Sister Hong gave Ye Zhongming hope, and then returned to the laboratory, where she had too many things to do.
The topics that Ye Zhongming remembered made his scalp tingle, but Liu Zhenghong seemed to enjoy every moment of it, looking quite pleased.
This must be the world of academic elites.
A few days later, the earth yellow pill that had run away returned. At first, the guards didn't even recognize it and thought it was a fierce mutated life form that had wandered in. It wasn't until they got closer that they realized it was actually the zhuang pet from Cloud Summit.
When Ye Zhongming saw the earth yellow pill, he was startled as well.
At this moment, the earth yellow pill looked nothing like a dog!
It stood there towering at three meters high and was five meters long. Its golden fur had changed to a golden-red color, resembling the surface of water under the setting sun.
Its head was enormous, with extremely sharp teeth; just slightly opening its mouth revealed a chilling gleam. The most significant change was on its forehead, where a horn had grown!
Yangos exclaimed that it was a dragon horn, a symbol of the Dragon Race!
This time, Ye Zhongming actually agreed with it. Perhaps due to essence plundering, it wasn't unreasonable for the earth yellow pill to exhibit some characteristics of the Dragon Race.
Additionally, Big Yellow's tail had also evolved. The fur on it had shortened and tightly wrapped around its thickened and elongated tail. At the tip of the tail, two diamond-shaped scales were overlapping, reflecting beautiful colors in the light.
Those eyes were also no longer the same; when it glanced around, golden-red veins were visible, extremely regular, making anyone who was being stared at by the earth yellow pill instinctively feel fear.
However, despite the changes, the earth yellow pill's personality remained the same. Upon seeing Ye Zhongming, it immediately approached him with a flattering demeanor, wagging its tail like a fan, crawling on the ground, and rubbing its big head against Ye Zhongming. It seemed like it wanted to lick him, but was stopped by its owner's glare.
Seeing the tense expression on Ye Zhongming's face, the creature cunningly glanced at Xia Lei, Liang Chuyin, and the others beside him, as if asking them to plead for it, which made Ye Zhongming roll his eyes in exasperation.
In the end, the earth yellow pill even flopped onto the ground, lying on its back, exposing its belly for Ye Zhongming to scratch... completely lacking the aura of an eighth-level life form.
Although Ye Zhongming was somewhat angry about the earth yellow pill leaving on its own, the bond between them was extraordinary. They had known each other before the apocalypse and had gone through tough times together after the apocalypse. After giving the earth yellow pill a couple of pats, Ye Zhongming forgave it.
The return of the earth yellow pill meant that Cloud Summit Villa had entered a phase of peak combat power.
In terms of eighth-level beings, there were Ye Zhongming, Red Hair, Yangos, the earth yellow pill, the Yama Tree, and the three-trunked elephant. If they added the posthumous child Hongxiang, Ling Kun, the Holy Maiden of the Temple of Dawn, and two other giants, Cloud Summit Villa had gathered more than ten evolvers just below the highest level.
The number of seventh-level life forms was even more substantial, with nearly thirty just from Cloud Summit Villa alone.
Such power, if taken outside, would shake all the forces on Earth.
However, Ye Zhongming didn’t want to be so high-profile. After all, the current strength of Cloud Summit Villa was derived partly from the two races within the Blue Secret Realm, which were not his own.
In this prosperous state, Ye Zhongming knew it was time to deal with that shadow monster.
On a sunny day, apart from a giant from the Temple of Dawn in West Asia and King Hongxiang, who stayed at the villa just in case, the other eighth-level experts mobilized and surrounded the location of the shadow.
