When Yue Peng punched towards Zhang Tie’s back, Fang Xinyi and all the others on his side felt it was improper. However, it was too late for them to stop him.
With Bai Suxian’s exclamation,
watch out
, Yue Peng punched towards Zhang Tie’s back, breaking Zhang Tie’s clothes into pieces. However, Zhang Tie remained unchanged. Closely after that, Zhang Tie turned around with a faint shrill sneer…
In the next second, Zhang Tie abruptly disappeared. Before Yue Peng responded to it, Zhang Tie had forcefully slapped Yue Peng’s face, causing the latter to spurt out a mouthful of blood and broken teeth.
Zhang Tie’s hand was very powerful; additionally, he stroked back too fast. Even Yue Peng’s partners had not seen how Zhang Tie suddenly appeared on Yue Peng’s side from dozens of meters away. They were all stunned. Additionally, Yue Peng had not thought about the outcome of his punch out of fury. When Zhang Tie appeared on his side, he had not even released his protective battle qi yet.
Zhang Tie directly made this knight of Heavens Holding Pavilion confused. Zhang Tie directly sent Yue Peng to fly off.
However, before he flew off, Zhang Tie grabbed his ankle. Closely after that, Zhang Tie forcefully lifted him up and was going to crash him onto the ground as if he was a hammer.
At this moment, those knights on Yue Peng’s side finally realized what happened. They changed their faces at once. Given the strength of Zhang Tie’s slap, Yue Peng would definitely be severely wounded if he were crashed onto the ground.
Stop!
The youth who mocked Bai Suxian at the beginning punched towards Zhang Tie, followed by all the other 4 knights.
In a split second, Zhang Tie waved his punch to block all the 5 knights’ strike at the same time.
The moment the 5 knights touched Zhang Tie’s punch, they immediately felt that they were covered by the strict and mighty punch intention of a domineering iron punch.
Previously, the 5 young knights just used 40% of their strength in case of Zhang Tie’s safety; however, Zhang Tie’s counterattack reversed the initiative. As a result, the 5 young knights changed their faces once again as they had to exert 80% of their efforts to respond to Zhang Tie’s counterattack.
The 5 black iron knights’ strike was defused by Zhang Tie easily. At the same time, he caught Yue Peng’s hand and directly smashed him onto the ground ferociously.
With a
bang
, the cyan-stone road outside the gate tower of Horse Bridge was shattered in a split second, causing a huge pit while broken stones flew in all directions. The 5 black iron knights were sent flying 20 m away so as to offset Zhang Tie’s powerful punch.
As they were launching a close combat, they didn’t mean to hurt the surrounding people. Only the huge pit left by Zhang Tie was a bit fearsome.
Yue Peng, who had been confused by Zhang Tie’s slap uttered a miserable shriek due to extreme pain as he spurted out a mouthful of blood once again.
Even though Zhang Tie didn’t exert his full strength, he still broke Yue Peng’s arms and shins into 70-80 pieces; additionally, Yue Peng’s guts were wounded; half of his ribs were broken. This strike could even match that of a cruel torture. Few people could bear it. He would not recover in 1 month if he did not take senior recovery medicament. It would take Yue Peng longer time to grow out his teeth once again even with the help of recovery medicament.
Tsuang…
The 5 knights couldn’t stand to pull out their weapons at the same time.
Watching them pulling out of their weapons, Zhang Tie sneered with an invisible berserk battle qi,
Dare you to fight me in Xuanyuan Hill? Aren’t you afraid of being killed by me?
Zhang Tie’s smile made those knights’ hearts froze immediately.
It happened so fast that everything had come to an end before Bai Suxian responded.
At this moment, Bai Suxian had jumped onto Zhang Tie’s side with the brilliant longsword, the very silver secret item that Zhang Tie gifted her, in hand. Meanwhile, her beautiful eyes turned furious.
The moment the longsword appeared in Bai Suxian’s hand, it had turned misty like trickles. The others immediately knew that it was an immortal item and must be very powerful. Given Bai Suxian’s look, if she joined the battle, she would definitely exert her full strength.
Wait…I will never let you go…my master will never let you go…
Yue Peng, who was severely wounded, shouted towards Zhang Tie with bloody eyes while lying on the ground as if he wanted to eat Zhang Tie alive.
Don’t talk about that until you could introduce yourself without mentioning Heavens Holding Pavilion!
Zhang Tie watched Yue Peng with a sneer as he lowered his head,
I will give you a small warning today. Bai Suxian is my woman. If I hear you talk about something that makes me unhappy, I promise you that you will definitely regret coming to this world. Remember, in this world, I’m the very one whom you could not offend for the rest of your life…
You…
Before Yue Peng talked about something, Zhang Tie had already raised his huge foot and stomped onto Yue Peng’s face in an overwhelming way, causing Yue Peng’s nose to collapse at once. His blood spurted out of Zhang Tie’s foot.
