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.”
