Chapter 1725: Zhang Tie’s Business

Translator: WQL Editor: Aleem

Zhang Tie had been busy for half a year. The arrival of Wu Qiankun and Yuan Lang finally foreboded the auspicious day of Zhang Tie.

10 shadow demon knights in five change realms or higher were enough to help Zhang Tie promote to a heavenly knight. By then, he would make wholly new progress in all aspects again.

After promoting to a heavenly knight, Zhang Tie would be able to enter Mountain Ruins. He would have more freedom in moving forward or retreating. Additionally, Zhang Tie would be able to manipulate wind and air as a divine dominator. Zhang Tie didn’t know what he could do in details; however, he was sure that he would be more confident to face a sage-level knight after promoting to a heavenly knight.

In Taixia Country, heavenly knight was the beginning of becoming a real powerhouse. In Motian Realm, wind immortal generals were also the pillar of immortal generals.

This promotion would be the most important and easiest for Zhang Tie.

When in Taixia Country, Zhang Tie could never imagine that someone would present demon powerhouses to him one day for refinement. However, in Motian Realm, it was real.

After promoting to a heavenly knight, the 5 heavenly demon knights with over 5 change realm would help him promote to 2 change realm of the heavenly knight.

However, it was just a start. After that, he could make the same trade with Emperor NvWa Palace, other immortal palaces, independent supreme immortal generals or fire immortal generals. He would have them provide wind demon immortal generals to him constantly. In this way, Zhang Tie could easily light his wind chakra and fire chakra and promote to a semi-sage knight within a couple of years.

As long as Zhang Tie thought about it, he would be thrilled.

Therefore, since Wu Qiankun and Yuan Lang left there, Zhang Tie had been in a good mood.

Auspicious things arrived one after another.

After Wu Qiankun left Dragon Emperor Pavilion for three days, Emperor NvWa Palace returned the two immortal wind palaces to Dragon Emperor Immortal Palace.

The event raised the morale of immortal generals of Dragon Emperor Immortal Palace pretty much. From then on, the immortal generals of Dragon Emperor Immortal Palace in Dragon Emperor City would be able to improve their battle skills in heavenly balls again. By the way, Zhang Tie, the new Dragon Emperor, won much greater popularity among the people.

No matter what, the two immortal wind palaces came back after Zhang Tie took the throne of Dragon Emperor. Therefore, everyone across Dragon Emperor Immortal Palace attributed it to Zhang Tie, including the commoners in Dragon Emperor City.

As for returning 2 million earth element crystals to Emperor NvWa Palace, Zhang Tie did it too. He directly sent an order to Earth-Treasures Department and made them transfer 2 million earth element crystals to Emperor NvWa Palace. As a result, Guan Minjun, the new president of Earth-Treasures Department looked worse when she met Zhang Tie.

On the day when the two immortal wind palaces returned to Dragon Emperor City, Zhang Tie even had people hold a takeover ceremony in the two immortal wind palaces. Zhang Tie attended this ceremony together with tens of thousands of people including the branch heads of Dragon Emperor Immortal Palace, the presidents of the 5 departments, the immortal generals of Dragon’s Teeth Army, some people from Emperor NvWa Palace, the immortal soldiers of the camps in Dragon Emperor City and some representatives of followers.

At the ceremony, Zhang Tie told some succinct yet meaningful words to everyone at present.

“From today on, we will get back everything that Dragon Emperor Immortal Palace once lost!”

After a short silence, ear-splitting cheers sounded among the people.

“Long Live Dragon Emperor!”

“Long Live Dragon Emperor!”

“Long Live Dragon Emperor!”

Influenced by Liu brothers, more and more people started to cheer up starting from those common soldiers at present.

Hearing their cheers and watching their jubilant faces and their hopeful eyes, Zhang Tie asked Guan Minjun on his side secretly, “President Guan, which one is more important, the 2 million earth element crystals or the hope and happiness in their eyes?”

Watching the scene, Guan Minjun was silent. However, Zhang Tie replied it for Guan Minjun, “As for me, the latter one counts the most. If one day, these people’s eyes lose brilliance, it means that Dragon Emperor Immortal Palace would perish for real no matter how many element crystals we have. By then, even if we have 2 million earth element crystals more, we could only struggle a couple of more years before being ruined. It would be meaningless...”

