Chapter 1356: Exiting the Tower of Time
53 days later, the runes on the crystal wall of the tower of time gradually slowed down and finally became frozen as if a river dried up. At the same time, an entrance appeared on that flaring film...
Zhang Tie and Yan Feiqing then walked out of there, hand in hand.
"Ahh, we've finally come out..." Zhang Tie let out a deep sigh.
After staying in the tower of time for 6 decades, when he suddenly left the lonely Milky Way, the familiar small courtyard and the peach wood which carried so many memories of Yan Feiqing and him, Zhang Tie was not even accustomed to it.
Although they had stayed in the tower of time for almost 6 decades, it had just been 59 days outside the tower of time.
"Ahh..." Yan Feiqing suddenly screamed as the beautiful golden wire longuette that Zhang Tie tailored for her turned into sparkling sands and flew into the light curtain of the tower of time. As a result, Yan Feiqing was naked at once as she only covered her vital positions using hands.
Zhang Tie burst out into laughter as he said, "I almost forgot to tell you that all the metal articles inside the rune instrument manufacturing skill promotion region couldn't be taken out of the tower of time..."
"Why not tell me about that in advance..." Yan Feiqing threw a glance at Zhang Tie. The former icy beauty turned especially fetching at this moment.
In the blink of an eye, Yan Feiqing had taken a wholly new suit of longuette from her portable space-teleportation equipment and put it on. To be honest, Yan Feiqing really didn't have the courage to wear those dresses which Zhang Tie made for her during the past 6 decades in the public.
The time and space twisting ability of the tower of time was weakening. The moment Zhang Tie exited that light curtain, he had felt that he had recovered his contact with Castle of Black Iron while his remote-sensing crystals also became responsive. It was utterly different than that when he entered this light curtain 2 months ago.
The two corpses were still lying outside the light curtain like that 2 months ago.
Watching that man who was hung on the giant monster's claw, Zhang Tie let out a sigh inside. During the past 6 decades, Zhang Tie had been clear about Yan Feiqing's bygones. It could be said that Yan Feiqing's merciless temperament was caused by this man. Otherwise, Zhang Tie would not have a chance to stay with her in the tower of time for almost 6 decades.
The process that Yan Feiqing got acquainted with this man was as same as the scene in romantic fictions. That year, Yan Feiqing had just promoted to a black iron knight when she met this man in the peach wood of Xuanyuan Hill.
This man was born in a major clan of Taixia Country. With a handsome look, this man had also just promoted to a black iron knight at his 20s. The two young people favored by the God met each other in the blooming peach wood of Xuanyuan Hill.
A handsome boy met a beautiful girl in their best age at the best place in the best season. Yan Feiqing was like a fairy in the eyes of that young man. Therefore, he started his eager pursuit after this girl.
Besides having a handsome look, that young man was also proficient in music, the game of go, calligraphy, painting and poem. Plus his status as a bachelor knight from a major clan and his eloquence, he soon won the favor of Yan Feiqing. The two people then traveled across the world together by visiting mountains, rivers, scenic spots and exploring the underground world. Yan Feiqing gradually fell deep in love with that young man...
If the story continued like this, it would be the most classic plots in knight novels and romantic fictions. Pitifully, everything had changed in an underground exploration.
The place, where Zhang Tie and Yan Feiqing were in, was discovered by her and that young man when they were young. That year, they discovered both the crystal cave outside and this hidden tower of time in the magma sea. However, at the same time, they were also discovered by an abyss dragon lizard.
Abyss dragon lizard was a pre-historical beast, whose battle strength was far greater than that of ordinary knights; especially in magma, which was absolutely predominated by abyss dragon lizard. After discovering the two trespassers, the abyss dragon lizard immediately chased after them. As Yan Feiqing and that young man couldn't defeat that abyss dragon lizard and they couldn't get rid of the estrangement of abyss dragon lizard, that man wounded Yan Feiqing at the critical moment and threw her towards the abyss dragon lizard. Closely after that, he opened the gate of the tower of time and rushed into it.
One end was death while the other was the tower of time; one end meant ending while the other meant to start. That man left death and ending to Yan Feiqing and the tower of time and a new start to himself.
At that moment, Yan Feiqing became hopeless as she felt gut-wrenching. As for Yan Feiqing, that man's betrayal was more painful than death.
When Yan Feiqing prepared to face her death, she saw a dramatic scene——the abyss dragon lizard suddenly dropped Yan Feiqing as it followed that man into the tower of time.
That man thought that this tower of time was only available for one person per time; however, he had not imagined that this tower of time could allow two people to enter or one person and one abyss dragon lizard at the same time...
When Yan Feiqing realized what happened, the gate of the tower of time had already closed automatically. Later on, when Yan Feiqing entered this tower of time, she saw the same scene that Zhang Tie had seen, namely the betrayer and that abyss dragon lizard died together in the periphery of the core region of the tower of time...
From then on, one more merciless woman who treated all men as betrayers appeared in the world.
...
A few years later, when the peach blossoms in Xuanyuan Hill were in full blossoms, Yan Feiqing traveled there once again. When she watched the peach blossoms and recalled the bygones, she gritted her teeth and wanted to send all the men into the hell. However, right then, an unfortunate playboy appeared.
At the sight of such a fairy, that unfortunate guy couldn't stand flirting with her. As a result, he was hung over a peach tree and was fiercely beaten, leaving a mental obstacle for the rest of his life...
Of course, that unfortunate guy was Immortal Being Deyang of Heavens Fortune Sect.
When Zhang Tie heard about her bygones, Zhang Tie could only pity Immortal Being Deyang for a couple of minutes inside...
