Meng Zhang remained silent and secretly paid attention to the others.
Although the True Lord Yuanshen, nicknamed Lao Dao and Mu Mu, has hidden his identity, there are countless True Lords of the Soul in the area near the Jiuqu Alliance. As long as they start taking action, some clues will be revealed.
Especially the kind of Yuanshen True Lord who often fights with others and is relatively famous is even more likely to be exposed.
Meng Zhang was not very familiar with the True Lord Yuanshen in the nearby area, and only heard about it from many people. If he hadn't attended the gathering hosted by True Lord You Hongzhi last time, he would have known even fewer True Lord Yuanshen.
True Lord Red Pig and True Lord Jade Rabbit are the elders of True Lord Luoye, and Meng Zhang also does not trust them too much.
Luoye Zhenren is a trustworthy friend, but her elders are another matter.
Before taking action this time, Lord Red Pig explained various arrangements, and he seemed to be very confident. But on the battlefield, the situation is changing rapidly. Meng Zhang will never be careless, let alone entrust his own safety to others.
Seeing that the time was almost up, the Red Pig True Monarch said hello, and the five Yuanshen True Monarchs present set off together and left the cave.
True Monarch Red Pig led everyone to twist and turn in the complicated underground passages, and after going in circles for a long time, they came to the end of a passage.
Lord Red Pig asked everyone to stop and gather together. Then he took out a small leaf and waved it casually.
The leaves flew into the air, grew countless times in size, and turned into a broad veil, wrapping everyone tightly.
Out of trust in True Lord Red Pig, and because the leaf was obviously not lethal, no one, including Meng Zhang, dodge.
After being wrapped, Meng Zhang was keenly aware that he seemed to be in an independent space.
You can see the scenes outside and hear the sounds outside...
But the enclosed space seemed to be separated from the original world and had no relationship with it. All the sights and sounds here will naturally not be leaked at all.
Because True Lord Red Pig had made an explanation in advance, everyone was not in a hurry and just waited slowly.
After more than half a day, a group of people came here from the other end of the passage and appeared not far away from them.
The two leaders of this group of people were the targets of Meng Zhang's attack this time, the leaders of another faction in the Dark Alliance branch, Dong Qiang Zhenjun and White Crow Zhenjun.
Following the two True Lords of Yuanshen were five True Lords of Jindan. One of them turned out to be Meng Zhang’s old acquaintance, Master Black Fox.
After this group of people arrived, Zhenjun Dong Qiang grabbed the front forcefully.
The end of the passage was originally empty, but after being caught in this way, it seemed like a curtain was lifted, revealing a hall at the back.
In the center of the hall, a middle-aged man with an elegant temperament was holding a book and reading it carefully.
After being alarmed, the middle-aged man raised his head and looked at the group of uninvited guests with a wry smile on his face.
"Brother Dong Qiang, when will you change your impatience? You broke my magic circle forcibly, and I have to spend time repairing it slowly."
"Brother Shushan, I will never change my impatience in this life." Zhenjun Dong Qiang said in a low tone.
"If I hadn't kept giving him a sure word, he wouldn't have come to my door like this."
That middle-aged man was also the True Lord Yuanshen of the Dark Alliance branch, but he belonged to the third largest faction independent of the two major factions, True Lord Red Pig and True Lord Dong Qiang. He is the leader of that faction and is known as Shushan Zhenjun.
"Brother, it's useless for you to force me. You should know that I have always dealt with principles and will not get involved in the fight between you."
"Brother, please listen to my advice. We are all from the same school, and there are no knots that cannot be untied. One day I will call Brother Red Pig over, and we will sit down together and talk about it. If there is any problem, we will solve it face to face. There is no need. It's so tense, I have to fight you to the death."
"When two tigers fight, one of them will be injured. No matter which side of you suffers casualties, it will be a loss to the organization, and it will only take advantage of outsiders for no reason."
Master Shushan had a sincere expression on his face and persuaded the other party with sincerity.
True Lord Dong Qiang and True Lord White Crow were not moved at all, and True Lord White Crow did not even hide the sarcasm on his face.
"Brother Shushan, you are still too naive. I don't know where you have been since you were so old?"
True Lord Dong Qiang said unceremoniously.
"We and Red Pig's gang have been at odds with each other for a long time, and we have to decide whether to win or die."
"Brother, I have told you about the situation many times. This time, the Dali Dynasty is on our side. If the Red Pig group refuses to surrender, they will only die."
"Brother, because of our many years of friendship, I gave you a hand and asked you to join our side. Give yourself and those who follow you a better future."
Faced with the persuasion of True Lord Dong Qiang, True Lord Shushan still refused as before.
Similar conversations have been held many times, and no one can convince anyone.
"Brother, since you already have a chance to win, you can just take action yourself. Why do you have to drag me along?"
Before True Lord Dong Qiang spoke, True Lord White Crow beside him was already impatient.
"I've told you before that this nerd is too lazy to eat and drink, so you must waste your time nagging him."
True Lord White Crow said sternly: "Bookworm, we want you to say a word now. Will you join us or not?"
Faced with the persecution of True Lord White Crow, True Lord Shushan shook his head helplessly.
True Lord White Crow had already anticipated the reaction of Lord Shushan. He took out a black bead from his body and shook it proudly.
"Nerd, look, what is this?"
Master Shushan saw the bead with an expression of disbelief on his face.
"Isn't this thing lost a long time ago? How come it appears in your hands?"
The proud Lord White Crow did not answer his question, but just tossed the beads in his hand.
Meng Zhang also recognized the bead. Although many years have passed, he still has a deep impression.
Back then, Meng Zhang, who was still a golden elixir monk, was entrusted by Master Black Fox to go deep into the Yuantu Prairie. He risked his life and entered the black market's treasure house in the area controlled by the barbarians outside the territory to retrieve the bead.
After the bead was processed by Master Luoye, Meng Zhang returned it to Master Black Fox.
I really didn't expect that after so many years, I would see this bead here again, and it would still appear in the hands of True Lord White Crow.
With Meng Zhang's current eyesight, even at a short distance, he could still see the purpose of the bead at a glance.
This bead is a special magic weapon used to store the breath of the soul, similar to the soul lamp often used by various sects in the world of cultivation.
