After the airboat flew over prefectures and provinces, Zhang Tie"s family members finally arrived at Fire-Dragon Bounty Territory 3 days later.

The almost 1,000 m long imperial airboat slowly declined and parked on the top of Xuanyan Peak, Iron-Dragon Sect while mountains of people were waiting for them eagerly on the ground.

After the airboat steadily landed, Zhang Tie showed up at the hatch with a smile.

"Congratulate to your triumphant return, Suzerain!" All the disciples and elders of Iron-Dragon Sect called in unison. At the same time, the disciples of Iron-Dragon Sect knelt down and put their arms in front of them while all the elders of Iron-Dragon Sect bowed deeply towards Zhang Tie.

As for those disciples, it was a triumphant return given Zhang Tie"s military exploits above the Weishui River. Not only that, after Zhang Tie"s trump card as a divine dominator was exposed to the public, the social status of all the disciples of Iron-Dragon Sect skyrocketed immediately as they enjoyed a bright future. In Taixia Country, Penglai Immortal Island was the only sect owning divine dominators ahead of Zhang Tie. Based on the mysterious inheritance of divine dominator, Penglai Immortal Island became one of the top 7 sects in Taixia Country. The influence of the news that the master of Iron-Dragon Sect was a divine dominator posed to Iron-Dragon Sect was immeasurable.

Zhang Tie saw disciples from all peaks of Iron-Dragon Sect, Lu Zhongming, Lin Huanxi, Mountain Lifting Hermit, elders of Huaiyuan Palace, Zhang Taixuan the head of Huaiyuan Palace, Zhang Tie"s other wives, Donder, Barley, Sarwin, Bagdad, Leit and Hista.

Almost all the central figures on Zhang Tie"s side in Youzhou Province had arrived, except for Li Tao and Lu Yishan, who were still in the theater of operations.

When Zhang Tie served as Weiji General in the Western Theater of Operations, Li Tao and Lu Yishan were his myrmidons. In case of reproaches and declining morale, Zhang Tie didn"t promise them too high positions. However, after Zhang Tie resigned, Lu Yanyu ruled the rear area of the Western Theater of Operations. Due to their meritorious services and their relations.h.i.+p with Zhang Tie, Li Tao and Lu Yishan had been promoted to higher officials by Lu Yanyu. They were pretty brilliant now.

During the period when Zhang Tie received medical treatment in Xuanyuan Hill, Mountain Lifting Hermit, Elder Muray and Elder Muyu had been set free from Xuanyuan command and been dispatched back to Youzhou Province by Zuoqiu Mingyue.

After Zhang Tie was heavily injured, everybody across Fire-Dragon Bounty Territory, Youzhou Province was keeping a close eye on him. Additionally, Zhang Tie needed helpers urgently. It was also a wise choice for having elders of Iron-Dragon Sect and Huaiyuan Palace return to Fire-Dragon Bounty Territory, Youzhou Province. Of course, Zuoqiu Mingyue wouldn"t make a mistake on such an issue.

It was also reasonable for Zhang Taixuan to welcome Zhang Tie back given Zhang Tie"s status as the grand elder of Huaiyuan Palace and his meritorious services.

Zhang Tie got off the airboat, closely followed by his parents, Zhang Yang, his wives and concubines.

When Yan Feiqing got off the airboat, almost everybody fixated onto her; however, they dared not gaze at her for too long because her qi field was too strong and oppressive for them.

Watching Yan Feiqing to get off the airport, Donder gave Zhang Tie a surrept.i.tious glance. Besides, he thumbed up towards Zhang Tie stealthily, which meant only——Brat, you rock! You could even f*ck a heavenly knight!

Zhang Tie then introduced Yan Feiqing to them.

With so many people at present, it was pretty boisterous. It took them almost 15 minutes to finish greetings and introductions.

After that, Zhang Yang took Zhang Tie"s parents away for a rest. Yan Feiqing and the other women of Iron-heart Palace communicated with each other in a room. Zhang Tie had Donder take the pillar members of Brotherhood away for a rest. As for Zhang Tie himself, he talked with the clan elders of Huaiyuan Palace in the Clan Head"s Pavilion.

After Zhang Tie"s female disciples served tea for them and left the Clan Head"s Pavilion, Zhang Taixuan uttered, "Elder Mushen, you promoted to a shadow knight, killed many demon knights above the bank of Weishui River. You even killed a demon prince by striking it 9 times with a rod. After receiving this news, all the disciples of Huaiyuan Palace were so spirited. Everybody in the world has known Huaiyuan Palace now. It"s all due to the meritorious services of Elder Mushen…"

After exposing the relations.h.i.+p between Zhang Tie and Yan Feiqing to the public, everybody in the world would accept the fact that Zhang Tie had promoted to a shadow knight because he had stayed in the tower of time with Yan Feiqing for 6 decades. What amazed people was that he was a divine dominator.

Zhang Taixuan didn"t ask him anything about the divine dominator; however, Zhang Tie still felt that he should explain it to clan elders in case of grudges.

"Clan head and clan elders, I need to tell you that I made a breakthrough in my skill of divine dominator when in Waii Subcontinent. The process was very risky. After promoting to a divine dominator, I could challenge knights at higher levels than me; however, my basic battle strength is not great. After coming to Taixia Country, I was wanted by the supreme court facing the pressure from the Gobbling Party. If I exposed my trump card as a divine dominator at that time, I might not be able to shock the opponents; instead, it might incur disasters to myself and Huaiyuan Palace. Therefore, I had been keeping this secret. Hopefully, the clan head and clan elders could forgive me!" Zhang Tie said sincerely as he cupped his hand towards Zhang Taixuan, Elder Muyuan, Elder Muan and Elder Muray, Elder Muyu and Elder Muen.

"That"s fine. That"s fine. As it"s of great significance, if you expose it to the public abruptly, it would be as cursory as a kid pa.s.sing a boisterous market carrying gold in arms!" Zhang Taixuan nodded with a smile as if he was understanding. All the other elders rooted for Zhang Tie"s deed as they nodded.

"Oh, Elder Mushen, here are the items that you gave us before coming to the theater of operations…" Elder Muray and Elder Muyu exchanged a glance with each other. After that, they took out the s.p.a.ce-teleportation finger rings that Zhang Tie gifted them and put them on the table in front of them, "Silver secrets are in the finger rings. We"re not giving them back to their owner!"

Zhang Tie smiled. He didn"t take their items; instead, he took out 4 more s.p.a.ce-teleportation finger rings. After that, he stood up and gave them to Zhang Taixuan and the other clan elders, one for each, saying, "I"ve achieved a lot in the theater of operations from demon knights and knights of Heavens Reaching Church. I cannot use all of them. Therefore, I want to share them with you. As it"s in the holy war, as pillars of Huaiyuan Palace, if clan elders could be a bit more powerful, Huaiyuan Palace would be more peaceful. If you want to give them back to me, wait until the end of the holy war…"
