Chapter 1421: Fighting the Heavenly Demon Knight

Translator: WQL  Editor: Aleem

Watching the shiny bizarre rune of blood entering Sagus’ body, Zhang Tie finally revealed a smile.

He finally brought Sagus into the largest pit step by step.

This was what Zhang Tie wanted. He not only wanted to save over 200 million innocent Hua captives but also didn’t want to see helpless Taixia civilians on the battlefield from then on. Otherwise, demons and Heavens-reaching Church of Three-eyes Association would bring another 200 million Hua captives to clean out mines after today, and there would be no end.

It was easy for him to save 200 million people; however, it was not easy for demons to not repeat the same holocaust. Zhang Tie knew that Sagus must not agree if this condition took effect whether he won or lose the battle, at least it would be hesitant and weigh the advantages and disadvantages; however, if this condition was taken as a bet, as the demon army didn’t need to comply with this rule unless he defeated the heavenly demon knight, Sagus would have a chance to win the bet, though risking a heavenly demon knight’s life. If Zhang Tie was killed by the heavenly demon knight, his life would only be compensated with the freedom of 200 million civilians’ lives. After that, Sagus would not suffer the threat from Zhang Tie anymore. Even though they left over 200 million Hua captives to Taixia Country, demons could carry more constantly from the rear end.

However, as Zhang Tie had another identity——Gorath, the black-robed knight, whose moons-demon miasma could frighten demons, demons would not turn all the Hua captives into demonized puppets before having them clean out mines here. Otherwise, demons would bring about a dangerous barrier to themselves in front of their own army, which would absolutely be more destructive than incendiary mines in front of them.

In Sagus’ opinion, that heavenly demon knight could at least have 60-70% odds to kill Zhang Tie. It thought that Zhang Tie had already exposed all of his trump cards. No matter what, Zhang Tie could never kill a heavenly demon knight; even if he had some other trump cards, he could only increase his odds to escape. The gap between a shadow human knight and a heavenly demon knight was absolutely many times greater than that between an earth human knight and a shadow demon knight, not to mention that Zhang Tie had just promoted to a shadow knight. If Zhang Tie could really escape, the prestige that he had established in this fight for honor would collapse; Sagus would not comply with the bet, which meant that it could continue to push Hua civilians onto the battlefield in the future.

As long as Zhang Tie didn’t kill that heavenly demon knight in the fight for honor, Sagus would not lose its ground and this bloody pledge would lose its effect. This was also why Sagus dared make a bloody pledge of the demon god.

Bloody pledge of the demon god had a great constraint on each demon knight. It carried a strength of rule that demons believed in. Unless Sagus hoped to die along with its chakras, this bloody pledge had to be followed by all the demons in Taixia Country in the future.

As abyss king, Sagus was not stupid; instead, it was far-sighted; however, it couldn’t imagine that Zhang Tie was a divine dominator.

What’s the odds for a knight to be a divine dominator? During the 900 years after the Catastrophe, there had been many knights; however, there was only one divine dominator who was like a flash in the pan in the second holy war between humans and demons——the legendary King Fairy Sea who had disappeared.

The odds for Zhang Tie to be a divine dominator was definitely lower than that of hitting the jackpot. It was so normal that Sagus couldn’t guess that point as the odds was one in a million. Otherwise, Sagus would be a deity, rather than a sage-level demon knight.

After killing that shadow iron-armored demon knight in its 9 change realm, everything was sliding along the track preset by Zhang Tie smoothly. All the fights today that Zhang Tie designed was for this ultimate target.

If Sagus agreed with his condition, Zhang Tie had to fight that heavenly demon knight at his full efforts and had to expose his ability as a divine dominator.

If Sagus disagreed with him and would like to kill him by force illegitimately, Zhang Tie would also expose his ability as a divine dominator and give an unforgettable lesson to the demon army for the rest of their lives. Because he had to let all the demon knights and Sagus know that it was a divine dominator who threatened to avenge them if they killed innocent people in Taixia Country, instead of a common knight.

Someone’s death was as light as a stick of feather; someone’s death was as heavy as Mount Tai. Each person’s life was priceless, yet could be measured. So was one’s secrets.

If Zhang Tie didn’t expose his secret as a divine dominator at this moment, his ability as a divine dominator might save his single life or bring him huge benefits at another time and in another place. Zhang Tie had considered whether to expose this secret as divine dominator for his own sake; however, when he recalled the miserable shrieks of hundreds of millions of Hua captives and that mother and her baby who had been burned into ashes by incendiary mines which he had invented, the hesitation and selfishness in Zhang Tie’s mind dispersed immediately. Nothing could alter Zhang Tie’s decision anymore.

