chapter 144: unyielding from zhi ke's account and the conversation between liu fenglang and yang xueyi just now, meng zhang finally understood. yang xueyi doesn't reject joining other cultivation forces, but she insists on rescuing the mortals of the yang family first. she doesn't solely focus on her own future but is willing to walk a more difficult path for the sake of her mortal relatives. this girl is both affectionate and righteous, with good character, and her principles align well with meng zhang's intentions. for once, meng zhang felt a moment of compassion, and if possible, he wanted to help this young lady. however, by doing so, he would come into conflict with green bamboo mountain, which made him hesitate. though twin success valley has always looked down upon green bamboo mountain, they were only entitled to do so because they were on a par with them. green bamboo mountain, after all, was a cultivation sect of comparable standing to twin success valley, and taiyi sect's strength was far from matching that of green bamboo mountain. helping others is a good deed, but if one overestimates their abilities and gets involved beyond their capacity, it would be foolish. while meng zhang pondered over this matter, he left four seas building and arrived on the streets outside. meng zhang entered a nearby alley, planning to cut through to the grocery store and have a chat with zhang zhanlin. but as he reached the entrance of the alley, a group of people blocked his way. a bunch of cultivators dressed in green bamboo mountain's uniforms had surrounded yang xueyi. liu fenglang, with two followers, was standing aside, watching the scene unfold. "yang xueyi, be obedient and come back with us. if you cooperate, perhaps the elders might spare your life. but if you continue to be stubborn, no one will be able to save you," a green bamboo mountain cultivator said menacingly. yang xueyi looked at the green bamboo mountain cultivators in front of her, her face full of hatred and her eyes reddening with anger. "your green bamboo mountain framed my yang family for unfathomable crimes, causing the massacre of my entire family. this deep-seated hatred will be etched in my heart forever, and i will never compromise with you." the green bamboo mountain cultivator's face turned grim. "at such a young age, you've fallen into the evil path and refuse to repent. today, my green bamboo mountain will uphold justice and eliminate the likes of you, the demonic and wicked." the green bamboo mountain cultivator was about to make a move when liu fenglang stopped him. "wait, don't be so hasty. let me say something," liu fenglang, a mere refining qi stage cultivator, spoke, but his father was an elder in the foundation building stage of the liu family. the green bamboo mountain cultivator had to give him some face. "this liu young master, if your father were here, he might have some face. but as for you, become a foundation building stage cultivator first before speaking," said the twin success valley cultivator disdainfully. "the face of this young master is more significant than the buttocks of a foundation building stage cultivator," a sarcastic voice echoed from somewhere. liu fenglang was completely enraged. no longer caring about the situation, he immediately attacked in the direction of the voice. his fierce sword aura struck the dark corner, but to his surprise, there was no one there, only shattered bricks and stones flying around. "insolent!" "how dare you take the initiative." several twin success valley cultivators were both shocked and angry and tried to subdue liu fenglang and his followers. liu fenglang and his men refused to be captured without a fight and launched a counterattack. a few green bamboo mountain cultivators, who had a good relationship with liu fenglang and had always disliked twin success valley's cultivators, also joined the fray. however, this was singing sand city, twin success valley's most important territory. before things escalated further, the news reached the market through a formation. twin success valley's foundation building stage cultivators quickly arrived and easily suppressed the cultivators from liu family and green bamboo mountain. meng zhang, who had been hiding on the sidelines all this time, left quietly before the twin success valley foundation building stage cultivator arrived. he had informed the twin success valley patrolling cultivators about the situation and later provoked liu fenglang secretly, pushing him to act. meng zhang concealed his actions, making sure not to reveal his involvement to the others. his purpose in doing all this was merely that he couldn't stand liu fenglang and the green bamboo mountain cultivators, without any other ulterior motives for now.
