"I'll go take a look at these places."
After hearing Shen Herong's words, Ao Kong said in a deep voice.
Zhang Dongyun shook his head slightly. "You've reached a critical juncture in your cultivation, haven't you?"
Ao Kong grinned. "Big Brother's eyes are sharp. I'm not far from condensing the Illusory Demon True Body again."
Zhang Dongyun nodded. "Then cultivate diligently first."
Ao Kong gnashed his teeth. "Alright."
"Continue to collect information on these sects." Zhang Dongyun then turned to Shen Herong and said, "If there are no other Daoist sects within Southern Chen that are more suspicious, then keep an eye on Jade Embracing Mountain."
Shen Herong smiled and nodded. "Don't worry, Big Brother. I understand."
Ao Kong jumped up. "Since we're not going out, I'll go take a look at Ying Er first. She should be condensing her Demon Soul."
With Zhang Dongyun's guidance and the large amount of spirit energy in Invincible City, Ao Ying's cultivation had improved greatly during this period. She was already trying to break through to the eighth level of the Demon Dao, intending to condense her Demon Soul.
Zhang Dongyun was happy to see this happen.
However, he was more interested in what would happen if Ao Ying really did as her father imagined and refined the second type of demon blood.
She cultivated the Illusory Sky Dragon Transformation and was not confused by the demon blood. There was no hidden danger of losing control because her Illusory Sky Dragon Bloodline came from her father, Ao Kong.
However, Ao Kong did not pass on the Mountain Moving Demonic Ape bloodline to her.
If she cultivated other demon blood, would she lose control because of the second type of demon blood?
Zhang Dongyun was very interested in this.
However, he did not mention it. He only instructed Ao Kong, "Before you go into seclusion, choose your followers in Sky City."
Shen Herong turned into Mr. He, and Ao Kong turned into Mr. Long to disguise their identities in Chang 'an.
Both of them were in the first batch of people to enter Sky City.
When a man achieves the Dao, even his chickens and dogs will ascend to heaven.
Each of them could choose ten servants.
"If I had to choose, I would definitely choose the best."
Ao Kong waved his hand and said, "But it doesn't matter. Ying Er is in your palace, and I don't have anyone to bring along. Just do as you wish."
Zhang Dongyun said, "Then the others can choose. The rest is yours."
Ao Kong grinned. "I'll leave it to you, big brother."
"I don't have the time for that," Zhang Dongyun said, "You just have to inform Dark Cloud."
Ao Kong nodded indifferently and left the Daming Palace.
After Mister Dark Cloud saw him and heard his words, he nodded and said, "Don't worry, this old man will make the necessary arrangements."
"You've done your job well. Don't worry, Big Brother. I'm also relieved." Ao Kong nodded with satisfaction and became a hands-off boss.
Mr Dark Cloud smiled and returned to the Heavenly Pivot Hall on the ground.
There were still many people who signed up to go to Sky City.
The leaders of the families might be hesitant. They hoped that they could go to Sky City with their own merits instead of relying on others as servants.
But this didn't affect them from calmly selecting talents from the young members of their families and signing up.
Anyone could see that the social hierarchy in Chang 'an was becoming more and more obvious.
Daming Palace was undoubtedly the core of the top level.
It was the residence of His Majesty.
Except for a few servants, no one could live in it.
Even Mr. Dark Cloud, Mr. Blood Shadow, and the others could only come and go. They couldn't live there for long.
Now everyone looked at the Chen family with envy and jealousy.
Ming Yixue was brought back by Mr. Blood Shadow.
Miss Ying was by Mr. Long's side.
Among the several maids of His Majesty, only Chen Chaoyan was from the Chen family.
As long as this little girl stayed in Daming Palace, the Chen family's status in Chang 'an would definitely not be low.
Everyone in the Chen Family had always rejoiced in their hearts.
However, Chen Jiezhi still carefully selected the members of the family this time, hoping that they could follow Mr. Dark Cloud to Sky City.
Only Chaoyan was in Daming Palace. It was not enough.
The Chen family needed to be in the central position, where there were many members.
Now it seemed that Sky City was obviously the place with the highest level after Daming Palace.
It had already surpassed the former inner city of Chang 'an.
Although the Heavenly Pivot Hall, Divine Punishment Hall, and other key points were still on the ground, it could be seen that Sky City had surpassed them.
That place should probably be called the real inner city.
Or the imperial city that guarded Daming Palace.
If the Chen family wanted to prosper, they had to have someone there.
Of course, the best result was to enter Sky City with their own merits.
"The little merits we've made for Chang 'an have all been used in exchange for the House of Stuart's head."
Chen Jiezhi looked at the young people in front of him and said calmly, "If we give up the Xuanyuan Fruit, it may take a longer time for someone in the Chen family to break through to the Eighth Realm."
The young people in front of him all looked solemn, and they also felt a deep sense of crisis.
The Zheng family, He Family, Mirror Moon Tower, Zhao family, Fuzhen Guan, Hu family, and other forces had successively surrendered to Chang 'an.
There was more than one Seventh Realm master in these places, and there were even Eighth Realm masters.
Their overall strength was firmly above the current Chen family.
As for the Dahe Longmen, there was even less to say.
Although the Chen family had entered Chang 'an early, if they did not have a sense of crisis, they could be surpassed by more than one family at any time.
"It's naturally best if you can follow Mr. Dark Cloud. If you follow the other gentlemen, remember to put in the same effort and not be negligent."
