Chapter 1283: Going on an Expedition

Translator: WQL Editor: Aleem
Half an hour later, Zhang Tie set off from the advanced base in Huanhou Province——Blackwter Base.
Zhang Tie had only stayed in Blackwater Base for less than 2 hours.
When Zhang Tie left from there, the sun had just set off.
Zhang Tie waved his hands towards the back as he threw a glance at his partners. After that, he left Blackwater Base and flew towards that red sun which was setting off.
At that time, Guo Hongyi was also at the exit of the base; however, she didn’t stand together with Bai Suxian, Mountain Lifting Hermit, Elder Muray and Elder Muyu; instead, she just stood far away and saw Zhang Tie off silently with a complexed expression as if she was bidding a farewell to Zhang Tie. However, she didn’t say anything to Zhang Tie. As a result, Zhang Tie didn’t know what to say even though he wanted to say something to her. Therefore, Zhang Tie could only wave his hands to them.
Although Zhang Tie didn’t move fast, under the red glow and warm sunlight, Zhang Tie soon disappeared in the halos as if a hero who was going on an expedition alone in a decisive and brave manner.
After Zhang Tie disappeared, Bai Suxian and the other 3 knights turned around and saw Guo Hongyi turning around and leaving there too…
“Elder Mushen and the clan head of Guo Clan…” Elder Muyu also noticed Guo Hongyi who came here to bid a farewell to Zhang Tie. Only Zhang Tie left the base from this exit at this moment. Therefore, it was impossible for Guo Hongyi to come here to bid a farewell to others. Elder Muyu also noticed something special from the eyes of Guo Hongyi. He just didn’t believe in that as he was shocked inside. Elder Muyu had not heard any gossips between Zhang Tie and Guo Hongyi, ‘But why do I feel that this rouge tiger who’s well-known across Youzhou Province is in love with Zhang Tie? That’s too unbelievable!’
Bai Suxian threw a glance at Guo Hongyi’s back. As Bai Suxian was still immersed in the depression caused by Zhang Tie’s departure, she didn’t feel like being at odds with Guo Hongyi. After hearing Elder Muyu’s secret question, she just shook her head as she answered secretly, “Don’t ask me about that, I have no idea…”
Mountain Lifting Hermit shrugged as he suggested, “Let’s go back for cultivation. I’m afraid that we will take tasks in a few days!”
The 4 people then separated.
On the way towards their cabins, Elder Muyu asked Elder Muray, “What do you think?”
Elder Muray revealed a bitter smile as he stroked his beard and replied, “Whenever I stayed with Elder Mushen, I would feel that I was growing old rapidly. I have not had such a feeling previously; but now, I have to admit that I’m already old. Such a young earth knight! I admit that I couldn’t match Elder Mushen on cultivation. But now, I am also lagged far behind by him on love. I was also personable when I was young; I’m also strong even now; but why am I not favored by any female knight? Does Qianji Hermit even have mysterious means to pick up girls?”
Elder Muyu became dumbfounded as he had not imagined that Elder Muray who used to be solemn could speak such sort of words. After thinking about it carefully, Elder Muyu could only shake his head as he revealed a bitter smile, “But the love affairs between Elder Mushen and Yunxi…”
Elder Muray threw a glance at Elder Muyu. There were some gossips about the love affairs between Zhang Tie and Lan Yunxi. As the elders of Huaiyuan Palace, of course, they knew the gossips. However, due to certain reasons, those elders prevented the disciples of Huaiyuan Palace from spreading over the gossips…
“We don’t need to worry about that. Yunxi’s surname is Lan; instead of Zhang. Even if Yunxi’s surname was Zhang, after so many generations, it would absolutely be easy for them to get married. It’s better. They would be more intimate as they were relatives. At least nobody would compete for the position of the clan head of Huaiyuan Palace in the future. As a result, Huaiyuan Palace would grow stronger. Although Elder Mushen would not compete for the position of the clan head of Huaiyuan Palace, it doesn’t mean that the descendants of Elder Mushen would not compete for this position with the descendants of the branch in Yiyang City either. You must have heard about the three sons of Elder Mushen in Taiyi Fantasy Sect. Based on their talents, they are destined to be knights one day. Who else among the descendants in the branch of Yiyang City could match them in the future? If not, do we expect that Elder Mushen’s sons could be as modest as Elder Mushen? Even if they could be as modest as Elder Mushen, what about the dignity of the clan head in the future? Don’t forget that Elder Mushen belongs to the branch of Goldensea City…” Elder Muray didn’t seem to be joking when he mentioned about the future of the clan.
Elder Muyu nodded before shaking his head and replying, “But Yunxi is going to be the goddess of Taiyi Fantasy Sect!”
