The Dali Dynasty did not bring Jiuqu Province into its rule for a long time.
The official power of the Dali Dynasty was mainly to maintain the ruling order in Jiuqu Province.
As for the development and management of Jiuqu Province, many aspects have relied on the power of large merchants such as Datong Merchant Alliance.
As the leader of these large merchants, the Datong Merchant Alliance naturally has the most resources and the best information.
Many of the official so-called secrets of the Dali Dynasty are transparent to the senior officials of the Datong Merchant Alliance.
Zhenjun Shanghan is also a thoughtful person, and he spends a lot of time to inquire about many official situations of the Dali Dynasty.
This is not out of any malicious intent, but the instinct of a businessman looking for more business opportunities.
Meng Zhang took the map handed over by Zhenjun Shanghan and glanced at it quickly.
Meng Zhang remained silent and continued to stare at Lord Shang Han.
Meng Zhang chuckled lightly as he saw Lord Shang Han bending over and lowering his head in a nervous manner, sweating profusely.
"You don't have to act."
"As long as this map is useful, you will pass this time."
"But if I don't find the target, I will come again. At that time, I won't be so easy to talk to."
After Meng Zhang finished speaking, he took Xu Mengying and left.
To be honest, Meng Zhang has not yet figured out how to deal with the big foreign merchants like the Datong Merchant Alliance.
If Meng Zhang and most of the Taiyi Sect monks had followed their original intentions, this group of guys who were submissive on the surface but kept making small moves in private should have been completely eradicated long ago.
But from the perspective of the sect's interests, it's best not to act in such an extreme way.
As I get older, I have been presiding over the Taiyi Sect for longer and longer periods of time. Meng Zhang also believes more and more in the saying of "leaving a tightrope in everything so that we can meet each other easily in the future".
He had no choice but to abandon the Dali Dynasty and completely surrender to the Purple Sun Sect.
This is not because he is loyal to the Dali Dynasty, but he simply does not want to take sides too early.
According to what Xiao Liang told him back then, twenty years were coming, and Ziyang Shengzong should really take action against the Dali Dynasty.
Ziyang Shengzong's plan is about to be launched, and it is not certain who will win and who will lose between them and the Dali Dynasty.
Although most monks in the cultivation world, including Meng Zhang, feel that as the Holy Land sect that has ruled the Junchen world for many years, it will not lose to the Dali Dynasty.
But in Meng Zhang's heart, he didn't want the Ziyang Holy Sect to win so soon.
The victory of Ziyang Holy Sect was too easy, which was not in the interests of Meng Zhang and Taiyi Sect.
It would be best for Ziyang Shengzong to engage in a long and protracted war with the Dali Dynasty as before.
Especially after the feud with the Xiao family monks, Meng Zhang also had a lot of bad feelings towards the Ziyang Holy Sect.
From this we can see the true face of these holy land sects.
What's more, in the world of cultivation, various rumors about these holy land sects have never been stopped.
Even Granny Liansi, a powerful void returner, had hinted to Meng Zhang more than once that the Purple Sun Sect was not worthy of trust.
Under such circumstances, it would be best for Meng Zhang not to completely break up with a powerful organization like the Datong Merchant Alliance, which had important influence in the Dali Dynasty.
Meng Zhang weighed the pros and cons and made a new decision.
If Zhenjun Shanghan and his gang understand this, they will no longer secretly cause trouble with the Taiyi Sect. He could be lenient and keep them for the time being.
If they are stubborn and insist on fighting the Taiyi Sect to the end, then they can't blame Meng Zhang for being ruthless.
Meng Zhang took Xu Mengying and used space teleportation to quickly travel around Jiuqu Province, slowly exploring various strongholds marked on the map as quickly as possible.
With the kind of person Wendong Zhenjun is, it is definitely impossible for him to leak his detailed whereabouts.
Even if he had to rely on the power of large merchants such as Datong Merchant Alliance, he would not completely trust them.
Even when facing allies, a minimum of caution must be retained. This is the way for cultivators to survive in the world of cultivation.
What Zhenjun Shang Han can do is to mark all the places where Zhenjun Wen Dong and others are likely to appear.
Judging from the ease with which he took out this map, this guy is indeed a well-rounded businessman, and has long been prepared to deal with various situations.
If Meng Zhang found the whereabouts of Lord Wen Dong through this map this time, Lord Shang Han would have handed a huge clue into Meng Zhang's hands.
The places marked on the map are widely distributed, almost covering the entire Jiuqu Province.
Meng Zhang activated the Void Cauldron, almost ignoring the long distance, and quickly searched many places.
Although no trace of the target has been found yet, it is not nothing.
He captured the remaining monks in several secret strongholds.
From their mouths, they learned that both Wendong Zhenjun and Hengdao Zhenjun, who had been killed by him, had been in these strongholds.
These seemingly useless clues will provide certain help when Meng Zhang performs the magic of heaven.
When Meng Zhang once again used Dayan Divine Calculation to calculate the whereabouts of Zhenjun Wen Dong and the others, the more clues he had in his hands, the greater the help he would get, and the more satisfactory results he would be able to calculate.
That's right, after the last fruitless confrontation with Tianji Technique, Meng Zhang did not give up.
If you can't find any trace of the enemy using conventional means, then you have no choice but to use Dayan Shen again.
Probably because he killed many monsters in the Daheng cultivation world, especially powerful monsters like Xiang Huanan.
Meng Zhang used Dayan Divine Calculation twice before to calculate the enemy's whereabouts, but there was no counterattack from heaven, and there was no movement in the heavenly calamity.
After this matter is settled, Meng Zhang returns to the Daheng Realm of Cultivation, where he will kill more monsters and obtain more heavenly merits.
In fact, not only Meng Zhang, but also those monks who participated in killing a large number of monsters will receive more or less heavenly merits based on their contribution.
It's just that most monks are ignorant and unaware of it.
In fact, even ordinary Yuanshen monks and Tianji masters do not have much feeling for the existence of heavenly virtues.
Of course, even if they can't feel the heavenly merits coming down, they don't know that they possess the heavenly merits. However, the merits of heaven will still work as usual when they are supposed to work.
God is selfless and will not make any distinction in these matters.
Those monks who have made great achievements in killing monsters and quelling evil disasters will receive more heavenly merits.
Their luck will be high and everything will go smoothly in the future, until their heavenly merits are exhausted.
Meng Zhang now thinks back to the fact that when Xiao Liang was so indulgent and partial to the junior Xiao Qiao, he must have known about the existence of heavenly virtues and had the idea that the wealth would not flow to outsiders.
Xiao Qiao's temperament changed drastically, and he wanted to gain more heavenly merits regardless of his friendship with Meng Zhang.
The merits of heaven are not omnipotent, but they are of great use to monks and are worth countless monks fighting for.
