Zhang Dongyun didn't really care about that Confucian expert.
What he cared about was that tree demon.
What he cared about was not the tree demon herself, but her relationship with Chu Yaoguang.
Maybe he could find a way to find Chu Yaoguang through this Twilight Mist.
Or maybe he could understand some of the changes in Chu Yaoguang over the years.
In fact, the reason why Zhang Dongyun cared so much about the former Eighth Sister was not because of her.
Anyway, it didn't matter if she was loyal or not, as long as she dared to do bad things and didn't enter the Invincible City.
Once she entered, Zhang Dongyun would directly teach her how to be a good person.
The reason why he wanted to find Chu Yaoguang as soon as possible was that Zhang Dongyun had a suspicion.
During the incident in the Immortals, did she get a fragment of the Immortals?
Although she said she didn't, and Zhang Dongyun didn't notice that the fragment was on her when he was in close contact with her, he couldn't make a conclusion until he was sure that she was telling the truth.
It was fine if she was the Chu Yaoguang who had gone through thick and thin with his sworn siblings.
If she had changed, then her claim about the fragment of the Immortals was also suspicious.
Maybe she was like Shen Herong and the fragment of the Immortals had fallen into the hands of others.
Or maybe she hid the fragment somewhere and didn't carry it with her.
Of course, it was also possible that she really didn't.
But he could only find out the truth after he found her.
Without the whereabouts of the other fragments of the Immortals, Zhang Dongyun thought about Chu Yaoguang first.
After obtaining Shen Herong's fragment, the Invincible City's existence was greatly extended.
But if one didn't think about the future, there would be immediate worries.
Zhang Dongyun still hoped to collect as many fragments of the Immortals as possible.
He hoped that Ao Kong and Qi Mo could send back good news soon in the Southern Wasteland.
After Zhang Dongyun handed the matter over to Ao Kong, he didn't think too much and focused on the matter at hand.
On one hand, the entire Central Plains, including the Northern Mang and the Southern Wasteland, had submitted to Chang 'an.
On the other hand, he was concerned about Shen Herong teaching people to eliminate illiteracy.
Apart from that, Zhang Dongyun had to focus on his martial arts cultivation.
If there came a day when he became invincible, he wouldn't have to worry about how long Invincible City would last.
The days passed one by one. Zhang Dongyun was focused on his own matters and did not notice the passage of time.
Until one day, Zhang Dongyun, who had been paying attention to Shen Herong's progress, suddenly had a thought.
He immediately waved his hand in the air again.
As he did this, a light image appeared.
It came from Ao Kong's rune.
Zhang Dongyun's eyes lit up.
Twilight had returned.
The information that he had scouted out back then was not too far off.
It was said that the owner of the house had gone out to visit a friend and would be back soon.
Now, as expected, he had returned.
Of course, it was impossible for the servants in the mansion to know that their master's so-called visit to a friend would be over 100,000 miles away …
Just like these mortals, they didn't know how capable their widowed wife was.
Zhang Dongyun had specially instructed Ao Kong to wait in the house, but not too close, in case the other party noticed that someone was waiting before entering the house.
Although Ao Kong was arrogant, he had been in the Jianghu for many years and had rich experience. Seeing that Zhang Dongyun's words made sense, he retreated far away.
He hired others to keep an eye on the town, and as soon as the owner returned home, they would report.
This kind of communication would take a lot of time.
However, the other party did not notice. After returning to the house, he acted as usual, as if he had returned to his own home.
Twilight had lived here in seclusion for many years, not caring about the affairs of the world.
The outside world did not know her whereabouts, and she also rarely interacted with the Southern Wasteland's demons and demons.
She left home on her own, and now she returned on her own.
Therefore, until Ao Kong came, she still did not know that the Southern Wasteland had undergone earth-shaking changes.
However, the moment Ao Kong came to visit, she immediately sensed something.
Before Ao Kong really came to her door, she didn't do anything.
Demons and demons ran rampant in the Southern Wasteland, and all kinds of great demons and human cultivators often came and went in the sky.
Even those who really flew over the town were not unheard of.
Twilight quietly lived in seclusion, not caring about the affairs of the world.
She had the intention to hide, and those who did not have the intention to pass by naturally did not notice, so they did not have anything to do with each other.
Therefore, when she sensed that Ao Kong was approaching the town, she still ignored him as usual.
But soon, a few signs appeared in her Primordial Spirit, like ripples on the calm surface of the water.
The newcomer was coming specifically for her.
"Where did you come from?"
When Ao Kong was still some distance away from the town, a woman's voice suddenly sounded in his ears.
He could not help but raise his eyebrows. "Such perception ability … Sun God?"
At present, Ao Kong's cultivation was still at the twelfth realm.
However, he had the two great demon transformations of the Illusory Clam and Illusory Sky Dragon at the same time, and was excellent at hiding his tracks.
People at the thirteenth realm would not be able to detect his arrival.
Especially when the two of them were still very far away.
With such keen senses, the other party was undoubtedly at the fourteenth realm.
Moreover, her soul was extremely agile.
"I didn't expect that there would be a Daoist Sun God hiding in the Southern Wasteland where demons and demons are active."
Having been discovered, Ao Kong was not flustered. "Ask me who I am, I'm called Ao Kong, have you heard of me before?"
