In the following combats, Zhang Tie didn’t completely release his fury. Such combats were merely one-sided massacres. They were just necessary intimidations, which were not cool at all.

Among those who were qualified to be his opponents reluctantly, Yun Tianhao the grandmaster of Yun Clan was the most powerful one. However, Yun Tianhao was still broken into pieces by his Universal Immortal Fist only in a short period of time before Zhang Tie released his realm.

In the headquarters of Five Elements Immortal Palace, Zhang Tie didn’t meet Tong Xuangui the immortal king of Five Elements Immortal Palace. Those immortal generals wanted to catch Zhang Tie or kill him in a domineering way. As was imagined, 1 deputy head of Five Elements Immortal Palace, 3 grand justices and over 50 immortal generals turned into ashes.

But they were trivial. Zhang Tie actually wanted to kill Tong Xuangui the immortal king of Five Elements Immortal Palace. Only Tong Xuangui’s head could stop others from doing any harm to Dragon Emperor Immortal Palace for long.

Wherever Zhang Tie made a massacre, he would leave a wisp of qi of Dragon Emperor Immortal Fist. Just like scratches that a fierce beast left on trees, it implied that Zhang Tie was back.

Black Blood Alliance, Five Elements Immortal Palace and Yun Clan were all extremely presumptuous foreign forces in Dragon Emperor Big Domain in recent years. However, only after coming back for 2 hours, Zhang Tie had exterminated Black Blood Alliance and Yun Clan and completely chopped off the claws that Five Elements Immortal Palace reached into Dragon Emperor Big Domain.

Zhang Tie’s next target was Star Emperor Immortal Palace.

Among those foreign forces that invaded Dragon Emperor Big Domain, Star Emperor Immortal Palace was the most powerful force with the deepest background. However, Star Emperor Immortal Palace only encroached 11 cities of Dragon Emperor Immortal Palace, which was the least among those foreign forces. It was not because that Star Emperor was kind, but that Star Emperor had too many concerns.

There were very few examples in the history of Motian Realm that human emperor-level immortal palaces annexed or attacked each other. Compared to the other foreign forces, Star Emperor Immortal Palace had to bear greater stress by encroaching Dragon Emperor Big Domain. Additionally, over these years, Star Emperor Immortal Palace also had a hard time; therefore, Star Emperor Immortal Palace didn’t have too much time to encroach the territory of Dragon Emperor Immortal Palace.

Although Star Emperor Immortal Palace only encroached 11 cities of Dragon Emperor Immortal Palace, it didn’t mean that Star Emperor Immortal Palace didn’t want to encroach more. The 11 cities were just a nail or base that Star Emperor Immortal Palace set in Dragon Emperor Big Domain for further expansion. When Dragon Emperor Immortal Palace was collapsed or the overall situation facing Motian Realm changed greatly, the factors that limited Star Emperor Immortal Palace’s expansion would disappear. By then, given the power of Star Emperor Immortal Palace, it could expand its territory by 10-100 times at any time. It could even grab the territories that the other forces encroached.

Zhang Tie was crystal clear about Star Emperor’s plan. Zhang Tie had known that Star Emperor was a tricky, cunny and fierce opponent since Star Emperor left a spiritual mark in the mind of a demon knight that he paid Zhang Tie.

The headquarters of Star Emperor Immortal Palace in Dragon Emperor Big Domain was in Northdragon City, which was a big city in the north of Dragon Emperor Immortal Palace. Its scale could even match that of Dragonsea City.

When Zhang Tie arrived at Northdragon City, it was no less than 1 pm. The sun was hanging high above his head. From the sky, Northdragon City looked very peaceful and bustling everywhere. In the air zone within hundreds of miles in the periphery of Northdragon City, there was not even a patrolling immortal soldier or immortal general.

At the sight of this scene, Zhang Tie mumbled inside. ‘It’s almost common sense to assign patrolling immortal soldiers or immortal generals outside a big city like setting sentries outside military camps. Even though Dragon Emperor Immortal Palace was declining, they still needed such a necessary setting. However, after being occupied by Star Emperor Immortal Palace, the city gate of Northdragon City is widely opened without any patrolling forces. I wonder whether Star Emperor Immortal Palace is overconfident or is playing a trick.’

However, at this moment, Zhang Tie was not afraid of any trick anymore; he instantly flew towards the Star Emperor Immortal Palace in the city.

The Star Emperor Immortal Palace in Northdragon City was new and very magnificent. The over 200-m high building was the highest one in the city. The former branch of Dragon Emperor Immortal Palace in the city had long been demolished. The Star Emperor Immortal Palace was just built in the location of the former branch of Dragon Emperor Immortal Palace.

Only with a few flashes, Zhang Tie had already appeared outside the entrance of the highest floor of Star Emperor Immortal Palace.

