Castle of Black Iron Chapter 1717 The Return of Friends

At noon, sunlight penetrated through clouds and cast onto the earth, making it a bit warmer. When the snow was about to melt, such a rare good day also made it melt a bit faster. 

When Huang Baimei and Leng Manxue’s airboat landed at the airport of Dragon Emperor City again, the ground was wet over there, which meant that the snow had just melted. The remaining snow was made into piles in the parterres and lawns, which were becoming increasingly smaller. When they got off the airboat, before they had a chance to observe the changes in this airport, they had seen an immortal general who was waiting for them with reverence in front of the hatch door. 

The immortal general was Chang Qianxun the earth immortal general who escorted Zhang Tie back to Dragon Emperor Pavilion when he came back to Dragon Emperor City. At this moment, Chang Qianxun was spirited while his face was glowing with health. He was in a wholly new set of uniform, on the wristband of which, there was a dragon pattern of six silver threads. When Zhang Tie saw him a few days ago, there were only five silver threads over there. 

“May I know whether you’re Mr. Huang Baimei and Miss Leng Manxue?” Chang Qianxun immediately strode towards them and asked when he saw Huang Baimei and Leng Manxue getting off the airboat.

After taking a look at Chang Qianxun, Huang Baimei nodded, “We are. You’re…”

“I’m the guards’ leader of His Majesty. After knowing that you two are coming back today, His Majesty especially sent me here to pick you up. This way, please…” Chang Qianxun explained as he made a hand gesture to invite them to ride on two robust flying lizards right beside them. Huang Baimei and Leng Manxue threw an exchange with each other as they mounted the flying lizards respectively before heading for the exit of the airport together with Chang Qianxun.

The two flying lizards were the best purple-pupil flying lizards in Motian Realm, which had strong endurance and high speed. Besides, they could wade into the water. As their wings had not fully degenerated, they could realize a short-distance flight, not to mention climb over mountains. Such a flying lizard could match hundreds of common flying lizard. Even the broad saddles were shiny as if they were new. With beautiful cloud patterns, they felt pleasant and comfortable. 

The moment the two people came to the avenue outside the airport, their rare, robust purple-pupil flying lizard had attracted the attention of the passers-by.

Compared to the poor treatment when they came back to Dragon Emperor City from Heavenly Square City at the beginning, Huang Baimei and Leng Manxue couldn’t almost adapt to such a good treatment. 

In fact, the two people didn’t even believe in that Zhang Tie had already become the Dragon Emperor.

When they left Dragon Emperor City last time, Zhang Tie had not even found his job yet. When they arrived at Blacksilver Snow Mountain, they heard that Zhang Tie beat a disciple of Elder Shi and Zhou Baifei on the day when they left Dragon Emperor City. After that, he was caught by people in Supervision Department. Finally, he was appointed as the director of Dragon Emperor Pavilion by Elder Xia. He was almost the poorest guy among all the water immortal generals who attended Dragon Emperor Immortal Palace lately. How could he become the owner of Dragon Emperor Pavilion in such a period of time? It was impossible even if it was an inside job. 

Huang Baimei and Leng Manxue were so amazed. Suppose, someone was eating kebabs with you a few days ago; he even borrowed 500 yuan from you. However, after you came back from a business trip, you found that the guy had already ranked top on the list of billionaires. That was how Huang Baimei and Leng Manxue felt at this moment.

Unbelievable! It was unbelievable!

When they heard what happened in Dragon Emperor City when Dragon Emperor appeared there that night, Huang Baimei and Leng Manxue felt completely like having a dream. However, it was real——After Dragon Emperor came back, he swept over all the evil forces in Dragon Emperor City in the blink of an eye. Besides solving the greatest crisis facing Dragon Emperor Immortal Palace, he also appointed Zhang Tie as the new Dragon Emperor.

Therefore, the young man who lost his memory and attended Dragon Emperor Immortal Palace’s branch in Heavenly Square City became the figure that they had to look up to. 

Zhang Tie had the Immortal Generals Department to call them back to Dragon Emperor City.

“Head, do you think Zhang Tie is really the disciple of Dragon Emperor?”

Leng Manxue couldn’t help asking Huang Baimei on the flying lizard.

As Chang Qianxun was riding a flying lizard ahead of them, Leng Manxue could only ask Huang Baimei secretly using her battle qi.

Commoners would not ask this question. However, as Leng Manxue knew Zhang Tie better than anyone else, she couldn’t help asking it. Leng Manxue was crystal clear about Zhang Tie’s look when he came to Heavenly Square City. Therefore, she couldn’t believe that Zhang Tie who knew nothing about Motian Realm in the reason of losing his memory was Dragon Emperor’s disciple.

Additionally, when Zhang Tie was discovered by someone at the beginning, he was in a coma due to heavy wounds. If he was Dragon Emperor’s disciple, who could make him so poor? If Zhang Tie was cultivating on Dragon Emperor’s side, he would not be hurt by anyone else. If Zhang Tie had experienced a lot of battles and difficulties after leaving Dragon Emperor, he must have long become well-known across Motian Realm over these years. That was an inexplicable paradox. As a result, Leng Manxue could barely accept the fact that Zhang Tie was the disciple of Dragon Emperor.

After leaving the airport, Huang Baimei became composed on the flying lizard. Eyes half closed, he was observing the passers-by, the pedlars, the guests in stores and the patrolling soldiers. After hearing Leng Manxue’s question, he slowly turned around as he said using his battle qi, “Don’t ask me about that. You will know it after looking at these people on the streets. Haven’t you felt that these people in Dragon Emperor City were different than that when we left Dragon Emperor City…”

“Different?”

“Hmm, look at their faces and eyes!”

After looking at them carefully, Leng Manxue gradually discovered the difference——many people’s faces and eyes looked more vigorous, hopeful even spirited than before.

“I see…” Leng Manxue slowly said after a short silence.

“Hmm, even the five elders and the two grand justices couldn’t refuse it. We’d better not worry about it. Manxue, keep it in mind——from now on, that young man is the Dragon Emperor of Dragon Emperor Immortal Palace. You’d better not call Zhang Tie in the public from now on. Additionally, the fewer people know what happened to him in Heavenly Square City, the better!” Huang Baimei watched Leng Manxue as if he was warning her; meanwhile, he felt being reassured, adding, “I feel that nobody else in Motian Realm could be Dragon Emperor’s disciple better than him…”
