Chapter 1314: Conquering Bai Suxian’s Family Members

Translator: WQL Editor: Aleem

Zhang Tie indeed had heard about some wedding customs in some regions of Taixia Country. In some regions, when a son-in-law proposed marriage in the female’s house, the female’s family members would find him troubles. Take these knights from Lord Guangnan’s Mansion as an instance, although they were blocking Zhang Tie’s door, they were never malicious. They might have long heard about Zhang Tie and couldn’t help but “test” Zhang Tie’s ability out of curiosity.

The knights of Lord Guangnan’s Mansion had already treated Zhang Tie as their brother’s son-in-law, which made Bai Suxian happy and a bit coy. However, when these guys wanted to make Zhang Tie embarrassed, Bai Suxian became a bit unhappy as she was worried that Zhang Tie would be infuriated. Therefore, she could only throw a glance at Zhang Tie carefully.

If they were ordinary ones, Bai Suxian had long reproached them; however, they were all Lord Guangnan’s myrmidons, who saw Bai Suxian growing up since she was young. They were like Bai Suxian’s uncles. Bai Suxian really didn’t know what to say.

Zhang Tie smiled at Bai Suxian as he comforted her that he was not that narrow-minded.

“Now that elder brothers would like to be intimate with me, please ask questions. If I could, I would answer you; if I cannot, I will admit that I’m a loser. After all, we’re of the same family. It’s just a game; never mind it!” Zhang Tie burst out into laughter brightly and clearly.

After hearing Zhang Tie’s words, all the knights at the entrance of the airboat exchanged a glance with each other as Zhang Tie left a good impression in their mind. They spoke highly of Zhang Tie inside, “What a Qianji Hermit! His easy-going personality is indeed unusual. No wonder, he could win the favor of the “magic woman” of Lord Guangnan’s Mansion.

“Fine, frank guy!” The bald-headed silly guy patted his own thigh forcefully, causing the fat of the half of his body to quiver. He watched Zhang Tie as he said heroically, “When our brother’s son-in-law propose marriage in the female’s house, he should pass three tests: first, a test on culture; second, a test on battle strength; third, a test on drinking capacity. When you went to Xuanyuan Hill, you detoxicated Old Zhong’s poison. Old Zhong was so excited when he mentioned it to us. We are convinced by your culture. You passed the first test. Therefore, you only need to match battle strength and drinking ability with us today...”

“How?” Zhang Tie asked with a smile.

“As we’re all knights, if we fought, we might be injured more or less. Let’s make it easier, just match strength. Attention! strength, not battle qi. I’m standing here. If you could push me away, you will win...” The bald-headed silly guy continued.

“No, Uncle Meng, you shouldn’t bully him in this way...” Bai Suxian hurriedly refused it for Zhang Tie before Zhang Tie expressed his opinion. Widely opening her eyes and pouting her mouth, Bai Suxian watched that silly guy as she added, “Uncle Meng, you’re born to have great strength. Additionally, you’re cultivating a count-level “Sky-Supporting Sutra”. “Sky-Supporting Sutra” could increase people’s strength most among all the cultivation methods that could help people promote to knights. Uncle Meng has promoted to an earth knight for over 3 decades; however, Zhang Tie has just promoted to an earth knight for a few years. Furthermore, Uncle Meng awakened the Fantasy-level Ancestral Wuding Bloodline of Meng Clan last year; you could even able to split open a mountain. Nobody else in Lord Guangnan’s Mansion could have greater strength than you. Even my dad said that you had the greatest strength in Lord Guangnan’s Mansion. If you match Zhang Tie on strength, it’s nothing different than bullying him. I don’t agree with that. Change one...”

“Erm...” Watching Bai Suxian pouting her mouth, the bald-headed silly guy felt a bit bashful. Touching his bald head, he turned around and looked at the other guys. Watching him turning around his head, Bai Suxian immediately understood it that this opinion on matching strength was worked out by them together. Although Zhang Tie was the son-in-law of Lord Guangnan, these myrmidons of Lord Guangnan’s Mansion would like to have Zhang Tie understand their high positions in Lord Guangnan’s Mansion; therefore, they chose such a program which they believed that “they would never lose” to frighten Zhang Tie to a certain degree. If Zhang Tie lost the match only in strength, he didn’t lose his face too much; because knight’ battle strength included more than just strength.

