Chapter 233 Golden-Winged Tiger-Headed Eagle

Zhou Qing finally came to her senses at this moment.

When she learned that the Otherworldly Demon Legion had been completely wiped out by Chen Yang, her heart went numb!

Without the alien demon legion, and with her own Great Ming Kingdom having just achieved a great victory, slaughtering tens of thousands of elite cultivators from the Great Manchu Kingdom, she was absolutely certain she could completely drive the Great Manchu cavalry out of Yangguan City within three months!

Zhou Qing turned to Chen Yang and said, "Chen Yang, thank you so much."

"Those spirit stones were found in Wu Gui's house. As the border commander, he has been secretly colluding with the Prime Minister's Mansion and the Great Manchu Kingdom for the past few months, accumulating a lot of wealth."

"Besides these spirit stones, he also received a high-grade spirit artifact from the Prime Minister's residence, as well as a land contract. These are all for you."

As she spoke, Zhou Qing took out a dagger and a contract and handed them to Chen Yang.

Chen Yang glanced at it and saw that the dagger was indeed a high-grade spiritual weapon, but its quality was average. Chen Yang no longer cared about it, but since it was a high-grade spiritual weapon, it could still be sold for around ten thousand spirit stones.

That contract was a land deed for a vast area of ​​land in the capital, clearly a promise made by the Prime Minister's office to Wu Gui after the change of dynasty.

Chen Yang thought for a moment and put it away. He could use the land deed to ask the Prime Minister's Mansion for spirit stones later.

Chen Yang said to Zhou Qing, "General Zhou, I won't ask about the upcoming war between the two countries. I have my own business to attend to."

When Zhou Qing heard that Chen Yang was leaving, she was taken aback and quickly asked, "Are you leaving now? When will you come back? I was thinking of inviting you to a place to properly thank you."

Chen Yang sized up Zhou Qing.

In fact, Chen Yang was a little puzzled. After all, his eyes were now the eyes of a golden dragon, which could not only release the pressure of dragon blood, but also see through some illusions and falsehoods.

But Zhou Qing in front of me looks exactly like a human being.

But Wu Gui had previously said that she was not human, which is really strange.

Chen Yang said, "I'm going to Yangguan City and the Great Man Kingdom's royal court to take care of some things. I'll be back in a few days if things go smoothly, but it might take up to a month if things go slowly."

Hearing this, Zhou Qing breathed a sigh of relief and said with a smile, "Okay, I'll wait for you in Steel City. Maybe in a month, even Yangguan City will be our territory. I'll host a banquet for you in Yangguan City then."

Chen Yang laughed and said, "Don't be so optimistic. I just saw that a new tribal army from the Great Manchu Kingdom has joined the border."

"Furthermore, although I wiped out the alien demon legion this time, there are still other Qitian Alliance members within their Great Man Kingdom, so the number of alien demons should be quite large."

Upon hearing this, Zhou Qing's expression turned serious. She nodded and said, "Thank you for informing me, Brother Chen. However, as long as there are no strange entities like the Demon Legion in the short term, protecting Steel City is absolutely no problem."

At this moment, three old eunuchs approached. One of them bowed to Chen Yang and said, "Lord Chen, the canyon is in chaos right now. This is the perfect opportunity for us to infiltrate the Manchu caravan and enter Yangguan City. We should set off."

Chen Yang nodded, then bid farewell to Zhou Qing and the others.

The three eunuchs, Chen Yang, and Wujina rode in two carriages, which also carried a load of goods, and drove out of the Steel City and into the canyon.

This canyon is quite wide.

On the left side of the canyon, there were many chaotic caravans.

Although the two countries were at war, both sides still had a need to exchange goods, so both Manchu and Ming caravans sold their goods through this winding road.

Chen Yang and his group mingled into the chaotic caravan and quickly made their way to Yangguan City along the trade route.

Inside the car, Ujina looked at Chen Yang strangely and said, "Chen Yang, don't we have that big bird?"

"We can just fly directly to Yangguan City on the big bird, why do we have to bring those three eunuchs with us?"

Chen Yang glared at Ujina and said, "You don't know anything. Without these three people, I wouldn't be able to find a place to get spirit stones in Yangguan City. Besides, you have no right to look down on these three people, after all, you are a treacherous person who doesn't keep his word."

Ujina was taken aback, then asked angrily, "Who broke their promise? When have I ever lied to you?"

Chen Yang immediately said, "You still say you didn't? Didn't you promise me last night that you'd agree to eat if I kissed you?"

