Chapter 1432: In Gradual Recovery

Zhang Tie recovered very quickly. Except for the two wisps of energy of the thunder of nirvana in his mind sea and qi sea, Zhang Tie had been as vigorous as before on the 4th day after he woke up for the second time with the medical treatment of Du Zhongling the Immortal Medical Pills, Fei Zhengtao the Medicine Sage and Sun Tiancheng the Medicine King in various methods.

Lately, the crown prince didn't come to Qianji Manor anymore. However, His Majesty would assign his subordinate or female director in the imperial palace to inquire about Zhang Tie's sickness in Qianji Manor every day with items from the imperial warehouse. Those officials in imperial financial and living affairs ministry almost came here to visit Zhang Tie every day. Some sent contracts of the estate of Qianji Manor; some sent imperial chefs to help Zhang Tie adjust his diet; even tailors, brewers, gardeners and hostlers of imperial financial and living affairs ministry were sent to Qianji Manor by batches.

As the imperial financial and living affairs ministry was exclusive to imperial households, all the personnel assigned to Qianji Manor actually served imperial households, including the crown prince previously. These people had top abilities across the country. At the order of the crown prince, they were sent to Qianji Manor to serve Zhang Tie. Therefore, Zhang Tie had a chance to experience the living of imperial households although being not in the imperial palace.

Growing up in Lord Guangnan's Mansion, Bai Suxian was very familiar with affairs in the mansion and possessed great demeanor. Zhang Tie then had Bai Suxian take charge of the internal affairs of Qianji Manor. As for Zhang Tie himself, he just waited for someone to put on his clothes, eat a ready-cooked meal, watch beauties dance and flirt with Yan Feiqing and Bai Suxian day by day.

After the large-scale war between knights over 3 months ago, demons suffered a great loss. Besides a heavenly demon knight and 5 shadow demon knights who were killed by Zhang Tie, it was said that the demon general itself was also heavily injured by Zuoqiu Mingyue. The demon army had already retreated 300 miles away from Weishui River. As a result, human army and demon army were in a new stalemate, which was relatively calm for the time being; especially after the thaw set in, the latest round of attack of the demon army would be launched at least in winter.

As for Heavens Reaching Empire, the disappearance of those powers caused some chaos to those provinces inside the region occupied by demons. The remnants of Heavens Reaching Church were in great confusion. In this case, the demon army could barely launch a large-scale attack. Therefore, they could only stop it for the time being. Over these months, the demon army still brought stress to Taixia Country in Helan Mountain Range. The troops of both parties were still in fierce battles in that region. Although Taixia Country's individual fighters couldn't match that of demon fighters in battle strength, with the support of a multitude of fiery-oil weapons, Taixia Country was still not in disadvantageous position over there.

Not only that, besides regular elite corps of Taixia Country, many clan elites and paladins also entered the Helan Mountain Range, most of which were above LV 10. They entered that region to hone themselves and adapt to fight with demon troops; some were for bounty award. After these heroes poured in that region, the gaps between Taixia Country and demons on the ground forces and the armed forces were further evened up. As of now, Helan Mountain Range had completely become a battlefield for powerhouses below knights between humans and demons.

In Huanzhou Province, Kangzhou Province, Ningzhou Province and Military Province, after Zhang Tie was appointed as Weiji General of the Western Theater of Operations last year, the bumper harvest helped the four provinces to recover its vitality completely. With the further expansion of production capacity of Fiery Oil, Pilot Training Academy spread over the country, leading to a greater army of air cavalries. In only a few months, Taixia Country had already matched its second-tier troops with fiery-oil weapons in the Western Theater of Operations. With the completion of the spring plowing across the Western Theater of Operations, the homecoming tide even happened in some places of the 4 provinces——Those major clans which escaped away from the 4 provinces last year constantly assigned people back to deal with their undertakings in the four provinces.

The decline of demon forces and the recovery of human forces determined that this holy war would definitely last long. As long as demons didn't gain an overwhelming advantage over Taixia Country again, the battle situation at Weishui River could remain stable for a couple of decades.

Zhang Tie learned this information after waking up when he became completely reassured.

If Weishui River was in peace, Jinwu City and Fiery-Dragon Prefecture in Youzhou Province would remain as peaceful as before. Not only that, after the news that Zhang Tie killed a heavenly demon knight by striking it 9 times with a rod spread over there, Jinwu City and Fiery-Dragon Prefecture had been pretty boisterous these months. Besides those major clans in Youzhou Province and Northeast Military Region, all the major clans from the other military regions had assigned representatives to visit Zhang family with precious gifts too, even from far away.