He would not care about the upcoming troubles and dangers on him anymore.

In a difficult time, it was a knight’s destiny to fight demons for the countrymen.

Zhang Tie stayed calm inside at this moment. He didn’t feel any tension or restlessness because of the coming dangerous duel. Under the gaze of hundreds of thousands of human knights and demon knights, Zhang Tie took off that string of remote-sensing communication finger rings from his neck as he sent a message to his elder brother, Bai Suxian and Yan Feiqing respectively.

After doing that, Zhang Tie watched the demon prince who had been over 10,000 m away as he said with a smile, “Let’s start…”



Heavenly knights’ value could be judged by the word “heavenly”.

Heavenly knights were heavens among knights which all the other knights must look up at!

Antorier’s killing intent surged as all the snowflakes above Weishui River disappeared at this moment.

Soon after Zhang Tie’s words, Antorier had already advanced 10,000 m and launched its attack towards Zhang Tie in an overwhelming way like Mount Tai.

When attacking Zhang Tie, Antorier was teleporting as fast as a lightning bolt, causing it to loom in the air. Each time it showed up, it had already marched 1,000 m forward.

The irresistible Five-elements Rings facing the strike of the former shadow demon knight in its 9 change realm collapsed immediately this time.

The strike of the heavenly demon knight had already surpassed the maximal bearing capacity of the Five-elements Rings. In front of great power, the mutual promotion and restraint between five elements didn’t work anymore.

After the Five-elements Rings collapsed, Zhang Tie’s protective sword wind also collapsed. However, Antorier’s overwhelming strike still failed to hit Zhang Tie’s body.

Because Zhang Tie had already disappeared from where he stood and was already rushing towards the heavenly demon knight.

A shadow human knight launched a counterattack towards a heavenly demon knight.

Zhang Tie always improved his battle skills by fighting Yan Feiqing in the tower of time; therefore, he knew the terrifying battle strength of a heavenly demon knight. Zhang Tie’s gold spear was not that threatening to a heavenly demon knight. In this case, the strike of his gold spear was only equal to a strike of a heavenly knight. Of course, a heavenly knight couldn’t be killed by another heavenly knight only by one strike. It was a lasting wrestle between two heavenly knights’ fight on tenacity and battle strength. In such a battle, even if Zhang Tie threw out all the gold spears that he got from Castle of Black Iron in one day, he might still not cause a fatal strike to Antorier. Therefore, close combat was necessary for him to win Sagus’ bet by killing Antorier. Only by constant kinetic strikes in close combat could he get the chance to kill the heavenly demon knight.

The first strike of Antorier had already caused over 20 fine wounds on Zhang Tie’s body after breaking his Five-elements Rings and protective sword wind while its sharp and ferocious battle qi was like spines and sabers that could even break through his protective battle qi, spraying his blood over the air…

However, Zhang Tie didn’t feel the pain at all; instead, he just kept his eyes on Antorier’s shadow.

Of course, Antorier was not teleporting and jumping in the air. The effect of teleport was caused by its super high moving speed, plus its weird movements——over 7 times that of the speed of sound.

Average wing demons used light weapons such as spines or forks; however, Antorier used a pair of a golden, heavy hammer.

The two figures soon approached to 1,000 m from each other.

“Go to hell…” Antorier roared as it fleered. At the same time, it swung its hammers at Zhang Tie with a greater battle qi.

Right then, Zhang Tie’s eyes shone…

When Antorier’s second wave of strike was about to fall on Zhang Tie, Zhang Tie immediately disappeared from its vision, leaving Antorier’s hammer strike in vain, like how Antorier disappeared in the public before.

Zhang Tie almost increased his flight speed in a split second by over 20 times, reaching more than 8,000 m per second.

At the same time, the mallet weighing 18.8 tons that Sagus gave Zhang Tie just now appeared in his hand…

“Go die…” Zhang Tie widely opened his eyes out of fury as he swung the mallet towards his opponent along with his blood.

“Boom…”

Being struck by hundreds of billions of Joule energy in a split second, the low yet dense dark clouds in the sky of the battlefield revealed many strange shapes by this heavy impact wave like a domino…

One mallet’s strike shocked the world!

All the human knights and demon knights in the battlefield were left dumbfounded…