The woman answered, "I've heard of you a little, I heard you're from the Middle Earth."
Ao Kong smiled. "It's good that you've heard of me."
As he spoke, he had already arrived in the town, and directly appeared in the courtyard.
Under the pavilion in the courtyard sat an old woman with many servants serving her.
However, these servants seemed to have not seen a tall man with disheveled hair suddenly appear in the courtyard in front of them.
In their view, their master was taking an afternoon nap in the pavilion, so they all kept quiet, not daring to disturb the old woman's rest.
However, in the view of Zhang Dongyun and Ao Kong, the old woman opened her eyes and sat up.
Her appearance gradually changed, turning into a young woman with a somewhat ethereal temperament. Her face was faintly shrouded in fog, making it difficult to see clearly.
Her eyes were as bright as stars, and she looked at Ao Kong. "Ape Dragon King of the Twelve Kings of Hell, why are you looking for me?"
As she spoke, an invisible fog spread in all directions.
However, the servants in the courtyard and the people in the town outside were completely unaware of this.
The fog continued to spread outwards, and in almost an instant, it had already enveloped an area of thousands of miles.
For ordinary mortals, nothing was noticed.
But for the woman in the pavilion, everything was in her eyes.
She was checking the surrounding environment to see if there was anyone else other than Ao Kong that she had not noticed.
Although few people in the world could hide from her Sun God realm spiritual perception, today, an outsider suddenly came to her door, so she had to be a little more careful.
Seeing this, Ao Kong did not care at all and said, "First, I'd like to invite you to Chang 'an as a guest. Second, I'd like to ask you about someone."
Twilight Mist looked at him quietly. "Chang 'an …"
The area within a radius of a thousand miles was shrouded, and the fog was even slowly spreading.
In such a vast territory, in addition to the ordinary people, there were also cultivators.
Although for Twilight Mist and Ao Kong, most of them were small fish and shrimps with weak cultivation, through these people, the words "Chang 'an" had already entered Twilight Mist's ears.
The top few demon clans and Devil Sect holy lands in the Southern Wasteland had all submitted to Chang 'an.
From them, they pushed down layer by layer, so more and more people and demons in the Southern Wasteland knew that there was a new master here.
The news spread, and now it was chaotic.
Through these cultivators, Twilight Mist had a rough understanding of Chang 'an.
"Chang 'an was built by the Twelve Kings of Hell?" Twilight Mist asked, "Who is the person you want to ask about?"
Ao Kong said, "Chu Yaoguang."
"That's strange. Aren't you together?" Twilight Mist shook her head. "How would I know about her?"
Ao Kong's eyes turned cold. "Hey, since I'm here today, I naturally know that you're the one who refined the Starry River Silk for her. Why are you pretending to be confused?"
Twilight Mist stared at him, her eyes brighter and more dazzling than before. "She told you that?"
Ao Kong sneered but did not say anything.
After looking at him for a while, Twilight Mist finally nodded. "Well, since you know, I'll be frank. The Starry River Silk was indeed refined by me. Why do you ask?"
Ao Kong chuckled and said, "Back then, what was that all about?"
"Nothing. I hit it off with Chu Yaoguang. She reincarnated and cultivated again. At that time, her cultivation realm was slightly lower and she had not become a Martial Emperor, so I refined a magic treasure for her to protect herself," Twilight Mist said.
Ao Kong turned his neck and looked around. "Is it here?"
Twilight Mist shook her head. "No, it's not here. When I was traveling, I met Chu Yaoguang by chance in the Western Regions. Although I invited her to be my guest, she said she had something to do and declined my invitation."
Ao Kong asked, "Where is the Western Regions?"
Twilight Mist looked at him. "I only asked because you and Chu Yaoguang are sworn siblings. Do you think I'm a prisoner?"
Ao Kong smiled. "Not really. I've been listening to people's advice these past few years to cultivate my moral character and not make enemies easily. I'm more willing to make friends. However, if someone wants to be my enemy, I don't mind."
"I'm not interested in making friends, nor am I interested in making enemies. It's best if no one disturbs me."
Twilight Mist said indifferently, "Looking at you, it seems that you're not on good terms with Chu Yaoguang now. If you want to make trouble for her, then I won't entertain you. "
Ao Kong looked up at the sky. "Trouble … I can't say for sure now. I have some things I want to ask her."
Twilight Mist shook her head. "Then I can't help you. We haven't seen each other since we parted that year. We haven't written letters, so I can't get in touch with her."
Ao Kong smiled. "It's fine. Just tell me where you met in the Western Regions and what you did."
Twilight Mist said indifferently, "I've already said that I'm not your prisoner."
Ao Kong sneered again.
"Eleventh Brother."
Zhang Dongyun's voice suddenly sounded.
Twilight Mist was startled, but she couldn't find any trace of Zhang Dongyun in the surroundings.
Ao Kong heard Zhang Dongyun's voice and suppressed his temper. He looked at Twilight Mist. "I've already said that I don't want to fight with anyone today. I'm here to investigate some things. For this reason, I even brought an extra lobbyist."
After saying this, he waved his hand.
A huge clam shell appeared out of thin air and opened to both sides. Qi Mo jumped out of it.
