"Lao Zhenyuan pays his respects to Your Majesty."
After the man entered the hall, he bowed to Zhang Dongyun.
Zhang Dongyun looked at him quietly without a word.
Lao Zhenyuan maintained his bow and did not move.
After a long while, Zhang Dongyun said calmly, "Lou Ning pleaded for you just now."
Lao Zhenyuan felt warmth in his heart. At the same time, he was somewhat impressed. The City Lord did not take advantage of his subordinates at all. Instead, he owed all his favors to Lou Ning. No wonder Lou Ning respected the City Lord so much and thought that the City Lord would not make things difficult for him.
"I was blind and did not recognize an expert. My actions were rude and disrespectful. Today, I sincerely repent and ask for Your Majesty's forgiveness. Lao Zhenyuan will gladly accept any punishment from Your Majesty." The man bowed to Zhang Dongyun.
Zhang Dongyun waved his hand slightly. "Remember what you said today."
"Your Majesty is magnanimous. I thank you for your kindness." Lao Zhenyuan heaved a sigh of relief. Not only for himself, but also for Lou Ning.
However, he also knew that although he had pledged allegiance to Chang 'an, his position was somewhat awkward.
Next, he had to fight bravely and strive to make contributions. Only then could he be considered to have a place in Chang 'an.
"Go to the Western Region and meet up with Jie Feng and Gu Pu," Zhang Dongyun ordered.
Lao Zhenyuan hurriedly obeyed and left.
Zhang Dongyun looked at the man's back and smiled slightly.
Although Lao Zhenyuan had not pledged allegiance to Chang 'an, he had not made an enemy of Chang' an either.
With Lou Ning's plea, Zhang Dongyun naturally did not mind giving him a chance.
Truthfully speaking, Lao Zhenyuan's talent and strength were indeed extraordinary. He was even slightly better than the venerable experts of some famous sects and sacred grounds.
In the five regions of the Dong Sheng Divine Continent, except for the Southern Wasteland, where the Fiends were rampant and could openly establish their own sects. In other places, the Fiends were despised by everyone. Most of the time, they were banished or even besieged.
If a Demonic Path cultivator could cultivate to a relatively high boundary in a similar environment, they would be the best in all aspects.
Outside of the Southern Wasteland, across the Dong Sheng Divine Continent, only Mo Yunlong, Tan Ping, and Jiang Zhe were comparable to Lao Zhenyuan.
Among them, Lao Zhenyuan was the youngest and most talented. Like Lou Ning, he had hopes of reaching the fourteenth realm in a short period of time.
Just like how he guided Lou Ning earlier, Zhang Dongyun could now guide him to break through to the fourteenth realm.
However, there was no such thing as a free lunch in the world.
If Lao Zhenyuan wanted to gain something, he had to work hard for Chang 'an first.
After sending him away, Zhang Dongyun stretched out his hand and swiped in the air. In the air of the hall, a light and shadow image immediately appeared.
In this light image, the figures of the Flying Cloud Beasts appeared one after another.
These strange beasts could hover above the clouds for a long time without moving. Zhang Dongyun used them to build the communication network of Chang 'an City.
As long as Zhang Dongyun was willing, communication within Invincible City would not be a problem.
However, he still had to consider the areas outside Invincible City.
Moreover, Master Zhang did not want to worry about everything.
If possible, the City Lord would rather be a lord who ate, drank, and enjoyed himself.
After conquering the Southern Wasteland, more Flying Cloud Beasts sought refuge in Chang 'an City.
Therefore, Zhang Dongyun could also build a wider communication network.
Now, the network covered the entire Eastern Border.
Next, it was to expand even further.
First, he had to consider the vast Huang Sea between the Eastern Border and Middle Earth.
If he succeeded, not only would it be convenient to travel between the Eastern Border and Middle Earth, but they would also be able to communicate across thousands of miles of ocean.
To do this, the original Azure Sky Eyes would need to be further improved.
As a raw material, the Azure Sky Eyes were already rare.
Now that Chang 'an City was using them on a large scale, they were even rarer.
City Lord Zhang had only obtained a few more Azure Heaven Eyes after conquering the Western Domain.
The raw material was smashed into pieces and then processed before being distributed to the Flying Cloud Beasts.
"Don't worry, sir. We'll set off now."
The current leader of the Flying Cloud Beasts, Fan Feng, bowed his head respectfully to Mr. Dark Cloud, who was projected by Zhang Dongyun.
