After hearing Zhang Tie's question, Bai Suxian widely opened her eyes out of amazement as she asked in a secret way, "Ahh, how do you know that?"

"Hmm, someone told me!" Zhang Tie winked at her.

The 5 people of Black Tiger Palace could not imagine that the contents of their talks had been clearly drifted into Zhang Tie's ears. After promoting to an earth knight, Zhang Tie's perceptions had entered a terrifying level.

"Hmm, the entire Lord Guangnan's Mansion could only get a very small amount of Dew of Moonlight from the imperial financial and living affairs department per year. The Dew of Moonlight is very precious. Besides being fragrant, it also has a lot of marvelous effects. I've brought all the Dew of Moonlight here. I would never leave even a bit to Fang Xinyi, the foxtrel. When I treated her as my bosom friend, I even shared some Dew of Moonlight with her!" Bai Suxian said with a furious look.

Zhang Tie smiled as he felt that a woman was pretty cute when she hated another one.

"The all-purpose medicament is also not bad. You can have a try when you're free. Jinwu Business Group has already developed a suite of all-purpose medicament, especially for women. When I come back to Fire Dragon Bounty Territory, I will have my elder brother send some to you!"

"Ahh, I know that. Rose Beauty Series is very good. When I came back home, I was told that the imperial financial and living affairs department of Xuanyuan Hill were customizing some top all-purpose medicaments from Jinwu Business Group for Xuanyuan Hill. Those top all-purpose medicaments have been shared within Xuanyuan Hill. Very few of them could enter lords' mansions." Bai Suxian said with sparkling eyes.

Zhang Tie knew it too. Over these years, his elder brother had been establishing a relationship with the imperial financial and living affairs department of Xuanyuan Hill.

It was weird. The culprit who set me up in Fuhai City was one of the top 9 chancellors in Taixia Country. The imperial financial and living affairs department was also one of the top 9 chancellors' agencies. As a private department of Emperor Xuanyuan and the imperial households of Taixia Country, it was equal to the super private steward of the imperial households of Taixia Country, which was responsible for managing the finance, taxation, land, water irrigation, imperial clothes, jewelries, food, medicines, antiques, tools, vehicles, craftsmen, construction, colorful paintings and lights in Xuanyuan Hill.

Honestly, everything that was produced in the imperial financial and living affairs department was the best among humans. Because of the specialty of the all-purpose medicament, even Xuanyuan Hill demanded it. Therefore, Zhang Yang could establish a commercial tie with a Class 3 supervisor in the department. The raw materials of the top all-purpose medicament produced in Jinwu City were all provided by the imperial financial and living affairs department of Xuanyuan Hill. Jinwu Business Group was responsible for fermentation and cold extraction. After the top all-purpose medicament was produced in Jinwu City, they would be specially provided for the imperial financial and living affairs department of Xuanyuan Hill instead of entering the markets with the symbol of manjusaka as the sacrifice for imperials households.

The Class 3 supervisor in the imperial financial and living affairs department served as a Class 4 officer previously and was only responsible for the food, drinks and fruits in the harem of Xuanyuan Hill. Because of the relationship between the officer and the supplier of the top all-purpose medicament, this officer won the praise of those concubines and noble women in the harem of Xuanyuan Hill. In the past 4 years, he promoted from Class 4 to Class 3. With a rapidly growing power, he also enjoyed a greater influence in the imperial financial and living affairs department and could always communicate with the noble people in the harem of Xuanyuan Hill.

'My elder brother wants to slowly increase the influence of Huaiyuan Palace through this relationship and help me reverse my case in Xuanyuan Hill. Unexpectedly, after the event of Zhongzhou Province, being commonly affected by the series of events, the Supreme Court had already revoked the arrest order on its own initiative before this relationship took effect.'

"From then on, you can enjoy those top all-purpose medicament as much as you want!"

"That's great!" Bai Suxian became thrilled at once. She directly kissed Zhang Tie's cheek without caring about the looks of Zhang Tie's disciples.

His disciples didn't even know why their master's wife was so happy. They just pretended to have not seen that as they exchanged glances with each other in a curious and ambiguous way. After that, they continued to walk downstairs after Zhang Tie and Bai Suxian.

