In the evening, Zhang Tie left Fuhai City by airship.
This city was not worth staying here anymore. As he had said what he should say and done what he should do, it was meaningless for him to stay here anymore. Therefore, Zhang Tie left straight away.
The fury-level airship carried Zhang Tie towards Huaiyuan City.
Huaiyuan City was over 3,000 miles away from Fuhai City in the northwest of Fuhai City. Although it was a bit deviated from Zhang Tie's route back to Youzhou Province, 3,000 miles was not too far. It would only take him a couple of days by airship. As Zhang Tie had been away for a few months, such a short period of time was nothing for him.
To be honest, Zhang Tie let out a sigh of relief after Fan family broke off the engagement. When he was young and frivolous, he could fool around with the girls of Rose Association in Blackhot City; however, when he was asked to live with a woman whom he had not seen before, get married and have kids, his heart still pounded slightly. Although affection could be cultivated gradually, Zhang Tie always felt a bit awkward to buy a ticket after getting on the train.
Of course, Zhang Tie couldn't disobey his parents; however, it would be better if Fan family broke off the engagement themselves.
It was too normal for a small black iron knight to lose a bit face in a foreign land when fighting with such a huge monster like the Gobbling Party. Zhang Tie didn't care about it at all; not to mention that he had slapped the face of the Gobbling Party when he left Fuhai City.
Zhang Tie was very open-minded. When he left Fuhai City, he even felt pretty relaxed.
After handing those medicaments to the branch of Jinwu Business Group in Fuhai City, Zhang Tie left here leisurely.
After boarding the airship, Zhang Tie contacted his elder brother by remote-sensing crystal and told him that Fan family broke off the engagement. He told his elder brother to tell his mom and dad that he would come back soon. After that, Zhang Tie returned to his room and started to absorb earth-elements crystals.
After a few days, he would have 14 scales...
Knights were indeed one step at a time on their way to a higher level. There was no shortcut at all.
The night gradually deepened...
After absorbing the 3rd earth-element crystal and the 4th one, Zhang Tie, who was sitting in his room with crossed legs, suddenly opened his eyes as he ran his spiritual energy.
When he absorbed earth-elements crystals, although most of his spiritual energy was in the elements realm, he still maintained the basic perception of the outside world with his powerful knight's consciousness. This was also a knight's basic skill. As a knight, he should have a sharp insight into the surrounding environment at any time.
A porthole of Zhang Tie's room slid open silently. Closely after that, Zhang Tie moved like a snake and came to the outside of the airship. Under the control of Zhang Tie's battle qi, the porthole closed silently.
…
At this moment, the fury-level airship was flying steadily at over 2,000 m high. In the darkness, red fluorite lights were flickering on the front, back, left, right and bottom of the air sac at the top of the airship. The red lights were reminding other aircrafts that there was a large airship here.
In a blind angle where the hard airbag on the top of the airship was flashing a red light, a figure in black clothes from head to toe silently stuck there like a gecko.
"It's windy here. If you want to hitch a ride, just tell me. Why do you hide here?" Zhang Tie appeared on that guy's side silently.
That guy was startled as he turned around at once.
Under the black mask, Zhang Tie could only see a pair of eyes which were shining with weird brilliance.
Zhang Tie stretched his hand and directly grasped that guy's neck. However, that guy slid down over 10 m along the air sac like mercury and dodged Zhang Tie's first strike at once.
Zhang Tie exclaimed inside, 'This guy's movement skill is rare even among black iron knights. It's too weird and flexible.'
After dodging Zhang Tie's first strike, that guy raised his hand and shot three meteors towards Zhang Tie as fast as lightning bolts. Zhang Tie barely dodged them. At the same time, that guy bounced up and appeared over 100 m away in a split second. Closely after that, he flew towards the south as fast as a lightning bolt.
Just now, Zhang Tie just wanted him to leave the airship; otherwise, if this guy started to destroy the airship, this airship would be destroyed. As for a knight, it was as easy as a kid trying to prick a balloon with a needle. At this height, if the airship suddenly fell off, at least half of the crew would be killed or injured.
Realizing that this sneaky guy was going to escape, Zhang Tie would never let him escape so easily. Therefore, he instantly chased after him.
Zhang Tie was startled — — since he promoted to a black iron knight, he had not met a powerhouse who could match him in speed in the sky. He had not imagined that the sneaky guy could even match him in speed. Additionally, that guy's movement skill was weird and unpredictable. After exchanging blows with him twice in the sky, Zhang Tie found that the power and skill of that guy's hidden weapons were also far greater than that of common black iron knights...
However, that guy's battle qi strike seemed to be a bit weaker; otherwise, Zhang Tie almost thought that he was facing a demon general.
'Who's this guy? Heavens Reaching Church or the Gobbling Party... '
A question occurred to Zhang Tie's mind. Zhang Tie would not let this guy go easily...
...
At this moment, Fan Clan in Fuhai City...