With the support of Chang 'an and Chang' an's guidance, Fan Feng's cultivation had improved and he had become the current leader of the Flying Cloud Beasts.
Even though there were other experts in the clan, they all respected Fan Feng.
After all, he had a good relationship with Mr. Dark Cloud of Chang 'an City.
Having Fan Feng interact with Chang 'an City was obviously more beneficial for the Flying Cloud Beasts to reproduce in Chang' an City.
The base camp of the Flying Cloud Beasts had now returned to the Southern Wasteland.
Back then, the previous leader of the Golden-Winged Great Rocs, Xuanfeng, broke through to the 14th level and became the top expert of the Southern Wasteland Demon Clan. The entire Great Rocs also rose in status and became domineering.
The Flying Cloud Beasts were bullied by the Golden-Winged Great Rocs and their ancestral land was occupied. They had no choice but to flee.
Now, Fan Feng and Huang Yu had brought a large number of Flying Cloud Beasts back to the Southern Wasteland to settle down.
Their current existence could be said to be supporting an important industry in Chang 'an City. Their status was not low.
The Golden-Winged Great Rocs did not dare to slight them anymore.
However, the Great Rocs had now surrendered to Chang 'an and were working for Chang' an. There were many experts in the clan, and the Flying Cloud Beasts could not compare to them.
Fan Feng, Huang Yu, and the other Flying Cloud Beasts did not find trouble with the Golden-Winged Great Rocs. They even warned their fellow clansmen not to rashly seek revenge.
Even if they wanted to seek revenge, they had to wait until they could suppress the Golden-Winged Great Rocs in all aspects. Then, they would ask Chang 'an to uphold justice.
Regarding this, the current leader of the Great Rocs, Cheng Guang, and all the clansmen were well aware of this.
However, the current situation did not allow them to eliminate the source of the problem.
Now, the Golden-Winged Great Rocs could only work for Chang 'an City, hoping to make more contributions and improve their status in Chang' an. Only in this way could they continue to suppress the Flying Cloud Beasts and other demon clans.
When Xuanfeng led their clan to rise in the past, they really made a lot of enemies, not just the Flying Cloud Beast Clan.
Now, because of Chang 'an City, their clan's strength was not enough to lead the others. The entire Southern Wasteland was turned upside down. Cheng Guang, the Great Rocs, led their clansmen. They could only carefully plan and use all kinds of conciliatory means to eliminate hatred and resolve hidden worries.
"In the past, some Rocs in our clan were ignorant and offended Brother Yun Xing. Brother Yun Xing, please be magnanimous and forgive them."
In the City in the Sky, Cheng Guang, the leader of the Golden-Winged Great Rocs, turned into his human form and visited in person.
The person he visited was one of the first demon clans to join Chang 'an City, Flying Snake Yun Xing.
Yun Xing was originally a member of the Earth Dragon. He also lived in the Southern Wasteland. However, because of his fear of the Golden-Winged Great Rocs, he fled all the way to the Eastern Border.
Later, the Golden-Winged Great Rocs even chased him all the way to the Eastern Border. As a result, they provoked Chang 'an City and became the first enemy of the Great Rocs to Chang' an.
It was under the guidance and care of Chang 'an City that Yun Xing could cultivate to the Demon Royal Realm and purify his bloodline, turning into a pure-blood Flying Snake.
His current cultivation and strength were naturally far from that of Cheng Guang, the Golden-Winged Great Rocs in the 13th realm. However, as the first demon clan to pledge allegiance to Chang 'an and the former mount of Mr. Zhang, the City Lord's close friend, Cheng Guang naturally tried to repair their relationship.
Moreover, even if he did not consider the issue of friendship, Yun Xing had already become a Flying Snake and was talented.
Under the care of Chang 'an City, his cultivation and strength would be improved sooner or later.
At that time, even if Cheng Guang was not afraid of him, he had to consider the young rocs in his clan.
The Golden-Winged Great Rocs could not take advantage of the fact that Yun Xing's cultivation had not improved to kill him first.
Since he could not do it the hard way, he could only use the soft way.
"I really don't dare to accept Patriarch Cheng Guang's words," Yun Xing said coldly with a pale face.
It was no wonder that these thieving birds wanted to skin and eat him alive.
"Let's set a date. I'll bring my clansmen to hold a banquet and apologize to you in person." Cheng Guang's smile did not fade. "Now we both serve Chang 'an and follow Mr. Zhang. It's really fate."
The fate of being mounts together …
Yun Xing looked at Cheng Guang with a strange expression, speechless for a moment.
"You're really thick-skinned …"
