Chapter 730 Contempt
Originally, Meng Zhang did not expect to take the initiative to contact the Dali Dynasty so quickly.
The business is not about business. If you take the initiative to seek refuge, people may not take you seriously.
However, after learning from the Gu Yue family that many forces in the Jiuqu Alliance began to secretly contact the Dali Dynasty, Meng Zhang became a little anxious.
Especially when Gu Yue Huaidie revealed that the Jade Sword Sect was secretly contacting the Dali Dynasty.
Meng Zhang believes that the Jade Sword Sect may be trying to lure out the unstable sect and family. But if Meng Zhang makes a mistake in his own judgment, is the Jade Sword Sect really preparing an escape route for his family?
It is difficult for Meng Zhang to accurately judge the purpose of a sect like the Jade Sword Sect. It is always good to think more about everything and make more plans.
Previously, Meng Zhang planned for Taiyi Sect to stay in the Jade Sword Sect camp, and the Dark Alliance branch to join the Dali Dynasty. The two forces could secretly communicate and take care of each other.
However, facing the powerful Dali Dynasty, the Jiuqu Alliance became increasingly difficult to resist.
At this time, Meng Zhang decided to change his original plan and contact the Dali Dynasty in advance.
You must also pay attention to the sequence of surrendering yourself. Before the Dali Dynasty officially starts the war against the Jiuqu Alliance, contact the Dali Dynasty and express your willingness to surrender. Compared with the kind of surrendering when the Dali Dynasty has already arrived at the city, the result will definitely be completely different.
of.
Master Luo Ye didn't stay at Taiyi Gate for long before he left on his own initiative.
In addition to bringing back the news that Meng Zhang had promised to help, she also helped Meng Zhang to build a bridge for him to meet the envoys of the Dali Dynasty.
Meng Zhang was not in a hurry, and just waited quietly at the mountain gate for a reply from Master Luo Ye.
While waiting, Elder Beast Wrath from Beast King Mountain sent a trusted disciple to visit Meng Zhang at Taiyi Sect, and brought a letter from Elder Beast Wrath.
As a member of the alliance of three sects, Lao Beast King Mountain has dominated the Hengjue Mountains for many years. Later, it was seized by the Dali Dynasty and killed a large number of disciples. It can be said that the hatred between the two families is as deep as the sea, and there is almost no room for reconciliation.
.
The Jade Sword Sect is the most determined resistance faction within the Jiuqu Alliance and has been calling for an all-out war with the Dali Dynasty.
The remaining monks from the Old Beast King Mountain who moved into the Jiuqu Alliance hit it off with the Jade Sword Sect.
For the Jade Sword Sect, Lao Beast King Shan was the most trustworthy ally when fighting against the Dali Dynasty.
Without the full support of the Jade Sword Sect, the Old Beast King Mountain would not have been able to annex the New Beast King Mountain so easily.
Last time he fought side by side with Elder Beast Wrath, and then secretly helped Elder Beast Wrath purge the opponents of the new Beast King Mountain. Meng Zhang and Elder Beast Wrath had a good relationship.
Although the merged Beast King Mountain did not have much contact with the Taiyi Sect due to the previous relationship with the new Beast King Mountain, Elder Beast Fury was still willing to befriend Meng Zhang and communicated with Meng Zhang through letters from time to time.
Elder Beast Fury is old, and his injuries have not healed. In the last battle with the two True Lords Li Ruiming and Qiu Wanli, although he won a complete victory and successfully killed his opponent, his vitality was still damaged.
In the current state of Elder Beast Fury, every time he loses a lot of vitality, his longevity will also be affected.
The elder Beast Fury, who has only a short lifespan, is now busy building good relationships and making friends with the surrounding Yuanshen True Lords, considering the situation after his death.
After Elder Beast Wrath has passed away, Beast King Mountain will definitely be taken care of by the Jade Sword Sect. However, Beast King Mountain cannot go to the Jade Sword Sect for help in every detail. That will only make the Jade Sword Sect gradually tire of it, and the friendship between the two parties will also be lost.
Getting lighter and lighter.
If Beast King Mountain wants to continue its inheritance, it must mainly rely on its own family. Unless it is absolutely necessary, one cannot easily seek help from the Jade Sword Sect.
Elder Beast Wrath deliberately made friends with Meng Zhang, hoping that Meng Zhang would be able to take care of Beast King Mountain in the future.
The letter Elder Beast Wrath sent this time was to invite Meng Zhang to attend the party.
In three months' time, a number of Yuanshen True Lords will hold a gathering in the northern part of the Jiuqu League. In addition to discussing mysteries and Taoism, exchanging what they have learned, they will also conduct some transactions and exchange knowledge.
Of course, the transactions carried out by monks at the level of True Lord Yuanshen are basically barter, and few people are interested in things like spiritual stones.
Elder Beast Fury knew that Meng Zhang had become a Yuanshen not long ago, and he had always wanted to integrate into the circle of Yuanshen monks.
Now that he heard about this opportunity, he sent someone to notify Meng Zhang.
There is no threshold for participating in that party. As long as you are the True Lord of Yuanshen, you can basically attend.
Although Elder Beast Fury is an outsider, he joined the circle of surrounding Yuanshen monks earlier than Meng Zhang.
First of all, Elder Beast Fury has been a Yuanshen for many years and is a senior Yuanshen True Lord. Although he was born in the Hengjue Mountains, he also has many familiar friends in the Jiuqu League.
Secondly, after Elder Beast Fury came to Jiuqu League, he actively integrated into the local circle of Yuanshen monks.
Relying on some old connections, his actions were relatively smooth and he was easily accepted by the local Yuanshen monks.
