“Erm...shall I leave some guards for you?”

“No need. I will just stay in Golden Light City and bid farewell to some senior sister apprentices tonight and go back to Fire-Dragon Bounty Territory tomorrow!”

“Take care of yourself!”

“Don’t worry about me. Who would dare find me trouble? These days, our parents are a bit tired. So are you, elder brother. After returning to Jinwu City, our parents should have a good rest or travel outside!”

“Hmm, I will make the arrangement!”

At dusk, after ending the trivial things on the old mansion, Zhang Yang returned to Jinwu City with his parents.

After staying in Golden Light City for 7 days, Zhang Tie and Zhang Yang were fine; however, their parents had felt a bit fatigued due to their age. Plus the wallop of the death of the old man, their parents looked gloomy. Therefore, they should have a good rest at home.

Zhang Tie saw them off until they boarded on the airboat. Before they boarded on the airboat, Zhang Tie talked with Zhang Yang.

Zhang Yang knew Zhang Tie well. Previously, Zhang Yang was a bit worried about Zhang Tie’s safety. However, after being told that Zhang Tie was bidding a farewell to his senior sister apprentices in Golden Light City, he relaxed his vigilance and only said a few words to Zhang Tie.

Yan Feiqing and Guo Hongyi had left Golden Light City for Three Spring Prefecture a few days ago. An uncle of Bai Suxian stayed in Golden Light City for 2 days on behalf of Lord Guangnan’s Mansion politely and considerately, who left here this morning. Zhang Tie had Bai Suxian bid a farewell to him. After that, Bai Suxian directly returned to Iron-Dragon Sect. Mountain Lifting Hermit, Lu Zhongming and Lin Huanxi offered condolence two days ago and had escorted the members of Iron Heart Palace back to Fire-Dragon Bounty Territory yesterday. Therefore, Zhang Tie became free.

When the airboat took off, the sun had almost set in the west. In the afterglow, Zhang Tie saw his elder brother’s airboat flying towards Jinwu City. After that, he left the airport outside the city and had the driver leave for the Wild Lake Building.

The airport was in the north of Golden Light City while the Wild Lake Building was in the south. It would take him almost 1 hour from the airport to the Wild Lake Building by car after circling around half of the Golden Light City.

When he arrived there, night had fallen. Watching it gradually turn darker from inside the car, Zhang Tie slowly became relaxed as he forgot about all the sophisticated thoughts haunting his mind these days.

In the south of Golden Light City, there were so many green mountains, making it pretty marvelous. Many major clans in Golden Light City had luxurious manors and villas with courtyards near mountains and rivers outside the city in the south. Wild Lake Building was rows of wooden complex, the highest one among which were 3-storeyed. It was a hotel right on the lakeside at the foot of a mountain. The entire complex was girdled by pines, dense reeds and wetland. What a landscape of mountains and rivers!

Many waterfowls were living in the reeds and wetland. The lake was connected to a big river within Youzhou Province in the distance. The big river linked all the prefectures in Youzhou Province in the west and directly entered the ocean in the east. From time and then, Zhang Tie could see looming ferries in the far, making it pretty artistic.

After getting off the car, Zhang Tie looked around as he nodded inside.

Ma Aiyun, Gu Caidie and Yuan Ziyi were delicate women previously in Hidden Dragon Island. After so many years, they must have not changed their taste given the hotel they chose. Zhang Tie felt it was a proper place for a party.

The Wild Lake Building was not large and was very tranquil. Besides the three women, some other guests were living here. Although it was already night, only half of more than 10 attics and cabins were bright. The moment Zhang Tie entered the gate of the complex, a male waiter had greeted him, “Welcome sir, are you going for supper or accommodation here?”

“I’m here for three girls!”

“Oh!” That waiter suddenly realized whom did Zhang Tie refer to as he threw an ambiguous and admiring glance at Zhang Tie before replying, “The three guests are living in Cloudmissing Building over there. You could see it by going there from here. Do you need any more help?”

“No, thanks!” Zhang Tie frankly walked towards the residence of the three women alone.

All the buildings here were connected by wooden bridges and corridors which were built on water. Reeds and rosy fluorescent lamps were on both sides of the wooden bridges and corridors, making it pretty tranquil.

Zhang Tie soon came to the door of the No. 9 cabin. Before he knocked at the door, the door had been opened as Ma Aiyun, Gu Caidie and Yuan Ziyi were watching him with a smile behind the door.

Although the three senior sister apprentices had changed their costumes today, they wore rigorously and seriously, exposing nothing sexual. Zhang Tie let out a sigh of relief inside. To be honest, Zhang Tie was afraid of seeing them standing in front of him in thin silk dress. If they did that, Zhang Tie would feel embarrassed, disappointed and sad instead of enjoying it.

“Where are you looking at?” Yuan Ziyi threw a glance at Zhang Tie as she said, “Are you not satisfied with our dress? I remember that someone said Aiyun had a good figure, was plump and sunken in the right places and womanly. Do you want her to show her good figure...”

After hearing Yuan Ziyi’s words, Ma Aiyun threw a glance at Zhang Tie as her face blushed at once.

Zhang Tie burst into laughter as he said, “Zi Yi, Caidie, you’re not worse than her either. If you want me to enjoy it one day, I wouldn’t refuse it...”

“Peh, you’ve got so many wives. Haven’t you been satisfied with it? We’ve heard so many dissolute affairs about you in Yingzhou Province these years...”

Zhang Tie let out a sigh as he replied, “It couldn’t be so exaggerating. Actually, I’m always innocent!”

“Who believes that?”

The three people then welcomed Zhang Tie in. After making jokes, they all felt much relaxed.

“We didn’t know when you would come tonight; therefore, we’ve not had people serve the dishes and drinks in case they turn cold...” Gu Caidie explained as she pulled the rope of a bell outside the door so as to remind the waiter to serve dishes and drinks.

After glancing at the building, Zhang Tie asked, “Do you live upstairs?”

“Yup, do you want a visit?”

“Females only! I remember that there was always such a board outside the doors of your female dorms when in Hidden Dragon Island. I dare not intrude it. It was told that all the senior fellow apprentices who dared intrude female dorms had been beaten heavily!”

“But you’re already a knight, no need to be that timid!”

“The more experienced one was, the timider he would be!”

The three women were delighted once again as they directly led Zhang Tie to a room neighboring water on the first floor.

There were a soft bed and a long table in the room. Through the window, they could righty see the ripples on the lake. The window was covered by a bamboo curtain. In the room, they could hear surging water beneath the room. It was suitable for a drink.

After taking a seat, they continued to talk about their recent situations. Only after a short while, the bell had rung as Gu Caidie stood up, saying, “Here’re dishes and drinks. I will open the door...”

The waiter served some trays of delicate and fresh dishes and a jug of spirit. After saying “Enjoy it”, he had left.

Ma Aiyun stood up and made four glasses of spirit. After that, she took her own glass. After watching Zhang Tie for a second, she said, “When you promoted to a knight, we three didn’t attend your rotating chakra ceremony. Congratulations!”

Gu Caidie, Yuan Ziyi both took their glasses after hearing Ma Aiyun’s words. After that, the three women exchanged a glance with each other as they bottomed up their own spirit.

Of course, Zhang Tie would not decline. He took his glass as he raised his head and bottomed it up...

After putting down his glass, Zhang Tie found Ma Aiyun was watching him with tears.

“Aiyun, what’s wrong with you...”

Closely after that, Zhang Tie felt the spirit exploding in his body like an alchemist’s bomb in a split second...