The previously silent Fan Clan had been brightly lit at this moment. Numerous torches were flickering in the dark. A lot of criminal hunters, officials and powerhouses of the Supreme Court of Fuhai City had converged here. Even the streets outside the Fan Clan had been blocked.
It was a guard of a nearby Fan Clan who found the abnormal situation of Fan Clan.
That family and the Fan family were neighbors, and the two families often interacted with each other. They were only separated by a wall, and the guards of the two manors were familiar with each other. Tonight, the guard of the mansion was patrolling his mansion as usual, but he found that the Fan family was silent. Even the guards who usually patrolled the night were gone. Feeling that something was wrong with the Fan family, the guard called out a few times, but no one from the Fan family responded, so he boldly climbed over the wall to take a look. When he saw that there was no one alive in the Fan family, he was so frightened that he hurriedly reported it to the authorities …
Fan Clan was an official of Fuhai City. What happened to an official's mansion in Fuhai City shocked the entire Fuhai City.
After receiving the news, the castellan of Fuhai City hurriedly came to Fan Clan. Seeing the miserable situation of Fan Clan, the castellan's face turned gloomy as his beard started to quiver out of fury.
'Killing the entire clan of an official of Taixia Country in such a cruel way. The daughter of Fan Clan was even raped and killed. Such a vicious case is extremely rare across Taixia Country, not to mention Yingzhou Province. It's absolutely making an enemy out of all the officials of Taixia Country. '
The castellan of Fuhai City was standing in the parlor of Fan Clan with a gloomy look. Watching the picture of green pines and red sun and that pair of couplets in the parlor, he was waiting for his subordinate's report.
A person in the uniform of the Supreme Court hurriedly entered the parlor, "Lord, through medical treatment, Director Fan has woken up..."
"Director Fan is still alive?" The castellan's eyes flickered as a shrewd light flashed across his eyes.
"Director Fan's heart is on his right chest. He's lucky..."
"Hurry, take me there!"
...
At the sight of the castellan of Fuhai City, Director Fan who was lying on the bed dropped off bloody tears as he tightly caught the castellan's hand while quivering all over, "I saw it with my own eyes... it's... it's Zhang Tie... Zhang Mushen... that b * stard... killed me in my daughter's room... that b * stard has been possessed by the devil... please give me justice, castellan..."
In the legend of the Western Continent, angels would fall; however, in the reality of Taixia Country on the Eastern Continent — — a gentleman could be possessed by the devil!
After hearing that it was done by Zhang Tie, the castellan of Fuhai City became shocked. Right then, another person hurriedly ran into the room and whispered to the castellan.
The castellan of Fuhai City changed his face once again. Closely after that, he gritted his teeth and issued an order decisively, "Report to the Provincial Court of Yingzhou Province and Cheji General's Mansion, Zhang Tie has committed a shocking crime in Fuhai City. He first slaughtered the entire clan of Director Fan of Fuhai City; then, he killed the head of Morality Association and all the members of Fuhai City. He has a bloody debt. Please arrest Zhang Tie, Zhang Mushen. Don't let him leave Yingzhou Province, dead or alive!"
...
After more than one hour, Zhang Tie had already deepened into the wilderness.
In the process, they had fought each other twice. That guy had been injured by Zhang Tie; additionally, he had been attached with a tracing feather. Zhang Tie wanted to see where could this guy escape to.
As Zhang Tie chased after him, that man had already fallen into a wood in the valley. Zhang Tie then chased after him without any fear.
A few minutes later, the man in black who had been running for more than an hour suddenly stopped at a place and stopped running.
Zhang Tie stood still 20 m away from him as he watched him, "Who the hell are you?"
"You don't need to know who I am. You only need to know that I'm going to kill you. Brat, you could die contentedly after being dealt with by me!" That guy opened his mouth for the first time in a very weird voice.
'F * ck, you should die contentedly. 'Zhang Tie frowned as he revealed a smile, "I'm afraid that it's not that easy for you to kill me!"
"If I wanted to kill you, it would be as easy as flipping my palm. However, that wouldn't be fun, and it would be somewhat troublesome. This is for the best …" That person laughed strangely. Amidst the laughter, a figure also scuttled over from afar.
At the sight of that person darting towards here as fast as a lightning bolt, Zhang Tie almost thought that he was hallucinating. Because that person was exactly the same as him in height, figure, look, even clothes.
Right in front of Zhang Tie's eyes, the two people collided with each other. Closely after that, a weird black flame rose from their bodies at the same time.
The flame was very strange. Even though it was far away, Zhang Tie could still sense the terrifying temperature and energy of the black flame with his knight's consciousness. What was strange was that the black flame didn't burn anything on their side even though it was burning on their bodies.
In only a few seconds, the two people had turned into ashes in front of Zhang Tie, leaving nothing behind when the night wind blew over.
All of this was too strange. It was like a dream.
Zhang Tie didn't know what happened. However, he felt something was wrong out of instinct as he sensed a great warning...
Zhang Tie wanted to leave here; however, before he left, three meteors had already descended from the sky and launched powerful knight strikes towards Zhang Tie at the same time …
