chapter 208: startled changes amidst the unease and anxiety of the crowd, the flying boat team successfully crossed the demon wind gobi and returned to the region west of singing sand city. after bidding farewell to each other, the five flying boats dispersed, each heading back to their respective homes. when meng zhang's flying boat landed in fuzhao valley, many disciples from the sect came to gather around voluntarily. after the flying boat touched the ground, taiyi sect became busy once again. although it had not been long since they left, things at the sect were running smoothly, and no unexpected incidents had occurred. however, sorting through the supplies brought back was a troublesome task, especially the pile of scriptures that filled the hidden scripture pavilion's remaining space to the brim. deep earthspirit general's memory had not fully recovered yet, but he instinctively felt that reading these scriptures would bring significant benefits. he helped meng zhang sort through the scriptures and organized the disciples to transcribe them, creating backups. several classic scriptures were transcribed multiple times and distributed to all the disciples within the sect. meng zhang added a new rule to the sect's regulations, stating that when inspecting the disciples' progress, their studies of these scriptures would also be examined, not just their cultivation bases. in the desolate land of the endless sea of sand, practicality was always emphasized. matters like studying scriptures might not show immediate benefits, and major sects like the flying swan sect and others did not have a strong interest in them. they were seen more as tradition and stories, rather than valuable resources. as a result, not many cultivation forces collected scriptures, and there were few scriptures available for sale in the market. this time, it was only by going to the prosperous great wind city that meng zhang could acquire so many scriptures. with the supplies acquired, taiyi sect wouldn't need to engage in external trade for a long time. however, after the incident with the yellow lotus sect cultivators, they could no longer visit great wind city. if they wanted to engage in trade in the future, they would have to communicate with the qi family of the northern desert through the deadly sea of sand's edge. not long after meng zhang returned to taiyi sect, before he could settle into peaceful days, an unexpected piece of news completely disrupted his tranquil life. a few days earlier, disciples from the forest mountain school had secretly transported white hidden earth ore to be used by guang zhidaoist master, with the help of people from the forest spring watch. however, the flying swan sect had been secretly monitoring them. flying swan sect tracked them all the way, and finally discovered guang zhidaoist master's whereabouts. fei yudaoist master and fei jiangdaoist master of the flying swan sect caught up with him and cornered guang zhidaoist master. although guang zhidaoist master had absorbed a large portion of the heavenly rainfall during the core formation, there was still a significant amount that fell to twin success valley and flying swan sect. with an additional person, there might be one more idea. when meng zhang arrived in singing sand city, xu yishan and lin shenpo from the forest mountain school had already arrived. despite his own severe injuries, xu yishan came to the meeting. to everyone's surprise, guang hong, a daoist from forest spring watch, had also come. forest spring watch must be in great urgency due to guang zhidaoist master being hunted down. as the concerned party, guang zhidaoist master's fate was undoubtedly in grave danger. without waiting for too long, aunt jin and jin qigu from qiaoshou sect, as well as ruan dadao from golden blade sect, hurriedly arrived. after everyone assembled, they wasted no time and directly delved into the main issue: how to deal with the current situation. since flying swan sect had already taken action against guang zhidaoist master, considering their typical approach, they would likely strike fiercely against forest spring watch, completely wiping them out. the other sects allied with forest spring watch would likely face unfavorable outcomes as well. in the face of flying swan sect's potential attack, the group had only two choices: fight or surrender. if flying swan sect made a move, there would be no peaceful resolution. gu tanghai briefly explained the current situation and waited for everyone's response. ruan dadao and aunt jin exchanged glances; they had already discussed the matter on their way here. forest mountain school and forest spring watch were too deeply involved, like locusts tied together by a string, unable to be separated. however, golden blade sect and qiaoshou sect had not offended the flying swan sect; they only had some conflicts with the green bamboo mountain and liu family. moreover, their actions in claiming territory in twin success valley shouldn't cause any issues. if golden blade sect and qiaoshou sect voluntarily surrendered, perhaps they could gain the flying swan sect's forgiveness. even if they had to serve flying swan sect in the future, as long as their sects survived, it would be worth it.
