Li Shulou, Mahaloni, Gao Liang, Jing Hua, and the others went their separate ways in the vast universe outside Yan Huang.
In the Yan Huang World, in the Dong Sheng Divine Continent, in the Daming Palace, Zhang Dongyun was receiving others.
"I want to bring... Miss Chen to the Yan Huang World."
The tree demon Twilight Mist, who had cultivated Daoist techniques to the Yang Spirit Realm, stood in the hall with Chen Chaoyan and pleaded with Zhang Dongyun.
"Have you searched the west side as well?" Zhang Dongyun's tone was calm.
Twilight Mist sighed and nodded with Chen Chaoyan. "Thanks to Your Majesty's might, the Buddhists did not even dare to stay in the Far West Sea Region and retreated in panic. There are not many Buddhist disciples left in the Yan Huang World, so we tried to search, but we did not find anything."
After Chang'an City took over the North Continent and the Nanzhan Continent, Twilight Mist had brought Chen Chaoyan to explore the deep sea in the east, north, and south.
Unfortunately, they had found nothing.
After carefully searching the west, they were sure that the thing that Mo Li had hidden was not in Yan Huang.
Zhang Dongyun had expected this.
When his Invincible City expanded temporarily, it had reached the scale of the eleventh official expansion and occupied more than half of the Yan Huang World. There was no relevant harvest.
If Chen Chaoyan and Twilight Mist were looking for something, then Master Zhang could not find it in Invincible City. This meant that there was really nothing.
"Go, search carefully," Zhang Dongyun ordered.
Twilight Mist and Chen Chaoyan acknowledged in unison, then bowed and left.
Chen Chaoyan had successfully cultivated the Daoist Primordial Spirit.
However, if she wanted to roam the void outside Yan Huang, she was still unable to do so.
However, Twilight Mist was already in the Yang Spirit Realm, and it was convenient for Daoists to travel the void. She had no problem bringing Chen Chaoyan with her.
The great demon was now completely at ease and stayed in Chang'an.
On one hand, it was because of Chen Chaoyan. On the other hand, it was because of Mr. Fang Cun.
He was certain that the other party's cultivation was above the fourteenth level.
Currently, Twilight Mist was powerless to take revenge.
Mister Fang Cun was the enemy of Chang 'an. Therefore, Twilight Mist decided to work hard for the city of Chang' an and use the power of Chang 'an to take revenge.
Therefore, even though she was leaving with Chen Chaoyan, she didn't have the slightest intention of running away.
Moreover, Twilight Mist was well aware that the Castellan of Chang 'an had a special method to locate her and Chen Chaoyan. Even if she wanted to run away, she couldn't.
Inside the Daming Palace in Chang 'an, Zhang Dongyun watched them quietly through the talisman seals on their bodies.
Twilight Mist was very cautious. She only brought Chen Chaoyan to search the universe outside Flameyellow Realm.
Firstly, if the item that Mo Li had hidden was related to the Flameyellow Realm, then it should not be too far away.
Secondly, if they really found the item, it might alert and attract Mr. Fang Cun's attention.
If they were too far away from Flameyellow Realm and were intercepted by Mr. Fang Cun, it would be difficult for Chang 'an to rescue them.
If they were close enough, Zhang Dongyun could send people over if there were any strange movements.
However, this old Confucian scholar who called himself Fang Cun had a cultivation level above that of a Confucian Grandmaster. He was close to becoming a Sage.
If they really clashed head-on outside Flameyellow Realm, it would indeed be a tricky problem …
Zhang Dongyun quietly thought of a countermeasure.
After a few days, Twilight Mist and the others didn't have any good news. However, Zhang Dongyun suddenly heard a system notification in his mind.
[Host is preparing to build the sixteenth Chang 'an. Host has successfully established a relatively complete garrison system and regulated the security of various places within the sphere of influence of Chang' an. Construction Mission 11.3 completed. Reward: 7,000 construction experience points.]
Hearing this system notification, Zhang Dongyun let out a satisfied sigh.
