Chapter 1470: Big Terror

Translator: WQL Editor: Aleem

Only after a short while, the cries in Benigncloud Building had spread over the entire old mansion.

Zhang family members were crying in and out the Benigncloud Building, followed by the servants in the old mansion outside the building. The servants of Zhang family had to push out some drops of tears more or less whether out of sincerity or not.

At this moment, the masters of the old mansion might not remember who was crying; however, anyone, if dared smile at this moment, must have trouble later on. As long as one cried, all the others could only follow him or her. In fact, Zhang Haitian treated the servants mercifully. Besides rewarding them a bonus in festivals, the old man would always help them whenever their family got trouble. Many senile servants in the old mansion appreciated Zhang Haitian. Therefore, after the old man passed away, the greater part of the servants cried sincerely.

The dark had just fallen. With the cries from Benigncloud Building, the butler had servants replace those red lanterns across the mansion with white lanterns.

After the old man was heavily sick and returned to Golden Light City, many people in the city had been paying heed to Zhang Mansion; especially after Zhang Tie arrived at Golden Light City by imperial airboat today which had shocked the entire city. After knowing that Zhang Tie had arrived, the moment the red lanterns were replaced with white lanterns outside the gate of the old mansion many people in the street and boites had run away.

White lanterns were equal to obituary.

Those who were staying outside the old mansion were all assigned by influential clans and sects in the downtown. At the sight of the white lanterns, they instantly knew that Zhang Haitian had passed away as they hurriedly left to notice their clans and sects.

Without Zhang Tie, the death of Zhang Haitian was just a minor affair in Golden Light City. Because of Zhang Tie, the death of Zhang Tie’s grandpa became a major event.

In the mournful atmosphere across the old mansion, when all the servants were busy doing their own business, a guard silently came to the lawn where Zhang Tie had just landed. Squatting there, he started to fumble something in the lawn.

Just now, this guard was one of the onlookers. He saw how Zhang Tie and Zhang Su jumped off the airboat just now and was clear about the landing point of Zhang Tie.

He soon got two footprints on the lawn.

Being covered by grasses, the two footprints couldn’t be easily discovered. However, they were about 3 cm in depth due to wallop.

In the eyes of commoners, the two footprints were nothing special; however, someone could get much information from them. Because these footprints were left by Zhang Tie, a shadow knight and a divine dominator. If a knight could maintain the manipulative ability of his chakra and battle qi, he could never leave such footprints on the lawn.

Even Zhang Tie couldn’t imagine that the simple movement of jumping off the airboat could be studied by someone because he only wanted to see the old man at that time. Even lions would doze, not to mention humans.

“Zhang Yue, what are you doing? We will have visitors soon, go make a tour inspection right now...”

A butler hurriedly blamed the guard as he hurriedly negotiated a wall behind the garden. As everybody else in the mansion had started to work, of course, this butler felt a bit angry about this guy’s indolent deed.

“Fine, butler Niu, my trousers are loose. I want to fix them. I will be there right away...” The guard said humbly as he moved his hands from below the grasses onto his legs as if he was really fixing his leggings. After that, he threw a glance at the two footprints in the grasses. With a flash of exotic light in his eyes, he left the garden...

It was just a little episode in the mansion. Nobody could notice that.

...

Although Zhang family members were mounful, they had long prepared for the funeral ceremony according to rules. After negotiating with each other for a short while, some uncles in the old mansion had arranged everything well as everybody had started to work.

Personnel had been arranged for the layout of the mourning hall, noticing relatives and friends, dressing up the old man, preparing for greeting guests who came here for condolence respectively.

In this case, Zhang Tie became free. He just stayed in Benigncloud Building and quietly watched the others preparing the funeral ceremony for the old man.

Even though being not a strike, the death of the old man was a wallop for Zhang Tie. Previously, Zhang Tie had not experienced similar things at all. He had to face such a question again and again sooner or later.

The death of the old man reminded Zhang Tie of his parents. As his parents were not real cultivations. They were far from the realm of knights. One day, they would also pass away. What would Zhang Tie do then?

Zhang Tie didn’t look good when it occured to his mind.

Watching his parents among his uncles and aunts and their grizzled hair, Zhang Tie felt his heart pounding a second.

There was a big terror in a life-and-death situation. Zhang Tie felt unacceptable when he thought such a big terror would decline to his parents one day.

‘Isn’t there a solution? I wonder whether people above sage-level knights could get rid of this great terror!’

‘I wonder whether the existence who created Castle of Black Iron could get rid of such a great terror.’

The realm above sage-level knights was still far away from Zhang Tie. At present, Zhang Tie couldn’t even solve the aftermath left by the thunder of nirvana. However, the death of the old man suddenly aroused Zhang Tie’s aspiration about that mysterious realm.

‘I swear to reach that realm for the sake of my parents!’

Zhang Tie clenched his fist as he made a decision inside...

“Elder Muyuan and the mayor have arrived...” A butler noticed as Elder Muyuan and the mayor of Golden Light City who shared the same branch of a bloodline with Elder Muyuan entered the old mansion with a sad look in white clothings. Zhang seniors hurriedly exited the room to greet them...

Before the mourning hall was arranged well, the closest relatives in Golden Light City had arrived...
