Chapter 1820: A Weirdo

Zhang Tie had not imagined that Bian Heng could find out so many of his secrets only after touching his pulse.
‘This Bian Heng the Yama is really something.’
As Bian Heng could see through the seriousness of his injury, Zhang Tie was thrilled at once.
On this occasion, Zhang Tie was not afraid that Bian Heng knew his background. If Bian Heng didn’t know that, it would take him some time to explain it to him; additionally, he might have made a futile trip.
As for some secrets, even Versatile Demon Emperor who was the most dangerous to Zhang Tie had known them, Zhang Tie didn’t feel unacceptable that more people knew them.
“Now that you’ve known that I was injured by Versatile Demon Emperor, you should know that Versatile Demon Emperor and I are not on the same boat. I would not do any harm to humans; nor would I make troubles in Tigerback Mountain…” Zhang Tie said as he watched Bian Heng calmly, “As for my true name, due to some reason, in case of bringing trouble to you, I don’t want to reveal it. You can call me Jin Wu!”
Now that Zhang Tie wanted Bian Heng to help him recover his qi sea, he should establish the basic trust with Bian Heng. Therefore, Zhang Tie tried his best to not cheat Bian Heng. As for those secrets that he couldn’t expose, he didn’t say them. Zhang Tie didn’t believe that Bian Heng knew that he was the incumbent Dragon Emperor Zhang Tie.
“Jin Wu?” Pondering his name, Bian Heng couldn’t help standing up from his chair, circling Zhang Tie for a short while and glancing over him from head to toe with shiny eyes as if he was watching a rare animal, asking, “Do you really come from another world?”
Zhang Tie almost showed the white of his eyes as he replied, “Didn’t you know that after touching my pulse?”
“Unbelievable, unbelievable, unbelievable…” Bian Heng muttered out of excitement. Then, he gradually recovered his composure, saying, “Previously, I’ve only heard that someone could enter Motian Realm from another world. Unexpectedly, I am seeing a living man from another world who had even survived the fatal strike of Versatile Demon Emperor!”
“What? Someone had entered Motian Realm from another world before?” Zhang Tie asked out of curiosity.
“Yea, of course. But it’s rare. There’re many legends about such kind of people in the history of Motian Realm. One or two people would enter Motian Realm out of some reason in each thousand of years or tens of thousands of years. However, all the people who entered Motian Realm from another world were emaciated and couldn’t live long. None of them had ever cultivated. Even though they entered Motian Realm, they would die soon. The latest alien came to Motian Realm, according to my knowledge, over 1,000 years ago. He died only after living in Motian Realm for a few years…”
“Oh, I see!”
‘Previously, I wondered why Versatile Demon Emperor soon accepted the fact that I came from another world. It turns out that I’m not the first one who has come to Motian Realm from another world. It’s comprehensible. Perhaps there are many space cracks like that above Yinhai Desert in the world where I came from.’
‘In the long course of history, some people might be sucked into the space crack and come to Motian Realm coincidentally. It’s also recorded in the books before the catastrophe that I’ve read. As humans’ ability to explore space and nature increases, some planes and ferries would always disappear in some bizarre places or coincidentally enter open space cracks. Then, one or two of them would come to Motian Realm. It’s nothing strange at all. However, those lucky dogs didn’t have my ability; nor were they cultivators; therefore, they might not be able to adapt to the environment here.’
“For how long have you been here?” Bian Heng asked Zhang Tie with strong interest.
“A few years!”
“Are there many people in your world?”
“Many, many people. Our population is dozens of times greater than that in Moitan Realm…”
“Is it large?”
“Large, very large. It’s endless and contains numerous planets and galaxies. Nobody knows how large it is precisely.”
Bian Heng asked Zhang Tie about his world like a journalist out of great curiosity. Zhang Tie could understand Bian Heng’s feeling. Therefore, he just answered him patiently. If it were him who encountered an “alien”, Zhang Tie might also ask him various questions out of curiosity.
“None of those people who came to Motian Realm had any cultivation at all. Why are you different than them? Do you come from the same place?”
“I’ve not seen those people whom you’ve mentioned. Therefore, I don’t know whether we’re from the same world or not. Did the one you mentioned come to Motian Realm over 1,000 years ago?”
Bian Heng tilted his head and thought for a short while before answering, “I’ve read some information about him. I remember that guy said that people in the world where he came from could produce various strange machines. Some machines could fly in the air; some could swim in the water; some could run on the ground. They were pretty emaciated and didn’t know cultivation at all. However, he said that their most powerful weapon could easily destroy 100 cities. I feel it’s exaggerated. Even though immortal battle formation-breaking thunder is not that destructive. How could those emaciated people control such a powerful weapon?”
Zhang Tie didn’t explain the concept of civilization development to Bian Heng at all; nor did he feel like comparing the differences between the two worlds; because he couldn’t figure out these things at all. Additionally, it happened thousands of years ago and could absolutely be taken as a story or myth. ‘I’m not an old scholar. It’s useless for me to study them. I only need to live well now.’
