1787 Cloudriver Valley (1/2)
On the early afternoon of April 3rd, it was sunny. Zhang Tie and the elders and presidents of Dragon Emperor Immortal Palace arrived at Cloudriver Valley outside Dragon Emperor City from Forbidden City by airboat.
7 elders of Dragon Emperor Immortal Palace came to Cloudriver Valley with Zhang Tie, namely Luo Yunshang, Xia Yangming, Shi Zhongyu, Hou Moyuan, Wang Laisheng, Long Jiutian and Ying Gucheng together with the presidents of the five major departments of Dragon Emperor Immortal Palace, namely Guan Minjun the president of Earth Treasures Department, Tang Shenghou the president of Personnel affairs Department also known as Immortal Generals Department, Xue Zhongkai the president of Heavenly Craftsmanship Department, Ji Hontao the president of Military Department and Huo Xianlai the president of Supervision Department.
After the 4 elders resigned as the presidents of the four major departments of Dragon Emperor Immortal Palace, they nominated all the new presidents of the four major departments. Zhang Tie appointed these people as the new presidents of the four major departments. Among the four incumbent presidents of the four major departments, Zhang Tie was only a bit familiar with Guan Minjun as he had communicated with her for a few times. As for the others, he just met them for a few times and had some short chats with them. Therefore, he was not familiar with them. As for Zhang Tie, after becoming the new Dragon Emperor, the preoccupation was to enhance his battle strength. As long as he became a real powerhouse, he would be able to solve all the problems. Therefore, he didn't feel like caring about the affairs of Dragon Emperor Immortal Palace at all, not to mention showing carrots to those presidents of the four major departments.
The semi-seclusion of the elders and grand justices and the successful hand-over of the powers of the four presidents ensured the stability of Dragon Emperor Immortal Palace after Zhang Tie took the throne. Previously, Zhang Tie thought that he could realize a peaceful transition of Dragon Emperor Immortal Palace in this means by helping Dragon Emperor Immortal Palace tide over the toughest period. However, after discovering the existence and purpose of Dark Emperor Immortal Palace, Zhang Tie found that he was too naive.
Superficially, Dragon Emperor Immortal Palace didn't face any crisis. However, it was actually facing crises from Dark Emperor Immortal Palace. If there was some problem with the loyalty of the elders, there would be a problem with the people that they had recommended for sure. If it was true, it would not be solved by tactics.
Now that he couldn't solve the problem by tactics, he could only solve it by force. But it required some technology for him to use force on them...
...
The airboat landed on a vast patch of grassland outside Cloudriver Valley. Hong Yukun, some officers and the immortal generals of Dragon Teeth Army were already waiting for them on the lawn.
Zhang Tie got off the airboat first, followed by the 7 elders and the 4 presidents of the major departments.
”Our respects to you, Your Majesty...”
”Get up!” Zhang Tie took a look at Hong Yukun as he found that Hong Yukun was glowing with health, being utterly different than that distressed state a few days ago. Pointing at Hong Yukun, Zhang Tie started to introduce him to the influential figures behind him, ”This is Hong Yukun the former head of internal guards of Dragon Emperor Pavilion and the incumbent head of Cloudriver Valley. He's in charge of the entire Cloudriver Valley and the production of Dragon Emperor Medicament...”
This was the most brilliant moment that Hong Yukun had ever experienced. In Dragon Emperor Immortal Palace, immortal generals like him could be seen everywhere. As elders and presidents in the highest positions of Dragon Emperor Immortal Palace, they might have not even heard about him before. Even if they had heard of him, they could barely remember his name. Even though they could remember his name or were a bit impressed by him, they would never mind it. However, today, so many influential figures came to his territory to see his achievements and the production of Dragon Emperor Medicament. Therefore, he felt a great honor.

At this moment, Hong Yukun appreciated and admired Zhang Tie pretty much from his heart. He really had an impulse of sacrificing himself for Zhang Tie. Without Zhang Tie's promotion, he might still be living a poor and boring life in Dragon Emperor Pavilion. 2 days ago, Hong Yukun had felt his whole life trajectory was changing. Previously, Hong Yunkun thought he liked that tranquil lifestyle; however, now, he found that it was also nice for him to enjoy the feeling of being flattered and valued by people in such an idyllic life; especially those who valued and flattered him were all immortal generals like him.
After hearing Zhang Tie's introduction, Hong Yukun took in a deep breath as he bowed towards the elders and presidents, saying, ”My respects to you, elders and presidents!”
