Chapter 1498: Zhang Tie's Answer

"I know you're all concerned about me and want to know what happened to me these days. However, I could only tell you that I was screwed and poisoned by Soul Leave in Wild Lake Building. As a result, I was in a dilemma these days. The culprit did that for Zhang family's all-purpose medicaments and fiery oil. The employed knight surnamed Liu who had been killed by Zhang Gui in Jinwu City was a piece that the culprit had long set in Jinwu Business Group. Thankfully, I got out of the trouble yesterday by secret means and killed a lackey of that culprit..."

Zhang Tie had considered it for a long while. He didn't want to keep it from his friends and family members; however, he found it improper to put something in details at this moment; instead, he just gave them an ambiguous explanation.

"Master, do you know the culprit?" Mountain Lifting Hermit continued.

"It's very complex. There might be more than one culprits. I've not figured it out yet. After a few days, I will give you an answer!"

All the knights at present were greater than commoners in sense and intelligence. After catching Zhang Tie's hesitance, they all knew that Zhang Tie had kept some secrets and didn't feel convenient to tell them now. Therefore, after exchanging a glance with each other, they remained silent.

Zhang Tie's event was really a bit weird. The time and opportunity to screw Zhang Tie was too coincident, not to mention the emergency in Jinwu City. The knight surnamed Liu was an old member of Jinwu Business Group; however, he had long been bought over by the culprit. Zhang Tie appeared having made preparation for such emergencies as he had made Zhang Gui stay in Jinwu City while hiding his real battle strength. After covering all these clues, all the people at present faintly sensed that the culprit of this conspiracy might not be remnants of Heavens Reaching Church and demons.

"As long as the master could come back safely, it would be the best answer for Iron-Dragon Sect!" Lu Zhongming said.

Zhang Tie lowered his head as his voice sounded negatively calm and decisive, "My two senior sister apprentices have been killed in the Wild Lake Building; my family was attacked; my parents almost got hurt. These days, you've spearheaded the efforts to look for me; therefore, it's not only concerned about me; I will give you a satisfactory answer!"

Since she entered the palace, Yan Feiqing had been watching Zhang Tie calmly with her beautiful eyes. Yan Feiqing's feeling about Zhang Tie's change was different than that of others. Lin Huanxi sensed that Zhang Tie was profound. Just now, when Zhang Tie said that he would give them a satisfactory answer, Yan Feiqing felt an unspoken pain, duty and silence from Zhang Tie; additionally, he was like a heart-wrenching, despairing beast being mired in a dilemma.

Among all the people on his side, it was not Zhang Tie's parents, Bai Suxian or Guo Hongyi who understood him most, but Yan Feiqing. After living with Zhang Tie for 6 decades, Yan Feiqing had long become the one who understood Zhang Tie most in this world. Only she could understand Zhang Tie's pain from his eyes and body. The pain finally turned into cruelty, which was of himself; not towards others. Yan Feiqing appeared seeing Zhang Tie opening his own chest using a saber and digging out his heart before cutting off a part of his heart and burning it into ashes and spraying it in the air.

The calmer Zhang Tie looked, the crueler he would treat himself.

When Zhang Tie exchanged a glance with Yan Feiqing, Yan Feiqing's heart raced abruptly.

Because Zhang Tie had also sensed that Yan Feiqing might have sensed something. Zhang Tie knew that Yan Feiqing understood him most than anyone else at present; therefore, he passed an undoubtedly overbearing and decisive message to her through his eyes——I will handle this thing; it's none of your business!

Usually, Zhang Tie would adopt Yan Feiqing's suggestion on many aspects, except for this case.

After finding that everyone else became silent, Zhang Tie fixated on Guo Hongyi who had been watching him with a concerned look, "Since we met at the bank of Weishui River, I've not have talked too much with you. Whereas, you suffered a lot for me many times. I'm so sorry..."

"It's my pleasure. I love you. Therefore, I would do anything for you pleasantly!" Guo Hongyi said as her eyes turned wet; however, she still looked straight into Zhang Tie's eyes decently and decisively without being contentious.

"Which peak do you like among the 18 Xuantian peaks. How about choosing a settlement for yourselves?" Zhang Tie watched Guo Hongyi and Yan Feiqing on her side, which denoted that they had become his wives. Now that Bai Suxian had a peak here, Yan Feiqing and Guo Hongyi should also have one. The two people might not treasure such a peak; however, if they didn't have one, they would definitely feel uncomfortable. Zhang Tie understood women pretty well.

Guo Hongyi fixated on Yan Feiqing. After being silent for 2 seconds, Yan Feiqing answered, "Flying Phonex Peak then. Although I'm Hongyi's master, we're sisters in Fire-Dragon Bounty Territory!"

Zhang Tie nodded silently.

...

After having a gathering with Mountain Lifting Hermit, Lu Zhongming and Lin Huanxi, the elders of Huaiyuan Palace and Zhang Taixuan hurriedly left for Iron-Dragon Sect by airboat after hearing about Zhang Tie's return.

The moment he got off the airboat, Zhang Taixuan had revealed a surprising look at the sight of Zhang Tie. Before Elder Muyuan, Elder Muray and the other clan elders moved, Zhang Tiaxuan had strode forward as he gave Zhang Tie a big hug and said excitedly, "It's so nice to see Elder Mushen coming back. It's the felicity of Fire-Dragon Bounty Territory and Huaiyuan Palace. Elder Mushen is always fortunate and gets the help of the God; of course, you could resolve the difficulty..."

Since Zhang Taixuan appeared, Zhang Tie had been gazing at him calmly. Not until Zhang Taixuan came over here and gave him a hug did Zhang Tie reveal a smile, saying, "It's said that clan head has been so busy looking for me these days. I'm so sorry about that..."
