1486 Whose Trap (1/2)

The news from the subordinate of Zhang Taixuan was that he didn't find any immortal item from Zhang Tie. All of Zhang Tie's belongings were here.

Zhang Taixuan believed in the news as all the dare-to-die fighters who executed this action were loyal to him while being supervised and constrained from each other. Additionally, they were under the control of his secret method and could die for him without demur. Therefore, those dare-to-die fighters would never deceive him. That was why Zhang Taixuan assigned them to execute the most dangerous task.

These days, Zhang Taixuan always thought that Zhang Tie had not taken that immortal item with him; however, Zhang Taixuan gradually wavered this mind as he felt that he never have the immortal item leave his sight if he were Zhang Tie; especially when he got the news that Zhang Tie wanted to talk about conditions with him, Zhang Taixuan became more confident about his deduction.

'Zhang Tie is too calm and confident. Why he's so confident in such a dilemma and think that he's qualified to talk about conditions with me?'

'He probably has the immortal item with him. That immortal item is his trump card. He knows that I would not hurt him before getting the immortal item. Therefore, he's so confident.'

After looking at those items on the table in the backroom, Zhang Taixuan waved his arm, hoarding all of them into his portable space-teleportation equipment. After that, with hands on his back, he started to gently stroke his colorful fingerstall as he paced back and forth in the room while faintly frowning.

Zhang Taixuan was very scared of Zhang Tie. In this case, he didn't plan to meet Zhang Tie at all. However, that mystical immortal item made him hesitant.

Immortal items carried unimaginable, exotic abilities. 'It probably still was with Zhang Tie; however, the others couldn't discover it except for this rarity of mine. However, people below knight level couldn't drive this rarity at all; therefore, it's unavailable to those dare-to-die fighters. However, I don't have fully reliable subordinate knights. Those elders of Huaiyuan Palace are excluded at first. As for those who could drive it, I'm not sure whether they would disappear after getting that immortal item from Zhang Tie...'

'Which knight could be immune to the allure of an immortal item?'

'Would I go to see Zhang Tie or not?'

Zhang Taixuan became hesitant as he considered this question in the room for a while. After that, he received a message from his remote-sensing finger ring with a flash of gloomy eyesight. After being hesitant for a second, he let out a deep sigh as he walked out of the backroom and came to the outside of the shrine palace.

At this moment, after Mr. Zhao's airboat left came another airboat in the sky above Tiger Embracing Mountain. Whereas, since so many airboats had arrived and left Tiger Embracing Mountain these days, they didn't feel anything strange about it.

When Zhang Taixuan came out, three human shadows flew off that airboat. Before one of them arrived, his loud voice had rumbled the entire mountain, ”Younger Brother Taixuan, after Huaiyuan Palace encountered such a major event and urgently need help, why not notice this elder brother?”

”Hahaha, Elder Brother Huang, you've come from afar, I'm so sorry for that!” Zhang Taixuan said as he cupped his hands towards the figure in the air.

With the flash of their shadows, the three people had landed on the ground steadily.

Among the three people, Elder Brother Huang was tall and strong with snow-like silver hair swaying in the air, making him a lion or a hedgehog. His face was as red as that of wine. Given his look, he should be bad-tempered. This man carried a powerful qi of shadow knight. Although he looked generous, when he landed and watched Zhang Taixuan, a weird, harsh light flashed across his face.

Catching that faintly harsh eyesight of Elder Brother Huang, Zhang Taixuan's smile became stiff for a second as he asked, ”Elder Brother Huang, they're...”

”Hahaha...” Elder Brother Huang burst out into laughter again immediately as he answered, ”They're both my friends. They're enthusiastic and heroic. After hearing about the event of Immortal Qianji and that I'm your friend, they urged to go to Youzhou Province with me. They want to give you a favor. Younger brother, won't you welcome us? If you don't, this elder brother will leave right now...”

After hearing the introduction of Elder Brother Huang, the other two knights forced a slight smile towards Zhang Taixuan. The two knights were both earth knights with a solemn and cold look. They were far from being enthusiastic and heroic as was extolled by Elder Brother Huang.

”Haha, Elder brother, no joke. Please, let's talk inside!” Zhang Taixuan made a hand gesture to invite them in.

”Fine, let's talk about it inside!”

Zhang Taixuan had a deacon forbid outsiders to disturb them. The moment the four people entered the parlor behind the shrine palace, Elder Brother Huang's smile had disappeared as he turned solemn at once.
