1311 The Masters and the Apprentices (2/2)
”Ahh, Qianji Hermit is back...”
”This person is Qianji Hermit!”
”Of course, Zhang Tie is the youngest earth knight in Taixia Country!”
”But I didn't see him in the raid!”
”Qianji Hermit has already served as a scout for over 4 months...”
”Ahh, scout!” Someone repeated with an exclamation.
”Although Qianji Hermit didn't attend the raid, he must be executing another mission!”
”But I've not seen his name on the List of Earth Knights in Xuanyuan Fortress...”
”Perhaps he didn't report his military exploits. You know that earth knights who serve as scouts are never afraid of death...”
Those who knew Zhang Tie couldn't help but become slightly dumbfounded as they whispered something to those who didn't know Zhang Tie on their sides. Some of them even nodded towards Zhang Tie politely. Zhang Tie also nodded towards them with a smile. Soon after Zhang Tie came back, he had already heard the news of List of Earth Knights in Xuanyuan Fortress 2 times. However, Zhang Tie didn't care about it. Compared to the deed of that b*stard of Taiyi Fantasy Sect, the others' responses made Zhang Tie feel much warmer.
The knight at the entrance of Blackwater Base was also from Northeast Military Region. After taking Zhang Tie's Xuanyuan Order respectfully and checking it, he gave the Xuanyuan Order back to Zhang Tie with full of admiration. He even said, ”Welcome in, thanks for your hard work, Hermit!”
”Pleasure...” Zhang Tie nodded with a smile as he took his Xuanyuan Order and entered Blackwater Base.
Soon after entering Blackwater Base, Zhang Tie had felt dizzy as two female knights were exiting Blackwater Base.
Coincidentally, one of the two female knights was Guo Hongyi; the other one looked a bit younger than Guo Hongyi. In a white skirt, she wore a pagoda-shaped bun. She looked very delicate while her beautiful eyes inclined towards her temples, making her pretty aggressive and different. When they walked towards Zhang Tie, all the surrounding male knights hurriedly gave way to them.
What made Zhang Tie feel strange was that Guo Hongyi respected that woman in the white skirt very much as Guo Hongyi always stayed half a step behind her.
Guo Hongyi and that woman saw Zhang Tie too. At the sight of Zhang Tie, Guo Hongyi's eyes shone at once which contained a slight love that could only be sensed by Zhang Tie. However, when that strange woman saw Zhang Tie, Zhang Tie immediately felt that his hair all over was frozen. As a result, Zhang Tie quivered all over once as he swore inside, 'Damn, what an abnormal eye light! It's like how an old virgin who was responsible for punishing criminals and had not seen light for hundreds of years interrogated a liar and rapist who was bound by ropes in a religious judicial office...'
'F*ck, she's a shadow knight.' Zhang Tie's heart raced at once!
”What a coincidence...” Zhang Tie greeted Guo Hongyi after dodging away from the eye light of the shadow female knight in the white skirt.
”Hmm!” Guo Hongyi replied as she lowered her eye light and nodded towards Zhang Tie, being neither passionate nor indifferent.
”Who's this man?” The female knight in the white skirt turned around and asked Guo Hongyi in front of Zhang Tie.
”Master, he's Zhang Tie!” Guo Hongyi answered.
”He's Zhang Tie?” The female knight in the white skirt became slightly stunned. This time, she nodded to Zhang Tie while her eyes turned a bit warmer; however, her eye light was still cold. ”Now that he could write the poem ”The beloved ones”, he's a bit conscientious. However, as he's married to a lot of women, he must be a lecherous and eloquent man. Stay away from him from now on. None of the men are good, not to mention male knights!”
Zhang Tie became stunned. Although he had seen a lot of women, it was his first time to be commented in this way. 'Damn, have I offended her or what? How could such a woman be the master of Guo Hongyi?'
”Hmm!” Guo Hongyi replied briefly while lowering her head. The woman in the white skirt threw a glance at Zhang Tie once again. Closely after that, she passed by Zhang Tie as if she had not seen Zhang Tie.
Zhang Tie wanted to say something; however, he couldn't. Finally, Zhang Tie could only scratch his head helplessly as he saw them off...
...
After Zhang Tie returned to Blackwater Base, he went to report on his mission in the control center.
Zhang Tie didn't see Ye Qingcheng; however, the knight who received him told him that he was on a 2 weeks' leave, during which period, he could make a free arrangement. However, if he was called by Blackwater Base, he had to arrive at the base in half an hour...
After hearing that Ye Qingcheng was on a 2 weeks' leave, Zhang Tie understood that the demons' attack must have been relieved recently...
