Could the Celestial Wolf Secret Cave be a trap?
Yang Li purposely left clues as bait to observe the rest of the Twelve Kings of Hell?
This so-called Heavenly Wolf Secret Cave seemed to be even more complicated than he had originally thought.
Although Blood Shadow and the others didn't succeed in bringing back the fragments of the Immortals, Zhang Dongyun wasn't discouraged.
He stroked the wolf skin and the pitch-black pearl with his fingers as a faint smile appeared on his face.
With his authority in the city, he could use these two items to try to find Yang Li's whereabouts.
As long as the shell is here, I can find you, the cicada.
However, Zhang Dongyun couldn't leave the city right now. If he acted rashly, he might alert the enemy.
Right now, there might be another way to find Yang Li.
Zhang Dongyun pondered as he listened to Blood Shadow's report.
"Thanks to Your Majesty's authority, I was lucky enough to obtain the Celestial Wolf Demon Soul and then took the fur and stone slab from Fuzhen Guan."
It was also because of this head-on clash that Blood Shadow, Chen Jiezhi, Guo Zi, and the others paid a heavy price and were later hunted down.
"Unexpectedly, Mirror Moon Tower and Qingbokgung suddenly attacked Fuzhen Guan. Fuzhen Guan couldn't stop us, but the two sects sent people to pursue us."
Blood Shadow said with hatred.
"One of them was from the Green Cloud Temple. According to Chen Jiezhi, the little cow-nose was originally a disciple of the Green Cloud Temple, but was later expelled.
It was only because of the Eastern Tang royalty that he didn't get expelled by the Green Cloud Temple and eventually joined the Secret Pavilion and became one of the three Great Reverends. "
"Since Yang Li isn't here, I can't blame you for returning empty-handed."
Zhang Dongyun said calmly.
Old Demon Blood Shadow heaved a long sigh of relief, the rock in his heart finally falling to the ground.
At this moment, warm sunlight suddenly fell on his body.
Old Demon Blood Shadow was instantly stunned.
This was because he discovered that the injuries he had sustained when fighting against Fuzhen Guan and Qingbokgung had healed in an instant.
Of course, Blood Shadow knew that His Majesty was capable of this.
But he didn't expect that happiness would come so quickly.
For a moment, the Old Devil's heart ached.
"Thank you for your kindness, Your Majesty. This old servant doesn't deserve such praise." Blood Shadow was so excited that he prostrated himself on the ground.
"Do your job well." Zhang Dongyun's tone was calm.
"Yes, Your Majesty!" Blood Shadow said in a deep voice, "This old servant is willing to die for you!"
Blood Shadow's heart was filled with gloom when he saw Mr. Dark Cloud attack.
But at this moment, the haze in his heart was completely gone, and he regained his lofty aspirations.
As long as His Majesty still trusts me, I have the hope of turning defeat into victory!
Your current strength is indeed superior, but that is because you have followed His Majesty for a longer period of time.
One day, I will surpass you and become His Majesty's most trusted aide!
A journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step. Let's start with the first step …
Blood Shadow's heart was filled with fighting spirit as he pondered and spoke.
"There is one more thing to report to Your Majesty. This time, this old servant discovered a little girl in Fuzhen Guan. Her talent in Taoist cultivation is even better than that of Madam Chen's daughter.
Fuzhen Guan sees her as their future hope, but hasn't taken her in yet. This old servant specially brought her back to offer her to Your Majesty so that she can serve Your Majesty. "
"There's no hurry."
Zhang Dongyun's tone was calm.
Blood Shadow naturally didn't dare to rush him, and hurriedly replied, "Yes, Your Majesty's command will be obeyed."
"You can be a little lenient on the people who are going with you this time," Zhang Dongyun instructed.
Blood Shadow was delighted. "Yes, Your Majesty!"
The first thought in his mind was that His Majesty was going to balance things.
At present, in Chang 'an, the Chen family, the Hanshan school, the Perak Dynasty, and so on were used to following Mr. Dark Cloud's orders.
Towards Old Demon Blood Shadow, he was more fearful.
It seemed that His Majesty felt that Dark Cloud had been too domineering recently, so he wanted to teach him a lesson.
Blood Shadow came out of the Daming Palace, went down the stairs happily, and came to Mr. Dark Cloud and the others.
He immediately found that Chen Jiezhi, Guo Zi, and the others' injuries were the same as his. They had completely recovered.
"Needless to say, it must be His Majesty's doing …" Blood Shadow thought to himself.
He coughed dryly and said, "His Majesty has ordered that this time we went to Fuzhen Guan and successfully captured the Demon Soul of the Sirius.
But we can't be arrogant because of this. We should work harder and be loyal to His Majesty. "
Chen Jiezhi, Guo Zi, and the others all breathed a sigh of relief.