“Well, if uncles bully me, when I return to the Mansion, I will speak ill of you in front of my aunts; especially Uncle Meng. I will tell the aunt that you’ve fallen in love with another female knight here!”

After hearing that Bai Suxian was going to speak ill of him in front of his wife, the silly bald-headed guy immediately changed his face as he hurriedly waved his hand and said, “Little princess, you cannot do that. If your aunt fell for your words, I would have big trouble. She would peel off my skin...”

Zhang Tie burst out into laughter at once as he had not imagined that an earth knight could be so afraid of his wife, “Well, Suxian, it’s fine. It’s just a match on strength. I don’t care even if I lose it. Just have a try...”

“But...”

Bai Suxian still wanted to say something. However, Zhang Tie blinked his eyes to her. Bai Suxian then closed her mouth at once.

After hearing that Zhang Tie agreed to match strength with him, the silly guy hurriedly lowered his body as he put his arms forward horizontally, facing Zhang Tie with his palms. At the same time, he said, “As long as you could push me backward one step, you’re the winner. Don’t worry. This Old Meng will not hurt you. I will at most use 70% of my full strength. If you couldn’t move me for one time, you could try some more times...”

After saying that, the silly guy’s muscles bulged like a weird boa. At the same time, his body sounded like beating a drum from inside. As his qi and blood boiled, his body steamed, which indicated that he had exerted his strength to the extreme.

Zhang Tie watched him with interest. To be honest, this earth knight from Lord Guangnan’s Mansion was indeed the most powerful earth knight that Zhang Tie had ever seen. However, even so, his strength was still not on the same scale with Zhang Tie. ‘Bai Suxian didn’t know that “King Roc Sutra” could increase more strength than “Sky-Supporting Sutra” did. Although I’m not born with an unusual strength, my 7 strengths have reached an unimaginable level after I took so many seven-strength fruits. Additionally, source fruits could not only enhance my vital essence but also increase my strength, not to mention so many fruits of redemption from the gratitude of golden uangs that I ate these days...’

“Are you ready?” Zhang Tie walked over there casually. After seeing the firm, the plain metal wall inside airboat 7-8 m behind that silly guy, Zhang Tie became reassured.

“Come on...” The silly guy said while exhaling.

Standing in front of him, Zhang Tie put his palms against the silly guy’s palms. After seeing Zhang Tie’s arrogant deed, the silly guy and all the other onlookers looked a bit angry at once; however, their indignation soon flashed by. Soon after having a good impression of Zhang Tie, they had felt that Zhang Tie was pretty presumptuous. However, they still doubted that Qianji Hermit wanted to admit defeat in such a manner.

Whereas, the silly guy didn’t know that Zhang Tie used 2 hands given his face. Zhang Tie was actually worried about that the hand of this silly guy was shattered because of uneven force.

“Are you ready, one, two, three...” Zhang Tie opened his mouth...

Soon after Zhang Tie’s words, with a sound of “bang...”, the silly guy had been sent flying into the airboat and hit onto the metal wall before sliding off...

Everybody became stunned, including Bai Suxian, except for Zhang Tie who still maintained his smile.

“Old Meng, even though you’re afraid of being beaten by your tigress at home, you don’t need to behave in such a poor way. That’s too ridiculous. Holy sh*t! This father has known you for 5-6 decades. When did you start to show the white feather in such a manner? When did your deadhead become enlightened...” Another knight couldn’t help but exclaim soon after the silly guy picked himself up.

Of course, the others thought Old Meng did that on purpose; there were no other possibilities. Because of the following 2 reasons: first, Zhang Tie had not triggered his battle qi; second, he didn’t use too much strength at all. However, Old Meng was sent flying backward. Evidently, Old Meng intended to show his weakness.

