Chapter 146: The Preparation Begins
As Meng Zhang was about to finish speaking, Zhou Shengkao shook his head repeatedly, "No, absolutely not. Although Single Bo might have been offended a little, he wouldn''t resort to open confrontation with Twin Sess Valley and Green Bamboo Mountain."
"I didn''t ask you to get involved directly, nor did I ask Twin Sess Valley and Green Bamboo Mountain to take action. I want Taiyi Sect to step in and recruit Yang Family cultivators to help rescue the people of Yang Family. Big brother, you just need to provide some assistance secretly," Meng Zhang exined quickly.
"Furthermore, if Green Bamboo Mountain troubles Taiyi Sect in the future, I''ll request Twin Sess Valley to offer more protection," Meng Zhang added.
Zhou Shengkao listened to Meng Zhang''s words and asked, "How certain are you that you can sessfully save the mortal members of Yang Family?"
"At least 80% certain," Meng Zhang replied confidently, patting his chest.
Zhou Shengkao pondered for a while but remained silent. Meng Zhang read his thoughts and knew that he was persuaded but still couldn''t make up his mind.
Eventually, Zhou Shengkao decided to leave Meng Zhang waiting and departed on his own. Meng Zhang patiently waited for about an hour before Zhou Shengkao returned.
Even without reading Zhou Shengkao''s thoughts, Meng Zhang could tell from his expression that the matter was likely settled. "Brother Meng, go ahead and do this, but you must handle it well. After rescuing the mortal members of Yang Family, bring all of them back to Taiyi Sect. If Green Bamboo Mountain seeks revenge on you in the future, Twin Sess Valley will never stand idly by," Zhou Shengkao said firmly.
With Zhou Shengkao''s promise, Meng Zhang finally felt relieved. The matter was now stable.
After leaving Zhou Shengkao''s ce, Meng Zhang followed the information provided by him and went directly to the residence of Yang Family cultivators in Singing Sand City.
Six Yang Family cultivators were still alive, hiding in a secluded courtyard in Singing Sand City. As the masters of Singing Sand City, Twin Sess Valley was aware of this. When Green Bamboo Mountain sent cultivators to investigate, they were deliberately hindered by Twin Sess Valley.
Yang Xueyi, in particr, took the initiative to go to Four Seas Building to hire loose cultivators, which exposed their location and led to the entanglement with Liu Fenng. As long as the Yang Family cultivators remained in this small courtyard, Green Bamboo Mountain couldn''t do much to them. Especially after the recent events, Twin Sess Valley would not allow Green Bamboo Mountain cultivators to cause trouble in Singing Sand City.
Upon finding Meng Zhang at their doorstep, the Yang Family cultivators were very cautious. Among them, Yang Xueyi, despite only being at the Refining Qi Sixth Layer of cultivation, was the one in charge.
"Miss Yang, I am Meng Zhang, the Sect Master of Taiyi Sect," Meng Zhang introduced himself.
"I remember you; I saw you in Four Seas Building. You were there when Liu Fenng was bothering me," Yang Xueyi said, keenly recognizing Meng Zhang.
Meng Zhang started discussing their situation and a possible solution with Yang Xueyi. After a lengthy conversation, they reached an agreement. If Meng Zhang could rescue the mortal members of Yang Family from Green Bamboo Mountain, Yang Xueyi would lead all of them to join Taiyi Sect.
Before finalizing the deal, Meng Zhang secretly used Mind Reading to gauge the thoughts of Yang Family cultivators. He found them to be good-hearted individuals, especially Yang Xueyi, who showed strong determination, exceptional talent in talisman craft, and was a rare talent. Taking some risks to recruit her was definitely worth it.
With the agreement in ce, Meng Zhang left Singing Sand City and returned to Taiyi Sect. The Nine Pce Windfire Banner,missioned from Earthfire Sect, had already been sessfully refined and brought back to the sect by Meng Zhang.
He selected nine mid-stage Refining Qi disciples within the sect and had them practice and familiarize themselves with thebined magic tool following a secret technique. After some time, they became proficient in using it.
Wen Qiansun, one of the disciples, reported to Meng Zhang that they were ready for realbat. Meng Zhang instructed them to continue practicing until they mastered the use of thebined magic tool because they would soon need to use it.
Meng Zhang also contacted Jue Ying and arranged to meet near Firewell Market. After arriving, he exined his detailed n to her. Then, the two of them headed to the ck market.
As a rmended client of Jue Ying, Meng Zhang had higher privileges within the ck market. They approached a person in charge and made their requests.
Meng Zhang first entrusted the ck market to investigate relevant information about Green Bamboo Mountain. They didn''t need core information, only peripheral details, which the ck market easily epted.
While waiting for the investigation results, Meng Zhang stayed in Firewell Market with Jue Ying. After a few days, they received the report from the ck market. Fortunately, it didn''t contain any unexpected surprises, and Meng Zhang felt prepared for the uing events.
He made a series of requests to the ck market, with the most important one being to hire two Foundation Building stage cultivators. They didn''t need to fight Green Bamboo Mountain''s Foundation Building stage cultivators head-on, just to engage and hold them at critical moments.
With the vast resources and divine ability of the ck market, Meng Zhang''s client status, and Jue Ying''s influence, meeting Meng Zhang''s requirements wasn''t a problem, though it cost him a significant amount of spirit stones.
After paying the deposit, Meng Zhang was left with empty pockets, and the rest of the spirit stones were lent to him by Jue Ying. Unexpectedly, she turned out to be quite wealthy.
Once the n''s details were thoroughly discussed and deemed suitable, Meng Zhang gathered his followers, preparing to take action.
