"Did I really make the right bet, or does King Xiaoyao have other agendas? I have unraveled everything in the ghost city and clarified the relationship with the Dark Continent. However, he not only named himself the general of the Iron-Blooded Legion, but also appointed him as the archer. Does the first deputy city lord of Riju City really value himself? It is inevitable that King Xiaoyao has seen through my true combat power, so it is reasonable to cherish my talent. But Sunju City has now become the leader of the battle against the Dark Continent. On the front line, I am not clear with the Dark Continent. Isn’t he afraid that he will defect in front of the battle? And I am now a common enemy of Hezhou. Isn’t he afraid that after the incident is revealed, all forces will attack the Fire Empire? Could it be... "Thinking of this, Zhou Yang felt a chill in his heart.
Because there is still more than a year before the trialists of Jiuyou City can come out. Could it be that his status as general and deputy city lord is only limited during this period? And when the time comes, hand yourself over under the pressure of various forces?
It's definitely a possibility.
If this is the case, then after getting the follow-up skills, should I consider joining the army of darkness?
As a member of his own clan, he must be welcomed by the top leaders of the dark army. However, he would not choose this path unless he had to.
"Perhaps King Xiaoyao has other back-ups."
He even passed on his superb Qi-containing and disguise skills to himself, which naturally meant to protect himself.
"King Xiaoyao gave me the Qi Condensation and Disguise Technique as a gift. Should I use it before entering Sheri City, or on the way to Dingbei?" Thinking of the Disguise Technique, Zhou Yang then thought about this issue.
It stands to reason that he returned to the Iron-Blooded Legion in an upright manner. Many people have seen it. The news of his early return to the Fire Empire must not be sealed. It doesn't make much difference when he uses the Qi Condensation and Disguise Techniques.
Moreover, the ghost town is isolated from the outside world, and the news inside should not be spread. No one will know that he has become a common enemy of Hezhou.
Even if he hadn't killed eight hundred golden elixirs in the ghost city, he was already the enemy of several superpowers in Suiling City. Maybe King Xiaoyao considered this from this aspect.
The thoughts of a strong person in the divine realm are difficult to fathom, and their methods are endless. Moreover, there is also a Tea King in Sheri City. This person's cultivation level is higher than that of Xiaoyao King, so he should be careful.
"That's all, King Xiaoyao's attitude has been verified before, so let's not create any more complications." After making up his mind, Zhou Yang began to practice this Qi gathering technique in the battleship.
This god-level qi secret technique is very mysterious. If it is mastered, with his current level of cultivation, even a strong person in the quasi-god realm will not be able to see the true state. If his cultivation goes further and reaches the perfection of the golden elixir, even the strong ones in the early stage of Virtual God will have difficulty in distinguishing it.
Because he had to practice, Zhou Yang did not increase the speed of the ship to the maximum, so it took more than a day to arrive at Sheri City.
If he wants to return to Dingbei, he must use the super teleportation array in Sheri City.
"Senior, may I ask who your sect is, where you come from, and why you want to enter Sheri City? Please show your identity token!" In front of the majestic gate of Sheri City, there are a large number of city guards guarding it. When a centurion saw Zhou Yang walking towards him, he hurriedly and cautiously stepped forward to ask questions.
Zhou Yang did not hide his aura, and his cultivation in the later stages of Jin Dan was undoubtedly revealed.
This centurion is only at the peak level of Tianyuan, but due to his responsibilities, he must step forward to interrogate and verify his identity token before he can pass.
Behind the table under the city gate, there was a chief flag officer in the middle stage of Jindan who was closing his eyes and concentrating. However, Zhou Yang's aura instantly alarmed him, and he couldn't help but stand up suddenly, his eyes full of solemnity.
Although his cultivation level is not as good as Zhou Yang's, this is Sheri City. Needless to say, he is in the late stage of Jindan. Even a perfect master must follow the rules.
However, such a thing as guarding the gate actually requires a master of the golden elixir to be in charge. It seems that the situation here is really tense.
"General of the Iron-Blooded Legion, general!" The centurion couldn't help but screamed as he scanned the token with his consciousness.
"Zhou Yang? You're not..." The chief flag officer also knew about his affairs and couldn't help but frowned. He reached out to take the token and looked around several times.
"What, is there something wrong with the token?" Zhou Yang said calmly.
"The token has the special mark of the empire. It is true and cannot be faked. However, the generals of the Iron-Blooded Legion are all in the realm of perfect golden elixir, but with Zhou Daoyou's cultivation level..." The general flag officer had no intention of letting it go.
"Check it carefully with your spiritual sense." Zhou Yang reminded lightly, not in a hurry.
The chief flag officer was stunned for a moment, and then all of his spiritual consciousness in the middle stage of the golden elixir penetrated into the token.
"Huh? This seems to be a fluctuation of divine power! Moreover, there is also the aura of a powerful person in the divine realm! This is... the mark of divine consciousness of Prince Xiaoyao!" The chief flag officer showed a look of surprise on his face, and then handed the token with both hands. Xiang Zhou Yang.
If he knew that Zhou Yang was also appointed as the first deputy city lord of Sheri City, his expression would be even richer.
Although King Xiaoyao has issued the appointment, it still requires the approval of the Tea King, so the identity of the first deputy city lord has not yet been determined.
"Yes. By the way, has the army of darkness invaded Sheri City again during this period?" Zhou Yang asked after taking the token.
"Oh, that's not true. However, a large number of masters once sneaked into the city. After being discovered, they were all killed. However, the city defense formation was also damaged in several places. It was quite troublesome to repair, so the four gates all sent more experts. There are many golden elixir cultivators on guard." The chief flag official replied respectfully.
"I see. Well, you guys get busy." Zhou Yang nodded and strode towards the city.
"Best farewell to General Zhou!" the general flag officer clasped his fists to send him off.
"Alas, Chihu and Bailan will have to wait another year before they can come back. I don't know how they are doing now!" Zhou Yang thought of the two spiritual beasts and really missed them.
The city is very lively, business is booming, and there are many practitioners. It is very different from the tense atmosphere at the city gate.
He didn't want to be too arrogant, so he didn't fly in the air. Instead, he bought a spiritual beast from a shop in the city and galloped all the way to the city lord's palace.
"Wu Ji Tang!" Passing by Zhong Street, Zhou Yang saw these three gilded characters at a glance and hurriedly restrained the spirit beast.
This is a three-story shop, about the same size as Fei Lao's Xingshan Hall in Anping City. Zhou Yang got off the spirit beast and went straight into the shop.
"Senior, what are your orders?" A man who looked like a manager came up to him, but he realized that Zhou Yang's aura was stronger than that of the shop owner, so he bent down and said respectfully.
To say that this person's cultivation level is not bad, in the late Tianyuan realm, it is a bit unqualified to serve as a steward in a medicine shop, but he is still far behind in front of the golden elixir master.
"Oh, can the shop owner here be named Jiang?" Zhou Yang asked.
"Yes, yes, it's Senior Jiang!" The steward nodded hurriedly.
