Before healing Ao Kong's injuries, Zhang Dongyun had already sensed that something was wrong when he brought Ao Kong into Invincible City.
There was something wrong with Ao Kong's cultivation.
Compared to the Ape Dragon King 30 years ago, the current him was much weaker.
This was not because of his injuries.
At this moment, in Daming Palace, Ao Kong's injuries had all healed.
But even when he was healthy, he was only at the level of a Ninth Realm cultivator.
This was obviously different from the Ape Dragon King of the past.
But Ao Kong was still Ao Kong, and not someone else pretending to be him.
He did not reincarnate and cultivate again.
"Big Brother, I understand your doubts."
Ao Kong sighed deeply. "I was also shocked back then, and found it hard to accept. At first, I even vented my anger on Ying Er, but after thinking about it, I realized I shouldn't have done that."
Shen Herong's eyes flashed. "Eleventh Brother, did your strength drop after you gave birth to Ying Er?
Hmm, or should I say, after your wife got pregnant, you should have changed? "
Ao Kong nodded helplessly. "That's right, her belly grew bigger day by day, and my cultivation level dropped.
At that time, I had old injuries, and thought it was because of them, so I didn't realize it at first.
But later, I realized that it was because my cultivation level had dropped, and it had dropped several levels.
The only good thing is that if my original injuries were on a Ninth Realm cultivator, he would have died a hundred times over.
Now that it's on me, it didn't kill me. "
He smiled helplessly. "Now that I think about it, I'll just treat it as me giving my cultivation to my daughter.
It's easy for her to cultivate, and there's no demon blood to disturb her, so there's no risk of her getting lost.
As for myself, now that I've been saved by Big Brother, my injuries have healed, and I can start all over again. It won't be long before I can go back. "
When he said the last few words, Ao Kong's expression became fierce and wild again, making people see the shadow of the Ape Dragon King of the past.
"With me, you can return to your peak faster."
Zhang Dongyun stood with his hands behind his back and smiled faintly. "Even more than the previous peak."
Ao Kong took a deep breath. "I can feel that the spiritual aura here is rich, big brother. It's very beneficial for cultivation."
He exhaled a mouthful of turbid air. "Big brother, this place is related to the Immortals, right?"
"That's right." Zhang Dongyun looked calm and did not deny it.
"I also obtained a fragment of the Immortals." Ao Kong sighed. "The problem with Ying Er and my cultivation might be caused by that fragment of The Immortals."
"Eleventh Brother said that he would … pass?" Shen Herong emphasized the word "pass".
Anger reappeared on Ao Kong's face. "Yes, I did. But then I fell into the trap of Ying Xiao, my son of a bitch. He stole the fragment of The Immortals."
"It doesn't matter. I'll just leave it with him temporarily." Zhang Dongyun's tone was indifferent. "After we scrape him out, we'll settle all the accounts together."
Ao Kong nodded hard. "After you find him and Yang Li, big brother, remember to call me."
"You have something to do. Go back and recuperate first." Zhang Dongyun said.
"Ying Er still doesn't know my identity. Eleventh Brother, don't be in a hurry to tell her." Shen Herong smiled.
Ao Kong also smiled. "You shouldn't tell her. Otherwise, when she sees you, I'll feel awkward."
"Those who know that you've entered Chang 'an are all kept by big brother. So, the leak of information is limited." Shen Herong said, "Let's keep a low profile for now. The outside world doesn't know our identity and whereabouts. It's more convenient for us to do things."
She paused for a moment and said softly, "Like you, I don't want to suspect anyone except Ying Xiao and Yang Li. But sometimes the truth is not what we want."
Ao Kong was silent for a moment and then said, "I understand what you mean. Although I insist on my opinion, I won't ruin your business with big brother.
As for everyone's current situation, I'll keep it a secret.
I'll stay with big brother and live in seclusion. Even if I go out, I'll keep a low profile. "
He laughed self-deprecatingly. "When I first met Ying Xiao, he recognized me, but I didn't recognize him. In the end, he caused me to suffer a great loss. Once bitten, twice shy. I will remember this lesson."
"Thank you, Eleventh Brother."
Shen Herong said, "Then I'll have to trouble you with another thing."
Ao Kong looked at her. She looked up at his face. "Trim your hair, beard, and nose hair. If it's not convenient for you, I'm willing to help."
Ao Kong heard this and laughed. "No, I won't."
Then he turned and left.
Shen Herong's eyebrows became slanted. He shook his head and sighed.
Only she and Zhang Dongyun were left in the hall.
She turned to Zhang Dongyun. Zhang Dongyun nodded. "Eleventh Brother, no problem."
Invincible City determined that the other party had no hostility or malice. Everything he said was true.
Shen Herong let out a long sigh of relief. He was completely relieved.
Other than her big brother, she finally had someone she could trust.
"People change with time, but they can change for the worse or for the better." She smiled. "In the past, no one would have thought that Eleventh Brother would get married and have a daughter."
Shen Herong smiled and looked up at Zhang Dongyun. "I really want to see what kind of person Mrs. Shen is."
Zhang Dongyun smiled faintly. "I want to too."
Shen Herong clapped his hands and looked cheerful. He looked a bit like his age. "No, I still can't stand Eleventh Brother's hair and beard. I have to go and fix it."
