Chapter 1192: Making a Promise

Translator: WQL Editor: Aleem

As the day was gradually breaking, Zhang Mansion was becoming increasingly boisterous.

Zhang Tie and the 5 wives didn’t stay on the huge bed for too long; especially his wives. As Zhang Tie had just come back, if his wives got up too late, they would be ridiculed. Therefore, they got up as early as usual. After cleansing themselves together with Zhang Tie, they had a breakfast with Bai Suxian. After that, they went to Zhang Tie’s parents’ main mansion to wish them good health.

In the morning, wish parents good health; in the evening, help parents cleanse themselves and go to bed. This was a regulation followed by many major Hua clans. Therefore, Linda, Beverly, Fiona, Aimei and Aixue had been used to it.

“Are Shini, Shixia and the other children still sleeping at this moment?” Zhang Tie asked Linda on the way towards the main mansion when he found that his 5 children had not got up.

It was Zhang Tie’s 2nd time to see his 5 children. It was also Zhang Tie’s 5 children’s first time to see Zhang Tie’s original body yesterday. The 5 children’s ages varied from 3 years old to less than 4 years old. Zhang Tie was like a stranger to them. Besides calling Zhang Tie’s dad, the 5 little guys almost ignored Zhang Tie. After supper, they played for a while under the guidance of the babysitters and nursery teachers before falling asleep.

3 boys, 2 girls. The little girl delivered by Linda was called Zhang Shini; the little girl delivered by Fiona was called Zhang Shixia; Beverly, Aimei and Aixue delivered boys, whose names were respectively Zhang Chengba, Zhang Chengxiao and Zhang Chengbing. Therefore, Zhang Tie had got 8 children in Taixia Country, 6 boys and 2 girls. Besides the 5 little guys who were still in Zhang Mansion, Zhang Chenglei, Zhang Chengting and Zhang Chengpei had already entered Heavens Fortune Sect.

“The doctor said that kids need to sleep more in winter so as to raise their vitality and grow better. They don’t need to get up too early!” Linda replied genially.

“In different seasons, one’s vitality indeed changes. Kids indeed don’t have to get up at the same time around the year. When I was young in Lord Guangnan’s Mansion, I would also get up late in winter. This is also the manifestation about the coexistence between the universe and human in details!” Bai Suxian said.

Although Bai Suxian had just come to Zhang Mansion yesterday, at Zhang Tie’s request, Bai Suxian and the other 5 women had called each other sisters, regardless of age. They could also get along well with each other. At least they would not lose temper in front of Zhang Tie. As Bai Suxian was new here, by contrast, Linda and the other 4 wives had already delivered babies; of course, Bai Suxian would not strive for Zhang Tie’s favor. Based on Bai Suxian’s temperament, she also disdained to strive for a favor in front of all the other women. Similarly, Linda and the other 4 wives knew that Bai Suxian had a dignified identity and was Zhang Tie’s helper on the battle field; of course, they treated her politely. Therefore, they all got along well with each other.

Among the other elders of Huaiyuan Palace, Elder Muray had the fewest wives; even so, he still had over 20 wives. Each knight-level elder had a lot of children and grandchildren. By contrast, Zhang Tie only had less than 10 wives, which indicated that he was “a bit meticulous” in sex among knights. Of course, all of his women felt very satisfied.

After hearing the words of Linda and Bai Suxian, Zhang Tie shook his head as he revealed a bitter smile. ‘As the undertaking grows larger, there would be more regulations at home. I didn’t even know these regulations when I was young. However, even these kids’ daily lives have been guided by counselors.’

When Zhang Tie and his wives came to the main mansion, Zhang Yang and Zhang Tie’s three elder sisters-in-law Wang Huizhen, Lu Shiyun and Wang Huayin almost arrived there at the same time. After that, Zhang Tie’s parents took their sons and daughters-in-law to wish Zhang Haitian and old madam good health. As the old man had the highest seniority, of course, the juniors should wish him good health on their own initiative. After that, Zhang family saw the old man and their relatives off until they boarded the airboat. These relatives would return to Tiger Embracing City by this airboat of Jinwu Business Group.

Zhang Haitian’s undertakings were all in Tiger Embracing City. After accomplishing the merger and acquisition of the clan’s shipbuilding enterprise under the affiliation of Huaiyuan Palace, Jinwu Business Group, Zhang Yang and Zhang Tie had owned the most of shares of Jinwu Shipbuilding Plant. The two brothers had absolute right of speech about the shipbuilding plant. However, Zhang Yang and Zhang Tie handed the management right of the plant to their uncles and cousins. Actually, the entire clan of Zhang Haitian was headed by Zhang Tie and Zhang Yang in Jinwu City.

Not until the Jinwu Airboat flew off did Zhang Tie let out a sigh slowly as he turned around and asked Zhang Yang, “When did the old man start to use a walking stick?”

After a few years, Zhang Tie found that Zhang Haitian had grown much elder and less spirited than before. Additionally, he started to be humpbacked and use a walking stick.

