Editor:Aleem

If not being reminded by Sarlin the Pontiff, Zhang Tie had almost forgotten that he had killed such a figure in Ice and Snow Wilderness when he had just promoted to a knight.

'The scepter priest of Sacred Light Empire on Western Continent? As a knight with a huge empire on Western Continent on his back, such a role was definitely dignified at that time. With such a dignity, this guy almost made trouble in Ice and Snow Wilderness.

However, such a person was nothing in Zhang Tie's eyes today. Zhang Tie had killed dozens of knights of demons or three-eye association these years, which included 6 earth knights. By contrast, that d**chebag he killed on Western Continent didn't leave a deep impression in his mind.

Zhang Tie had not imagined that what happened many years ago fermented today.

Zhang Tie was not afraid of Sacred Light Empire on Western Continent. Although Sacred Light Empire was nothing for Taixia Country, it was an extremely terrifying giant for Ice and Snow Wilderness.

Zhang Tie still remembered some information about Sacred Light Empire. Being unrivaled in the eastern region of Western Continent, this country was under the rule of Sacred Light Church. It integrated his regime with religion. Sacred Light Empire pursued invasion and had a very powerful trend for expansion. With over 10 billion people, its territory was almost equal to 5 times that of Blackson Humans Corridor; namely, it might be equal to the area of 5-6 provinces in Taixia Country. Sacred Light Empire was one of the most powerful empires on Western Continent.

Previously, an ambitious scepter priest of Sacred Light Empire almost caused Ice and Snow Wilderness to split up. Today, with the reason of revenging for the late specter priest of Sacred Light Empire, this country was going on an expedition towards the Sacred Iceland Kingdom. Those important elders in Ice and Snow Wilderness might have been sleepless.

'Sarlin the Pontiff knows my real identity; he also knows that I don't live well in Taixia Country; perhaps he has already known that my order for arrest has just been canceled off. So what? Because Sarlin the Pontiff also knows that I have terrifying enemies in Taixia Country such as the Gobbling Party.'

'This is the most helpless action and the way of survival for Sacred Iceland Kingdom.'

'Facing such a giant who exposes its fangs, Sarlin the Pontiff and the other elders in Ice and Snow Wilderness think that I the tsar, also the supreme ruler of Sacred Iceland Kingdom couldn't even protect myself. Even if I returned to Ice and Snow Wilderness, I would not help them a lot. A black iron knight couldn't reverse the overall situation facing Sacred Iceland Kingdom no matter how powerful he is.'

After thinking through this, Zhang Tie finally understood why he could meet Elder Gulas and old wild bear Dali in Xuanyuan Hill.

Zhang Tie felt being pretty guilty because it was him who killed that scepter priest; however, it was the entire Sacred Iceland Kingdom which was going to bear this severe consequence.

'However, there's one point that Sarlin the Pontiff and the other elders in Ice and Snow Wilderness could not imagine, I've already promoted to an earth knight in only a few years!'

When he thought about the above things, Zhang Tie gradually got hang of the problem and overall situation facing Ice and Snow Wilderness. Therefore, Zhang Tie became silent for a short while.

——Your Majesty, don't feel guilty about that. You killed the scepter priest of Sacred Light Empire for all the Slavs in Ice and Snow Wilderness instead of yourself. Without Your Majesty's efforts, once Sacred Light Church rooted in Ice and Snow Wilderness, all the Slavs would deteriorate into slaves and livestock of Sacred Light Church. Facing the coming revenge and stress from Sacred Light Empire, I've already told Gulas and Dali to seek for allies and foreign aids in Taixia Country. The entire Ancient God Church across Sacred Iceland Kingdom might be able to resist them. No matter what happens, Your Majesty is always the hope for all of us.

Because Zhang Tie became silent for a short while, Sarlin the Pontiff thought that Zhang Tie felt guilty about that. Therefore, Sarlin the Pontiff started to comfort Zhang Tie through the coarse remote-sensing crystal. According to Sarlin the Pontiff, even though Zhang Tie couldn't return to Sacred Iceland Kingdom for the time being, they would also work out a method to respond to this crisis. Although Sarlin the Pontiff didn't express it explicitly, Zhang Tie could feel that Sarlin the Pontiff expected him to not return to Ice and Snow Wilderness without ensuring to defeat Sacred Light Empire in case of involving himself into the crisis.

——We could die; however, Your Majesty has to survive!

This was what Sarlin the Pontiff meant.

Zhang Tie's eyes turned wet. In this room, he silently dropped off his tears. It had been such a long time since he dropped off tears.

