"Your Majesty, I do have the blood of the demon race."
The young man named Wang Shenxing bowed to Zhang Dongyun. "However, I have been an orphan since I was a child, and I have almost no memory of my parents. I don't know if the blood came from my father or my mother."
Zhang Dongyun said, "Whether human or demon, as long as you abide by the rules of Chang 'an, you will have a foothold here. Half-demons are no exception."
"Thank you, Your Majesty." Wang Shenxing secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
Although he had heard that there were many powerful demons in Chang 'an, a half-demon like him was still treading on thin ice.
After all, his experience since childhood told him that both human and demon were extremely repulsed by half-demons like him and regarded him as a disgrace.
Now that His Majesty had said so, at least in Chang 'an, he would not be treated with hostility because of his blood.
To him, having a relatively relaxed environment would be beneficial for him to rise faster.
From this point of view, it was a good thing that the North Continent had a new master.
When his cultivation strength improved to a certain level, others would naturally not be able to suppress him.
All he needed was some time.
Zhang Dongyun glanced at Wang Shenxing below. "Chang 'an does not forbid private fights, but there are also rules."
Wang Shenxing's heart skipped a beat.
The City Lord of Chang 'an seemed to be able to directly see through people's thoughts.
"Chang 'an does not forbid private fights, but there is a prerequisite. You must not delay His Majesty's business," Immortal Cheng Yang reminded him.
Wang Shenxing replied, "Your Majesty and Taoist Master, please rest assured. I know."
He bowed to Zhang Dongyun above. "Your Majesty, I believe that as I work for Your Majesty loyally and improve my cultivation, I will have more and more friends and fewer enemies. As for now, someone wants to make trouble for me, I will deal with it appropriately. I will not delay Your Majesty's business."
Zhang Dongyun heard that and secretly smiled.
Although this man was young, he was quite broad-minded.
What he said meant that he would not easily provoke others, seek revenge on those who oppressed him, and take the initiative to create conflicts under Chang 'an.
He was confident that as long as the environment was slightly more relaxed, he would definitely be able to swim in the sea like a dragon and soar into the sky.
As his strength increased, he would naturally have more friends and fewer enemies.
No matter what the other party thought, the smile on his face would only grow wider and wider.
In the end, even if there were still enemies who were stubborn to the end, they would not dare to casually start a war with him.
If someone really made the first move against him, then he would just accept it.
No matter how difficult it was, it couldn't be more difficult than before he went to Chang 'an.
What Zhang Dongyun admired was that this person was not a kind person.
He wasn't being sarcastic.
The North Continent was the world of martial arts cultivators and demonic cultivators. Tyrants were everywhere.
Those who could occupy a place here were not easy to deal with.
This was especially true for someone like Wang Shenxing, who was innately discriminated against. If he wanted to gain a foothold, there was no hope for him to be a coward. Instead, he would only be eaten alive.
Although it was difficult for him, no one dared to underestimate him. He was infamous in the North Continent.
He was both ruthless and cautious. He didn't easily make enemies. However, once he made a move, his entire family would be destroyed.
Most of the time, he was extremely daring in his actions. It completely didn't match the two words "cautious" in his name.
For such a person to suddenly become a vegetarian, many people would be surprised.
However, if one thought about it carefully, it was obvious that he knew better than most people.
As expected, for a half-demon orphan to be able to make his way to where he was today, it was impossible for him to purely rely on bravery and ruthlessness.
"For the rest of the time, you will go to the Aparagodaniya and report to Eleventh Brother and Gu Pu."
Zhang Dongyun instructed calmly, "Cheng Yang, you will have to find another helper."
Perfected Cheng Yang bowed. "Yes, Your Majesty."
Wang Shenxing was decisive and capable in all aspects. He was also familiar with the local situation in the North Continent. With his help, Perfected Cheng Yang would be able to save a lot of trouble in the North Continent.
However, since Zhang Dongyun had given the order, Perfected Cheng Yang would naturally obey.
Moreover, this was also beneficial for Wang Shenxing himself.
The environment in the North Continent had been unfriendly to him for so many years.
When he left temporarily and went to the front lines in the Aparagodaniya, he would be surrounded by the core members of Chang 'an City. Furthermore, he was constantly cleaning up the remnants of the Buddhist sects. Even if everyone rejected Wang Shenxing, it was because they were worried that he would attack first, not because he was a half-demon.
Wang Shenxing had made contributions in the Aparagodaniya. When he returned to the North Continent, his weight would naturally be different.
Because of his bloodline, he cultivated the Demonic Dao.
Moreover, it was the extremely rare Qilin Transformation.
For many years, no Qilins had lived in the Flameyellow World.
Therefore, the Qilin Transformation of the Demonic Dao was basically impossible to see.
Wang Shenxing was currently the only one.
The advantage was that his mystiques were exquisite and domineering, making him stronger than others.
The disadvantage was that there were no predecessors to learn from. He had to figure everything out himself. Moreover, the risk of losing control and getting lost was no lower than those who absorbed demon blood from outside.
Under such circumstances, he had cultivated to the twelfth level in an extremely short period of time, which was the third level of the Demonic Dao True Body, Rebirth. He had completely reshaped his demonic soul body and escaped the pain of the bloodline invading his mind. It could be said that it was extremely rare.
If he could catch the eye of Ao Kong after going to the Aparagodaniya Continent, it would be of great benefit to him.
Wang Shenxing did not know that Ao Kong was in the Aparagodaniya Continent, so he did not have any more thoughts in this regard.