“The old man started to use the walking stick 2 years ago!” Zhang Yang replied with a sigh too, “When the old man was young, he spent his full efforts in the affairs of the shipbuilding plant; therefore, he didn’t spend too much time in cultivation. Only after 80 years old, his health grew much worse. It’s useless even though we have the best doctors, medicines and alchemist’s equipment; especially during the period when you were screwed and left home, I was told that the old man didn’t smile all the year round. He even let out deep sighs every day and would ask about your information in each a few days. Therefore, he grew much elder in only 2 years. When the old man knew that you were coming back, he became unprecedentedly happy…”

Zhang Tie became silent for a second before saying, “We’d better notice the eldest uncle. After a few days, let’s send the old man to the warm south to pass the winter. As the old man has a poor health, he’d better not pass winter from then on. It’s too cold in winter here, the old man could barely tide over it! Elder brother, you can pay attention to the southern isles and buy a proper one. Later on, our family can pass winter in the south.”

Zhang Yang threw a glance at Zhang Tie as he nodded.

The whole family then returned to the main mansion. At this moment, the steward of the main mansion came here to report that the knight of Heavens Fortune Sect had already come out and would like to see second young master alone.

The knight of Heavens Fortune Sect had been in a secluded cultivation in Zhang Tie’s family for a few years. However, on the 2nd day since Zhang Tie came back, he had come out.

This news was out of the imagination of Zhang Tie’s parents and Zhang Yang, except for Zhang Tie.

However, they were not shocked too much. Because the relationship between Heavens Fortunes Sect and Zhang family was based on the friendship between Zhang Tie and Heavens Fortune Sect. If not, Heavens Fortune Sect would not assign a knight to protect Zhang Tie’s family a few years ago, not to mention that they enrolled Zhang Tie’s 3 kids as their disciples.

In the parlor of the main mansion, Zhang Tie saw that knight from Heavens Fortune Sect.

This knight was short and sturdy with a dull look in a cyan robe which had turned a bit white after being washed too many times and a pair of ordinary cloth shoes. Given his look, he was about 50 years old with some gray hair like an old farmer entering the city in a set of clean clothes. How could such a person look like an earth knight on the street?

“Hermit, thanks for protecting Zhang Clan over these years!” Zhang Tie sincerely bowed deeply towards that knight from Heavens Fortune Sect.

“Elder Mushen, don’t be that polite!” This knight replied with a simple and honest smile.

“Hermit, may I know your name and position in Heavens Fortune Sect?” Zhang Tie sat beside this knight from Heavens Fortune Sect as he asked.

Until now, Zhang family only knew that this knight from Heavens Fortune Sect was surnamed Zhou and was a black iron knight. Since this person entered Zhang family and met Zhang Tie’s parents, he didn’t make too many exchanges with Zhang family. They were both clear about the “exchange” between them this morning; therefore, it was unnecessary for them to mention about that at this moment.

“I’m Zhou Hongbang, a wild cultivator in Simpleness Embracing Palace of Heavens Fortune Sect. I like being tranquil. My secret method grants me a sensitive perception. When Elder Mushen was wronged and left home a few years ago, none of the members of Heavens Fortune Sect believed that Elder Mushen could do such a conscienceless thing in Fuhai City; therefore, our Elders Council determined to assign one person to help Zhang family in Youzhou Province tide over this difficulty. I offered my self here!” This earth knight’s words were as simple and honest as his look. When one communicated with him, one would feel tranquil and comfortable.

“It’s my great honor to be favored by Heavens Fortune Sect!” Zhang Tie let out a long sigh.

Zhou Hongbang turned solemn at once, “Elder Mushen, no need to be that humble. Your 3 sons are really top talents in cultivation; additionally, they have already joined our Heavens Fortune Sect. They’re destined to promote to knights and make our sect more prosperous. As the good model of righteousness among humans, how could our Heavens Fortune Sect allow our disciples’ family to suffer from such a big trouble? In the competition for the position of the provincial governor of Youzhou Province, Elder Mushen gave out your gentle light, all of the elders in Heavens Fortune Sect and my master nephew Cangwu had witnessed that. My master nephew Cangwu even guaranteed that Elder Mushen could never do that in Fuhai City with his own cultivation base. When a Hua gentleman like you was screwed helplessly by the possible demons and b*stards of Heavens Reaching Church, of course, our Heavens Fortune Sect would not just ignore that. Over these years, Heavens Fortune Sect had been looking for the culprit of the tragedy in Fuhai City so as to redress Elder Mushen’s case. Unexpectedly, only after we found some clues, the culprit had revealed himself. We could not imagine that he was hiding in Xuanyuan Hill.

“It’s easy for us to add brilliance to one’s present splendor; however, it’s difficult to help a lame dog over a stile. Zhang Tie has bore Heavens Fortune Sect’s sincerity deep in mind. Later on, if Heavens Fortune Sect need my help, I, Zhang Tie would go through fire and water at the cost of my life!” Zhang Tie said as he clenched his fists with a solemn and resolute look…
