chapter 145: probe after arriving at the grocery store, meng zhang did not rush to leave. he sent zhang zhanlin out to gather relevant information. zhang zhanlin returned after a while with the latest news. both the liu family cultivators and the green bamboo mountain cultivators who acted in the market were detained. they had provoked the resident elder of twin success valley in singing sand city by attacking their patrolling cultivators. this elder threatened to teach them a lesson and give them a memorable experience. it was said that the news about this incident had been sent back to their respective sects, liu family, and green bamboo mountain. how this matter would develop further was uncertain. meng zhang had an idea and decided not to rush back to taiyi sect for the time being. he asked zhang zhanlin to inquire carefully about the situation between the yang family and green bamboo mountain. alone in a room, meng zhang took out the mirror given to him by jue ying. he infused true qi into the mirror and swiftly wrote on it. he asked jue ying to use the underground information channels to find out the details of how yang family was exterminated by green bamboo mountain. as taiyi sect's strength grew, zhang zhanlin also established more connections in singing sand city. combined with his previous contacts, he was now well-informed. after some effort, zhang zhanlin obtained a considerable amount of information. yang family, under green bamboo mountain, was relatively well-known in the cultivation world. in terms of strength, they were not inferior to the zhao family in the past. the reason for yang family's annihilation by green bamboo mountain was said to be the exposure of an ancestral treasure, which triggered green bamboo mountain's greed. they killed the yang family and took the treasure for themselves. although green bamboo mountain was considered part of the righteous path, they had behaved crudely in this matter, causing criticism from many cultivation forces. twin success valley had also engaged in similar activities before, but they knew how to cover up their actions and save face. in contrast, green bamboo mountain's actions were clumsy and had brought them public ridicule. surprisingly, green bamboo mountain had not completely exterminated the yang family and left some survivors, including yang xueyi and several yang family cultivators who had been hiding in singing sand city. twin success valley, out of spite against green bamboo mountain, had intentionally or unintentionally protected the yang family members. as long as the yang family cultivators stayed in singing sand city, green bamboo mountain couldn't touch them. twin success valley had established the rule against vendettas in the market for hundreds of years and was committed to maintaining order. the information zhang zhanlin brought back was much more detailed than what meng zhang had heard at four seas building. especially concerning the relationship between green bamboo mountain and twin success valley, the information was vivid. the only thing unknown was what specific treasure green bamboo mountain had taken from yang family. "it seems good news travels far, even you've heard about it. flying swan building seems neutral this time, but in reality, they are siding with green bamboo mountain," zhou shengkao replied. "with the relationship between green bamboo mountain and flying swan sect, this isn't the first time they've done such a thing," meng zhang nodded in agreement. "senior shan is quite angry about this, and rightfully so," zhou shengkao said indignantly. he was close to shan ying and shared in his glory and frustration. "in the end, this incident was caused by green bamboo mountain and the liu family acting unjustly," meng zhang concurred. "especially green bamboo mountain, relying on their relationship with flying swan sect, has always been unreasonable, tyrannical, and full of evil deeds." zhou shengkao was a clever fellow and could sense others' thoughts even without reading their minds. with just a few words, he could understand their intentions. "meng, my brother, you didn't come here just to talk about these matters for no reason. what's your plan? tell me," zhou shengkao said. "of course, my plan will benefit you too and help elder shan vent his anger and feel more at ease," meng zhang replied with a smile. after carefully testing the waters, meng zhang brought up the matter of the yang family. before he could finish speaking, zhou shengkao understood his intention. "you want to recruit the yang family cultivators, right? however, that girl from the yang family is very clever. she won't join another cultivation force unless you save the mortal members of the yang family," zhou shengkao, well-informed, understood the situation's ins and outs. "i alone can't accomplish this. i'll need your help," meng zhang said, knowing the importance of zhou shengkao's assistance. [read at /maxnkoga , without ads and support the work.]