He was only thinking that the Buddhist disciples in the Aparagodaniya Continent had fled and there was no danger to speak of. Many people were rushing to go there, hoping to take the opportunity to make contributions and ask for rewards from the City of Chang 'an.
However, there were rumors that the Buddha's Revered One was not there and could return at any time. Therefore, the real danger could come at any time.
With Zhang Dongyun's identity and status, he naturally would not say that he would tolerate a half-demon like him and then throw him to his death.
Although the Buddha's Revered One was a big name, it might not be in the eyes of the City Lord of Chang 'an.
"I will obey Your Majesty's decree." Wang Shenxing bowed to Zhang Dongyun.
Zhang Dongyun waved his hand, and Cheng Yang Zhenren and Wang Shenxing took their leave.
It would not be difficult for the old Taoist to find an assistant in the North Continent.
As mentioned before, in the North Continent, there were many people like Wang Shenxing who sincerely wanted to join the City of Chang 'an.
Among them, there was no lack of capable people. Even if they were not as good as Wang Shenxing, it was more than enough.
The situation in the Aparagodaniya Continent was completely different.
In terms of military force, the entire Aparagodaniya Continent could be said to be a part of the City of Chang 'an.
Most of the monks who resisted were forced to retreat into the Huang Sea, leaving only a few on land.
The City of Chang 'an had also begun to spread its political influence in the Aparagodaniya Continent.
However, this place was the source of the Buddhist sects in the Yan Huang World.
The Buddhist sects had been operating here for too long, and their foundation was deeper than in other places.
Back in the western region of the Dong Sheng Divine Continent, although it was also the world of Buddhism, at least there were martial sects like Jie Feng and the Caged Dragon Sect.
Admittedly, Jie Feng had taken the opportunity when the Buddhist sects in the western region were greatly weakened by the incident of the Immortals to successfully break through the shackles and reach the fourteenth realm, leading the Caged Dragon Sect to become stronger.
However, before that, the Caged Dragon Sect still had some scale.
Other than the Caged Dragon Sect, there were other martial sects and small Confucian sects in the western region.
At least, there was a place for them to live.
On the other hand, the entire Aparagodaniya Continent was filled with Buddhists.
The people here were either Buddhist disciples who had received their precepts, or ordinary people who believed in Buddhism and revered the Buddhist dharma.
After countless years, the entire Aparagodaniya Continent was like an iron bucket. Needles could not be inserted, and water could not be splashed.
The City of Chang 'an had broken this iron bucket with brute force from the outside.
However, a broken iron bucket was still an iron bucket.
The cultivators here were all Buddhists.
The ordinary people here still believed in the Buddhist dharma.
Although most of them feared and submitted to the City of Chang 'an, there was also a hidden hatred.
It was extremely difficult for them to cooperate with the City of Chang 'an and work for the City of Chang' an.
Even if they forced themselves to, they might not put in any effort.
According to a saying from the Cerulean Planet in Zhang Dongyun's previous life, many people's mentality was that they would not cooperate without violence.
After Ao Kong went there to take a look, he suggested that they keep the land and change the species.
Keep the land and kill all the people.
Then they would migrate people from the North Continent, the Dong Sheng Divine Continent, and even the loyal and reliable demons from the Nanzhan Department Continent.
Zhang Dongyun was still conflicted about this idea.
After all, it was not just one or two people.
The entire Aparagodaniya Continent was vast, with an area of tens of billions of square kilometers. Its population was no less than that of the Dong Sheng Divine Continent.
However, if they did not use Ao Kong's idea, there had to be another way.
Otherwise, the current state of the people in the Aparagodaniya Continent would not allow Master Zhang to meet the requirements and complete the System's mission.
After thinking for a while, Zhang Dongyun summoned someone to the Daming Palace.
After a short while, an old monk walked into the main hall to greet Zhang Dongyun.
"What do you think of the Aparagodaniya Continent?" Zhang Dongyun asked.
"The hearts of the people are towards Buddha. We can guide them."
The old monk put his palms together. "Buddha is in the hearts of the people, not the golden body of a temple."
Zhang Dongyun nodded his head in satisfaction. "In that case, the people of the Bodhi Temple will go to the Aparagodaniya Continent."
Below, the abbot of the Bodhi Temple in the Dong Sheng Divine Continent, Master Xin He, put his palms together. "As you wish, Your Majesty."
After he excused himself from Zhang Dongyun, he immediately set off and returned to his own Bodhi Temple. After some simple tidying up, many monks followed Xin and the abbot to the west and headed towards the Aparagodānīya.
When they arrived at the Aparagodaniya Continent and met with Ao Kong and Gu Pu, Xin, the abbot and the other monks split up and went deep into the people.
With their large-scale mobilization, the way things were done changed instantly.
To many of the people of the Aparagodaniya Continent, Chang 'an had the legacy of Buddhism. It could accommodate the legacy of Buddhism and they could continue to believe in Buddhism. This was very important.
Although everyone had their own temples in the past, it was not impossible to change to another temple. After all, the Buddhas and Bodhisattvas would still be the same.
Everyone was afraid of Chang 'an, but they were also afraid that the Buddhas and Bodhisattvas would blame them.
Now that they did not have to worry about the latter, their conflict with the former was not so obvious.
Zhang Dongyun saw all of this with his eyes.
In the future, their thinking still needed to be changed.
But step by step, everything was difficult at the beginning.
At the current stage, such an outcome was already a good start.
The key was that they could not stop or regress in the future.