“You mean, that man who came to Motian Realm over 1,000 years ago was from the same world as me. The weapons that he mentioned indeed have existed. However, later on, due to a sharp change in that world, those weapons became useless. Therefore, everyone is thinking about being stronger and paying more attention to cultivation so as to survive themselves!”
“Oh, I see!”
“Are there demons in your world?”
“Yes, many. When I came to Motian Realm, humans and demons are fighting in my world!”
“Can… you come back?”
“Even immortal-emperor level powers couldn’t do it, not to mention me!” Zhang Tie refuted.
“It seems that the legend is true!” Bian Heng sighed all of a sudden.
“What legend?”
“This legend has been spread in Motian Realm for tens of thousands of years. It’s said that Motian Realm was connected to another world. Due to the wars between deities, the two worlds were separated!” Bian Heng suddenly gazed at Zhang Tie as he asked, “Why does Versatile Demon Emperor want to kill you?”
With a smile, Zhang Tie replied briefly, “Because I want to kill him. He felt my threat and wanted to kill me. Previously I should have been dead; unexpectedly the God didn’t want me to die so fast. Therefore, due to an accident, I survived the fatal strike of Versatile Demon Emperor fortunately.”
“You really have guts!” Bain Heng instantly thumbed up as he spoke highly of Zhang Tie, “It’s the first time to hear someone wants to kill Versatile Demon Emperor!”
“Pitifully, I cannot do it anymore. According to you, I was struck by Versatile Demon Emperor’s Heavens-breaking fatal skill. I’m almost like a crippled person. That’s why I came here for you!”
“Who said you couldn’t. Hehheh, if you’re dead, I indeed couldn’t cure you; as long as you’re alive, I promise I could help you recover your qi sea.” Bian Heng said pleasantly as he patted his chest.
“Senior, you could help me recover my qi sea?” Zhang Tie became spirited as he realized that his honest communication with Bian Heng had worked.
“Of course, Versatile Demon Emperor’s means were unusual; of course, ordinary means couldn’t work; however, as long as you could bear hardships, I will be able to cure your disease!”
“Thank you so much, senior!” Zhang Tie appreciated Bian Heng as he felt relieving a deep burden.
“But…” Bian Heng started to glance over Zhang Tie again as he reiterated his classic words, “You know my rule. I never help people without benefit!”
“Senior, what do you want?” Zhang Tie asked Bian Heng calmly.
“My request is simple…” Bian Heng smirked as he added, “As long as you agree to be my disciple, of course, I will not ignore your disease as your master!”
Zhang Tie became shortly stunned. After recovering his composure, he said, “Thanks for your favor, senior; but I don’t know nothing about medical science; nor do I have any talent…”
Bian Heng waved his hand generously as he said, “It doesn’t matter. I don’t care whether my disciples know medical science or not; no matter what, they don’t know it better than me. Someone would be arrogant after knowing a bit; as a result, they won’t learn from me seriously!”
When Zhang Tie recalled Zhao Yuan’s face, Zhang Tie shook his head again. “I’ve already got a master. If I admit you as my master, it would be a great mistake.”
“You’ve already got a master?” Bian Heng asked Zhang Tie as he blinked his little eyes.
“Right!”
“That would be tricky. If you deceive your master, even heavens and earth couldn’t tolerate that!” Bian Heng muttered as he paced to and fro in the room, scratching his messy hair with a pretty fretful look.
“Senior, why do you favor me?” Zhang Tie shrugged as he asked Bian Heng.
Blowing his beard, Bian Heng stared at Zhang Tie, saying, “If you become my disciple, I would be the first one in Motian Realm who could accept an alien as my disciple. Even Force Emperor, Star Emperor, Rune Emperor, Emperor NvWa and Dragon Emperor couldn’t match me. I think you’re fortunate. When you become famous in this world, I would become famous too. I would win greater reputation than Force Emperor, Star Emperor, Rune Emperor, Emperor NvWa and Dragon Emperor. If so, they would never be that arrogant in front of me anymore…”
Zhang Tie goggled out his eyes. However, after thinking about it carefully, Zhang Tie felt it was a bit reasonable. Perhaps a person like Bian Heng was pursuing a different realm than that of ordinary people.
“Haha, it’s easy. Now that I cannot become your disciple, I could become your sworn brother. By then, you will be my elder brother. If I become well-known in the future, you would be the first one who had admitted an alien as your sworn younger brother in Motian Realm; you could also become famous forever. By then, your reputation could also be greater than that of Force Emperor, Star Emperor, Rune Emperor, Emperor NvWa and Dragon Emperor…”
Zhang Tie was joking as he wanted to see whether Bian Heng was lying or not. Unexpectedly, after hearing Zhang Tie’s suggestion, Bian Heng became still at a stroke. Closely after that, he knocked his forehead forcefully with a thrilled look, saying, “That’s a good idea. Why didn’t I think about it…” However, in the blink of an eye, Bian Heng had changed his face as he hurriedly shook his head, adding, “No, no, it’s not proper. In that way, your dad would become my dad; your mom would become my mom. When I touched your pulse, I found your bone age is not long, your parents’ age must not be old. How could I admit two younger aliens as my parents? That would be a great shame! No, we can never do that…”
