“Erm…the two space-teleportation equipment…is too expensive. Additionally, the monthly provision of our peak is too much…” Lu Zhongming said bashfully.
“This is the treatment for the owner of each peak and each elder of Iron-Dragon Sect. Don’t decline any more. The space-teleportation equipment belong to Iron-Dragon Sect; however, you have the usage right. Don’t have any mental burden. As for the monthly earth-element crystals, Iron-Dragon Sect has countless money; additionally, Lord Guangnan’s Mansion and Heavens Fortune Sect will convert some of my profits into element crystals and send them to me every year. So will the other cooperators. Therefore, you don’t need to worry that such a bit provision would drag down Iron-Dragon Sect. If you two could promote to an earth knight in the future, it might also be a good thing for our Iron-Dragon Sect…” Zhang Tie threw a glance at Mountain Lifting Hermit quietly after saying that.
Mountain Lifting Hermit directly showed the space-teleportation equipment that Zhang Tie gave him to them as he said, “I’ve also got a space-teleportation equipment presented by the master. Don’t decline any more. As Taixia’s overall situation is becoming more and more chaotic, it’s safer if we could have a space-teleportation equipment. Now that we’ve joined Iron-Dragon Sect, just follow the rules!”
“If so…we will… keep them…”
Lu Zhongming and Lin Huanxi threw a glance at each other before taking their space-teleportation finger rings.
There were 72 earth-element crystals and gold notes which were worth 1 million gold coins in each space-teleportation finger ring. These provisions could meet the demand of Immortalspring Peak and the cultivation of Lu Zhongming and Lin Huanxi in next year.
Lu Zhongming sighed with feelings inside as he looked at Zhang Tie, ‘What a Qianji Hermit! Although it has just been a few months, Zhang Tie has become more profound and more imposing than before. It seems that his cultivation base had entered a mysterious realm. At the sight of him, I will regard him with reverence.’
Over these months, although Lu Zhongming and Lin Huanxi were not in Fire-Dragon Bounty Territory, they had also heard about what Zhang Tie did in the Sacred Iceland Kingdom. When they thought about Zhang Tie’s influence in the Sacred Iceland Kingdom and the mysterious heavens knight on his back, Lu Zhongming and Lin Huanxi both felt that Zhang Tie had other secrets. They could never seek through Zhang Tie.

When Zhang Tie manifested his trump cards such as immortal bloodline and Fiery Oil before they left, Lu Zhongming and Lin Huanxi both felt that they had known Zhang Tie pretty well. However, a few months later, they both felt that they seemingly knew nothing about Zhang Tie.
As Qianji Hermit often manifested his new trump cards, he was more awe-inspiring.
After considering such a rich treatment, the couple exchanged a glance with each other. They both felt that they had made a correct decision by joining Iron-Dragon Sect a few months ago.
“That’s it!” Zhang Tie finally revealed a faint smile after seeing Lu Zhongming and Lin Huanxi put away their space-teleportation finger rings as he added, “Thankfully, you came back today; if you came back two days later, you might not meet me for a period as I have to leave Fire-Dragon Bounty Territory 2 days later.”
“Master, you’ve also received the Xuanyuan command?” Lin Huanxi realized it at once.
“Huaiyuan Palace is a major clan in Youzhou Province. The head of Huaiyuan Palace is Youzhou provincial governor. Additionally, I have a bounty land in Youzhou Province. I received the message 3 days ago. According to the request of the Xuanyuan command, each clan with knights in Youzhou Province should at least assign 1/3 of its knights to receive the order of gathering. This time, I will go to the west border of Taixia Country to fight demons together with the other 2 elders of Huaiyuan Palace, Mountain Lifting Hermit and Suxian!” Zhang Tie said calmly.
Being issued by Xuanyuan Hill, Xuanyuan command was an emergency mobilization order to gather knights in Taixia Country, which represented the authority of the imperial court of Taixia Country and Emperor Xuanyuan. All the major clans, aristocratic official families, noble families of power and influence, sects, churches and knights who had one more city or over 6,000 square miles’ land should receive Xuanyuan command, including the top 7 clans in Taixia Country.
It only took Xuanyuan Hill less than 10 days to deliver the emergency Xuanyuan command since demons were found in a barren province in the west of Taixia Country.
Last time, Taixia Country delivered Xuanyuan command since the second holy war had broken out for over 30 years. Given the emergency of this Xuanyuan command, it must indicate the extremely critical situation outside the barren provinces of Taixia Country in the west. The demon corps and knights in the west of Taixia Country could not be resisted unless all the knights across Taixia Country were mobilized.
