace. Those people gathered on the streets within 100 m of the main gate of Huaiyuan Guild Hall blatantly. Some were tasting tea in teahouses; some were pretending to open stalls on the streets; some were squatting on the opposite side of the main gate of Huaiyuan Guild Hall and gnawing fruits as they gazed at each other with gleaming eyes.
Not until Zhang Tie drove into the clubhouse did he feel a bit comfortable because of the courtyard walls and the shadows of the trees.
Zhang Tie parked the limousine in the parking lot. Zhang Tie's parents then got off the limousine as they looked around this place out of curiosity.
"Ahh, this Huaiyuan Guild Hall looks nice!" Zhang Tie's dad said pleasantly as he watched this Huaiyuan Guild Hall which was almost like a park.
"Have you prepared the room?" Zhang Tie asked Deacon Zhang.
"We've already prepared a courtyard for Elder Mushen's family members. All the maids and servants in the courtyard are from Huaiyuan Palace. Elder Mushen, feel free to order them!"
"Hmm, show us there!" Zhang Tie waved his hand. Deacon Zhang then led them to a courtyard on the lakeside of the Huaiyuan Guild Hall. The decoration of the courtyard was as delicate as that of Zhang Tie's home. Given that Zhang Tie had 3 kids, there was even a small children's playground on the lawn of the courtyard. Everything was considered very well. Zhang Tie's parents and wives were also very satisfied with it.
After his family members settled down, Zhang Tie left the courtyard and had that deacon take him to meet the elders and the clan head.
At this moment, the elders and the clan head of Huaiyuan Palace were negotiating something in a conference room of the Huaiyuan Guild Hall. Zhang Tie arrived at the right time.
When he realized that he was going to meet Lan Yunxi's dad for the first time, Zhang Tie became a bit intense.
...
"Clan head and elders, Elder Mushen has arrived!"
In a meeting room of the guild hall, the six people who were sitting inside stopped talking when they heard the report of a deacon.
"Let Elder Mushen in!" A man in the head of the conference room ordered the deacon calmly.
"Yes, sir!" The deacon left.
...
After more than 10 seconds, under the gaze of 6 pairs of eyes, Zhang Tie calmly entered the conference room and saw Zhang Taixuan the Count Long Wind, the head of Huaiyuan Palace for the first time...
