After leaving Xujia Village, Iron-Dragon Airboat parked in Xingyu City for supply .

It was Zhang Tie's first time to replenish materials for his airboat after leaving Fire Dragon Bounty Territory . Although airboats of Taixia Country didn't need to replenish energy and fuel, people in the airboats had to eat and drink .

The central dynamic and suspension system of airboat was made of a metal called floating metal . It was said that this rare metal came from a mysterious place in Earth-elements Realm . As of now, only the imperial household of Taixia Country could get hang of the technique of making airboat using floating metal . It was said that this technology originated from a prehistoric civilization . Benefited from this technology and this special metal, airboats would never run out of energy .

Except for Gold and Power Law, all the other top 6 sects in Taixia Country exchanged something for the airboats of the imperial household of Taixia Country, including the Iron-Dragon Airboat that Zhang Tie won from Feng Yexiao, the grand elder of Taiyi Fantasy Sect .

'To a certain extent, the relationship between the imperial household of Taixia Country, which is the top sect in Taixia Country, and the top 7 sects in Taixia Country is similar to that between Iron-Dragon Sect and the major sects within Northeast Military Region . They mutually restrict and coexist with each other . The win-win situation based on the prosperity and stability of Taixia Country . As they share the same foundation, their relationships would never deteriorate . '

'However, the interest conflict between both parties, also the difference between the imperial household and the top 7 sects in Taixia country lies in that only one people across Taixia Country could ascend to the altar and throne of Emperor Xuanyuan . There is saint level above heavenly knight in both imperial household and the other seven top sects . However, the Xuanyuan God Sutra which is adopted by the imperial household of Taixia Country is the only emperor-level secret method that humans own today . Emperor Xuanyuan on saint level is the most dignified person among humans . With "Xuanyuan God Sutra", the imperial household overwhelms the top 7 sects in Taixia Country and stand on the peak of humans . The other 7 sects have to follow the order of the imperial household . Because of this, the relationship between the imperial household and the top 7 sects in Taixia Country wouldn't be too good . '

'In Taixia Country, everybody knows that Gold and Power Law as one of the top 7 sects has imperial household on their back . In the beginning, the imperial household of Taixia Country established Gold and Power Law and made it one of the top 7 sects in Taixia Country so as to compete with the other top 6 sects on many aspects . From then on, Gold and Power Law would do anything that the imperial household and the official of Taixia Country felt inconvenient to do on behalf of the latter . Of course, this would dissatisfy the other top 6 sects . So what? Gold and Power Law had Emperor Xuanyuan on its back . Although being an emperor, Emperor Xuanyuan wants to establish a sect for fun . '

'Nevertheless, Emperor Xuanyuan has been missing for many years . The holy war is growing fiercer . The inside of Taixia Country becomes increasingly unstable . Even the 6 top sects are eager for action . '

'Before the event in Zhongzhou Province, the dark forces in Taixia Country have been active . After such a catastrophe being similar to the catastrophe caused demonized puppets broke out in Zhongzhou Province, the hinterland of Taixia Country, the situation in Taixia Country becomes more intricate and might be intensified . '

Bai Suxian told Zhang Tie .

After one night stand, the two people were lying on the bed and looking at the stars above the crystal dome . At the same time, they were talking about the current situation facing Taixia Country .

As Bai Suxian was born and raised in Lord Guangnan's Mansion, after returning to Lord Guangnan's Mansion and meeting his dad Lord Guangnan, she knew better than commoners about the current situation facing Taixia Country .

With this woman on his side, Zhang Tie felt having one more adviser who knew the top intelligence about Taixia Country .



"Would those old d**chebags above heavenly knight level among the top 7 sects attack Xuanyuan Hill?" Zhang Tie asked Bai Suxian .

"Maybe . But commoners could not make a speculation about their methods and action time . Although my dad has made such a judgment, he couldn't make sure what those old d**chebags would do . After all, if Taixia Country is chaotic at this moment, none of the top 7 sects will make any benefits from it . However, it's impossible for them to ignore the current situation facing Taixia Country and Xuanyuan Hill . If they didn't do something, they would feel losing the best opportunity; if they did it excessively, the top 7 sects have to think about how to explain it to Emperor Xuanyuan if he suddenly comes back . Even though the top 7 sects are very powerful after combining with each other, they could not weaken the prestige of Emperor Xuanyuan in Hua people, either"

"If Xuanyuan Hill really went against the top 7 sects, which side would Lord Guangnan's Mansion stand on?"