Yue Peng passed out at once.
After grinding his face with his foot twice, Zhang Tie raised his foot.
This time, Yue Peng’s whole face looked as colorful as a fried eggplant with soy sauce. Watching his poor look, the other knights felt their spines numb.
Why are you so vicious?
Fang Xinyi watched Zhang Tie with an icy look.
After being forced to move back by Zhang Tie’s punch, Fang Xinyi didn’t pull out her weapon. She just watched Zhang Tie with an extremely calm look.
Am I vicious?
Zhang Tie replied with a faint smile,
Don’t forget that he provoked me and started the strike first. I was just defending myself. If he was a commoner, he would have long been killed by that punch. I’ve already shown my mercy to him given that we’re all Hua knights and the holy war is coming!
After saying that, Zhang Tie directly looked at the gate tower of the Horse Bridge as he revealed a smile,
General, you must have seen what happened here. According to the law of Taixia Country, I’m legit, right?
Since they were set free, Zhang Tie had noticed that the earth knight who had investigated them was watching them quietly on the gate tower. Not until Zhang Tie uttered did Fang Xinyi and the other guys find that one person was watching them on the gate tower being not far away from them.
I’ve indeed seen what happened just now. This man attacked you first. It’s legit for you to launch a counterattack!
The earth knight considered it twice before replying to Zhang Tie calmly.
Put away your sword, let’s go!
Zhang Tie patted Bai Suxian’s back as he directly left with Bai Suxian.
After Zhang Tie left, that earth knight on the gate tower of Horse Bridge told Fang Xinyi and the other guys,
This guy has to stay here. As he attacked others on his own initiative in Xuanyuan Hill, he had violated the law of Xuanyuan Hill. If you don’t want this guy to die here due to severe wounds. You’d better notice his master and elder to take him away!
After saying that, some soldiers carried Yue Peng who was in a deep coma into the gate tower at the bridgehead of Horse Bridge.
Those knights, especially those male knights exchanged a glance with each other as they all looked frustrated. What happened today let all of them understand a truthCommon knights had better not show off their battle strength in Xuanyuan Hill.
Especially when they fought Zhang Tie at the same time just now. Zhang Tie gave them an overwhelming feeling and easily sent them flying away only with one punch. Such a great battle strength shocked those young knights too much.
After looking around the others’ poor look, a young knight forced a bitter smile as he let out a sigh,
Alas, the master is right. Xuanyuan Hill indeed has a lot of powerhouses. I’ve not imagined that I could encounter such a terrifying earth knight here. He just used one hand to defuse the strikes of our 5 people at the same time. No wonder senior fellow apprentice Yue Peng couldn’t resist that man’s counterattack and got it all to come! What an earth knight! I’m afraid that we could not defeat him even if we form two 3-in-1 battle formations…
Don’t get discouraged. Given that guy’s battle strength, he’s at least above 7-change realm!
The knight who mocked Zhang Tie at the beginning became slightly spirited,
I really don’t know such a powerhouse among earth knights in Taixia Country!
What should we do now?
As we’re Yue Peng’s friends, we’d better tell Yue Peng’s master about this event in the courtyard of Heavens Holding Pavilion!
Junior fellow apprentice Yue Peng was always stable and wise instead of being that impatient. How could he make such a mistake today?
Maybe junior fellow apprentice Yue Peng was a bit intense. After all, he was facing an earth knight. Therefore, he made an error in speaking. He told that man about his sect so as to warn him…
After what happened today, everybody at present including Fang Xinyi had lost their interest in this place. They then left. So did those onlookers who came here to join the fun from afar after hearing the noise.
Nobody noticed that the earth knight just kept his eyes on Zhang Tie’s back with a solemn look.
This earth knight touched a piece of senior alchemist’s amulet on his chest inside his armor. He inherited it from his ancestor. Its function was to prevent the wearer from being influenced by most of the spiritual and soul secret methods and help him keep alert.
That amulet could protect its wearer; meanwhile, it could respond to the surrounding spiritual secret methods sharply. When Zhang Tie asked Yue Peng his name, this earth knight could evidently feel that his amulet slightly moved.
Closely after that, that knight from Heavens Holding Pavilion called Yue Peng directly told that earth knight about his sect. Then, Yue Peng was teased sharply.
