Just when the atmosphere was at a stalemate, Nanfeng suddenly let out a sigh of relief. He didn't know what he was thinking about, but he actually put down the hand holding the sword hilt.
Looking at Nan Feng's hand hanging down, Zhang Yifeng raised his eyebrows slightly, chuckled, and walked to the table in front of Nan Feng to sit down.
"What, fellow Daoist Nan, aren't you ready to take action against me?"
Zhang Yifeng asked in a low voice without raising his head. The only thing waiting for him was the sound of Nanfeng silently pulling out the seat and sitting down.
"It seems that Fellow Daoist Nan is still angry because of my previous temptation! But this is actually normal. Fellow Daoist Nan will understand it if he walks in the fairy world for a while.
But since fellow Daoist Nan has let down his guard, please prove that you are indeed interested in my proposal."
Zhang Yifeng raised a smile on his lips and asked Nanfeng beside him.
"I still don't know your purpose of joining Yanlong Sect, so I can't make a decision easily."
Nanfeng replied in a cold tone, although he had given up the idea of taking action against Zhang Yifeng, he had no intention of joining forces with Zhang Yifeng in a hurry.
"My purpose? It's very simple. I secretly investigated that the Yanlong Sect was related to the robbery of female cultivators. It happened that a person who was very important to me was probably hidden by the Yanlong Sect.
This is my purpose of sneaking into the Yanlong Sect. I have already told you and it’s up to you whether you believe it or not.”
Zhang Yifeng said calmly, Nanfeng's eyes flashed with disbelief when he heard Zhang Yifeng reveal his purpose so simply.
"Is this your purpose?"
Nanfeng turned his head and looked at Zhang Yifeng with suspicion, as if he was curious about why Zhang Yifeng told him so readily.
"Don't be surprised, fellow Daoist Nan! The reason why I tell you is because you are already under my control.
Now that fellow Daoist Nan knows my purpose, next it’s up to you, Fellow Daoist Nan, to make your choice.
Do you tell the truth and form an alliance with me, or do you die here?"
Zhang Yifeng looked at Nanfeng indifferently, and the seriousness revealed in his words meant that the threats in Zhang Yifeng's words were definitely not lies.
In fact, in this current situation, Zhang Yifeng only has two choices, either to form an alliance with Nanfeng or to kill him here.
After listening to what Zhang Yifeng said, Nanfeng's expression changed and he subconsciously placed his hand on the hilt of the sword again.
However, he realized with horror that he could not move even half a minute, as if there was some invisible force rolling over him.
"Actually, regardless of whether Nan Daoyou can draw the sword or not, this situation has already been achieved. Nan Daoyou's strength is far from mine, so it's better not to ask for trouble.
Now, it only takes one sentence to decide your fate, fellow Daoist Nan."
Zhang Yifeng looked at Nanfeng calmly, waiting for his answer. Zhang Yifeng had expected that such a situation would occur.
Since Nanfeng has chosen to go with him, he must be mentally prepared in advance.
Nanfeng looked at Zhang Yifeng's unfailing expression and knew that the other person had really made a decision in his heart.
If he doesn't answer truthfully, Zhang Yifeng will kill him on the spot once he discovers that he has lied.
In order to trace the events of his family back then, Nanfeng had his hands stained with a lot of blood, but he could still tell whether a person was truly murderous.
"It seems that I have no choice. Since fellow Taoists want to know, it doesn't matter if I tell you. After all, we all have ulterior motives in joining the Yanlong Sect.
My family used to be the first family in the Fire City, but due to the chaos caused by demons from the Demon Cult, a bloody disaster occurred, and I was the only one who managed to escape.
It's just that I have always felt that there is something fishy about the family affairs, and after several rounds of inspections, I actually found some clues.
And that clue points directly to the Yanlong Sect, and I joined the Yanlong Sect just to find out the truth about my family’s evil troubles back then.”
Nanfeng's face was not red and he was out of breath as he spoke. There was no lag in his words, and what he said seemed to be the truth.
Zhang Yifeng also secretly used the ability of the Demon Core to find out the truth of what Nanfeng said. He only got angry when he told this.
Apparently, he recalled the hatred of his family's destruction, and was drawn to his anger.
Now Zhang Yifeng also knew why Nanfeng was so impatient after sensing that there was demonic energy hidden in the inn. He was probably thinking that the demonic cult forces in the inn were related to what happened that year.
"I see, since fellow Taoist Nan is joining the Yanlong Sect in order to thoroughly investigate the family affairs, then our goals are not conflicting.
If Southern Daoist friends are interested, I still want to form an alliance with Southern Daoist friends.
The Yanlong Sect is so large, it is difficult for Nan Daoyou to investigate it alone."
Old God Zhang Yifeng explained to Nanfeng the key points of the alliance between the two, and then he raised his hand and lifted the restrictions on Nanfeng.
The restrictions were released, and Nanfeng immediately regained control of himself. He immediately moved his limbs to confirm that he was no longer restricted.
"I can form an alliance with you."
While Nanfeng moved his body, a sentence suddenly came out of his mouth.
Zhang Yifeng frowned when he heard this and looked at Nanfeng in surprise.
"Don't you, fellow Daoist Nan, feel rude to me for my repeated probing?"
Looking at Zhang Yifeng who was a little curious, Nanfeng replied calmly.
"No, on the contrary, it was precisely because of fellow Taoist's continuous temptations that I thought of forming an alliance with you.
After all, there are secrets to hide between you and me, and fellow Taoist's repeated tests will only make me think that you are thoughtful and are indeed a suitable candidate for alliance.
Besides, fellow Taoist is very powerful, and I will be more confident if you work with me to investigate what happened back then."
Although Nanfeng is young, he never dares to be careless when it comes to family affairs. Just now, Zhang Yifeng was testing him, and he was also probing Zhang Yifeng's thoughts and methods.
After some investigation, Zhang Yifeng's careful thoughts and ruthless methods convinced him that forming an alliance with Zhang Yifeng was definitely not a wrong thing.
"Haha, since Fellow Daoist Nan has said so, do I have any reason to refuse?"
Zhang Yifeng smiled slightly and took the initiative to extend his hand to Nanfeng.
Nan Feng knowingly stretched out his hand and held it with Zhang Yifeng, and the two successfully formed an alliance.
However, just to be on the safe side, Zhang Yifeng secretly placed divine consciousness and black flames on Nanfeng's body when shaking hands with Nanfeng.
If Nan Feng makes any slight movement and wants to expose him, Zhang Yifeng will sense it and instantly detonate black flames to engulf Nan Feng.
But if Nanfeng sincerely cooperates with him, the spiritual consciousness and black flame will not hurt him, but will save Nanfeng's life in a critical moment.
"Since we are now allies, we can still work together to complete this mission.
In addition, the demon sect forces in this inn cannot be easily let go, maybe they can know something about the Nandao investigation back then."
"Thank you, fellow Taoist, but since we are already allies, we haven't asked you for your true name yet?"
Now that he has seen Zhang Yifeng's methods, Nanfeng does not believe that Zhang Yifeng is really an orphan and beggar.
