Castle of Black Iron

The woman’s battle qi in her qi sea was normal; however, the Golden-Soul Rune Virus in her mind sea had already developed into the form of a puppet worm completely which was giving out golden light. Those bizarre tadpole-shaped runes had got many rune tentacles which covered the swirl of the spiritual energy in the mind sea of the woman. Some rune tentacles even deepened into her brain…

The Golden-Soul Rune Virus didn’t make any response to Zhang Tie’s spiritual inspection. However, it had completely integrated with the woman’s mind sea and brain. As a result, it was more difficult for Zhang Tie to remove it.

After withdrawing his hand, Zhang Tie opened his eyes as he found the woman was looking at him with rosy cheeks. After seeing that Zhang Tie had opened his eyes, she felt bashful.

At the sight of her expression, Zhang Tie immediately felt her subtle mental condition. He then took a serious look at her as he found this beauty in purple was mature with plump breasts, almond-shaped eyes, rosy cheeks and elegant, enchanting frame. She was indeed a rare beauty. If Zhang Tie was favored by such a beauty in Blackhot City, he might have laughed out even in dreams. No, he wouldn’t even fall asleep in the evening. However, at this critical moment, Zhang Tie didn’t feel like flirting with her at all.

To tell the truth, Zhang Tie was a bit regretful at this moment. ‘Why did I become so handsome? It seems that I’ve underestimated the attraction of this look to women. I should become a bit average.’

“There’s no problem with the battle qi in the void above your qi sea, try to run it…” Zhang Tie said calmly.

Zhang Tie’s good look took effect at once. The moment the woman heard his suggestion, she inhaled and closed her eyes. In a split second, she had frowned as her face turned pale, oozing fine sweat all over her forehead. She then opened her eyes as she shook her head, saying, “I cannot do it. As long as I want to run my battle qi, I will feel a red-hot needle piercing into my brain through the central forehead. As a result, I have to stop it…I feel…feel that something might be in my mind sea. But I don’t know what it is…”

Zhang Tie could feel the Golden-Soul Rune Virus because of his super great spiritual energy and the secret skill of Bloody Soul Sutra. As for these immortal generals who had been affected by Golden-Soul Runed Virus, even if Golden-Soul Runed Virus were in their bodies, they still didn’t know anything. It was like how commoners felt after being poisoned on many occasions. Despite feeling uncomfortable, they didn’t know where was the problem.

It was another terrifying feature of Golden-Soul Runed Virus——being invisible. People could barely check out where it was even if it was in their body.

“Can you run your spiritual energy now?”

After hearing Zhang Tie’s hint, Su Haimei tried it as she shook her head again, answering, “No, like how I ran my battle qi, the moment I run my spiritual energy, the part in the central forehead will ache sharply…”

‘That got to be the effect of Golden-Soul Rune Virus. After these people wake up, they could maintain their consciousness; however, their abilities are restricted. They might have no ability to resist before the so-called “Sacred Sacrifice”.’

Zhang Tie remained silent as he was thinking about two questions rapidly.

‘If so, even if all the immortal generals of Yin-Yang Sect wakes up, as they have lost their abilities, it would be difficult for me to take them away from here. What’s more, before “Sacred Sacrifice”, the Golden-Soul Rune Virus might become more dangerous or experience other unexpected changes after I take them away from here. What if it directly kills these people?’

‘The ideal condition was that I could postpone the date of “Sacred Sacrifice” endlessly after these people wake up, in which situation, I will have no worries even if they have lost their battle strength. They only need to stay alive. In this way, I could spare more time to work out a solution to relieve Golden-Soul Rune Virus.’

However, Zhang Tie knew that the possibility for him to reach this real condition was pretty low. Given the ability and intelligence of the creator of Golden-Soul Rune Virus, he would never allow the batch of virus that he had spent great efforts to create to be ineffective.

‘How could I help them out?’

As Zhang Tie thought about the above two questions, he found that it became increasingly trickier.

“Mr…Mr…hero, may I know your name? Why are you here?” watching Zhang Tie thinking about it with a frown, Su Haimei asked him.

“Just call me Donder!” Zhang Tie instantly borrowed Donder’s name. No matter what, Donder was lecherous and shameless. He would definitely have drooled in front of such a rare beauty. As Zhang Tie recalled Donder’s look, he continued with a solemn look, “Last night, when I passed by Redmountain City accidentally, I saw some guys catch some people in the castle and fly out of it. Therefore, I stealthily followed them. Oh, I found they didn’t outnumber you. As you’re all immortal generals, why didn’t you fight them? Additionally, you have no external wounds, how did they catch you? It seems that you’ve been poisoned…”

“I don’t know about it either. Last night, when we saw those people break in Ying Clan’s castle, one of the opponents in black robe took out a weird gourd. The moment the gourd’s lid was opened, some golden sparkles had flown out of it towards us. When a golden sparkle flew towards me, I slashed towards it. Unexpectedly, the golden sparkle thoroughly ignored my saber. Closely after that, my central forehead ached. Then, I felt dizzy and lost my consciousness!”

After hearing Su Haimei’s description, Zhang Tie finally knew the situation where Ji Yuelan sent the half message to him. True love could be checked in crises. When Zhang Tie realized that Ji Yuelan was still worrying about him in such a critical situation, he felt complex at a stroke.

‘No matter what, I have to save all the immortal generals of Yin-Yang Sect this time.’ Zhang Tie made a decision.

Golden-Soul Rune Virus could be barely defended. It could almost ignore any defense and strike of immortal generals, which was similar to that of thunder of nirvana. No wonder the entire Ying Clan’s castle had completely collapsed in only a few minutes.

“Oh, how are the common servants and guardians of Ying Clan’s castle?” Su Haimei hurriedly asked Zhang Tie.

“Besides the 27 immortal generals which were caught on this airboat, all the other living beings in the castle had been killed, even chicken and dogs…” Zhang Tie replied lightly. After hearing Zhang Tie’s words, Su Haimei’s face turned completely pale as she burst into tears at once…
