Chapter 845: Helplessness
Originally, someone like True Monarch Grey Mountain, an experienced expert, together with an old fox, would not be easily deceived by Meng Zhang.
However, the two sides had an unequal exchange of information, and True Monarch Grey Mountain's knowledge was limited in many aspects.
Moreover, after True Monarch Grey Mountain sought refuge with the extraterritorial Barbarian Clan, he was already extremely uneasy and burdened with heavy psychological pressure.
He was already regretting his decision.
He shouldn't have obeyed the commands of the Dali Dynasty and betrayed the Jiuqu League, choosing to join the extraterritorial Barbarian Clan.
As a result, he and his sect were now carrying a huge burden and became the public enemy of Human Clan cultivators.
The reason the Dali Dynasty could control True Monarch Grey Mountain was not only because they held the handle of his initial surrender but also because he had been captured alive by powerful individuals from the Dali Dynasty, leaving a deep psychological trauma.
The overwhelmingly powerful and unbeatable image of the Dali Dynasty had deeply ingrained itself in his mind, making him unable to muster any thoughts of resistance, only knowing to passively obey all commands from the Dali Dynasty.
If the Dali Dynasty were to really reconcile with the Jiuqu League, then True Monarch Grey Mountain, as a traitor, would be caught in the middle and have no place to turn.