“If we had long known that Elder Mushen could make such a great achievement, I would definitely have prevented Yunxi from joining Taiyi Fantasy Sect…”
“We’re humans, not deities. Nobody could predict the future…” Elder Muyu let out a sigh too.
“Yes, we’re humans, not deities…”
Speaking of this, the two elders of Huaiyuan Palace threw a glance at each other as they recalled the word “God” that Zhang Tie selected by rotating the chakra. From then on, everything that happened to Zhang Tie seemingly proved that Zhang Tie was destined to select this word because Elder Mushen seemingly was always favored by God…
“We’re far-stretched…let’s talk about it after this holy war!” Elder Muyu revealed a bitter smile.
Elder Muray nodded…
The words “holy war” were enough to make the two elders of Huaiyuan Palace forget about everything else which was not related to “holy war”…
…
Under the Blackwater Base, so many airships were coming and going around the clock. The location of the Blackwater Base was regarded as the safest place in Peacewest Military Region. All the human airships would choose the airline which was close to the base for the sake of safety; therefore, people could see the grand scenery in the air.
What Zhang Tie saw looked like a shaol of fish crossing the river.
Under the sunset, at over 10,000 m in height, Zhang Tie watched numerous airships bathing the afterglow, the clouds and the vast land below. If there was no demon or the holy war, such a scene would be pretty spectacular; even a bit poetic. However, because of demons and war, what he saw would have utterly different meanings.
“No. 136 has already left Blackwater Base for Helan Mountain Range…”
After flying off the Blackwater Base for 10 minutes, Zhang Tie injected his spiritual energy into that Xuanyuan remote-sensing crystal as he sent a message to Blackwater Base in the communications code which was commonly adopted by him and Blackwater Base.
“Blackwater received; wish you come back safely!”
Blackwater Base gave him a feedback almost the moment Zhang Tie sent out the message, which indicated a smooth communications channel.
After using the remote-sensing communications device, Zhang Tie nodded inside as he felt pretty pleasant. Although Zhang Tie was not clear about the situation facing the command post of Blackwater Base, given the great feedback speed of the remote-sensing device, Zhang Tie knew that at least 2 fighters above LV 9 were responsible for contacting him around the clock.
After receiving the reply, Zhang Tie sped up abruptly as he constantly ascended…
When Zhang Tie left Blackwater Base, he looked handsome and calm; however, Zhang Tie had been long berserk inside and longing to use his Purgatory Samsara Method…
Those demon knights might be threatening to others; however, in Zhang Tie’s eyes, they were just gifts for his chakra. When Zhang Tie was worried about not having sufficient raw materials for the Bloody Sacrifice Furnace, so many demon knights had presented themselves to him.
With black iron knights, Ockham whose water chakra had been absorbed by Zhang Tie would recover his water chakra once again. Additionally, earth demon knights were the best raw material for Zhang Tie by Purgatory Samsara Method. In Zhang Tie’s eyes, as long as there were not too many demon knights to be digested for one time, demon knights were definitely mobile treasures.
As for shadow demon knights and heavenly demon knights, Zhang Tie didn’t care. If he could defeat them, he would do that; if not, he would escape. With the great flight ability as a divine dominator and Castle of Black Iron on his back, he was not afraid of anything.
The catastrophe that demon corps brought to Taixia Country made Zhang Tie hard to be happy. At the same time, Zhang Tie became excited inside as he found a way to rapidly improve his battle strength. Therefore, Zhang Tie left Blackwater Base with a complexed feeling.
After flying for a short while, as the sun gradually went down, due to his optimistic temperament as a small figure essentially, Zhang Tie thought it through at once.
‘Damn it, whatever, I will kill as many demons as possible and save as many people as possible. As long as I live up to myself, I don’t need to think too much. No matter what I think, will I do any harm to the demons? Will one fewer commoner die?’
‘Yes, f*ck them!’
When Zhang Tie thought it through, he felt pretty relaxed immediately.
At this moment, Zhang Tie suddenly felt that a person was gazing at him from the direction of Blackwater Base…
Zhang Tie’s heart pounded as he estimated that only one person in Blackwater Base could do it——Year Qingcheng.
If not Zhang Tie’s spiritual energy had been extremely high and he had a similar experience, Zhang Tie would never sense the faint gaze from a heavenly knight.
After thinking about it for a few seconds, Zhang Tie didn’t look back; instead, he roared towards the sky with a bizarre smile.
After hearing Zhang Tie’s roar, the thunder hawk dove downwards at the speed which was 2 times the speed of sound and came to Zhang Tie’s side. After Zhang Tie rode on its back, the thunder hawk flew towards Helan Mountain Range at the same speed…
…
‘No wonder…’
Ye Qingcheng moved his eye light away from the west near a window at the highest place of Blackwater Battlefortress; however, he was still a bit shocked inside…