She waved at Zhang Dongyun. "See you later, big brother."
Then she left the hall.
Zhang Dongyun watched her leave. He shook his head with a smile and sat back down on his high seat.
It was easier for him to get along with Shen Herong than other people.
Now, there was one more person like Ao Kong.
It was as if he had an innate ability to trust and feel close to him.
He didn't know if it was because of the memories of the Evil Emperor Ming Tonghui.
Zhang Dongyun leaned back in his chair and looked up at the ceiling of the hall. He didn't say anything.
If the other party knew that Big Brother was no longer the Big Brother and Boss was no longer the Big Brother, where would the two of them go?
Zhang Dongyun raised his hand and rubbed the space between his eyebrows.
Throwing these distracting thoughts to the back of his mind, Master Zhang checked his system.
[Random Guardian Mission 6.2: Kill or capture Hong Xiao, the Dean of White Horse College who entered the city.]
[Castellan successfully captured Hong Xiao. Random Guardian Mission 6.1 completed. Obtained 1,000 experience points to upgrade.]
Zhang Dongyun scratched his head.
The corresponding guardian mission reward for a Third Realm invader was 100 experience points.
Fourth Realm, 200 experience points.
Fifth Realm, 300 experience points.
Sixth Realm, 400 experience points.
Seventh Realm, 500 experience points.
When it came to Eighth Realm invaders, the reward increased significantly.
One Level-8 invader was worth 700 Guardian Experience Points.
And when it came to Ninth Realm invaders, the reward went up another level, reaching 1,000 experience points.
Of course, this was very good, but there was a small problem this time.
The Dean of White Horse College, Hong Xiao, was a Ninth Realm invader, but he 'devoured' the Eighth Realm Deputy Dean of Northern Qi's Shuofeng Academy, Li Xuannian, the Eastern Tang Commandery Prince Fengqing, and the Seventh Realm invaders, Gao Zheng, Wang Ning, and Shao Mengxuan.
So many people from Eastern Tang and Northern Qi came together, but the system only generated a random guardian mission for Hong Xiao, a Ninth Realm invader. The others didn't trigger it.
This wasted a lot of experience points.
Master Zhang wished that these enemies came in batches and not all at once.
What saddened him even more was that the Ape Dragon King Ao Kong, who went out of control earlier, didn't trigger the guardian mission.
Although Ao Kong's realm dropped, he was still a Ninth Realm invader, so he wouldn't be 'devoured' by Hong Xiao. After all, wasn't this worth 1,000 experience points?
In the end, this Mountain Moving Demonic Ape was all mighty in front of others. He broke out of Hong Xiao's territory and suddenly had thousands of clones. He was just a monkey.
In the end, when Invincible City expanded and trapped him, Demon King Ao fainted and pretended to be dead.
As long as he didn't have any malicious intent towards Chang 'an City, the system naturally wouldn't count him as an invader and wouldn't generate a guardian mission.
After Zhang Dongyun dealt with Hong Xiao, Li Xuannian, Gao Zheng, and the others, he looked at Ao Kong, who was sleeping peacefully. Anger rose from the bottom of his heart, and he became bold.
He almost slapped this Eleventh Brother to wake him up and force him to transform into a demonic ape and fight back.
As long as this monkey fought back, the system would immediately generate a guardian mission, regardless of whether he was in the right or not.
Great City Lord Zhang could happily take it down and gain a thousand Guardian Experience Points.
As for Shen Herong, Ao Ying, and the others, as long as Zhang Dongyun was willing, they couldn't see anything.
When Ao Kong lost control, he also lost his memory. He didn't remember what happened when he transformed into a monkey. After that, he was beaten up by his boss because he couldn't remember …
Zhang Dongyun was tempted at that time. He struggled with himself for a long time and finally didn't do it.
"I'm still not flirtatious enough …" Master Zhang walked out of Daming Palace and sighed as he looked at the setting sun in the distance.
Back then, Master Zhang wanted to improve his moral integrity a little. Now, he regretted it a little.
Because according to the system, the required experience points for the next expansion, which was the sixth expansion, also went up a level.
The first expansion required 1,000 points, the second 2,000 points, the third 3,000 points, and the fourth 4,000 points. Until the fifth expansion, the guardian experience and the construction experience each required 5,000 points.
But this time, the standard for the sixth expansion wasn't a sequential one. It wasn't 6,000 points.
It was 7,000 points.
The reward for the guardian mission and the construction mission both required 7,000 points.
[Invincible City's development is on the right track and has left the novice stage.
The higher the city develops, the higher the requirements. Please continue to work hard, Castellan.]
What the hell … Zhang Dongyun cursed in his heart.
But who he was cursing was not certain.
Because he remembered the setting he made when he was designing the game on the Blue Planet …
The so-called higher the city developed, the higher the requirements. It actually meant that if the sixth expansion was completed, the required experience points for the next expansion would go up a level again.
The first five times, the good days of only adding a thousand each time were gone forever.
This time, it was just an extra 2,000 points, for a total of 7,000 points.
If Zhang Dongyun remembered correctly, the next expansion would be an increase of 3,000 points, in other words, a total of 10,000 points …
A certain someone who made the game settings in his previous life and was now the Castellan wanted to cry but had no tears.
