Castle of Black Iron

There were always accidents in one’s life!

Like how Six-armed Demon Emperor had not predicted that Zhang Tie was hiding aside and destroying his good plan, Zhang Tie had not imagined that Star Emperor was hiding aside either; not to mention that Star Emperor could grab the black tower at the critical moment.

At this moment, Zhang Tie finally understood why Star Emperor and Force Emperor didn’t show up in Woods Medium-sized Domain although Woods Medium-sized Domain was in great turmoil and Force Emperor Immortal Palace and Heavenly Sunshine Immortal Palace were confronting each other with daggers and had caused heavy casualties. Perhaps what had happened in Mountain Ruins was more important than that in Woods Medium-sized Domain.

However, compared to Force Emperor who always behaved in a righteous and heroic way, Star Emperor’s methods were more mysterious and unpredictable.

Star Emperor’s strike sent Zhang Tie flying back and injured him. At this moment, although Zhang Tie had not acquired the black tower, he still didn’t feel too sad or unacceptable when he found that the black tower fell in the hands of Star Emperor. The pitiful whim just flashed by. Instead, he felt a bit reassured. After Star Emperor showed up and acquired the black tower, he could share some stress with Zhang Tie from demons.

No matter how cunning and selfish was Star Emperor, he was after all a human. This point alone was enough for Zhang Tie. From ancient times, emperors or heroes were not necessarily kind-hearted men or sages who had perfect morals. As long as they could benefit most of the people, the ethnic groups and the country as a whole and hold their ground in front of enemies or major issues, they could still preserve their prestige despite they were vicious, merciless and use unscrupulous divisive tactics.

The fact that the black tower fell in the hands of a human was definitely better than it fell in the hands of a demon.

Zhang Tie was very scared of Star Emperor; however, he didn’t hate him too much.

Soon after Star Emperor acquired the black tower, Zhang Tie’s substitute had been broken into pieces by that spider demon in black cloak. Before death, Zhang Tie’s substitute exerted his full efforts to penetrate through the spider demon’s protective battle qi; at the same time, the spider demon inserted one claw into Zhang Tie’s chest. In a split second, Zhang Tie and the spider demon turned into pieces…

‘F*ck, I miss another fire chakra…’

Zhang Tie pitied the fire chakra of spider demon in black cloak when his substitute died.

At this moment, standing far away, Zhang Tie wiped off his mouth corners and watched Star Emperor, Six-armed Demon Emperor and so many demon generals with sparkling eyes as he racked his mind and considered how to get something from demons before getting rid of them.

Although his substitute had already killed two demon generals, Zhang Tie’s original body had gotten no benefits. Zhang Tie couldn’t accept it; especially when there were so many fire chakras right in front of him…

The appearance of Star Emperor reversed the situation at once; at the same time, Six-armed Demon Emperor and so many demon generals became still at a stroke too. None of them dared surround Star Emperor for the time being. Six-armed Demon Emperor glanced at Star Emperor, Force Emperor who was fighting those supreme-level immortal generals and Zhang Tie one after another with sparkling gloomy eyes. Nobody knew what it was thinking about.

Perhaps they had already received the message of Six-armed Demon Emperor, those demon generals in form of Dragon Demon Battle Formation who were already disadvantaged didn’t mean to fight Force Emperor anymore. Facing a 10,000-m long snow-white saber light, the dragon demon battle formation collapsed in a split second. Force Emperor burst out into laughter as he approached Star Emperor, Six-armed Demon Emperor and Zhang Tie in only a few seconds.

At the same time, those demon sage-level knights who had just formed the Dragon Demon Battle Formation also arrived there and surrounded Star Emperor, Force Emperor, Six-Arm Demon Emperor and Zhang Tie.

Two human immortal emperors were here. By contrast, only Six-armed Demon Emperor could fight the two human immortal emperors. If the battle broke out, so many demon generals couldn’t form a complete battle formation at all. Even though they could fight a human immortal emperor, they couldn’t take the upper hand, not to mention stopping a human immortal emperor from leaving here. Therefore, both parties just confronted each other while holding their nerves.

Force Emperor and Star Emperor were both dauntless. By contrast, demons were pretty unwilling to accept the fact. Gnashing its teeth, Six-armed Demon Emperor gazed at the black tower in the hand of Star Emperor with its strongest qi and surging black battle qi. It was ready for launching a strike at any time.

As for Zhang Tie, he was absolutely neglected by those unrivaled powers given his battle force.

“Hahaha, it’s really boisterous here…” Force Emperor flew over here with a huge saber on his shoulder. He stopped thousands of meters away from Star Emperor and Six-armed Demon Emperor. Following after, he glanced at Six-armed Demon Emperor with his sharp eyes under dense eyebrows. Finally, he fixed his eyes on “Cui Li”. After glancing at Zhang Tie from his head to toe, Force Emperor said with a faint frown, “Invisible Shen bead, are you red and blue devils? But you don’t look like them according to the descriptions of the gossips…”

Zhang Tie and his substitute had just shown up out of the air; no wonder Force Emperor would treat Zhang Tie and his substitute as red and blue devils.

