When Meng Zhang heard the news, his first reaction was to ask Shuangfenggu for help.
But then, I felt that it was of little use.
It was more than two years after the incident that Qingzhushan took action against the Taiyi Sect. It was considered to have given Shuangfenggu enough face, and it was obvious that it did not want to have a large-scale conflict with Shuangfenggu.
You can only commit a thief in a thousand days, but there is no way to guard against a thief in a thousand days.
Even if this time Meng Zhang asked Shuangfenggu to come forward and stop Qingzhushan's actions. But what about next time?
It is impossible for Shuangfeng Valley to keep blocking Qingzhu Mountain for the sake of Taiyi Sect.
If you defend for a long time, you will lose. Taiyimen will be attacked by Qingzhushan if you are not careful.
The initiative is in other people's hands, and it is up to them to decide when they want to take action.
Meng Zhang regretted a little. He had underestimated a force like Qingzhushan and left too many tricks behind his actions.
Qingzhushan's revengeful spirit was beyond Meng Zhang's expectation. And Meng Zhang had overestimated the power of Shuangfenggu as a deterrent.
If Qingzhu Mountain really wiped out the Taiyi Sect, would Shuangfeng Valley still start a war with Qingzhu Mountain over a mere Taiyi Sect? Even if Shuangfenggu wants to do this, Feihong Sect will not let it do whatever it wants.
The level was still too low, and Meng Zhang had misjudged the behavior and methods of these powerful forces in the world of cultivation. Not to mention the true relationship between the various cultivation forces under the rule of Feihong Sect.
If Jueying hadn't come to report this time, the Taiyi Sect might have been destroyed.
Jueying analyzed Meng Zhang, and Meng Zhang discovered his previous omissions.
Of course, Meng Zhang always felt that he had done nothing wrong in recruiting monks from the Yang family. Apart from anything else, Yang Xueyi's talent and beauty alone are worth taking huge risks.
His only mistake was to underestimate Qingzhushan and not take more prudent measures to rescue the Yang family members.
Now that Qingzhushan is going to destroy Taiyi Sect, Taiyi Sect will never sit still and wait for death.
In fact, Meng Zhang was very lucky. Due to changes in the Mirage Secret Realm, which will be opened in more than a month, much earlier than before, Qingzhu Mountain cannot take care of the Taiyi Sect for the time being.
For Qingzhu Mountain, the secret realm of mirage opens once every hundred years, and there are too many opportunities and benefits in it. The importance of a mere Taiyi Sect cannot be compared at all.
The elite team that Qingzhushan originally planned to use to sneak attack Taiyimen had to be used in the secret realm of mirage first.
In fact, a secret mirage realm opens every hundred years or so. Every time it is opened, it is a rare opportunity for many cultivation forces in the endless sand sea.
With such a period of buffering, Meng Zhang had more time to adapt.
Meng Zhang thought for a long time and discussed it with Jueying before making a decision.
Meng Zhang decided to take a preemptive strike and disrupt Qingzhushan's arrangement.
Meng Zhang already had a simple plan. However, to realize this plan, strong enough combat power is needed. Among them, at least two monks at the foundation-building stage are required.
The way to hire foundation-building monks from the black market was blocked, and Jueying's master Luo Ye couldn't move easily because he was trapped by demonic energy.
As for Shuangfeng Valley, let’s not talk about whether we can mobilize the foundation-building monks in Shuangfeng Valley. Meng Zhang’s actions this time must be highly confidential, and the information cannot be leaked easily.
Meng Zhang called the Houtu God General in front of him.
"Houstu, you once broke out with a level of combat power at the foundation-building stage. Now if we give you enough stalactites, how far can you go?"
God General Houtu was silent for a moment before replying: "There should be no problem in suppressing ordinary monks in the early stages of foundation building. It's just that the fighting time should not last too long."
Meng Zhang was very satisfied with Houtu's reply.
Currently, there is still a lack of combat effectiveness at the foundation-building stage.
When making this plan, Meng Zhang had a plan in mind.
Leaving Jueying behind in Taiyi Gate, Meng Zhang hurried to Mingshafang City to meet Shi Weiming.
When Shi Weiming saw Meng Zhang, his face was filled with joy: "Master Meng, have you changed your mind and are you ready to go to the Mirage Secret Realm?"
In the past two years, Shi Weiming visited Taiyimen many times, trying to persuade Meng Zhang to change his mind and go to the Mirage Secret Realm to collect elixirs. But every time, Meng Zhang politely refused.
As the time for the opening of the Mirage Secret Realm slowly approached, Shi Weiming became very anxious. Now that Meng Zhang appeared in front of him, he thought Meng Zhang had changed his mind.
Meng Zhang shook his head slowly and said: "Brother Shi, I still say the same thing, I will not enter the secret realm of the mirage. I came here this time because I have something urgent to ask Brother Shi for help."
Shi Weiming was very disappointed and asked listlessly: "If you have anything to do with Master Meng, please tell me directly. As long as I can do it, there will never be any ambiguity."
"I want to borrow a manpower from Brother Shi to help entangle a foundation-building elder in Qingzhu Mountain." Meng Zhang directly stated his purpose without going around in circles.
"No, no, absolutely not. I have already said that we just want to do business in peace and peace of mind, and we will never get involved in the grudge disputes between your local sects." After hearing Meng Zhang's request, Shi Weiming couldn't help but He stopped and shook his head.
"Moreover, our group is weak, how can we compete with the foundation-building elders of Qingzhu Mountain."
Meng Zhang smiled and said, "Let's be honest, I want to ask Senior Gu Tanghai for help this time."
"With the close relationship between you, this request is not difficult to fulfill."
"How do you know the relationship between Gu Tanghai and us?" Shi Weiming's face immediately darkened.
Meng Zhang smiled and said nothing, looking very mysterious.
Last time, Shi Weiming introduced Gu Dashan, Gu Tanghai's nephew, as a witness to the fight between the Taiyi Sect and the Zhao family. Meng Zhang took advantage of Gu Dashan's unpreparedness, used his telepathy to read his mind, and learned a secret.
It turns out that Gu Dashan and his family have an inseparable relationship with Shi Weiming and his gang, and they all belong to the same secret force.
As for the information about this force, Gu Dashan hid it very deep in his heart, and Meng Zhang could not read it.
Now, Meng Zhang is also using his mind to read Shi Weiming's thoughts. Although he was unable to read too deep thoughts, some superficial thoughts could not be hidden from Meng Zhang's eyes.
Seeing Meng Zhang's enigmatic look, Shi Weiming was silent for a while and then said, "I don't know where Master Meng knew about this matter. Please keep it a secret for us."
"If Head Meng wants to blackmail us with this matter, then Head Meng has made the wrong idea."
"Presumably, Master Meng doesn't want to have another enemy."
"I have no intention of threatening you, Brother Shi is overthinking," Meng Zhang said seriously.
"My little brother just wants a fair deal."