The Left and Right Guards, the Left and Right Valiant Guards, the Left and Right Wu Guards, the Left and Right Prestige Guards, the Left and Right Golden Guards, the Left and Right Leading Guards, the Left and Right Prison Guards, the Left and Right Thousand-Bull Guards … The sixteen guards of Chang 'an had already been set up. Now that they were expanded again, they finally met the requirements of the system.
The current sixteen guards of Chang 'an, in addition to the original foundation of the Dong Sheng Divine Continent, had further integrated the manpower of the Aparagodaniya Continent and the North Continent.
It wasn't just the human soldiers, but also a large number of small demons of the Nanzhan Department Continent.
Zhang Dongyun did not mistreat the demons who had sincerely pledged their allegiance and obeyed the rules. He treated them with the same benevolence as the human race.
The demons not only served as soldiers, but the small demons who performed well during Lou Ning's integration and expansion process were also promoted to sergeant, sergeant, or even captain.
"Well done."
Zhang Dongyun looked at Lou Ning, who had rushed back to report on his work, and nodded with satisfaction.
"I have followed Your Majesty's instructions." Lou Ning bowed his head and answered.
To be honest, Emperor Yin, who used to be one of the six great human emperors of the Dong Sheng Divine Continent, did not have a good impression of the demons.
His Great Yin Empire was located in the southeast of the Central Plains, across the sea from the Dong Sheng Divine Continent's Southern Wilderness.
Every few days, there would be demons or demon cultivators from the Southern Wilderness causing trouble in the north.
Lou Ning had personally killed countless demons from the Southern Wilderness, not to mention his subordinates in the Yin Empire.
On the other hand, many civilians and cultivators of the Yin Empire had also died under the claws of the demons from the Southern Wilderness.
The founding of the Great Yin Empire was due to the contributions of Lao Zhenyuan, King Tao Wu. Therefore, the Yin Empire was relatively more lenient towards demon cultivators.
To the demons, there was only the relationship of being hunted and killed by the other party.
It was true that the demons of the Southern Wilderness of the Dong Sheng Divine Continent and the Nanzhan Section Continent had bowed their heads to Chang 'an and submitted to Zhang Dongyun. However, their conflict and friction with the humans under Chang' an had never ceased.
However, regardless of whether they were demons or humans, everyone maintained restraint to prevent internal friction from affecting the rise of Chang 'an.
The current situation was more complicated.
Demons and humans fought side by side against external enemies. Their relationship gradually eased and they formed some camaraderie.
This was an important foundation for the demons to join the army in Chang 'an's 16 Guards.
However, compared to the army and the frontlines, the internal conflicts between some demons and humans under Chang 'an's were gradually becoming more intense.
As Chang 'an gradually unified Yan Huang, the external enemies were temporarily eliminated. Internal conflicts naturally arose.
To a certain extent, the expansion of Chang 'an's 16 Guards was already suppressing this trend. Otherwise, it would be even more obvious.
Lou Ning, as the host, had the most credit.
He had completely suppressed his hatred for the demons. As Zhang Dongyun's executor and spokesperson, he had completed the mission to the letter. All his actions were based on the rise of Chang 'an.
The completion of this mission was not purely for the sake of the System.
It was helpful for the stability of the entire territory under Chang 'an's rule.
This included the territory outside of Invincible City.
Zhang Dongyun refreshed the System's mission list and immediately saw a new construction mission.
[Construction Mission 11.4 — Invincible City's coverage is rapidly expanding. Its influence has spread to the Nanzhan Section Continent and the North Continent. It has a vast territory and a large population. City Lord, please increase the literary talent level of the people under your rule and reduce the illiteracy rate to below 10%.]
Slowly, Zhang Dongyun nodded. "There is indeed such a mission."
Fortunately, he had asked Shen Herong to prepare beforehand.
It seemed that he had not met the System's requirements yet. However, by preparing in advance, he believed that he could save a lot of time.
"Big Brother, are you looking for me?"
Shen Herong was invited into the main hall.
At the same time, Zong Tianxuan came in with her.
Zhang Dongyun said, "Twelfth Sister's cultivation seems to be improving rapidly."
Shen Herong said, "Big Brother, you flatter me. Xiaomei is taking this new path, and right now I am just slowly exploring it. It cannot be considered 'fast'."