Meng Zhang wanted to integrate into the local Yuanshen True Monarch circle because he did not want to be isolated and wanted to have channels and opportunities to communicate with his colleagues.
After receiving the letter, Meng Zhang asked the visiting Beast King Mountain disciple to convey his gratitude to Elder Beast Wrath and made it clear that he would attend the gathering on time.
After sending away the trusted disciples of Elder Beast Fury, Meng Zhang was full of expectations for the gathering three months later.
More than half a month later, Luoye Zhenren came to Taiyimen Mountain Gate again. She told Meng Zhang that the private meeting between Meng Zhang and the envoys of the Dali Dynasty had been arranged.
Then, Master Luo Ye led Meng Zhang away from Taiyimen Mountain Gate, left Yaofeng Gobi, and came to a secret stronghold of the Dark Alliance.
In this stronghold, Meng Zhang met the envoys of the Dali Dynasty.
This messenger's name is Wen Dong, and he is an out-and-out True Lord of Yuanshen.
Wen Dongzhenjun has a gentle appearance, elegant manners, and a scholarly atmosphere. At first glance, he is almost the same as a mortal scholar.
Master Luo Ye did not dare to regard Wen Dong as an ordinary scholar. She respectfully stepped forward to greet him, and then gave a rough introduction to him and Meng Zhang.
After the introduction, Master Luo Ye took the initiative to step aside, leaving space for the two Masters of Yuanshen to discuss slowly.
"You are Meng Zhang, the head of the Taiyi Sect. You are indeed a talented person with a graceful demeanor."
Wen Dong said a few polite words and then got straight to the point.
Wen Dong probably heard about Meng Zhang's intention to surrender from Master Luo Ye.
He was not polite and directly put forward a lot of demands for Taiyi Sect and Meng Zhang.
These demands are not simple. They are treating Taiyi Sect as a subordinate of the Dali Dynasty.
According to Wen Dong's request, when the Dali Dynasty launches a full-scale attack on the Jiuqu League, Meng Zhang will lead the Taiyi Sect to respond to the Dali Dynasty in the north of the Jiuqu League and quickly sweep away the surrounding forces that are still loyal to the Jiuqu League.
If the Jiuqu League goes into full-scale war with the Dali Dynasty, the location of Taiyi Gate can almost be said to be the rear area of the Jiuqu League. Once chaos breaks out in this place, the Jiuqu League will be attacked from both sides.
The Taiyi Sect obeyed the orders honestly and acted according to Wen Dong's orders. After that, they could join the Dali Dynasty and become an immortal cultivating sect under the Dali Dynasty.
Wen Dong made many demands, but gave no promises.
There was no problem for Taiyi Sect to join the Dali Dynasty, but he did not mention the status of Taiyi Sect and the treatment it would enjoy within the Dali Dynasty in the future.
There have long been rumors in the world of cultivation that the Dali Dynasty has always been harsh, even cruel, to the cultivation sects under it.
It’s not like Taiyi Sect has never served as a younger brother to others. After Meng Zhang became the head of Taiyi Sect, Taiyi Sect became vassals of Shuangfenggu, Lin Quanguan, Feihong Sect and other forces.
There are generally rough rules in the world of cultivation for how a cultivation sect treats its vassals. It may be harsh or loose, but there are always certain rules.
However, the way the Dali Dynasty dealt with its subordinate cultivating sects was really too much. They simply treated these cultivating sects as slaves, scolding and driving them at will, without the slightest care.
Meng Zhang contacted the Dali Dynasty early in order to leave a way out for the Taiyi Sect. He had to work hard to gain better status and treatment for the Taiyi Sect.
These requests made by Wen Dong were just asking Taiyi Sect to pay without giving anything in return.
How is it possible for the Taiyi Sect to respond to the Great Li Dynasty and sweep away the surrounding cultivation forces?
I'm afraid that as soon as the Taiyi Sect makes some moves, it will be completely wiped out by the Jade Sword Sect.
The Dali Dynasty did not cooperate at all, let alone send support. Should the Taiyi Sect fight against the Jade Sword Sect alone? Wouldn't that mean the Taiyi Sect's sacrifice would be in vain?
Meng Zhang initially thought that Wen Dong made such harsh demands to facilitate future bargaining between the two parties.
But as soon as he opened his mouth to speak, he was interrupted by Wen Dong. Hearing Wen Dong's tone, there was no room for discussion on these requirements, and Taiyi Sect must implement them to the letter.
Meng Zhang finally understood that Wen Dong didn't take Taiyi Sect seriously at all, but wanted to use Taiyi Sect as cannon fodder.
Sure enough, what he was busy with was not business. This time he took the initiative to contact the Dali Dynasty, and Meng Zhang made a bad move.
Originally, after hearing about the negotiation between Wen Dong and the Dark Alliance branch from Master Luo Ye, Meng Zhang thought Wen Dong was a sensible person and relatively easy to communicate with.
Now that I have personally contacted him, I know that this person is arrogant and has no ambitions. He does not look down on Taiyi Sect or Meng Zhang at all.
Thinking about it, the Dark Alliance branch itself is very powerful, and there is also the Dark Alliance headquarters behind it. No matter how powerful the Dali Dynasty is, they cannot underestimate such a force.
Since the Dark Alliance branch is so powerful, it is natural that it should enjoy some favorable conditions.
In contrast, Taiyi Sect is nominally a Yuanshen sect. Regardless of the history and foundation of the sect, it is far from enough, and there is only one Yuanshen True Lord in the sect, Meng Zhang.
Yuanshen sects such as Taiyi Sect are not in short supply in the Great Li Dynasty, so naturally they will not be taken seriously.
Of course, the cannon fodder delivered to your door is useless.
