Zhou Yang also has another hidden worry, and that is after the trial period in Jiuyou Ghost City ends.
What he did in the ghost city has long been regarded as a traitor by the Hezhou factions, and he is the common enemy of the entire cultivation world. There is less than a year left. When the time comes, will the Fire Empire still support him in the face of huge pressure?
But judging from the current situation, King Xiaoyao really values him and is likely to protect him. However, it is only possible.
"Let's take it one step at a time. If it doesn't work, we can find a way to go to the Dark Continent." Things that were very repulsive before have become a little looser now.
After breaking through to the demigod realm, Zhou Yang's cultivation and physical body have increased significantly. Although there is little divine power in his body, his cultivation has been qualitatively strengthened.
With a single movement of his hand, he can stir up the wind and clouds, flatten giant mountains, and even slaughter a large city effortlessly. Now, he already has the demeanor of a cultivating master.
But what made him depressed was that, in addition to the greatly increased soul power, the prototype of the soul becoming more solid, and transforming into the real soul, the intensity of the consciousness did not change at all, and was still infinitely close to 80,000 miles.
Eighty thousand miles is the limit of the early spiritual consciousness of False God. If you don't break through the realm of False God, you can't break through 80,000 miles anyway.
On the second day, in the meeting hall of the city lord's palace, King Xiaoyao was sitting in the middle. Linghu Jun and other demigods and a group of golden elixirs were lined up on the left and right. Zhou Yang was naturally present, sitting at the bottom of the demigods.
At this time, Zhou Yang stood upright with his head held high, and his demi-god aura was fully displayed. The eyes of the golden elixirs looked at him with respect, which was the respect for the strong and the yearning for higher cultivation.
Except for Linghu Jun, the demigod masters showed no expressions, and some demigods who were not familiar with Zhou Yang showed disdain.
"The God Emperor has issued a decree!" King Xiaoyao suddenly stood up and said solemnly.
"Long live the God Emperor, long live, long live!" Everyone bowed and shouted in unison.
"Removing Zhou Yang from the post of General of the Iron-Blooded Legion and Deputy City Lord of Shooting Sun Giant City..." After saying this, King Xiaoyao paused slightly, looked at everyone, and then continued after a moment: "Promoted him to be the Deputy Commander-in-Chief of the Iron-Blooded Legion. Under the wind, this is a metaphor!"
"What? Deputy Commander, it's just him!" Several demigods were stunned, and then their faces were filled with anger. A newly promoted demigod, what qualifications does he have to serve as the deputy commander of the Iron-Blooded Legion, and he is also the second-ranked deputy commander!
Feng Jue is the first deputy commander, who is in the quasi-god realm. After Feng Jue, there are two deputy commanders, both of whom are veteran quasi-god realm masters, following Xiaoyao King Rijiu.
"General, I'd like to thank you!" Zhou Yang was stunned for a moment, then took a step forward and bowed in thanks.
To the God-Emperor, one should call himself the last general to show respect for the Emperor. But in front of King Xiaoyao, just call him a subordinate.
But he never expected that the God Emperor would issue a decree to promote himself so quickly, but he had not yet made much contribution to the empire!
"My lord, how virtuous and capable is this boy, and how much contribution has he made to the empire?" One of the four elites of the empire, a demigod from the Jingbian Army, bowed his hand to King Xiaoyao, his face full of dissatisfaction.
"Yes, Your Majesty, although Zhou Yang has also broken through to Demigod, he has only grasped the surface of some divine power. He is still far behind Feng Jue and other seniors. What qualifications does he have to serve as the second deputy commander?" A member of the Iron-Blooded Legion The demigod looked at Zhou Yang with a very unkind look.
Several other demigods also had angry looks on their faces, obviously very dissatisfied with the empire's appointment.