Chen Jiezhi sighed softly. "I know it's hard for you young people, but this is a matter of great importance. You must bear with it."
The young people of the Chen family said one after another, "Don't worry, Third Uncle. We know the importance of this matter. We will be careful and not bring shame to the family.
These gentlemen are all powerful people. If we follow them and get some pointers from them, we will definitely benefit immensely. Why would we think it's hard? "
Chen Jiezhi nodded. "It's good that you think so."
Other than the Chen family, the other forces also carefully selected their best disciples.
Beside Elder Fuzhen Guan, Tang Chi, was the most outstanding disciple of the Fuzhen Guan's younger generation, Xie Zhao.
Seeing only Xie Zhao beside Tang Chi, Elder Liang Zhen of the Xuan Yi Sect was a bit surprised. "Fellow Cultivator Tang, is your sect …"
Tang Chi smiled. "If it weren't for the fact that I am mediocre and ordinary and most of the gentlemen look down on me, I would also like to follow you."
Xie Zhao, who was beside him, looked calm, and did not show any dissatisfaction.
"… Yes, yes." Liang Zhen was silent for a while, then he laughed to ease the awkwardness.
He really did not expect that Fuzhen Guan would be so generous!
Who was Xie Zhao?
Fuzhen Guan was the most outstanding person of the younger generation. He had always been the first true disciple of the sect, who was regarded as the future successor of the Abbey Dean.
In the past, even the Xuan Yi Sect, Green Cloud Temple, and Qingbokgung, the other three famous Taoist sects, admired Xie Zhao a lot. From time to time, they thought it would be great if he could be their disciple.
Now, Fuzhen Guan threw him to be a servant?
Elder Liang of the Xuan Yi Sect secretly called him a lunatic.
But in fact, he was a bit regretful.
This time, he also brought some disciples of the Xuan Yi Sect with him.
Although these were all outstanding disciples who were carefully selected, the most outstanding people in the sect were not willing to touch them.
However, when compared to the Wang Zhen Sect, the difference was obvious.
Elder Liang of the Xuan Yi Sect had the same feeling, and the head of the Hanshan school, Guo Zi.
He brought the most outstanding disciples of the sect, Hui Tianyu and the others, with him.
For this, Hui Tianyu even gave up his high position in the Tianshu Hall.
The one-eyed young man did not care about this.
His goal was to get to the core of the city, the center of the city.
Previously, Hui Tianyu had hoped to enter the Daming Palace and be a servant of His Majesty.
Unfortunately, the requirements to enter the palace were too high, and he could not pass.
Now, below the Daming Palace was the City in the Sky, which was higher than the Tianshu Hall and other departments on the ground. So, Hui Tianyu changed his target to the City in the Sky.
Even if he had to go from commanding hundreds of people in the Tianshu Hall to serving others as a servant in the City in the Sky.
Guo Zi naturally agreed with this.
He was also not worried about Hui Tianyu.
On the other hand, Guo Zi was worried about Cao Feng, who was more talented in martial arts.
As for Hui Tianyu, Guo Zi was not only not worried about him, but also had confidence in him.
This young man would not let him down.
Guo Zi was very happy at first, but when he saw the head of the Perak Dynasty, Wu Qiong, come here alone, his heart suddenly thumped.
"Brother Wu, you are …" Guo Zi was surprised and doubtful.
Wu Qiong looked calm, "Brother Guo, long time no see. I came here, of course, because I hope to follow a mister into the City in the Sky."
Guo Zi's heart instantly felt like it was about to explode.
"Brother Wu, as the head of the Perak Dynasty, if you go to the City in the Sky, then your sect …"
Without waiting for Guo Zi to finish, Wu Qiong smiled and waved his hand, "For the past year, I have only temporarily taken over the position of the head of the sect. At most, it was a transition. Now that the sect has stabilized again, I have stepped down from the position of head and handed it over to other capable people in the sect."
Guo Zi took a deep breath, "Brother Wu … You are very decisive!"
Wu Qiong's smile faded a little, "We are all from Longbei and have known each other for a long time. In the past, we have interacted with each other and got along very well. I will shamelessly say a few more words. Although Brother Guo and I are both heads of a sect, we are completely different from the likes of Fuzhen Guan, Taoist Zhi Chen, and Mirror Moon Tower's Lord Yan."
Guo Zi was silent.
He and Wu Qiong were both from the local sects of Longbei County.
Before this, their cultivations were only at the fourth realm of martial arts.
It was only with Chang 'an's guidance that they broke through to the fifth realm.
Fuzhen Guan and Mirror Moon Tower were both giants to them.
Although Xie Zhao was young, he was also at the fifth realm like them.
"Although Sky Beacon Mountain and Deer River Villa are the same as us and are local forces, each of them has several prefectures of land to themselves. They are still much stronger than us."
Slowly, Wu Qiong said, "We are just acquaintances. Please forgive my rudeness, Brother Guo."
"I should be the one thanking Brother Wu."
After a moment of silence, Guo Zi let out a long breath.
"Well said, as long as Brother Guo doesn't blame me." Wu Qiong nodded and said goodbye to him.
After saying goodbye to him, Guo Zi still stood in place.
Beside him, Hui Tianyu, who had been silent all this time, said, "Chang 'an's development is changing with each passing day. It is beyond everyone's expectations."
Guo Zi nodded slightly and sighed, "Yes!"