Before Zhang Tie spoke, Star Emperor had answered, “Lu Lanfeng the Lightfeather Lord of Light Feather Immortal Palace and I acquired two invisible Shen beads from Mountain Ruins. Lu Lanfeng even gifted his invisible Shen bead to one of his disciples. Pitifully, his disciple was killed by red and blue devils. Therefore, that invisible Shen bead fell in the hands of red and blue devils. However, red and blue devils had long been killed in Brokenstars Sea. Of course, their invisible Shen bead fell in the hands of someone else…” After saying that, Star Emperor glanced at Zhang Tie with his long, narrowed eyes with deep meaning in his eyes…

After hearing Star Emperor’s words and having an eye contact with Star Emperor, Zhang Tie let out a sigh as he knew that Star Emperor had already guessed Zhang Tie’s real identity——it was Star Emperor who employed red and blue devils to eliminate the crew of the branch of Dragon Emperor Immortal Palace in Heavenly Square City in Brokenstars Sea. Later on, Zhang Tie experienced Star Emperor’s spiritual trick in the mind sea of a demon general whom Star Emperor gifted to him. Given Star Emperor’s wisdom, he could easily know that red and blue devils were killed by Zhang Tie in Brokenstars Sea. Of course, the invisible Shen bead of red and blue devils fell in the hands of Zhang Tie. Although Zhang Tie had disguised as Cui Li, his invisible Shen bead could still expose a lot of information.

“It’s not a big deal. No matter what, you’re better than red and blue devils the two scumbags. Given that you dared fight a demon emperor, you must be a tough man. I promise you to leave here alive today…” Force Emperor told Zhang Tie resolutely in an extremely domineering way, “Oh, may I know your name? I’ve not heard about you among the humans in Motian Realm.”

“Hahaha, he is Zhang Tie, the incumbent Dragon Emperor. Your Majesty Force Emperor, how could you not hear about him…” an abrupt voice suddenly sounded around them. After hearing this voice, Zhang Tie changed his face at a stroke because it was from Versatile Demon Emperor.

At the same time, it appeared 70 miles away. Then, it came to the front of all the others only with a few flashes.

It was in red robe with silver hair and beard, a wrinkled face, a pair of profound eyes and a tall nose which looked like a hawk beak. At the sight of this uninvited guest, Star Emperor and Force Emperor shrunk their eyes at once. At the same time, Six-armed Demon Emperor’s eyes flickered as if it was considering something; however, it was still a bit scared about it…

“It’s a grand event for 5 human and demon emperors to gather together in Mountain Plain, Your Majesty Dragon Emperor, why do you hide yourself?” Versatile Demon Emperor spoke to Zhang Tie with a faint smile.

‘Damn it!’

Zhang Tie revealed a bitter smile. After his invisible Shen bead was exposed, Star Emperor might guess Zhang Tie’s real identity. In the eyes of Versatile-Demon Emperor, it was nothing different than admitting that he was Zhang Tie. As Star Emperor didn’t know that Zhang Tie had activated his body-changing immortal bloodline, he might still be a bit confused about that. However, Versatile Demon Emperor knew that Zhang Tie could disguise as Cui Li.

Previously, Zhang Tie thought that he could promote to a semi-sage level knight secretly in Mountain Ruins; unexpectedly, after coming to Mountain Ruins for less than a month, his identity of Cui Li had been exposed; especially to those more powerful ones in Motian Realm.

Watching Versatile Demon Emperor approaching them, Zhang Tie took in a deep breath as he changed back to his original look——a 17-year old handsome teenager.

“A disguised demon?” Force Emperor squinted his eyes as his qi surged all of a sudden.

“No, it’s a deity’s bloodline…” Star Emperor gazed at Zhang Tie as if it was his first time to recognize Zhang Tie.

Watching Zhang Tie restoring his original look, Six-armed Demon Emperor looked around as if it was afraid that Zhang Tie’s “master” would come out again. At this moment, if one more human immortal emperor was here, it would be more impossible for Six-armed Demon Emperor to get the black tower…

After restoring his original look, Zhang Tie felt reassured, frank and open-minded at a stroke. ‘Those who should come would come sooner or later. After all, even Versatile Demon Emperor have known that, I won’t be afraid that it’s exposed to others.’

After changing back to his original look, Zhang Tie talked to Force Emperor and Star Emperor with a smile, “Please forgive me, I’ve not imagined that I could meet you here. The reason that I disguised as Cui Li lay in that I was chased by Versatile Demon Emperor these days. Despite I’ve survived his traps for a few times, I have to protect myself to a certain degree…”

“What? You were chased by Versatile Demon Emperor?” Force Emperor took a look at Zhang Tie, then Versatile Demon Emperor with deep confusion. Despite being an immortal emperor, Force Emperor still felt confused.

Not only Force Emperor, even Star Emperor felt a bit confused. He didn’t know about the old scores between Dragon Emperor and Versatile Demon Emperor at all, not to mention that Zhang Tie was chased and hiding in such an embarrassed way.

“Let me tell you. Zhang Tie was not born in Motian Realm; instead, he came from another world…” Versatile Demon Emperor said with a grim smile as it exposed another major news,” When I met him for the first time, I found the surging points on his spine was lit after he was born. These days, he stayed with Bian Heng. I’m afraid that Bian Heng had mixed some primordial qi into his surging points on the spine; therefore, you couldn’t discover his difference. Additionally, this man has mastered a lot of odd secret skills. Even though the former Dragon Emperor in Dragon Emperor City was disguised by him. The real Dragon Emperor had been killed over 900 years ago. This man disguised as the late Dragon Emperor and Dragon Emperor’s disciple. In this way, he usurped the throne of Dragon Emperor and cheated people everywhere. Even I feel ashamed for his deed…”

Of course, Versatile Demon Emperor had its deep meaning by saying that. Previously, it thought that Zhang Tie would be flurried by its words; unexpectedly, after hearing its words, Zhang Tie became completely calm…
