1468 In the Old Mansion of Zhang Family (1/2)

”Grandpa didn't look bad when I saw him last time. Additionally, we've got enough secret medicines at home. How could he go worse in 2 years?” Zhang Tie asked Zhang Lin.

Zhang Lin became hesitant for a second before answering in a low tone, ”Papa's health abruptly deteriorated in the last four months...”

”Last four months?” Zhang Tie slightly frowned.

”Yes. After being told that you were struck by the thunder of nirvana of a heavenly demon knight at the bank of Weishui River and losing your message during the period when you received medical treatment in Xuanyuan Hill, the old man's health turned worse rapidly. During that period, he would ask about you many times a day. If not blocked by family members, he would have gone to Xuanyuan Hill for you. Afraid of being cheated, he even had people collect newspapers across the country every day. He wanted to find some news about you. Sometimes, he even insisted on listening to others' discussions in teahouse despite our persuasion. We've fetched many doctors for him. They all said that the old man was poor physically and spiritually due to long-term concerns. Previously, his health was not good. After his heart failure, nothing could do any help to him anymore...”

Zhang Tie instantly felt like crying with red eyes. He had not imagined that his grandpa's disease was related to him.

Blood is thicker than water!

Zhang Tie bore his sorrow as he asked, ”Where are my parents?”

”They've already been to Golden Light City 3 days ago. Zhang Yang is also over there. Almost all family members have arrived. The old man just wants to see you and Zhang Su in the end...”

Zhang Tie didn't ask Zhang Lin anymore. He only wanted to go to Golden Light City as soon as possible.

Thankfully, the imperial airboat gifted by the crown prince could move about 20 percent faster than common airboats. Therefore, it was just a 3-hour ride from Fire-Dragon Bounty Territory to Golden Light City. Before sunset, Zhang Tie's airboat finally arrived at GoldenLight City.

The afterglow of the setting sun was cast over the entire Golden Light City, which, although being nothing strange, looked not auspicious in Zhang Tie's eyes.

Zhang family's old mansion in GoldenLight City covered a wide range of area; however, it could not hold a common airboat, not to mention the imperial airboat which was about 1,000 m in length. Therefore, the airboat could only be parked outside the city according to the regulation. However, Zhang Tie directly had it suspend over 100 m high above Zhang family's old mansion before jumping off it.

After jumping off the airboat, Zhang Tie activated the bloodline of Liezi Driving the Wind that he awakened at the bank of Weishui River using a bit wisp of spiritual energy. When he was over 10 m away from the ground, he suddenly turned as light as a feather. At the same time, he stagnated in the air before falling on the lawn steadily.

After seeing Zhang Tie's airboat, many family members in the old mansion exited the courtyard as they raised their heads and watched Zhang Tie jumping off the airboat.

Together with Zhang Tie was Zhang Su. Zhang Su's landing manner was more appropriate. After jumping off the airboat, he opened his parachute when he was near the ground. After slowing down suddenly, he rapidly closed his parachute from over 10 m high in the air before landing steadily on the lawn.

After Zhang Tie and Zhang Su jumped off, Zhang Tie's eldest uncle was let off by a piece of lifting equipment on the airboat.

The moment Zhang Tie landed, he had opened his mouth, ”Where's my grandpa? Hurry up, show me the way...”

The onlookers included relatives on the side of Zhang Haitian, servants and guards. Some of them had already seen Zhang Tie. Even those who didn't see him had already known who he was at the sight of the imperial airboat above them——Besides Qianji Immortal Zhang Tie, nobody else across Northeast Military Region was qualified to take such an imperial airboat.

In fact, the airboat had already aroused a shock across Golden Light City. Besides those on the side of Zhang Haitian, uproars and noises had been drifted from outside the old mansion.
