5 minutes later, the two parties encountered in the underground tunnel. Zhang Tie’s team was going downstairs while the other party was going upstairs.

There were totally 123 people on Zhang Tie’s side; however, there were only 5 people in the opposite, an old man with silver hair, a middle-aged man with a common look and 3 young men at their 20s.

‘Earth Knight?’

‘Earth knight!’

The moment Zhang Tie and that old man caught sight of each other, they had realized that the opposite was an earth knight. However, the old man was more shocked than Zhang Tie. The look of Cui Li was too young even as an earth knight. Earth knights at 30s were rarely seen. Additionally, Cui Li’s terrifying tower-like figure and aggressive bald head were pretty oppressive.

Bai Suxian’s look was also very outstanding. As a result, the 5 strangers couldn’t stand paying more attention to her. Besides being a bit mild in front of Zhang Tie, Bai Suxian’s elegant and noble movements sorted with her identity as the princess of Lord Guangnan’s Mansion very well.

The middle-aged man on one side of the old man was also a black iron knight. The two knights were followed by some young men, too.

After sensing each other’s situation, Zhang Tie and that old man nodded towards each other with a smile. After that, they passed by each other silently.

The middle-aged man on one side of the old man raised his head and threw a deep glance at Zhang Tie.

Zhang Tie’s team continued to walk downstairs; the old man’s team continued to walk upstairs.

When they approached the ground and saw the light at the entrance of the cave, the old man tilted his head and asked that middle-aged man, “What about him?”

When the average-look middle-aged man heard the old man’s question, he turned his head and said seriously, “Powerful, very powerful. That man is not only an earth knight, but he has also killed at least 2 earth demon knights and over 10 black iron demon knights…”

“At least 2 demon knights and over 10 black iron demon knights?” The old man took a deep breath. The 3 young men on their sides exchanged a glance with each other before changing their faces at the same time, “So many, are you sure?”

“Second Uncle, believe in me. The ancestral bloodline that I’ve awakened could help me observe the special killing qis left by those demon knights in that man’s qi field. The more demon knights he killed, the stronger and more well-bedded the killing qis would be. The killing qis in his qi field are too terrifying. Additionally, I could sense that this man has killed much more demon knights than that!”

“But I’ve not heard about such a terrifying earth-level powerhouse in Taixia Country.” The young man who opened his mouth just now asked with an amazed look, “He must be famous in the Earth-elements Realm!”

“Even the woman’s qi field contains some killing qis of black iron demon knights. Additionally, her perfume Dew of Moonlight came from the imperial financial and living affairs department in Taixia Country, which is specially designed for the imperial harem in Xuanyuan Hill and the wives of lords. Commoners could not use it at all. The two people are definitely not common…”

“Taixia Country is so large. There’re always many nameless powerhouses!” The old man frowned as he waved his hand and said, “Let’s talk about it back in the airboat…”

The moment they exited the entrance, they had seen the 500-m longer Iron-Dragon Airboat suspending near there in a domineering way like a far-ancient fierce beast. They were shocked immediately. Of course, those who came here by airboat knew that such a large airboat could not be bought in the market. Only imperial households, top 7 sects, some super clans, those moguls in Xuanyuan Hill and Lords’ clans across Taixia Country could have such a large airboat.

After throwing a few glances at Iron-Dragon Airboat, they returned to their own airboat.

The moment they boarded the airboat, the old man immediately told a young man, “Zhixuan, contact our clan and let them check the intelligence from Northeast Military Region, especially about sects!”

“Northeast Military Region? Second granduncle, why do you suddenly pay attention to Northeast Military Region? Especially the sects over there? I remember that there are only Immortal Fist Position Sect and some small- and medium-sized sects over there…” The young man called Zhixuan asked the old man with an amazed look while the other two people on his side watched the grand elder with dubious looks.

As the old man wanted to broaden the vision of these young disciples in his clan, he explained it very patiently instead of angrily, “You don’t have knight’s consciousness. Therefore, you don’t have sharp perceptions. Before I met them, I’ve heard those young men behind them whispering to each other in the tone of Youzhou and Yanzhou Provinces in Northeast Military Region. Additionally, those young men called each other senior and junior fellow apprentices. Additionally, most of those young men came from rich and aristocratic clans. Even the man and the woman should be the elders in their sect, if not their masters. Sects outside Northeast Military Region would not enroll disciples from Northeast Military Region.”

