Sect Master’s Immortal Journey

Chapter 669: Coincidence

Extreme Sword Spirit General had followed Meng Zhang for many years and understood his character very well. Seeing Meng Zhang's posture, he took a few steps and blocked Xu Mengying's path.

"My Lady Saint, shouldn't you give us an explanation for what happened today?" Meng Zhang spoke insolently, with a hint of playful smile on his face.

Xu Mengying didn't reply immediately. Instead, she removed the veil that had been covering her face for years, revealing her true appearance.

A breathtakingly beautiful face, capable of captivating all living beings, appeared before Meng Zhang.

Xu Mengying smiled enchantingly, and her gentle voice echoed in Meng Zhang's ears.

"Sect Master Meng, why bother nitpicking over trivial matters? You are such a prominent figure; how can you be so preoccupied with such things?"

This was the first time in the many years Meng Zhang had known Xu Mengying that he had seen her true face.

Meng Zhang was taken aback for a moment, wondering if she was trying to seduce him.

Did she think that a beautiful appearance would entice him?

Meng Zhang, a cultivator at his level of cultivation base, except for a few anomalies, could resist the allure of appearances. In his eyes, even the most beautiful face was nothing more than fleeting clouds. A good appearance was no more valuable than a pile of spirit stones.

Meng Zhang looked at Xu Mengying with an appreciative and pure gaze, paying no attention to the compliments she gave him but instead getting straight to the point.n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

"Miss Xu, spare me the pleasantries. I only need one thing from you: how will you settle the accounts from earlier?"

In the Cultivation World, there was a custom of addressing female cultivators as "Immortal" regardless of their actual cultivation level. Although this was a form of respect, Meng Zhang didn't quite like it.

Calling a female pig "Immortal" or a Refining Qi stage cultivator "Immortal" seemed too cheap. They were even less worthy than the prostitutes in brothels.

Meng Zhang believed that only Gold Core Daoist Masters who were above average in appearance could be truly addressed as "Immortal."

Xu Mengying initially met these criteria, but now he needed to pressure her, so he didn't want to be overly polite.

Xu Mengying seemed unbothered by Meng Zhang's pressing attitude and maintained a smile on her face.

"Sect Master Meng, we are all part of the same group; there's no need to be so formal. As a sect master and a righteous person, it's your duty to help fellow cultivators and eliminate demons. Why should others have to demand explanations from you?"

Meng Zhang didn't want to engage in a verbal duel with a mere woman and had no desire to waste any more words. His expression grew increasingly gloomy, ready to take action at any moment.

He harbored no thoughts of cherishing and admiring beauty; he only wanted to satisfy his desire for revenge.

Similarly, Extreme Sword Spirit General began secretly circulating their power, ready to cooperate with Meng Zhang.

Capturing Xu Mengying wouldn't be an easy task, given her displayed combat prowess. Besides, she was the Holy Lady of the Yellow Lotus Sect, and she undoubtedly had some hidden aces up her sleeve.

Just as Meng Zhang and Extreme Sword Spirit General were on edge, preparing to make a move, a sharp gust of wind sound came from a distance.

A flying boat appeared in the sky and quickly flew towards this location.

In an instant, the flying boat arrived above the three individuals. Daoist Master Mountain Garden and Daoist Master Smiling Lotus appeared at the bow of the flying boat.

Seeing Meng Zhang and the Yellow Lotus Sect's Holy Lady together, and recalling Meng Zhang's recent intentional disturbance to create an opportunity for Xu Mengying, Daoist Master Mountain Garden suddenly realized and felt he understood the situation.

"Meng Zhang, you indeed have a connection with that woman. This time, you've been caught red-handed, and you have nothing to say. Even if this matter reaches your master, Jin Li True Monarch, you won't escape," Daoist Master Mountain Garden spoke harshly.

Daoist Master Smiling Lotus's words were not as harsh, but they were equally blunt.

"Meng Zhang, you interfered in our sect's internal affairs and meddled in matters you shouldn't have. You have violated a major taboo in the Cultivation World and have offended the Nine-Bends Fascination Alliance rules."

Facing the accusations from the two Daoist Masters, Meng Zhang's face turned livid. He didn't want to explain, and he knew explanations wouldn't help at this point. The situation had already gone beyond what mere words could solve.

Daoist Master Mountain Garden's words infuriated him deeply, and he even harbored a killing intent.

After all, he had been a sect master for so many years and had decent cultivation skills to restrain his temper. He coldly gazed at Xu Mengying.

Yue Yuan Zhenre obviously followed this woman's lead, and now he was in a difficult situation, implicated by her.

Daoist Master Mountain Garden wanted to order an attack and capture the three of them directly.

However, Daoist Master Smiling Lotus hesitated. On the one hand, Xu Mengying held a high position as the Yellow Lotus Sect's Holy Lady, so he was reluctant to make a move against her. On the other hand, Meng Zhang was involved in this matter, and an immediate attack might trigger another large-scale war with the Taiyi Sect.

Yellow Lotus Sect's East River Branch now occupied a vast territory in the Endless Sea of Sand, adjacent to the Taiyi Sect. If they went to war, the East River Branch would undoubtedly be the frontline and would be used as cannon fodder.

While Daoist Master Smiling Lotus hesitated, the Gold Core Daoist Masters on the flying boat revealed themselves.

Shortly after arriving at Tiger Mountain City, they had rented a Third Rank flying boat. Given Yellow Lotus Sect's vast resources, they didn't care about the expenses.

Although Xu Mengying managed to temporarily shake off the pursuing Yellow Lotus cultists with Meng Zhang's help, Yue Yuan Zhenre had received guidance from True Monarch Mountain Peak before departure. Xu Mengying's subordinates had long placed some means on her.

This flying boat carried this group of people and followed Xu Mengying's trail from Tiger Mountain City until they caught up with her here.

As for running into her and Meng Zhang together, it could only be seen as destiny, leading them to capture them.

Upon Daoist Master Mountain Garden's order, he and the other Gold Core Daoist Masters made their move.

With the enemy vastly outnumbering them, both Meng Zhang and Xu Mengying knew they couldn't foolishly fight head-on at this point.

Just a moment ago, Meng Zhang and Extreme Sword Spirit General had been looking at Xu Mengying as enemies, and now they were joining forces against a common enemy.

Although they hadn't communicated beforehand, the three of them coordinated seamlessly, like the best comrades and companions.

A radiant light filled the air as Meng Zhang used his Divine Ability "Sun and Moon Divine Light" to temporarily shield their opponents' perception.

Extreme Sword Spirit General released a barrage of sword energy, enveloping all the enemies, forcing them to divide their attention.

With a gentle wave of Xu Mengying's hand, an inexplicable force emerged, causing the hostile group to feel dizzy and disoriented.

Taking advantage of the momentary suppression of their opponents, Meng Zhang and the others flew into the sky and headed towards the distance.

Before leaving, Meng Zhang casually threw a thunderball towards the flying boat in the air.

It was a thunderball he had crafted using a secret technique when he was not a Gold Core True Monarch. He had begged quite a few from her back then, and after many years of use, he still had a few left.
