Chapter 962: Intelligence
If Taiyi Sect has a powerful backer in the heartland of the Dali Dynasty, it can greatly reduce the threats from the Great Trade Union and others.
Although Meng Zhang is not fond of engaging in these sycophantic activities, as the lord of a sect, there are many things he has to do even if he doesn't like them.
Furthermore, after Shang Jianqing was publicly defeated by Niu Dawei, his display of emotions showed that he harbors deep hatred towards Niu Dawei and, by extension, Taiyi Sect as well.
While Shang Jianqing himself is insignificant, his master, Sword Monarch Ouyang Jian, is famous and holds high prestige.
If such a figure causes trouble for Meng Zhang when he arrives in the heartland of the Dali Dynasty, he would face great difficulties.
In the Cultivation World, encountering stronger adversaries after dealing with weaker ones is quite common. Cultivators who are magnanimous and reasonable are rare.
The information Meng Zhang obtained about the heartland of the Dali Dynasty, such as from the communication stone tablet placed in the Grand Lion Ridge, is likely not complete.
Many of these pieces of information merely scratch the surface and consist of official public disclosures.
He had once offered generous gifts to seek advice from True Monarch Wen Dong, hoping to understand the entanglements among various forces.
