Castle of Black Iron

Except for the lonely man who was meditating, eyes closed, all the others at present were shocked by Zhang Tie’s young look with a myriad of facial expressions.

The two fierce immortal generals whom Zhang Tie had met outside just now exchanged a glance with each other. One of them then smacked silently. The arrogant earth immortal general squinted his eyes towards Zhang Tie. The two brothers just stared at Zhang Tie for a short while out of shock. The two women’s responses were a bit funny: the female earth immortal general just threw a glance at Zhang Tie calmly before neglecting him; the other revealed a big smile and ogled at Zhang Tie; besides, she waved her hand towards Zhang Tie, saying, “Little young brother, come here and sit beside your sister!”

The female who greeted Zhang Tie was in soft blue outfit. She was hot especially featured by her straight nose, big and watery eyes. The woman beside her was an earth immortal general in green longuette. With an oval face, slim eyebrows, she looked pretty beautiful despite being much more distant than the first one.

After the female in blue soft outfit finished her words, the female earth immortal general beside her had glared at her in a helpless way.

Zhang Tie wondered whether females on the way here were all decent and beautiful due to the plentiful aura in this space.

Despite having such a good opportunity to get along with such beauty, Zhang Tie was neither shocked nor surprised; instead, he just revealed a frank smile, replying, “Ha, thank you, sister!” After saying that, Zhang Tie came over there and sat down closely beside that female in blue soft outfit decently.

The two females were sitting in the middle of the same soft bench, which was not broad enough. After sitting down, Zhang Tie’s thigh almost touched that female’s thigh with less than one punch’s distance in between.

The others didn’t make any response to that, except the two brothers who forcefully swallowed their saliva as they couldn’t hide their admiration for Zhang Tie.

At this moment, Zhang Tie smelt the fragrance of orchid from the female earth immortal general and the strong fragrance of rose blossom from the female in soft blue outfit. Sitting next to such beauties, Zhang Tie really felt much better than smelling the stinky sweat of those men in the airboat.

“Young brother, you’ve already been an immortal general at such a young age, you must come from a big clan…”

The moment Zhang Tie sat down, the female beside him had started the talk passionately.

Just now, this female called Zhang Tie little young brother. The moment Zhang Tie sat down, she had changed the appellation by removing the word little, which sounded a bit more intimate. Hearing that, the female beside her slightly frowned as she directly turned around as if she didn’t care about their talk at all.

“I cannot remember where do I come from…”

“Aah? But why…” the younger female exclaimed with an exaggerated look.

“I’ve been injured. After waking up, I’ve forgotten many things!”

Now that Zhang Tie could fabricate a lie in the airboat, he didn’t mind continuing the lie. No matter what, he felt this reason worked. He didn’t want to explain too much about that in case of trouble. Due to the plentiful aura in Motian Realm, despite being much less than that in Taixia Country in total population, the number of immortal generals here might not be less than knights in Taixia Country. So many immortal generals here were traveling around and looking for opportunities. Therefore, it was not a big deal for a fresh immortal general who had forgotten about his bygones to appear in a place. After all, it was much better than being caught and made into experimental slices after revealing his real identity as an alien.

“Young brother, how did you come to Heavenly Square City then?”

“I was saved by the crew of an airboat passing by when I passed out a few days ago. Therefore, I picked up their vehicle and came here!”

“That’s good. That’s good!” the female said as she patted her plump breast as if she was afraid that Zhang Tie could not see that, asking, “Young brother, what’s your name?”

“I’m Zhang Tie. Sister, may I know your fragrant name…”

“Fragrant name…” the female in blue repeated the term as she tasted it for a while with a serious look.

Watching her expression, Zhang Tie realized that nobody else in this world might have asked a female’s name in such an elegant way. Despite being succinct, this phrase contained a Hua culture which had been lasting for thousands of years in another world. Many ancient men of letters might have racked their mind to work out such a great phrase. When asking a female’s name, they realized their compliment, making the listener happy instead of feeling disgusting. Only Hua people’s words could be so charming and fantastic.

According to the custom of Hebrew language, it would be——sister, may I know your name which is as fragrant as flowers…if so, it would sound a bit vulgar and evident. In Motian Realm, where humans and demons had fought tens of thousands of years, a man of letters might be like rarities. At least in the airboat, when Zhang Tie talked about poets with Captain Shi, the entire crew had responded with confused looks as if they didn’t know the profession of the poet at all.

“Is poem a kind of sharp immortal general?” A’Long asked Zhang Tie seriously. Zhang Tie thought A’Long was kidding. Later on, he realized that there was no such a profession of the poet in this world at all. Perhaps nobody in this world had once written a poem. People in this world might have not imagined that it could become a lofty profession or popular for a period of time by writing poems. In this world dominated by battle force, Everything’s value was related to strength.

After hearing the phrase fragrant name, even the female earth immortal general who had looked aside couldn’t stand looking back at Zhang Tie again as if she was shocked by Zhang Tie’s eloquence too. The two words really sounded warm-hearted.

It might be the first time for the female beside Zhang Tie to hear this phrase. After tasting it for half a minute, she suddenly revealed a brilliant smile, praising, “Young brother, you’re really talkative. Your words sound really comfortable. Bear it in mind, this sister’s name is Ji Yuelan. I would not always tell my name to a man easily.”

“Oh, I couldn’t bear such high praise!” Zhang Tie sighed as he looked up.

“Why?”

“Because the last girl who said it to me always urged to marry me!”

“Really?” Ji Yuelan patted Zhang Tie’s shoulder as her face flushed. Closely after that, the punch’s distance between them disappeared.

The two brothers just gazed at Zhang Tie like watching a deity.

All the others in the room became silent as Zhang Tie and Ji Yuelan were talking freely. Ji Yuelan even burst into laughter every once a while…

…

In another room of the immortal palace, an old man with some deep frowns on his forehead in black long robe which was embroidered with dragon patterns and a female immortal general in the fiery outfit and short hair were standing in front of a water basin where bizarre runes were flowing in water.

Light flashed across the water basins as everything in the room where the eight candidates were in appeared in the water basin clearly like images in a mirror. The water slightly rocked as sounds in the room could be clearly heard too.

Zhang Tie’s image appeared in the water basin. The old man and the female immortal general were gazing at Zhang Tie at the same time with different looks. The old man grew more and more serious while the female immortal general abhorred Zhang Tie evidently.

“Go check which airboat he had come from and whether he was saved by the crew or not…”

The female immortal general then watched the old man, saying, “Head, this man…”

“Go check, I could handle with it…”

“Yes, sir…”

The female immortal general threw a deep glance at Zhang Tie before disappearing in a split second…
