Translator: WQL Editor: Aleem
“As a Hua knight, it’s my commitment to serve humans in the holy war!” Zhang Tie didn’t lose his mind although he was moved by Zuoqiu Mingyue’s comment. He remained modest. In fact, Zhang Tie didn’t have a liking for fame, wealth or power. Therefore, he didn’t overreact to other’s overpraise, “Actually, besides me, numerous knights, officers and people from all walks of life are still working for Taixia Country in the frontline of Weishui River and the rear end. Commander-in-chief Zuoqiu and those heavenly knights were especially the pillars of Taixia Country in the western theater of operations. I’m just a bit lucky to do that…”
“Nobody could promote to a knight by luck, not to mention the knight of knights!” Crown prince Changying replied as he gazed at Zhang Tie seriously. Based on the crown prince’s experience in judging people, of course, he knew that Zhang Tie’s calm look was not fake. One of his most important purposes here today was to check Zhang Tie’s disposition. Only after having a short chat with Zhang Tie and observing the latter’s speech and conduct for a short while, the crown prince had already known Zhang Tie’s temperament. With a forthright laugh, Xuanyuan Changying pointed at two chairs in the parlor as he said tenderly, “As you’ve just recovered your wounds, let’s take a seat!”
“Please, His Majesty!”
The two people then sat on two ends of a bench in the parlor. The moment they sat down, a maid in Purple Manor had served tea and pastries for them.
Previously, Zhang Tie would feel intense even when he sat together with the elders of Huaiyuan Palace. However, now, even though he was sitting together with the crown prince of Taixia Country, he still behaved very calmly. Zhang Tie had seen through many things after experiencing “death”. The so-called social status was useless when one was about to die.
“General Mushen, how do you feel now? Doctor Fei told me yesterday that as long as the general could wake up, you would rehabilitate rapidly. However, as the strength of thunder of nirvana still exists in your body, your mind sea and qi sea are both devoured by that strength, and you could barely use your battle strength for the time being.” Crown prince Changying showed concern the moment he sat down.
“As was told by Doctor Fei, I indeed have survived myself; however, I’ve not completely eliminated the strength of thunder of nirvana. It might still take a few days to completely recover my battle strength!” Zhang Tie said as he rubbed his face by fingers, “His Majesty, you can call me Zhang Tie. I feel uneasy when His Majesty calls me general!”
“Hahaha, I will call you Zhang Tie, but may you call me elder brother Changying as I’m only a few years elder than you?” Crown prince Changying immediately drew the relationship closer between them.
Watching the crown prince’s easygoing smile, Zhang Tie hurriedly shook his head as he said, “How come I will be His Majesty’s brother?”
The crown prince let out a sigh in a disappointed way as he replied, “It seems that General Mushen doesn’t feel that I’m qualified to be on intimate terms with you. I understand it. General could kill demons like slaughtering dogs on the battlefield; however, I have really humble military exploits on the battlefield, although I also have some experience in Earth-elements Realm…”
After hearing the crown prince’s words, Zhang Tie hurriedly forced a bitter smile as he waved his hand, “Please forgive me, His Majesty. As long as His Majesty could prevent those chattering daws in imperial censorate from finding faults with me, I will call His Majesty Elder brother Changying from then onwards…”
Crown prince Changying burst out into his laughter as he said, “I promise, if anyone in the imperial censorate dares to find faults with you, I will slash him!”
“The king’s words are to be taken seriously. With Elder brother Changying’s promise, I will not be afraid of calling you Elder brother Changying from now on!” Zhang Tie burst out into laughter too.
After hearing the sentence “The king’s words are to be taken seriously”, the crown prince felt more genial as he felt that it was much more interesting to talk with Zhang Tie than that he could imagine. Although the crown prince had not seen Fairy Sea King and was not sure whether Fairy Sea King was more powerful than Zhang Tie, he asserted that Zhang Tie was much more interesting than Fairy Sea King. The crown prince sighed with emotions inside, ‘No wonder he conquered Yan Feiqing. Nobody else could make Yan Feiqing docile except for Zhang Tie, even sage-level knights could do nothing to Yan Feiqing but to be beaten…’
When the crown prince thought about it, he waved his hand over the table, revealing a pile of jade cases and vials in various patterns that gave out colorful light at once. No sooner did these items appear than the entire parlor was suffused with looming, bizarre herbal fragrance. The moment Zhang Tie sniffed it, he had felt spirited as if he was bathing in a warm spring. Not only that, Zhang Tie found that each jade vial and case contained a looming, vivid image of an animal.
It indicated that these were top-notch medicinal pills. Even Zhang Tie had only heard about that. However, the crown prince brought him 6 such pills.
“These medicinal pills are articles of tribute that the top 5 sects of Taixia Country provided to the imperial households and the secret recipes of imperial financial and living affairs ministry collected in the imperial household!” The crown prince picked one jade vial as he said, “It contains Taiyi Golden Pills of Taiyi Fantasy Sect. It’s said that it could bring the dead back to life and enable flesh to grow over bones. This is Heavens Fortune Dew of Heavens Fortune Sect. A drop of it is more effective than that of a vial of super recovery medicament. This is the pulp of Qionglou Sect. It could cure 36,000 diseases in the world. This is Heavens Holding Powder of Heavens Holding Pavilion. A spoon of Heavens Holding Powder could detoxify various poisons. This is Demons killing Life-saving Pill of Demons killing Valley. With one Demons killing Life-saving Pill, you could save one life at the critical moment. This is the Xuanyuan Dragon Marrow Incense, a recipe of the imperial household of Taixia Country. When you cultivate or sleep, you only need to light it to make your meridians relaxed, purify your marrow, nourish your battle qi and increase your spiritual energy…” After introducing the usage of all these items, the crown prince pushed all of them in front of Zhang Tie as he said, “I’ve already sent an order to the imperial hospital and told them to work out the solution against the thunder of nirvana. Before they work it out, these items should be useful to your wounds…”
After looking at those priceless pills and powders on the table, Zhang Tie moved his eyes on the crown prince and replied with a smile calmly, “Thanks, Elder brother Changying”. Closely after that, he waved his arm and teleported all of them into his portable space-teleportation equipment as if he had taken some kilograms of fruits.
Watching Zhang Tie’s deed, the crown prince burst out into laughter once again…