"Neither!"

"Ohh!"

"The rank of nobility and bounty territory of Lord Guangnan were gained by the predecessors of Bai Clan in the former holy wars through blood and sweat; instead of being gifted by anyone . Therefore, Lord Guangnan's Mansion doesn't need to consider the others' moods . Principally, Lord Guangnan's Mansion should stand on the side of Xuanyuan Hill; however, the current situation is that Emperor Xuanyuan is missing . Xuanyuan Hill has lost its leader . Additionally, the foxtrel Fang Xinyi belongs to Qionglou Building, one of the top 7 sects in Taixia Country . If Xuanyuan Hill went against the top 7 sects in Taixia Country, my father might maintain neutral!"

"Maintain neutral!"

After hearing Bai Suxian's words, Zhang Tie's heart pounded, 'Given the position of Lord Guangnan, the father of Bai Suxian, he might not be the first one who knows the news that Emperor Xuanyuan is missing; however, he is definitely one of the first batches of people who know the news . If her dad determines to sleep with Bai Suxian's ladybro after receiving the news that Emperor Xuanyuan is missing, it would be interesting . After Emperor Xuanyuan disappeared, if Lord Guangnan married a woman from Qionglou Building, one of the top 7 sects in Taixia Country as his princess because he had predicted the possible conflict between Xuanyuan Hill and the top 7 sects one day, he must be very considerate . '

When Zhang Tie heard that Lord Guangnan made Bai Suxian's ladybro as her step-mother in Earth-elements Realm, he despised Lord Guangnan as he felt that he was too tasteless . As a lord, how could he fall out with his daughter only for a woman? What a weirdo!

However, after Zhang Tie figured out the relationship between the top 7 sects and Xuanyuan Hill, his impression about Lord Guangnan immediately reversed completely, 'This Lord Guangnan is really smart . '

Perhaps, Bai Suxian had guessed this reason; therefore, she just left Lord Guangnan's Mansion decisively and directly ignored it .

"Are the words that you told Liu Xing real? Are you worried that what happened in Zhongzhou Province might repeat in other places in Taixia Country?" Bai Suxian asked out of concern .

Zhang Tie let out a sigh, "Undoubtedly, the Heavens Reaching Church is on the back of those bloody figures . Now that Heavens Reaching Church could build a bloody sea in Zhongzhou Province, one of the 9 immortal provinces in Taixia Country, do you think that it's more difficult for them to build another one in other places?"



"Additionally, before the catastrophe broke out in Zhongzhou Province, few people knew about Wen Haoyun in Pingsha Valley, Longxi Prefecture, Zhongzhou Province . An average black iron knight could be a bit well-known locally; however, as long as he exits his prefecture or province, he becomes nothing . Now that Heavens Reaching Church could allow a black iron knight to manage a bloody sea beneath Pingsha Valley, Zhongzhou Province, it means that this bloody sea is not irreplaceable . Pingsha Valley is just a base of Heavens Reaching Church . It's not the core region of Heavens Reaching Church at all; otherwise, Heavens Reaching Church would feel not enough by assigning an earth knight to safeguard here; not to mention a black iron knight . Don't forget that demons and Heavens Reaching Church have hidden a lot of knight-level powerhouses in Taixia Country . Old Monster Qi whom I met in the Earth-elements Realm is one of them!"

"Third, the news that Emperor Xuanyuan is missing was released by demons in the battlefield of Earth-elements Realm . The moment this news was released, it soon spread among humans . The demons must have their reason to release this news at that time . After knowing that Emperor Xuanyuan is missing, the entire Taixia Country is shocked while dark forces started to become active . Right then, the bloody figures that were bred in the bloody sea underground Pingsha Valley had almost become mature . If not the loophole on Pingsha Valley's side, these bloody figures might still be in the bloody sea; even though they've become mature, they could also move secretly and nobody else would know that . Didn't you find any relation between the two events?"

