Chapter 544: Being Imprisoned
After leaving the Ancestral Bloodline Pavilion, Zhang Tie was escorted into an underground prison of Clansmen Pavilion by two serious deacons .
The two deacons looked as stiff as a piece of iron in front of Zhang Tie who dared to disobey the order of Clan elders . Zhang Tie had thought about refusing by force; however, given his current ability, he would definitely struggle in vain if he dared to stir up trouble in Clansmen Pavilion . Therefore, he just entered the prison with a glassy-eyed look .
"Bang . . . " after the door of the prison was shut up, Zhang Tie was left alone inside .
Until then did Zhang Tie start to look around this prison . It was a small room which covered over 10 square meters . The walls were made of caesious stones . There was a plank bed, a toilet bowl and a water pipe . There was a row of pores on a wall which were used to ventilate . As some sunlight penetrated through the pores, the room didn't look too dim . However, it was impossible for Zhang Tie to escape unless he turned into a mouse .
Every nation has its own laws and every family has its own rules . Huaiyuan Palace was now executing family rules on Zhang Tie . Being capricious and disobeyed the order of Clan elders at the cost of the benefit of the Clan . Zhang Tie knew that he had made a very severe crime . However, he really could not make it if he was forced to leave Waii Sub-Continent . Because Zhang Tie had promised those people in the Ice and Snow Wilderness who had a great hope on him that as long as one Slav fighter was still defending the Ice and Snow Wilderness, he would not abandon them .
What irritated the Clan elders of Huaiyuan Palace most was Zhang Tie's stubbornness . Two Clan elders were so infuriated that they directly left with a flick of their sleeves . Even Zhang Tie's sixth grandpa's face turned green . Finally, he had to have Zhang Tie imprisoned .
If not considering Ice and Snow Wilderness, Zhang Tie felt that Huaiyuan Palace truly had considered well for him . The Clan's arrangement was human friendly . As long as he agreed to leave Waii Sub-Continent, he would immediately have women, money, safety and an influential status in Zhang Clan . This was a special 'Panda-type' treatment given by the Clan after he awakened the immortal bloodline . Commoners could not even have it . Therefore, Zhang Tie became capricious in the eyes of the Clan elders .
"Should I make a choice?" at this moment, Zhang Tie could only make a choice between his promise and the expectation of Zhang Clan .
Zhang Tie had not imagined that he could have such trouble by awakening the bloodline called transformation .
Zhang Tie forced a bitter smile as he knew that his relationship with Huaiyuan Palace would break for sure if he didn't compromise this time . When in Heavens Cold City, his relationship with Huaiyuan Palace had become stiff, this time, he would be marginalized for sure in Huaiyuan Palace . Zhang Tie didn't know whether he could remedy this relationship . Of course, Zhang Tie didn't think that Huaiyuan Palace could implement any mandatory measures on him . Perhaps these Clan elders were a bit old-fashioned and prioritized the interest of Zhang Clan too much, they should have a high morality . They would not treat him too bad .
After standing there fore a short while, Zhang Tie threw himself onto the plank bed and started to cultivate . It would be too boring if he just stared at the icy walls .
As Zhang Tie didn't know how long would he be imprisoned there, he could only kill time by cultivating .
Shadow Demon Backroom——Mental Arithmetic——the 3rd floor of All-Spirits Pagoda——as Zhang Tie didn't know how to light surging points after LV 9, he could only cultivate himself between the three sides alternatively .
The narrow cell was too quiet . Nobody came to see him . Each day, only a cold steamed bun was put inside through the window of the door, by which Zhang Tie could keep alive and identify how many days have passed .
When the 7th cold steamed bun was put inside through the window, Zhang Tie had recited the sutra of the 3rd floor of All-Spirits Pagoda for over 400,000 times . Zhang Tie could still stand less than 6 seconds in the Shadow Demon Backroom; however, it was about 0 . 2 second longer than before . Through practicing mental arithmetic, Zhang Tie also improved his spiritual energy a bit .
When Zhang Tie thought that he would get his 8th steam bun here, the door was opened with a crashing sound . Someone entered . Zhang Tie opened his eyes and saw his 6th grandpa was standing in front of him . Zhang Tie hurriedly got off the bed and bowed towards him .
"Have you thought through these days?" Zhang Tie's 6th grandpa asked Zhang Tie with a calm voice .
"I'm sorry, 6th grandpa, I could not accept the Clan's arrangement . I will not leave Waii Sub-Continent until the continent collapse . I know what does this mean . I also understand the hope and concern from the Clan . Whereas, each one has his own persistence . I think that even Lord Huaiyuan doesn't expect that one of his descendants eats his words!" Zhang Tie replied frankly .
Zhang Tie's 6th grandpa moved his eyebrows as he glanced at Zhang Tie with a sophisticated look . He then sighed, "Alright, I know, you can leave now!"
Zhang Tie was so happy that he had not imagined that he could pass it so easily, "Thank you, 6th grandpa!"
"You're welcome . Now that you have your own choice, you should shoulder the corresponding responsibilities . Before leaving this place, hand out your clan identification plate . Hidden Dragon Palace doesn't fit you anymore . A person who has awakened his ancestral bloodline yet doesn't wish to contribute to the Clan is not suitable to stay in Hidden Dragon Palace anymore!"
Zhang Tie felt sad inside . He knew that Zhang Clan was driving him out of Hidden Dragon Palace . From today on, he would be nobody but a commoner . His future in Huaiyuan Palace also came to an end .
In this world, you could not make a choice at no price .
Zhang Tie took out his clan identification plate of Huaiyuan Palace and submitted it to his 6th grandpa . Holding it, his 6th grandpa forcefully pinched it into ashes .
"Take care of yourself . Do not do evil things in the name of Huaiyuan Palace . Otherwise, I will let you know the taste of home rules!" after warning Zhang Tie, he left .
"Let's go!" a scowling deacon of Clansmen Pavilion watched Zhang Tie, implying him to leave .
. . .
After walking out of the gate of the Clansmen Pavilion, Zhang Tie felt a bit dazzling by the sunlight . Therefore, he put his hand on his eyes for a few seconds . After being adapted to the sunlight, Zhang Tie looked back at the Clansmen Pavilion . He knew that he probably had no chance to come here again in the future while many Zhang commoners would have no chance to visit here in their whole lives .
Zhang Yang strode towards Zhang Tie and tightly hugged him . He then checked Zhang Tie from his head to toe, "Is everything okay?"
"It's okay!" Zhang Tie replied with a smile, "How do you know that I would be released today?"
"Let's talk about it in the vehicle!" Zhang Tie muffled .
Zhang Tie nodded before getting on the vehicle .