After coming to Taixia Country for 4 or 5 years, Zhang Tie had experienced too many life or death situations. When he was framed by this culprit in Xuanyuan Hill, Zhang Tie didn't cry. When he was wanted by Taixia Country, he didn't cry; when he was disdained and sworn by the people across the world, he didn't cry; when he faced the great battle formation composed of tens of thousands of demon knights in the Earth-elements Realm, he didn't cry; however, Sarlin the Pontiff's one sentence made Zhang Tie drop off his tears silently.

After experiencing the hardships in Taixia Country, Zhang Tie became increasingly stronger. Any powerful enemy or chagrin would not make Zhang Tie drop off one tear; however, the decisive protection of his trusted ones at the critical moment made Zhang Tie embarrassed.

In the tears, Zhang Tie recovered his composure as he continued to contact Sarlin the Pontiff by the remote-sensing crystal so as to further confirm the current situation facing Ice and Snow Wilderness.

——How's the current situation facing Ice and Snow Wilderness and Ewentra Archipelago?

——Everything is normal. The entire Sacred Iceland Kingdom is flourishing. More and more outsiders are migrating in. With the dignity and power of Your Majesty, Ancient God Church has completely rooted in the country and won numerous believers. Wild bear tribe and fire bear tribe also intend to build cities. Besides Saint Peterburg and Eskil City, Ice and Snow Wilderness would have the 3rd city and the 4th city soon. All the children of Your Majesty are very healthy; additionally, being blessed by the Ancient God, they have become the sons of Ancient God. In case of wide-range panic, only some important elders across Ice and Snow Wilderness know the intelligence about the Sacred Light Empire...

Compared to the customary appellation of Zhang Tie, Sarlin the Pontiff used to call Zhang Tie's foundation and force in Waii Subcontinent as Sacred Iceland Kingdom. After hearing that his children were blessed by the Ancient God, Zhang Tie became a bit thrilled. Of course, Zhang Tie knew what "they were blessed by the Ancient God" meant. They must be born with a leakless body and the ancestral bloodlines that Zhang Tie had awakened.

In a split second, Zhang Tie even wanted to directly fly towards Ice and Snow Wilderness and looked at those people whom he was concerned about.

However, it was just an impulsion. After taking in a deep breath, Zhang Tie had recovered his composure. As for Zhang Tie, he couldn't just drop everything here in Taixia Country regardless of the outcome.

——Have you confirmed the intelligence about the Sacred Light Empire?

——We've confirmed it through many channels.

——Is there any chance for negotiation?

——Golden Roc Bank has a well-connected network and power on Western Continent; Sacred Light Empire is also a client of Golden Roc Bank. After receiving the intelligence, some important elders have already negotiated about it and known the attitude of Sacred Light Empire through Golden Roc Bank. If there's a possibility for compromise, Sacred Iceland Kingdom could stand it by paying some money or something else; however, Golden Roc Bank told us that Sacred Light Empire didn't agree with compromise decisively.

Sarlin the Pontiff's message was very detailed and complete. Between countries, there were neither enemies nor friends. Sacred Iceland Kingdom was far away from Sacred Light Empire. They didn't have any direct conflict of interest; additionally, their overall strength was not on the same level. If an ambitious scepter priest was killed by the Sacred Iceland Kingdom, this conflict might be reconciled at some cost; pitifully, Sacred Light Empire didn't think so.

Zhang Tie felt a bit disappointed as he continued——Does it mean that Sacred Light Empire just take revenge as an excuse?

——Indeed an excuse. If they wanted to revenge for that late scepter priest, Sacred Light Empire would not wait until now. The reason that they waited till now was that someone found that Sacred Iceland Kingdom's becoming more and more profitable. A few years ago, Ice and Snow Wilderness had been able to attract the greedy attention of a scepter priest of Sacred Light Empire; now, Sacred Iceland Kingdom has been qualified to attract more hungry wolves.

——How's the overall strength of Sacred Light Empire? How's their high-level battle force?

——Sacred Light Empire is one of the seven biggest countries on Western Continent. The pope who rules Sacred Light Empire is a heavenly knight. It's said that he had the greatest possibility to promote to a sage-level knight on the Western Continent. Under the rule of the pope, there are 3 sacred light major priests who are shadow knights and are responsible for three major parishes across Sacred Light Empire. Under the rule of the 3 sacred light major priests, there are almost 40 throne major priests who are earth knights. Under the rule of throne major priests, there are over 500 scepter priests who are earth knights.

Such a battle strength was indeed overwhelming in front of Sacred Iceland Kingdom. No wonder that Sacred Light Empire could become one of the powerful countries on Western Continent. After hearing that, Zhang Tie knew that Sarlin the Pontiff and the other major elders in Ice and Snow Wilderness had already learned about the overall situation of Sacred Light Empire pretty well. After hearing such a sharp contrast in battle strength between two countries, Zhang Tie narrowed his eyes at once...