Those who would like to marry their female youngsters to Zhang Tie and Zhang Yang, have their clan disciples join Iron-Dragon Sect and strike up an acquaintance with Zhang family were as many as fish across the river.

What Zhang Tie had not imagined was that many major clans which were gagging for establishing marital relationships with Zhang family in Jinwu City and Fire-Dragon Bounty Territory had fixated onto the children of Zhang Tie and Zhang Yang. As a result, Zhang family's third generation became pretty popular.

According to the schedule, Zhang Yang would come to Xuanyuan Hill for Zhang Tie by airboat after Zhang Tie woke up for 2 days. However, due to an emergency, Zhang Tie's elder brother had to postpone it for a few more days.

The emergency was that Zhang Tie's parents also wanted to go to Xuanyuan Hill with Zhang Yang.

Like before, in order to make their parents reassured, Zhang Yang only told their parents that Zhang Tie suffered wounds in the frontline and was accepting the best medical treatment in Xuanyuan Hill.

In the beginning, Zhang Tie's parents were reassured as they thought that Zhang Tie was not severely injured. Additionally, being in Xuanyuan Hill, Zhang Tie should be fine. However, when Zhang Tie's military exploits and the news that Zhang Tie was close to death and couldn't wake up anymore after being struck by the thunder of nirvana spread over the world, as long as Zhang Tie's parents took a walk in the streets, they would hear various gossips about Zhang Tie. By then, Zhang Yang's white lie didn't work anymore.

During the period when Zhang Tie was in a coma, Zhang Tie's parents were always worried about him. If not Zhang Yang pointed to the sky and swore that Zhang Tie was still alive and was receiving the medical treatment of some national level imperial doctors, they might have long come to Xuanyuan Hill.

This time, after hearing that Zhang Tie had already woken up and recovered, being afraid of getting cheated by Zhang Yang again, their parents also wanted to see Zhang Tie in Xuanyuan Hill out of concern.

Besides Zhang Tie's parents, Aimei, Aixue, Linda, Fiona and Beverly wanted to visit Zhang Tie on behalf of Zhang Tie's wives and concubines in Ironheart Palace of Fiery-Dragon Bounty Territory along with his kids.

After receiving the news, Elder Muyuan also came to Xuanyuan Hill to visit Zhang Tie on behalf of the other elders of Huaiyuan Palace.

Therefore, a great batch of family members finally would like to go to Xuanyuan Hill. Before they left home, of course, they had to deal with domestic affairs properly. As a result, a few more days were required.

Everything was in the right place, in the frontline and at home. Therefore, Zhang Tie just stayed at his manor for recuperation. By the way, he would wait for the arrival of his family members.

These days, peach flowers were in full bloom and most beautiful in Xuanyuan Hill. Therefore, Zhang Tie expected for such a family reunion in Xuanyuan Hill in this period, more or less. Zhang Tie knew that it would be his parents' first time to visit Xuanyuan Hill.

After being told that Zhang Tie's parents were coming, Bai Suxian became more passionate. She had long made people prepare the rooms and daily needs for Zhang Tie's family members. She really expected to show off her talent on management as a princess to Zhang Tie's parents.

These days, Du Zhongling, Fei Zhengtao and Sun Tiancheng came to review Zhang Tie's sickness every day. In gradual recovery, Zhang Tie became more aware of his sickness. Zhang Tie knew that the problem caused by the thunder of nirvana couldn't be cured by average medical pills and skills.

One day, after reviewing Zhang Tie's sickness, Du Zhongling, Fei Zhengtao and Sun Tiancheng frowned as they were discussing about which medicine and skills to use to eliminate the effect of the thunder of nirvana in Zhang Tie's body, Zhang Tie waved his arm over the table, displaying 3 jade cases in front of the three national level imperial doctors.

As Zhang Tie had not recovered his spiritual energy in his mind sea, he still couldn't use his skills as a divine dominator. The increasing spiritual energy was being constantly devoured by the energy similar to that of a black hole. Even so, the remaining spiritual energy in his mind sea was available to space-teleportation equipment, including Castle of Black Iron.

These days, under the gaze of so many people, Zhang Tie didn't have a chance to enter Castle of Black Iron to take a look at the human fruit of redemption; however, it was no problem for him to use space-teleportation equipment in front of the public.

No sooner had the 3 jade cases been presented than the entire room was filled with an ethereal fragrance. With a sense of bizarre magic and flexibility, when one sniffed it, one would feel much younger...

After presenting the jade cases, Zhang Tie watched the three national level imperial doctors with a smile...