"Everyone, please be patient!" King Xiaoyao waved his hand and said solemnly: "This time, His Majesty the God Emperor issued a decree to promote Zhou Yang to be the deputy commander. Firstly, his strength has already caught up with the divine realm and he is qualified for the position. Secondly, He does not station troops, but is only sent to the Heavenly Army Alliance as an observer to show equality of status."
In order to jointly fight against the dark army, the Heavenly Army Alliance dispatched observation envoys, also known as liaison officers, to all major superpowers. They are all deputy commanders of each large legion under the jurisdiction of the Heavenly Army. Zhou Yang serves as the observer of the Heavenly Army Alliance. Naturally, he cannot still hold the rank of general. He must be promoted to deputy commander in order to have the same status.
Originally, a general town was a legion, but the Iron-Blooded Legion was made up of more than one general town. Instead, it was composed of nine general towns, with a strength of nine million troops, stationed in three places. It was a very large legion, and its commander was the supreme leader.
Each large legion under the Heavenly Army Alliance is composed of five general towns, that is, five million Tianyuan armies. The highest leader is also the commander-in-chief, assisted by two deputy commanders.
Each small and medium-sized legion of the Heavenly Army is composed of one to four headquarters, with a strength of one to four million. The highest leader can be a commander-in-chief or a general. Each general town is led by a general. The general town has ten military towns under its jurisdiction, and each town has a deputy general who serves as the commander of the army.
The organization of the Dark Army is slightly different from that of Hezhou. One of their general towns is a legion. Compared to Hezhou, it is a small legion. It has ten towns under its jurisdiction, that is, one million people. The highest leader is called the Grand Commander. For example, the 16th Dark Legion stationed in the northern area of Hezhou is the strength of a general town.
The general rank of the Dark Empire is also different from that of Hezhou. It is only awarded to masters of the divine realm. According to the realm, they are divided into imperial generals, early virtual gods; imperial generals, middle virtual gods; imperial generals, late virtual gods. The Imperial General is also nominally the commander-in-chief of the entire Imperial Army, with only three members.
Of course, the only person who actually controls the imperial army is the emperor himself.
At this time, everyone heard that Zhou Yang was not fulfilling his actual duties, and they felt a little more balanced, but they were still a little dissatisfied.
You can take up the empty post of deputy commander. Why do you still rank so high!
Zhou Yang didn't care that he was not the deputy commander, but the appointment of the Sky Army Alliance's observer made his heart skip a beat. In the ghost city, he had killed the demigod masters of the Sky Army Alliance. Where would he be serving here? , if the matter is exposed, isn't this looking for death?
King Xiaoyao glanced at Zhou Yang meaningfully, and then nodded.
Zhou Yang bowed again.
King Xiaoyao appeased everyone a few more words and discussed a few things, and the meeting broke up.
After leaving the city lord's palace, Zhou Yang and the Dingbei fleet set sail immediately, aiming for Xindu City in the south.
With King Xiaoyao's warrant and his own identity, the journey went smoothly. With frequent use of large teleportation arrays, they quickly reached their destination.
"My subordinates see you, deputy commander!" Feng Ce, the lord of Xindu City, with white hair flying and sharp eyes, immediately gave Zhou Yang a standard military salute after receiving the order from King Xiaoyao.
His previous military position was deputy general, so he naturally had to salute the deputy commander of the Iron-Blooded Legion. Moreover, Zhou Yang's demigod aura was undoubtedly revealed, far exceeding the peak state of his late Golden Core.
Feng Ce also has another identity, the brother of Feng Jue, the first deputy commander of the Iron-Blooded Legion.
"Lord Feng City, no courtesy. Zhou brought a group of fellow disciples here and caused trouble to the City Lord!" Zhou Yang said politely.
"Don't worry, Deputy Commander Zhou, my subordinates have already designated a territory for the Deputy Commander's colleagues to use. If you have other requests, you can also put them forward."
"Well, that's very good. Then please ask Lord Feng City to arrange it."
"yes."
