So far, the Mermaid King is the only ally Meng Zhang can rely on.
Of course, if the situation changes and faces external threats, the Mermaid King may not be reliable.
As the leader of the water tribe, the Mermaid King is an alien in the eyes of cultivators.
If at any other time, the cultivators went to strangle the Shui Tribe, it would be a matter of course and no one would say anything.
However, after the demonic disaster broke out in the Daheng Cultivation World, the local cultivation forces were unable to deal with it.
Ziyang Shengzong was hampered by the Dali Dynasty, so he had to temporarily use the power of the Shui Tribe.
Using the Shui Tribe is just a temporary measure. Ziyang Shengzong has never regarded the Shui Tribe as one of its own.
The Mermaid King is a leader with great vision and foresight.
He knew that Junchen Realm had long been dominated by human cultivators, and the living environment for alien races such as the Shui Tribe would become increasingly worse.
For many years, he has been restraining the Shui tribe and trying to avoid conflicts with human cultivators, especially those large cultivators.
At the same time, he is also actively looking for new ways out for the aquatic tribe.
In order to gain more living space, he accepted Zhang Weineng's goodwill and formed a temporary alliance with the Dali Dynasty.
But when the envoys of the Purple Sun Sect came to the door, the Mermaid King decisively betrayed the Dali Dynasty and went to the Purple Sun Sect.
In the eyes of the Mermaid King, the Holy Land Sect is the biggest and best backer.
In fact, joining the Purple Sun Sect has indeed brought many benefits to the Shui Tribe.
Apart from anything else, acquiring a large territory in Jiuqu Province is a huge gain.
Originally, the Mermaid King should have gotten closer to Xiao Qiao and worked hard to curry favor with him.
But in the last monster attack, Xiao Qiao's performance was too unbearable.
This person was selfish and ignored the actual situation. He only gave random orders and caused huge casualties to the Shui Tribe.
If the Mermaid King didn't show any sign and Xiao Qiao was allowed to continue doing this, the Shui Tribe's little capital would not be able to withstand the tossing.
Therefore, the Mermaid King stood on the opposite side of Xiao Qiao.
The Mermaid King opposed Xiao Qiao, but he definitely had no intention of opposing the Purple Sun Sect.
He easily accepted Xiao Liang's handling of the matter without any objection.
Now he is also actively dispatching the water tribe army to complete the tasks assigned by Xiao Liang and clear the area he is responsible for.
Meng Zhang had a very clear view of the Mermaid King's thoughts.
He didn't have much hope for the Mermaid King, but he just hoped that everyone could help each other when fighting monsters.
The mermaid king leads the aquarium army to clear out the responsible area, which cannot be accomplished overnight.
This area is very large, and even if many small teams are separated, it will take a lot of time to clear the entire area.
The Mermaid King was not in a hurry and took action step by step.
The biggest good news is that so far, the teams of water and human cultivators have not discovered the main force of the monsters.
A small group of monsters were discovered, and they were all quickly exterminated.
Meng Zhang couldn't understand the movements of the monster's main force at all.
After Xiang Huanan led an army of monsters to ambush Meng Zhang last time, he neither took advantage of the victory to pursue the expedition and directly attacked the expeditionary army, nor did he change direction and seek trouble for Xiao Qiao.
It stands to reason that after being demonized, Xiang Huanan has integrated most of the monsters in the Daheng cultivator world, and has enough strength to engage in a head-on battle with human cultivators.
Not to mention the current feud between Meng Zhang and Xiao Qiao, even if the two of them work together and lead their men to fight against the enemy, they may not be able to defeat the monster army led by Xiang Huanan.
Since he couldn't figure out the purpose of leading to South China and couldn't figure out his movements, Meng Zhang could only think about it for the time being.
He just hoped in his heart that the main force of the monster army led by Xiang Huanan would never appear in the area he was responsible for.
His team of monks assisted the Shui tribe in clearing a large area, while Meng Zhang stayed in the temporary camp.
While he was slowly warming up the Demon-Conquering Mirror, he was waiting for the latest news from all parties.
About half a month later, Meng Zhang received a message from Yang Xueyi, asking him to go there in person, saying that he had something important to discuss with him.
Yang Xueyi is now the sole general of Taiyi Sect, and Meng Zhang does not dare to neglect her requests.
Meng Zhang just felt a little strange in his heart. What kind of important events could not be discussed in the communication device, but had to go and talk face to face.
The Mermaid King has not encountered any trouble for the time being.
Meng Zhang has the Void Cauldron in hand and can quickly teleport through space. Even if he goes out for a trip, it won't waste much time.
Meng Zhang explained to the accompanying Taiyi Sect monks, activated the Void Cauldron, and teleported away.
Ever since Yang Xueyi led the army of monks to leave the area where Maple Leaf Mountain City was located, she had been marching forward with great success, rapidly advancing towards the location of the expeditionary army.
Because we didn't encounter a large number of monsters along the way, we just encountered many scattered monsters and small groups of monsters.
The army of monks eliminated the monsters very quickly, without much delay in their journey.
In this not-so-long period of time, Yang Xueyi led the army of monks to advance two to thirty thousand miles.
If it weren't for spending time consolidating newly captured areas, building more strongholds, etc. Maybe she has led an army of monks to join forces with Meng Zhang.
With a few efforts, Meng Zhang teleported to a place not far from Yang Xueyi's camp.
Just ahead, Yang Xueyi established a temporary camp to station the army of monks he led.
When he arrived outside the camp, Meng Zhang did not go in. Instead, he used his secret technique to secretly contact Yang Xueyi according to his previous agreement.
Soon, Meng Zhang got a reply from Yang Xueyi through secret techniques, and she and Meng Zhang agreed on a meeting place.
Yang Xueyi was so mysterious, hiding it from the monks under her command, which really made Meng Zhang a little curious.
Meng Zhang arrived at the meeting place on time.
A moment later, Yang Xueyi flew over with a strange monk.
The meeting place was located in a hidden mountain forest, and the surroundings were very quiet.
The monk who was with Yang Xueyi was wearing a black cloak.
This cloak not only covered his figure and appearance, but also his aura.
Even Meng Zhang's spiritual mind could not easily see through this cloak and see clearly what was going on inside.
Judging from the way this man and Yang Xueyi walked together, they were probably friends rather than enemies. Meng Zhang didn't want to be too presumptuous, so he didn't conduct further investigation.
Yang Xueyi brought this person to Meng Zhang.
She first bowed to Meng Zhang in a polite manner and paid homage to her head.
Then, she introduced this fellow monk to Meng Zhang.
This person is the leader of Wanhe Mountain, the giant sect in Daheng cultivation world, Shanji Zhenjun.
While Yang Xueyi was introducing him, the monk took off his cloak, bowed politely to Meng Zhang, and said hello to Master Meng.
Meng Zhang had admired the name of the True Lord of the Mountain Ridge for a long time, but only by chance.
At this moment, I finally saw the real person.