“Your Majesty, you could say whatever you want at this moment. It’s indeed a happy thing for us to get back immortal wind palaces. However, Your Majesty, you have to know that Earth-Treasures Department only has 25.23 million element crystals in stockpile after we presented Emperor NvWa Palace 2 million earth element crystals...” Guan Minjun said calmly after taking a look at Zhang Tie.

“Don’t worry, President Guan. I will start a business in 2 years. Dragon Emperor Immortal Palace will have element crystals constantly. At least, I could keep its balance...” Zhang Tie revealed a secret to Guan Minjun as he felt good.

Guan Minjun was shocked by Zhang Tie’s words. If Zhang Tie could really make it, Dragon Emperor Immortal Palace had to gain at least 1.2 million element crystals annually. Attention! The business that Zhang Tie referred to was not about exploitation in Mountain Ruins.

“Ah, it’s impossible! Dragon Emperor Immortal Palace doesn’t have specialties compared to other immortal palaces. Even if we have specialties, it’s hard to keep the balance of element crystals by trading them with other immortal palaces.” Guan Minjun said with a slight frown as she didn’t believe in Zhang Tie’s promise at all.

“How about having a bet with me, President Guan!”

“Bet what?”

“If I could make it, President Guan, please don’t always frown in front of me. You should show me more smiles. If a beauty always frowns, she would easily become old!”

Guan Minjun threw a bashful glare at Zhang Tie as she took in a deep breath, saying, “What if you couldn’t make it, Your Majesty?”

“If I couldn’t make it, I will not force Earth-Treasures Department to make extra payment out of the budget. Additionally, I will reduce the population of Dragon’s Teeth Army to 1,500 people.”

“Well, that’s a deal!”

In the uproar, Zhang Tie and Guan Minjun had made a bet secretly.

...

The heavenly balls in the two immortal wind palaces were as same as the heavenly ball that Zhang Tie saw in Taiyi Fantasy Sect. Being set in a hall of each immortal wind palace, the heavenly balls could imitate the images of supreme immortal generals and earth immortal generals for the other immortal generals or directly allow immortal generals to fight each other inside. Its only regret was that these heavenly balls could only be accessible to supreme immortal generals and earth immortal generals just like that in Taiyi Fantasy Sect. Water immortal generals like Zhang Tie could not enter them to improve his battle skills.

“There’s a more advanced heavenly ball in Emperor NvWa Palace, which could allow water immortal generals and wind immortal generals to fight and improve their battle skills inside. Your Majesty, you could have a try in Emperor NvWa Palace when you’re free...” Wu Qiankun found an opportunity to sneak to Zhang Tie’s side and talked to him with a smile when Zhang Tie felt a bit regretful.

As the peacemaker, Wu Qiankun resolved the conflict between Dragon Emperor Immortal Palace and Star Emperor Immortal Palace without weakening each party’s power. Zhang Tie’s request even weakened demons’ power, which was more pleasant to Emperor NvWa Palace. However, given Wu Qiankun’s look, Zhang Tie estimated that he might have been praised or rewarded by Emperor NvWa.

“Aw, really? I wonder where did Emperor NvWa’s heavenly ball come from?” Zhang Tie asked.

“It also comes from Mountain Ruins!” Wu Qiankun said with a smile, “It’s said that the most advanced heavenly ball is in the hand of demons, which could be available to supreme immortal generals. They also gained it from Mountain Ruins. As for humans, the most advanced heavenly ball is in Emperor NvWa Palace...”

“How do Star Emperor Immortal Palace prepare for the trade?” Zhang Tie asked Wu Qiankun secretly.

“Yuan Lang has already passed the message to Star Emperor Immortal Palace three days ago. Star Emperor Immortal Palace has already delivered the order to wind immortal generals within the immortal palace. It’s said that a powerhouse of Star Emperor Immortal Palace had already caught a water demon immortal general alive after being severely hurt. After a few days, the first batch of goods would arrive...” Wu Qiankun replied secretly.

‘So fast!’

Zhang Tie felt calm at once as he slightly threw a glance at the general manager of Emperor NvWa Palace, saying, “It’s said that Emperor NvWa Palace has businesses and cooperations with all the human immortal palaces. I’ve got one more business to cooperate with Emperor NvWa Palace!”

“Oh, go ahead please, Your Majesty!” Wu Qiankun became interested in it at a stroke.

“When Emperor NvWa Palace sends the first batch of goods to me, I will show you something. I’m sure General Manager Wu would be interested in it...” Zhang Tie tantalized him...