"But I kept my promise and taught you, yet you broke your promise. Aren't you being untrustworthy?"

Ujina blushed with sullenness upon hearing this. She glared at Chen Yang, pouted, and said aggrievedly, "You're so mean! Humph, I... I've seen that terrifying creature before, how could I dare touch it?"

Chen Yang chuckled and said, "Anyway, you promised. In short, if you don't keep your promise, you're a scoundrel, and I'll never teach you how to kiss again."

Ujina covered her face with both hands, spat a few times, and said, "You scoundrel, stop talking. Let me mentally prepare myself."

Chen Yang nodded, then stepped out of the carriage and leaped onto the black iron griffin.

The black iron griffin soared into the sky!

Seeing Chen Yang run off, Ujina quickly chased after him, shouting, "Hey! Aren't you taking me with you? Are you really angry?"

Seeing that Chen Yang was ignoring her, Ujina returned to the carriage dejectedly, crossed her arms, and muttered, "Could it be that Chen Yang is really angry?"

"Perhaps this matter is important to him? In that case, I'll try to overcome my fear tonight?"

Once Chen Yang was on the bird's back, he checked his system panel.

At this point, he had 250,000 spirit stones remaining, and a full eight fragments of the Otherworld Source.

Chen Yang no longer hesitated; he was eager to see what kind of upgrade his eyes could undergo.

[Ding! You have consumed 100,000 spirit stones and one fragment of another dimension! Your Golden Dragon Eye has been upgraded to the Evil-Slaying Thunder Dragon Eye!]

Chen Yang felt a strong electric current surge through his eyes, so powerful that it almost knocked him unconscious.

Five minutes later, Chen Yang opened his eyes again.

This time, the world before his eyes was clearer, and at the same time, Chen Yang could clearly feel that there was a domain-like existence in front of him, with exceptionally active lightning elements flashing around him, and he could easily control all the lightning elements in this domain.

"Is this what it feels like for a Foundation Establishment cultivator to control their domain?" Chen Yang had a sudden realization.

Chen Yang felt that with just a thought, he could suddenly unleash the Evil-Slaying Lightning from his eyes, and the power of this lightning was even stronger than the Purple Lightning Refining God Technique he cultivated!

Chen Yang stroked his chin. Although his eyesight had improved, he had just spent 100,000 spirit stones.

That's too expensive!

The price-performance ratio is... so-so.

Chen Yang then looked at the black iron griffin beneath him.

He maneuvered the Black Iron Griffin to a stop on a boulder, and once it was stable, Chen Yang chose to upgrade immediately.

[Ding! Consuming 80,000 spirit stones and two fragments of another dimension! Your Black Iron Griffin has been upgraded to a Golden Armored Tiger-Headed Eagle!]

The next moment, the black iron griffin beside Chen Yang began to tremble incessantly.

Soon, its black iron armor slowly changed, turning into a light golden yellow.

At the same time, its previous bird beak transformed into a huge tiger's head, with the character "王" (king) above it, clearly indicating that it was a mountain king!

The black iron griffin quickly transformed into a flying behemoth with a tiger's head, an eagle's body, lion's claws, and golden wings!

Chen Yang experienced the strength of the tiger-headed eagle and couldn't help but be overjoyed.

The tiger-headed eagle before him, clad in golden armor, was as powerful as his own puppet beast!

In other words, its physical strength and defense have reached the Foundation Establishment Realm, and now its attack power has also become formidable. The ferocious mountain tiger head has an incredibly terrifying bite force!

Its combat power has surpassed that of a single black-armored puppet soldier, and it is enough to contend with five black-armored puppets!

However, its inability to use weapons is a drawback.

Those 80,000 spirit stones were totally worth it!

In comparison, upgrading my own eyes seems a bit pointless.

Chen Yang checked and found that to upgrade the Tiger-Headed Eagle again, he would need to consume four Otherworldly Source Fragments and 800,000 spirit stones.

To upgrade one's eyes, two Otherworldly Source Fragments and one million Spirit Stones are required.

Chen Yang felt a pang of heartache upon seeing this.

That's a tenfold increase!

Chen Yang jumped onto the golden-armored tiger-headed eagle, swooped down, and quickly returned to the carriage.

Inside the carriage, when Ujina saw Chen Yang return, she immediately ran up to him and hugged his arm. She said, "Chen Yang, Chen Yang, don't be angry. How about this, tonight I'll give you a thorough bath, wash that area clean, and then I'll try again, okay?"