It was not a good omen for anyone living in Taixia Country. Those knights who were experienced in fighting demons immediately realized the great dangers. At this moment, human knights were urgently needed to resist demons in the west of Taixia Country. It was so urgent that Xuanyuan Hill had to deliver Xuanyuan command to gather human knights in Taixia Country regardless of the shocks and panics.
Actually, shocks and panics were inevitable after the Xuanyuan command was delivered!
…
“We will leave with you too, master!” Lu Zhongming immediately said.
“If you leave too, nobody would be responsible for Fire-Dragon Bounty Territory and Iron-Dragon Sect anymore. Additionally, you couple have been busy moving homes these months, you’d better be familiar with the current situation facing Iron-Dragon Sect and Fire-Dragon Bounty Territory first…”
After finding that Lu Zhongming still wanted to urge, Zhang Tie interrupted him calmly, “Each holy war would last long. It will not end in 5 years or 1 decade. Although our Iron-Dragon Sect is a bit famous, it’s not a major clan in Taixia Country; neither could it stand any large consumption. Iron-Dragon Sect should not assign all the knights in order to respond to the Xuanyuan command. 3 knights are enough. We should spare some strength to respond to more dangerous situations. You could go there by shifts in the future!”
Looking at Zhang Tie’s calm expression, Lu Zhongming and Lin Huanxi finally nodded.
…
This summit of Iron-Dragon Sect only lasted less than 1 hour. After confirming some other affairs of Iron-Dragon Sect, they adjourned. Lu Zhongming and Lin Huanxi returned to Immortalspring Peak; Mountain Lifting Hermit left one sentence before flying towards Pines Peak, “Remember to call me when we’re leaving…”.
The Pines Peak had the fewest population among all the 18 mountain peaks. As Mountain Lifting Hermit preferred to be quiet, he only kept some servants on his peak.
Only Zhang Tie and Bai Suxian were on Xuantian Peak.
Standing on the top of Xuantian Peak and watching the prosperous scenery at the foot of the mountain together with Bai Suxian, Zhang Tie finally let out a sigh, “What if we could have 2 more years to prepare?”
Although Zhang Tie knew that demons would come sooner or later, he still sighed with emotions about such a fierce and swift attack of demons.
These days, Fire-Dragon Bounty Territory was developing fast in all aspects. There were already 4 high-power alcohol production bases and 3 air cavalry training academies. Besides that air cavalry training academy in Xuantian City, Zhang Tie increased another 2 air cavalry training academies outside Ningan City and Wugong City respectively. Those aviation students of Fire-Dragon Corps who had just grasped how to drive airplanes immediately became aviation coaches so as to barely meet the demand of the new aviation academies.
Starting from Commander Cheng, each major clan in the northeast military region had started to have their clan disciples learn how to drive airplanes in Fire-Dragon Bounty Territory. Even though Zhang Tie rose the training fee of the pilot to 10,000 gold coins per person, he could still not weaken the passion of those major clans in the northeast military region.
After black armor army assigned people to learn how to drive airplanes, the aviation academy outside Xuantian City became more popular.
As for the first batch of aviation pilots trained by Fire-Dragon Bounty Territory, besides those who were kept for instructing new students, Zhang Tie had already assigned all the others to cooperate with clans and business groups within the northeast military region to build other aviation academies. Commander Cheng also supported it very much. However, it was still too hasty…
Besides aviation academies, except for meeting the basic demand for teaching in aviation academies, all the air cavalry type-I airplanes produced in Fire-Dragon Bounty Territory during this period had been purchased the moment they left the factory even though Donder priced it as high as that of an airship.
Generally, those business groups and clans only bought 1 or 2 airplanes. Therefore, they didn’t care about the price of the airplane. Zhang Tie also knew what did they want to do by purchasing those airplanes. All the air cavalry type-I might have been demolished after being purchased for the sake of learning, imitation and modification, etc… Therefore, Zhang Tie supported them pretty much instead of opposing them.
Given the large size of Taixia Country, even though Fire-Dragon Bounty Territory expanded its airplane production capacity by 10,000 times, it couldn’t meet Taixia Country’s demand for airplanes. Zhang Tie only wanted to stimulate it. As there were so many elites in Taixia Country, Zhang Tie even expected that the official and some clans in Taixia Country could manufacture better engines, airplanes and Fiery Oil depending on their powerful accumulations in manufacturing as soon as possible…
If they could have 2 years’ development, they would face an utterly different situation; however, demons didn’t spare them 2 years…