The silly guy shook his head as he roared. Closely after that, he tore apart his boa silk robe regardless of the others’ irony, exposing his muscled upper body. After that, he rushed towards Zhang Tie once again. This time, he made a pose by bending his legs in a heavier way; meanwhile, his upper body slightly inclined forward as his body steamed and the blood vessels in his hands and neck undulated like boas. After that, he said, “I’ve not used my full strength, one more time...”

Zhang Tie smiled. Like how he did just now, he put his hands against the palms of this silly guy once again as he said, “Ready? One, two, three...”

Just like before, soon after Zhang Tie finished his words, the silly guy had been sent flying backward and hit on the same metal wall before sliding off, causing another bang.

This time, all the onlookers had seen it clearly. Soon after Zhang Tie finished the word “three”, he had pushed forward while straightening up his arms. At the same time, Old Meng was sent flying backward without any resistance like an ox being collided by a train.

This time, a part of the metal wall sunk inside.

After picking himself up, Old Meng shook his head as if he still didn’t believe that he could be sent flying backward by Zhang Tie’s hands which looked “weak”. Therefore, he rushed towards Zhang Tie and made a pose for the 3rd time as he shouted, “One more time...”

At this moment, two other earth knights exchanged a glance with each other before jumping out of the crowd and coming to the back of that silly guy. Closely after that, they both made a pose as they put their arms straightly on the silly guy’s shoulders. Being as wide as the gate of a warehouse, the silly guy’s shoulders could easily hold 4 palms at the same time.

“One, two, three...”

“Bang...”

Undoubtedly, soon after the word “three”, the 3 earth knights had been sent flying backward and hit onto the metal wall behind them.

All the onlookers were dumbfounded by Zhang Tie’s superhuman strength. ‘How could a person send 3 earth knights flying backward so easily? What a terrifying strength does Zhang Tie have? Given Zhang Tie’s look, he’s not used his full strength at all.’

“Superhuman strength...real superhuman strength...this Old Meng is conquered...” The silly guy said with full of admiration as he cupped his hands towards Zhang Tie when he picked himself up once again. The other two earth knights also cupped their hands towards Zhang Tie with an admiring look. All the knights at present realized that Zhang Tie had a terrifying, great strength in close combat even though he didn’t release his battle qi. He could even tear apart steel by hand. They really wondered how did Zhang Tie practice his strength.

Bai Suxian watched Zhang Tie with a blush in an adoring look. Although Zhang Tie was the winner, it seemed that she was happier than Zhang Tie. Such a pure wrestle on masculinity and strength was convincing to her.

“Hahaha, Qianji Hermit really excels at culture and combat. Suxian’s insight is sharp...” A gentle and noble middle-aged man with a long beard walked out of the tunnel from the back of the entrance with his candid smile.

“2nd master!”

“2nd uncle!”

Soon after this middle-aged man appeared, Bai Suxian and the other knights at the entrance hurriedly greeted him. After knowing his identity, Zhang Tie also greeted him politely.

After looking at Zhang Tie from his head to his toe, that person nodded towards Zhang Tie with a smile. Closely after that, he turned around and watched that silly guy and the onlooking knights, “Do you admit defeat now?”

“We admit defeat!” All the myrmidons of Lord Guangnan’s Mansion nodded as they replied because Zhang Tie’s strength was really great enough to win people’s admiration.

“Now that you’ve admitted defeat, come in; I’ve had people prepare well the banquet. If you couldn’t even match his drinking capability, don’t blame me for flogging you with the bamboo!”

“Hahaha, 2nd master really cares about our faces...” The silly guy surnamed Meng smirked as he touched his bald head once again as if he didn’t care about the result of the test at all.

“Please...” Bai Suxian’s 2nd master made a gesture to invite Zhang Tie in as if he treated the latter as a VIP of Lord Guangnan’s Mansion instead of the ordinary elder brother’s son-in-law.

“2nd uncle first!” Zhang Tie replied modestly with a smile.

Bai Suxian’s 2nd uncle nodded as he burst out into laughter. At the same time, he walked into the airboat together with Zhang Tie arm in arm...