The underground tunnel had been cleaned. At least there was no gravel in the tunnel. However, they could see evident traces, the gravels on both sides of the tunnel and some broken steel bars near the passes left by knight-level powerhouses by force 1 month ago,

Zhang Tie's disciples couldn't gain any information from the ruins; however, Zhang Tie could identify the battle strength of those people who rushed downstairs 1 month ago given the traces. Meng Haishan the chief justice of Zhongzhou Provincial Court might have joined the battle himself.

As they walked downstairs, the bloody and stinky smell in the air became stronger. It smelt as disgusting as a slaughterhouse which had been sealed for dozens of years.

Zhang Tie and Bai Suxian could hold breath for a few hours in this environment. Even if they breathed, their bearing capabilities were several times stronger than that of commoners. By contrast, many disciples of Zhang Tie felt dizzy and breathless as their faces turned pale the moment they smelt the strong bloody smell.

At this moment, Liu Xing who had rich experience in dealing with this situation took out a vial of exotic ointment and daubed a bit of it onto the part below his nose. Closely after that, he passed it to the others, "This is taste-erasing refreshing ointment. You can daub a bit onto the philtrum!"

"Ahh, the first senior fellow apprentice is really considerate!"

"According to master, the bloody sea was located here; additionally, the knight-level powerhouses of the Supreme Court have killed over 10,000 bloody figures here. Even though they have moved away from the corpses, they could still not clean up the bloody smell. It might even arouse a special bloody plague in the worst scenario, under that circumstances, people might be poisoned after breathing a few times. In the Earth-elements Realm, a lot of caves and regions are affected by the bloody plague; therefore, I prepared for some ointment in advance!"

After hearing Liu Xing's explanation, Zhang Tie nodded inside. Bai Suxian also threw a smile at Zhang Tie. The other disciples of Zhang Tie approved the position of their first senior fellow apprentice too.

Soon after other disciples daubed the ointment on their philtrum, they had felt a bit cold on their philtrum. Closely after that, an exotic fragrance of herbal medicine stimulated their noses. After sneezing, they all felt clear-minded at once. The bloody smell also became less disgusting.

After a short while, they had come to the bottom of the hole and noticed the entire underground space.

The bloody sea had disappeared. Besides a huge, round pit and those gravels on the ground, they saw nothing else. Even the bloody water in the huge pit had been taken away by space-teleportation items. Otherwise, someone with evil intents might cause troubles with the bloody water.

Besides that the bloody sea was demolished and taken away completely, this underground space should have been searched over carefully by the powerhouses from the Supreme Court. Because the small karst caves on the ground and the surrounding walls of this underground space had been completely excavated. Even the traces were fresh.

Besides the stinky smell in the underground space, nothing else was left inside. This might explain why the Supreme court opened it to the public.

The ground and those stones in the entire underground space were covered with deep, brown blood stains which were left by those bloody figures who were slain here. The bloodstains reminded them of the terrifying scene of mountains of corpses with incomplete broken limbs.

Many disciples of Zhang Tie observed this underground space very seriously in case their family members asked them about what they saw here through letters when they came back to Fire Dragon Bounty Territory.

Zhang Tie and Bai Suxian directly took a round in the huge pit with their disciples.

The images that Zhang Tie gained from the memories of those live bloody figures corresponded to the scene here while those blurry parts in their memories immediately became clear. Zhang Tie had the directest impression and feeling about more details.

Through the confirmation of this observation, the image of a 9-floor crystal tower being covered with many bizarre runes gradually became clear in Zhang Tie's mind. Zhang Tie then realized that the crystal tower should be the core of the bloody sea.

Nobody could smile anymore. They all became silent. Even Bai Suxian's face turned solemn as she started to observe the source of this event which had aroused the great chaos in Taixia Country. As a result, only their footsteps and breath sounds were reverberating in this gloomy underground space.

When Zhang Tie looked around, he suddenly thought up something. Closely after that, he faintly narrowed his eyes while a golden lotus-flower shaped brilliance was silently in full bloom in his eyes.

'Although the elite forces of Supreme Court have searched over this place carefully, what if they missed something? After all, they didn't have the ability of lotus-flower eyes. They might miss something.' A whim occurred to Zhang Tie's mind as he activated his lotus-flower eyes.

After activating his lotus-flower eyes, everything in this underground space gradually turned different in Zhang Tie's eyes as they all turned transparent including the stones and the cliffs.

In less than half a minute, Zhang Tie had slightly opened his mouth as he was shocked. Because he really found something amazing...