After hearing that, those young men watched the old man with admirable looks. His words implied his rich experience and intelligence. When those young men were guessing about the backgrounds of that team of strangers, their second granduncle had already speculated the backgrounds of that team of strangers.

Their airboat soon set off.

About 10 minutes later, the young man called Zhixuan received an intelligence. Holding a piece of paper, he walked into the command module of the airboat with a reverent look

——Cui Li the Fire Dragon Hermit held an opening ceremony of Fire-Dragon Sect within the territory of Fire Dragon Bounty Territory of Northeast Military Region on August 18. Additionally, he defeated Nangong Sheng, the master of Immortal Fist Position Sect who has entered the supreme realm of integrating his fist with the weather on the same day. It was said that Cui Li the Fire Dragon Hermit gained insight in his fist position when fighting Nangong Sheng and also entered the terrifying supreme realm of integrating his fist position with the climate.

——In the opening ceremony of Iron-Dragon Sect, Fire Dragon Hermit even took out 18 secret pearls as a gift, which shocked them pretty much.

——On the battlefield between humans and demons in Earth-elements Realm, Fire Dragon Hermit killed a shadow demon earth knight and was awarded Fire Dragon Bounty Territory.

——Over 1 month ago, Fire Dragon Hermit left Fire Dragon Bounty Territory by airboat with his 121 disciples.

——In a tall and sturdy figure, Fire Dragon Hermit has a domineering look with an eye-catching bald head. Bai Suxian the princess of Lord Guangnan’s Mansion always glues with Fire Dragon Hermit. They have left Fire Dragon Bounty Territory.

——It’s said that Fire Dragon Hermit won the airboat from Feng Yexiao, one of the 4 elders of Taiyi Fantasy Sect in the Earth-elements Realm. The details are not clear.

After combining these messages, everybody knew that they had met Fire Dragon Hermit’s team underground just now. That man must be Cui Li the Fire Dragon Hermit; that woman must be Bai Suxian the princess of Lord Guangnan’s Mansion.

After reading this intelligence, the old man revealed a bitter smile as he let out a sigh, “I’ve not imagined that there’s such a powerful dragon in Northeast Military Region. Pitifully, our Black Tiger Palace have missed a chance to establish a relationship with Iron-Dragon Sect…”

“Second Granduncle, will we…”

After thinking a short while, the old man shook his head before replying, “If we catch up with them from behind, we might be despised by them. Tell our business groups to pay more attention to Iron-Dragon Sect in Northeast Military Region. As long as there’s an opportunity, the young disciples of our clan could join Iron-Dragon Sect and learn some battle skills from Fire Dragon Hermit. With one more friend, our clan would have one more way in Northeast Military Region…”

“Second Granduncle, will we go to the Gold and Power Market now?”

“Of course! This year’s Treasures Meeting will be held in Gold and Power Market. Once every 7 years! As Gold and Power Law also has a great influence in other continents and subcontinent, the Treasures Meeting in Gold and Power Market will collect various treasures from all directions. If we’re fortunate, we could buy some good overseas items at lower prices! Of course, our Black Tiger Palace should take a round over there…”

All the 3 young men became thrilled with interested looks.

The old man and that average-looking middle-aged knight watched the sky outside the airboat with solemn looks. Their thought was similar to Zhang Tie——what if there’s such a bloody sea in each province?

The moment this whim occurred to their minds, the two people had exchanged a glance with each other as they all noticed a bit concern in each other’s eyes…

“Our Black Tiger Palace should make preparations in case of an emergency. Emperor Xuanyuan is missing. Many things are unreliable. The moment Taixia Country is in great chaos…” The middle-aged knight said in a secret way.

After being silent for a while, the old man slowly nodded…

…

The airboat of Black Tiger Palace flew away. Zhang Tie’s team was still walking downstairs in a casual way.

“Aye, is your perfume called Dew of Moonlight?” Zhang Tie suddenly asked Bai Suxian in a secret means.