After being stimulated too much, the knight of Heavens Holding Pavilion was finally instigated. He launched a punch towards that earth knight’s back. However, with this opportunity, that earth knight directly crippled this knight of Heavens Holding Pavilion in a few seconds in front of everybody else, including the earth knight on the gate tower, leaving no loophole at all.
If that earth knight had already thought how to deal with the knight of Heavens Holding Pavilion in words since he turned around and used the secret spiritual method to have the knight of Heavens Holding Pavilion show his slip unconsciously, this guy must be very terrifying. He must have amazing scheming, battle strength and secret methods.
The earth knight on the gate tower reflected, ‘If not this top-quality ancestral alchemist’s amulet which warned me about that, I might not know what really happened until now.’
The knights of Recreational Affairs Ministry who guarded the emperor’s imperial city of Xuanyuan Hill were not on the same channel with the knights of the top 7 sects of Taixia Country. To put it straight, among humans, besides the knights of the top 7 sects of Taixia Country who could be able to threaten the security and safety of the emperor’s imperial city, all the other knights were dwarfed in front of powerhouses of the Recreational Affairs Ministry. Actually, the Recreational Affairs Ministry was founded to resist the powerhouses of the top 7 sects of Taixia Country. Out of this purpose, this earth knight of Horse Guard under the affiliation of the Recreational Affairs Ministry just enjoyed the show between Zhang Tie and the knight of Heavens Holding Pavilion silently just now.
After considering it for a short while, this earth knight waved his hand and fetched a subordinate knight. He whispered something to that knight, who nodded before leaving the gate tower…
In less than 2 hours, before Zhang Tie and Bai Suxian returned to the manor of Lord Guangnan’s Mansion in Xuanyuan Hill, cracking sounds had drifted out of the courtyard of Heavens Holding Pavilion in Xuanyuan Hill…
At the same time, a file about Fire Dragon Hermit appeared on the table of the Recreational Affairs Ministry, one of the 9 ministries in Taixia Country silently.
When the file was hurriedly brought here by a knight of the Recreational Affairs Ministry in a sealed silver lot pot, the minister of Recreational Affairs Ministry, one of the 9 ministries of Taixia Country was drinking tea and chatting with a man in the Class I official uniform of Taixia Country who looked yellowish and dignified in a room while enjoying the moonlight.
The Class I official uniform was embroidered with a Pixiu, a mythical wild animal which was also called gold-eater. The animal was surrounded by propitious clouds, snow, rice, maize, wheat, millet and beans. Those who were familiar with the bureaucratical establishment of Taixia Country would know that he was the finance minister, one of the 9 ministers of Taixia Country.
Only after throwing a glance at that sealed secret lot pot sent by a trusted subordinate of the minister of the Recreational Affairs Ministry, the finance minister had stood up with a smile,
Brother Hanyuan. I will not bother you today. Many forces are converging in Xuanyuan Hill, the Recreational Affairs Ministry have great responsibilities. As Brother Hanyuan has public affairs to deal with, I will not waste your time. I have to go back to my mansion now!
Right, Brother Zhengfang, I hope you could pay special attention to that thing. As the overall situation is urgent, the knights under the affiliation of the Recreational Affairs Ministry have to shoulder heavy responsibilities. Additionally, we have to pay special attention to the safety of the emperor’s imperial city. Therefore, silver secret items are in urgent demand. As the silver secret items in the imperial warehouses could not even be moved by the crown prince, we could have a chance to solve this problem in the Treasures Meeting of the Gold and Power Market!
After hearing that, the finance minister replied with a solemn look,
Don’t worry, Brother Hanyuan. As you and I are chancellors in the same imperial court, it’s our responsibility to share the concerns of the country. I will definitely try must best to do that!
After hearing your promise, I feel more reassured! The more silver secret items we have, the better it would be.
Finally, the two Class I officials of Taixia Country bade a farewell to each other. After seeing off Hang Zhengfang out of this courtyard, the minister of the Recreational Affairs Ministry returned to his room.
The minister of the Recreational Affairs Ministry had a beautiful beard, slim and long eyebrows and two pupils in each eye, which looked pretty dignified.
After returning to his room, the minister of the Recreational Affairs Ministry sat on his chair with eyes closed for 2 minutes. After that, the minister threw a glance at a trusted subordinate who was standing in the room quietly before asking him calmly,
What’s the matter?
The Horse Guard general sent here a secret file!
Ah, the case about Li Xiongtao?
The minister of the Recreational Affairs Ministry instantly became interested in it,
Give it to me!
After taking that lot pot, the minister tore off the special seal and saw a small piece of the crystal inside it. After holding it and watching it for a few seconds, the minister’s eyes gleamed. After a short while, he revealed a weird smile,
Ha, I’ve not imagined that there’s such a figure! Interesting!