"The time when demons released the news that Emperor Xuanyuan was missing is consistent with the time when the bloody figures in the bloody sea became mature!" Bai Suxian understood it right away .

"Of course it's not a coincidence but a part of the series of plots against Taixia Country and Hua people . The bloody figures that were bred underground Pingsha Valley were just LV 9 fighters . Even if there were 100,000 more LV 9 fighters, it was not a big deal for Taixia Country; at most aches for Taixia Country . They could not shake the base of Taixia Country at all . Hundreds of thousands of LV 9 fighters would be cleaned up after destroying one province at most when they have no high-level knight as their leader . In the holy war, Taixia Country could easily bear such a bit loss . After cooperating with each other, of course, demons and Heavens Reaching Church don't mean to only tickle Taixia Country . If I was the head of demons and Three-eye Association, I would establish as more bloody sea as possible . I would even establish at least one bloody sea in each province across Taixia Country . By then, with the assistance of the knight-level powerhouses of Heavens Reaching Church, each province would be plundered by bloody figures, leaving nothing but ruins . Only in this way could they shake the foundation of Taixia Country . Even if Taixia Country could pacify the catastrophe of bloody figures in the end, they would be severely damaged . Finally, Taixia Country would collapse from inside . . . '

When he caught those alive bloody figures, Zhang Tie had already read all of their memories . The first image that he gained from each bloody figure's memory was that they tore open the bloody ball in the bloody sea . Through their memories and visions, Zhang Tie saw what he wanted the most to see in Zhongzhou Province——the bloody sea underground Pingsha Valley .

After seeing the bloody sea which bred those bloody figures, Zhang Tie felt extremely disappointed .

The main raw materials of the bloody sea were gold and senior crystal . Gold and senior crystals might be precious for commoners; however, they were nothing different than common steel bars and cement for the one who could establish bloody sea .

The most important thing for establishing bloody sea was the set of rune secret method that was applied to those gold and crystals . As for the one who had grasped the rune secret method of the bloody sea, now that he had established the first bloody sea, it was not difficult for him to establish the 2nd, the 3rd and the 4th one as long as he had sufficient raw materials .

Like how a craftsman built houses . The more houses he built, the more skilled he would be .

With this intuitionistic recognition, Zhang Tie judged that Heavens Reaching Church and demons definitely had built one bloody sea in Taixia country .

This judgment was very important . Although Heavens Reaching Church and demons couldn't build the original type of the bloody sea, they could build the bloody sea which could produce LV 9 fighters . Additionally, they combined the bloody sea with puppet worms in a creative way . It was already enough for demons and Heavens Reaching Church to overthrow Taixia Country .

The bloody sea which was originally invented by the Bloody Soul Temple was more like a bloody demon sea in the hands of demons and Heavens Reaching Church .

After hearing Zhang Tie's words, Bai Suxian's tender naked body suddenly felt a bit cold as she drew closer to Zhang Tie silently and said, "If your prediction is true . Heavens Reaching Church might launch an overall rebel in Taixia Country after this batch of bloody figures in Pingsha Valley fully became mature . The period when the news that Emperor Xuanyuan was missing was released to the period when this batch of bloody figures in Pingsha Valley became mature was specially prepared for intensifying the conflict between the top 7 sects and Emperor Hill . When the two parties were both annoyed, it would satisfy the demons and Heavens Reaching Church for sure!"

"Yes . Additionally, I doubt that demons and Heavens Reaching Church might have shaper plots against Taixia Country and Hua people!"

"Sharper plots? You're worried that demons and Heavens Reaching Church might have more shaper means?"

"Yes, don't forget that Heavens Reaching Church excels at confusing people . They're good at involving commoners in . With the news that Emperor Xuanyuan was missing and these bloody figures who behave like mutated beasts, Heavens Reaching Church could not mobilize commoners . Only when the commoners lost their consciousness could the whole world become fully chaotic . That's what demons and Heavens Reaching Church want most! Additionally, I doubt that Heavens Reaching Church and demons have moles inside Taixia Country . He might hide in Xuanyuan Hill as a top chancellor . With the cover and assistance of this mole could Heavens Reaching Church silently build bloody seas one after another across Taixia Country . . . "

Bai Suxian let out a sigh faintly before saying, "After hearing your words, I don't know whether Taixia Country could tide over this holy war . Even if we could tide over this holy war, how severely damaged would our country be . If Taixia really perishes one day, will you leave me alone?"