Just now, when they were waiting on the stairs, the rain suddenly fell from the sky, and then everyone's injuries were healed. It was better than the best panacea they knew.
At this time, after hearing Blood Shadow's clear explanation, everyone knew that this mission was not a failure.
"Thank you, Your Majesty." Everyone bowed to the Daming Palace in the air.
Blood Shadow looked at Mr. Dark Cloud and said, "His Majesty wants to see you."
Mr. Dark Cloud looked calm as usual. He nodded, took the Yunluo cover from Chen Chaoyan, and went up the stairs step by step.
Chen Jiezhi, Guo Zi, Hui Tianyu, and the others looked at his back with envy.
His Majesty didn't blame them for this mission, so everyone was relieved.
But it would be even better if they could get the chance to see His Majesty in person.
Blood Shadow looked at Mr. Dark Cloud's calm posture and couldn't help laughing in his heart. The other party was pretending to be calm.
But on second thought, he suddenly felt that something was wrong.
With His Majesty's remarkable power and authority, did he need to play with the balance between the monarch and his subjects?
Which subject could deceive him?
If he was really dissatisfied with someone, wouldn't he just slap them to death?
His Majesty had asked him to encourage Chen Jiezhi and the others, not to beat down Mr. Dark Cloud. It might just be a casual order.
Just now, he had recklessly speculated about His Majesty's thoughts, which was the most heinous crime!
The Old Devil, who had come to his senses, broke out in a cold sweat.
Blood Shadow's imagination almost scared him to death.
Zhang Dongyun didn't have time to pay attention to him.
The so-called summoning of Mr. Dark Cloud was actually just for show.
He was mainly using Mr. Dark Cloud's identity to interrogate the captives this time and get the information he wanted.
The main point was why these people other than Fuzhen Guan had also gone to the Sirius Secret Cave.
The traitor of Green Cloud Temple, Gu Hechuan of the Secret Pavilion, had actually come outside the city because the commander of the Secret Pavilion, Phantom, had been lost in Chang 'an City.
He hid outside and didn't approach immediately. He had planned to observe carefully.
However, when Blood Shadow and the others went out, his interest was piqued. He secretly followed them and went to the Sirius Secret Cave.
Qingbokgung and Mirror Moon Tower had heard the news and suspected that Fuzhen Guan had found secret treasures in the secret cave, so they also went over to get a share of the loot.
It was worth mentioning that Qingbokgung's information was said to have come from the Eastern Tang royalty.
Among the four Taoist Holy Lands, they had always been closer to the Eastern Tang royalty. Qingbokgung's leader was the current Eastern Tang Imperial Tutor.
Faced with this information, Zhang Dongyun fell into deep thought.
After a while, he came back to his senses. He controlled the projection of Mr. Dark Cloud to go out of the palace and return to the crowd.
"His Majesty has given the order. Everyone else can leave."
Mr. Dark Cloud looked at the girl. "This little girl …"
Chen Chaoyan held the girl's hand. She had become familiar with her after a while. She answered for him, "Senior, her name is Ming Yixue."
Mr. Dark Cloud nodded. "Ming Yixue. His Majesty summons her."
The girl was smart, but she was also a little timid at this moment. She grabbed Chen Chaoyan's hand. "I … I'm alone?"
Mr. Dark Cloud nodded calmly.
Blood Shadow said, "This is your good fortune. It's the blessing of several lifetimes."
Chen Chaoyan helped the girl tidy her clothes. "Although His Majesty is dignified and majestic, he's not a scary person. Look at the people in this city. They can live a good life because of His Majesty's kindness."
The girl hesitated for a while and nodded.
Mr. Dark Cloud waved his sleeve, rolled her up, and flew into the sky.
Blood Shadow's expression was serious, and there was a hint of expectation in his eyes.
Mr. Dark Cloud took the girl into the Daming Palace. They walked around and came to the central hall.
After entering the hall, Mr. Dark Cloud disappeared, leaving her alone.
The girl was a little nervous and didn't dare to look up at the person sitting above.
The figure above also didn't speak.
The hall was silent. It was so oppressive that it made people panic.
As time passed, the girl's uneasy and nervous expression became more and more obvious.
In the end, it was as if a string had snapped. Teardrops kept falling from his eyes.
She was scared and panicked. Her tears fell like rain, but she didn't dare to make a sound.
Zhang Dongyun looked at her quietly and still didn't speak.
After a while, the girl's tears suddenly stopped.
Her young face was calm and serene.
After wiping away her tears, her eyes were no longer childlike. Instead, they were clear and distant like lake water.
"Brother, we haven't seen each other for 30 years."
The girl smiled. "You're as elegant as you were in the past."