It was empty inside Star Emperor Immortal Palace. Only one person was standing on the square outside the gate of the immortal palace. When he saw Zhang Tie, he let out a sigh and bowed towards Zhang Tie calmly with great reverence and greeted, “I’ve not imagined that Your Majesty has really come back. My respects to you, Your Majesty!”

It was Yuan Lang who had met Zhang Tie for a few times as Zhang Tie’s acquaintance in Star Emperor Immortal Palace.

After 7 years, Yuan Lang was as handsome and spirited as before. He didn’t even change a bit.

After taking a look around the immortal palace, Zhang Tie saw nobody else. He then watched Yuan Lan and asked coldly with a slight frown, “Where are the others of Star Emperor Immortal Palace?”

“Half an hour before, I’ve already ordered all the 17 immortal generals and over 3,000 immortal soldiers, deacons, maids and handymen to leave in batches by airboat. Your Majesty, please show your mercy on them. If you want to vent your anger, please take away my head!” Yuan Lang said calmly.

“You knew that I was going back?”

“A few hours ago, I’ve already received the news the moment Your Majesty left Mountain Ruins. It’s said that an unknown powerhouse was breaking through Ice and Fire Heavenly Wind Layer and heading for Dragon Emperor Big Domain as fast as a lightning bolt. Only in a few hours, Black Blood Alliance, Five Elements Immortal Palace, Yun Clan had been exterminated. Your Majesty, after killing Two Blackblood Sages and Yun Tianhao the grandmaster of Yun Clan, you even left your strong qi of Dragon Emperor Fist. Star Emperor Immortal Palace has so many ears and eyes. If I still didn’t know that Your Majesty was coming back, I would be too stupid!” After saying that, Yun Lang took a glance at Zhang Tie again as he said sincerely, “I’ve not imagined that Your Majesty has already gotten rid of Infinite Immortal Prison in only a few years. God blesses the good man. Congratulations…”

“Do you really think that I won’t kill you?” Zhang Tie remained calm; however, he knitted his brows at once.

In a split second, Yuan Lang felt that an invisible sharp sword was put on his neck. A terrifying and powerful sword qi was close to his fine hair and was going to stab at him. At the same time, his back felt pretty cold as if his head was going to fall as long as Zhang Tie moved his eyes.

Yun Lang only sensed the same terrifying qi from Star Emperor.

In the distant eyes of Zhang Tie, Yuan Lang’s heart palpitated as his back oozed sweat heavily. Even so, he still maintained a calm look and voice, “In the eyes of Your Majesty, of course, I’m nothing different than those bandits who broke in Your Majesty’s home. Your Majesty, it’s reasonable for you to kill me here. I won’t complain about that even a bit. When His Majesty Star Emperor wanted to attack Dragon Emperor Big Domain, I disagreed with him. However, His Majesty Star Emperor was much more ambitious and talented than me. Additionally, it was said that Your Majesty had already died in Infinite Immortal Prison at that time. Therefore, Dragon Emperor Big Domain didn’t have its owner at that time and would be shared by all the other forces. Of course, Star Emperor Immortal Palace wouldn’t lag behind. Now that His Majesty Star Emperor had sent an order, of course, I could only take his order and become the butler of Star Emperor Immortal Palace in Dragon Emperor Big Domain. I was loyal to my owner; therefore, I will have no grudges even if I was killed. Over these years, I was only satisfied by three aspects: first, there was no heavy tax; second, none of the innocent people were killed; third, my subordinates were all well restricted. Over the past 7 years, all the people in the 11 cities that Star Emperor Immortal Palace encroached in Dragon Emperor Big Domain were living and working in peace as same as before. I’m especially here to hand them back to Your Majesty…”

Zhang Tie gazed at Yuan Lang for half a minute. Not until he caused Yuan Lang’s back to turn wet did he move his eyes away from Yuan Lang’s neck and say calmly, “It’s Star Emperor’s luck to have you as his subordinate!”

“Star Emperor Immortal Palace has too many talents. I’m just a trivial person in Star Emperor Immortal Palace!”

“Where’s Star Emperor? It’s meaningless to kill you. I will settle accounts with him!”

Yuan Lang gnashed his teeth as he replied, “Nine Heavens Big Domain is facing a critical situation. His Majesty Star Emperor is confronting with the army of demons with his army in Deities Plain in Nine Heavens Big Domain…”

Soon after he finished the word “Domain”, Yuan Lang had seen a golden light flying towards Nine Heavens Big Domain with a pair of miraculous golden feather wings with the momentum of wind and thunder at an indescribable speed, leaving a rainbow…

“What’s this secret method? The feather wings… they are… they are…”

After staring at the sky while changing his face for a while, Yuan Lan finally heaved a deep sigh. Then, he turned around and took a look at the empty immortal palace. Shaking his head, he revealed a bitter smile and flew off Northdragon City in an instant…