"If there's really that day, I will take you to a place where even demons couldn't find us . We will live our own lives by eating and drinking; when we feel bored, we will deliver babies . . . " Zhang Tie let out a sigh too . . .

Although they both sighed, their sighs contained different meanings .

"Is there really such a place?" Bai Suxian threw a glance at Zhang Tie with flickering eyes .

"Believe me, there is!" Zhang Tie answered immediately .

Bai Suxian replied with a smile, "Even if you are lying to me to make me feel better, I'm already satisfied with your words!"

After saying that, Bai Suxian closed her eyes and fell asleep sweetly in Zhang Tie's cradle .

Zhang Tie looked up the stars . . .

Although the airboat was flying, the stars didn't move at all . Therefore, Zhang Tie felt asleep in a room on the ground instead of being in an airboat .

Of course, there was a place that could not be found by demons——Castle of Black Iron .

Previously, Zhang Tie had not considered about the size of Castle of Black Iron . However, lately, he had to think about it carefully . Now that he could see the possible crises across Taixia Country in the future, it was reasonable for him to think about the way of escape .

Zhang Tie liked Taixia Country; however, he had not imagined about sacrificing himself for Taixia Country one day . In Zhang Tie's opinion, living people counted most . As long as people were alive, everything else could be achieved .

At this moment, a whim occurred to Zhang Tie's mind, 'If there's really one day when Taixia Country perishes, I have to teleport all of my family members, relatives, friends, Bai Suxian, members of Iron-Dragon Sect and those people in Ice and Snow Wilderness into Castle of Black Iron . But whether Castle of Black Iron is big enough to hold all of them or not? After all, I alone have over 10 children . . . '

Zhang Tie realized that he had not expanded land resources for Castle of Black Iron for a long time . Therefore, he made a decision, 'Given the current situation facing Taixia Country, it seems that I should manage Castle of Black Iron well so that it could be available to all of us at the critical moment . '

'Besides further expanding the land resources in Castle of Black Iron, I should teleport as many plants and animals as possible into Castle of Black Iron . When the land in Castle of Black Iron was expanded, there would be more diversified ecological and mineral resources inside it and people inside it would live better . '

Zhang Tie remembered an experiment that zoologists and sociologists made before the Catastrophe . In that experiment, they put 10 mice into an enclosed paradise-like environment which could hold 1,000 mice and wanted to see the result .

At the beginning, all the mice behaved normally . They ate, drank and reproduced . Until the population of mice reached 1,000, the colony of rats suddenly collapsed . All the rats started to fight and kill each other in various methods until only dozens of rats survived . Although the living rats didn't fight and kill each other anymore, they couldn't live as casually as before and reproduce anymore . As a result, even the dozens of alive rats died .

Through this experiment, those zoologists and sociologists reached a conclusion——the desire for exploring the unknown world was the original driving force for the development and existence of human society . When human society lost their desire for exploration one day and its carrying capacity on materials and population reached its climax, humans would be at the verge of extermination .

Heller said that Castle of Black Iron was too small and incomplete; therefore, many things had not been bred yet . When Castle of Black Iron was big enough one day, it would derive a complete world .

'What's the look of the complete world?' After thinking about this question for a few seconds, Zhang Tie put it aside for the time being . . .

Zhang Tie was not afraid that those people inside Castle of Black Iron would lose their desire for exploration one day . After all, he could access to this world through Castle of Black Iron freely . If someone really felt bored inside Castle of Black Iron, Zhang Tie could throw him out to have fun with demons .

'What counts most now is that I should become stronger and make my backup more comfortable . I should make preparations for taking my beloved ones away from this world one day . I should also try my best to stop it from happening . I should try my best to save more commoners in the holy war until the end . '

'I will never let those b*stards of Heavens Reaching Church and demons destroy all this in front of me . '

'Previously, I had limited abilities . After promoting to an earth knight, with Fire-Dragon Bounty Territory, Iron-Dragon Sect and Jinwu City, I could actually do many things . '

'I've already damaged many plans of demons, Three-eye Association and Heavens Reaching Church, why not continue?'
