Chapter 538 Xihefang City
After the incarnation of True Lord Tianzhu and Master Jinli left the Little Devil's Cave, it didn't take long for Master Jinli to leave the Sea of Death and visit the predetermined targets with the order of True Lord Tianzhu.
The first person Jin Li visited was Taiyi Gate.
But when she arrived at Xiongshiling, the leader Meng Zhang happened not to be at the door.
Niu Dawei, who was responsible for presiding over the daily affairs of Taiyi Sect, knew that his weight was not enough, so he specially invited Yang Xueyi, who was in retreat, to receive Master Jin Li together.
It was a bit inconvenient not to see Meng Zhang. However, Yang Xueyi and Niu Dawei were able to make the decision in the Taiyi Sect. She explained her purpose of coming and left in a hurry.
Meng Zhang's absence at Xiongshi Ridge was not to avoid Master Jin Li, but because he really had important matters to go to the Jiuqu Alliance.
After receiving the explanation from Master Jin Li, Niu Dawei quickly informed Meng Zhang to return as soon as possible through the sect's channels.
At this time, Meng Zhang had already arrived in Xihefang City.
This time Meng Zhang came to the Jiuqu League because he was invited by Master Luo Ye to deal with some of the affairs of the Qin family back then.
When Qin Hongying was hired by Meng Zhang as the guest minister of Taiyi Sect, in addition to asking for many benefits from Taiyi Sect, she also asked Meng Zhang and Master Luo Ye to make an inner demon oath to try their best to preserve the inheritance of the Qin family.
Qin Hongying died in Ten Thousand Peaks a long time ago, but the Qin family is still alive and well. Meng Zhang and Master Luo Ye must still try their best to ensure that they fulfill their oath.
Qin Hongying, an old woman, has always been arrogant and domineering. Relying on her strong cultivation, she acted tyrannically and took things by force. She offended many forces and made many enemies.
It was fine when she was alive, and she was enough to protect her family. But after her death, those enemies came to her door one after another, overwhelming the Qin family without Jin Dan Zhenren.
Of course, the main purpose of most of these so-called enemies is not revenge, but to tear off a piece of fat from the Qin family.
The Qin family was the Jindan family back then, and relied on Qin Hongying's power to occupy many interests. Now that Qin Hongying is gone, of course, all the interests must be divulged.
In the Jiuqu League, such situations are very common. Many families and sects have experienced ups and downs due to this.
When the Qin family was unable to resist, the first thing they thought of was to seek help from Master Luo Ye.
Although Meng Zhang never complained to Master Luo Ye about what Qin Hongying did after she became the guest minister of Taiyi Sect, Master Luo Ye still heard about it.
Moreover, Luoye Zhenren promised to preserve the Qin family's inheritance as much as possible, but he never promised to preserve the Qin family's original power.
Regarding the Qin family's call for help, Master Luoye did not refuse, but just dealt with it and slowly delayed the time.
The Taiyi Sect has grown in popularity in recent years, and its reputation has slowly spread to the Jiuqu League.
However, after Qin Hongying's death, Taiyi Sect stopped delivering various materials promised to the Qin family.
The Qin family, which has lost its only Jindan master, dares to be angry but dare not speak out against a Jindan sect like Taiyi Sect, and simply does not dare to continue to entangle.
Now that the family is facing a crisis, while the Qin family is asking Qin Hongying for help, they also ask someone to pass the news to the Taiyi Sect, and are willing to pay some price in exchange for Meng Zhang's help.
Before receiving the Qin family's request for help, Meng Zhang received a letter from Master Luo Ye.
When Meng Zhang interacted with Master Luo Ye, he felt that she was a kind senior and a close Taoist friend.
In fact, how could a person from an organization like the Dark Alliance be a good man and woman? When the time comes, she can eat people without spitting out their bones.
Now that the Qin family is in trouble, it's an opportunity. She doesn't have to dirty her hands and can make a fortune, so why not?
Originally, Master Luo Ye could handle this matter by himself, but he thought that the Taiyi Sect had paid a lot of money in order to hire Qin Hongying, a guest minister.
Qin Hongying simply called Meng Zhang to compensate him.
Taiyi Sect now has two golden elixir masters, Yang Xueyi and Weak Water God General Yiming and Yinyan. Even if Meng Zhang is not in the sect, they still have the power to protect themselves. Moreover, the surrounding situation has been stable recently, and there have been no new ones in the Death Sand Sea.
Variety.
Meng Zhang thought about it for a moment, then accepted Master Luo Ye's kindness and set off for the Jiuqu League.
The Qin family's territory is located in the southeast of the Jiuqu League. It is not a core area. But compared to the endless sand sea, it is already a rare and blessed land.
Meng Zhang first arrived at Dafeng City and inspected the local layout of Taiyi Sect, including various commerce, stronghold construction, etc., and then went all the way south. After several twists and turns, he came to Xihefang City and met up with Luoye Zhenren.
Xihefang City got its name because it is close to a river called Xihe. The name is Xihe, but it is actually a magnificent river. As a tributary of Jiuqu River, the river flows continuously and meanders all year round.
Xihefang City was originally a city jointly established by several surrounding Jindan forces, and it was located on a third-level spiritual vein.
Because of its strategic location and efficient management, it has long become the most prosperous place in the surrounding area.
Originally, the Qin family also occupied a certain share in Xihefang City, and was one of the managers of Xihefang City.
However, after Qin Hongying's death, the Qin family was not only expelled from the management of Xihefang City, but also lost all interests in Xihefang City.
This was just the beginning of the Qin family's bad luck. Many surrounding forces used various excuses to conflict with the Qin family, including the Jindan forces.
In the Jiuqu Alliance, there is a basic order in the world of cultivation. Tragedies such as the overt annihilation of a family generally do not happen.
However, cultivators have various methods, many secret spells, and some methods to secretly plot against their opponents.
In recent times, the Qin family has lost too many masters due to various reasons.
Some were defeated in public fights with others; some couldn't stand the provocation of others and took the initiative, but were defeated by their opponents and were killed; some even disappeared directly, with neither alive nor dead...
The Qin family has almost lost all of its foundation-building cultivators. If this continues, a group of outside bandits might break into the Qin family that day and start killing and looting.
Even if the Qin family will not be wiped out because of this, it will completely decline and be unable to recover.
The higher-ups of the Jiuqu League will not care about the fighting at the bottom. Even many radical monks believe that this kind of law of the jungle, survival of the fittest, can maintain the vitality of the Jiuqu League.
After Meng Zhang and Luo Yezhenren met, they had a brief discussion and came up with a rough plan.
